##  Overview
The SAP Cloud ALM integration for SAP discovery automatically discovers and inventories your SAP cloud and on-premise systems and services, delivering a continuously updated and accurate view of your SAP landscape. Discovered systems and services are listed in the SAP discovery inbox, where you can create new fact sheets or link them to existing ones.
When you link a service or system to a fact sheet, the system also links that fact sheet to the related reference catalog items and synchronizes relevant catalog data. This data includes applications, IT components, and providers. If your workspace doesn’t contain the related IT component or provider fact sheets, SAP LeanIX creates them. This supports faster and more precise ERP transformation planning and helps you keep your application landscape aligned with ongoing changes.
LeanIX can also optionally discover integration flows between your SAP systems through SAP Cloud ALM's Integration & Exception Monitoring. These discovered flows help you:
  * Identify actual system-to-system integrations
  * Support interface mapping
  * Ensure your interface fact sheets accurately reflect real traffic patterns
