SAP Integration

Purpose-built integration for SAP HANA with module-aware data scoping, automatic relationship mapping, and intelligent sensitive data masking.

Why SAP Integration?

SAP systems present unique challenges for test data management:

  • Complex Data Models - Hundreds of interconnected tables with implicit relationships

  • Module Boundaries - Data must respect SAP module boundaries (MM, FI, SD, etc.)

  • Client/Mandant Architecture - Multi-tenant data isolation

  • Referential Integrity - Virtual foreign keys not enforced at database level

  • Sensitive Business Data - Financial, HR, and customer data requiring protection

The Synthesized Platform addresses these challenges with SAP-native capabilities.

Key Capabilities

SAP-Aware Workflow Wizard

A guided wizard specifically designed for SAP data workflows:

  • Module Selection - Choose SAP modules (MM, FI, CO, HCM)

  • Data Scope Options - Master data, transactional data, or full copy

  • Time Slicing - Filter data by date ranges

  • Intelligent Masking - Pre-configured sensitive data protection

Relationship Mapping

The platform leverages SAP module knowledge and configurable virtual foreign keys:

  • Virtual Foreign Keys - Configurable virtual FKs for relationships not defined in database constraints

  • Module-Aware Filtering - Only includes tables relevant to selected modules

  • Referential Integrity - Ensures master data is included when transactional data references it

SAP-Specific Data Protection

Pre-configured masking rules for SAP fields:

  • Business-Critical Fields - Material numbers, plant codes, and organizational units preserved

  • Sensitive Fields - Manufacturer numbers, pricing, quantities masked

  • SAP Process Integrity - Transformations designed to maintain SAP functionality
