Abstract: The disclosed embodiments provide a system that facilitates use of an application. During operation, the system obtains a business-logic stack that includes one or more sets of business rules corresponding to one or more tax codes associated with a specified globalization setting for the application. For each user-interface component from a set of user-interface components in the application, the system: dynamically obtains content for the user-interface component from a content-repository based on an order of the one or more sets of business rules in the business-logic stack, wherein the content-repository is a store of tax-code-specific content for the user-interface components associated with the application; and includes, via the localization mechanism associated with the platform of the electronic device, the content in the user-interface component during use of the application on the electronic device by the user.

Abstract: The disclosed embodiments provide a system that facilitates use of an application. During operation, the system obtains a language stack containing an ordered set of preferred languages for a user of the application. Next, for each user-interface component from a set of user-interface components in the application, the system obtains content for the user-interface component based on an order of languages in the language stack. The system then includes the content in the user-interface component during use of the application on an electronic device by the user.

Abstract: An alert system is provided. The alert system includes a processor and a memory coupled to the processor. The memory is computer-readable storage media configured to store instructions that are operable to be executed by the processor. The memory stores instructions that may be executed to determine a physical location of a contact in a contact list or a user managing the contact list; determine a physical location associated with a task in a task list; compare the physical location of the contact with the physical location associated with the task; determine when the physical location of the contact matches the physical location associated with the task; and transmit an alert message indicating the contact and the task.
