Unify Sales & ERP: Seamless Quotewerks SAP Integration
Automate your quote-to-cash cycle, synchronize master data, and empower sales with real-time SAP insights directly in Quotewerks – powered by a modern iPaaS.
The Disconnect Between Quoting and Enterprise Resource Planning
Without a robust integration, Quotewerks and SAP operate in isolated silos, leading to significant inefficiencies, data discrepancies, and delayed business processes. This disconnect hinders sales velocity and strains operational resources.
-
Manual Quote-to-Order Process: Sales orders must be manually re-entered into SAP once a quote is accepted in Quotewerks, leading to delays and transcription errors.
-
Outdated Product & Inventory Data: Quotewerks sales reps often work with stale product catalogs, incorrect pricing, or unavailable inventory, resulting in inaccurate quotes and customer dissatisfaction.
-
Fragmented Customer Master Data: Customer and contact information becomes inconsistent across Quotewerks, SAP, and other systems, leading to duplicate records and a fragmented view of your customers.
-
Slow Reporting & Inaccurate Forecasts: Lack of real-time data flow makes it difficult to get an accurate, consolidated view of sales performance and pipeline, impacting strategic decision-making.
-
Compliance & Audit Risks: Manual processes increase the risk of non-compliance with pricing policies and audit trails become harder to maintain across disparate systems.

Quotewerks SAP Integration: Technical Architecture & Data Flow
Our integration solution leverages a modern iPaaS as the central orchestration layer, ensuring secure, scalable, and real-time data exchange between Quotewerks and SAP. We utilize an event-driven architecture for critical updates and robust API connectivity for comprehensive data synchronization.
Data Flow Steps
Secure Connection Establishment: Utilize dedicated API keys/OAuth 2.0 for Quotewerks and SAP BTP/Cloud Connector with OAuth 2.0/certificate-based authentication for SAP, managed securely in the iPaaS vault.
Event-Driven Triggers: Configure Quotewerks webhooks for real-time events (e.g., Quote Status Change) and SAP Event Mesh or OData service polling for SAP events (e.g., Material Master updates).
Data Extraction: iPaaS connectors retrieve relevant data entities (Quote, Customer, Product from Quotewerks; Sales Order, Business Partner, Material from SAP) using their respective APIs.
Data Transformation & Mapping: A visual mapping canvas within the iPaaS transforms data schemas, handles data type conversions, and applies business rules to ensure compatibility between systems. AI-assisted mapping accelerates this process.
Validation & Enrichment: Data undergoes validation against predefined rules and can be enriched with additional information from other systems before being sent to the target application.
Target System Update: iPaaS invokes the appropriate target system API (e.g., SAP Sales Order API, Quotewerks Product API) to create, update, or retrieve records.
Error Handling & Monitoring: Automated retry mechanisms, dead-letter queues, and real-time alerts ensure data integrity and prompt issue resolution.
Logging & Auditing: Comprehensive logs provide an audit trail for all data transactions and integration activities.
Data Touchpoints
"The integration architecture features the iPaaS as a central hub. Quotewerks events (like 'Quote Accepted') trigger workflows in the iPaaS, which then processes and transforms the data before creating corresponding records (e.g., Sales Order) in SAP. Conversely, updates in SAP (e.g., 'Material Price Change') are captured by the iPaaS and synchronized back to Quotewerks. Master data (Customer, Product) flows bi-directionally, ensuring consistency. All data movement is secured via encrypted channels and managed through robust API authentication."

Integration Use Cases
Explore how the integration behaves in real business scenarios, with clearly defined steps, outcomes, and execution patterns.
Automated Quote Acceptance to SAP Sales Order
Streamline the critical 'quote-to-order' handoff. When a sales representative marks a quote as 'Accepted' in Quotewerks, the integration automatically creates a corresponding Sales Order in SAP SD, populated with all relevant customer, product, pricing, and line item details. This eliminates manual data entry, reduces processing delays, and ensures immediate initiation of fulfillment processes.
Integration Steps:
- 0 Quotewerks Quote Status changes to 'Accepted'.
- 1 iPaaS triggers on Quotewerks webhook event.
- 2 iPaaS retrieves Quote, Customer, Contact, and Line Item data from Quotewerks.
- 3 Data is transformed and mapped to SAP Sales Order structure (e.g., Sold-To, Ship-To, Material IDs, quantities, net values).
- 4 iPaaS invokes SAP Sales Order Creation API (OData or BAPI).
- 5 SAP Sales Order ID is written back to the Quotewerks Quote for tracking.
Business Outcome
Faster order fulfillment, reduced order entry errors, improved cash flow, enhanced customer experience.

API Endpoints & Data Logic
Technical details for developers and architects.
⚡ Transformation Logic
- Status Mapping: Quotewerks 'QuoteStatus' = 'Accepted' maps to SAP 'Sales Order Type' = 'OR' (Standard Order) and initial 'Processing Status'.
- Product ID Conversion: Map Quotewerks 'ProductID' to SAP 'MaterialID'. Handle cases where product IDs may differ (e.g., cross-reference table lookup).
- Customer Mapping: Map Quotewerks 'CustomerID' to SAP 'SoldToParty' (Business Partner ID). Ensure associated 'ShipToParty' is also correctly identified.
- Pricing Calculation: Apply any necessary currency conversions or discount re-calculations to align Quotewerks 'UnitPrice' and 'Discount' with SAP 'NetPrice' and pricing conditions.
- Date Formatting: Convert date formats (e.g., 'YYYY-MM-DD' from Quotewerks to SAP's required date format).
- Default Values: Assign default 'Plant', 'StorageLocation', 'SalesOrganization', 'DistributionChannel' in SAP based on business logic if not explicitly provided by Quotewerks or derived from customer master.
🛡️ Error Handling
- SAP Sales Order Creation Failure: Due to invalid Material ID, missing customer data, or insufficient credit limit in SAP.
- Quotewerks Product Update Failure: Due to invalid SKU format or API authentication issues.
- Master Data Duplication: If deduplication logic fails or conflicting updates occur simultaneously.
- API Rate Limit Exceeded: Leads to temporary processing delays and requires retry logic.
- Network Connectivity Issues: Temporary outages between iPaaS and either Quotewerks or SAP.
- Data Validation Errors: Quotewerks data not conforming to SAP's strict business rules (e.g., incorrect date format, non-existent plant).
