S/4HANA Cloud to Salesforce Product Migration

(3 reviews)

home

This template moves a large set of product objects from SAP S/4HANA Cloud to Salesforce. Product objects are upserted so that migration can be executed multiple times without worrying concerns about duplicating information. This template uses MuleSoft's batching capabilities to move a large set of data easily and transparently from SAP S/4HANA Cloud into Salesforce.


Dependencies

  • Anypoint platform Enterprise Edition subscription or a trial account.
  • An entitlement to the Anypoint connector for SAP S/4HANA Cloud.

Use Case

This Anypoint template serves as a foundation for setting an online sync of products from SAP S/4HANA to Salesforce.

Use this template if would like to sync products from SAP S/4HANA to Salesforce in manner of one time synchronization by browse toting the HTTP endpoint. The template will fetch all products by specified criteria and send it to Salesforce to create/update products there.

Requirements have been set not only to be used as examples, but also to establish a starting point to adapt your integration to your requirements.

As implemented, this template leverages the Mule batch module.

The batch job is divided into Process and On Complete stages.

The integration is triggered by the HTTP endpoint to fetch all the SAP S/4HANA Products suitable for migration.

Fetched products are passed to the batch as input. In the batch the product is fetched from Salesforce by its product code.

If it exists, its product identifier is resolved against Salesforce. If it doesn't exist, then new product number is fetched from Salesforce.

Afterwards every such product from SAP S/4HANA is sent to Salesforce where it is asynchronously updated or created.

Finally during the On Complete stage the template logs output statistics data into the console and send a notification e-mail with the results of the batch execution.

API Calls

There are no particular considerations for this template regarding API calls

Customize It!

This brief guide provides a high level understanding of how this template is built and how you can change it according to your needs. As Mule applications are based on XML files, this page describes the XML files used with this template. More files are available such as test classes and Mule application files, but to keep it simple, we focus on these XML files:

  • config.xml
  • businessLogic.xml
  • endpoints.xml
  • errorHandling.xml

config.xml

This file provides the configuration for connectors and configuration properties. Only change this file to make core changes to the connector processing logic. Otherwise, all parameters that can be modified should instead be in a properties file, which is the recommended place to make changes.

businessLogic.xml

Functional aspect of the template is implemented on this XML, directed by one flow responsible of executing the logic.

For the purpose of this particular template the mainFlow just executes the Batch Job which handles all the logic of it.

This flow has Error Handling that basically consists on invoking the On Error Propagate Component defined in errorHandling.xml file.

endpoints.xml

This file contains the endpoints for triggering the template and for retrieving the objects that meet the defined criteria in a query. You can execute a batch job process with the query results.

errorHandling.xml

This file handles how your integration reacts depending on the different exceptions. This file provides error handling that is referenced by the main flow in the business logic.
