1. A computer-implemented method comprising: determining, by a processor, a reference point on a graphical user interface, wherein the reference point is represented by a plurality of coordinates; displaying, on an electronic display, at least two scales on one axis of the graphical user interface, wherein a first scale is less granular than a second scale, both the first and second scales presenting a range of values associated with a business object attribute of a business object; dividing the graphical user interface into tile map entities, the tile map entities spanning the range of values provided on the first and second scales; storing information about the tile map entities in a cache, wherein the stored information in the cache associated with each tile map entity includes an origin, dimensions, an entity identifier attribute, an entity type, and at least one of a start attribute value and an end attribute value, and wherein the origin is represented relative to the reference point, the entity identifier attribute comprising a shorthand identifier having a portion of a position of the tile map entity, and the entity type indicates placement of the tile map entity in a row or a column; retrieving, from the cache, the stored information needed to position a business object visual representation and data related to the business object; and drawing the business object visual representation on the graphical user interface based on the retrieved information needed to position the business object visual representation relative to the two scales; assigning at least one function to at least one user action associated with the business object visual representation, wherein the at least one function is executed in response to the at least one user action; wherein the business object visual representation visually conveys the business object attribute of the business object based on the data related to the business object, the data related to the business object including: an origin and dimensions of the business object visual representation.
