SAP Integration
One global invoice partner for SAP
From data extraction to e-invoicing and reconciliation, Staple has pre-built modules on the App Center for SAP and SAP Concur. Connect in under a minute with no middleware or custom development
The SAP integration problem
Most AP teams on SAP have solved the front-end to manage expense approvals, travel bookings, and payments. The problem is downstream.
Invoices and receipts still need to get into SAP with accurate data. The gaps:
Thai invoices and rubber-stamped receipts your processor can't read
Suppliers outside the App Center ecosystem
A middleware connector that breaks on every SAP upgrade
Staple was designed for SAP clients whether you run SAP, SAP Concur, or both. One global partner for extraction, e-invoicing, and reconciliation across jurisdictions.
Extracted data flows from Staple into SAP
The SAP integration problem
Module 1: Extraction
Structured data from invoices, receipts, and supporting documents in any language and format. Handwriting, rubber stamps, and mixed-language documents in a single pass. Data pushes into SAP. No manual keying. Your AP team stops re-entering data the AI already read
Module 2: Integration
Connect SAP to suppliers and systems outside the App Center ecosystem. Pull spend data from non App Center suppliers, connect TMC invoice data to employee expense records. Complete view of company expenses, not just what flows through SAP natively.
Module 3: Reconciliation
Match centrally billed transactions against employee expense requests and tax authority records. VAT, SST, and GST validated across APAC jurisdictions automatically. Every reconciliation carries a field-level audit trail. Discrepancies are caught before submission, not during audit. For China and Malaysia, Staple validates against local tax authority data
AP Operations Manager note: If your AP team runs a reconciliation spreadsheet alongside Concur, Reconciliation closes that gap.
Why Staple over a custom connector
Generic document processors:
Extract from invoices
Cannot handle different document formats
Cannot reconcile across tax jurisdictions without middleware
Generic document processors extract from invoices. They cannot connect natively to SAP, handle different document formats, and reconcile across tax jurisdictions without middleware. Staple's modules are App Center-native.
