Embodiments of the invention provide a mechanism for a multi-tenant platform operator (or a developer or publisher of an application or an extension to an existing platform application) to control the access and functionality available within the application or extension on an account specific basis, based on the subscription license terms applicable to each account/customer. Embodiments of the invention enable a more practical and efficient management of access controls and functionality for a relatively large customer base, where certain accounts, customers, or users may be entitled to a different or at least partially different set of rights and functionality.

Systems and methods to identify to iteratively accomplish a complex task by mapping the complex task into a series of smaller tasks and then to reduce the task by executing one or more of the smaller tasks. Such a system ensures that a user does not have to be familiar with the operational environment of the platform (governance rules, architecture, and the like) when scripting tasks. Instead, the user can concentrate on the logic or purpose of the task, and various embodiments of the system will 'intelligently' process/execute the task in the most efficient way, without violating the governance constraints imposed on users or accounts as part of the multi-tenant environment. Among other benefits, this approach permits users to more efficiently describe desired tasks and hence to more effectively utilize the platform.

A multiple currency rate consolidator addresses the needs of multi-national companies that do business in different currencies and tax localities. A consolidated view of financial data may be provided in real time. The multiple currency rate consolidator allows each subsidiary within a subsidiary hierarchy to enter and manage transactional data as well as budget/forecast data in a corresponding localized functional currency. The multiple currency rate consolidator allows different consolidation levels to view localized, consolidated values of subsidiary transactions. The multiple currency rate consolidator also accommodates statutory, ad hoc and management reporting consolidation using different subsidiary configurations for the same time periods, as well as the versioning of the subsidiary hierarchy to accommodate structural changes across different time periods.
