Abstract
A proxy remote function call is created in a first component of an Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) system, the proxy remote function call acting as a proxy for a previously created remote function call in the first component. A field mapping table may then be maintained for the proxy remote function call, the field mapping table containing a mapping of first data fields used for operation of a process in a second component of the ERP system to second data fields utilized by the remote function call in the first component, at least one of the first data fields mapping to a data field in the second data fields having a different data type and/or different field names. When a call is received from the process on the second component, fields in the parameters of the call may be converted using the field mapping table.
