BSignal turns SAP to be an event-driven system.
Up until now, SAP is considered as a report system, in which you can ask questions (queries, reports) and get answers (on screen, by mail, etc.). Using BSignal, you get full details from SAP when an important business event is really happening. For example, a financial manager can get an announcement when an invoice is issued, and the written amount is above 500K$. This event requires immediate action. Another example is to get a message half an hour before the system falls. That can save a lot of money.
BSignal is based on layers, for example production layers, financial layers, human resources, infrastructures, etc. Each layer includes logically connected business events and measurements and can be extended easily by the customer. For example, the financial layer includes events like irregular amount of invoices and receipts, creating a bank account with strange characteristics and money transfer to another country.
Any of these events result in an immediate announcement from BSignal to a group of users. Each announcement includes a lot of details about the event and links to the event itself inside SAP using a simple URL (BSignal’s unique technology). In this way, the user can just switch to the real SAP environment and see/handle the relevant object (for example, the irregular invoice) when needed.
Using BSignal changes the lives of top managers. Suddenly the CFO knows what’s going on inside SAP and the infrastructure manager can track the systems’ status by mail, SMS or instant messaging (MSN Messenger). Finally, using BSiganl makes SAP more comfortable than ever.
Bsignal is web 2.0 ready and integrated into the organization's portal (SharePoint/SAP Enterprise Portal). That means that each announcement is tagged and graded. Therefore, in order to get a view of what’s going on inside SAP systems from a business perspective, a CEO can view the most important (i.e. top graded) messages in the last hour or any other period of time. You can also search for a specific tag, like all messages for a customer’s name.
