Abstract
The present disclosure involves systems, software, and computer implemented methods for providing a virtual process context to a plurality of network participants associated with a networked business process. One example method comprises associating a networked business process with a virtual process context, the networked business process comprising a set of interrelated business processes performed by at least two different network participants, receiving a first data object from a first network participant business process associated with the networked business process, storing the received first data object in the virtual process context associated with the networked business process, and notifying at least a second network participant of the stored first data object. In some instances, notifying at least a second network participant of the stored first data object may include transmitting a copy of the first data object to at least a second network participant associated with the first data object.
