What authentication does SAP S/4HANA require?

SAP S/4HANA uses Communication Arrangements with a dedicated Communication User. You create a technical user in the Fiori Launchpad, assign it to a Communication System, and link it to the appropriate Communication Scenario (e.g. SAP_COM_0008 for Business Partners).

Can I create purchase orders through the agent?

Yes. The `create_purchase_order` tool posts to the A_PurchaseOrder OData endpoint. Provide the supplier, purchasing organization, plant, material, quantity, and price — the agent returns the PO number on success.

Does it support querying custom OData services?

Absolutely. The `query_odata` tool executes GET requests against any OData v4 service exposed via your Communication Arrangement, including custom CDS views. Full $filter, $expand, and $select support is included.

Can I check stock levels across multiple plants?

Yes. The `get_material_stock` tool queries the A_MaterialStock OData service, returning current stock quantities by plant and storage location. You can filter by material number, plant, or storage location.

SAP S/4HANA + Windsurf FAQ

Common questions about integrating SAP S/4HANA MCP Server with Windsurf.

How does Windsurf discover MCP tools?

Windsurf reads the mcp_config.json file on startup and connects to each configured server via Streamable HTTP. Tools are listed in the MCP panel and available to Cascade automatically.

Can Cascade chain multiple MCP tool calls?

Yes. Cascade is an agentic system — it can plan and execute multi-step workflows, calling several tools in sequence to accomplish complex tasks without manual prompting between steps.

Does Windsurf support multiple MCP servers?

Yes. Add as many servers as needed in mcp_config.json. Each server's tools appear in the MCP panel and Cascade can use tools from different servers in a single flow.
