Show Your SAP Inbox in Microsoft Teams – A Simple Way to Accelerate Approvals

For many SAP users, the SAP Inbox is a crucial tool—containing the work items that keep business processes moving. But there’s a problem: it’s easy to forget about it.

Managers and decision-makers don’t spend all day inside SAP. They’re often working across multiple systems, jumping in and out of meetings, or catching up on messages in Microsoft Teams. And while SAP My Inbox is a powerful app, it only helps if people remember to open it.

That’s where Looply comes in.

With Looply’s new packaged service for SAP Inbox Replication, you can show the contents of your SAP Inbox directly in Microsoft Teams—without any custom development. It’s a simple but powerful way to bring your SAP worklist into your daily workflow.

SAP Tasks Where You Work

Now, every time a manager opens Microsoft Teams, they’ll see a dynamic, real-time view of their SAP tasks—right there in a notification card.

If there are no pending items, there’s no card. If something new is assigned, a card appears automatically. If something changes—say an approval is completed—the card updates itself. It’s fast, clear, and intuitive.

This isn’t about actioning SAP items inside Teams. Instead, it’s about visibility—giving users a live view of their workload so they can jump into SAP and complete it without delay.

Why It Matters

1. Faster processes.
When work items are visible right in Microsoft Teams, managers are more likely to see and respond to them quickly. This reduces delays in business-critical processes like approvals, reviews, or escalations—helping to keep operations running smoothly.

2. Less friction.
Switching between systems adds unnecessary friction to everyday tasks. With Looply, users don’t need to log into SAP or remember to check their SAP Inbox. Their pending work appears automatically where they’re already working—Teams. It’s one less system to think about, and that simplicity matters.

3. Lower risk.
Missed or delayed approvals can lead to compliance issues, blocked transactions, or unhappy stakeholders. By synchronizing the SAP Inbox with Teams and keeping it updated in real time, you reduce the chances of work slipping through the cracks.

4. Happier users.
Managers and team leads often juggle competing priorities. Giving them visibility of their SAP tasks in a tool they use every day reduces mental load, improves responsiveness, and leads to a better user experience—without changing how the underlying process works.

5. No development required.
This isn’t a lengthy IT project. The SAP Inbox in Teams is available as an out-of-the-box packaged service from Arch, powered by Looply. It’s fast to deploy and works with your existing SAP and Microsoft environments.
