Abstract: Described herein are synthetic progestogens, such as 6?,7?:15?,16?-Dimethylene-3-oxo-17?-pregn-4-ene-21,17-carbolactone, as well as pharmaceutical compositions comprising the same. Also described are methods of use.

Abstract: Systems and methods for generating a cross-plant bill of materials (BOM) for a particular final end product that can be used by a central business system for performing various business analysis and processes quickly and efficiently are disclosed. The cross-plant BOM can include information from multiple bills of materials (BOMs) for multiple component products produced by multiple manufacturing plants. The list of manufacturing plants participating in the production of a particular end product is referred to as a plant group for business entities. The BOMs for the component products produced by various plants within the plant group for a final end product are inserted into or associated with the BOM for the final end product that includes the component products.

Abstract: Techniques for bill of material (BOM) low-level code harmonization are disclosed. The BOMs from different sources for each product are ranked according to corresponding low-level codes of the end product. The BOMs are scanned in order to determine the lowest low-level code for all BOMs for a particular product. The BOMs for the particular product are then associated with the lowest low-level code. Once all the BOMs for each product are assigned the lowest low-level code for that product, then the BOMs are rescanned in the ranked order to determine the lowest low-level code associated with each end product in BOMs in which the end products are included as components. Each BOM for each end product is then associated with lowest low-level code from the BOM in which the end product is listed as a component. The harmonized low-level codes are used for determination of eligibility for preferential customs duties.

Abstract: A preference management framework allows for the management of vendor-based vendor declarations and of vendor declarations for customer's purposes, preference determination based on preference agreements, the provision of statements regarding the preference eligibility of goods based on preference determinations, and the printing of several preference related documents according to the relevant agreements. The framework is flexible enough for users to easily develop their own preference schemes for new preference agreements. Users may first define (or modify) their responsible areas for preference management by assigning (or removing) administrative units of a business to themselves. Then the users may begin the preference processing by choosing one of their assigned administrative units and any preference agreements relevant to that administrative unit may be automatically determined for possible following steps in preference processes which can now be started.

Abstract: A plow substantially made from polymeric material is generally configured to be used with all-terrain vehicles (“ATV”) or other similar vehicles. The design and shape of the plow generally cause the snow to move toward the middle of the plow instead of being pushed out of the snow removal path or toward the sides of the plow.

Abstract: A business object model, which reflects data that 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.

Abstract: The present invention is directed to a plow substantially made from polymeric material and that may be used with an all-terrain vehicle (“ATV”) or other similar vehicles. The design and shape of the plow generally cause the snow to move toward the middle of the plow instead of being pushed out of snow removal path or toward the sides of the plow.
