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: Filter Akeneo PIM Data to SAP Commerce Cloud (0.0) , Import Full or Delta Load From Akeneo To SAP Commerce Cloud (0.1), Import Structural Data From Akeneo to SAP Commerce Cloud (0.2), Collect Data From Akeneo (0.3) |
| 1 | Synchronization process: Schedule Full Import in SAP Commerce Cloud (1.1), Schedule Delta Import in SAP Commerce Cloud (1.2), Schedule Full Import for Structural Data (1.3) |
| 2 | Mapping: Values and Attributes Mapping (2.1) and Value Mapping for Akeneo Products to SAP Commerce Products (2.2) |
| 3 | Advanced configuration available for customization (3.1 Value Mapping Akeneo PIM Product Variation to SAP Commerce Cloud Variant, 3.2 Mapping from Akeneo PIM Product Model Variation Axis to SAP Commerce Cloud Variant Category, 3.3 Mapping Akeneo PIM Product to SAP Commerce Cloud Price Classes, 3.4 Mapping Akeneo PIM Product Price Attribute to SAP Commerce Cloud Price Rows, 3.5 Mapping Akeneo PIM Category to SAP Commerce Cloud Category, 3.6 Mapping Akeneo PIM Measurement Family to SAP Commerce Cloud Classification Unit, 3.7 Mapping Akeneo PIM Family to SAP Commerce Cloud Classification Class, 3.8 Mapping Akeneo PIM Family to SAP Commerce Cloud Classification Attribute) |
| 4 | Data Transformation Mapping: Transform Product Items XML to Product Batch Parts XML (4.1) and Transform Product Items XML to Variant Product Batch Parts XML (4.2) |
| 5 | Global Integration Common Scripts (5.1) |
