Systems and Methods for Generating a Document with Internally Consistent Data

摘要

Systems and methods for generating a document include creating, by a computing device, a link between a first data element in a document and a second data element in a document. A relationship function between the first data element and the second data element is created to define a data dependency between the first and second data elements. One or more verification functions is associated with the link to verify that the data dependency has been me. Each data dependency in the document is verified to determine the data dependency is met. One or more data dependencies are corrected by computing corrected data via the relationship function. Either the first or second data element is replaced with the corrected data. A final document that includes the corrected data is generated.

1. A method for generating a document, the method comprising:
creating, by a computing device, link between a first data element in a document and a second data element in a document; creating, by the computing device, a relationship function between the first data element and the second data element to define a data dependency between the first and second data elements; associating, by the computing device, one or more verification functions with the link to verify that the data dependency has been met; verifying, via the verification functions, that each data dependency in the document is met; correcting, by the computing device, one or more data dependencies that have not been met by computing corrected data via the relationship function; replacing either the first or second data element with the corrected data; and generating a final document that includes the corrected data.
