Computer system and method for management of user interface data

A computer-implemented method of processing data related to a plurality of user interfaces for supporting interactions with at least one computer system, comprising:

• generating, by a web system server comprising at least one computer processor, a first graphical user interface of a plurality of graphical user interfaces, including one or more fields for entry of information;
• a next action user selection configured to cause the web system server to transmit data to the at least one computer system, the at least one computer system being configured to parse the transmitted data to determine one of a plurality of processes to be performed by a legacy computer system;
• and one or more user-selectable process indications configured to cause the web system server to generate one of the other of the plurality of graphical user interfaces for display;
• receiving, via the first graphical user interface, a user selection of a user-selectable process indication;
• generating, by the web system server, responsive to the user selection of one of the user-selectable process indications, one of the other of the plurality of graphical user interfaces for display;
• wherein each of the plurality of graphical user interfaces corresponds to one of the plurality of processes;
• and wherein at least two of the plurality of processes are arranged in a sequence, and at least a second one of the processes is allowed to be performed, in accordance with instructions provided by the at least one computer system to the legacy computer system, only subsequent to performance of a first one of the plurality of processes in the sequence, and wherein the at least one other computer system, responsive to receipt of a submit message from the web system server via the one of the graphical user interfaces corresponding to the second one of the processes, requires performance of the first process prior to transfer of the second process to the legacy computer system;
• wherein a plurality of state switches and associated state indicators provide process direction to the at least one computer system, each one of a plurality of states associated with the state switches corresponding to one of the sequential processes, and associated state variables include data indicative of whether each of the processes has been executed, the at least one computer system configured not to permit a process to be executed by the legacy computer system unless the state variables indicate that all preceding processes have been executed.

A computer system for processing data relating to a plurality of user interfaces, comprising:

• a data storage device storing data relating to a plurality of processes;
• a web server system comprising at least one computer processor, configured to generate a first graphical user interface of a plurality of graphical user interfaces, including one or more fields for entry of information;
• a next action user selection configured to cause the web system server to transmit data to at least one computer system for performance of one of the plurality of processes;
• and one or more user-selectable process indications configured to cause the web system server to generate one of the other of the plurality of graphical user interfaces for display;
• a dispatcher system comprising at least one computer processor and in communication with the web server system and the data storage devices, and configured to manage communication with the web server system;
• and
• a legacy computer system, comprising at least one computer processor, in communication with the dispatcher system, the legacy computer system configured to perform one or more data processing functions;
• wherein the dispatcher computer system is configured to determine, responsive to receipt of data from the web server system, one of the one or more processes to be performed by the legacy computer system;
• wherein at least two of the plurality of processes are arranged in a sequence, at least a second one of the processes being allowed to be performed, in accordance with instructions provided by the dispatcher computer system to the legacy computer system, only subsequent to performance of a first one of the plurality of processes in the sequence, and wherein the dispatcher computer system is configured to, responsive to receipt of a submit message from the web server system via the one of the graphical user interfaces corresponding to the second one of the processes, require performance of the first process prior to transfer of the second process to the legacy computer system;
• wherein a plurality of state switches and associated state indicators provide process direction to the dispatcher computer system, each one of a plurality of states associated with the state switches corresponding to one of the sequential processes, and associated state variables include data indicative of whether each of the processes has been executed, the dispatcher computer system configured not to permit a process to be executed by the legacy computer system unless the state variables indicate that all preceding processes have been executed.
