Data takeover

SAP Integration
into Linetrack

Linetrack takes over master data and existing planning data from SAP during rollout - a one-off data takeover that is already built and runs with no separate development needed.

Linetrack project management software with a data takeover from SAP

In short

The SAP integration takes over master data and existing planning data from SAP during Linetrack's rollout - a one-off data takeover that is already built and runs with no separate development needed. Your existing SAP data does not have to be re-entered by hand for this - it is taken over straight into the Linetrack plan.

What Linetrack takes over from SAP

SAP is one of the systems Linetrack takes existing data over from directly during rollout.

Data taken over: Master data and existing planning data from SAP - data takeover during rollout.
Type of connection: Data takeover, already built.

The full list of every connected system is on the interfaces overview.

Challenge

Why SAP master data would otherwise be maintained twice

Master data and existing planning data sit in SAP. Without a takeover they would have to be re-entered by hand during rollout - with the risk that the two versions drift apart over time.

When SAP master data affects several projects at once, that shows up directly in the portfolio view within multi-project management.

As a widely used ERP system, SAP also falls under the general ERP integrationin many projects, whose live sync runs independently of the one-off data takeover.

The data takeover runs as part of the implementation, not as a separate project ahead of it.

Effect on the rollout

Data takeover instead of re-entry

Master data and planning data from SAP do not have to be re-entered by hand during rollout - they are taken over directly.

That reduces the risk of the SAP state and the project system drifting apart over time.

What data does Linetrack take over from SAP?

Linetrack takes over master data and existing planning data from SAP - as a data takeover as part of the rollout.

Is the SAP connection a live sync or a one-off takeover?

The one-off data takeover during rollout is what is in live use. A live sync beyond that would run through the general ERP connection, whose scope is agreed individually per system.
