Example embodiments for evaluating programmable conditions applicable to an operation are described. In an example embodiment, a request to evaluate one or more programmable conditions applicable to an operation is received. The request includes data associated with the operation. One or more objects representing the one or more programmable conditions are retrieved from a database. The one or more objects include executable code for determining compliance of the operation with the one or more programmable conditions. At least a portion of the executable code is executed based on the data associated with the operation. An output of the executable code is returned to a computing system issuing the request. The output includes an indication as to whether the operation complies with the one or more programmable conditions.

Evaluation of programmable conditions applicable to an operation

In response to a request received from a client device to view an item, a program determines a category associated with the item and a location associated with a user of the client device. The program also identifies a form based on the category and the location. The form comprises a set of fields. The program then provides a graphical user interface (GUI) that includes the form to the client device. The program also receives, through the GUI, data values for the set of fields from the client device and a request to add the item to a collection of items. The program then identifies a policy based on the category and the location. The program also applies the policy to the data values for the set of fields. The program then sends a notification to the client device indicating a result of the application of the policy.

Framework for classifying forms and processing form data

In an example embodiment, definition information is received that includes a definition for each of one or more programmable conditions applicable to an operation. The definition information is translated into one or more objects representing the one or more programmable conditions. The objects include executable code for determining compliance of the operation with the programmable conditions. For each object, a lookup key is generated for the object based on the definition information. A database is checked to determine whether a prior version of the object is stored in the database using the generated lookup key. If stored in the database, the prior version of the object in the database is updated using the object. Otherwise, the object is stored in the database using the generated lookup key.

Definition of programmable conditions applicable to an operation

Some embodiments provide a non-transitory machine-readable medium that stores a program. The program determines a first identifier encoding for a location associated with a user requesting procurement of the item based on a hierarchy of locations. The program further determines a second identifier for a category associated with the item based on a hierarchy of categories. The program also determines a first set of search identifiers based on the first identifier encoding for the location. The program further determines a second set of search identifiers based on the second identifier encoding for the category. The program also determines a set of combinations of search identifiers based on the first and second sets of search identifiers. The program further identifies a set of policies from a plurality of policies based on the set of combinations of search identifiers.
