Abstract
Embodiments of the present invention address deficiencies of the art in respect to messaging and provide a method, system and computer program product for business object integration with messaging. In an embodiment of the invention, a method for messaging integration of a business object can be provided. The method can include embedding a business object in message text in a messaging session provided by a messenger, and applying an action to the business object from within the messaging session of the messenger. The method further can include forwarding a copy of the message text to a backend business component as a justification to the applied action.
Claims15
A computer-implemented method for messaging integration of a business object comprising:
- embedding, in a message session provided by a messenger executing on a client, the business object into message text;
- applying, from within the message session, an action to the business object;
- forwarding, by the client and based upon the applied action, a copy of the message text to a backend business component separate from the client,
- indexing tags for the business object when indexing the message text for a message session in a message transcript;
- and
- searching the business object along with the message text of the message session in the message transcript with contextual relevance, wherein
- the business object encapsulates lower-level objects that implement a business process.
A client computer configured for messaging integration of a business object comprising:
- at least one hardware processor configured to initiate the following executable operations:
- embedding, in a message session provided by a messenger, the business object into message text;
- applying, from within the message session, an action to the business object;
- forwarding, by the client and based upon the applied action, a copy of the message text to a backend business component separate from the client computer,
- indexing tags for the business object when indexing the message text for a message session in a message transcript;
- and
- searching the business object along with the message text of the message session in the message transcript with contextual relevance, wherein
- the business object encapsulates lower-level objects that implement a business process.
A computer program product, comprising:
- a storage hardware device having stored therein computer readable program code for messaging integration of a business object,
- the computer readable program code, which when executed by a client computer, causes the client computer to perform the following:
- embedding, in a message session provided by a messenger executing on the client computer, the business object into message text;
- applying, from within the message session, an action to the business object;
- forwarding, by the client computer and based upon the applied action, a copy of the message text to a backend business component separate from the client computer,
- indexing tags for the business object when indexing the message text for a message session in a message transcript;
- and
- searching the business object along with the message text of the message session in the message transcript with contextual relevance, wherein
- the business object encapsulates lower-level objects that implement a business process.
