A method is provided wherein at least one established group of details with associated policies is created. Profiles with profile macros are selected and a matrix of fields may be derived from the group(s) and populated. A bulk subset of the matrix may be selected according to search criteria and edits applied to a source dataset selected from the bulk subset to generate a destination dataset, wherein the edits are constrained by the set of associated policies. The invention may be performed over a global electronic network (especially the Internet) in a manner that complies with the effective policies at multiple destination sites.
