摘要:
A computer based system is provided that is capable of displaying component and process structures for configurable product classes stored in a data structure. Product classes in the data structure are represented by product nodes. Components, which are abstractions of concrete items used in the product, are represented by component nodes. Component nodes are mapped to each product class with which the component is associated, and are associated with one or more component variants, which are concrete items used in the manufacture of a particular product variant. Process nodes, which are abstractions of actual steps required to produce a product variant, known as process variants, are represented by process nodes. The computer based system can display several alternative views of the data structure. For example, upon receiving a selection for a particular product class, the computer based system converts and can graphically display all component and process nodes associated with that product class. Alternatively, the system can receive input of a product variant and display all component variants used in its production, which is its bill of materials.

摘要:
A computer-implemented system may include one or more storage devices storing first metadata defining an instance of a first metaobject, second metadata defining an instance of a solution supplement metaobject, wherein the second metadata comprises annotations to the first metadata, and wherein the first metaobject and the solution supplement metaobject are instances of a meta-metaobject. Also stored is executable program code of a service to determine merged metadata based on the first metadata and the annotations to the first metadata. A processor is included to execute the executable program code.
摘要:
At least one binary relationship defining an enhancement to a standard meta-object instance can be stored in a meta-data repository. The at least one binary relationship can be specified at design time and can define a dependency required to create an enhanced meta-object instance that includes the standard meta-object instance and the enhancement. The standard meta-object instance can be provided by a core software platform. The enhanced meta-object can include at least one additional feature relating to an external software component integrated into the core software platform. At run time, a request for a custom instance of a data structure based on the enhanced meta-object instance can be received. The custom instance can include a meta-object instance extension specified at design time by a service consumer of the core software platform. Also at run time, a transitive shell representing the custom instance of the data structure can be generated.

The custom instance can include a meta-object instance extension specified at design time by a service consumer of the core software platform. Also at run time, a transitive shell representing the custom instance of the data structure can be generated, for example by traversing the at least one binary relationship to create a template meta-object and applying the meta-object instance extension to the template meta-object to create a current version of the custom instance of the data structure. Related systems, methods, and computer program products are described.
摘要:
Methods and apparatus, including computer program products, provided default values for business objects. In one exemplary embodiment, there is provided a method for providing default values for attributes of business objects. The method may comprise receiving, at a first service provider, a call to instantiate a first business object. The method may then obtain a static default value of an attribute associated with the first business object. A second service provider may be called to determine a dynamic default value for the attribute based on the static default value. The first service provider may then be provided with the dynamic default value for use when instantiating the first business object.
摘要:
A system may include acquisition of metadata defining a first object model including extensible entities, the first object model comprising an instance of a metaobject, acquisition of metadata defining an extension object model, the extension object model to extend at least one of the extensible entities of the first object model, and merging of the object model and the extension object to create metadata defining an extended object model, the extended object model comprising an instance of the metaobject.
摘要:
A context for a service request made by a service consumer can be used to establish a constraint rules set that is applied by a service provider. A context associated with a first service request can be received from a service consumer. An identity of the service consumer can be verified. A constraint value request associated with the service request can be received from a service provider responding to the service request. One or more constraints can be derived from the first context. An identity of a service provider that will fulfill the service request can be verified. The one or more constraints can be provided to the service provider. Related systems, apparatus, methods, and/or articles are also described.
