Step By Step
SAP Integration | |
|---|---|
 An interface exists between SAP and Salesforce to gather transactional data from Sales Order, Outbound Delivery or Shipment Numbers (Document Reference) from SAP to Salesforce*.•The frequency of the pull is on-demand as the pull happens when a user creates or updates a Complaint with a Document Reference. |  |
 In most cases, a Complaint is linked to a Sales Order Number, to an Outbound Delivery Number or can be linked to a Shipment Number. When creating a new Complaint providing one of these references is usually the first step during the registration.•Let’s follow David, working as a Sales Representative while he creates a new Complaint. Under the Case tab, David clicks on New to create a new Complaint. |  |
•He has the choice between Complaint, Sample Request and Customer Request.
•David selects Open Complaints and clicks on Continue. This will open the Complaint edit page. |  |
 David now needs to select the Document Source (PF1 or WP1) and the Document Type (Sales Order Number, Outbound Delivery Number or Shipment Number).•The reference number and item (for Sales Order and Delivery only) appear in function of the selected Document Type.
Now, it is easier and faster to fill Complaints that have stock transfer orders or purchase orders information in SAP, by having information directly pulled from SAP and pre-filled into the Complaint. => New Winter 17' Release
