V-Link for PaperStream Capture Pro

From the document scanner straight into SAP

Connect PaperStream Capture Pro or Pro Premium directly to SAP ECC or SAP S/4HANA. V-Link, developed by Verbella, delivers captured documents and associated business data into SAP in real time, with no separate middleware, file drops, or batch processing between PaperStream Capture Pro and SAP. 

Store documents in your existing SAP ArchiveLink content repository and connect their index information with the appropriate SAP business process or object. 

Connect PaperStream Capture Directly to SAP

  • Native PaperStream Capture Pro Integration: V-Link appears directly within PaperStream Capture Pro as a release destination, allowing the SAP connection to be configured as part of the PaperStream Capture Pro job. 

  • Direct to SAP: Captured documents and associated business data are delivered directly to SAP ECC or SAP S/4HANA using the customer’s existing SAP environment. 

  • No Separate Middleware: Eliminate the need for an additional middleware server, watched folders, file drops, or polling between PaperStream Capture Pro and SAP.

  • Real-Time Processing: Documents and index information are transferred into SAP as part of the PaperStream Capture Pro release process.

2. Release to V-Link

The document and associated data are released to the V-Link destination configured for the PaperStream Capture Pro job.

3. Archive in SAP

V-Link transfers each document to the customer’s SAP ArchiveLink content repository and verifies that the document was successfully stored.

4. Post Data to SAP

The associated index values and ArchiveLink document ID are passed to the appropriate SAP function, connecting the archived document with the corresponding SAP business process or object.

Built for Enterprise SAP Document Capture

Flexible SAP Field Mapping

SAP ArchiveLink Integration 

Store captured documents in the SAP ArchiveLink content repository the organization already uses while maintaining the relationship between archived content and SAP business data. 

Configurable Data Transformations 

Apply configurable formatting and transformation rules when PaperStream Capture Pro data needs to be prepared or adjusted before being sent to SAP. 

Secure Credential Handling 

Protect connection credentials with encrypted credential storage rather than storing sensitive information as plain text. 

Detailed Logging & Traceability 

Comprehensive trace logging and Windows Event Log integration give IT and operations teams visibility into connector activity and troubleshooting. 

Reusable Configuration 

Export and import V-Link settings between workstations to simplify configuration across PaperStream Capture Pro environments. 

Extend Your Workflow with PaperStream Capture Pro AI

Organizations that want intelligent document processing can combine V-Link with the optional PaperStream AI add-on.

PaperStream Capture Pro AI can enhance the capture process with AI-powered document processing and data extraction. V-Link then provides the connection that delivers the resulting documents and business data into SAP.

PaperStream Capture Pro AI is not required to use V-Link. Customers can connect PaperStream Capture Pro or Pro Premium directly to SAP with V-Link whether or not PaperStream Capture Pro AI is part of their environment.
