Abstract: A system is provided that processes supply chain events. The system defines a supply chain event type. The system further configures a supply chain event of the supply chain event type as a task generating event, where the task generating event indicates that one or more tasks that are defined for a supply chain financial orchestration flow are to be executed, and where the supply chain financial orchestration flow defines a trade relationship between a first entity and a second entity. The system further receives a supply chain event associated with the supply chain financial orchestration flow. The system further determines whether the supply chain event is a task generating event. The system further executes the one or more tasks that are defined for the supply chain financial orchestration flow where the supply chain event is a task generating event.

Abstract: A policy engine validates one or more security tokens in an authenticated request using a sequence of partial policy validations. Multiple policies may be applied to the security token using the work product generated from each failed policy. The policy that succeeds in validating the security token has a portion of its work performed through previously-failed policies that did not complete successfully. In this manner, the validation of a policy is performed faster and more efficiently since the previous processing is not repeated whenever a new policy is applied.

Abstract: A system is provided that determines a transfer price based on a transfer pricing rule. The system receives a request to calculate a transfer price for a transaction between a first entity and a second entity of a supply chain financial orchestration flow, where the supply chain financial orchestration flow defines a trade relationship between the first entity and the second entity. The system further receives transaction information associated with the transaction. The system further selects a transfer pricing rule from a plurality of transfer pricing rules, where the transfer pricing rule defines a rule to calculate a transfer price. The system further calculates the transfer price for the transaction based on the received transaction information and the selected transfer pricing rule. The system further provides the transfer price.

Abstract: Using a persona as an identity of a user when the user interacts with one or more service providers. An identity of a user who is to interact with various service providers is verified. Various different personas related to the identity of the user are accessed. Each individual persona of the different personas includes user information related to the identity of the user. A specific one of the various different personas is selected for use in interacting with a service provider. The selected persona is provided to thereby enable the user to interact with the service provider using the selected persona.

The system further calculates the transfer price for the transaction based on the received transaction information and the selected transfer pricing rule. The system further provides the transfer price.

Abstract: A system that processes trade events is provided. The system receives events associated with a supply chain financial orchestration flow, where a supply chain financial orchestration flow defines a trade relationship between a first entity and a second entity. The system further determines whether at least one event indicates an ownership change of an item between a first entity and a second entity. The system further generates trade events where at least one event indicates an ownership change. The system further sends the trade events to a cost accounting system. The cost accounting system further performs accounting based on the trade events and generates trade accounting events.

Abstract: A system is provided that orchestrates a supply chain event. The system receives a supply chain event from an external source system. The system further retrieves a source document referenced by the supply chain event. The system further retrieves a supply chain financial orchestration flow assigned to the source document, where the supply chain financial orchestration flow defines a trade relationship between a first entity and a second entity. The system further selects one or more tasks defined for the supply chain financial orchestration flow. The system further initiates execution of the one or more tasks, where each task is executed at an external target system.
