  • Publication number: 20230245214
    Abstract: Systems and methods for managing purchases for an organization using a rules engine are disclosed. A purchasing system accesses an electronic message and parses a plurality of elements therefrom. The purchasing system generates a parsing tree using the plurality of elements. Based on the parsing tree, the purchasing system determines purchase order information. The purchasing system automatically verifies the purchase order information by executing at least one rule. The purchasing system generates a digital credit object configured to allow the user to make the purchase and provides the digital credit object to the user.

  • Patent number: 11645701
    Abstract: Systems and methods for managing purchases for an organization using a rules engine are disclosed. A purchasing system receives a purchase request message and extracts purchase order information associated with a request to make a purchase. Using the extracted purchase order information, a purchase order object is generated. Based at least in part on the purchase order information, a set of rules applicable to the purchase order object is identified, the rules including at least one condition and at least one action. The set of rules can also be identified based in part on contextual information. The at least one action is applied to the purchase order object. Upon receiving authorization from an approval entity, a digital credit object is generated to fulfill the purchase request and the digital credit object is provided to the user.

  • Publication number: 20230073085
    Abstract: The systems and methods may identify order requests from internal messaging or collaboration systems. Once order requests are identified, the systems and methods determine purchase orders based on the requests, and generate tokens (e.g., virtual credit cards) specific to a purchase order, to be used by the requestor to complete the purchase of requested items or services. Once the tokens are used, the systems and methods may then track the purchases in various databases, providing the organization with various views or insights into their employee's expenditures.

  • Patent number: 10650687
    Abstract: In one implementation, a pair of messages are received from one or more space-based receivers that each received the pair of messages. The pair of messages comprise encoded position information of a transmitter, and a plurality of candidate locations for the transmitter is determined therefrom. A location of the transmitter is determined by eliminating candidate locations until only one remains. In particular, each candidate location that is not within a coverage area of each of the space-based receivers is eliminated, and each candidate location that is not within a predetermined distance of at least one previous candidate location is eliminated. In addition, it is determined that the remaining candidate location is within the coverage area of each of the space-based receivers as well as within the predetermined distance of at least one previous candidate location. Upon determining the location of the transmitter, it is transmitted to a subscriber system.
