Markin + SAP and ERP systems
Cost, inventory and contract truth behind every offer.
A decision layer without cost data optimises revenue and quietly destroys margin. The ERP is what stops that, and it is the input most decisioning tools never see.

SAP and ERP systems questions
- How does Markin connect to SAP and ERP systems?
- Read only. Markin reads signal from this system. Nothing is written back and no schema is changed.
- What does Markin read from SAP and ERP systems?
- Cost and margin by product; Inventory and fulfilment constraints; Contract and entitlement data.
- What does Markin write back into SAP and ERP systems?
- Nothing. This system is a source of signal, not an executor.
- Do we have to move our data to Markin?
- No. Markin reads from your warehouse, product events and operational systems in place, on your compute, under the access rules your data team already set. Nothing is copied into a separate customer base and there is no vendor-side profile store to migrate off later.
- Does Markin replace our engagement platform or CDP?
- No, and it should not. Your engagement platform keeps the channel, the templates, the deliverability and the governance. Your CDP keeps identity and consent. Markin adds the layer neither has: deciding which action deserves to exist for each customer, and proving it against a holdout.
- What if the system we use is not listed?
- The four activation patterns cover almost everything: attribute write-back, triggered event, decision API and direct surface rendering. Any system that exposes an API, accepts a table, or can read a warehouse column can receive decisions. New connectors are built during deployment, typically in days.
