SAP PIPO
Rating: 7 out of 10
IncentivizedUse Cases and Deployment Scope
NetWeaver Process Integration is being used as an integration layer between SAP applications is our landscape. It's being used by our department only. PO has built-in integration with SAP, and that why it's our preferred choice to integrate SAP applications. It's also being used as a gateway to exchange files on file-based integrations.
Pros
- Integration between SAP applications
- Supports Active directory integration.
Cons
- Has limitations on consuming different types of Queues. Like JMS queue.
- Has limitations on datatypes and size of the message in the queue
- Have limitations in connecting to Kafka. This can be solved with 3rd party adapters
- Have limitations on processing large files.
Likelihood to Recommend
I would recommend using NetWeaver Process Integration with an SAP application only. SAP ISU/ECC can integrate with the PO very well to interact with non-SAP systems. It's best suited for extracting data from SAP systems into flat files, encrypt it, and sFTP to any 3rd party vendor.
