Abstract: A context control interface may include a context name field that is arranged and configured to identify a working context, one or more attribute name fields that are configured to identify one or more attributes that define the working context and one or more attribute value fields that are arranged and configured to correspond to the attribute name fields and to define one or more values for the attribute name fields. The attribute name fields and the corresponding attribute value fields may be mapped to a first set of fields in a first application and may be mapped to second set of fields in a second application and the attributes and the values populate the first set of fields and the second set of fields such that the working context is persistent across the first application and the second application, where the first application differs from the second application.

Abstract: A graphical user interface (GUI) includes a details area containing first detail information for a first object instance. The first object instance is part of a hierarchy that includes several object instances of more than one object. The first detail information is presented using at least one GUI component associated with the first object instance. Included in the details area is a hierarchy GUI component that presents at least a portion of the hierarchy including the first object instance, and providing for user selection of any of the several object instances in the hierarchy. The details area is updated to instead contain second detail information that is for a second object instance selected using the hierarchy GUI component and that is presented using at least one GUI component associated with the second object instance. The details area can include GUI components associated with any of the several object instances.

Abstract: Described herein is a method, providing a user of a graphical user interface (GUI) with a plurality of selectable values, suitable for an input of a text field in the GUI. Each time the user enters a character in the text field, a background search is performed and the plurality of selectable values is reduced to the matching values only. In case the selectable values consist of multiple words, the background search matches the input to each of the consisting words. If the user does not enter a character in the text field, the method displays a plurality of selectable values when the user performs a double-click over the text field or uses backspace key while the text field is selected. If there is no user context defined, the displayed plurality of selectable values consists of a predefined number of last recently used values in the text field. If the user is working in a context, the displayed plurality of selectable values consists of a predefined number of previously entered context specific values.

Abstract: A method and a system for a mobile data upload to an enterprise computer system are described. The data is received at a mobile device. The mobile device operates in a particular context. A reference to an application object of the enterprise computer system is specified based on the context. The data is sent directly from the mobile device to the application object using the specified reference. The context of the mobile device could include the location of the mobile device, the performed task, the user habits, and other elements that are analyzed either by the mobile device or by the enterprise system.

Abstract: A computer-implemented method for facilitating a unified search comprising: providing a first user interface element with which a user can select a search type from a plurality of search types, wherein the search types comprise searches saved by a user and a plurality of standard searches; providing a second user interface element with which a user can select a refined search criteria that refines the selected search type; searching of customer relationship management data based upon the selected search type and the refined search criteria; and providing the results of the search in a single display frame.

Abstract: A context control interface may include a context name field that is arranged and configured to identify a working context, one or more attribute name fields that are configured to identify one or more attributes that define the working context and one or more attribute value fields that are arranged and configured to correspond to the attribute name fields and to define one or more values for the attribute name fields. The attribute name fields and the corresponding attribute value fields may be mapped to a first set of fields in a first application and may be mapped to second set of fields in a second application and the attributes and the values populate the first set of fields and the second set of fields such that the working context is persistent across the first application and the second application, where the first application differs from the second application.
