Receiving an unlimited number of data items modified by a web transaction

A computer program product, comprising a computer-readable hardware storage device having a computer-readable program code stored therein, said program code configured to be executed by a processor of a computer system to implement a method for receiving an unlimited number of data items modified by a Web transaction, the method comprising:

• the processor directly requesting a service from a Web-service program, wherein the request comprises a set of accounting data items organized into a purchasing document and further comprises a client identifier, wherein the client identifier comprises information that allows the Web-service program to locate and directly communicate to the processor and further allows a Web-interface program to locate and directly communicate to the processor, and wherein the Web-interface program is distinct from the Web-service program and is functionally independent of the Web-service program;
• the processor receiving from the Web-service program a user-session identifier and a Web-interface program identifier, wherein the Web-interface program identifier comprises information that allows the processor to locate and directly communicate to the Web-interface program;
• the processor initiating a user session as a function of the user-session identifier and the Web-interface program identifier and as a further function of a storage location of the purchasing document on an accounting-data storage device, wherein the initiating comprises a direct communication from the processor to the Web-interface program without involvement of the Web-service program, wherein the user session comprises direct communications between the processor and the Web-interface program without involvement of the Web-service program, and wherein the set of accounting data items is modified during the user session;
• the processor directing the Web-interface program to store the modified set of accounting data items on the accounting-data storage device, wherein the processor does not directly access the accounting-data storage device, and wherein the directing is performed without involvement of the Web-service program;
• the processor terminating the user session, wherein the terminating comprises a direct communication from the processor to the Web-interface program without involvement of the Web-service program;
• the processor requesting a service result from the Web-service program, wherein the service result comprises the stored modified set of accounting data items, and wherein the request for a service result is communicated directly to the Web-service program without interaction between the processor and the Web-interface program;
• and
• the processor receiving the stored modified set of accounting data items directly from the Web-service program without involvement of the Web-interface program.

A computer system comprising a processor, a memory coupled to said processor, and a computer-readable hardware storage device coupled to said processor, said storage device containing program code configured to be run by said processor via the memory to implement a method for receiving an unlimited number of data items modified by a Web transaction, the method comprising:

• the processor directly requesting a service from a Web-service program, wherein the request comprises a set of accounting data items organized into a purchasing document and further comprises a client identifier, wherein the client identifier comprises information that allows the Web-service program to locate and directly communicate to the processor and further allows a Web-interface program to locate and directly communicate to the processor, and wherein the Web-interface program is distinct from the Web-service program and is functionally independent of the Web-service program;
• the processor receiving from the Web-service program a user-session identifier and a Web-interface program identifier, wherein the Web-interface program identifier comprises information that allows the processor to locate and directly communicate to the Web-interface program;
• the processor initiating a user session as a function of the user-session identifier and the Web-interface program identifier and as a further function of a storage location of the purchasing document on an accounting-data storage device, wherein the initiating comprises a direct communication from the processor to the Web-interface program without involvement of the Web-service program, wherein the user session comprises direct communications between the processor and the Web-interface program without involvement of the Web-service program, and wherein the set of accounting data items is modified during the user session;
• the processor directing the Web-interface program to store the modified set of accounting data items on the accounting-data storage device, wherein the processor does not directly access the accounting-data storage device, and wherein the directing is performed without involvement of the Web-service program;
• the processor terminating the user session, wherein the terminating comprises a direct communication from the processor to the Web-interface program without involvement of the Web-service program;
• the processor requesting a service result from the Web-service program, wherein the service result comprises the stored modified set of accounting data items, and wherein the request for a service result is communicated directly to the Web-service program without interaction between the processor and the Web-interface program;
• and
• the processor receiving the stored modified set of accounting data items directly from the Web-service program without involvement of the Web-interface program.

A process for supporting computer infrastructure, said process comprising providing at least one support service for at least one of creating, integrating, hosting, maintaining, and deploying computer-readable program code in a computer system, wherein the program code in combination with said computer system is configured to implement a method for receiving an unlimited number of data items modified by a Web transaction, the method comprising:

• a processor of a computer system directly requesting a service from a Web-service program, wherein the request comprises a set of accounting data items organized into a purchasing document and further comprises a client identifier, wherein the client identifier comprises information that allows the Web-service program to locate and directly communicate to the processor and further allows a Web-interface program to locate and directly communicate to the processor, and wherein the Web-interface program is distinct from the Web-service program and is functionally independent of the Web-service program;
• the processor receiving from the Web-service program a user-session identifier and a Web-interface program identifier, wherein the Web-interface program identifier comprises information that allows the processor to locate and directly communicate to the Web-interface program;
• the processor initiating a user session as a function of the user-session identifier and the Web-interface program identifier and as a further function of a storage location of the purchasing document on an accounting-data storage device, wherein the initiating comprises a direct communication from the processor to the Web-interface program without involvement of the Web-service program, wherein the user session comprises direct communications between the processor and the Web-interface program without involvement of the Web-service program, and wherein the set of accounting data items is modified during the user session;
• the processor directing the Web-interface program to store the modified set of accounting data items on the accounting-data storage device, wherein the processor does not directly access the accounting-data storage device, and wherein the directing is performed without involvement of the Web-service program;
• the processor terminating the user session, wherein the terminating comprises a direct communication from the processor to the Web-interface program without involvement of the Web-service program;
• the processor requesting a service result from the Web-service program, wherein the service result comprises the stored modified set of accounting data items, and wherein the request for a service result is communicated directly to the Web-service program without interaction between the processor and the Web-interface program;
• and
• the processor receiving the stored modified set of accounting data items directly from the Web-service program without involvement of the Web-interface program.
