SAP customers can now use the SAP Business Connector to interface SAP and non-SAP
software. The SAP BC leverages the power and flexibility of XML to seamlessly
integrate their key business processes with those of their customers, partners and
suppliers for enhanced efficiency and improved cost-effectiveness.
The Business Connector is SAP's open interface for communication over the Internet.
The SAP BC communicates through Remote Function Calls (RFC) with the R/3 System
and it converts the RFC format alternatively into XML or HTML. HTTP/HTTPS is used
as a log for communication with the outside.
The SAP BC can receive both synchronous calls (BAPI calls) and asynchronous calls
(RFC) and can forward them to a pre-specified target. Inbound calls are supported as
well. Furthermore, it is possible to convert IDOCs into structured XML documents. The
SAP BC contains certain mapping and target determination services. Additional
processing can be easily integrated in the form of JAVA modules.
