According to certain aspects, the invention provides advanced software architected to leverage the operational data volumes from IT, intelligent devices and machines supported and maintained by IT or end users for use by business groups or individuals in order to create a low Total Cost of Operation (TCO) processes that enable data sources to be transferred, modified, and computations performed based on the needs of the end users operating independently or within the enterprise data assets To cost effectively capture any data source and place within the enterprise' standard data structures and processes. According to another aspect, the invention provides the end user options with capability to re-structure, copy, and re-position data for corporate and end users for ongoing corporate applications via a selection of options methodology that is supported by usage of the end user versions of spreadsheet software. The purpose is to reduce or eliminate conventional programming or parameter requirements needed in current software solutions to work with data from incompatible sources. One advantage is that the invention can significantly reduce the cost from using and re-formatting these numerous, rapidly growing, incompatible volumes of operational data and information. In one implementation, the invention achieves this with. a solution supporting the end user's data criteria without being impacted by IT complexity, security and data risk issues.
