A system, a method, and a computer program product for deriving target attribute values based on source attributes defined by a hierarchical data mode are disclosed. An attribute value derivation function to change a target attribute data value corresponding to a source attribute stored in a hierarchical data model and an instruction corresponding to the source attribute are provided. The attribute value derivation function is defined by an attribute value derivation header containing metadata describing hierarchical data model and an attribute value derivation instruction for deriving the target attribute based on the source attribute. Using the attribute value derivation function, a target attribute data value is derived. A user interface is generated to display the derived target attribute data value.

Attribute value derivation

A method, a system, and a computer program product for performing maintenance actions and user-specific settings of the attribute value derivation instructions set user interface are disclosed. A maintenance function is provided for changing a target attribute data value corresponding to a source attribute stored in a hierarchical data model. An instruction corresponding to the source attribute is also provided. Using the maintenance function, the target attribute data value is changed. Based on at least one user setting, a user interface for displaying the hierarchical data model and the changed target attribute data value is generated.
