Extended ECM for SAP ยท Core Content

Every document where the SAP process needs it.

OpenText Extended ECM brings contracts, invoices, technical documents and correspondence into business workspaces tied to SAP objects. We design, implement and migrate it so people find documents in context, with retention and compliance built in.

What Extended ECM solves

Documents scattered across shared drives, email and legacy archives.

Business workspaces

One workspace per customer, vendor, project or asset, linked to the SAP record and shared with the people who need it.

Records and retention

Retention rules and legal holds applied automatically, ready for audits.

SAP archiving

ArchiveLink and data archiving that keep SAP lean and documents accessible.

Collaboration

Access from SAP GUI, Fiori, Microsoft 365 and Salesforce, with permissions inherited from the business object.

Questions we hear

Is Extended ECM sold by SAP or OpenText?

Both. SAP resells it as part of its solution extensions and OpenText sells it directly. Our services work the same either way.

Do we need it if we already have SAP archiving?

Archiving stores documents; Extended ECM organizes and governs them around business processes. Many customers start with archiving and add workspaces later.
