SAP Cloud ERP Integration with ShippyPro

What is the SAP Cloud ERP – ShippyPro Integration?

ShippyPro connects SAP Cloud ERP Private to all your carriers and shipping processes — from rate shopping to shipment creation and tracking — through a scalable, configurable Solution Accelerator.

ShippyPro is a shipping and logistics management platform that helps companies simplify and optimize the shipping process. The platform provides an extensive API system that allows you to:

Connect to multiple carriers through a single system
Calculate rates and select the best carrier based on configurable rules
Create shipments and generate labels
Return tracking numbers to SAP and enable downstream processes
Manage tracking updates via Webhooks

Key Features of the Integration

Rate Calculation ShippyPro calculates shipping rates in real time based on shipment data extracted from SAP, enabling informed carrier selection before shipment creation.

Carrier Selection Carrier selection is based on fully configurable rules tailored to your logistics setup, SAP data model, and business requirements.

Shipment Creation Once the carrier is selected, ShippyPro creates the shipment using data from the SAP delivery document, triggered automatically via a standard outbound IDoc.

Tracking Number Returned to SAP After shipment creation, ShippyPro returns the tracking number to SAP Cloud ERP Private via API, automatically updating the delivery document and enabling downstream processes such as customer notifications and operational reporting.

How It Works

IDoc Trigger: A standard outbound IDoc is triggered automatically in SAP Cloud ERP Private when a delivery is created
Rate Calculation: ShippyPro calculates available rates using its API
Carrier Selection: The best carrier and service are selected based on configurable rules
Shipment Creation: Shipment data is sent to ShippyPro to create the shipment
Tracking Update: ShippyPro returns the tracking number to SAP via API, updating the delivery document
