Method of Data Capture, Storage and Retrieval Through User Created Form Templates and Data Item Templates by Executing Computer-Executable Instructions Stored On a Non-Transitory Computer-Readable Medium

摘要

In a method of operating a software engine for storing, organizing and reporting data in an organizational environment through user created templates and data items, users can build highly customizable templates for data and web forms for data entry, with many different specifiable attributes. Related data is linked and can be queried for retrieval. Users can design, create, add, and use unlimited number of forms, reports, business processes, and queries without any additional programming. Metadata objects (mobjects) and data items (ditems) are created by an administrator. Mobject templates are form templates that are rendered into web forms by a render module, and ditem templates are inputs and controls on the web forms. The schema of the production database remains unchanged regardless of user interaction with the system, thus providing a highly customizable data storage and organization system for any business environment.
