Abstract
Systems and methods for providing a database having a plurality of standard configuration settings are presented. Requests corresponding to modifications to some or all of the standard configuration settings are monitored during customization of the database. A determination of whether the modifications are allowed is made. Based on the determination, a message comprising allowance or denial for each of the modifications is generated. Data characterizing allowed modifications is logged. The logged data is used to update the database when the standard configuration settings of the database change as part of a database upgrade. Data characterizing the allowed modifications is extracted from the logged data and used to generate differences between a newer version of the database and an older version of the database.
