In some examples, a service computing device receives an indication that a buyer associated with a buyer profile has selected a first item to purchase from a first merchant site. The service computing device associates information related to the first item with a persistent virtual cart associated with the buyer profile. The service computing device receives an indication that the buyer has selected a second item to purchase from the second merchant site. The service computing device associates information related to the second item with the buyer profile. The service computing device receives, from a buyer device, an indication of intention to purchase the items in the persistent virtual cart. Consequently, the service computing device may send an order for the first item to a computing device associated with the first merchant and an order for the second item to a computing device associated with the second merchant.

Tracking method for containers having removable closures

A method of tracking a container closure used to seal liquid in a container is provided, comprising applying a trackable indicia to a container closure, wherein the trackable indicia is unique to the container closure; recording an associated data set comprising a plurality of parameters related to the liquid in the container; correlating the associated data set with the trackable indicia; applying the container closure to the container to seal the liquid within the container; maintaining a database of the trackable indicia corresponding to the associated data set; and scanning the trackable indicia to retrieve the associated data set from the database. The method of the invention also includes utilization of a container closure having inherent natural imperfections and/or patterns on the top and/or sides of the closure and obtaining scanned images and data thereof which are analyzed and utilized for closure and container identification and likewise serve as scannable trackable indicia.

The embodiments disclose an apparatus including a system and method for displaying wheel styles and artwork on vehicles to allow customers to make an informed purchasing decision at the dealer location regarding different wheel styles or paint colors and paint pattern artwork choices to purchase for their vehicle. This system and method enables a sales person to show a customer a variety of wheel styles, tires, paint colors, paint patterns and various decorations, such as pinstriping, will look on the customers actual vehicle by holograph or conventional projection of the products displayed on the vehicle. Purchasers can also use a smartphone mobile application to superimpose products onto a photo of their vehicle on a smartphone display screen or view images in combination with a smartphone projector or virtual reality headset 3D viewer and their smartphone to get a complete 3D view of the product choices that the user can make for their vehicle.

Integrating and managing social networking information in an on-demand database system
11715110 · 2023-08-01 · ·

Some embodiments comprise integrating information from a social network into a multi-tenant database system. A plurality of information from the social network is retrieved, using a processor and a network interface of a server computer in the multi-tenant database system, wherein the plurality of information is associated with a message transmitted using the social network. Metadata related to the transmitted message is generated, using the processor. A conversation object is generated, using the processor, based on the plurality of information associated with the transmitted message and the metadata related to the transmitted message. The conversation object is then stored in an entity in the multi-tenant database system, using the processor of the server computer.

Detection and breaking of pricing loops in an e-commerce marketplace
11568428 · 2023-01-31 · ·

A system and method of automatically detecting pricing loops by generating a price-history database and searching the database for recurring pricing update patterns. If a price update pattern is detected, then the price republishing is blocked until a next event occurs to interrupt the pricing loop. A pricing engine searches the price-history database before publishing a new price. If a past price recurs multiple times over a predetermined time period, then it is saved as a candidate value for a pricing loop. A current price to be published is compared to the candidate value, and if there is a match, then the current price is suppressed.
