Technical Integration Details: Bridging ByDesign and Oracle EBS

Our integration solution provides robust, secure, and scalable connectivity between SAP Business ByDesign and Oracle EBS, leveraging a modern iPaaS to abstract complexity and orchestrate data flows. We utilize a hybrid integration approach to connect ByDesign's cloud APIs with EBS's diverse on-premise interfaces.

Data Flow Steps

Connectivity Layer: Securely establish connections to SAP ByDesign via its OData and SOAP web services (HTTPS/TLS 1.2+). For Oracle EBS, deploy an on-premise iPaaS agent to connect to EBS's database (PL/SQL APIs, Open Interfaces), XML Gateway, or custom REST/SOA services, often via VPNs or private links.

Authentication & Authorization: Implement OAuth 2.0 for ByDesign API access with short-lived tokens. For EBS, utilize dedicated integration users with least privilege, potentially leveraging FND_USER credentials for PL/SQL or token-based authentication for modern REST services. All credentials are securely managed in a secrets vault.

Data Extraction: For ByDesign, leverage OData services for querying and webhooks for event-driven notifications. For EBS, use PL/SQL APIs for real-time reads/writes, or stage data into Open Interface tables (e.g., `GLINTERFACE`, `APINVOICES_INTERFACE`) for bulk processing via concurrent programs.

Transformation & Harmonization: The iPaaS's visual mapping canvas is used to transform data schemas between the two ERPs. This includes complex data type conversions, value lookups, aggregation, and conditional logic. AI-assisted mapping accelerates this process and suggests optimal transformations.

Business Logic & Validation: Implement business rules within the iPaaS workflow (e.g., currency conversion, tax calculations, customer deduplication logic) and validate data against both ByDesign and EBS specific requirements before insertion/update. AI helps in anomaly detection and pre-validation.

Error Handling & Monitoring: Implement automated retry mechanisms with exponential backoff for transient errors. Persistent errors are routed to a dead-letter queue for manual review, with automated alerts to relevant teams. A centralized dashboard provides end-to-end visibility and audit trails.

Deployment & Governance: Integration flows are version-controlled and promoted through Dev, QA, and Production environments using CI/CD pipelines. Sandbox environments are used for rigorous testing and validation.

Data Touchpoints

SAP Business ByDesign: Sales Order, Customer, Product, Supplier Invoice, Payment, Employee, Project, General Ledger Entry, Purchase Order, Inventory.
Oracle EBS: Sales Order, Customer (TCA), Item (Product), Invoice (AR/AP), Payment (AR/AP), Purchase Order, Supplier (Vendor), General Ledger Journal, Employee.

"The integration architecture typically involves a central iPaaS acting as an orchestration layer. SAP Business ByDesign (Cloud) connects to the iPaaS via OData/SOAP APIs and webhooks. Oracle EBS (On-Prem/Hybrid) connects via a secure iPaaS agent, utilizing PL/SQL APIs, Open Interfaces, and potentially custom REST/SOA services. Data flows bi-directionally, with the iPaaS handling all data transformation, validation, and business logic. Key workflows include master data sync, O2C, P2P, and financial consolidation."

Data Mapping

Core Entities & Intelligent Data Mapping for ByDesign-EBS Integration

Achieving seamless integration requires precise mapping and transformation of key business entities between SAP Business ByDesign and Oracle EBS. Our iPaaS provides granular control and AI assistance to ensure data integrity and consistency for the most critical entities.

Customer

Master data for business partners. Essential for sales, invoicing, and accounts receivable across both ERPs.

SAP Business ByDesign Fields

ID (ByDesign Customer ID) Name Street City Country Email PhoneNumber AccountType SoldToPartyID ShipToPartyID

Oracle EBS Fields

Party ID (TCA) Customer Account ID Customer Name Account Number Address (Bill-to, Ship-to) Contact Information Payment Terms Customer Category

Mapping Notes

ByDesign's 'Customer ID' often maps to EBS 'Customer Account ID' or a cross-reference. Address mapping requires careful alignment of street, city, state, country fields. Deduplication logic is crucial, potentially using ByDesign's 'ID' as a primary key or external reference, and leveraging AI for fuzzy matching on 'Name' and 'Address'.

Real-time Customer & Sales Order Synchronization

Automatically synchronize new and updated customer accounts and sales orders from SAP Business ByDesign to Oracle EBS. This ensures that sales teams working in ByDesign (or connected systems like CRM/eCommerce) have their orders processed downstream in EBS for fulfillment and financial recording, or vice versa if EBS is the primary order capture system.

Integration Steps:

  1. 0 Trigger: New Sales Order or Customer created/updated in SAP Business ByDesign (e.g., from an eCommerce platform or CRM).
  2. 1 Capture: iPaaS listens for ByDesign events (webhooks) or polls OData endpoints (`/sap/byd/odata/v1/cust/SalesOrderCollection`, `/sap/byd/odata/v1/cust/CustomerCollection`).
  3. 2 Transform: Data is mapped and transformed from ByDesign's schema to Oracle EBS's `OEORDERPUB` and `HZCUSTACCOUNT_V2PUB` API structures. AI-assisted mapping suggests field alignments.
  4. 3 Validate: iPaaS performs pre-validation against EBS business rules; AI flags potential data quality issues (e.g., missing mandatory fields, invalid customer ID).
  5. 4 Create/Update: iPaaS calls Oracle EBS REST endpoints (`/webservices/rest/OEORDERPUB`, `/webservices/rest/HZCUSTACCOUNT_V2PUB`) to create/update Sales Orders and Customers.
  6. 5 Confirm/Error: EBS response is processed; success status or errors are logged, and notifications are sent. Any EBS-generated IDs are synced back to ByDesign.
