Allocation within a database environment is performed by processing a sequence of steps, each of which is described by an allocation processing block. The allocation processing block receives three inputs (input tables or input view) and computes a result. Related apparatus, systems, techniques and articles are also described.

A reallocation processing block including a computing system including one or more data processors receives a base table, a reference table, and at least one assignment path table. Subsequently, rules from the at least one assignment path table are applied to the base table and the reference table by reallocating values between at least two existing data objects. A results table is generated with the reallocated values in the at least two existing data objects. A reallocated value is compared with a threshold value to determine the need for an iteration. At least one of the activities described is implemented using at least one data processor. Related apparatus, systems, techniques and articles are also described.
