ORDER FULFILLMENT MANAGEMENT
A system receives an order from a user and evaluates a plurality of potential sources for items of an order as well as delivery options. Combinations of sources and delivery options are assigned a score according to factors such as cost, delivery time, and supply chain factors. A prior-used delivery option for the user is determined and the scores are adjusted to indicate higher desirability for combinations including the prior-used delivery option. A combination is selected and fulfillment of the order is invoked. The source and/or delivery option for an order may be adjusted after fulfillment has begun in response to user instructions or detected disruptions. A user may specify a preferred delivery option that will be used unless a combination not including the preferred delivery option meets a threshold condition. The system may analyze past orders of a user and identify lower cost delivery intervals and/or destinations.
ON-SALE VEHICLE SHARING ACCESSORY DEVICE AND SYSTEM
Systems and methods disclosed herein include providing an on-sale vehicle, receiving an access request for the on-sale vehicle from a buyer, approving the access request, transmitting at least one authentication key, confirming an identity of the buyer, initiating a test drive, monitoring the test drive, and completing a transaction upon conclusion of the test drive including revoking the at least one authentication key in response to the buyer not purchasing the on-sale vehicle or revoking an authentication key of a prior titleholder in response to the buyer purchasing the on-sale vehicle.
Methods and Systems for Remote Shopping
In some embodiments, systems, apparatuses and methods are provided herein useful to facilitate and fulfill remote shopping or remote item selection. In some embodiments, a shopping system is provided that includes a shopping or selection user interface configured to receive a shopping list, a database of shopping lists, an item retriever user interface configured to display multiple shopping lists stored by the database, and a central computer. By one approach, the central computer presents a set of shopping lists, via the item retriever user interface, from the database of shopping lists, receives a list selection, receives an indication that one or more of the requested items has been retrieved from the item retriever user interface (or the point of sale terminals in communication with the central computer), and updates the database accordingly.
Method and Electronic Device for Unified Settlement of Online Shopping
The present disclosure discloses a method and device for unified settlement of online shopping. The method includes the following steps: a first identification step for identifying a behavior that a user adds a desired virtual commodity into a shopping cart of; a second identification step for identifying a behavior that the user adds a desired physical commodity into the shopping cart; and a settlement step for settling in a unified way the money amount of the a virtual commodity and the physical commodity paid by the user in one time. According to the present disclosure, the commodity settling system of the shopping website can be simplified; an additional novel settling system does not need to be developed for the a virtual commodity; and the labor of workers for maintenance is greatly reduced.
Venue experience management
Systems and methods are disclosed for venue experience management. In one implementation, one or more inputs originating at one or more sensors of a first device are received at a communication interface of a location determination device, one or more inputs originating at one or more sensors of a second device are received at the communication interface of the location determination device, a processing device of the location determination device processes the one or more inputs originating at the one or more sensors of the first device in relation to the one or more inputs originating at the one or more sensors of the second device to determine a relative proximity of the first device in relation to the second device, and one or more actions are initiated based on the relative proximity of the first device in relation to the second device.
Item flow visualization for outbound fulfillment
Disclosed are various implementations for generating one or more visualization regions in a user interface indicative of a state of a fulfillment center. A visualization region may be generated comprising one or more visual identifiers, labels, and metrics describing one or more stages in a fulfillment process. In response to a manipulation of a portion of the visualization region, a predefined action may be initiated.
SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR CREATING AND MANAGING A DATA ATTRIBUTE CONDITION TRIGGER MATRIX
Systems and methods of the present disclosure include processors to receive at least one data attribute condition trigger selection having a matrix identifier, a condition identifier and data attributes. The processors generate data attribute condition trigger entries in a data attribute condition trigger matrix of the matrix identifier and store the data attribute condition trigger matrix in a matrix library. The processors employ the data attribute condition trigger matrix by receiving an electronic request, including a request type and a request identifier, and determining the data attribute condition trigger matrix in the matrix library associated with the electronic request by matching the request identifier to the matrix identifier. The processors automatically generate a request value for the electronic request by matching the request type to the condition identifier and applying the data attributes of the data attribute condition trigger entry associated with the condition identifier to the electronic request.
ORDER PROCESSING METHOD AND TERMINAL
An order processing method includes: obtaining first order information and order sharing condition information, and generating an order sharing invitation message according to the first order information and the order sharing condition information; receiving an answer message returned by a target terminal according to the order sharing invitation message, and obtaining, according to the answer message, second order information and an acknowledged data transfer state indicated by the second order information; performing combination processing on the first order information and the second order information according to the acknowledged data transfer state returned by the target terminal, and generating settlement order information; and performing settlement on the settlement order information according to the order sharing condition information when the settlement order information meets an order sharing condition indicated by the order sharing condition information. A success rate and convenience of sharing orders by users are improved.
INTERACTIVE USER INTERFACE BASED ON ANALYSIS OF CHAT MESSAGES CONTENT
A method of adapting a webpage comprising monitoring textual content inputted to a user interface of an IM service by participant(s) of an IM session managed by the IM service, the user interface is displayed on a display of a client device, performing an analysis of the textual content to identify query conditions defining at least one feature of the product or the service, generating an interactive UI according to at least a portion of the query conditions and an identity of the at least one participant, storing the adapted interactive UI to be available to a browser via a link, automatically inputting the link into the IM session so as to allow the participant(s) to access the adapted interactive UI using a browser running on the client device, and submitting an order based on completing data received from the participant(s) via the adapted interactive UI.
METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR ORDER FULFILMENT
A method of fulfilling an order comprising at least one product is provided. The method includes receiving an order comprising at least one product, determining a suitable case from a plurality of available cases for holding the at least one product, said determining being a function of one or more characteristics of each product of the at least one product and one or more characteristics of the plurality of available cases; forwarding information identifying the suitable case to a case former; providing a case blank corresponding to said suitable case to said case former; erecting a suitable case from said case blank corresponding to said suitable case with said case former; and prior to the loading said suitable case with said at least one product, labelling said suitable case with at least one label.
