AI Technical Summary

Benefits of technology

The patent text describes a way to create complex business solutions by using rule-based systems to customize existing master copies of resources. This approach helps to reduce the amount of testing, documentation, and training required for individual customers. Additionally, using a master copy that has been fully tested and documented helps to save time and money compared to creating a new resource from smaller building blocks.

Problems solved by technology

Traditional tools and methods cannot support very complex business solutions in the low-code, high-configuration category.

Embodiment Construction

[0046]Before turning to the figures, which illustrate the exemplary embodiments in detail, it should be understood that the disclosure is not limited to the details or methodology set forth in the description or illustrated in the figures. It should also be understood that the terminology is for the purpose of description only and should not be regarded as limiting.

[0047]Resource Generation / Management Tool

[0048]Rule-based systems and methods for customizing a complex business solution comprise the use of a master-copy of all-encompassing resources that make up the business solution. The master copy can be fully documented and fully tested. In some embodiments, such a master copy may be very large and may provide a complex solution since it needs to cover many industries, planning systems and all configuration options.

[0049]Rule-based systems and methods for customizing complex business solutions further comprise: creation of a set of rules that: i) capture dependencies between confi...

Abstract

Rule-based systems and methods for customizing complex business solutions in a low-risk, inexpensive manner. In some embodiments, a baseline all-encompassing master copy of a resource is created. It is then simplified using a rule-based system that generates a final solution based on declarative rules that express a customer's requirements. The master copy can be fully documented and fully tested, thus greatly reducing the scope of testing, documentation, and training that is required for individual customers.

Description

CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS[0001]The present application claims the benefit of U.S. patent application Ser. No. 63 / 121,368, filed Dec. 4, 2020, and is expressly incorporated by reference in its entirety herein.BACKGROUND[0002]Business solutions that target multiple industries and planning systems are extremely difficult and expensive to create, customize, and maintain. A common practice is to create a set of building blocks and assemble them to create a solution customized for a given customer. However, this process is largely manual. The building blocks typically cover a fraction of the required functionality, thereby leaving many functionality gaps, and require significant integration effort to complete the solution. As an example, when assembling worksheets together, expressions are often edited, or complex rules are often modified. These types of customization activities have to be performed manually and they constitute a large percentage of solution development cost...
