A first user interaction is detected indicating a user selection of a document. Relationship information on the document is accessed to identify related documents. Relationship information is accessed on the related documents to identify other related documents. This continues until all related documents are identified. The documents are displayed, on a single user interface display, in a aggregate view and each document is represented by a document display pane that shows summary information from the document.

Cross-system data aggregation

An entity hub display includes a plurality of different sections, each section including a plurality of different components. The sections each correspond to a different aspect of data that makes up an entity. Each component is a user interface display element that is related to data within the corresponding section. The individual components can be selected and placed on the entity hub display based on a user's role and activities or tasks performed by a user in that role.

Displaying different views of an entity

A workspace display includes a plurality of different groups, each group including a plurality of different components. Each group corresponds to a task, set of tasks or topic of information related to a user's role. The particular components included in each group are user interface display elements that are each related to an item of content within the corresponding group. The workspace display has filter mechanisms that are actuated to filter the content displayed in the components on the workspace display.

Filtering content on a role tailored workspace

An adaptable user interface is formed based on a role assumed by a user and the identification of tasks in a process that need to be performed. For each role assumed by the user, a set of tasks assigned to the role is identified. Each task is evaluated to determine if it is an active task that needs to be performed in one or more processes. For each active task, an element is added to the user interface.

Adaptable user interface for business software

A user interface is provided enabling users to build and modify account structures with various account-dimension combinations and rules for those combinations. The user interface provides context for the account structure and controls for creation and modification of the account configurations.
