Abstract

See full text

Embodiments relate to systems and methods for generating iterated distributions of data in a hierarchical database. A data store can store data in a hierarchical format, for instance, in a tree. Higher-level data, such as yearly profit, may be desired to be spread from parent nodes to lower nodes, such as nodes representing quarters. A spreading tool can insert child nodes representing quarters, months, or other at insertion point(s) represented or encoded by a set of placeholder nodes, dividing quantities appropriately. In aspects, the spreading tool can access or host sequence logic including multiple sets of spreading rules which each ensure that data is spread in an order that takes dependencies, formatting, outputs, or other factors into account. In aspects, the spreading tool can receive or generate a prioritized ordering of the sets of spreading rules, to ensure that data distribution passes are iterated in a desired or error-free order.
