  • Enterprise organizational charts are typically created and maintained with organizational charting tools. These tools are used to keep track ofthe current organizational structure ofthe enterprise. These tools are typically stand-alone devices that are maintained by administrators or the like.
  • FIG. 15 is a flowchart depicting a process that can be used to present a project tree to a user according to a preferred embodiment ofthe present invention
  • FIGS. 16-28 are examples of web pages that can be used to implement the present invention in accordance with a preferred embodiment
  • domain nodes can provide additional information, such as formatting information and the like. For example, if a group of domain nodes are to appear together on a spec page, a node referred to as a grouping node can be used to specify this option.
  • each component is a drop-down list-box, such as the list box 419, that is used to accept a value from the user. This value defines the number of times the associated component is to appear in the spec. Note that in one embodiment, if the range of a particular component is equal to 0-1, then instead of a drop-down list-box, a check box is used to indicate whether to include or omit the associated component.
  • FIGs. 5-10 depict a series of web pages that can be generated from the domain tree 300 and the component tree 400.
  • FIG. 4A the web pages generated from the expanded portion of the component tree shown in FIG. 4A are discussed.
  • the web pages associated with a cover for an annual report are described below. After reading the description below, it will become apparent to one or ordinary skill in the relevant art(s) how to generate web pages for any portion domain tree or component tree.
  • FIG. 5 represents an example of a navigation bar.
  • the navigation bar is constructed to allow a user navigate through a spec.
  • Each navigation bar item represents a separate web page in the spec.
  • the content ofthe navigation bar depends on the contents of each particular instance of a spec. Therefore the navigation bar is constructed at run-time, after the completion of a spec definition page, such as the spec definition page 431.
  • the present invention provides tools that allow users to jump around the pages in a spec, it is not always advantageous to do so. Of course this feature is completely dependent upon each specific implementation ofthe present invention.

  • the check box 724 maps to the variable node 423.
  • the check box 726 maps to the variable node 434, and the check box 728 maps to the variable node 728.
  • add 1418, edit 1430, delete 1433 and archive 1434 are defined within each project node 1416.
  • each node can behave differently. For example, when a user deletes one type of node, it may make sense to delete all ofthe children nodes as well. On the other hand, for another node class, it may make sense to just delete the one node and promote the child nodes beneath it.
  • Items can also be removed from a user's home page. All items that have been added to the home page are accompanied by a checkbox. To remove any item, the user can check the box associated with the item and click on "Remove Checked Items” button. This action will of course not remove an item from the project tree, but only from the home page.

  • the other important fields to note here are the start and end bidding dates, and "Best and Final Offer” checkbox.
  • the bid dates entered here are seen by all suppliers on the RFQ once it's submitted.
  • the "Best and Final Offer” button determines whether the bidding scenario will be open or closed. Checking this box will allow suppliers to submit only one bid to the system for the job. If the box is not checked, vendors will be able to re-submit bids until he bidding process is closed, or until the end-bidding date is reached. When this screen is completed the user can start selecting vendors.
  • the Directory is a list of suppliers for which no profiles exist. Users can still send an RFQ to these suppliers, but the project management server does not maintain background information on these companies. Moreover, because there is no profile on these suppliers, the system does not match them to your specific job requirements.

  • users can select the option to issue a PO. This will bring up the PO screen when users approve the job.

  • Users can add Notes to the Job the same way users would add a Note to a Project. If the vendor is on-line, users can also receive communications from that company. This can be accomplished by performing the following steps:

Abstract

L'invention concerne un projet de gestionnaire couplé à un réseau informatique, tel qu'Internet. Dans un mode de réalisation, l'environnement de la gestion de projet comprend également un serveur spec pour compléter des spécifications, établir des demandes de prix, effectuer des ordres d'achat, etc. Un projet d'arborescence représente des objets de gestion de projet, lesquels peuvent être de toute sorte. Les types d'objets sont définis pour chaque implantation particulière du système. Des entités organisationnelles, groupes de travail, individus, projets, budgets, tâches, coûts, feuilles de temps, spécifications, réquisitions, ordres d'achat, listes 'à faire', etc., sont notamment des exemples caractéristiques de types d'objets de gestion de projet. Les objets sont organisés en structure hiérarchique de données, dite arborescence de gestion de projet ou arborescence de projet. Dans chaque arborescence de projet, chaque objet renferme plusieurs procédés qui décrivent le comportement dudit objet. Ces procédés comprennent, par exemple, des procédés qui décrivent comment ajouter l'objet à l'arborescence, le réviser et le supprimer de l'arborescence et l'archiver. Une classe infinie d'objets est documentée, ce qui permet de personnaliser les systèmes, quel que soit le type d'environnement. Dans un mode de réalisation type, l'utilisateur principal configure l'environnement initial du système de gestion de projet comprenant la mise en place de la structure de l'entreprise, la définition des utilisateurs, la spécification des groupes d'utilisateurs, les droits d'accès des utilisateurs, les mots de passe, etc. Une fois le système initial configuré, les utilisateurs se connectent au système de gestion de projet, qu'ils soient à l'intérieur ou à l'extérieur de l'entreprise. Le système détermine l'identité de l'utilisateur et, sur la base de son identité et de ses droits d'accès, lui présente une vue particulière de l'arborescence de gestion de projet personnalisée qui lui est destinée. L'utilisateur peut alors naviguer à travers les sections de l'arborescence de projet auxquelles il a droit. Il peut interagir avec le système de gestion de projet en exécutant des fonctions sur la partie de l'arborescence de projet dans laquelle il est autorisé à exécuter des fonctions, lesquelles sont notamment l'adjonction, la révision, la suppression et l'archivage d'objets de gestion de projet. Les utilisateurs de plusieurs groupes de travail organisationnels participent en utilisant, en collaboration, le système de gestion de projet. Des spécifications sont créées, les fournisseurs sont comparés auxdites spécifications, des demandes de prix (Dprix) sont envoyées aux fournisseurs, des fournisseurs offrent des emplois, des emplois sont attribués par des acheteurs et des ordres d'achat sont créés.
