Connect SAP Business by Design and IWD

Connecting SAP Business by Design and IWD for a company using both could allow data to be transferred between the systems, reducing manual entry and supporting more efficient workflows. Such a connection could help ensure that information such as financial data, inventory, or project details is consistent and up to date across both platforms.

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

Why connect SAP Business by Design and IWD?

A company operating both SAP Business by Design and IWD could benefit from connecting these systems to ensure that data remains consistent and up to date across the organization. Without a connection, staff may need to enter the same information in both systems, which increases the risk of errors and consumes unnecessary time. Manual processes can lead to records in one system diverging from those in the other, making it difficult to maintain a single source of truth for business operations. This can result in decisions being made based on outdated or incomplete data, which affects efficiency and reliability. If a connection were established, it could enable the exchange of data such as customer records, sales orders, inventory levels, or financial information, depending on what each system is designed to handle and expose. The specific data exchanged would be determined by the company’s operational needs and the technical capabilities of each system’s interface. Ultimately, what 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 SAP Business by Design and IWD 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.
