Salesforce to S/4HANA Cloud Product Migration

(0 reviews)

home

This Anypoint template serves as a foundation for setting an online sync of products from Salesforce to SAP S/4HANA.

Use this template if would like to sync products from Salesforce to SAP S/4HANA products in manner of one time synchronization by browse toting the HTTP endpoint. The template will fetch all products by specified criteria and send it as to SAP S/4HANA to create/update products there.

Requirements have been set not only to be used as examples, but also to establish a starting point to adapt your integration to your requirements.

As implemented, this template leverages the Mule batch module.

The batch job is divided into Process and On Complete stages.

The integration is triggered by the HTTP endpoint to fetch all the Salesforce Products suitable for migration.

Fetched products are passed to the batch as input. In the batch the products is fetched from SAP S/4HANA by its name.

If it exists, its products identifier is resolved against SAP S/4HANA. If it doesn't exist, then new product number is fetched from SAP S/4HANA.

Afterwards every such product from Salesforce is sent to SAP S/4HANA where it is asynchronously updated or created.

Finally during the On Complete stage the template logs output statistics data into the console and send a notification e-mail with the results of the batch execution.

Considerations

​To make this template run, there are certain preconditions that must be considered. All of them deal with the preparations in both, that must be made for the template to run smoothly.

Failing to do so could lead to unexpected behavior of the template.

Before using this template, you may want to check out this Documentation Page, that will teach you how to work

with SAP S/4HANA and Anypoint Studio.

Salesforce Considerations

Here's what you need to know about Salesforce to get this template to work:

As a Data Source

If the user who configured the template for the source system does not have at least read only permissions for the fields that are fetched, then an InvalidFieldFault API fault displays.

java.lang.RuntimeException: [InvalidFieldFault [ApiQueryFault
[ApiFault  exceptionCode='INVALID_FIELD'
exceptionMessage='Account.Phone, Account.Rating, Account.RecordTypeId,
Account.ShippingCity
^
ERROR at Row:1:Column:486
No such column 'RecordTypeId' on entity 'Account'. If you are attempting to
use a custom field, be sure to append the '__c' after the custom field name.
Reference your WSDL or the describe call for the appropriate names.'
]

In order to make this template run on Anypoint Studio there are a few extra steps that needs to be made.

Please check this Documentation Page:

Running on Mule Standalone

Update the properties in one of the property files, for example in mule.prod.properties, and run your app with a corresponding environment variable. In this example, use mule.env=prod.

Running on CloudHub

When creating your application in CloudHub, go to Runtime Manager > Manage Application > Properties to set the environment variables listed in "Properties to Configure" as well as the mule.env value.

Deploying a Template in CloudHub

In Studio, right click your project name in Package Explorer and select Anypoint Platform > Deploy on CloudHub.

Properties to Configure

API Calls

There are no particular considerations for this template regarding API calls

Customize It!

This brief guide provides a high level understanding of how this template is built and how you can change it according to your needs. As Mule applications are based on XML files, this page describes the XML files used with this template. More files are available such as test classes and Mule application files, but to keep it simple, we focus on these XML files:

  • config.xml
  • businessLogic.xml
  • endpoints.xml
  • errorHandling.xml

config.xml

This file provides the configuration for connectors and configuration properties. Only change this file to make core changes to the connector processing logic. Otherwise, all parameters that can be modified should instead be in a properties file, which is the recommended place to make changes.

businessLogic.xml

Functional aspect of the template is implemented on this XML, directed by one flow responsible of executing the logic.

For the purpose of this particular template the mainFlow just executes the Batch Job which handles all the logic of it.

This flow has Error Handling that basically consists on invoking the On Error Propagate Component defined in errorHandling.xml file.

endpoints.xml

This is the file where you will found the inbound and outbound sides of your integration app.

This Template has a HTTP Listener Connector as the way to trigger the use case.

​

* Trigger Flow

HTTP Listener Connector** - Start Report Generation

  • ${http.port} is set as a property to be defined either on a property file or in CloudHub environment variables.
  • The path configured by default is migrateproducts and you are free to change for the one you prefer.
  • The host name for all endpoints in your CloudHub configuration should be defined as localhost. CloudHub will then route requests from your application domain URL to the endpoint.

errorHandling.xml

This file handles how your integration reacts depending on the different exceptions. This file provides error handling that is referenced by the main flow in the business logic.
