Break down data silos, automate critical workflows, and gain real-time visibility across your BNG operational systems and SAP ERP with our advanced iPaaS solution.

The Challenge

The Challenge: Disconnected Operations Between BNG and SAP

Many organizations leverage BNG for specialized operational processes like detailed order management, inventory control, or specific payment reconciliation, while relying on SAP for core ERP functions such as financial accounting, logistics, and master data. Without seamless integration, this dual-system approach leads to significant inefficiencies and risks.

  • Manual data entry between BNG and SAP for sales orders, inventory, and financial transactions.
  • Delayed or inconsistent data leading to inaccurate reporting and poor decision-making.
  • Risk of human errors, duplicates, and data quality issues across critical business entities.
  • Lack of real-time visibility into inventory, order status, and financial positions.
  • Slowdowns in order fulfillment, invoicing, and financial close processes.
  • High operational costs due to labor-intensive reconciliation and troubleshooting.

BNG to SAP Integration: Technical Overview

Our iPaaS provides a robust, secure, and scalable framework for integrating BNG with SAP. This involves leveraging the best available APIs from both systems, orchestrating complex workflows, and ensuring data integrity through advanced mapping and validation.

Data Flow Steps

API Connectivity: Establish secure connections to BNG's RESTful APIs (OAuth 2.0/API Keys) and SAP's OData services (S/4HANA Cloud) or RFC/BAPIs (ECC via SAP Cloud Connector).

Event & Data Capture: Utilize BNG webhooks (`/api/v1/webhooks/subscribe`) for real-time event capture (e.g., new sales order, inventory update). For SAP, leverage OData change tracking, SAP Event Mesh, or scheduled polling of relevant tables/views for updates.

Data Transformation & Mapping: Ingest data from the source system, apply schema transformations, data type conversions, and enrichment using the iPaaS's visual mapping canvas. AI-assisted mapping suggests optimal field connections.

Business Logic & Validation: Implement conditional logic, lookup tables, and custom validation rules (e.g., credit checks, inventory availability, GL account validation) to ensure data quality before posting to the target system.

Workflow Orchestration: Design multi-step workflows that can involve multiple API calls, human approvals, and branching logic. For example, creating a Sales Order in SAP, then updating BNG with the SAP Sales Order ID.

Error Handling & Monitoring: Configure automated retry mechanisms, dead-letter queues for failed messages, and real-time alerts. Centralized dashboards provide visibility into integration health and performance.

Deployment & Lifecycle Management: Promote tested integrations from Dev to QA to Production environments with version control and rollback capabilities.

Data Mapping

Key Entities & Data Mapping: BNG and SAP

A successful BNG-SAP integration relies on precise mapping and transformation of core business entities. Our iPaaS provides a visual, low-code interface for this, augmented by AI for intelligent suggestions and validation, ensuring data consistency and integrity.

Customer / Business Partner

Synchronizes customer records from BNG (often originating from eCommerce/CRM) to SAP Business Partner (with Customer role) or SAP ECC Customer Master. Essential for sales orders, invoicing, and unified customer view.

BNG Fields

CustomerID (BNG Primary Key) ExternalID (for CRM/eCommerce sync) CompanyName FirstName LastName Email BillingAddress (Street, City, State, Zip, Country) ShippingAddress (Street, City, State, Zip, Country) PaymentTerms CreditLimit

SAP Fields

BusinessPartnerID (SAP S/4HANA Primary Key) Customer (SAP ECC Primary Key) Name (Name1, Name2) SearchTerm Address (StreetName, CityName, PostalCode, Country) EmailAddress PhoneNumber CustomerGroup SalesOrganizationData (SalesOrg, DistrChannel, Division) CompanyCodeData (CompanyCode, ReconciliationAccount)

Mapping Notes

BNG's `CustomerID` or `ExternalID` maps to a custom field in SAP for cross-referencing. `BillingAddress` and `ShippingAddress` require parsing into SAP's structured address fields. `PaymentTerms` needs to be mapped to SAP's payment terms configuration. AI can suggest parsing and mapping complex address structures.

eCommerce Order-to-Cash Automation

Seamlessly transfer new sales orders from your eCommerce platform into BNG, then orchestrate their journey through inventory allocation, shipment, and finally, financial posting and invoicing in SAP. This ensures immediate order processing and accurate revenue recognition.

Integration Steps:

  1. 0 Customer places order on eCommerce platform.
  2. 1 iPaaS captures order, creates/updates Customer in BNG via `/api/v1/customers` and Sales Order via `/api/v1/sales-orders`.
  3. 2 BNG allocates inventory, updates `Inventory Item` and `Shipment` status.
  4. 3 iPaaS synchronizes BNG Sales Order and Customer to SAP S/4HANA (via `/sap/opu/odata/sap/APISALESORDERSRV/ASalesOrder` and `/sap/opu/odata/sap/APIBUSINESSPARTNER/ABusinessPartner`) or SAP ECC (via `BAPISALESORDER_CREATEFROMDAT2`).
  5. 4 SAP processes delivery, goods issue, and generates Invoice (SAP SD).
  6. 5 iPaaS synchronizes SAP Invoice back to BNG for customer communication and payment tracking.
  7. 6 Payment gateway confirmation recorded in BNG `/api/v1/payments`, then synchronized to SAP FI (via `/sap/opu/odata/sap/APIJOURNALENTRYSRV/AJournalEntry` or `BAPIACCDOCUMENTPOST`).
