SAP NetWeaver BPM
By: Vasco Alexander Schmidt
Does data synchronization really have to be so complicated? Components such as the process composer in SAP NetWeaver Business Process Management (SAP NetWeaver BPM),simplifies process coordination.
With the new version of SAP NetWeaver BPM, companies can implement new business processes – for requests, posting, and approval, for example – without additional programming effort.

“Our initial question was, does data synchronization really have to be so complicated?” says Gregor Hackenbroich, program manager for data management and analytics at SAP Research. As anyone who calls up the process composer in SAP NetWeaver BPM can see, the answer is clearly no. “The system automatically identifies which fields are highly likely to match,” explains Hackenbroich.
These include name, address, currency, and date fields. The user is only required to check that the suggested field pairs do actually match – a process that obviously takes much less time than manually scrolling through the long lists of fields to find the right pairs.
