Yammer Brings Social Collaboration To SAP

sapLast year, Yammer debuted an integration with Salesforce to bring sales data from the CRM product into Yammer's social collaboration feed. Today, Yammer is debuting a similar product enhancement with SAP, the first real data integration with an on-premise enterprise giant. Via a Yammer SAP connecter, updated from SAP ERP Central Component will appear as activity stories in Yammers Ticker. SAP customers who have installed the Yammer SAP Connector will see updates from all business suite applications including HR, ERP and CRM.Yammer CEO David Sacks tells us that the connector was abuilt-in partnership with Freeborders, a certified SAP developer with deep expertise in SAP integration, and SAP actually wasn't a part of this product. Here's how it works. The Yammer SAP Connector is a plug-in installed on the customers SAP instance by Freeborders on-premise. The Connector will add the capability for users to follow data objects in SAP so when changes to those objects occur, an activity story describing the event will appear in Yammers Ticker. The activity story links back to the original record in SAP.
