Disclosed is a mechanism to process business object IDs in inbound and outbound processing. The mechanism takes into account a mapping table, matching capabilities, number ranges, inbound error and conflict handling, inbound processing, outbound processing, initial load, and data migration.

Processing of business object identifiers in master data integration scenarios involving non-local identifiers

According to one general aspect, a method may include replicating, to a software-as-a-service application, a plurality of pieces of master data from a physically remote master database. The method may also include converting the plurality of pieces of master data into one or more pieces of local data of the software-as-a-service application. The method may include changing one or more of either the pieces of master data or the pieces of local data. The method may further include synchronizing the changed pieces of either master data or local data between the remote master database and the software-as-a-service application.

Integration scenario for master data with software-as-a-service system

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 a goods tag, a production bill of material hierarchy, and/or a release order template business object.

Managing consistent interfaces for goods tag, production bill of material hierarchy, and release order template business objects across heterogeneous systems

Methods and apparatus, including systems and computer program products, for a service architecture design that provides enterprise services having logistics execution 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 logistics execution application as enterprise services

The present invention provides a system and method for evaluating offers that are received in response to a request of a user. The system and method of the present invention use fuzzy logic to evaluate the offers. The evaluation provides a degree of satisfaction based on the information provided by the user.

Fuzzy evaluation of responses to provide degree of satisfaction

The present invention provides a system and method for providing requests using linguistic terms to describe importance and degrees of satisfaction. For example, a user may submit a bid invitation for items and use linguistic terms to describe the importance of each item and of attributes of the items. Linguistic terms may also be used to describe degrees of satisfaction with possible values of attributes of the items. The system and method of the present invention use fuzzy logic to evaluate the offers. The evaluation provides a degree of satisfaction based on the information provided by the user.

Submitting requests with degrees of satisfaction to be used for fuzzy evaluation of responses

A system and method for data element extraction from hierarchically structured documents. According to one embodiment, a generator extracts a plurality of data elements from a stored hierarchical data file that is in a first format, in accordance with a data set that is unique to the particular hierarchical data file, and arranges the plurality of data elements in a second format so that the arrangement provides the plurality of data elements with a document context, and so that the data elements can be further arranged in a third format without using the data set.
