Prerequisites

Before setting up the SAP integration, ensure that the following requirements are met.

Camunda setup

• OData and RFC Connectors: 8.6+
• BTP Plugin: 8.6+
• Advanced Event Mesh Integration: 8.6+

Works with both SaaS and Self-Managed deployments:

• SaaS: Configure hybrid connectors to securely connect to SAP systems.
• Self-Managed: Ensure outbound connectivity from your environment to SAP BTP.

SAP setup

You’ll need an SAP BTP subaccount with the following services enabled:

• Cloud Foundry Runtime

• Destination Service (Free) - for system and service connectivity

• Connectivity Service (Free) - required for on-premises SAP S/4HANA or ECC

• SAP Cloud Connector - configured to bridge on-premises systems with BTP

• Additional services (depending on your use case):

  • SAP Advanced Event Mesh (AEM) - enables event-driven integration between Camunda and SAP

• Required for the BTP Plugin:

  • PostgreSQL on SAP BTP (Hyperscaler Option)

Authentication and connectivity

• An SAP technical user with sufficient authorizations for the relevant S/4HANA or ECC systems
• Authorization and Trust Management Service (Free) — to manage identity and access across integration modules
• Secure connectivity between Camunda and SAP, configured either:
  • Through SAP Cloud Connector for on-premises, or
  • Directly via SAP BTP services for cloud-hosted systems.

Tooling

• The CSAP CLI, a self-contained binary that runs on any platform without installation. Simply copy the binary to the target machine and run it directly.
