Abstract
In some examples, a first difference may be determined across respective first and second workflow elements in a first hierarchical level of respective first and second IT workflow data. A second difference may be determined across respective third and fourth workflow elements in a second hierarchical level of the respective first and second IT workflow data. A display representing the first and second differences may be generated.
Claims17
A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium comprising instructions executable by a processor to:
- receive a model information technology (IT) workflow data of an IT application and a user-customized IT workflow data of the IT application, wherein each of the model IT workflow data and the user-customized IT workflow data includes rules arranged in hierarchical levels;
- determine a first difference between a first rule in a first hierarchical level of the model IT workflow data and a second rule in a first hierarchical level of the user-customized IT workflow data;
- after determining the first difference between the first rule and the second rule in the first hierarchical level, determine a second difference between a third rule in a second hierarchical level of the model IT workflow data and a fourth rule in a second hierarchical level of the user-customized IT workflow data;
- generate a display of the first difference and the second difference in a hierarchical format according to the hierarchical levels of the model IT workflow data and the user-customized IT workflow data, wherein the first difference and the second difference are displayed as selectable options, wherein the first rule includes a first condition clause and a first action clause, and the second rule includes a second condition clause and a second action clause, and wherein the first difference comprises a difference between the first condition clause of the first rule and the second condition clause;
- and
- in response to a selection of one of the selectable options, change the user-customized IT workflow data of the IT application in a user device according to the model IT workflow data.

A method comprising:
- receiving a model information technology (IT) workflow data of an IT application and a user-customized IT workflow data of the IT application, wherein each of the model IT workflow data and the user-customized IT workflow data includes rules arranged in hierarchical levels;
- determining a first difference between a first rule in a first hierarchical level of the model IT workflow data and a second rule in a first hierarchical level of the user-customized IT workflow data;
- after determining the first difference between the first rule and the second rule in the first hierarchical level, determining a second difference between a third rule in a second hierarchical level of the model IT workflow data and a fourth rule in a second hierarchical level of the user-customized IT workflow data;
- and
- generating a display of the first difference and the second difference in a hierarchical format according to the hierarchical levels of the model IT workflow data and the user-customized IT workflow data, wherein the first difference and the second difference are displayed as selectable options, wherein determining the first difference comprises determining a difference between a first segment of a computer language text in the first rule and a second segment of a computer language text in the second rule, and wherein determining the second difference comprises determining a difference between a third segment of a computer language text in the third rule and a fourth segment of a computer language text in the fourth rule.

A system comprising:
- a processor;
- and
- a memory comprising instructions executable by the processor to:
- receive a model information technology (IT) workflow data of an IT application and a user-customized IT workflow data of the IT application, wherein each of the model IT workflow data and the user-customized IT workflow data includes rules arranged in hierarchical levels;
- determine a first difference between a first rule in a first hierarchical level of the model IT workflow data and a second rule in a first hierarchical level of the user-customized IT workflow by determining a difference between a first segment of a computer language text in the first rule and a second segment of a computer language text in the second rule;
- after determining the first difference between the first and second rules in the first hierarchical level, determine a second difference between a third rule in a second hierarchical level of the model IT workflow data and a fourth rule in a second hierarchical level of the user-customized IT workflow data by determining a difference between a third segment of a computer language text in the third rule and a fourth segment of a computer language text in the fourth rule;
- generate a display of the first difference and the second difference in a hierarchical format according to the hierarchical levels of the model IT workflow data and the user-customized IT workflow data, wherein the first difference and the second difference are displayed as selectable options;
- and
- in response to a selection of one of the selectable options, change the user-customized IT workflow data of the IT application in a user device according to the model IT workflow data.
