  • Repository of background job templates
    Patent number: 8627321
    Abstract: Aspects of the current subject matter can provide a background job repository that stores a background job template specifying a background job comprising a maintenance task that affects a customized software platform. The background job template can also include metadata defining a purpose of the background job, triggering information indicating when the background job should be executed, and a prerequisite feature of the customized software platform that indicates a need for the background job in the customized software platform. A previous set of background jobs that run in the customized software platform can be updated to a current set by comparing the previous set with the background job template and including the background job in the current set of background jobs when the customized software platform includes the prerequisite feature.

  • Automated scheduling of mass data run objects
    Patent number: 8555241
    Abstract: Techniques are described in which indication of a computer application to be configured for use in a particular business enterprise is received. A mass data run object is identified. The mass data run object defines a computer operation to be performed by the computer application to transform business transaction data as part of a business process. The mass data run object identifies i) selection parameters to select business transaction data to be transformed by the computer operation defined by the mass data run object and ii) instructions, that when executed, perform the computer operation to transform the selected business transaction data. A mass data run object instance corresponding to the identified mass data run object is generated and scheduled for execution.
