Automatic conversion of leads

hi,
 
When i covert a lead into an account in salesforce,i would like a mechanism to automatically transfer the account information from Salesforce to my SAP system.Is this possible at all ?
 
What is happening currently is that i have to manually export account data from Salesforce to some excel file which then gets picked up by SAP
 
Thanks,
jhmeyer

If you are OK with the API you can convert the lead using that and then use the returned accountID to look-up and integrate the information you want.

Hi Gareth,
 
Can you please elaborate.
 
Here is my scenario
 
When a rep converts a lead into an account from within Salesforce,i want to have some mechanism that will automatically transfer the created account outbound into my backend system.
 
How to do this.What code do i need to write,where and what would be the logic
 
Cheers
