SocializaAon
is

according
to
a

Dic=onary:

a
con?nuing
process
whereby
an
individual
acquires
a
personal
iden?ty
and
learns
the

norms,
values,
behaviour,
and
social
skills
appropriate
to
his
or
her
social
posi?on.

according
to
Philosophy:

the
process
by
which
human
infants
begin
to
acquire
the
skills
necessary
to
perform
as

a
func?oning
member
of
their
society;
it
is
the
most
inﬂuen?al
learning
process
one

can
experience

What’s
SocializaAon?

Enterprise
Resource
Planning
is

according
to
a
Dic=onary:

accoun?ng-‐oriented
informa?on
systems
for
iden?fying
and
planning
the
enterprise
wide

resources
needed
to
collect,
make,
distribute,
and
manage
accoun?ng
for
customer
orders.

ERP
systems
were
originally
extensions
of
MRP
II
systems

according
to
Wikipedia:

is
business
management
so`ware,
typically
a
suite
of
integrated
applica?ons,
that
a

company
can
use
to
collect,
store,
manage
and
interpret
data
from
many
business

ac?vi?es,
including:

• 

Product
planning,
cost

• 

Manufacturing
or
service
delivery

• 

Marke?ng
and
sales

• 

Inventory
management

• 

Shipping
and
payment

What’s
Enterprise
resource
planning
(ERP)
?

What’s
Company
management

Company
management
involves
iden?fying
the
mission,
objec?ves,

procedures,
rules
and
management
of
the
human
capital
of
an

enterprise
to
contribute
to
the
success
of
the
enterprise.

Management
does
not
need
to
be
seen
only
from
an
enterprise

point
of
view,
because
management
is
an
essen?al
func?on
to

improve
one's
life
and
rela?onships.

This implies effective communication.

Typical
use
of
ERP
System
in
decision
process
is
based
on
the
fact
that
humans
must

search
each
informa?on
they
need
for
that
process.

Humans
must
run
inquiries
in
the
ERP
System
to
collect
each
informa?on.

Usually
an
employee
each
morning
must
connect
to
the
ERP,
and
execute
some

ac?vi?es
to
extract
reports
and
prints,
and
use
them
in
his
decision
processes

Typical
decision
process.

In other words, the standard use of ERP
is in PULL mode, the ERP contains the
information.
But you must pull data from it.

Typical
decision
process.

• each
actor
must
search
and
extract

informa?on

• many
informa?on
will
be
show
in
a

report
or
a
document

• only
human
can
extract
data
and

analyse
it
to
make
a
decision

The
most
important
"actor"
is

a
Document.

What’s
the
link
?

Between
Enterprise
Resource
Planing
and
Company
Management,
each

component
involved
in
running
your
business,
produces
ﬁnally
documents;
but

this
need
also
to
pass
through
human
ac?vi?es,
to
achieve
the
goals.

Human is also a main focus in your Business Activities

Why
don’t
try
to
shi`
the
focus
from
Documents
to
Persons ?

Next
Step

Imagine
this
scenario:

I
am
a
Member
of
a
set
of
Communities

These
Communi?es
work
to
deﬁne
a
new
strategy
to
sell
a
new
product.

In
this
Communi?es
we
have
some
Actors
like:

  Project
Manager

  Product
Manager

  Marke?ng
Expert

  Designer

Each
actor
working
together
to
join
in

goal,
and
some?me
they
needs
some

data
ﬁnd
in
Company
ERP
or
CRM

We
have
a
new
Actor
!

The
new

concept
is:
Permit
a
Socializa?on
process
of
your
ERP

The
leading
idea
is:

SAP
can
send
some
informa?on
to
the
communi?es,
to
help

members
to
complete
decisional
process.

So you have a new
colleague: Mr SAP.

The
new
Scenario
is
ready

Human are the main focus in a new decisional process where my ERP
collaborates with them in Decisional Communities.
We have completed in this way our transformation to :
Social Enterprise
Collaboration

Behind
the
scenes,
First
Step
(to
CNX)

Some
SAP
func?on
have
a
special
workflow
step
to
publish
some
alert
in
the

Connec?ons
Ac?vity
Stream
or
Blog
post
using
a
specific
SAP-‐Bapi:

basic
idea
is:
SAP-‐BAPI,
when
a
specific
situa?on
happens,
create
a
json/xml
data

and
POST
it
on
Connec?ons,
like
an
alert
to
user

Behind
the
scenes,
Next
Step
(to
CNX)

One
module
creates
an
Interface
gateway
with
SAP
Bapi
(cnx
Bapi)
and
uses
Cnx

API
to
publish
informa?on
to
Connec?ons.

This
Module
receives
a
request
from
SAP
and
via
Cnx
API
publishes
on
Ac?vity

Stream
or
Blog
Post
that
informa?on;

it
can
also
receive
requests
from
Connec?ons
and
invoke
SAP
Bapi.

and
employees.

It
can
help
organiza?ons
deliver
excep?onal
digital

•  ︎

Interact
with
the
appropriate
back-‐end
applica?ons,
such
as
SAP

applica?ons,
to
extend
core
business
processes
to
all
users
and
customers.

•  ︎

Provide
relevant,
highly
personalized
experience
according
to
the
user’s

preferences,
behaviors,
loca?on,
and
device.

•  ︎

Deliver
consistent
experiences
across
mul?ple
online
channels.

•  ︎

Engage
through
online
communi?es,
social
interac?on,
and

collabora?on.

•  ︎

Empower
business
owners
to
manage
the
crea?on
and

You
can
use
the
IBM®
Digital
Data
Connector
(DDC)
for
WebSphere®
Portal
framework

to
integrate
data
from
external
data
sources
on
your
portal
pages
by
using
IBM
Web

Content
Manager
presenta?on
components.
External
data
means
that
the
data
does

not
need
to
be
stored
directly
in
IBM
Web
Content
Manager
or
must
use
live
data.

With
Digital
Data
Connector,
your
website

designers
can
use
Web
Content
Manager

presenta?on
components
to
generate
the
web

page
markup
for
your
external
data.
They
can
use

all
the
Web

management

facili?es
for
managing

The
Digital
Data
Connector
is
a
secret
weapon
from
IBM!
It
gives
you
the
possibility

to
use
WCM
and
WCM
design
components
to
render
any
external
data,
with
likle-‐
to-‐no
java

or

A
DDC

is
used
to
define
the
transforma?on

from
your
specific

a
generic
list

structure
and
enumerate
the

The
major
beneﬁts
of
this
approach
include
the
following:

•  Your
Web
Content
Manager
designers
can
fully
control
the
visual
appearance
of
the

integrated
data.

•  They
can
visualize
the
external
data
in
the
same
way
in
which
they
visualize
data
that
is

stored
in
Web
Content
Manager.

•  As
a
result,
they
can
visualize
the
external
data
in
a
way
that
is
consistent
with
the

corporate
design
of
your
overall
website
by
reusing
exis?ng
Web
Content
Manager

components.

•  To
quickly
adjust
exis?ng
visualiza?ons
of
your
data
or
create
new
visualiza?ons
for
new

kinds
of
external
data,
you
no
longer
need
the
help
of
so`ware
developers
or
the
IT

department.
Your
website
designers
can
start
working
on
the
presenta?on
templates

directly
from
your
portal
pages
that
show
the
data.
They
use
the
inline

capabili?es

of
Web
Content
Manager.

•  Your
website
designers
make
updates
to
the
Web
Content
Manager
design
components
in

project
scope.
This
way,
they
can
keep
updates
in
dra`
stage
un?l
all
updates
to
the

project
are
completed,
approved,
and
ﬁnally
published.

Use
Digital

in
the
following
ways:

•  You
can
code
a
Java
plug-‐in,
a
so-‐called
DDC
plug-‐in,
that
hooks
into

the
DDC.
The
plug-‐in
loads
the
external
data
and
transforms
it
into
a

generic
DDC
data
structure,
so-‐called
bean
lists.
You
can
then
have

the
bean
lists
rendered
on
your
portal
pages
by
using
standard
Web

Content

rendering
methods.

•  You
can
use
the
generic

plug-‐in
that
is
built
into

You
can
use
this

The
Script
Portlet
has
the
following
advantages:

•  Users
have
more
autonomy
and
less
dependence
on
central
IT
for
portlet

development,
which
decreases
the
?me
to
market.

•  Users
need
less
skill
to
be
produc?ve
WebSphere
Portal
developers.

•  Users
control
access
and
workﬂow
processes
in
enterprise
seyngs.

•  Users
can
create
reusable
assets
and
contents.

•  Users
can

Direct
integra?on
with
SAP
applica?ons
using
SAP
Java
connector
(SAP
JCo)
to
access

SAP
RFC-‐enabled
BAPIs.

This
is
a
quick
and
easy
approach
to
create
portlets
that
work
with
SAP
applica?ons.

Anyone
with
access
to
an
SAP
server
can
browse
and
directly
access
the
SAP
RFC-‐
enabled
BAPIs.

New
user
experiences
can
be
rapidly
created
and
deployed
to
meet
changing
business

requirements.

This
approach
offers
flexibility
because
you
can
reuse
the
data
as
you
refine
the
user

experience
and
build
new
ones.
By
separa?ng
SAP
applica?on
integra?on
from
the
user

experience,
it
also
buffers
the
user
experience
from
any
changes
on
the
back-‐end
SAP

system

User
creden?als
can
be
passed
to
SAP
applica?ons
through
the
IBM
Web
Experience

Factory
builders,
thereby
enabling
you
to
create
a
custom
experience
that
accesses

SAP
without
the
user
even
knowing
it.
This
token-‐passing
infrastructure
can
use

provided
by

you

create

you
use

from

Each

has

Use
the
SAP

builder
to
execute
an

exported
SAP
batch
input.

Using
features
in
the
builder,
you
can

parameterize
values
of
the
batch
process.

Addi?onally,
values
of
the
batch
can
be

designated

This
builder
parses
a
recorded
SAP
batch

transac?on
that
has
been
exported
to

The

displays
the

in

and
you
can
specify

for
the

if

this

In

you
