Methods and systems for managing and analyzing multi-dimensional data are provided. Example embodiments provide a Meta-Object Data Management System “MODMS,” which enables users to arrange and to rearrange the hierarchical relationships of the data on an ad-hoc basis and allows the data to be analyzed using any set of attributes (dimensions) while the system is running. The MODMS represents heterogeneous data in a normalized (standardized) fashion using an object type management system that allows the coercion of one type of object into another different type of object and automatically resolves attribute dependencies. The MODMS supports object transitions for transforming an object from one type to another based upon meeting a defined set of criteria and subject to approval by designated entities. In one embodiment, the MODMS is used to implement an enterprise portfolio management system.
A method in a computer system for managing a plurality of types of enterprise portfolio data as investment items, each investment item having a source investment type and associated with a transition from the source investment type to a destination investment type, the associated transition configured to include indications to zero or more associated criteria and/or approvals, the method comprising:
A memory medium containing instructions for controlling a computer processor to manage a plurality of types of enterprise portfolio data as investment items, each investment item having a source investment type and associated with a transition from the source investment type to a destination investment type, the associated transition configured to include indications to zero or more associated criteria and/or approvals, by performing a method comprising:
A computer-implemented portfolio management system, comprising:
