Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer program products, for implementing a software architecture design for a software application implementing time recording. The application is structured as multiple process components interacting with each other through service interfaces, and multiple service interface operations, each being implemented for a respective process component. The process components include a Project Processing component that is responsible for structuring, planning, and executing measures or projects, a Time and Labor Management process component that supports the definition of employees' planned working time as well as the recording or the actual working times and absences, an Accounting process component that records relevant business transactions, and a Goods and Service Acknowledgement process component that includes the Goods and Service Acknowledgement business object, which is a document that states the recipient's obligation to pay the supplier for goods received or services rendered.

Architectural design for time recording application software

Systems and methods are disclosed for importing source data. The disclosed systems and methods may include uploading the source data from at least one source system and translating the source data into command language commands. Furthermore, the disclosed systems and methods may include checking the command language commands for completeness or consistency and executing the command language commands to generate import data for at least one destination.

Methods and systems for importing source data

Methods and apparatus, including systems and computer program products, for a services architecture design that provides enterprise services having accounting 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.

Providing accounting software application as enterprise services

Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer program products, for implementing a software architecture design for a software application implementing time recording. The application is structured as multiple process components interacting with each other through service interfaces, and multiple service operations, each being implemented for a respective process component. The process components include a Project Processing process component that supports the management of projects, a Time and Labor Management process component that supports the management of employees timekeeping and work planning, an Accounting process component that records relevant business transactions, a payroll processing process component that supports the execution and monitoring of payroll processes, and a Goods and Service Acknowledgement process component that receives a confirmation from an employee of goods received or services rendered.

Systems and methods are provided for generating an accounting document. In one implementation, a computer-implemented method is provided. A message is received that includes operational data. An accounting notification is generated that includes the operational data using a first business object. The accounting notification is processed and the accounting document is generated using a second business object. The accounting document includes a number of posting lines corresponding to the operational data. The accounting document is processed and a set of third business objects is assigned to each posting line. The set of third business objects includes at least one general ledger account business object and a plurality of sub-ledger account business objects. One or more data processing tasks are delegated to the one of the third business objects that are assigned to the given posting line.

Systems and methods for generating an accounting document

Systems, methods and computer program products are provided for data processing. In one implementation, a data processing system is provided that comprises storage means for storing a data category definition table. The data category definition table may include at least the following entries for each data category: a unique name of the data category, a data table identifier for identification of a data table storing data sets of the data category, and a data structure table identifier for identification of a data structure table storing key field and data field names of the data table.
