Abstract: The present disclosure involves systems, software, and computer implemented methods for providing a natural language interface for searching a database. One process includes operations for receiving a natural language query. One or more tokens contained in the natural language query are identified. A set of sentences is generated based on the identified tokens, each sentence representing a possible logical interpretation of the natural language query and including a combination of at least one of the identified tokens. At least one sentence in the set of sentences is selected for searching a database based on the identified tokens.

Abstract: A method and system to permit externally created business objects to access a business management application database without using direct database language statements. An add-on framework includes an add-on extension manager to start an add-on application, register a form from the add-on application, and receive and route an event from the business management application to the add-on application through a user interface application programming interface component object model interface. A persistency layer provides a set of programming language classes and interface definitions to develop a persistent business object in the add-on extension, and connect the persistent business object to a database through a data interface application programming interface component object model interface to read and write data from the database associated with the business management application.
