• receiving one or more sets of data extracted from a respective database of a respective publisher system to create one or more sets of one or more respective publisher data records, wherein:
• the data in each set of one or more publisher data records is arranged in one or more publisher fields according to a respective publisher template of a particular publisher system, and
• the one or more of the respective publisher fields correspond to one or more fields of the respective publisher database,
• forwarding each set of publisher data records to the processing computer;
• using the processing computer, parsing all or a portion of the data contained in each set of publisher data records into one or more corresponding sets of one or more recipient data records according to a master template, wherein:
• each set of recipient data records is for a particular recipient system,
• the data in each set of recipient data records being arranged in one or more respective recipient data fields according to a respective recipient template of a particular recipient system,
• the master template includes one or more master fields for establishing a mapping between one or more respective publisher fields of one or more sets of publisher data records and one or more respective recipient fields of one or more sets of recipient data records, and
• forwarding each respective set of recipient data records to a respective recipient system.

A system for integrating data between computer systems comprising:

• a processing system for communicating with a plurality of publisher systems and for communicating with a plurality of recipient systems wherein:
• each publisher system extracts one or more sets of data from a respective publisher database to create one or more sets of one or more publisher data records, wherein:
• the data in each set of one or more publisher data records is arranged in one or more publisher fields according to a respective publisher template of a particular publisher system,
• the one or more of the respective publisher fields correspond to one or more fields of the respective publisher database, and
• each set of publisher data records are sent to the processing computer;
• the processing computer parses all or a portion of each set of publisher data records into one or more corresponding sets of one or more recipient data records according to a master template, the data in each set of recipient data records being arranged in one or more respective recipient data fields according to a respective recipient template of a particular recipient system, and
• the master template includes one or more master fields for establishing a mapping between one or more respective publisher data fields of one or more sets of respective publisher data records and one or more respective recipient fields of one or more sets of recipient data records.

A computer readable medium having computer instructions provided thereon for enabling a computer system to perform a method for integrating data between computer systems, the method comprising:

• receiving a plurality of sets of one or more respective publisher data records each from a respective publisher system,
• parsing all or a portion of the data in each set of publisher data records into one or more sets of respective recipient data records for a respective recipient system according to a master template, wherein:
• the data contained in each respective set of publisher records is arranged according to a respective publisher template,
• the data in each respective set of recipient records is arranged according to a respective recipient template, and
• the master template includes one or more master fields for establishing a mapping between one or more respective publisher fields of one or more respective sets of publisher data records and one or more respective recipient fields of one or more respective sets of recipient data records.

A computer application program operable on a computer system for enabling the computer system to perform a method for integrating data between computer systems, the method comprising:
