System and method for managing media advertising enterprise data
A system and method for managing media advertising enterprise data. An enterprise data management (EDM) module can be configured to include a set of rules at an enterprise level to manage disparate and disconnected records. A scoring function with respect to each record can be computed based on the rules to determine the highest priority. The rules in association with the scoring function can be stored locally in an EDM database. A matching process can then be performed to accurately match similar records regardless of manual input, location, and format of the records in a distributed system. Each record can then be assigned with a parent enterprise advertiser. Such an optimization mechanism can interactively manage and report records at the enterprise level in a simple and efficient manner.
1. A server device comprising:
a processor and associated memory implementing an enterprise data management module, the enterprise data management module configured to organize and match a plurality of disconnected records associated with market-level entities to a record associated with a common enterprise-level entity, wherein the disconnected records are stored in disparate management systems employed across multiple different markets;
a communications interface configured to:
obtain a set of scoring rules, the set of scoring rules including a workflow-state scoring rule, wherein a workflow state represents a current state of an order within a workflow;
transmit a request message to an enterprise-level management system, wherein the request message includes the set of scoring rules to be used by a media management system included in the enterprise-level management system;
receive, from the enterprise-level management system, scores associated with the plurality of disconnected records, the scores being calculated by the media management system based on the set of scoring rules including the workflow-state scoring rule, wherein the scores associated with the plurality of disconnected records indicate priorities of entities associated with the plurality of disconnected records; and
the processor further configured to present, to a user of the server device, the entities associated with the plurality of disconnected records in an order determined based on the priorities.
2. The server device of claim 1 , further comprising:
a local user database storing domain login and security privilege information associated with the user of the server device;
a gatekeeper module; and wherein
the enterprise data management module is further configured to validate a domain login provided by the user against the domain login and security privilege information stored in the local user database via the gatekeeper module.
3. The server device of claim 1 , wherein the enterprise data management module is further configured to:
interact with and manage data from databases associated with a plurality of instances of a single management platform.
4. The server device of claim 1 , wherein the enterprise data management module is further configured to:
interact with and manage data from databases associated with a plurality of different management platforms.
5. The server device of claim 4 , wherein the enterprise data management module is further configured to:
match records newly added to a first management platform to the enterprise-level entity; and
assign a unique enterprise identifier to the records newly added.
6. The server device of claim 5 , wherein the enterprise data management module is further configured to:
re-match records having changes determined to be key; and
assign a new enterprise identifier to records that have been re-matched.
7. A method for use in a server device, the method comprising:
implementing an enterprise data management module using a processor and associated memory, the enterprise data management module organizing and matching a plurality of disconnected records associated with market-level entities to a record associated with a common enterprise-level entity, wherein the disconnected records are stored in disparate management systems employed across multiple different markets;
obtaining a set of scoring rules from a memory configured to implement a database, the set of scoring rules including a workflow-state scoring rule, wherein a workflow state represents a current state of an order within a workflow;
transmitting, via a network interface, a request message to an enterprise-level management system, wherein the request message includes the set of scoring rules to be used by a media management system included in the enterprise-level management system;
receiving, from the enterprise-level management system, scores associated with the plurality of disconnected records, the scores being calculated by the media management system based on the set of scoring rules including the workflow-state scoring rule, wherein the scores associated with the plurality of disconnected records indicate priorities of entities associated with the plurality of disconnected records; and
presenting to a user of the server device, using the processor and associated memory, the entities associated with the plurality of disconnected records an order determined based on the priorities.
8. The method of claim 7 , further comprising:
domain login and security privilege information associated with the user of the server device in a local user database storing; and
validating, via a gatekeeper service, a domain login provided by the user against the domain login and security privilege information stored in the local user database.
9. The method of claim 7 , further comprising:
interacting with and managing data from databases associated with a plurality of instances of a single management platform.
10. The method of claim 7 , further comprising:
interacting with and managing data from databases associated with a plurality of different management platforms.
11. The method of claim 10 , further comprising:
matching records newly added to a first management platform to the enterprise-level entity; and
assign a unique enterprise identifier to the records newly added.
12. The method of claim 11 , further comprising:
re-matching records with key changes; and
assigning a new enterprise identifier to records that have been re-matched.
13. A non-transitory computer readable medium tangibly embodying a program of instructions, the program of instructions including
at least one instruction to implement an enterprise data management module, the enterprise data management module organizing and matching a plurality of disconnected records associated with market-level entities to a record associated with a common enterprise-level entity, wherein the disconnected records are stored in disparate management systems employed across multiple different markets;
at least one instruction to transmit, via a network interface, a request message to an enterprise-level management system, wherein the request message includes a request for scores associated with the disconnected records, the request including a set of scoring rules to be used by a media management system included in the enterprise-level management system to calculate the scores associated with the disconnected records, and the scoring rules including a workflow-state scoring rule, wherein a workflow state represents a current state of an order within a workflow;
at least one instruction to receive, from the enterprise-level management system, scores associated with the plurality of disconnected records, the scores being calculated by the media management system based on the set of scoring rules including the workflow-state scoring rule, wherein the scores associated with the plurality of disconnected records indicate priorities of entities associated with the plurality of disconnected records; and
at least one instruction to present, to a user of the enterprise data management module, the entities associated with the plurality of disconnected records in an order determined based on the priorities.
14. The non-transitory computer readable medium of claim 13 , further comprising:
at least one instruction to interact with and manage data from databases associated with a plurality of instances of a single management platform.
15. The non-transitory computer readable medium of claim 13 , further comprising:
at least one instruction to interact with and manage data from databases associated with a plurality of different management platforms.
16. The non-transitory computer readable medium of claim 15 , further comprising:
