Abstract: In response to a request received from a client device to view an item, a program determines a category associated with the item and a location associated with a user of the client device. The program also identifies a form based on the category and the location. The form comprises a set of fields. The program then provides a graphical user interface (GUI) that includes the form to the client device. The program also receives, through the GUI, data values for the set of fields from the client device and a request to add the item to a collection of items. The program then identifies a policy based on the category and the location. The program also applies the policy to the data values for the set of fields. The program then sends a notification to the client device indicating a result of the application of the policy.

Abstract: Some embodiments provide a non-transitory machine-readable medium that stores a program. The program receives a request for suppliers associated with a location and a category. The program also identifies a matrix, a hierarchy of locations associated with the matrix, and a hierarchy of categories associated with the matrix. The program further determines a set of suppliers by based on the location, the category, the matrix, the hierarchy of locations, and the hierarchy of categories.

Abstract: Some embodiments provide a program that receives, from a first system, a copy of master data. The program also receives a master data modification rule. The program further receives, from a second system, a first request to modify a value of a second field of data in the second system with a new value. In response to the first request, the program also identifies the master data modification rule. The program further performs a set of validation operations specified in the master data modification rule. Based on the performance of the set of validation operation, the program also modifies the first field in the copy of the master data with the new value based on the supplier identifier and sends a second request to the first system to modify the first field in the master data managed by the first system.

Abstract: Some embodiments provide a non-transitory machine-readable medium that stores a program. The program receives a request for questions associated with a location and a category. The program also identifies a matrix, a hierarchy of locations associated with the matrix, and a hierarchy of categories associated with the matrix. The program further determines an aggregate collection of questions from a plurality of sets of questions based on the matrix, the hierarchy of locations, and the hierarchy of categories. The program also generates the aggregate collection of questions.

Abstract: Some embodiments provide a non-transitory machine-readable medium that stores a program. The program determines a first identifier encoding for a location associated with a user requesting procurement of the item based on a hierarchy of locations. The program further determines a second identifier for a category associated with the item based on a hierarchy of categories. The program also determines a first set of search identifiers based on the first identifier encoding for the location. The program further determines a second set of search identifiers based on the second identifier encoding for the category. The program also determines a set of combinations of search identifiers based on the first and second sets of search identifiers. The program further identifies a set of policies from a plurality of policies based on the set of combinations of search identifiers.
