  • Persistence of master data in a multi-tenant software delivery architecture
    Patent number: 8849751
    Abstract: A first tenant-nonspecific database table on a repository accessible to an application server of a multi-tenant software delivery architecture can maintain a first record designating a first predefined generic field of a plurality of predefined generic fields. The first record can include an organization-specific master data field definition of the first predefined generic field maintained in a first tenant-specific definition field assigned to a first customer tenant of a plurality of customer tenants that are accessible via the application server. Each customer tenant of the plurality of customer tenants can provide a discrete organization-specific business configuration of a core software platform. A second tenant-nonspecific database table maintained on the repository can maintain a second record that can include a key value designating the first tenant, a record designator, and an organization-specific master data value corresponding to the first predefined generic field.

  • MANAGING CONSISTENT INTERFACES FOR CAMPAIGN RESPONSE OPTION, SALES TARGET PLAN, SALES PRICE LIST AND SALES SPECIFICATION BUSINESS OBJECTS ACROSS HETEROGENEOUS SYSTEMS
    Publication number: 20130030867
    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 campaign response option, a sales target plan, a sales price list and a sales specification business object.
