20090150473 | SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR BUSINESS OBJECT SYNC-POINT AND ROLLBACK FRAMEWORK - A method and system for allowing a rollback within a multi-object system infrastructure are provided. In embodiments, a rollback to a state of a software business object is effected. A sync point manager maintains, for example, a list of sync points and their respective associated identifiers and relationship data. When under sync point protection, i.e., a sync point is set, each subsequent object, when created, is requested to prepare a buffer associated with the specific sync point, so that if an error occurs, a request to rollback to the state associated with the sync point is effectable. Multiple sync points may be kept track of by the sync point manager. In further embodiments, the sync points may be associated with a variety of different types of objects. | 06-11-2009 |

20100082497 | Providing Foundation Application as Enterprise Services - Methods and apparatus, including systems and computer program products, for a services architecture design that provides enterprise services having foundation layer functionality at the level of an enterprise application. The design includes a set of service operations, process components, and optionally deployment units. Suitable business objects are also described. | 04-01-2010 |
20100306585 | METHOD AND SYSTEM TO PERFORM TIME CONSUMING FOLLOW-UP PROCESSES - A computer system may receive an instruction to perform an action on an object. A schedule manager may identify a set of processes associated with the action that need to be performed by the computer system. A subset of primary process and a subset of secondary processes may be identified from the set of processes associated with the action. The schedule manager may schedule an asynchronous process to perform the subset of secondary processes on the object. The computer system may perform the subset of primary processes on the object. The subset of secondary process may be performed by the asynchronous process based upon the scheduling. | 12-02-2010 |
20100332277 | METHOD, ARTICLE AND SYSTEM FOR CONSOLIDATED CHANGE MANAGEMENT - A change manager may receive a new event notification. Once a new event notification has been received by the change manager, change information may be received by the change manager. The change information may be associated with one or more data objects that have been changed during the processing of a new event. As each change is received by the change manager, the changes may be stored within a consolidated change buffer. After a new event has been completed, a consolidated change notification may be sent by the change manager to one or more consumers. | 12-30-2010 |
20100332495 | METHOD, ARTICLE AND SYSTEM FOR TIME DEPENDENT SEARCH - A method and system for time dependent search is described. A search manager may receive a query for time dependent information relating to a base object and a time period. The search manager may search a search optimized storage system of technical objects for a technical object that matches the query. Each technical object may include a reference to time dependent information stored by a base object and a validity period. The validity period for each technical object is chosen by time stretching logic such that valid time dependent information is available for all time periods. | 12-30-2010 |
20110161960 | PROGRESS-DRIVEN PROGRESS INFORMATION IN A SERVICE-ORIENTED ARCHITECTURE - A system may include reception of the first instruction, execution of the business process in a first software work process, reception, during execution of the business process, of an indication of a business object process associated with the business process, determination of progress information associated with the business process based on the indication of the business object process, and storage of the progress information within a memory. Aspects may further include reception, at a second work process, of a request from the client application for progress information, retrieval of the progress information from the shared memory and provision of the progress information to the client application. | 06-30-2011 |
20120047079 | PROVIDING FOUNDATION APPLICATION AS ENTERPRISE SERVICES - Methods and apparatus, including systems and computer program products, for a services architecture design that provides enterprise services having foundation layer functionality at the level of an enterprise application. The design includes a set of service operations, process components, and optionally deployment units. Suitable business objects are also described. | 02-23-2012 |
20130031014 | MANAGING CONSISTENT INTERFACES FOR EMPLOYEE DATA REPLICATION BUSINESS OBJECTS ACROSS HETEROGENEOUS SYSTEMS - A business object model, which reflects data that is used during a given business transaction, is utilized to generate interfaces. This business object model facilitates commercial transactions by providing consistent interfaces that are suitable for use across industries, across businesses, and across different departments within a business during a business transaction. In some operations, software creates, updates, or otherwise processes information related to an employee master data replication request and/or an organisational centre replication request business object. | 01-31-2013 |
20130124569 | Data Destruction Mechanisms - Methods and apparatus, including computer program products, are provided for data destruction. In one aspect, there is provided a computer-implemented method. The method may include receiving a request to destroy a first data object; determining whether other data objects depend from the first data object; determining a structure for the first data object and the other data objects, when the other data objects depend from the first data object; initiating, based on the determined structure, calls to the other data objects to destroy the other data objects before the first data object; and initiating a call to the first data object to destroy the first data object, when the other data objects have been destroyed. Related apparatus, systems, methods, and articles are also described. | 05-16-2013 |

20140040200 | MEDIATION OBJECTS FOR COMPLEX REPLICATIONS - A method includes receiving, at a mediation object in a target system, one or more replication requests from a source system, where the replication requests include requests to replicate data on the target system from one or more source objects located at the source system. The mediation object collects and stores data from the source objects of the source system as part of the replication requests. The mediation object determines when data from the source objects of the source system are complete and processes completed data from the source objects of the source system by distributing the data to one or more target objects in the target system. | 02-06-2014 |
20140122436 | READ ACCESS LOGGING - Read access logging is performed by tracing data accesses in all domains. The logged data is traced on metadata level with some additions identifying the exposed data records. All data relevant for read access logging is stored at first in a temporary log, which is later processed, structured, and archived. | 05-01-2014 |
