Unified model design for pending and production information and versioned information

A system for managing updates to stored data, comprising:

• a processor;
• and
• a memory device storing instructions that, when executed by the processor, cause the processor to:
• receive a request to update stored data;
• if updated data corresponding to the request meets a first criteria, update the stored data using the updated data;
• if the updated data meets a second criteria, store the updated data as pending change data;
• enable a user to select a pending view to be displayed that includes view data from both the stored data and the pending change data;
• and
• update the stored data using the pending change data when the pending change data meets a third criteria.

A computer program product embedded in a computer-readable medium and including instructions for managing updates to stored data that, when executed by at least one processor, cause the following to be performed:

• receiving a request to update stored data;
• if updated data corresponding to the request meets a first criteria, updating the stored data using the updated data;
• if the updated data meets a second criteria, storing the updated data as pending change data;
• enabling a user to select a pending view to be displayed that includes view data from both the stored data and the pending change data;
• and
• updating the stored data using the pending change data when the pending change data meets a third criteria.
