Abstract:

In an example embodiment, a solution that automatically creates handling strategy rules for a normalized question record is provided. An expected format of an answer to a normalized question stored in the normalized question record is determined, along with one or more expected features of an answer to the normalized question. Then, in response to a determination that a first field in a first database matches the expected format of the answer and the expected features of the answer, a data retrieval rule is created identifying the first field in the first database, and, in response to a determination that one or more data transformation rules should be created, one or more data transformation rules are created to alter one or more formatting aspects of the first field in the first database to match the expected format of the answer.

Abstract:

In an example embodiment, a questionnaire mapping record uniquely corresponding to a computerized document is retrieved, the questionnaire mapping record containing one or more question records, each of the one or more question records uniquely corresponding to a different question contained in the computer document and containing a mapping to a normalized question record containing a normalized version of the corresponding question. Then, for each of the question records in the questionnaire mapping record, a no normalized question record identified in the mapping in the question record corresponding to the question is obtained and one or more handling strategy rules contained in the normalized question record are executed to automatically obtain and format information needed to prepopulate an answer to the question, the executing including retrieving information from a member profile corresponding to the member from the social networking service in accordance with the data retrieval rule.
