SD POV – Migration(Brown Field Implementation) : ECC to S/4HANA

Hello all, welcome to this blog on SAP Cloud Integration and EDI. Business partners in many B2B projects still exchange data in classic EDI formats, while modern applications speak XML or JSON. Bridging these formats reliably is one of the common challenges for integration developers working with SAP CPI.In this article, we will go through a full, hands-on example of receiving an XML message over HTTPS, converting it to EDI, enriching it with a Groovy script, and finally delivering it to the receiver via email. The aim is to provide you with a clear, end‑to‑end view of how to design […]

I recently took the SAP Certified – SAP Generative AI Developer (C_AIG) exam in SAP’s new, task-based format. Compared to the traditional proctored, MCQ-style certification (I previously passed the SAP Certified Associate – Back-End Developer – ABAP Cloud ), this format felt refreshingly real: open-book, hands-on, and aligned with how we actually work: consulting documentation and credible sources to solve practical tasks. The difficulty was fair and thoughtfully designed. However, I faced a serious technical issue in the final minutes: the “Confirm Completion” button did not respond despite multiple attempts, leading to an immediate fail result likely due to the system not […]

IntroductionI recently hit a really specific edge case while building a PDF feature for our SAP UI5 app. We were using pdfmake, and honestly, everything looked great during standard testing. But then the backend sent over some real-world data—specifically these massive, continuous strings of text—and the whole layout just fell apart.Even though we had set fixed column widths, the table completely ignored them. The text refused to wrap, spilled right over the borders, and basically ruined the document structure. It’s one of those issues you don't usually catch until you throw messy, non-standard data at your code. In this post, […]

How do you compare 100 pieces, 50 cartons, and 6 pallets when deciding whether a truck is full?In SAP Logistics Management, the answer is Normalized Quantities.Instead of counting pieces or boxes, LGM converts everything into pallet footprint equivalents—the one metric that actually matters for transportation:How many pallet positions does this cargo occupy on the truck floor?Because pallet standards differ by region (e.g., Euro-pallets in Europe, US pallets in North America), the same product and quantity can require a different number of pallet positions depending on where it ships from. LGM automatically selects the correct regional standard (EPA, UPA, etc.), converts […]

The integration landscape within the SAP ecosystem has undergone a significant shift in Q4 2025. For years, the industry narrative suggested that IDOCs were relics of the past, destined to be replaced entirely by SOAP Web Services, later one with OData and REST APIs.

How to overcome this situation? 

Content 1. IntroductionIn SAP MDG scenarios, master data is governed centrally and replicated to connected systems using web services via the Data Replication Framework (DRF).
