  • Zero Copy Connector for ERP (Enterprise Resource Planning) is a ServiceNow scoped app that enables you to retrieve and update ERP data from the system of record, such as SAP.

    Legacy systems of records, such as SAP, can have old, complex custom code and data that require more time and effort to move to newer versions of the system of record. Use Zero Copy Connector for ERP and ERP Semantic Mining (ERP-CM) to scan the system of record to find and replace custom code with digitized workflows, resulting in a clean ERP core.

    The replatforming of legacy code enables innovation on top of the system of record without knowledge of the legacy system. Database administrators and developers are then relieved of time-consuming efforts to create database views or endpoints in the system of record, freeing them to work on other projects, such as migration.

    Use ERP models as the data foundation for ERP apps. These models include ERP system data in remote tables and extraction tables, and enable you to read and update the ERP system. After you create ERP models, you can use the extracted and transformed data to build apps that access the ERP models, for example in App Engine Studio or Creator Studio, or use the ERP data in flows in Workflow Studio.
