HIERARCHY DISPLAY
First Claim
Patent Images
1. A computer readable media having instructions stored thereon that, when executed by a processor, causes the processor to:
- identify a basis for a hierarchy;
determine a root of a data set using the basis;
configure the hierarchy beginning at the root;
populate the hierarchy with selected values from the data set;
generate supplemental data based on the selected values;
embed the supplemental data within the populated hierarchy; and
display the hierarchy.

Abstract
A method for establishing a hierarchy display includes identifying a basis for a hierarchy. A root of a data set is determined using the basis. A hierarchy is configured beginning at the root. The hierarchy is populated with selected values from the data set. Supplemental data is generated based on the selected values. The hierarchy is embedded with the supplemental data. The resulting hierarchy is displayed.

1. A computer readable media having instructions stored thereon that, when executed by a processor, causes the processor to:
-
identify a basis for a hierarchy; determine a root of a data set using the basis; configure the hierarchy beginning at the root; populate the hierarchy with selected values from the data set; generate supplemental data based on the selected values; embed the supplemental data within the populated hierarchy; and display the hierarchy. - View Dependent Claims (2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8)

9. A hierarchy display system comprising:
-
a search tool to receive a hierarchy basis; a data set that includes members of a hierarchy; a processor enabled to establish a hierarchy display based in part on the hierarchy basis and the data set, the hierarchy display comprising; a set of members, each member including an identifier to identify the member and corresponding financial data of the member; and a node for each member of a hierarchy that is considered a parent, each node includes a node identifier to identify a node and a node summary to summarize the corresponding financial data of the node. - View Dependent Claims (10, 11, 12, 13)

14. A computer implemented method for establishing a hierarchy display, the method comprising:
-
identifying a root key within a data set; setting the root key to be the active key; populating a hierarchy with an identifier and financial data of the root key; identifying all data records in the data set that has the active key as a parent key; populating the hierarchy with an identifier and financial data for each identified data record; setting the active key to be one of the keys of the identified data records; recursively iterating through the steps of identifying all data records, populating the hierarchy, and setting the active key until all hierarchy members from the data set populate the hierarchy; creating a node for each member of a hierarchy that is considered a parent, each node includes a node identifier to identify a node and a node summary to summarize the corresponding financial data of the node; and displaying the populated hierarchy on a single display screen. - View Dependent Claims (15, 16)

17. A system for establishing a hierarchy display, the system comprising:
-
means for identifying a basis for a hierarchy; means for determining a root of a data set using the basis; means for configuring the hierarchy beginning at the root; means for populating the hierarchy with selected values from the data set, the selected values include an identifier to identify a member of the hierarchy and corresponding financial data; means for generating supplemental data based on the corresponding financial data; means for embedding the supplemental data within the populated hierarchy; and means for displaying the hierarchy. - View Dependent Claims (18)
