SAP unveils new mobile solutions

SAP AG has unveiled new mobile solutions and enhancements to existing mobile
applications that help companies extend their business processes to information
workers via mobile devices. New capabilities for the existing suite of SAP
mobile solutions, named 'SAP xApps composite applications for mobile business,'
will help information workers be more productive and make better business
decisions.

The company also announced the latest version of SAP NetWeaver Mobile, a
mobile infrastructure that provides the foundation for SAP mobile solutions and
enables organiza­tions to easily build customized applications by leveraging the
flexibility of enterprise SOA.

The company also demonstrated continued momentum in the mobile market with
more than 850 customers and a 50 percent increase in its mobile business YoY.
Because the solutions are seamlessly integrated with SAP Business Suite and can
be combined with non-SAP solutions, developers can select the exact business
processes and data their remote users need.

SAP has extended its existing SAP xApp Mobile Sales composite application,
which provides remote access to customer and product infor­mation. New
capabilities allow sales staff to conduct trade promotion evaluations and access
customer feedback instantly while on the road.

Also sales representatives will be able to use their mobile devices to more
effectively audit sales and manage customer profiles.
