Digital processing systems and methods for graphical interface for aggregating and dissociating data from multiple tables in collaborative work systems

Abstract

Systems, methods, and computer-readable media for graphically aggregating data from a plurality of distinct tables, and enabling dissociation of underlying aggregated data from the associated distinct tables are disclosed. The systems and methods may involve maintaining the plurality of distinct tables, wherein each distinct table contains a plurality of items, with each item being made up of a plurality of cells categorized by category indicators, and wherein the plurality of distinct tables contain a common category indicator; generating a graphical representation of a plurality of variables within the plurality of cells associated with the common category indicator, the graphical representation including a plurality of sub-portions, each sub-portion representing a differing variable of the common category indicator; receiving a selection of a sub-portion of the graphical representation; performing a look-up across the plurality of distinct tables for a specific variable associated with the received selection.
