  • Patent number: 11561982
    Abstract: In a database environment including a plurality of logical object definitions having relationships defined according to a schema, and logical object instances following the logical object definitions include attribute names and respective attribute values indicating status of an enterprise in an enterprise resource planning system, the method can receive a starting exception definition specifying a first query against the logical object instances and derive a new exception definition based on the starting exception definition and one or more stored, acted-upon exception definition proposals. The first query can include one or more initial situational trigger conditions. The new exception definition can specify a second query against the logical object instances and the second query can include one or more modified situational trigger conditions.

  • Patent number: 11455639
    Abstract: Techniques for implementing unsupervised universal anomaly detection for situation handling are disclosed. In some example embodiments, a computer-implemented method comprises detecting an anomaly in a new data point that has corresponding manifestation values for variable categories based on a restriction index for the corresponding manifestation value for at least one of the variable categories in the new data point, and causing a notification of the anomaly in the new data point to be displayed on a computing device based on the detecting of the anomaly. The restriction index for the corresponding manifestation value for the at least one of the variable categories in the new data point may be calculated for the corresponding manifestation value for each other variable category in the plurality of variable categories based on a manifestation space value and a prediction space value that are based on historical data points.

  • Patent number: 10908793
    Abstract: The present disclosure involves systems, software, and computer implemented methods for managing and persisting application interfaces and windows into reusable arrangements. In one example, a method may include identifying a work area of a first user, the work area including a presentation of a plurality of windows, each window associated with an application and receiving a selection of at least one of the plurality of windows in the work area. In response to receiving a request to associate the selected windows with a workplace schema, locations of the selected windows in the work area are determined. The determined locations of the selected windows are stored in a first workplace schema, where the first workplace schema stores the layout of the work area based on the determined locations of the selected windows.

  • Patent number: 10740357
    Abstract: Techniques for identifying a knowledge graph including one or more objects; generating a situation definition based on the knowledge graph, the generating including: identifying a particular object of the one or more objects; determining a trigger condition associated with the particular object; determining related information based on the one or more objects; determining one or more actions associated with the one or more objects and based on: i) the trigger condition, and ii) the related information; associating the trigger, the related information, and the one or more actions with the situation definition; and associating the situation definition with criteria for assignment to one or more user profiles.

  • Patent number: 10713625
    Abstract: According to some embodiments, a source application part may be established having a source data object with a set of source attribute identifiers and associated source attribute values. A target application part may also be established having a target data object with a set of target attribute identifiers. An object reuse platform may then receive, from a user via a graphical interface, an indication that the source data object relates to the target data object. The object reuse platform may then calculate, for each source attribute identifier, a probability that the source attribute identifier is associated with one of the target attribute identifiers.
