SAP Application Interface Framework

Build and monitor smart, simple interfaces – with SAP Application Interface Framework

Develop and monitor all the application interfaces your business needs – with SAP Application Interface Framework (SAP AIF). This interface management tool provides structured guidance to help you quickly and cost-effectively create and deploy compliant interfaces. Empower business users to monitor interfaces and troubleshoot issues without IT – and customize authorizations to protect sensitive data.

Why SAP Application Interface Framework?

Because it minimizes the cost and effort of application interface management – no matter how many interfaces your business needs. Integrated with your SAP software and optimized for SAP HANA, the tool makes it easy to develop and deploy reliable, user-friendly interfaces that can be monitored without IT support. With SAP AIF, you can:

  • Use a structured framework to improve interface development, deployment, and governance
  • Connect diverse applications and technologies with a single interface management solution
  • Provide business users with integrated, intuitive interface monitoring tools – no IT required
  • Take advantage of automated, role-based error alerts and handling
  • Easily correct interface errors – including mass errors – on user-friendly screens
  • Achieve cost reductions of up to 40% for interface implementation and 75% for monitoring

Learn how SAP Application Interface Framework can simplify the lives of business users and IT staff:

Functional Capabilities
  • Develop and deploy application interfaces in an SAP-centric or heterogeneous system environment
  • Use a guided framework to efficiently implement interfaces, re-use logic, and improve data accuracy
  • Monitor interfaces across technologies such as IDOC, Web services, qRFC, tRFC, files, batch input, and others
  • Empower business users to correct interface errors on user-friendly screens — without help from IT
  • Improve governance with interface transparency within an area of responsibility
