Finero + SAP ERP
Connect SAP S/4HANA or ECC. Finero reads open AR from SAP and posts cleared payments and reconciliation entries back via IDoc, BAPI or SAP API.
Enterprises keep SAP as the system of record while Finero replaces collector spreadsheets, dunning macros and manual cash posting.
What the SAP ERP integration does, end to end.
- 1. Sync
SAP ERP sends open AR, customer master and terms into Finero on a continuous basis.
- 2. Chase
Fin chases per-invoice across email, SMS and chat – respecting your customers' credit terms.
- 3. Collect
Buyers pay card or ACH on hosted Finero pages, routed through your existing payment provider.
- 4. Reconcile
Cash is matched to invoices at the line level and posted back to SAP ERP with audit trail.
How the SAP sync works
Finero connects to S/4HANA or ECC through the interfaces your basis team already governs – IDoc, BAPI, or SAP API. Into Finero: open items, customer master, aging, and dispute codes, continuously. Back to SAP: cleared payments and reconciliation entries post against the open items they settle, so FI-AR stays the single ledger and the clearing logic your close depends on is respected.
Every posting is logged with actor, payload, and timestamp. Payments that can't be confidently matched surface as exceptions rather than posting a guess into a clearing account.

SAP dunning runs vs an autonomous layer
SAP's dunning program is exactly that – a program: it batches overdue items into dunning levels and produces correspondence on a schedule. What it doesn't do is judge accounts individually, take payment inside the reminder, triage the buyer's reply, or apply the cash. Finero adds that execution layer on top: per-buyer outreach across email, SMS, and chat, hosted card and ACH payment through your existing processor, AI dispute triage, and line-level cash application posted back to SAP.

Common questions about the SAP ERP integration
Does Finero write back to SAP ERP?
Yes – cash receipts, credit memos and reconciliation entries are posted back to SAP ERP via its native API. Every action is auditable.
Will the integration affect our SAP ERP close?
No. Finero respects your accounting periods. Cash receipts are dated by settlement date and post to the correct period.
How long does the SAP ERP connector take to deploy?
Most customers are live within 2–4 weeks. Time is dominated by your internal access and approval, not by Finero's setup.
Can we keep our existing payment provider?
Yes. Finero is processor-agnostic – Stripe, Adyen, Worldpay, Authorize.Net and others all work with the SAP ERP connector unchanged.
Do we keep using SAP as the system of record?
Yes. SAP stays the ledger and the close process is untouched; Finero owns the workflow between invoice and cleared cash.
