One of the great advantages of SAP Business One is that integration has long been an integral part of the product. This applies inside and outside the SAP product family. With the improvements of the integration framework (B1iF) 2.0, new and significantly improved and, above all, much faster integration options are available. SAP B1i becomes the SAP Business One Integration Hub.
Know-how required
A wide range of SAP solutions for legal compliance, reporting, Integration of Subsidiaries, IoT and Collaboration is based on the SAP B1i integration framework. Based on this, partners offer vertical or horizontal solutions to cover complex requirements or to implement customer-specific solutions.
So far, it has always been necessary for technically oriented consultants to develop solutions on this platform or to connect systems based on templates. Such integration scenarios usually require a lot of knowledge about the requirements for processes/platforms and also technical know-how.
SAP Business One Integration Hub - expanded and simpler
Many customers and partners are increasingly expecting a standard solution from SAP that at least covers basic requirements but is easier to set up.
With the new SAP Business One Integration Hub, a new level of abstraction has been added. This layer significantly reduces technical complexity and makes it easier for partner or customer consultants to set up ready-made SAP integration scenarios live with just a few clicks, even without technical knowledge.
The aim is to provide scenarios that are easy to set up and ready to use for the benefit of partners, developers and customers. A significant acceleration in integration projects is achieved.
