Abstract: An order workflow system integrated with a fabrication/distribution system for managing workflow order. The system can receive a selection of a job number and a work order number and generate selectable line items based on the work order number. Selected line items associated with the work order type can be processed and an order workflow can be generated at an order queue process. The selected line items can be interfaced with a BIM database to identify the selected line items, at a spooling sub-queue process, and generate a control number for each line item. The line items can then be interfaced with an ERP module. Inventory data items can be generated from the selected line items and the inventory data items interfaced with an inventory API of the ERP module. The order workflow can be further processed in a similar queued and integrated manner with a fabrication/distribution system.

Abstract: A manufacturing system provides for building staircase assemblies of different design criteria and different building codes. The assemblies are manufactured in an assembly-line manner from one or more centralized manufacturing facilities. Individual projects are shipped to different job sites. The assembly is formed in an off-site, manufacturing facility. The completed assembly obtains a certification to indicate successful building code compliance for the final jurisdiction. The completed stair assembly is disassembled, packaged and shipped to the final building construction site where the assembly can be reassembled and installed. Final installation adjustments, as needed, can accommodate height, width or length adjustments needed to overcome manufacturing tolerances between the assembly and its stairwell. The instant abstract is neither intended to define the invention disclosed in this specification nor intended to limit the scope of the invention in any way.

Abstract: Session persistence storage schemes are provided. These schemes may include identifying a change in a session attribute for an application client session, querying a session persistence table associated with the application running in the application-server environment, and updating an attribute in the record identified by the query of the session persistence table, where the query is made to a session persistence table with session attributes grouped by common traits.

Abstract: A golf push cart rangefinder stabilizing unit allowing the anchoring, steadying, and adjusting of the position of the rangefinder using a position locking knob and position locking washer on one side of a telescoping tubing base. On the other side of the telescoping tubing base is an anchor positioning gear lock sliding over a center pivot alignment shaft next to an adjustable positioning gear lock. There is a center pivot alignment shaft frame clamp on one end of the center pivot alignment shaft, comprised of a hemispherical torus connected to a free frame clamp also in a hemispherical torus shape.
