Abstract: A method for the online modification, submission and approval processing of a future payment request to afford a user the ability to renegotiate established loan agreement debt terms in which network communications are established between a user, such as a debtor, and a computing device, such as a server or server arrangement, is presented. The method comprises receiving information, at the computing device, regarding the loan agreement debt terms, presenting received information to a debtor, providing an interactive environment enabling a debtor to modify existing terms, submitting modified terms, processing data from the available information using a rules based engine, and processing a future payment request based on at least one decision made by the rules based engine. While online, the user/debtor may engage in revising a rejected future payment request in an attempt to reach a satisfactory renegotiation of debt terms.

Abstract: A system and method for the online settling of a transaction is provided. The system includes a computing device, such as a server or server arrangement, having a rules configured to process available data regarding the debtor party using rules established on behalf of the party to the financial transaction and weighting factors accorded to selected available data related to the debtor party. The rules and weighting factors are employed to establish a transaction settlement offer set conveyable to the user and comprising multiple simultaneously presentable and individually selectable offers, each offer configured to settle the transaction on terms satisfactory to the party to the transaction.

Abstract: A system and method for gathering information pertinent to a transaction, such as one of a plurality of debts, is presented. The design comprises a server arrangement configured to seek information to compile a transaction settlement offer set, the server arrangement configured to seek at least one from a group comprising information related to personal data regarding a user, information related to account data regarding a user account, information related to macroeconomic data, and information related to the transaction. The server arrangement seeks all information from a source separate from the server arrangement and the user.

Abstract: A method and system facilitating the development and distribution of software is provided. The system includes tracking revisions to elements of a database on the computing device by establishing time stamps for each stored element changed at a specified time, enabling a user to select an applicable time period comprising a beginning time point and an end time point, and assembling elements for execution based on time stamps limited to the selected applicable time period.

Abstract: A system and method for the online settling of a transaction is provided. The system includes a server configured to determine a set of curves or planes defining acceptable settlement conditions for the financial transaction, enabling the user to select an acceptable settlement condition using interactive controls or computer implemented controls engageable by the user, such as sliding selectors or rotatable dials or the like, or controls enabling placement of points on a curve or curves. In certain instances, movement or engagement of one control may result in movement or alteration of another control, reflecting interaction between the parameters being controlled as dictated by rules established on behalf of the party to the transaction. The result, once the computer implemented controls present an acceptable settlement condition for the user, is a settlement condition wherein both user and the party to the transaction resolve the transaction on jointly acceptable terms.
