One of the great advantages of SAP Business One is that integration has long been an integral part of the product. This applies both within and outside the SAP product family. With the improvements to the integration framework (B1iF) 2.0, new and significantly improved and, above all, much faster integration options are now 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 realise customer-specific solutions.
Until now, it has always been necessary for technically orientated consultants to develop solutions on this platform or connect systems based on templates. Such integration scenarios usually require a great deal of knowledge about process/platform requirements and technical expertise.
SAP Business One Integration Hub - enhanced and simpler
Many customers and partners increasingly expect SAP to provide a standard solution that at least covers the basic requirements but is easier to set up.
A new abstraction layer has been added to the new SAP Business One Integration Hub. 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.
