Method and system for managing enterprise content
First Claim
1. An application development framework, comprising:
- a microprocessor;
a process flow manager;
an interface component configured to receive an abstract definition of interfaces to enable access to content within the process flow manager, the content comprised of different types of information;
a model metadata component configured to receive a model metadata associated with the content, the model metadata associated with the different types of content information; and
a generator component executing on the microprocessor, coupled to the interface component and the model metadata component, and configured to generate a productivity component based on the abstract definition of interfaces and the model metadata, wherein the productivity component communicates with the process flow manager to provision within the productivity component at least one of a user interface object property associated with the content, an action object property associated with the content, or an event object property associated with the content,wherein the process flow manager configured to provide a user interface component to visualize at least portion of the content within the productivity component based on a content mapping and ordered by a plurality of mappings of content metadata key fields to model metadata key fields.

Abstract
A method and system for providing a consistent flow documents and data content across different organizational units of a company or agency where the documents and data come from different enterprise systems and data stores but are related to linked processes that share models for organizing the content in the business context and in a format that enables a user to relate the content to the process step or steps they are performing. The system includes a network service that enables a configuration utility to automatically discover the objects and metadata and provides for a mapping of selected fields of the metadata to regions displayed in the user interface view with provision for filtering the data by mapping selected fields to a user input form. Thereby, a business analyst can create solutions without writing and maintaining complex program logic for each combination of presentation environment, enterprise system and data store.
