Abstract

A system and method in a network computer environment for loading data into a database using a browser are provided. One or more raw informational items are obtained from a data source. The raw informational items are temporarily stored and parsed. Informational items are written into a production data store which is accessible to end users of a network. The information in the production data store subsequently is validated against the raw informational items for accuracy and completeness.

Claims

1. One or more computer readable media having embodied thereon computer-useable instructions for performing a method of loading data into a database using a browser, the method comprising:

transferring one or more raw informational items from a vendor'"'"'s data source to an e-Store location, wherein transferring comprises storing said one or more raw informational items in a temporary storage table;

creating a derived version of said one or more raw informational items stored in said temporary storage table; and

creating a validation table from said derived version and comparing said validation table to said temporary storage table.

2. One or more computer readable media with computer-useable instructions embodied thereon for performing a method of loading raw vendor data to an e-Store location, the method comprising:

transferring the raw vendor data from a vendor'"'"'s location to an e-Store location;

storing said data in a temporary storage table;

creating a derived version of said raw vendor data;

loading said derived version into one or more operational data tables of the e-Store location;

extracting data from said operational database tables to create a validation table; and

comparing said temporary storage table with said validation table.
