  • Publication number: 20220366371
    Abstract: A method, apparatus, system, and computer program code for performing a human resource operation using a context-independent conversational flow. The computer system receives an intended human resource operation from an application executing on a user device, identifies the context-independent conversational flow for performing an intended human resource operation, and calls a structured data object according to the context-independent conversational flow. The computer system interprets the structured data object to produce a business rule output, and generates a context-independent response from the business rule output. The computer system transforms the context-independent response according to a user context to produce a context-specific response, and forwards the context-specific response to a user device for display within a conversational user interface of an application.

  • Patent number: 11188309
    Abstract: A method, computer system, and computer program product display a set of tiles within a first area of a graphical user interface. Each tile corresponds to a set of data nodes that are composable structured data objects according to a domain-specific language. A structured data object is composed from selected tiles and is displayed within a second area of the graphical user interface. Displaying the structured data object includes displaying a first tile and a second tile within a context of the structured data object. A value override is displayed at the first tile when a first value of the first set of data nodes is overridden by a second value of the second set of data nodes.

  • Patent number: 10970050
    Abstract: A method, computer system, and computer program product compose a business rule. A computer system displays a set of tiles within a first area of a graphical user interface, each tile corresponding to a set of data nodes that are composable into structured data objects according to a domain-specific language. Dragging a selected tile from the first area to a drop zone within a second area of the graphical user interface appends the corresponding set of data nodes into a structured data object. Receiving a user input that sets focus on the drop zone displays a text field that replaces the drop zone w. A drop-down list is associated with the text field. The drop-down list consists of a set of permissible tiles for data nodes that can be appended to the structured data object according to a context of the structured data object.

  • Patent number: 10936998
    Abstract: A method, computer system, and computer program product digitally manipulate a human resources workflow on a mobile device. A selection of a human resources operation is received from a mobile application executing on the mobile device; a business rule corresponding to the human resources operation is identified. The business rule comprises a plurality of linked metadata objects forming a syntax tree. The plurality of linked metadata objects is interpreted to implement the business rule, Interpreting comprises sending a first set of chat messages that request input for the plurality of linked metadata objects, and receiving a second set of chat messages that provide the requested input. The human resources operation is performed according to the business rule, generating a workflow stage notification, and publishing the workflow stage notification to a set of mobile devices for display on a timeline of the mobile application.

  • Patent number: 10572136
    Abstract: In one example, a user interface is provided for interactively displaying data. The interactive user interface includes: an interactive display window that displays data according to a tabular format including one or more rows and one or more columns, and wherein the displayed data is dynamically displayed within the interactive display window based on a drag and drop user action performed within the display window; and a frame that surrounds the display window and that dynamically displays a first range of first axis data corresponding to the one or more rows and a second range of second axis data corresponding to the one or more columns.

  • Publication number: 20050021480
    Abstract: A method and apparatus provide digital receipts for third-party electronic commerce transactions, using a Web Receipt Service. The digital receipts can be used to validate the details of electronic transactions carried out over public networks such as the Internet. A Web service provides a digital receipt comprising a transaction record identifying transaction details. The transaction record is sent to the Web Receipt Service, where a computer controlled by the Web Receipt Service digitally signs and encrypts the record. The transaction record is encrypted such that it may be later decrypted only by the Web Receipt Service and cannot be altered by others. A digital receipt is formed comprising the encrypted transaction record, which may be embedded in a graphic using steganography to enable display in a Web page. The digital receipt containing the encrypted transaction record is returned electronically to each of the parties to the transaction.
