Publication number: 20150032655Abstract: The subject matter disclosed herein provides methods for facilitating introductions with new employees using a mobile application. The method may maintain profiles that include one or more new employee and existing employee profiles. The profiles have identifiers that identify the employees. A first request may be received from a mobile program running on a first mobile device of a first employee when the first mobile device is within a predetermined distance of a second mobile device of a second employee. The first request may include an identifier associated with the second employee. A profile of the second employee may be accessed based on the identifier to determine whether the second employee is a new or an existing employee. A notification may be sent to the mobile program running on the first mobile device based on the determination. Related apparatus, systems, techniques, and articles are also described.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 23, 2013Publication date: January 29, 2015Inventors: Bare Said, Robert Getzner

Publication number: 20140358646Abstract: The subject matter disclosed herein provides methods for monitoring the performance of activities by new and existing employees during the onboarding process using a virtual credit system. This method may maintain one or more new employee profiles and existing employee profiles. The new employee profile may include a new employee credit balance, and the existing employee profile may include an existing employee credit balance. The method may track one or more activities. Each activity may be associated with a credit value. Data indicating the performance of an activity by the new employee or existing employee may be received. At least one of the new employee profile or the existing employee profile may be updated based on the received data. The updating may adjust at least one of the new employee credit balance and the existing employee credit balance. Related apparatus, systems, techniques, and articles are also described.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 28, 2013Publication date: December 4, 2014Inventors: Bare Said, Robert Getzner

Patent number: 8504980Abstract: Data changes during transaction processing by a computer system are constrained. An outbound processing sub-component of a first processing component is enabled to change a value of a status variable relating to processing performed on a data object instance by the first processing component. The data object instance includes values for variables and methods capable of being performed by the data object instance. The outbound processing sub-component is configured to trigger subsequent processing steps in a second processing component. The outbound processing sub-component is permitted to change only the status variable and is not permitted to change any other variable.Type: GrantFiled: April 14, 2008Date of Patent: August 6, 2013Assignee: SAP AGInventors: Frank Michael Kraft, Bernhard Thimmel, Stefan Baeuerle, Robert Getzner

Patent number: 8484167Abstract: Embodiments consistent with the present invention relate to methods and systems for verifying data of an application system. Consistent with exemplary embodiments, such methods and systems may send a message including data copied from a first data set processed by a first processing component and then store outbound messaging data describing the sent message. A second processing component may receive the sent message and store inbound messaging data describing the received message. The methods and systems may then verify a consistency of the data of the first and second processing components according to a comparison of the outbound and inbound messaging data.Type: GrantFiled: August 31, 2006Date of Patent: July 9, 2013Assignee: SAP AGInventors: Christoph W. Glania, Thomas G. Wieczorek, Stefan A. Baeuerle, Robert Getzner, Mario A. Mueller, Till Oppert, Peter W. Engel

Patent number: 8370272Abstract: 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 business document message monitoring view, a customs arrangement, and/or a freight list business object.Type: GrantFiled: June 15, 2010Date of Patent: February 5, 2013Assignee: SAP AGInventors: Jochen Wickel, Robert Getzner, Thomas Hammer, Tanjana Preiser-Funke, Monica Reidl, Michael Seubert, Claudia Diesner, Volker Vogelmann, Andre Adam, Waldemar Kramer, Werner Gnan, Eli Pripaz Cohen, Pablo Roisman, Jochen Hirth, Yuval Morad, Elad Heart, Hofit Koren, Orit Harel, Michele Kemp, Lars Hoenig, Thilo Kraehmer

Patent number: 8315988Abstract: Embodiments consistent with the present invention relate to methods and systems for verifying data or data communication operations of an application system. Consistent with exemplary embodiments, such methods and systems may verify a data communication operation by an application system. The methods and systems may, for example, communicate a message including data copied from a first data set and store messaging data describing the communicated message. As described, the methods and systems may then verify the communication of the message based on the first data set and the stored messaging data.Type: GrantFiled: August 31, 2006Date of Patent: November 20, 2012Assignee: SAP AGInventors: Christoph W. Glania, Thomas G. Wieczorek, Stefan A. Baeuerle, Robert Getzner, Mario A. Mueller, Till Oppert, Peter W. Engel

Patent number: 7934219Abstract: The addition of process agents into an application system allows a much simpler integration between business objects by placing the integrating components into separate, independently updateable process agents. Process agents observe business objects with which they are associated and communicate with other process agents. Alternatively, process agents may be notified by business objects to perform communication activities. Thus, a business object may be designed, operated, or updated with complete independence from the surrounding structure of the application system. The logic, application code, and integration components that require specific changes or design in response to changes in the overall application system or real world conditions are placed in the process agent objects, allowing them to be updated, modified or integrated freely without any changes to business objects within the system.Type: GrantFiled: December 29, 2005Date of Patent: April 26, 2011Assignee: SAP AGInventors: Stefan Baeuerle, Guenter Pecht-Seibert, Stefan Adelmann, Robert Getzner

Patent number: 7657575Abstract: A system and method for compensating for disruptions to update transmissions is disclosed. A first application component stores an instance of a business object. The first application component reconciles the instance with data stored on a second application component. The first application component receives a business object update from the second application component. The first application component checks a reconciliation value associated with the business object update. If the first reconciliation value indicates the first business object update was sent after the reconciliation, the first application component applies the business object update to the instance.Type: GrantFiled: December 30, 2005Date of Patent: February 2, 2010Assignee: SAP AGInventors: Peter Eberlein, Guenter Pecht-Seibert, Robert Getzner

Publication number: 20100023339Abstract: A system may include reception of a core event associated with a business object, evaluation of one or more rules based on the core event to identify a business event, construction of a message based on a mapping between the business object and an event interface, the mapping and the event interface associated with the business event and the business object; and publication of the message.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 25, 2008Publication date: January 28, 2010Inventors: Stefan A. Baeuerle, Robert Getzner, Holger Meinert, Franz Weber
