Data Mapping

Data Entity Mapping

Explore how data flows between systems with intelligent field mapping and transformation logic.

Customer (Hybris) / Patient (Epic)

The core individual identity representing a commercial customer in Hybris and a healthcare patient in Epic. Harmonizing these is fundamental.

SAP Hybris Fields

customerId email firstName lastName customerType (B2C/B2B) isGuest registrationDate address telecom

Epic Fields

id (MRN) identifier (SSN) name gender birthDate address telecom (phone, email)

Mapping Notes

Requires careful de-duplication logic using identifiers like email, phone, or MRN. Consent management for PHI sharing from Epic to Hybris is critical. Mapping Hybris 'Customer' to FHIR 'Patient' involves standardizing address formats and ensuring consistency.

Integration Use Cases

Explore how the integration behaves in real business scenarios, with clearly defined steps, outcomes, and execution patterns.

Patient-Centric Medical Supply Ordering

Enable patients to order prescribed or recommended medical supplies directly from an SAP Hybris-powered eCommerce portal, with order details and associated patient information seamlessly flowing into Epic for record-keeping and potentially claims processing.

Integration Steps:

  1. 0 Patient places order on Hybris for a medical supply.
  2. 1 Hybris creates an 'Order' and 'Customer' record.
  3. 2 iPaaS captures Hybris 'Order Placed' event.
  4. 3 iPaaS maps Hybris 'Customer' to Epic 'Patient' (or links existing).
  5. 4 iPaaS maps Hybris 'Order' details to Epic 'ServiceRequest' or 'Claim' for internal tracking/billing.
  6. 5 Epic updates patient record with purchase history.
  7. 6 Hybris receives fulfillment status updates from ERP (via iPaaS) and updates patient on order status.

Business Outcome

Enhanced patient convenience, streamlined supply chain, accurate patient records, new revenue opportunities.

Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about integration implementation, security, and best practices.

General FAQs

Why integrate SAP Hybris with Epic?
Integrating SAP Hybris with Epic allows healthcare organizations to offer a unified digital experience for patients, enabling them to purchase medical supplies or services online while ensuring their commercial interactions and data are securely synchronized with their clinical records in Epic. This enhances patient engagement, streamlines operations, and provides a holistic view of the patient journey.

Data FAQs

What kind of data can be synchronized between Hybris and Epic?
Key data entities synchronized include Customer/Patient profiles (demographics, contact info), Order details (medical supplies, services), Payment Transactions (for billing and claims), and potentially Product information. The iPaaS ensures these are mapped and transformed appropriately between Hybris's commercial model and Epic's FHIR-based clinical data.

Security & Compliance FAQs

How does this integration ensure HIPAA and PCI DSS compliance?
Our iPaaS solution is built with security and compliance at its core. It enforces end-to-end encryption (TLS 1.2+ for transit, AES-256 for at rest), strict OAuth 2.0 authentication, granular access controls, and data masking/tokenization for PHI and payment data. We adhere to HIPAA, GDPR, and PCI DSS standards, and offer Business Associate Agreements (BAAs) for covered entities.

Workflows FAQs

Can I automate clinical workflows using this integration?
While Hybris is an eCommerce platform, its integration with Epic can enable clinical workflow automation indirectly. For example, a medical supply order placed on Hybris can automatically trigger a 'ServiceRequest' in Epic, updating the patient's record. Our iPaaS can also facilitate real-time updates from medical devices into Epic, and potentially expose relevant patient data to a secure Hybris portal (with consent) for personalized product recommendations.

Technology FAQs

What role does AI play in the Hybris-Epic integration?
AI significantly augments the integration by providing intelligent data mapping suggestions, automating anomaly detection for data quality, suggesting corrections for validation errors, and predicting potential integration bottlenecks. This reduces manual effort, improves data accuracy, and makes your integration workflows smarter and more resilient.

Performance FAQs

Is this integration real-time, or does it use batch processing?
The integration supports both real-time and batch processing. For critical updates like new orders from Hybris or patient registrations in Epic, we leverage event-driven architecture with webhooks for immediate synchronization. For high-volume, less time-sensitive data (e.g., historical product catalog updates), optimized batch processing is used to maintain performance and manage API rate limits.

Customization FAQs

How are custom fields handled between Hybris and Epic?
Our iPaaS provides robust capabilities to map and synchronize custom fields from both Hybris and Epic. Using our visual designer, you can easily define transformations for custom attributes in Hybris to corresponding custom extensions or standard fields in Epic FHIR resources, ensuring all relevant business and clinical data is exchanged.

Challenges FAQs

What are the common challenges of integrating Hybris with Epic?
Common challenges include reconciling disparate data models (e.g., Customer vs. Patient, Order vs. ServiceRequest/Claim), ensuring strict HIPAA/PHI compliance, managing real-time data consistency, mapping product SKUs to clinical codes, handling API rate limits, and securing sensitive payment information. Our iPaaS is specifically designed to address these complexities.
