Abstract

The present invention provides for a server computer, a data processing system and an access control system. Data related to items that are supposed to be in the possession of an employee is retrieved from distributed data sources. A web page is generated using these data values for the employee'"'"'s information and review. These data values can be stored on a chip card that is used for access control and/or control of the circulation of items within the premises of a company.

Claims

1. A computer system for generating user-specific web pages for a plurality of users, the computer system comprising:

a storage device that stores a set of instructions; and

at least one processor that is configured, by execution of the set of instructions, to perform the following operations;

receive a user identifier from a client computer;

determine a supervisory role associated with the user identifier;

retrieve, from the storage device, supervisor-specific data including;

at least one supervised user associated with the supervisory role,

at least one item in possession of the supervised user, and

respective costs of each of the at least one item in possession of the supervised user; and

generate a supervisory role web page including;

a first table listing at least one supervised user associated with the supervisory role; and

for a selected supervised user, a second table listing the at least one item in possession supervised user, a description of the at least one item, and a location of the at least one item.

2. The computer system of claim 1, wherein the supervisor-specific data includes a remaining lifetime of the at least one item, and the second table lists the remaining lifetime of the at least one item.

3. A computer-implemented method for generating user-specific web pages for a plurality of users, the method comprising:

receiving a user identifier from a client computer;

determining a supervisory role associated with the user identifier;

retrieving, by at least one processor, supervisor-specific data reflecting;

at least one supervised user associated with the supervisory role,

at least one item in possession of the supervised user, and

respective costs of each of the at least one item in possession of the supervised user; and

generating, by the at least one processor, a supervisory role web page including;

a first table listing at least one supervised user associated with the supervisory role; and

for a selected supervised user, a second table listing the at least one item in possession of the supervised user, a description of the at least one item, and a location of the at least one item.

4. The method of claim 3, wherein the supervisor-specific data includes a remaining lifetime of the at least one item, and the second table lists the remaining lifetime of the at least one item.

5. A computer program product comprising a non-transitory computer-readable storage medium, the non-transitory computer-readable storage medium storing a set of instructions, that when executed by a processor, cause the processor to:

receive a user identifier from a client computer;

determine a supervisory role associated with the user identifier;

retrieve supervisor-specific data reflecting;

at least one supervised user associated with the supervisory role,

at least one item in possession of the supervised user, and

respective costs of each of the at least one item in possession of the supervised user; and

generate a supervisory role web page including;

a first table listing one supervised user associated with the supervisory role; and

for a selected supervised user, a second table listing the at least one item in possession of the supervised user, a description of the at least one item, and a location of the at least one item.

6. The computer program product of claim 5, wherein the supervisor-specific data includes a remaining lifetime of the at least one item, and the second table lists the remaining lifetime of the at least one item.
