Disclosed is an improved computer architecture for generating an electronic data layout by having a user input a portion of dataset and obtaining the remaining portion of the format data from a data storage that stores reusable data for various data layouts. A master data object is configured to store “request-agnostic data,” which is typically that portion of dataset that does not differ, or is common, between various data layouts. The data that differs between various data layouts, such as the data that is specific to a form, may be considered as “request-specific data.” When a data layout generation request is received, the user may be prompted to input request-specific data, but not the request-agnostic data. The system automatically obtains the request-agnostic data from the master data object, and integrates the request-agnostic data with the request-specific data to generate the form.
