Abstract: A system and method for dynamically discounting trade debt through the use of a forward auction is provided. In one example, a system that allows a seller to auction inventory to a plurality of bidders. According to this embodiment, the system may determine eligibility for acceptance of bids submitted by the bidders and a plurality of bids may be determined to be eligible for acceptance. Further, a margin by which the bids are acceptable may be determined and a representation of the margin may be communicated. In another example, a method is provided for discounting debt using an auction system. According to this embodiment, a seller may configure an auction event with auction parameters, such as hurdle rates, that will best serve the goals of the auction. The seller may alter event parameters while the event is ongoing, thus further enhancing the ability of the seller to meet auction objectives.

Abstract: Systems, methods and computer-readable media are provided for receiving an indication to suspend a first event associated with a first resource indicator that is stored in a first data file associated with a first resource management software utilized by a first entity. A second indication to suspend the first event is determined to be provided by a second entity utilizing a second resource management software, the second indication to suspend the first event indicating a modification to both the first data file associated with a first resource management software and a second data file associated with the second resource management software. The first data file is reconciled by instructing the first resource management software to modify the first resource indicator in the first data file so as to correspond to a modification to a second resource indicator associated with the second data file.
