Systems and methods are provided for building and implementing formulas. The systems and methods may treat operands in a formula as having a value and a unit type or dimension and may recognize the compatibility of unit types among operands. One embodiment performs automatic error checking of a formula based on the value and dimension of the operands and the expected result. The automatic error checking may be performed to assist a user in defining and building a formula. Another embodiment performs automatic unit conversion based on the value and unit type of the formula’s operands. The automatic unit conversion may be performed when applying data to the formula during runtime or execution of an application program.

The present invention relates to a computer system for storing a set of data (DS) obtained from a data source (103; 303; 403), the set of data comprising a set of attribute or field names and respective attribute or field values, the computer system comprising: means (127, 128, 129; 327; 428, 429) for storing object type definitions, each object type definition comprising an object type name (Oj) and at least a set of defining characteristics (MOj) and a set of role names (MRj), means (128; 428) for storing role definitions, each role definition comprising a role name (Ri) and at least a set of controlling characteristics (MCOi), means (130; 430) for storing a list of prioritized finding rules (RUk), each finding rule comprising a condition for application to values of the set of data and one of the object types that is returned when the condition is fulfilled, means (122, 125, 126; 426; 325; 326) for storing objects that are instances of the object types, means (122, 123; 323; 324; 423) for storing mass data referring to objects, a set of inbound interfaces (112; 312; 412),
摘要:
A business object model, which reflects data that is used during a given business transaction, is utilized to generate interfaces. This business object model facilitates commercial transactions by providing consistent interfaces that are suitable for use across industries, across businesses, and across different departments within a business during a business transaction.

Systems and methods are provided for configuring software. The software may be configured with wizard-like configuration levels, including configuration levels that may overlay previous ones. In one embodiment, a computer-implemented method is provided for configuring software. The method may include prompting a user to select a scenario for configuring the software, receiving, as input, a selected scenario from the user and further prompting the user to enter configuration data based on the selected business scenario. The method may also include applying at least one template to generate at least one configuration statement for the software, wherein the at least one template comprises a set of rules for generating the configuration statement based on the configuration data entered by the user.
