Abstract

Claims (60)

1 . An absence planning system implemented via a back-end application computer server, comprising:

(a) a data store that contains electronic records, each electronic record representing a user, and including, for each user, an electronic record identifier and a set of user parameter values;

(b) the back-end application computer server, coupled to the data store, including:

a computer processor; and

a computer memory, coupled to the computer processor, storing instructions that, when executed by the computer processor, cause the back-end application computer server to:

receive an absence planning request from a first user;

receive data for the first user from the data store and at least one of a first third-party platform and a second third-party platform;

extract data from the received data for the first user;

apply an absence planning algorithm to the extracted data to dynamically generate an absence plan;

output the generated absence plan, the absence plan including job protection estimated pay, milestone dates, next steps and one or more links to additional information;

automatically retrieve a third-party form from a third-party source;

complete the retrieved third-party form using the generated absence plan; and

submit the generated absence plan to one of the first third-party platform and the second third-party platform; and

(c) a communication port coupled to the back-end application computer server to facilitate a transmission of data with remote user devices to support interactive user interface displays, including the absence plan, via a distributed communication network.

2 . The system of claim 1 , wherein the user is associated with the first third-party platform.

3 . The system of claim 1 , wherein the second third-party platform is a government platform.

4 . The system of claim 1 , further comprising instructions that, when executed by the computer processor, cause the back-end application computer server to:

complete a second third-party form using data included in the generated absence plan and data included in the absence planning request.

5 . The system of claim 4 , further comprising instructions that, when executed by the computer processor, cause the back-end application computer server to:

transmit the completed second third-party form to the second third-party platform, initiating a second third-party process.

6 . The system of claim 1 , further comprising instructions that, when executed by the computer processor, cause the back-end application computer server to:

complete a form using data included in the generated absence plan and data included in the absence planning request; and

initiate a resource process in response to submission of the completed form.

7 . The system of claim 1 , wherein the data received from the first third-party platform is received in response to one of a push operation or a pull operation.

8 . The system of claim 1 , wherein the extracted data includes a user location and a leave plan.

9 . The system of claim 8 , further comprising instructions that, when executed by the computer processor, cause the back-end application computer server to:

retrieve second third-party data that is location-specific based on the user location for execution of the absence planning algorithm.

10 . The system of claim 9 , wherein the location-specific second third-party data includes state-based rules.

11 . The system of claim 1 , wherein the data received for the first user from the at least one of the first third-party platform and the second third-party platform is received via execution of an Application Programming Interface (API).

12 . A computer-implemented method comprising:

receiving an absence planning request from a first user;

receiving, in response to the received absence planning request, data for the first user from a data store and at least one of a first third-party platform and a government platform;

extracting data from the received data for the first user;

dynamically generating an absence plan via application of an absence planning algorithm to the extracted data;

outputting the generated absence plan, the absence plan including job protection estimated pay, milestone dates, next steps and one or more links to additional information;

automatically retrieving a third-party form from a third-party source;

completing the retrieved third-party form using the generated absence plan; and

submitting the generated absence plan to one of the first third-party platform and the government platform.

13 . The method of claim 12 , wherein the user is associated with the first third-party platform.

14 . The method of claim 12 , further comprising:

completing a government form using data included in the generated absence plan and data included in the absence planning request.

15 . The method of claim 14 , further comprising:

transmitting the completed government form to the government platform, initiating a government process.

16 . The method of claim 12 , further comprising:

completing a form using data included in the generated absence plan and data included in the absence planning request; and

initiating a resource process in response to submission of the completed form.

17 . One or more non-transitory computer-readable media storing program code that, when executed by a computing system, causes the computing system to perform operations comprising:

receiving an absence planning request from a first user;

receiving, in response to the received absence planning request, data for the first user from a data store and at least one of a first third-party platform and a second third-party platform;

extracting data from the received data for the first user;

dynamically generating an absence plan via application of an absence planning algorithm to the extracted data;

outputting the generated absence plan, the absence plan including job protection estimated pay, milestone dates, next steps and one or more links to additional information;

automatically retrieving a third-party form from a third-party source;

completing the retrieved third-party form using the generated absence plan; and

submitting the generated absence plan to one of the first third-party platform and the second third-party platform.

18 . The media of claim 17 , wherein the second third-party platform is a government platform.

19 . The media of claim 17 , further comprising:

completing a second third-party form using data included in the generated absence plan and data included in the absence planning request.

20 . The media of claim 19 , further comprising:

transmitting the completed second third-party form to the second third-party platform, initiating a second third-party process.
