Key Challenges
Our client struggled to manage growing challenges around HR data consistency and operational efficiency. They ran numerous core systems, such as Microsoft SharePoint as their content management system, Cascade as their HR system, and Elite as their practice management and finance system. They sought a solution to enhance employee data’s accuracy, consistency and efficiency on all core platforms. Their primary intent was to eliminate manual efforts dependency, reduce the administrative overhead and ensure reliable data synchronisation across platforms. They further aimed to enhance the coordination between HR and Finance departments.
- Manual Photo Uploads: Employee photos had to be manually uploaded into SAP SuccessFactors, resulting in inconsistencies and delays in profile updates.
- Error-Prone Data Transfers: Manually pushing employee bank details from Elite 3E to SAP SuccessFactors was time-consuming, error-prone, and complex to scale.
Our Solution
We used the Boomi platform to connect all three core systems: Microsoft SharePoint, SAP SuccessFactors, and Practice Management System Elite 3E to ensure effective integration and consistent data flow. This integration enabled the automated syncing of employee data, such as images, from SharePoint to SAP SuccessFactors, ensuring that all employee profiles in the HR system were updated with the latest and most accurate photos.
- For the successful integration, we utilised Boomi’s HTTP Connector to call SuccessFactors’ REST APIs. This allowed us to push the latest employee images into the system effectively.
- To transfer the employee payment data from SAP SuccessFactors to PMS Elite 3E, we implemented a structured data transfer mechanism using Boomi’s ODATA Connector. This approach ensured that the Elite system consistently updated the payment information.
- Leveraging Boomi’s integration capabilities and built-in tools like connectors to establish a continuous data flow across the core systems.
