What each tool sees on its ownShow less
Google Search Console on its own
Search Console sees the search up to the click and stops there. It cannot say whether that visitor booked, bought or left.
Timing. Search Console numbers usually arrive two to three days behind, reported as daily totals per query and page.
Access. The Search Console API with read access to the property.
SAP on its own
SAP holds the booked order, the invoice and the customer master. It has no record of the marketing that produced the order.
Timing. SAP data usually reaches outside systems in scheduled extracts, so it runs as current as the extract schedule your ERP team sets.
Access. Read-only OData services or scheduled exports set up with your ERP team.
