SOURCE OF RECORD MANAGER

摘要

Method and system are disclosed for identifying and managing sources of record. The sources of record may be any source of information or data that has been sanctioned or otherwise designated as an approved source. Each information source has or may have one or more source templates associated therewith that describe or point to the information source and the information or data therein. A reference template may then be defined that describes or points to certain source templates which are associated with the sources of record. The source of record manager allows the reference templates to be searched for and modified as needed. Once found, the reference templates may be used to access the data or information, or to build interfaces in an integrated application environment.
