  • Patent number: 10019763
    Abstract: A system stores financial accounting data in a Base ledger, together with overlying extension ledger(s). An engine receives both generic financial data, and financial data utilized for specific purposes. Utilizing a mapping table the engine stores in an underlying Base ledger, the generic financial data (e.g., a fixed asset acquisition). The engine stores in overlying extension ledgers, specific financial data (e.g., a linear asset depreciation and/or an declining balance method of asset depreciation) derived from that generic data. This reduces memory footprint by persisting the generic data in one location only. The stored data may be read utilizing dataviews combining data from Base and extension ledgers. A recursive algorithm may evaluate chain(s) of ledgers. Embodiments may be particularly suited to store in the Base ledger generic financial data common to multiple accounting principles (e.g.

  • Patent number: 9669691
    Abstract: A covering device for a storage area of a motor vehicle having a storage area cover which is at least partly flexible and can be drawn from a storage device against a spring force into a use position. The covering device also has a guiding device that has two guiding rails, which run substantially parallel to each other and in which the guiding elements can be guided, and at least one locking device for releasably locking the guiding elements in the guiding rails. The locking device has a latching protrusion in each guiding rail, a latching lug of the respective guiding element being latchable to the latching protrusion against the spring force, and each latching lug can be lifted over the respective latching protrusion in order to release the lock by tilting the bearing rod in a first direction using an actuating element.

  • Patent number: 8507472
    Abstract: Bicyclic pyridinylpyrazoles of the formula (I) in which the symbols have the meanings given in the description and agrochemically active salts thereof and their use for controlling unwanted microorganisms in crop protection and the protection of materials and for reducing mycotoxins in plants and plant parts, and also processes for preparing compounds of the formula (I).

  • Patent number: 8315974
    Abstract: A computer network architecture for making procurement-related information that has been generated on a transaction level available to data warehousing techniques is described. The network includes a transaction processing layer with at least one accounting component with a general ledger data base for centrally storing information contained in accounted-related data sets, a data warehousing layer and an additional data sourcing layer. A duplicator receives the data sets that will be or have been stored in the general ledger data base and delivers duplicates of those data sets that fulfil a predefined criteria in a procurement context. A source data base stores the duplicated data sets on a data line level. An extractor of the data sourcing layer interfaces with the data warehousing layer and selectively moves data contained in data lines or sets of data lines from the source data base to the data warehousing layer.

  • Patent number: 8140487
    Abstract: Methods, systems and software applications are provided for storing, updating and retrieving key figures. In accordance with one embodiment, a computerized method is provided for storing values of a variable key figure over time. The method comprises storing a value of the key figure in a first data field and assigning an end date to the first data field. Further, the method includes storing a delta value of the key figure in a second data field and assigning a start date to the second data field, wherein the start date is earlier than the end date.

  • Patent number: 7987121
    Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for generating an accounting document. In one implementation, a computer-implemented method is provided. A message is received that includes operational data. An accounting notification is generated that includes the operational data using a first business object. The accounting notification is processed and the accounting document is generated using a second business object. The accounting document includes a number of posting lines corresponding to the operational data. The accounting document is processed and a set of third business objects is assigned to each posting line. The set of third business objects includes at least one general ledger account business object and a plurality of sub-ledger account business objects. One or more data processing tasks are delegated to the one of the third business objects that are assigned to the given posting line.
