Computer-implemented methods and computer systems for scheduling the execution of an action
Computer-implemented methods and computer systems are provided for executing at least one action in response to the content of a data object describing an event or incident triggering the at least one action. As disclosed herein, the at least one action to be executed may be determined on the basis of the content of the data object and an execution plan object may be generated on the basis of the determination of the at least one action. Further, the execution plan object may include a schedule of the execution of the at least one action and the at least one action may be executed according to the execution plan object schedule.
1 . A computer-implemented method for executing at least one action in response to the content of a data object describing an event or incident triggering the at least one action, the method comprising:
determining the at least one action to be executed on the basis of the content of the data object; and
generating an execution plan object on the basis of the determination of the at least one action, the execution plan object comprising a schedule of the execution of the at least one action and the at least one action being executed according to the execution plan object schedule.
2 . A method according to claim 1 , further comprising creating an execution document on the basis of the execution plan object, the execution document comprising execution step instructions.
3 . A method according to claim 1 , wherein the execution plan object is generated on the basis of a standard execution plan rule.
4 . A method according to claim 1 , wherein the incident is a commission case and wherein the action to be executed is a remuneration payment, the remuneration payment being effected on the basis of an individual payment plan.
5 . A method according to claim 2 , wherein the incident is a commission case and wherein the action to be executed is a remuneration payment, the remuneration payment being effected on the basis of an individual payment plan.
6 . A method according to claim 3 , wherein the incident is a commission case and wherein the action to be executed is a remuneration payment, the remuneration payment being effected on the basis of an individual payment plan.
7 . A computer system for executing at least one action, comprising:
a computing unit;
a data object component for managing a set of data objects, the data objects of the set of data objects containing a description of an event or incident triggering at least one action to be executed;
an execution plan module for generating an execution plan object on the basis of a determination of the at least one action, the execution plan object comprising a schedule of the execution of the at least one action; and
an execution module for executing the at least one action to be executed according to the execution plan object schedule.
8 . A computer program product comprising a computer-readable medium, the computer-readable medium comprising instructions suitable for carrying out a method for executing at least one action in response to the content of a data object describing an event or incident triggering the at least one action, the method comprising:
determining the at least one action to be executed on the basis of the content of the data object; and
generating an execution plan object on the basis of the determination of the at least one action, the execution plan object comprising a schedule of the execution of the at least one action and the at least one action being executed according to the execution plan object schedule.
9 . A computer program product according to claim 8 , the method further comprising creating an execution document on the basis of the execution plan object, the execution document comprising execution step instructions.
10 . A computer program product according to claim 8 , wherein the execution plan object is generated on the basis of a standard execution plan rule.
11 . A computer program product according to claim 8 , wherein the incident is a commission case and wherein the action to be executed is a remuneration payment, the remuneration payment being effected on the basis of an individual payment plan.
12 . A computer system for executing at least one action in response to the content of a data object describing an event or incident triggering the at least one action, the system comprising:
means for determining the at least one action to be executed on the basis of the content of the data object; and
means for generating an execution plan object on the basis of the determination of the at least one action, the execution plan object comprising a schedule of the execution of the at least one action and the at least one action being executed according to the execution plan object schedule.
13 . A computer system according to claim 12 , further comprising means for creating an execution document on the basis of the execution plan object, the execution document comprising execution step instructions.
14 . A computer system according to claim 12 wherein the means for generating an execution plan object generates an execution plan object on the basis of a standard execution plan rule.
15 . A computer system according to claim 12 , wherein the incident is a commission case and wherein the action to be executed is a remuneration payment, the remuneration payment being effected on the basis of an individual payment plan.
