20080208720 | Type-driven rules for financial intellegence - Financial intelligence architecture that employs financial types that are combined with rules to build financial behavior into the product. Types have behaviors such that types can be assigned that lead to the physical creation of underlying code which embodies the behaviors. Extensibility is provided at least by type parameterization and new type creation. Because types are a design time experience, types are two-way and can be modified, even after instantiation. This allows for mixing and matching of types and underlying behavior giving the system more flexibility at design time while providing a huge simplification of all the details that actually go into such financial applications. The type library is a set of rules that produce metadata, which metadata is later processed by a separate engine to produce the physical schema. The type library defines the basic interactions, data types, and behaviors for predefined dimensions in the system. | 08-28-2008 |
20090006301 | MULTI-PLATFORM BUSINESS CALCULATION RULE LANGUAGE AND EXECUTION ENVIRONMENT - Computer-readable storage media, computer-implemented methods, and systems are disclosed for a multi-platform calculation rule language and its environment. A calculation rule, presented in an expression language and specifying one or more functions, is received. The expression language, for a plurality of different platforms, allows each of a plurality of functions to be expressed using a common syntax. A selected platform is identified on which the calculation rule is to be executed. The calculation rule is resolved to the attributes of the data model in the selected platform to apply the calculation rule to the data model. The calculation rule is executed by performing the one or more functions specified in the calculation rule, and the results from executing the calculation rule are reported. | 01-01-2009 |
20100125471 | FINANCIAL JOURNALS IN FINANCIAL MODELS OF PERFORMANCE SERVERS - Architecture that employs a journal assignment that can be created on demand when journal is created, and operates outside the business cycle. The assignment is routed to reviewers and approvers based on predefined company policy that users define. The assignment encloses a changelist of data changes created by the journal. The changelist is used for rendition and calculation for reviewers and approvers (in addition to the journal contributor) to view/verify and modify the data as if the data is already written into the model. At the time that other users access this model, the data is not present. At the end of the successful workflow chain the changelist is written into the model. If failed, the changelist will be used as that basis for correction or the user can discard the changelist. | 05-20-2010 |
20110238653 | PARSING AND INDEXING DYNAMIC REPORTS - A parsing and indexing mechanism for dynamically generated reports is provided. Upon detection of a dynamically generated report, a data source for the dynamically generated report may be identified based on metadata or other information associated with the report. Crawleable or machine readable metadata and data may be generated using the data source such that data represented in the report and/or other relevant data from the data source can be indexed and searched. | 09-29-2011 |
