Patent number: 11789852Abstract: Systems, media, and methods for automatically generating test accounts using a test account generator are disclosed. Responsive to an indication of a selection of a product of interest from among a list of products, fields of information corresponding to the selected product, as well as enabling the testing of the test account, are generated. Permission to access a plurality of servers containing data corresponding to the fields of information is requested. Responsive to permissions to access the plurality of servers being granted, a test data set including data corresponding to the fields of information is produced and transmitted to the test account generator. Upon receiving the test data set, the included data is populated into corresponding fields of information to generate the test account.Type: GrantFiled: October 26, 2020Date of Patent: October 17, 2023Assignee: Capital One Services, LLCInventors: Neeraj Sharma, Jeffrey A.

Publication number: 20230322541Abstract: A water-dispensing device includes a cold water tank and a fill valve. The tank is in selective fluid communication with a water intake via the fill valve. The device further includes a cold dispensing valve, a spigot in selective fluid communication with the tank via the cold dispensing valve, an ozone generator in fluid communication with the tank, and a drip tray positioned beneath the spigot. The drip tray is in fluid communication with a drain via a drain hose. A controller is configured to perform a cleaning operation by: (i) activating the ozone generator to ozonate water stored in the tank, (ii) opening the cold dispensing valve to empty the tank by dispensing the ozonated water from the tank through the spigot and into the drip tray, and (iii) upon determining the tank is empty, opening the fill valve to refill the tank.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 6, 2023Publication date: October 12, 2023Applicant: Quench USA, Inc.Inventors: Todd Chamberlain PETERSON, Andrew Troy NUTTALL, Theodore HERTZ

Patent number: 11775420Abstract: The present disclosure is directed to systems, media, and methods of accessing data from a test settlement file. An application programming interface (API) configured to permit alteration of one or more fields of test data in a test data file is exposed by a settlement generator. One or more fields of test data exposed by the API are altered. A test data file in a configurable format is generated based on the one or more fields of test data and alteration. The test data file is transmitted from the settlement generator to an orchestrator. A binary file, converted from the test data file, is transmitted from the settlement generator to a third-party processor. One or more pieces of data from a test settlement file are retrieved by the settlement generator, where the test settlement file includes processing results of the binary file received from the third-party processor.Type: GrantFiled: February 24, 2021Date of Patent: October 3, 2023Assignee: Capital One Services, LLCInventors: Andrew Troy Hartwell, Neeraj Sharma, Siwatm Piyasirisilp, Suresh Vadigi, Jason Bean

Patent number: 11698895Abstract: Disclosed herein are system, method, and computer program product embodiments for managing a databank system. The databank system may have multiple databanks and each databank may have one or more repositories storing records (e.g., test data). The databank system exposes an application programming interface (API) and the databank system is managed by transmitting API calls to the exposed API. These API calls may be displayed to a user via GUI such that the user can copy the API call and paste the API call (or a modified version of the API call) into the code of other software application. Further, the databank system enables the owner of a databank or repository to share the databank or repository with other users accordingly to various access privileges. Further still, the databank system enables individual records to be reserved by a user, rendering the record invisible to other users until an expiration.Type: GrantFiled: February 24, 2021Date of Patent: July 11, 2023Assignee: Capital One Services, LLCInventors: Andrew Troy Hartwell, Siwatm Piyasirisilp, Suresh Vadigi, Neeraj Sharma, Jason Bean
