Techniques are presented for process tracking and monitoring. A tracking service monitors a good or service through a processing plan and takes selective measurements. A dashboard service presents the processing plan, locations for the good or service, and other metadata. The dashboard service also identifies cause and effect relationships derived from the metadata. A case management tool permits exceptions to the processing to be handled in a user-defined manner.

Techniques are presented for tracking status within object chains. Global objects are associated with unique identifiers and each dependent local object created within the context of a particular global object receives that particular global object's identifier. A unique counter value is maintained for each status type of each global object. The local object facilitates communicating changes in its status using the received global identifier, and the counter values are updated accordingly for the affected global object.

Techniques are presented for generic data extraction. Metadata defines a data extraction element with reference to an identifier, a data source, and one or more rules. The metadata may be processed to populate the data extraction element when a reference is made within a data template to the identifier. The identifier may be used to import data to a template or to export data to a different template or service.
