SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR IDENTIFYING AND RELATING ASSET-TIED TRANSACTIONS
First Claim
1. A method for monitoring assets throughout an organization, where data relating to such assets are stored and processed in disparate asset data sources, including a primary asset data source having one or more primary asset datasets, each primary asset dataset relating to an asset and containing primary asset data elements about the asset to which they relate, and one or more secondary asset data sources, each having one or more secondary asset datasets, each secondary asset dataset relating to an asset and containing secondary asset data elements about the asset to which they relate, the method comprising:
- receiving, by an asset tracking module on a processor, the one or more primary asset datasets from a primary asset data source;
for each secondary asset data source and each secondary asset dataset therein;
obtaining, by an asset tracking module on a processor, a secondary asset dataset from the secondary asset data source;
relating, by an asset tracking module on a processor, the secondary asset dataset to one of the one or more primary asset datasets;
processing, by an asset tracking module on a processor, the one or more primary datasets and the related secondary datasets into processed asset datasets;
storing, by an asset tracking module on a processor into a database on a computer readable medium, the processed asset datasets; and
tracking, by an asset tracking module on a processor, the assets using the processed asset datasets.

Abstract
Systems and methods for tracking assets are disclosed, where such assets'"'"' data exists in disparate and independent asset data sources within and throughout an organization. Assets'"'"' data is first assembled and processed, related between asset data sources and to particular assets, and stored in a processed format that allows reporting and monitoring.

10. A system for tracking assets within an enterprise, where data relating to such assets are stored and processed in disparate asset data sources, the system comprising:
an asset tracker comprising; a processor; a fetcher configured to communicate with one or more asset data sources and to receive one or more source data elements from each of the one or more asset data sources; a database on a computer readable medium with one or more sink data elements of processed data; and one or more data filters configured to receive the one or more source data elements from the fetcher, match the source data elements from the one or more asset data sources that relate to the same asset, process the related data into processed data and insert the processed data into the database. - View Dependent Claims (11, 12)
