Having challenges accessing your SAP ERP data? With AXLink, you’ll have direct and secure access to your SAP ERP data when you need it without having to constantly rely on busy IT resources. An optional add-on for ACL AuditExchange, AXLink is certified for integration with the SAP ERP application.

Simplify data extraction
With AX Link, Table and field descriptions are displayed in the language selected when logging on to the SAP system. Select all the data you need and extract it when you need it. AXLink formats SAP data for use within AXCore. The data does not require any additional data conversion or formatting before you can analyze it.

Maintain data integrity and security
Access to SAP tables is determined by your SAP authorizations. As a result, data integrity is never compromised and SAP security is respected. Since AXLink uses SAP security to determine access rights, security setup and maintenance activities are minimized. Since AXLink creates read-only queries to extract SAP data, the source data is neither modified nor deleted. This ensures that production data cannot be altered and that data integrity is always maintained.

Automate data extraction
You can accelerate routine data analysis procedures by incorporating AXLink SAP ERP data retrieval directly into ACL scripts. By packaging data queries and analysis into a single script, you’ll save time and increase productivity. AXLink queries and ACL scripts are portable between SAP systems so you are able to re-use your work from one location to the next.

Multi-table queries
Joining up to seven tables prior to extraction is easy with AX Link. You can bring together a variety of tables into a single view for increased visibility into your business transactions. You can also select individual fields and apply filters to obtain only the data you need.

Focused queries save time
You can fine tune the focus of your queries by selecting only the fields you need, which will minimize network traffic and reduce retrieval time. Filters further streamline queries so you can extract only the records of interest.

Advanced table searches
Quickly locate specific tables and fields by using powerful browsing and search tools. AXLink allows you to search by table name or description, field name or description, or by drilling down by application area.

Flexible Query Extraction
AXLink offers the ability to execute queries on your SAP ERP system to extract the results. You can extract online or offline, depending on the file size. To minimize the impact to SAP system performance during high demand periods, you can schedule extracts during non-peak processing hours.

For small data extracts, online extraction executes and downloads query results directly into ACL in one-step.

Offline extraction is recommended for larger data extracts to use SAP system resources more efficiently. Results are stored on the SAP system for retrieval at your convenience.
