CONTEXT
Company A is migrating its SAP system from R/2 to R/3.
Currently their R/2 system generates free text emails which are sent
automatically to the Transport Providers. There is no acknowledgement
mechanism from the Transport Providers. When Company A updates a transport
order, a new email is generated.
CHALLENGE
All IT resources in Company A are locked in the R/3 migration project.
Therefore no resources are available for any kind of integration
project with the current SAP R/2 system.
SOLUTION
The generated emails are sent to Teleroute instead of the Transport
Providers.Teleroute has developed a custom fuzzy-logic parser module
that listens to incoming free text emails, and is capable of extracting
structured information from them. The parser module then transmits
the structured transport orders into the Teleroute system using
the standard electronic interface.
When Company A updates a transport order, the newly generated email
is used to update original transport order in the Teleroute system.
Through a web browser the users of Company A can monitor the status
of their transport orders.
TECHNOLOGIES USED:
The custom parser module was developed using JAVA.
The module communicates with the Teleroute system using XML over
HTTP |
