Connect SAP and Icecat

Connecting SAP and Icecat could allow a company to transfer product information, such as detailed specifications and images, from Icecat into SAP. This could reduce manual data entry and help maintain accurate, up-to-date product catalogs within SAP, supporting purchasing, inventory management, and sales processes.

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

Why connect SAP and Icecat?

A company that operates both SAP and Icecat could benefit from enabling data exchange between these systems to improve operational efficiency and data accuracy. When systems are not connected, users may have to enter the same information in multiple places, which increases the risk of errors and consumes additional time. Over time, records in each system can diverge, leading to inconsistencies that undermine confidence in reporting and decision-making. For instance, if product information in SAP does not match what is available in Icecat, teams may make decisions based on outdated or incomplete data. Common types of data that could be exchanged between an ERP system such as SAP and a product content provider like Icecat include product attributes, specifications, and digital assets such as images or datasheets. This exchange could help ensure that product catalogs in SAP reflect the most current and accurate information available from Icecat, supporting better purchasing, sales, and inventory management. However, the exact data that can be shared and how it can be synchronized would depend on the features and access provided by each system's API, and would need to be determined for each specific implementation.

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 and Icecat 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.
