SAP Process Orchestration Reviews

SAP Process Orchestration is used as a middleware for B2B and AI integrations. It serves as a standard middleware for SAP projects, facilitating data exchange between external partners or internal systems. 

It is particularly beneficial in the defense industry for orchestrating logistics, transportation management, warehouse management, finances, and other operations within defense agencies.

SAP Process Orchestration has driven cost savings and improved operational efficiency through its prepackaged content, which provides ready-made solutions, reducing development time and cost. It enables seamless B2B integration and support, which are essential for operations within defense agencies.

I use the solution in my company for any third-party or internal integrations, meaning that the tool is mainly used for integrations.

I think that SAP should work more on data modeling. Based on what I know and from my experience, I feel SAP is stable to a certain degree of volume when it comes to data modeling. If the volume of data goes high, then SAP PI/PO has issues while connecting with third parties, so we have another middleware to connect to third parties. If you are connecting directly to third parties, that means you are exposing your internal network to third parties. Data modeling is an area of concern in the product where improvements are required.

In my company, we normally use the solution to integrate all of our internal applications within our organization. As per SAP, the solution's lifecycle may end by 2027. My company plans to replace SAP Process Orchestration with a newer version of SAP product, which is a cloud-based version.

The most valuable features of the solution stem from the EDI integrations provided by SAP. Some of the inbuilt integrations, as well as its components, like the mapping engine and other items, like the available adapters, make for some of the valuable features of the product.

I use the solution in my company for the inventory part, specifically from our POS to our central inventory, from our e-commerce sites to our central inventory, and for all the communication and integrations involving purchase orders.

Some configurations can be a little tricky. The consulting team had to spend a long time checking SAP's community forums and documentation to achieve some goals. The tool could release some new functionalities.

I use the solution in my company for connectivity to third-party systems, and it is simply for the processing of transactional data.

The solution's most valuable feature is its Java Message Service, which is fantastic. One of the key features of Java Message Service is the fact that it offers guaranteed delivery.

Our use cases are all related to integration, from ERPs to third parties. 

The main benefit is that the solution is low maintenance. Moreover, it's the license cost is very low because it's part of the package. The maintenance is standard maintenance. And the updates are regular. So there's a regular update and you can choose whether you want to do those updates or not.

SAP Process Orchestration has a higher version of the CPIs and all that, which is a part of APs. But, it's on a case-to-case basis, whether there is any business requirement for it. But right now, whatever the process orchestration offers, it's good for our business requirements.

The solution is used for file servers, soft services, and other RSC services also connected with SAP Process Orchestration

SAP is an ERP solution that has provided protection in NSG, and our models are integrated into each other.

We have several SAP systems in our landscape that have different modules incorporated in it, and we are using this solution as a gateway for the integration within our landscape of both SAP and non SAP applications that are within the firewall and outside of the firewall. 

The primary use case of this solution is as a gateway for all of the integrations.

Process Orchestration supports everything from simple workflows to complex practices by developing custom process applications.

Improved message processing - With the process Orchestration Single Stack version the throughput of message processing is improved. This is due to the fact that until now the messages were recorded in both the ABAP and Java databases.

Improved Alert Mechanism - Alerts can be filtered by message content.

SAP Process integration Test (PIT) tool - The PIT Tool is a framework with which you can set up automatic tests for process integration scenarios. It really helped us in testing the interfaces post-migration and saved a lot of effort and time.

B2B integration is easier with SAP B2B add-on.

ccBPM's were migrated to NWBPM which Supports human and automated tasks.
