Application DesignSAP GLM+ Integration

This feature must be installed by Loftware Professional Services.

This feature is available only in the Loftware Cloud Enterprise SP edition of Loftware Enterprise SP.

Loftware Integration for SAP® GLM+ is a product agnostic, independent integration that is supported by both Loftware Cloud and Loftware Enterprise SP. This SAP integration is designed to receive print requests from SAP® Global Label Management (GLM) systems and to return job status. Loftware Integration for SAP® GLM+ provides SAP GLM+ users with an alternative to designing and printing labels with SAP® Windows Wordprocessor Integration (WWI). This integration allows SAP GLM+ users who require a robust enterprise labeling solution to gain access to the benefits and advantages offered by Loftware labeling solutions.

If you are using Loftware Enterprise SP as your labeling solution, Loftware installs support for SAP GLM+ integration into your Loftware Enterprise SP environment. If you are using Loftware Cloud as your labeling solution, your integrator installs SAP GLM+ integration support into your Loftware Cloud environment. Your label designers create and maintain label templates in Loftware Cloud or Loftware Enterprise SP. Your SAP BASIS administrator installs and configures Loftware Integration for SAP GLM+ in your SAP environment.

Unlike many integration types in Loftware Enterprise SP, you manage SAP GLM+ integration in Application Design  by using a business rule, in Process Design Process Design by using a process, and in System System Management by using a dynamic REST endpoint rather than in Integrations Integrations by using an integration. SAP GLM+ integration does not require the creation of a Run As user or a dedicated Loftware Enterprise SP user. Your label designers create label templates in Label Design Label Design.
