Stored inventory balance information in a first format for use by a first computerized system is transformed to readily make the stored inventory balance information available for use in a second computerized system that utilizes a second format in a cost-efficient and time-efficient manner.

Inventory balance common object

An order class is defined which includes multiple data elements that are common to various order types. The order class identifies relationships of an order with various entities related to the order.

Modeling of order data

Stored product management information in a first format for use by a first computerized system is transformed to readily make the stored product management information available for use in a second computerized system that utilizes a second format in a cost-efficient and time-efficient manner.

Product common object

A data model that allows for relationships between entities, also referred to as parties, to be modeled as attributes of an entity and for customization of the data model in a manner that facilitates upgrading of the data model. In some embodiments, the data model may facilitate creation and processing of financial applications. Using the data model, received application data can be stored in a financial application record, including data relating to a party's financial statements. In some embodiments, the data model may facilitate management of financial account data for multiple accounts. In some embodiments the data model may facilitate management of credit information, such as credit information collected by credit bureaus.

Financial services data model

Stored inventory transaction information in a first format for use by a first computerized system is transformed to readily make the stored inventory transaction information available for use in a second computerized system that utilizes a second format in a cost-efficient and time-efficient manner.

Inventory transaction common object

Stored inventory location information in a first format for use by a first computerized system is transformed to readily make the stored inventory location information available for use in a second computerized system that utilizes a second format in a cost-efficient and time-efficient manner.

Embodiments of the invention provide methods and data structures for the effective and efficient synchronization or inter-exchange of invoice information between business applications employing disparate DOFs. For one embodiment, a DOF is provided that allows for relationships between entities, also referred to as invoices, to be modeled as attributes of an entity and for customization of the DOF in a manner that facilitates upgrading of the DOF. For one embodiment, the invoice DOF is provided in a common software language such as XML. For one embodiment, invoice information from each of several business applications is translated to a common DOF. The invoice information, in the common DOF, is then inter-exchanged among the several business applications. Each application has only to translate the invoice information from the common DOF to the application-specific DOF of the respective business application.

Invoice data object for a common data object format

Embodiments of the invention provide methods and data structures for the effective and efficient synchronization or inter-exchange of invoice adjustment information between business applications employing disparate DOFs. For one embodiment, a DOF is provided that allows for relationships between entities, also referred to as invoice adjustments, to be modeled as attributes of an entity and for customization of the DOF in a manner that facilitates upgrading of the DOF. For one embodiment, the invoice adjustment DOF is provided in a common software language such as XML. For one embodiment, invoice adjustment information from each of several business applications is translated to a common DOF. The invoice adjustment information, in the common DOF, is then inter-exchanged among the several business applications. Each application has only to translate the invoice adjustment information from the common DOF to the application-specific DOF of the respective business application.

Methods and computer-readable medium for defining a product model

A data model that allows for relationships between entities, also referred to as parties, to be modeled as attributes of an entity and for customization of the data model in a manner that facilitates upgrading of the data model. The data model defines a party class that includes a party identifier and a list of relationships of that party with other parties. The relationships may include represented-by relationships, customer-of relationships, contact-of relationships, or employee-of relationships. The party class can be sub-classed (i.e., be a base class for a derived class) depending on the type of party that is being model.

Data model for business relationships

Enterprise management information in a first format for use by a first computerized system is transformed into an intermediate format to readily make the stored enterprise management information available for use in a second computerized system that utilizes a second format. The transformation includes a plurality of common data type elements that are adapted to be shared across a plurality of data objects in the intermediate format.

Common common object

A forecast class is defined that represents forecasts of different types and identifies relationships of a forecast with various entities related to the forecast.
