Using flat data input set for simultaneous application of multiple separate calculations rule sets to obtain multiple output results

1. A method, comprising:

updating database posting logic to obtain an updated database posting logic configured to, during a posting process to a database, add a first data field to a new line item being posted via the posting process, the first data field identifying a relationship of the new line item to a regulatory accounting type of a financial transactional report;

receiving information from a data provider;

before posting the information to the database as a line item comprising a plurality of fields:

adding the first data field to the plurality of fields;

making a determination to split the line item into a first sub-line item and a second sub-line item based on a granularity required for the regulatory accounting type of the financial transactional report;

splitting, based on the determination, the line item to create the first sub-line item and the second sub-line item, the first sub-line item comprising the first data field; and

adding a second data field to the second sub-line item,

wherein:

an aggregate total transaction amount represented by the first sub-line item and the second sub-line item match a total transaction amount of the line item, and

both the first sub-line item and the second sub-line item are used in generating the financial transactional report;

posting, using the updated database posting logic, the information to the database as the line item comprising the plurality of fields;

receiving a request to generate the financial transactional report;

identifying the line item by the first data field identifying the relationship of the line item to the regulatory accounting type of the financial transactional report; and

generating the financial transactional report using the line item.

2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the database is a relational database that provides a real time update to the financial transactional report using the updated database posting logic and the information from the data provider.

3. A method comprising:

updating database posting logic to obtain an updated database posting logic configured to, during a posting process to a database, add a first data field to a new line item being posted via the posting process, the first data field identifying a relationship of the new line item to a regulatory accounting type of a financial transactional report;

receiving information from a data provider;

posting, using the updated database posting logic, the information to the database as a line item comprising a plurality of fields, wherein the posting comprises adding the first data field to the plurality of fields, and adding a second data field to the plurality of fields, the second data field added to relate the line item to an asset;

receiving a request to generate a transaction flow trace;

identifying the line item by the second data field identifying the asset, the asset being associated with a project, the project being associated with at least one object selected from a group consisting of a work order and invoice, the object being associated with a cost; and

generating the transaction flow trace using the line item.

4. The method of claim 1 , wherein the database is an in-memory database.

5. The method of claim 1 , wherein the database is managed by a column-oriented database management system.

6. A non-transitory computer readable medium comprising instructions that, when executed by a computer processor, perform a method comprising:

updating database posting logic to obtain an updated database posting logic configured to, during a posting process to a database, add a first data field to a new line item being posted via the posting process, the first data field identifying a relationship of the new line item to a regulatory accounting type of a financial transactional report;

receiving information from a data provider;

before posting the information to the database as a line item comprising a plurality of fields:

adding the first data field to the plurality of fields;

making a determination to split the line item into a first sub-line item and a second sub-line item based on a granularity required for the regulatory accounting type of the financial transactional report;

splitting, based on the determination, the line item to create the first sub-line item and the second sub-line item, the first sub-line item comprising the first data field; and

adding a second data field to the second sub-line item,

wherein:

an aggregate total transaction amount represented by the first sub-line item and the second sub-line item match a total transaction amount of the line item, and

both the first sub-line item and the second sub-line item are used in generating the financial transactional report;

posting, using the updated database posting logic, the information to the database as the line item comprising the plurality of fields;

receiving a request to generate the financial transactional report;

identifying the line item by the first data field identifying the relationship of the line item to the regulatory accounting type of the financial transactional report; and

generating the financial transactional report using the line item.

7. The non-transitory computer readable medium of claim 6 , wherein the database is a relational database configured to provide a real time update to the financial transactional report using the updated database posting logic and the information from the data provider.

8. The non-transitory computer readable medium of claim 6 , wherein the posting further comprises adding a second data field to the plurality of fields, the second data field added to relate the line item to an asset, wherein the method further comprises:

receiving a request to generate a transaction flow trace;

identifying the line item by the second data field identifying the asset, the asset being associated with a project, the project being associated with at least one object selected from a group consisting of a work order and invoice, the object being associated with a cost; and

generating the transaction flow trace using the line item.

9. The non-transitory computer readable medium of claim 6 , wherein the database is an in-memory database.

10. The non-transitory computer readable medium of claim 6 , wherein the database is managed by a column-oriented database management system.

11. The method of claim 1 , wherein the financial transactional report is one selected from a group consisting of a regulatory accounting report and a financial accounting report.

12. The non-transitory computer readable medium of claim 6 , wherein the financial transactional report is one selected from a group consisting of a regulatory accounting report and a financial accounting report.

13. The method of claim 3 , further comprising

before posting the information to the database as the line item comprising the plurality of fields:

adding the first data field to the plurality of fields;

making a determination to split the line item into a first sub-line item and a second sub-line item based on a granularity required for the regulatory accounting type of the financial transactional report;

splitting, based on the determination, the line item to create the first sub-line item and the second sub-line item, the first sub-line item comprising the first data field; and

adding a second data field to the second sub-line item,

wherein:

an aggregate total transaction amount represented by the first sub-line item and the second sub-line item match a total transaction amount of the line item, and

both the first sub-line item and the second sub-line item are used in generating the financial transactional report.

14. The method of claim 3 , wherein the database is a relational database that provides a real time update to the financial transactional report using the updated database posting logic and the information from the data provider.

15. The method of claim 3 , wherein the database is an in-memory database.

16. The method of claim 3 , wherein the database is managed by a column-oriented database management system.
