A method may include maintaining first data structure with records organized in a first hierarchy, and maintaining a second data structure with records organized in a second hierarchy. The method may additionally include receiving a change request for the value stored in the first record. The change request may be received from a parent in the second data structure of the first record. The method may further include sending a notification to the parent in the first data structure that the parent in the second data structure is attempting to change the first record.

Concurrent multiple hierarchical data structures with consistent data

A method may include maintaining first data structure with records organized in a first hierarchy, and maintaining a second data structure with records organized in a second hierarchy. The method may also include receiving a first change request for a value stored in a first record. The first change request may be received from a parent in the first data structure of the first record. The method may additionally include changing the first value according to the first change request, and receiving a second change request for the value stored in the first record. The second change request may be received from a parent in the second data structure of the first record. The method may further include sending a notification to the parent in the first data structure that the parent in the second data structure is attempting to change the first record.

An enterprise compensation application enables different users to create corresponding sets of custom filters of interest, and then stores in a non-volatile storage, data indicating the corresponding custom filters created by each user. In response to receiving a request from a user for information related to a set of employees, the application identifies the set of custom filter created by the user (by examining the stored data), presents information related to the requested set of employees and also makes available the identified set of custom filters. On receiving an input indicating that the user has selected a custom filter from the set, the application determines a subset of employee as limited by the selected custom filter and then presents the information related to the subset to the user. Thus, the enterprise compensation application simplifies/supports compensation management for a large number of employees.

Hierarchical data can be consistently presented in multiple different views. One method involves extracting object information describing at least one object from a database. The object information includes hierarchical information indicating a position of the object within a hierarchy of objects and list information usable to sort of list of objects that includes the object. The method also generates a tree view and a list view for display within a hierarchical data presentation window. The tree view identifies the object, and generation of the tree view is based upon the hierarchical information. The list view identifies the at least one object, and generation of the list view is based upon the list information. The method provides the tree and list views to a display device for display within the hierarchical data presentation window.

Described is an improved method, system, and computer program product for implementing an improved method and system for generating performance scores for employees. Also disclosed is an approach for ranking employees which avoids the complexity and excessive resources often needed to implement employee rankings.

Method and system for implementing a scoring mechanism

Described is an improved method, system, and computer program product for implementing an improved approach for a compensation system and related interfaces that avoids the problems of the prior approaches. According to some approaches, interfaces are provided that comprises multiple modes of compensation entry, in which data elements within the multiple modes are linked together in a coordinated way.

A method of providing an administrator with a managerial view of personnel data may include receiving a login that includes administrator credentials from a personnel administrator and receiving a command associated with the administrator credentials to view personnel data in a personnel database. The personnel data may be associated with a group of employees under a manager in a managerial hierarchy. The method may also include selecting between a manager view of the personnel data and an administrator view of the personnel data. The manager view may include a first subset of the personnel data, the administrator view may include a second subset of the personnel data, and/or the first subset may be smaller than the second subset. The method may additionally include causing the first subset of personnel data to be displayed on a display device according to the manager view.

A system for monitoring a flow of related tasks by supervisors of an organization stores information that defines a hierarchy within an enterprise, the hierarchy including a tree structure where each of a plurality of supervisors is placed in a supervisory position over one or more subordinates and each supervisor is sub ordinate to at most one other supervisor. The system also assigns a task for each of the plurality of supervisors to perform, wherein performing the task by a first supervisor depends in part on completion of the task by each of the one or more respective subordinates. The system also determines if one or more subordinates are causing a delay in the progress towards completion of the task within the hierarchy. The system further generates a report identifying the subordinates, if any, who are causing a delay in the task completion progress.

Systems and methods for setting up dynamic calculations within compensation software are described in the present disclosure. According to one embodiment among many, a compensation module for managing compensation for a number of employees includes a dynamic calculation set-up module allowing a user to set up a dynamic calculation. The dynamic calculation includes a calculation for one column of a worksheet based in part on a value in another column. The compensation module also includes a condition builder allowing a user to enter a condition and a result as part of a dynamic calculation. In particular, a column associated with the result receives a calculated value when the condition is met.
