Abstract

Claims (50)

1. A computer-implemented method for providing purpose-based checkpoints on user actions, the computer-implemented method comprising, by one or more hardware processors executing program instructions:

receiving, from a user, a request to perform an action;

determining a checkpoint config object associated with the action, wherein the checkpoint config object includes criteria including at least one of: a required acknowledgement, a required selection from a dropdown, or a required written response;

causing display of a checkpoint dialog based on the checkpoint config object, wherein the checkpoint dialog comprises at least one of: a request for the required acknowledgement, a request for the required selection from a dropdown, or a request for the required written response;

receiving a user input via the checkpoint dialog;

determining, based on the user input, whether the criteria of the checkpoint config object are satisfied; and

in response to determining that the criteria of the checkpoint config object are satisfied:

generating a checkpoint record object;

storing information indicative of the user input in the checkpoint record object; and

proceeding to perform the action.

2. The computer-implemented method of claim 1 , wherein said causing display of the checkpoint dialog comprises:

providing instructions to a user device to display the checkpoint dialog.

3. The computer-implemented method of claim 2 , wherein the instructions comprise at least one of: a title, a description, or a prompt.

4. The computer-implemented method of claim 1 , wherein the user input comprises at least one of: an acknowledgement, a selection from a dropdown, or a written response.

5. The computer-implemented method of claim 1 further comprising, by the one or more hardware processors executing program instructions:

in response to determining that the criteria of with the checkpoint config object are not satisfied:

denying the request to perform the action.

6. The computer-implemented method of claim 1 , wherein said generating the checkpoint record object comprises:

enriching the checkpoint record object with information associated with the action.

7. The computer-implemented method of claim 6 , wherein said enriching the checkpoint record object with information associated with the action comprises:

receiving information from a service associated with the action.

8. The computer-implemented method of claim 1 , wherein the checkpoint config object comprises at least one of: a checkpoint type, or one or more conditions.

9. The computer-implemented method of claim 1 , wherein said determining any checkpoint config objects associated with the action comprises:

determining whether a checkpoint type, or one or more conditions, associated with checkpoint config objects are satisfied.

10. A system comprising:

a computer readable storage medium having program instructions embodied therewith; and

one or more processors configured to execute the program instructions to cause the system to perform the computer-implemented method of claim 1 .

11. A computer-implemented method for configuring purpose-based checkpoints on user actions, the computer-implemented method comprising, by one or more hardware processors executing program instructions:

receiving, from a first user, a checkpoint configuration comprising at least:

a specification of an organization;

a specification of a checkpoint type;

a specification of a checkpoint prompt; and

a specification of a justification type, wherein the justification type comprises at least one of: an acknowledgement, a selection from a dropdown, or an input of a written response;

generating a checkpoint configuration object including the checkpoint configuration; and

in response to a request to perform an action:

determining applicability of the checkpoint configuration object to the action based on the checkpoint configuration;

causing display of a checkpoint dialog based on the checkpoint configuration object, wherein the checkpoint dialog comprises at least one of: a request for the acknowledgement, a request for the selection from a dropdown, or a request for the written response; and

storing information indicative of a user input received via the checkpoint dialog in a checkpoint record object.

12. The computer-implemented method of claim 11 , wherein the checkpoint configuration further comprises: one or more conditions, wherein the conditions comprise rules for activating the checkpoint configuration.

13. The computer-implemented method of claim 11 further comprising, by the one or more hardware processors executing program instructions:

receiving, from the first user, a request to view checkpoint configuration objects; and

displaying checkpoint configuration objects based on properties and permissions associated with the user, wherein the checkpoint configuration objects include the checkpoint configuration object.

14. The computer-implemented method of claim 11 further comprising, by the one or more hardware processors executing program instructions:

receiving, from the first user, a request to view checkpoint record objects; and

determining and displaying checkpoint record objects based on properties and permissions associated with the first user.

15. The computer-implemented method of claim 14 further comprising, by the one or more hardware processors executing program instructions:

determining and displaying one or more properties associated with the checkpoint record objects.

16. The computer-implemented method of claim 15 , wherein said determining one or more properties associated with the checkpoint record objects comprises:

determining one or more properties associated with one or more of the checkpoint record objects that the first user does not have permission to view; and

redacting the determined one or more properties from display.
