Achieving principal propagation to backend while using SAP Integration suite

295 Views

Hi,

We are working on configuring the scenario "SAP ERP Purchase Requisition Approval at Line Item level including validation and release using SAP Build Process Automation or SAP Workflow Management" as explained in below documentation link.

https://api.sap.com/package/purchaserequesitionapprovalandrelease/overview

Limitation:

As per our business requirement and cyber security requirement, we need to propagate the user who initiates the workflow in SAP BTP to backend ECC.


Below is the high level data flow:


BTP Workflow request ---------> Calls HTTP Destination configured to Cloud Integration IFLOW in Cloud Foundry SAP Integration Suite --------> IFLOW with Standard Cloud Integration package for "Purchase Requisition Approval and Release" -------> Calls RFC Destination with principal propagation to SAP ECC ------> Cloud Connector (RFC SNC with Principal propagation) ------> Calls the relevant function module in SAP ECC backend.

Query:

  • We would like to understand the authentication type to be used between BTP Workflow request and SAP Integration suite IFLOW which will support the propagation of user to backend ECC.

Note: As per our requirement, we can't use "Basic authentication" with a system user.

Regards,

Nalla
