Yammer Brings Social Collaboration To SAP

Last year, Yammer debuted an integration with Salesforce to bring sales data from the CRM product into Yammer's social collaboration feed. Today, Yammer is debuting a similar product enhancement with SAP, the first real data integration with an on-premise enterprise giant. Via a Yammer SAP connecter, updated from SAP ERP Central Component will appear as activity stories in Yammer?s Ticker. SAP customers who have installed the Yammer SAP Connector will see updates from all business suite applications including HR, ERP and CRM. Yammer CEO David Sacks tells us that the connector was a?built-in partnership with Freeborders, a certified SAP developer with deep expertise in SAP integration, and SAP actually wasn't a part of this product. Here's how it works. The Yammer SAP Connector is a plug-in installed on the customer?s SAP instance by Freeborders on-premise. The Connector will add the capability for users to follow data objects in SAP so when changes to those objects occur, an activity story describing the event will appear in Yammer?s Ticker. The activity story links back to the original record in SAP.
