White Paper: Overview of SAP S/4HANA Cloud Extensibility
SAP has provided tools to achieve extensibility, both within the S/4HANA Cloud system (in-app) and when there is a need to connect S/4HANA Cloud to external systems (side-by-side).
In-App Extensibility: This concept covers the extension of standard applications in the capacity that includes:
- Custom Fields
- Custom Forms
- Email Templates
- Creation and Addition of Custom Business Logic
- Creation of Custom Queries
- Reusable Libraries for UI Elements and Code
Side-by-Side Extensibility: This is a concept whereby external systems can be integrated into SAP S/4HANA Cloud using SAP Cloud Platform. These external systems could support functions like IoT, Big Data Services, Process Innovations, Data Science, Cloud Native for B2B and B2C businesses, etc. Side-by-Side Extensibility includes the following functions:
- Develop Custom Applications
- Create Dependent Extensions
- Consume Third-Party Apps
- User Interface Integration
- User Integration
- Rules and Workflows, Events Integration
- Process Integration and Data Replication
This white paper offers an overview of SAP S/4HANA Cloud Extensibility, including architecture, tools and features. It also provides a decision matrix to help you understand the different extensibility components for In-App Extensibility and Side-by-Side Extensibility in SAP S/4HANA.
