A context control interface may include a context name field that is arranged and configured to identify a working context, one or more attribute name fields that are configured to identify one or more attributes that define the working context and one or more attribute value fields that are arranged and configured to correspond to the attribute name fields and to define one or more values for the attribute name fields. The attribute name fields and the corresponding attribute value fields may be mapped to a first set of fields in a first application and may be mapped to second set of fields in a second application and the attributes and the values populate the first set of fields and the second set of fields such that the working context is persistent across the first application and the second application, where the first application differs from the second application.

A computer-implemented method for processing spare parts purchase orders includes receiving, during a manufacturing planning phase, an estimate of the number of the spare parts that will be needed to be produced during a given period to satisfy expected purchase orders for the spare part. The method also includes receiving a user-defined configurable reasonable quantity rule to be used during processing of electronic purchase order information. The method further includes, upon receipt of an electronic purchase order, determining whether a quantity value included in the electronic purchase order is reasonable using the defined reasonable quantity check rule, and if determined unreasonable, generating an indication that the quantity value was determined to be unreasonable.
