A method for processing a data transaction using a single business object includes providing a transaction business object encapsulating multiple function calls for completing a data transaction. The transaction business object includes an execution sequence indicating the order the function calls should be executed. In certain embodiments, the transaction business object is assigned an operation indicating an action to be taken on data in the transaction business object. This operation is used, in selected embodiments, to determine the function calls and execution sequence that are used to process the transaction business object.

Method for encapsulating logical units of work using business objects

An apparatus, system, and method are disclosed to signal a logical error in a function call made by an integration adapter. The apparatus includes an communication module, a code extraction module, a comparison module, and an error report module. The communication module receives a business object having an error dictionary in response to a function call. The code extraction module extracts an error code value from the business object based on an error code location identifier. The comparison module compares the error code value to an associated error code in the error code dictionary. The error report module signals a logical error in the function call.
