A method and system for integrating form data in an ERP system with a
target application are provided. The method includes receiving a first
input from a user of an ERP system while a form is running on an
application layer of the ERP system to initiate a data integration
process. Next, a metadata form XML file is generated at an ERP platform
layer from the form running on the application layer. Then, the metadata
form XML file is sent from the ERP platform layer to the application
layer for use by target applications in integrating data from the form
into the target applications.
