Package organization
An iFlow in SAP Integration Suite (CI/CPI) is a visual representation of the data integration between systems, which allows developers to easily manage and automate data movement using a drag-and-drop interface. Each iFlow is composed of building blocks that will either concern the sender (source system), the receiver (target system), contain a message processing (step to modify or process the data), and adapters (allowing the connection to different systems). Please refer to SAP CI documentation for more information
The Akeneo integration for SAP Commerce is a package regrouping several artifacts. The integration does not only transfer one type of data like the attributes but rather enables a full synchronization of both systems. To simplify the integration onboarding, the package has been sub-divided into several sections:
Artifact |
|
| 0 | Main configuration parameters: Global configuration and filtering (0.0) , Global artifact (0.1), Global Family artifact (0.2) |
| 1 | Synchronization process: Full (1.1), Delta or differential import (1.2), Structural data import on family (1.3) |
| 2 | Mapping: attributes (2.1) and product type mapping (2.2) |
| 3 | Advanced configuration for product modelization |
| 4 | Data Transformation Mapping: Product (4.1) and Product Variant transformation (4.2) |
| 5 | Script |
