Data Mapping

Key Entities & Intelligent Mapping between Sage 100 and SAP S/4HANA

Effective integration hinges on precise mapping and transformation of core business entities. Our iPaaS provides intelligent tools to bridge the semantic and structural differences between Sage 100's specific modules and SAP S/4HANA's comprehensive data model.

Customer / Business Partner

Synchronizing customer master data is paramount for consistent sales, billing, and reporting. Sage 100's AR_Customer maps directly to SAP S/4HANA's central Business Partner entity, requiring careful handling of roles.

Sage 100 Fields

CustomerNo CustomerName AddressLine1 City State AccountStatus CreditLimit EmailAddress SalespersonNo

SAP S/4HANA Fields

BusinessPartner BusinessPartnerCategory FirstName LastName OrganizationName EmailAddress PhoneNumber StreetName CityName PostalCode Country TaxNumber CustomerRole (FLCU00)

Mapping Notes

Sage 100's `CustomerNo` needs to be mapped to an external ID field in SAP S/4HANA's Business Partner. The `BusinessPartnerCategory` and specific roles (e.g., `FLCU00` for customer) must be assigned correctly in S/4HANA. Address standardization is crucial.
