- 11. 11 ● Intermediate Documents (IDocs) ● Retrieve information related to forms, form bundles, taxpayers, and much more. ● Business application programming interface (BAPI) ● BAPIs are defined interfaces that can be called either by either SAP or non-SAP applications, typically in synchronous scenarios. ● SAP Java Connector (JCo) ● JCo allows parsing of IDocs, among other object types, and supports synchronous, transactional, queued, and background RFC. ● OData ● SAP Netweaver Gateway exposes data as REST or OData APIs. Typically, an OData service is built based on BAPIs, meaning that the BAPI is exposed and consumed using the OData format. Ways to Connect
