SAP Integration Scenario

In addition to integration technology, SAP delivers "XI-Content" to facilitate the implementation process and thus reduce the TCO for the customer. This content includes data structures, interfaces, mapping programs, integration processes, and integration scenarios, and is synchronized with the related business applications and versions. Additionally, XI-Content is a key differentiator of SAP's integration solution and therefore SAP is expanding the content objects available to SAP customers by initiating this certification program.
To ensure a standardized and harmonized development process for the implementation of content objects, SAP has initiated a certification program for XI-content from ISVs.
