Systems and methods are provided that syndicate enterprise application system (EAS) data. A method includes creating a feed for an EAS module, generating a news item for the feed, and publishing the news item on the feed. Accordingly, employees in an organization are able to easily become aware of information about their organization by tightly coupling a syndication system to human resources management. The sharing of information throughout the organization creates a more inclusive and cohesive working environment. In one embodiment, the EAS data is enterprise resource planning (ERP) data.

Syndicating enterprise application system data

Embodiments of the present invention are directed to user interfaces and more particularly to techniques for providing user interface which allows users to select filtering criteria and display filtered information accordingly. In various embodiments, related information is displayed on a hierarchical chart as nodes that are connected to one another. The hierarchical chart is updated after filtering criteria are applied, and the display visibility of the nodes are changed based on the filtering results. The hierarchical relationships among the nodes are maintained before and after the filtering process. In a specific embodiment, the nodes that do not meet filtering criteria are displayed at a low visibility level on the hierarchical chart.

Method and system for providing graphical user interface having filtering capability

Systems and methods are disclosed herein for managing task requests. An end-user device include one or several possible implementation for managing task requests. Specifically, the end-user device comprises a processing device and a memory device, which is configured to store a task request managing program. The processing device is configured to execute the task request managing program. The processing device is configured to analyze a string of characters of a natural language request from a user to extract a requested task and a requested object. The processing device is further configured to check whether the user is permitted to initiate the requested task on the requested object. In addition, the processing device is configured to perform the requested task on the requested object when it is determined that the user is permitted to initiate the requested task on the requested object.

Managing requests to initiate tasks within an organization

The present invention is directed to a method and system for providing a user interface representing organization hierarchy wherein a group of entities can be displayed as a node, and the node is displayed as a part of a hierarchical chart. In various embodiments, the present invention provides a graphical user interface displaying nodes that represent groups of entities, and the nodes are displayed as a part of a hierarchical chart based on the hierarchical relationship among the nodes that represent groups of entities. In various embodiments, a user is able to select actions for a group of entities displayed on the same node. Based on various criteria, nodes displaying one group of entities may, based on user selections of different grouping criteria, display a different group of entities. There are other features as well, in the graphical interface.

Method and system for displaying group relationships in a graphical user interface

A method and system for providing a graphical user interface with contextual views. In various embodiments, the present invention provides a graphical user interface that allows the changing contents of a global menu in the graphical display based upon the selected nodes that belong to a hierarchical chart. Only those actions applicable (contextual) to the selected nodes will be determined and displayed in the menu. Accordingly, the contents of the selectable options are updated based upon the selected nodes. When more than one node is selected, the displayed selectable actions are an intersection of the actions permitted for each selected node. In a specific embodiment, a comparison menu is provided to allow the user to be able to compare unique corresponding properties of selected nodes.

Method and system for providing graphical user interface with contextual view

Systems and methods are provided that combine private contact information and Enterprise Application System ('EAS') data in a directory. An embodiment includes receiving private contact information regarding a first employee from a second employee, storing the private contact information regarding the first employee on an EAS server, and displaying the private contact information to the second employee upon request, wherein the private contact information is viewable only to the second employee.

Combined directory of personal and enterprise application system data

Systems, methods, and associated software for detecting presence are described with respect to a number of embodiments of the present disclosure. More particularly, presence information can be displayed on a floor plan, according to the teachings herein. In one implementation, a method for monitoring the presence of a person is described in which the name of a person of interest is received from a requestor. The requestor and the person of interest are both associated with an organization. The method also includes retrieving information regarding a first work area associated with the person of interest and reproducing a section of a floor plan containing at least the first work area. Furthermore, the method includes sending the section of the floor plan to the requestor. The method also includes retrieving information regarding the person of interest associated with the first work area. A name field, which includes the name and the presence status of the person of interest, is sent to the requestor.
