  • Patent number: 9262763
    Abstract: Various embodiments of systems, methods, and software provide attachment-based mass data input and output for a distributed application system. Software for interactive, attachment-based data management may comprise computer readable instructions operable when executed to receive a request from a logically remote client via a network interface, where the request indicates a data file and a business object associated with a business application. The business object is then updated with a message in a format associated with the business application based on the data file. The data file is then stored in a repository and a dependent object (included in, or referenced by, or otherwise associated with the business object) is then updated with a logical location of the data file in the repository.

  • Publication number: 20150379534
    Abstract: Processing power of a database may be leveraged to perform contact engagement analysis efficiently defining target groups. A person-centric data model allows rapid segmentation based upon details of individual contacts, and the nature of their interactions. The data model may recognize multiple facets of a single individual, for example different identifiers for various personal networks (e.g., social media networks, enterprise directories, etc.). Contact engagement analysis may use techniques such as contact classification, filtering, date period selection, and/or tag cloud based topic classification visualization, in order to achieve target group definition. A data model and UI may provide selection tools filtering data of mixed quality, allowing fast overview, and providing selection possibilities of contact groups having different data quality classifications. A tag cloud (e.g., including a time slider) shows topics of interest derived from contact interactions, thus providing visual indications.

  • Patent number: 8719315
    Abstract: A system, method, and computer program product for combining replicated, analytical, and locally generated data in business objects on top of a database are disclosed. Business data are replicated from a first source to an analytics database. Analytical data based on the replicated business data are generated and combined with the replicated business data in the analytics database. Business objects are created to allow access to the analytics database via a user interface. Related apparatus, systems, techniques and articles are also described.

  • Publication number: 20140052591
    Abstract: A system, method, and computer program product for joining logistical and financial data related to procurement spending in a database. Financial data can be replicated from a first source to an analytics database. Procurement data from a second source can be replicated to the analytics database. The financial data can be filtered for procurement-related items to obtain procurement-related financial data. The obtained procurement financial data can be joined with the procurement data in the analytics database based on related information between the financial data and the procurement data. One or more reports based on the joined financial and procurement data can be generated in the analytics database. Related apparatus, systems, techniques and articles are also described.

  • Publication number: 20070162430
    Abstract: A search string is received to be applied to structured data. A concatenated version of the structured data is obtained and the search string is applied to the concatenated version to obtain search results. A list of results is generated and comprises search string correlated information from different portions of the structured data.
