Patent Images
1. A method to be executed at least in part in a computing device for providing an account configuration user interface in a financial system, the method comprising:
- receiving a user request for editing an account structure;
enabling the user to edit the account structure in a graphical user interface by presenting accounts and dimension combinations associated with the accounts in a tree structure through a display device;
validating user edited accounts and dimension combinations against predefined account rules;
notifying the user about validation results; and
enabling the user to activate the account structure such that it is available for use by other users of the financial system.

17. A computer-readable storage medium having instructions stored thereon for providing an account configuration user interface in a financial system, the instructions comprising:
-
displaying the account configuration user interface presenting accounts and dimension combinations associated with the accounts in a tree structure and matrix combination format in response to receiving a user request for editing an account structure; enabling the user to edit the account structure through graphical and textual controls presented through the account configuration user interface, wherein textual and graphical schemes are employed to present elements of the account structure in a visually coherent manner; displaying additional information associated with edited account structure elements; validating user edited accounts and dimension combinations against predefined account rules based on one of;
a user request and an automatic validation rule;notifying the user about validation results; and enabling the user to activate the account structure such that it is available for use by other users of the financial system. - View Dependent Claims (18, 19, 20)
