Data Import Using the Integration Service

The integration service directly connects to on-premise systems to extract and securely pipe data from source systems to IBP target tables via secure HTTP (HTTPS), utilizing the data integration function in the integration service. For more information, see Getting Started with Your Integration Project in the SAP Cloud Platform Integration Guide.

Data Export Using the Integration Service

For each planning area in IBP, there is an IBP calculation scenario that allows the extraction of all IBP key figures on any aggregate level. The calculation scenario can be consumed by the integration service. In addition, the extraction of master data via the integration service is also supported. IBP master data tables are exposed as read-only and can be used as the source datastore in the integration service when it is connected to an IBP system.
