Connect BigCommerce and SAP Business by Design

Connecting BigCommerce and SAP Business by Design for a company could allow for automated transfer of order, customer, and inventory data between the e-commerce platform and the ERP system. This could help reduce manual data entry, improve data accuracy, and support more efficient management of sales, fulfillment, and financial reporting processes.

You can build this integration on the System2System platform. We design the connection between BigCommerce and SAP Business by Design around the way you work — not as an off-the-shelf connector, but to fit your systems.

Why connect BigCommerce and SAP Business by Design?

A company operating both BigCommerce and SAP Business by Design could benefit from connecting these systems to enable the exchange of key business data. Without such a connection, staff may need to manually enter orders, customer details, or inventory updates in both platforms, which increases the risk of errors and consumes significant time. This manual process can also lead to discrepancies between the two systems, such as mismatched inventory levels or inconsistent customer records, making it difficult for teams to trust the data they use for decision-making. Furthermore, delays in updating records can result in decisions being made based on outdated information, potentially impacting sales, fulfillment, and customer satisfaction. If a connection were established, it could allow for the transfer of data such as sales orders, product information, customer profiles, pricing, and inventory status between BigCommerce and SAP Business by Design. This could help ensure that both systems reflect accurate and current information, supporting smoother business operations and reducing administrative overhead. However, what data can actually be exchanged depends on what each system exposes through its API, and is determined per situation.

How System2System builds an integration

Connectors

We connect to each system through the interface it offers — an API, a database, a file exchange or a webhook — and handle authentication, rate limits and retries.

Mapping

Fields rarely line up one to one. We map and transform the data so both systems receive it in the shape they expect.

Workflow

We define what triggers an exchange, in which direction data flows and which system takes precedence when the two disagree.

Monitoring

Every exchange is logged. Failures are flagged and can be replayed, so nothing disappears without anyone noticing.

What can actually be exchanged?

That depends on what BigCommerce and SAP Business by Design make available through their APIs, on the licences and modules in use, and on the version each system runs. Which records are synchronised, in which direction and how often, is something we determine together before any work starts.

We are happy to look at your specific situation and tell you what is feasible — including when the answer is that it is not.
