Abstract: The present invention is directed to methods and systems for implementing enterprise application-based micro-blogging. The method includes receiving a micro-blog registration for an enterprise application for at least one user, verifying the role and access level of the user, and based on the registration, the role, and access level, receiving setting information from the at least one user to configure following of at least one object associated with the enterprise application. The method further includes recording an event to the micro-blog for the at least one object, determining that the at least one user is configured to follow the at least one object, and in response to following the at least one object, receiving a notification that at least one update to the at least one object has occurred. Further, the method includes displaying, in real-time, within the enterprise application-based micro-blog the at least one update to the at least one object to the at least one user.

Abstract: Data that describes asset attributes is stored in an asset information repository. One of the attributes corresponds to assets' financial application defined location. A network device is detected that links the assets to a network. Device identifiers, through which the assets link with the network, are identified. The device identifiers are mapped to a physical location associated with the network device. The physical location is used to derive a financial location, which is compared to the financial location defined for the asset by a financial system. Mismatches may be identified and reconciled.
