PU12 Reference Guide – Interface Toolbox

In the SAP System, you can use the following methods to transfer data from the application
components in Human Resources (HR) to a third-party system, or vice versa:
Interface Toolbox
Application Link Enabling (ALE [Ext.])
Business Application Programming Interface (BAPI [Ext.])
A comparison of the technology [Page 10] shows which method is most suitable to perform the
task.
You use the Interface Toolbox to retrieve data from Human Resources for further processing in a
third-party system. The third-party system can be a payroll system used outside of the SAP
System. This can be useful if, for example, you run gross payroll in your enterprise and the net
payroll takes place in a third-party system.
Alternatively, you can use the Toolbox to import results based on personnel numbers from the
third-party system and use them for payroll in the SAP System.
You use the interface to
Evaluate data from Human Resources in a third-party system
Run payroll partially or completely in a third-party system
The data is retrieved from the Personnel Administration (PA-PA), Payroll (PY), and Time
Management components, or from all three.
