Interact with SAP B1 Service Layer 6 - Gestion Bancos

Overview

This node integrates with the SAP B1 Service Layer 6 specifically for managing banking-related operations. It allows users to perform various actions on financial entities such as Incoming Payments, Vendor Payments, Bank Pages, and External Reconciliations directly from n8n workflows.

For the Incoming Payment - Create operation, the node sends a request to create a new incoming payment record in the SAP B1 system. This is useful in scenarios where you want to automate the recording of payments received from customers, ensuring your SAP system stays up-to-date without manual entry.

Practical example: Automatically create an incoming payment in SAP B1 when a payment confirmation email is received or when a payment is processed through an external payment gateway.

Properties

Name Meaning
JSON Body The JSON content sent as the body of the HTTP request to create the incoming payment. This should contain all necessary fields according to SAP B1's Incoming Payment API schema.

Output

The node outputs the response from the SAP B1 Service Layer API as JSON under the json field. This typically includes details of the created incoming payment record, such as its unique identifier and any other metadata returned by SAP.

If an error occurs during the request, the output will contain an error field with the error message describing what went wrong.

The node does not output binary data.

Dependencies

  • Requires access to an SAP B1 Service Layer instance.
  • Needs credentials including:
    • Base URL of the SAP B1 Service Layer.
    • Username and password for authentication.
    • Company database name.
  • The node authenticates by sending a login POST request to /Login endpoint and uses session cookies for subsequent requests.
  • No additional environment variables are required beyond the configured credentials.

Troubleshooting

  • Authentication errors: If login fails, verify that the base URL, username, password, and company database are correct. Also ensure the SAP B1 Service Layer is accessible from the n8n server.
  • Invalid JSON Body: Ensure the JSON body matches the expected schema for creating an incoming payment in SAP B1. Invalid or missing required fields will cause the API to reject the request.
  • Network issues: Connection timeouts or SSL errors may occur if the SAP B1 Service Layer URL is incorrect or if there are network/firewall restrictions.
  • Error messages: The node returns error messages from the SAP B1 API in the output. Use these messages to diagnose issues such as permission problems or invalid data.
