Office Business Applications
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Office Business Applications (OBA) is a term for software applications that use the Microsoft Office system (such as Outlook, Word, or Excel) as the user interface for an application.[1]
Applications and documents can be extended to add enterprise-specific features, and different line of business (LOB) systems can be integrated with Microsoft Office to make the LOB system more accessible.
OBAs employ a composite application architecture and link the 2007 Microsoft Office System applications running on the desktop to custom and off-the-shelf Line of Business (LOB) applications running on remote servers.
