To test the application integration scenario, you can create a communication system, which you can then use when you create the communication arrangement. When your customers use the solution in their production system, they create the communication system in the SAP cloud solution.
A communication system represents an external system which is used for application integration. Communication systems can be, for example, external time recording applications or master data systems. You define a communication system in the SAP cloud solution and use it when you create the communication arrangement.
For more information, see the “Communication Systems Quick Guide” in the documentation of the SAP cloud solution.
You have defined an external Web service integration using SOAP or REST as described in the following table:
