Abstract: Example systems and methods of managing product genealogy data across distributed systems are described. In one implementation, a method identifies a material associated with a product that is part of a product batch. Usage information associated with the material is accessed, and a handling unit associated with the product batch is identified. Delivery information associated with the product batch is also accessed. A genealogy is generated for the product batch based on the material, the usage information, the handling unit, and the delivery information.

Abstract: Systems and methods are disclosed for managing data in an advanced planning environment. In one exemplary method, data is managed during the execution of a plurality of planning services, the planning services using one or more objects represented by data stored in a database. The method may include reading a planning profile with at least one process block, the at least one process block including a list of planning services to be executed and a selection profile, the selection profile including selection criteria for specifying which of the objects stored in the database are required for processing the at least one process block.

Abstract: Systems and methods are disclosed for executing services in an advanced planning environment. The services may comprise planning service that are executed using one or more objects stored in a database. Further, a planning profile may be provided, the planning profile including at least one process block containing a list of planning services to be executed. A method for executing services may include reading the planning profile, including a selection profile of the at least one process block of the planning profile. The selection profile may comprise selection criteria for specifying which of the objects stored in the database are required for processing the at least one process block. Further, the method may include accessing the objects stored in the database based on the selection criteria of the selection profile, and executing each planning service in accordance with the list of planning services and the objects accessed from the database.
