The Catena-X Data Ecosystem is a collaborative initiative aiming to create a standardized and secure platform for exchanging data across the automotive industry's value chain. This platform is particularly valuable for managing and improving sustainability efforts. By integrating with Catena-X, companies can share crucial data related to their products' environmental footprint, including materials used, manufacturing processes, and transportation details. This fosters transparency, allows for collaborative sustainability improvements, and ultimately strengthens the entire industry's commitment to environmental responsibility.
Integrating with Catena-X Data Ecosystem
Objective
After completing this lesson, you will be able to set up the technical connection to Eclipse Data Centre (EDC).
Overview
Integrate with Catena-X Network
SAP Sustainability Data Exchange allows you to exchange data with partners through the Catena-X network. To set up the channel, you first need to create three destinations in the SAP Business Technology Platform (BTP) subaccount that holds the SAP Sustainability Data Exchange application. Then, you create the channel in your SAP Sustainability Data Exchange application and reference the created destinations in your configurations.
Note
To start exchanging data through this channel, you need to maintain your own Business Partner Number (BPN) in the Manage Company Profile application and maintain the BPNs of your partners in the Manage Business Partner application.
