Interacting SAP and Navision using 3rd party applications

There are many middleware tools that work as middleware for integrating different applications. There exists a vast variety of them but choosing a correct one is based on the applications being integrated.

For integrating the third-party application with either SAP or Navision, you can use Apache Camel. Also, SAP provides a framework - SAP PI - SAP NetWeaver Process Integration.

• Either using DI API which interacts with COM Objects and interfaces
• Use SAP DI Server which relies on SOAP protocol to access data
