  • Publication number: 20100107049
    Abstract: Illustrative embodiments provide a computer implemented method for dynamic generation of data entry metadata. The computer implemented method monitors a form for an event of interest associated with a segment of the form and identifies the event of interest to create an identified event and an active segment. The computer implemented method further triggers a defined computes for the identified event to create generated data entry metadata, updating a metadata data structure with the generated data entry metadata to create updated data entry metadata, and determines whether an update is complete for the active segment. Responsive to a determination that the update is complete, generate a summary of the updated data entry metadata. The summary may be presented to a user.
