    • Import BAPI wrappers as data objects.

      BAPI wrappers can exist in the back-end systems connected to the Data Orchestration Engine (DOE). You can import existing BAPI wrapper definitions from the back-end system to the DOE and create data objects that map these definitions.

    • Create a data object by importing a Mobile Infrastructure (MI) SyncBO.

      In SAP NetWeaver Mobile Infrastructure, you model the back-end data using SyncBOs. You can reuse the SyncBO definitions to create data objects in the Data Orchestration Engine (DOE).
