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.
