Methods and systems for providing a discussion thread to key performance indicator information
First Claim
1. A system for providing a discussion thread to key performance indicator information visualized in a dashboard displayed on a remote computing device, the dashboard comprising a discussion thread window, the system comprising:
- a processor;
a business database storing a plurality of business values;
an intermediate table database storing one or more intermediate tables, wherein the one or more intermediate tables comprise;
a plurality of intermediate values comprising a subset of the plurality of business values,a plurality of date dimension categories, anda plurality of dimension categories, each dimension category corresponding to a unique group of at least one of the plurality of intermediate values; and
a dashboard generator configured to;
derive one or more key performance indicator values from the plurality of intermediate values using at least one of the plurality of date dimension categories and at least one of the plurality of dimension categories,transmit the derived one or more key performance indicator values to the remote computing device for visualization in the dashboard,receive a comment from the remote computing device via the discussion thread window displayed on the remote computing device, the discussion thread window comprising a dimension category selector for receiving a selection of at least one of the plurality of dimension categories and a date dimension category selector for receiving a selection of at least one of the plurality of date dimension categories,store the comment in association with;
a selected at least one of the plurality of dimension categories,a date range comprising a selected at least one of the plurality of date dimension categories, andan authentication level; and
transmit at least one additional comment to the remote computing device for display in the discussion thread window, the at least one additional comment having a stored association with the selected at least one of the plurality of dimension categories and the selected date range.

Abstract
Systems and methods for providing a discussion thread to key performance indicator information displayed on a dashboard are disclosed. The system may include a renderer for rendering a dashboard displaying a key performance indicator value corresponding to at least one business value. The system may also include a comment module that is configured to: receive a comment corresponding to the displayed key performance indicator value, and generate a discussion thread including the received comment. The generated dashboard can then be rendered by the renderer in association with the displayed key performance indicator value. In some cases, the discussion thread can include a plurality of related comments.

6. A method for providing a discussion thread to key performance indicator information visualized in a dashboard displayed on a computing device, the method comprising:
-
retrieving a plurality of business values from one or more business databases; deriving a plurality of intermediate values comprising a subset of the plurality of business values; deriving one or more key performance indicator values from the plurality of intermediate values using at least one date dimension category and at least two dimension categories stored as a parent-child hierarchical relationship, each of the at least two dimension categories corresponding to a unique group of at least one of the plurality of intermediate values; rendering a dashboard on a display of the computing device, the dashboard comprising a display of at least one of the one or more key performance indicator values; rendering a discussion thread window on the display of the computing device, the discussion thread window comprising; a dimension category selector for receiving a selection of at least one dimension category, a date dimension category selector for receiving a selection of at least one date dimension category, and a discussion thread comprising at least one comment stored in association with; a date dimension category that falls within a date range of the at least one of the one or more key performance indicator values displayed on the rendered dashboard, and a dimension category that corresponds to a dimension category or a parent dimension category of the at least one of the one or more key performance indicator values displayed on the rendered dashboard, receiving and storing an additional comment in association with; a date range comprising a selected at least one of the plurality of date dimension categories; and a selected at least one dimension category. - View Dependent Claims (7, 8, 9)

10. A method for providing a discussion thread to key performance indicator information visualized in a dashboard displayed on a computing device, the method comprising:
-
rendering a dashboard on a display of the computing device, the dashboard comprising a visualization of at least one key performance indicator value rendering a discussion thread window on the display of the computing device, the discussion thread window comprising; a dimension category selector for receiving a selection of at least one dimension category, a date dimension category selector for receiving a selection of at least one date dimension category, and a discussion thread comprising at least one comment stored in association with; a date dimension category that falls within a date range of the visualized at least one key performance indicator value, and a dimension category that corresponds to a dimension category associated with the visualized at least one key performance indicator value or to a dimension category stored as a parent in a parent-child hierarchical relationship with a dimension category associated with the visualized at least one key performance indicator value, receiving an additional comment in association with; a date range comprising a selected at least one of the plurality of date dimension categories; and a selected at least one dimension category; and updating the rendered discussion thread window to display the additional comment. - View Dependent Claims (11, 12, 13)
