Systems and methods for determining data dependency for dynamic tiles

Abstract

A system and method to dynamically update a data field are disclosed. In some embodiments, data may be received from a plurality of databases and organized into a plurality of data fields. A first data field may be associated with a single database of the plurality of databases. A user may modify the first data field and the system and method may identify a dependency between the first data field and at least a second data field. The second data field may be updated based on the dependency between the first data field and the second data field.

What is claimed is: 
     
         1 . A method to dynamically update a data field, the method comprising:
 receiving data from a plurality of databases;   organizing the received data into a plurality of data fields, wherein a first data field is associated with a single database of the plurality of databases;   receiving a modification to the first data field of the plurality of data fields;   identifying, by a computer, a dependency between the first data field and other data fields of the plurality of data fields; and   updating a second data field of the plurality of data fields based on the dependency between the first data field and the other data fields, wherein the second data field is updated if the second data field is dependent upon the first data field.   
     
     
         2 . The method of  claim 1 , wherein the dependency between the first data field and the other data fields of the plurality of data fields comprises an indication that a modification to the first data field requires an updating of at least one data field of the other data fields. 
     
     
         3 . The method of  claim 1 , further comprising:
 displaying a plurality of dynamic tiles based on a user selection of a first entry, wherein a first dynamic tile comprises at least one of the data fields and is associated with a first query;   receiving a user selection of a second entry; and   executing the first query associated with the first dynamic tile in response to the user selection.   
     
     
         4 . The method of  claim 3 , wherein the execution of the first query is performed without a user input of a query, the method further comprising:
 displaying the first dynamic tile with at least one updated data field in response to the execution of the first query, wherein the at least one updated data field is at least partly based on the user selection of the second entry.   
     
     
         5 . The method of  claim 1 , wherein the first data field is associated with a first database and the second data field is associated with a second database, the updating of the second data field results in the querying of the second database based on the modification of the first data field. 
     
     
         6 . The method of  claim 5 , wherein the first database and the second database are independent of each other such that the first database and the second database are associated with different locations and different administrators. 
     
     
         7 . The method of  claim 1 , wherein the method is to facilitate an import or export compliance environment. 
     
     
         8 . A non-transitory computer readable medium carrying one or more instructions to dynamically update a data field, wherein the one or more instructions, when executed by one or more processors, causes the one or more processors to perform the steps of:
 receiving data from a plurality of databases;   organizing the received data into a plurality of data fields, wherein a first data field is associated with a single database of the plurality of databases;   receiving a modification to the first data field of the plurality of data fields;   identifying a dependency between the first data field and other data fields of the plurality of data fields; and   updating a second data field of the plurality of data fields based on the dependency between the first data field and the other data fields, wherein the second data field is updated if the second data field is dependent upon the first data field.   
     
     
         9 . The non-transitory computer readable medium of  claim 8 , wherein the dependency between the first data field and the other data fields of the plurality of data fields comprises an indication that a modification to the first data field requires an updating of at least one data field of the other data fields. 
     
     
         10 . The non-transitory computer readable medium of  claim 8 , wherein the steps further comprise:
 displaying a plurality of dynamic tiles based on a user selection of a first entry, wherein a first dynamic tile comprises at least one of the data fields and is associated with a first query;   receiving a user selection of a second entry; and   executing the first query associated with the first dynamic tile in response to the user selection.   
     
     
         11 . The non-transitory computer readable medium of  claim 10 , wherein the execution of the first query is performed without a user input of a query, the steps further comprise:
 displaying the first dynamic tile with at least one updated data field in response to the execution of the first query, wherein the at least one updated data field is at least partly based on the user selection of the second entry.   
     
     
         12 . The non-transitory computer readable medium of  claim 8 , wherein the first data field is associated with a first database and the second data field is associated with a second database, the updating of the second data field results in the querying of the second database based on the modification of the first data field. 
     
     
         13 . The non-transitory computer readable medium of  claim 12 , wherein the first database and the second database are independent of each other such that the first database and the second database are associated with different locations and different administrators. 
     
     
         14 . The non-transitory computer readable medium of  claim 8 , wherein the steps are to facilitate an import or export compliance environment. 
     
     
         15 . A system, comprising at least one processor and memory, to dynamically update a data field, the system comprising:
 a module to receive data from a plurality of databases;   a module to organize the received data into a plurality of data fields, wherein a first data field is associated with a single database of the plurality of databases;   a module to receive a modification to the first data field of the plurality of data fields;   a module to identify a dependency between the first data field and other data fields of the plurality of data fields; and   a module to update a second data field of the plurality of data fields based on the dependency between the first data field and the other data fields, wherein the second data field is updated if the second data field is dependent upon the first data field.   
     
     
         16 . The system of  claim 15 , wherein the dependency between the first data field and the other data fields of the plurality of data fields comprises an indication that a modification to the first data field requires an updating of at least one data field of the other data fields. 
     
     
         17 . The system of  claim 15 , further comprising:
 a module to display a plurality of dynamic tiles based on a user selection of a first entry, wherein a first dynamic tile comprises at least one of the data fields and is associated with a first query;   a module to receive a user selection of a second entry; and   a module to execute the first query associated with the first dynamic tile in response to the user selection.   
     
     
         18 . The system of  claim 17 , wherein the execution of the first query is performed without a user input of a query, the system further comprises:
