1. A computer-implemented method comprising: via a computational device, configuring a document creation application with an add-in comprising instructions for linking said document creation application with a business management application that runs on a platform of a structured database management system and stores datum in said structured database management system; via a computational device, configuring said add-in with a plurality of tools that, when executed, accesses utilities of said business management application via said document creation application without leaving an interface of said document creation application, wherein said plurality of tools comprises: a check-in tool configured for allowing one or more end users to save one or more versions of a document on said platform; a field definition tool that flags objects within said document as having a field value associated with said object; wherein the field definition tool is configured to define field values to correlate with database definitions used in said structured database management system; and to automatically populate said objects with data from said structured database management system when said field values match said database definitions; and a reconciliation tool configured for comparing flagged objects in a document open in said document creation application against one or more versions of a document on said platform; wherein said reconciliation tool is further configured for presenting one or more differences between field values in the document open in said document creation application and field values in a version of a document on said platform to a user within the document creation application itself.
