iv. Create a Z_program and call the RFC FM which sends data to COUPA with help of Mulesoft
1. Introduction
This Document gives an in-detail approach to create an interface in between SAP and COUPA, with help of
MULESOFT middleware application. It has step by step activites to be done in both SAP and MULESOFT
applications. Technically Mulesoft integration is very stress-free comparatively with other middleware
applications to interact with could base applications.
2. Overview
Requirement: SAP sends the data by running a report program to COUPA and COUPA sends back
acknowledgement to SAP. COUPA is a cloud based P2P application.

Before creating FM, need a Function group, so create function group rst.
Go to Tcode SE37 and choose the GOTO Menu to create Function Group.

Raju,
Any thoughts on MuleSoft vs. SAP PI for integration? We will be integrating SAP with non-SAP systems and
need to decide on a middleware product.
Best,
Sri

Thanks for sharing Raju. One suggestion: you might want to level the details provided for the various steps in
your tutorial. For instance, you are explaining in much detail how to create function groups and functions but
only mention very brie y the RFC destination to be created without giving the name that is used in your code.
To somebody experienced in this area, that will be obvious but other parts of the blog suggest that the target
audience you had in mind are novices.
Regards,
Patrick
