Abstract

A data structure includes a first field and a second field to link a data object of a first type and a data object of a second type to an account. A computing system selects a data object of the second type to update the second field by accessing the first field and, based on the access, accesses a second data store to retrieve a data object of a third type. A third data store is accessed to determine a set of data objects of the second type. The system standardizes the set of data objects of the second type and the set of data objects of the third type to compare the data objects. Based on the comparison, the system orders the set of data objects and causes display of the ordered set. The user interface displays a subset of the set of data objects according to the ordering.

Dependent claims

An apparatus, comprising:

one or more processors;
and
one or more memories having program instructions stored thereon, the program instructions executable by the one or more processors to:
store, in a first data store, a data structure for a user account, wherein the data structure includes a first field usable to link one or more data objects of a first type to the user account and a second field usable to link one or more data objects of a second type to the user account;
perform a procedure to select a data object of the second type to update the second field for the user account, wherein, to perform the procedure, the program instructions are executable by the one or more processors to:
configure user interface information for a user interface associated with the procedure;
access the first field of the data structure for the user account;
based on the access to the first field, access a second data store to retrieve one or more data objects of a third type;
access a third data store to determine a set of data objects of the second type, wherein the set of data objects of the second type includes a greater number of data objects than the user interface is usable to initially display;
perform one or more standardization operations on the set of data objects of the second type and the set of data objects of the third type;
perform comparison operations between standardized data objects of the second type and standardized data objects of the third type;
generate, based on the comparison operations, an ordering of the set of data objects of the second type;
cause display of the user interface according to the user interface information, wherein the user interface displays a subset of the set of data objects of the second type according to the ordering;
receive user input to select a displayed data object of the second type;
and
update the second field for the user account to link the selected data object of the second type to the user account.

A method, comprising:

storing, by a computing system in a first data store, a data structure for a user account, wherein the data structure includes a first field usable to link one or more data objects of a first type to the user account and a second field usable to link one or more data objects of a second type to the user account;
performing, by the computing system, a procedure to select a data object of the second type to update the second field for the user account, wherein the procedure includes:
configuring user interface information for a user interface associated with the procedure;
accessing the first field of the data structure for the user account;
based on the accessing the first field, accessing a second data store to retrieve one or more data objects of a third type;
accessing a third data store to determine a set of data objects of the second type, wherein the set of data objects of the second type includes a greater number of data objects than the user interface is usable to initially display;
performing one or more standardization operations on the set of data objects of the second type and the set of data objects of the third type;
performing comparison operations between standardized data objects of the second type and standardized data objects of the third type;
generating, based on the comparison operations, an ordering of the set of data objects of the second type;
causing, by the computing system, display of the user interface according to the user interface information, wherein the user interface displays a subset of the set of data objects of the second type according to the ordering;
receiving, by the computing system, user input to select a displayed data object of the second type;
and
updating the second field for the user account to link the selected data object of the second type to the user account.

10 more elements

A non-transitory computer-readable medium having instructions stored thereon that are executable by a computing device to perform operations comprising:

storing, by a computing system in a first data store, a data structure for a user account, wherein the data structure includes a first field usable to link one or more data objects of a first type to the user account and a second field usable to link one or more data objects of a second type to the user account;
performing, by the computing system, a procedure to select a data object of the second type to update the second field for the user account, wherein the procedure includes:
configuring user interface information for a user interface associated with the procedure;
accessing the first field of the data structure for the user account;
based on the accessing the first field, accessing a second data store to retrieve one or more data objects of a third type;
accessing a third data store to determine a set of data objects of the second type, wherein the set of data objects of the second type includes a greater number of data objects than the user interface is usable to initially display;
performing one or more standardization operations on the set of data objects of the second type and the set of data objects of the third type;
performing comparison operations between standardized data objects of the second type and standardized data objects of the third type;
generating, based on the comparison operations, an ordering of the set of data objects of the second type;
causing, by the computing system, display of the user interface according to the user interface information, wherein the user interface displays a subset of the set of data objects of the second type according to the ordering;
receiving, by the computing system, user input to select a displayed data object of the second type;
and
updating the second field for the user account to link the selected data object of the second type to the user account.
