Embodiments are directed towards managing data models using version control for resource allocation modelling. A main data model that includes change records, resource values, model objects, or the like, may be provided. Also, user workspaces associated with the main data model may be provided. The user workspaces may include a workspace data model that is based on the main data model and its change records. Model objects that may be part of the user workspace may be modified by a user where each modification made by the user may be employed to provide workspace change records. If a user finishes modifying the workspace data model, the one or more workspace change records may be used to execute the merge of the modified model objects with the main data model.

Version control for resource allocation modeling

Embodiments are directed towards employing a plurality of object relationships to dynamically generate a hierarchical structure of dependent object relationships ('HSDOR'). Each object relationship may include a plurality of information, including, but not limited to, a consumer object, a provider object, a one or more direct values, a quantity of units consumed by the consumer object, or the like. Dependencies between the plurality of object relationships may be utilized to dynamically generate an HSDOR. In some embodiments, the HSDOR may be modified by resolving detected circularity relationships within the HSDOR and/or dynamically modifying object relationship dependencies affected by a new and/or modified object relationship. In some embodiments, the HSDOR may be utilized to iteratively determine a total value of an object as a function of total loaded values of object relationships from which the object depends.
