Salesforce SLCM Integration Solution
Bridge the gap between Salesforce and SAP Business One
Purpose
Clockwork’s Student Life Cycle Management Integration solution bridges the gap between Salesforce (used as the front-end CRM and student management system) and SAP Business One (used as the back-end ERP). Through robust API integration, the system enables seamless data flow for key transactions—starting from Student Master (Business Partner) creation to Sales Invoice generation and payment receipt. This integration ensures real-time synchronization, reduces manual duplication, and improves operational transparency across the student onboarding and billing processes.
Business Challenges the Student Life Cycle Management Integration Solution Addresses
Educational institutions using separate systems for student management and finance often face inefficiencies and data inconsistencies. Manual handoffs between departments delay critical activities such as invoicing, collections, and student data updates. Typical challenges are:
- Re-entering the same data in both Salesforce and SAP Business One wastes time and increases errors
- Admissions and finance teams don’t get real-time updates, leading to delays and miscommunication
- Delay in invoice generation and fee collection
- Risk of data mismatches and reconciliation issues
- Difficulty in tracking full student transaction lifecycle.
The solution is that the Student Life Cycle Management Integration Solution Offers
- Auto-creation of Student Master as Business Partner in SAP Business One
- API-driven Sales Invoice creation based on course enrollment and fees
- Payment receipt updates pushed into SAP Business One from the student payment portal
