Introduction to SAP Communication and Integration Technologies

This live session will equip learners with a foundational understanding of SAP system integration, focusing on how SAP platforms communicate with other SAP instances and third-party systems. The session will explore core interface technologies and show how data and business processes are exchanged across distributed environments to support seamless interoperability.

After participating in this live session, you will be familiar with key SAP integration technologies, including Remote Function Calls (RFCs) for technical connectivity, Business Application Programming Interfaces (BAPIs) for standardized access to business objects, and Application Link Enabling (ALE) for cross-system process integration using IDocs. By the end, learners will be able to differentiate between technical and functional integration methods, configure system connections, and understand SAP’s approach to secure, distributed data exchange.
