Posted by: Silwood Technology Ltd

Use Safyr ERP and CRM Metadata Scanners for EDC  to quickly and accurately find, analyse and provision EDC with metadata from your SAP (inc BW & S/4HANA),Oracle, Salesforce and Microsoft Dynamics package applications including customisations

Overview

Finding and importing metadata from ERP and CRM packages into EDC is a challenge. It can delay your EDC project or cause cost overruns.

The reason is that most of these systems have large numbers of tables and attributes plus cryptic naming conventions. There is also no usable metadata in their database system catalogs. 

As a result you may have to rely on consultants, documentation or even internet search to find metadata from these systems for your EDC system.

Safyr ERP and CRM Metadata Scanners for EDC is a unique solution to this common problem. It delivers the ability to provision EDC with ERP and CRM metadata quickly and accurately.

Supported applications:

  • SAP (inc. BW & S/4HANA)
  • Oracle eBusiness Suite
  • JD Edwards
  • Siebel
  • PeopleSoft
  • Salesforce
  • Microsoft Dynamics AX 2012

You use Safyr to extract the rich metadata as implemented from your ERP and CRM system’s data dictionary tables and store it in a metadata repository.

Then use Safyr’s powerful search and analysis features to create and save relevant subsets of that metadata.

The subsets are then loaded into EDC automatically using a bespoke integration between Safyr and EDC. This saves time, improves accuracy and accelerates the delivery of benefits from investment in EDC.
