Abstract: Methods of generating a help files are presented including: accessing a user model, where the user model defines a number of objects and a number of relationships between the number of objects; selecting an object of the user model; receiving a text file corresponding with the object; creating a component of the help file from the text file; selecting an additional object of the user model, the additional object having a relationship with the object, the relationship corresponding with the number of relationships; and creating an additional component of the help file corresponding with the additional object. In some embodiments, methods further include: detecting a change to the user model; and regenerating the help file to incorporate the change. In some embodiments, methods are presented where the additional component includes: a link to the additional object, and a link to a respective text file of the additional object.

Abstract: A method and system are provided for configuring a user interface to a user role. A user model defines one or more user roles and one or more tasks, each user role being linked to: one or more user tasks via one or more user goals, and a set of skills a user performing the role must have, wherein each task is also linked to one or more skills. A software product defines one or more software functions, and means are provided for linking each user task to a sequence of software function calls. The system includes an organization modeling tool including means for customizing the user model dynamically to alter the user role to task mapping to meet the current needs of an organization including validating the goals and sets of skills of the user model. The system also includes a display structure model including means for configuring a user interface to a user role, the display structure model being a runtime component for dynamically building control menus for groups of tasks depending on the user role of the logged on user.
