The Int4 Purpose

The Int4 Purpose
We at Int4 want people to not be hampered by repetitive tasks so that they can focus on creative activities.
That’s why we provide support in two areas. On the one hand, with our world-class SAP integration experts (including 10 SAP Press Authors), we ensure that each system can be easily integrated with any other SAP system.
On the other hand, we provide solutions to automate the testing of SAP business integration scenarios. That’s why we created Int4 Suite, a solution used by many Fortune 500 companies to secure their complex supply chains.
Most companies put a lot of emphasis on the name of their companies and how they are perceived by the general populace. But at Int4, it is quite the opposite because we recognize the fact that it isn’t a building, name, or place that makes up a company. On the contrary, it is the people. And that is why we strive to create an atmosphere that is conducive both for learning and for sharing knowledge.
Our SAP experts have been able to distill their peculiar knowledge by means of our very numerous publications. So, dig in if you are an aspiring SAP expert.
Connect your enterprise landscape with SAP Enterprise Messaging (recently rebranded as SAP Event Mesh). Begin by understanding the architecture that governs asynchronous messaging.

In this E-Bite you’ll learn how to create nested decision table calls, using the ability of BRFplus expressions to call each other. You will see how you can call another expression directly from a decision table cell. You will also be introduced with reusability of decision tables with function call expressions, which are BRFplus context mapping tools, allowing you to call other BRFplus functions as though they were expressions. Thanks to that, you can build a generic function with a decision table in it that will be an interface to your decision table and call this interface with different function calls depending on the context available.

Apart from having so many quality hardware publications, we also have a very long list of digital footprints and a strong online presence. You are more than welcome to join our online community and partake in this very rewarding network.
We try as much as possible to engage in a lot of events, both educationally and socially. It not only gives us the opportunity to showcase our talents but also a chance to learn and expand our network within the international SAP community.
Even though knowledge is a unique thing about us, that is not the only thing that makes us unique. We at Int4 believe in building strong, intimate relationships within and outside the premise of work in order to strike balance, thereby ensuring competence in whatever we deliver.
At Int4 we promote professional development by linking an employee with a mentor or expert who focuses on the development of the mentee. Mentoring is transformational and involves much more than simply acquiring a specific skill or knowledge. Mentoring is about a relationship and involves both the professional and the personal life.
We’ve created…
…and are still developing a unique solution for automated testing in the area of SAP integration – Int4 Suite. Using Int4 Suite you will increase the testing speed in your projects, reduce the costs of solving defects and adopt the business needs fast and secure. What’s more, no 3rd party systems are required because of virtualization feature.
More about Int4 SuiteWe are proud to say that we have over 40 people on board, including 24 prominent experts in the SAP industry and it’s just the beginning.
We have successfully executed 116 international megaprojects, not counting (what we like to call) small scale projects.
Sometimes we still can’t believe it but our journey started 10 years ago! We are proud of it but also excited for the next decades. New challenges and opportunities motivate us to be stronger and better. The best is yet to come!
This may come as a surprise, but eight of our team members share the same name – how cool is that! We don’t know what you may call that but we call it a beautiful coincidence
Int4 and their excellent methodology with financial interface templates and continuous automated interface testing approach allowed us to perform reimplementation of our core application interfaces to SAP without high business involvement. The business risk & downtime were minimized and the implementation and testing phases were around 10 times shorter comparing to the classical approach.
Testing with Int4 Suite has nowadays become a significant part of our roll-out methodology as the product fully met our requirements and expectations. I strongly recommend it as an ultimate interface testing solution.
After the upgrade project go-live, we had 0 (zero) integration production issues, which proves that Int4 Suite interface regression testing was complete.
