Abstract

The present invention relates to methods and systems for automated criteria and attribute generation, searching, auditing and reporting of data. One aspect of an embodiment of the invention includes a method for translating a request for filtering data in a plurality of credit data sources. The method includes receiving a request based on at least one attribute and on at least one modeling criteria, wherein the at least one attribute and the at least one modeling criteria are each associated with a portion of data in a plurality of credit data sources, automatically generating executable computer code associated with the at least one attribute and at least one modeling criteria, wherein the executable computer code is adapted to filter the portion of data in the plurality of credit data sources based at least in part on the at least one attribute and at least one modeling criteria, and storing at least a portion of the executable computer code for use with another request based in part on the at least one attribute and based in part on the at least one modeling criteria.
