Xtract Universal by Theobald Software

Making SAP data usable across systems

With Xtract Universal, SAP data gets to where it is needed quickly, reliably and easily. Whether databases, analytics, BI or cloud solutions – any target environment can be accessed.

And thanks to the high degree of automation, this can be done without long development times. As a stand-alone solution from Theobald Software, Xtract Universal is independent of existing ETL or data warehouse solutions. It fits seamlessly into existing concepts and solutions for data integration. Different SAP connectors enable access to relevant SAP data, regardless of where it is located or in which format it is available.

SAP integration with universal target environments

Xtract Universal from Theobald Software is a flexible stand-alone solution for SAP data integration.

With Xtract Universal Designer, users can connect to one or more SAP systems, configure SAP extractions with just a few mouse clicks – without programming or scripting. Preview and log functionality supports the development of the various SAP data extracts.

Once the data is extracted from SAP, it can be integrated directly into one of over 20 supported target environments. These include the most popular database systems (SQL Server, PostgreSQL, Oracle), popular cloud storage services (AWS Redshift, AWS S3, Azure Synapse Analytics, Azure Blob, Azure Data Lake, Azure SQL, Snowflake), and leading BI & Analytics solutions (Alteryx, Power BI, Tableau).

Your SAP extractions can be easily modified to include new data elements or to feed into other destinations to meet your changing business needs. This eliminates the need for expensive or time-consuming ABAP programming.

Xtract Universal supports both bulk data extraction and incremental extraction of your SAP data. Multiple extractions can run simultaneously and can be fully automated and monitored. With built-in security, companies have complete control over who can access their sensitive SAP data.

Theobald Software ERPConnect

Theobald Software ERPConnect - Develop SAP interfaces in all .NET-enabled environments

ERPConnect from Theobald Software can be natively integrated into 32- and 64-bit applications.

Design as well as implementation of SAP interfaces are very comfortable, because an independent API is available for each kind of SAP objects (e.g. function modules, SAP IDocs, RFC servers, BW cubes etc.). ERPConnect also offers solutions for demanding tasks: For example, reading BW objects (BEx queries) with its own API, reading SAP tables directly via RFC, generating ABAP code on-the-fly as well as executing it, and controlling transactions via batch input. In addition, the .NET Assembly can be used on mobile devices.

ERPConnect from Theobald Software simplifies a development of robust SAP interfaces.

Put an end to the difficulties of accessing SAP data because no suitable interfaces or libraries are available. ERPConnect from Theobald Software greatly simplifies the development of robust SAP interfaces. ERPConnect supports several important integration scenarios that can now be implemented with just a few lines of code: Calling SAP function modules and BAPIs to read or write data, reading data from SAP tables, calling a transaction, retrieving data from existing ERP and BEx queries, sending and receiving IDocs, or receiving an SAP RFC server call.

For the developer, this means that ERPConnect can be used in the familiar Visual Studio environment to develop solutions while taking advantage of the programming objects for SAP. The data type mapping from SAP ABAP to .NET is integrated.

ERPConnect has been certified by SAP for integration with SAP ECC and SAP S/4HANA. ERPConnect supports all .NET Framework versions from 3.5 SP1, .NET Core versions from version 2.0 and versions of the Universal Windows Platform (UWP) from 10.0.16299.
