How SAP and Salesforce records line up
SAP and Salesforce both store the customer's email address. askotter lowercases and trims it on both sides before matching, so the same person shows up as one customer across the two tools.
SAP and Salesforce both keep a company record. The match runs on the company's web domain first and falls back to a cleaned company name.
Shared between the two: the customer email address and the company or account.
What anomaly detection uses from each
Anomaly detection needs a steady daily series with a known normal range.
From SAP that means daily order intake by sales organisation. From Salesforce it means new leads per day by source.
Salesforce is on the integration roadmap, so the matching described here starts when that connector ships.
What each tool sees on its ownShow less
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.
Salesforce on its own
Salesforce sees leads, accounts and opportunities. It knows which campaign produced a lead only when someone records it there.
Timing. Salesforce opportunity stages move when someone updates them, so pipeline data is as current as the team's CRM habits.
Access. A connected app with read-only access to Lead, Contact, Account and Opportunity.
