Method and system for managing data in a workflow process
First Claim
1. A method for managing data comprising:
- identifying for a first user at least one record of a plurality of records;
generating a user interface which displays a data field associated with the at least one record in a grid format;
receiving from a second user, subsequent to generating the user interface, a first desired modification of the data field;
receiving from the first user a second desired modification of the data field;
triggering a conflict resolution process, wherein the conflict resolution process comprises choosing a chosen modification from the first desired modification and the second desired modification; and
saving the chosen modification in the data field.

Abstract
In general, in one aspect the invention relates to a method and system for managing data. The method and system involves identifying for a first user at least one record of a plurality of records, generating a user interface which displays a data field associated with the at least one record in a grid format, receiving from a second user, subsequent to generating the first user interface, a first desired modification of the data field, receiving from the first user a second desired modification of the data field, triggering a conflict resolution process, wherein the conflict resolution process involves choosing a chosen modification from the first desired modification and the second desired modification, and saving the chosen modification in the data field.

11. A workflow process system comprising:
-
a graphical user interface configured to display a data field associated with at least one record in a grid format, wherein the at least one record is identified for a first user from a plurality of records;
a processor configured to execute instructions to;
receive from a second user, subsequent to display of the data field, a first desired modification of the data field, receive from the first user a second desired modification of the data field, and trigger a conflict resolution process, wherein the conflict resolution process comprises choosing a chosen modification from the first desired modification and the second desired modification; and
a storage device configured to store the chosen modification in the data field. - View Dependent Claims (12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20)
