Python connectivity with SAP Business One

Full-featured and consistent SQL access to any supported data source through Python


Connecting to SAP Business One with Python

CData Python Connectors leverage the Database API (DB-API) interface to make it easy to work with SAP Business One from a wide range of standard Python data tools. Connecting to and working with your data in Python follows a basic pattern, regardless of data source:

  • Configure the connection properties to SAP Business One
  • Query SAP Business One to retrieve or update data
  • Connect your SAP Business One data with Python data tools.


Connecting to SAP Business One in Python

To connect to your data from Python, import the extension and create a connection:

Once you import the extension, you can work with all of your enterprise data using the python modules and toolkits that you already know and love, quickly building apps that help you drive business.

import cdata.sapbusinessone as mod
conn = mod.connect("[email protected]; Password=password;")

#Create cursor and iterate over results
cur = conn.cursor()
cur.execute("SELECT * FROM Accounts")
	
rs = cur.fetchall()
	
for row in rs:
print(row)
		
engine = create_engine("sapbusinessone///Password=password&User=user")

df = pandas.read_sql("SELECT * FROM Accounts", engine)

df.plot()
plt.show()

Visualize SAP Business One Data with pandas

The data-centric interfaces of the SAP Business One Python Connector make it easy to integrate with popular tools like pandas and SQLAlchemy to visualize data in real-time.

More than read-only: full update/CRUD support

SAP Business One Connector goes beyond read-only functionality to deliver full support for Create, Read Update, and Delete operations (CRUD). Your end-users can interact with the data presented by the SAP Business One Connector as easily as interacting with a database table.

AI-assisted development with CData CLI

Build SAP Business One integrations faster with AI that understands your schema

Schema-aware AI

CData CLI gives AI coding tools access to your SAP Business One schema. No more guessing table names or column types—AI sees the same metadata in your Python Connectors.

Your AI Knows SQL

How to find table names, column names, and how to generate SQL syntax are things that AI knows well from millions of training data. No need for customization, no hallucinations. Your AI acts like a domain specialist to SAP Business One.

More Accurate, More Token-Efficient

With CData CLI's queryable schema detection and highly efficient queries with filters, aggregation, joins with correct pushdown, your AI will achieve more accuracy with less token usage.
