Abstract: According to one non-limiting embodiment, an enterprise rendering platform for providing ERP functionality for a computing device having a web browser includes at least one ERP system storing enterprise data on at least one server. A rendering workbench provides a GUI-based editor in which metadata for at least one selected ERP function is presented to a view setup user, and in which a view for executing the ERP function may be created with no coding. A repository stores the view and the metadata for the view. The gateway invokes an execution engine to execute the ERP function to retrieve ERP data and renders the view to include the retrieved ERP data.

Abstract: A web page provides multiple section containers, each having independently operating close control and history, without affecting the remainder of the web page. A menu on the page may permit the creation of the containers. An optional mode may be provided in which links within containers do or do not generate new containers within the web page.

Abstract: An enterprise rendering platform for providing enterprise resource planning (“ERP”) functionality for a computing device having a web browser includes at least one ERP system storing enterprise data on at least one server. A rendering workbench providing a GUI-based editor in which metadata for at least one selected ERP function is presented to a setup user, and in which a view for executing the ERP function may be created with no coding. The view may be designed to include dynamically created charts of received ERP data. If a user's ERP request from executing the view is determined to be chargeable, a transactional billing charge may be recorded by creating a billing database record for the chargeable ERP request.

Abstract: According to one non-limiting embodiment, an enterprise rendering platform for providing ERP functionality for a computing device having a web browser includes at least one ERP system storing enterprise data on at least one server. A rendering workbench provides a GUI-based editor in which executable metadata for at least one selected ERP function is presented to a setup user, and in which a view for executing the ERP function may be created with no coding. A repository stores the view and the executable metadata for the view. The gateway invokes an execution engine to execute the ERP function to retrieve ERP data and renders the view to include the retrieved ERP data.
