20090299952 | SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR AUTOMATIC QUALITY ASSURANCE OF WORKFLOW REPORTS - Systems and methods for automatic quality assurance of reports generated by workflow software may include: instructing a first reporting utility to generate a first report according to a set of parameters, the first report based on data stored in a database; instructing a second reporting utility to generate a second report according to the set of parameters, the second report based on data stored in the database; comparing the first report to the second report; and identifying at least one difference between the first and second report. The method may also include producing appropriate output identifying the differences. The method may also include determining some differences are solely formatting differences between the reports, and ignoring or outputting those differences in a different manner. | 12-03-2009 |
20090300044 | SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR AUTOMATICALLY IDENTIFYING DATA DEPENDENCIES FOR REPORTS - Systems and methods for automatically identifying data dependencies for reports are described. In one embodiment, a method includes: instructing a first reporting utility to generate a first report according to a set of parameters, the first report based on data stored in a database; modifying, directly or indirectly, at least one data element in the database; instructing the first reporting utility to generate a second report according to the set of parameters, the second report based on data stored in the database; comparing the first report to the second report; and identifying, based on the comparison, at least one field within the database used by the first reporting utility to generate the first and second reports. | 12-03-2009 |
20100274662 | SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR GENERATING ADVERTISER RECOMMENDATIONS FROM USERS OF WORKFLOW SOFTWARE - A method for using a workflow server to provide targeted advertisements recommended by users of workflow software includes: receiving, at a server from a user completing a workflow, information corresponding to a step in the workflow and an advertiser, the advertiser recommended by the user in connection with the step in the workflow; identifying, by the server, an advertisement corresponding to the recommended advertiser; and transmitting, from the server to a second client, a markup language page corresponding to the step in the workflow, the markup language page including the identified advertisement. Corresponding systems are also described. | 10-28-2010 |
20110087548 | SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR GENERATING ADVERTISER RECOMMENDATIONS FROM USERS OF WORKFLOW SOFTWARE - A method for displaying targeted advertisements to users of workflow software, based on information corresponding to the workflow, the related industry, and the user of the workflow software includes: receiving, from an identified user, a request to display a step in a workflow, the workflow corresponding to a given industry; determining, based on (i) the identified user, (ii) the step in the workflow, and (iii) the corresponding industry, an advertisement to be displayed in conjunction with the step in the workflow; and transmitting, to the identified user, the requested workflow step and the determined advertisement. Corresponding systems are also described. | 04-14-2011 |
20110145636 | SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR IMPORTING DATA FROM DATA SOURCES OVER A NETWORK WHILE CORRECTING AND TRANSFORMING THE DATA - Systems and methods for importing data from data sources over a network while correcting and transforming the data are described. A data migration server receives data from various data sources. The data migration server repairs and transforms the received data before transmitting the data to a new data server. In some embodiments, the data migration server repairs data before formatting the data, and in other embodiments, the data migration server formats data before repairing the data. The data migration server also verifies the accuracy of the data, either by comparing the data against data requested and received from third-party servers or in reference to other data from the data sources. | 06-16-2011 |
