Managing Business Process in Distributed Systems: Requirements, Models, and Implementation

This paper describes a case study for teaching purposes which enables students of
Business Informatics and Economics to jointly work on B2B processes from modeling to
implementation and execution. The teaching materials are based on a practical example and
show how B2B processes can be integrated using a business process management system.
Special focus is given to the goal of making the business processes as realistic as possible. An
introduction to the technologies used (Simulated SAP Environment, modeling software ARIS
Design Platform, workflow management system SAP Business Workflow and the SAP Exchange
Infrastructure) is part of the teaching material.
