LOFTWARE CLOUD - THE GOLD STANDARD FOR SAP LABEL PRINTING
Does printing barcode labels containing data from SAP cause you endless headaches? Our customers using SAP often complain about incorrectly formatted barcodes, costly change requests and hardcoded printer languages limiting the choice of printers they use when printing direct from SAP. But it doesn't have to be that way. Integrating Loftware Cloud with SAP S/4HANA or SAP ECC transforms the way businesses manage and print labels. By connecting your labelling directly to SAP’s real‑time data and workflows, you eliminate manual processes, reduce errors and ensure every label is accurate, compliant and ready for global distribution.
WHY INTEGRATE LOFTWARE CLOUD WITH SAP?
Most SAP environments rely on outdated, manual or heavily customised labelling processes, but a modern supply chain demands speed, accuracy, and consistency. Loftware Cloud brings all three by embedding labelling into the SAP processes your teams already use, modern, cloud‑based platform that integrates directly with SAP. We've detailed the top 5 reasons customers give for wanting to move label printing out of SAP below:
Our customers quickly experience the impact of an integrated label printing system: greater accuracy on every label, higher customer satisfaction and a significant boost in operational efficiency. With Loftware Cloud, data flows directly from SAP via a certified connector. Printing is triggered automatically, ensuring every label is correct, consistent and never duplicated. For operators, the process is effortless. They simply press print or let the system print automatically in the background.
Save valuable time by previewing finished labels, complete with templates and master data from SAP, in Loftware Cloud.
