How to send data to SAP backend system?

[Former Member]

Hi,

I am using GP for offline interactive forms.

After my approv/reject step, I want to extract data from an interactive form and send the data back to SAP back end system (SAP ERP).

What are the options available in GP to implement this?

Thanks

Hi Sundar,

To create that in SAP you may use a RFC or directly BAPI. To do that you may use a standard CallableObject like External Service under Service group in Create Callable object template. Another approach would be to publish RFC as WebServices and consume that by Web Service standard Callable Object. It will depend of how you will design your whole process.
