Integrating Solace with SAP PP – Best Practices After SAP PP Training?

Connectors & Integrations
1

Hey Guys… :waving_hand:

I recently completed SAP PP training and am now exploring how to integrate SAP Production Planning (PP) modules with event-driven architectures using Solace.

I’m particularly interested in understanding how Solace can be used to stream data or trigger events from SAP PP processes (like order creation, MRP runs, or production confirmations) to other systems in real-time.

Has anyone here worked on a similar use case? Are there any best practices, sample architectures, or connector patterns available for integrating SAP (specifically PP) with Solace?

Thanks in advance.

Looking at the documentation, I can provide guidance on integrating SAP PP modules with Solace software event broker:

The documentation shows that integrating SAP systems with Solace event brokers requires several key components and steps:

  1. Event Broker Setup:
  • A Solace software event broker needs to be deployed and configured
  • The event broker must be version 10.5 or later to support full integration capabilities
  1. Integration Architecture:
  • Event Portal can be used to design and model the event flows between SAP PP and other systems
  • Microgateway capabilities allow translation between different protocols and message formats
  • Event-driven patterns can be implemented alongside existing request/reply patterns during migration
  1. Configuration Requirements:
  • Queue and topic configurations need to be set up on the event broker to handle SAP messages
  • Client authentication and permissions must be configured
  • Runtime configurations can be managed through Event Portal

However, the provided documentation does not contain specific details about SAP PP module integration or SAP-specific connectors. For detailed integration guidance, you may want to check:
