Abstract
A method and system for obtaining past information in a generic manner. For a certain time point, obtaining a copy of the process object, including its structure and data from recorded changes. When setting up the process object, an action rule is associated with the process object to automate that any change in the data content and/or structure is recorded with an associated time of the change. In response to a request for past information, steps are taken to acquire past data, acquire past change data, and create a temporary object to simulate the object that would have existed at the specific time requested.
