Abstract: A symbolic representation of a business process is received, the process including transfer of information from a first software application to a second software application. An association between a first data field included at the first software application and a second data field included at the second software application is determined, and a data manipulation operation to modify data associated with the first data field is determined, the modified data to be stored at the second data field. The determining is based on association information and data manipulation operations maintained at a database. The association information and the data manipulation operations are determined based on previously received business process representations.

Abstract: A web-based interface is provided for visually modeling a business-to-business or application integration process by selecting and associating predetermined process-representing visual elements. A customized, enterprise-specific executable software application (“dynamic runtime engine”) is automatedly produced by software running remotely. The dynamic runtime engine is created to include a generic application template, predefined “stock” codesets selected as a function of the modeled process, and a data profile codeset that includes input provided by the user for customizing the stock components for a specific integration process of a specific enterprise. The application template and selected codesets may subsequently be downloaded to provide an executable dynamic runtime engine software application that is customized to perform a specific integration process for a specific enterprise.
