Abstract: 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 lead business object.

Abstract: A subset of a standardized scripting language can be defined, and a tailored grammar for the subset of the standardized scripting language can be created to match the subset language features. The tailored grammar need not be a subset of a grammar of the standardized scripting language. A subset-specific type system can be provided for the subset of the standardized scripting language such that the subset-specific type system sits on top of a defined type system for the standardized scripting language. A user scripting input can be received via a script editor that employs the subset of the standardized scripting language, the tailored grammar, and the subset-specific type system. The user scripting input can include creating a user interface feature accessing data in one or more objects. Related systems, methods, and computer program products are also described.

Abstract: The present disclosure describes methods, systems, and computer program products for monitoring financial risks using a quantity ledger. One computer-implemented method includes receiving a contract, wherein the contract includes at least one transaction, parsing the contact to identify the at least one transaction, deriving, by operation of a computer, at least one associated future transaction for the at least one transaction, logging the derived at least one associated future transaction to a quantity ledger, aggregating, by operation of a computer, the logged quantity ledger data to determine the presence of an exposure, and applying at least one rule to determine if an exposure mitigating action should be performed based upon the aggregated logged quantity ledger data.

Abstract: Various embodiments illustrated and described herein include one or more of systems, methods, and software providing for configurable metrics and metric visualizations with regard to company data. Such embodiments provide flexibility to users in defining metrics, such as Key Performance Indicators (KPI), and dashboard views. One such embodiment includes receiving a dashboard view request from a requestor. A dashboard configuration may then be retrieve from a database. The dashboard configuration typically includes various data elements that define either directly or by reference to other data and graphical elements from which a dashboard visualization can be rendered. The various data elements and graphical elements generally are user configurable and standardized to be interchangeable in defining and generating dashboard visualization based on underlying operational data of an organization.

Abstract: A centralized authorization client, in a secure system, that references service provider specific on-behalf authorization protocol implementation records for generating access request messages for accessing user resources hosted by multiple service providers, is disclosed. The service provider-specific authorization implementation records include parameters for requesting user resources associated with a requesting user provided by a specific service provider. Applications running in the secure system can send access request messages through the authorization client to obtain authorization or access to user resources in multiple external service providers so the resources can be displayed, or otherwise manipulated, from application within the secure system. Once authorization is obtained for accessing the resources, the authorization client can store authorization tokens for use in persistent authorized access to multiple external service providers for resources owned by particular users.

Abstract: A method includes receiving data from a non-geo enabled data source, obtaining information related to location in the received data, converting the obtained information to a standardized form of geo-location data, and storing the geo-location data.

Abstract: Conventional approaches to transactional processing and analytics in database management systems have typically maintained a strict separation between these tasks, often resulting duplicate modeling, replication of data, usage of different infrastructure stacks, the need to integrate transactions and analytics on a layer that is very close to the end user, etc. Described herein are systems, methods, articles of manufacture, and the like relating to a central integration component that provides access to a core metamodel. Via the metamodel, metadata specify a data part of a business object and one or more information providers (e.g., an analytical view, an attribute view, etc.) that directly consume data from database tables underlying the business object. The central integration component responds to data access requests using the core metmodel.

Abstract: Embodiments relate to the implementation of configurable rules that automatically monitor large volumes of data stored in a database. Certain embodiments may leverage the high processing power available to the database engine of an in memory database, in order to perform analysis of large data volumes for compliance and other purposes. Particular embodiments may utilize ABAP Database Connectivity (ADBC) to a HANA in memory database available from SAP AG, in order to implement and execute configurable rules in connection with governance, risk, and compliance (GRC) of large volumes of data stored therein. In various embodiments, an analysis engine in the application layer may rely upon the in memory database engine to execute at least some logic of the configurable rules.

Abstract: Data records of a data set can be stored in a plurality of main part fragments retained in on-disk storage. A size of the data set can be compared to an available size of main system memory. All of the plurality of main part fragments can be fully loaded into the main system memory when the available size of the main system memory is larger than the size of the data set. Alternatively, one or more of the of main part fragments can be paged into the main system memory on demand in response to a data access request when the available size of the main system memory is smaller than the size of the data set and the data access request can be satisfied by providing access to a subset of the main part fragments, or access can be provided directly to the on-disk main part fragments when the data access request involves random access for projection in the data set and the available size of the main system memory is smaller than the size of the data set.

Abstract: A method and system of distributing costs in a transportation management system is provided. A charge element for a cost to be applied to a transportation invoice is received, wherein the charge element identifies a charge amount. Then, for each distribution item, a distribution element corresponding to the distribution item is created in response to a determination that the charge element is applicable to the distribution item, wherein each distribution item corresponds to an item transported in a shipment associated with the transportation invoice. A quantity type identified in a distribution rule for the charge element is determined. Then quantities of the quantity type are obtained for each distribution element. These quantities are summed into an aggregate quantity. Then, for each distribution element, a cost for the charge element equal to a quantity of the distribution element divided by the aggregate quantity multiplied by the charge amount is allocated.
