Appeal No. 2001-0024
Application No. 08/827,285 Page 6
(final rejection, page 4) that Bigus fails to disclose objects
that contain business financial data and perform general ledger
operations. The examiner additionally asserts (id.) that Bigus
fails to disclose object classes that include an analysis group,
an account type group, and other account attributes used in
ledger account maintenance.
To overcome these deficiencies of Bigus, the examiner turns
to Marks for a teaching of a computer program that performs
various record keeping functions. The examiner asserts (id.)
that it would have been obvious to combine Marks’
automated ledger account maintenance system with the teachings of
Bigus' object oriented data mining system for the purpose of
creating financial related application programs, such as general
ledge software, that are much easier for an application program
developer to update and maintain. The examiner further relies
upon Marks for a teaching of a computer program that performs
various record keeping functions found in a business. The
examiner additionally relies upon Marks for a teaching of a
computer program for record keeping procedures that uses system
accounting controls definable by the record keeping entity whose
accounts are dynamically maintained by the system.
