Systems, Methods, User Interfaces, and Development Environments for a Data Manager

A computer-implemented method includes maintaining one or more databases that collectively store organizational data associated with an organization and an object graph data structure having a plurality of data objects associated with the organizational data. The method further includes generating a formula field which includes one or more dependent fields, wherein the formula field is defined and evaluated using a query expression that makes reference to the object graph data structure. The method further includes, in response to a value of at least one of the one or more dependent fields changing to an updated value, automatically updating a value of the formula field based on the updated value of the at least one of the one or more dependent fields, and enabling inclusion of the formula field in one or more of a report, a policy, a workflow, a trigger, or a rule.
