Customer & challenge

CHANG CHUN GROUP

Since it was founded in 1949, the Chang Chun Group has grown to become the second largest chemical company in Taiwan with over 4,000 employees.The chemical company’s product portfolio includes general chemicals, synthetic resins and synthetic resin products, thermosetting plastics, technicalhigh-performance plastics, electronic materials, and chemicals for semiconductors.

Automating the transfer of data from SAP ERP to the Manufacturing Execution SystemThe group faced the challenge of integrating IDocs from SAP ERP for production management into the newly introduced Manufacturing Execution System. The data transfer needed to be highly automated via an interface that could meet customer-specific requirements.

"Without ERPConnect, we would have had to develop our own interface from scratch. That would have costus a lot of time and energy, and we would have had no guarantee that the resulting interface could satisfy the necessary performance metrics."

Solution with ERPConnect

At the recommendation of the MES provider, the Chang Chun Group evaluated ERPConnect. The SAP interface can be integrated natively into 32-bit and 64-bit applications. A separate API is available for each type of SAP object (e.g., functional modules, SAP IDocs, RFC servers, BW cubes, etc.). The design and implementation of the interface are also possible with corresponding ease. Shawn Tsui, MES System Engineer at Chang Chun Group, reported:“At first we deployed the free trial version of ERPConnect. Our MES successfully received and processed the IDoc and RFC calls delivered by SAP in a relatively short amount of time.” After the successful completion of practical testing, ERPConnect was put into productive operation. Theobald Software helped the chemical company satisfy the customer’s specific requirements. Ivy Luo emphasized: “Theservice and support are excellent. All our questions were answered throughout the process very quickly and professionally.”
