SAP document routing · ArchiveLink · CMIS · OData

One platform for SAP document routing — every edition, every destination.

ECC and S/4HANA on-premise via ArchiveLink. S/4HANA Cloud (Public + RISE) via CMIS or released OData. One routing layer, no SAP customization, deliver to SharePoint, S3, APIs, and 15+ destinations.

Deploys inside your perimeter

Self-hosted, managed on-prem, or hosted on a dedicated single-tenant environment we build just for you. Same product, three operating models.

Self-hosted

Most control

You run it. Helm chart or Docker Compose, your cluster, your ops team. Documents never leave your network.

  • OpenShift, EKS, AKS, GKE, bare metal
  • Air-gapped deployments supported
  • Customer-managed secrets (Vault, KMS)
  • Full source access on enterprise tier
Time to deploy1–2 weeks

Managed on-prem

Your infra · we operate

We deploy and operate FileRelay inside your cloud account. You keep data residency; we handle ops.

  • Customer-owned VPC / subscription
  • 24/7 monitoring + SLA
  • Zero-touch upgrades
  • Dedicated tenant — no shared infra
Time to deploy2–5 days

FileRelay-hosted

Dedicated · we operate

We host and operate FileRelay on dedicated infrastructure built just for you. Same isolation as on-prem.

  • Dedicated single-tenant infra
  • Same product as self-hosted
  • We run deployment, ops & upgrades
  • No infra/ops team needed
Time to deploy1–3 days

Four walkthroughs: setup, audits, enrichment, S/4HANA

Setup with ArchiveLink

How FileRelay Works

Inside your FileRelay deployment, create a workspace and a repository. The ingest endpoints SAP will call are derived from their slugs.

Step 1
Workspace setup
Workspace
acme-prod
Repository
fi-invoices
Endpoints provisioned Active
Hosthttps://filerelay.your-domain.internal
ArchiveLink/acme-prod/fi-invoices/ContentServer
CMIS/acme-prod/fi-invoices/events/cmis
OData/acme-prod/fi-invoices/events/odata

On your FileRelay instance, create a workspace per environment (dev / prod) and a repository per SAP system. FileRelay generates the ArchiveLink Content Server URL automatically — the same repository also accepts CMIS webhooks and OData events at sibling paths.

Protocol comparison

Not sure which one applies to your SAP?

FileRelay supports three SAP ingest protocols, matched to your edition. Take a quick look — then use the picker to confirm.

ArchiveLink
ECC · S/4 on-prem · RISE

SAP pushes documents to FileRelay in real time. Configured via classic SAPGUI (OAC0). No ABAP needed.

CMIS
S/4 Cloud Public & RISE

FileRelay polls the SAP Document Management Service via the OASIS CMIS 1.1 standard. Configured in Fiori.

OData
S/4 Cloud Public & RISE

FileRelay consumes released attachment OData APIs. Best when documents are tied to specific business objects.

Security and Compliance

Encryption per customer, audit on everything, on-prem by default.

Data residency

Documents stay in your network — your cluster or your cloud.

Per-customer encryption

Envelope encryption with KMS-backed keys, scoped per customer.

Audit trail

Every action logged with actor and outcome. Exportable for reviews.

Why buy FileRelay instead of building it?

You could ship an SAP document routing layer on BTP, ABAP, CAP, or your own stack — implementing ArchiveLink, CMIS, or OData yourself. People do. Here’s what they discover in month 6.

Time
< 1 day vs 8–12 weeks

First document routed afternoon-of, not next quarter.

Destinations
15+ on day one

Add a new destination in minutes, not weeks. OAuth and API drift handled.

Certification
SAP ICC BC-HCS 4.5

We’re pursuing it. If you build, you spend 12–18 months and 5–6 figures.

Operations
Retries, audit, replay

The boring production-grade stuff that decides whether a build makes it past pilot.
