A company needs to integrate three types of data into SAP Sustainability Control Tower: financial data from their on-premise SAP S/4HANA system, operational data from a custom third-party application, and qualitative employee satisfaction survey results. Based on the architecture described, which integration strategy accurately reflects how SCT would handle this diverse data landscape?

Choose the correct answer.

All data must first be consolidated in SAP Datasphere before being sent to SCT via a single OData interface.

Financial and operational data would be uploaded via CSV files, while survey results are integrated via an API.

S/4HANA data would use the cloud connector and a BTP destination, the third-party app would use the inbound OData API, and survey results would be entered manually.

All three data sources would be integrated using the standard integration for SAP S/4HANA Finance
