  • Patent number: 6799179
    Abstract: A globally-integrated RMA (Returned Material Authorization) information system is proposed, which allows the RMA files built at a first global location, such as an oversees service station, to be shared by personnel at a second global location, such as a domestic repair center. The service station information system is capable of transferring RMS files periodically at specified time intervals to the repair center information system, so that when the domestic repair center receives a batch of returned products from the oversees service station, the repair personnel can immediately gain access to the associated RMS files of the returned products, without having to repeat a testing procedure and build RMS files for the returned products. The proposed globally-integrated RMA information system therefore allows the overall after-sale repair service to be more efficient and reliable.

  • Publication number: 20030061108
    Abstract: The invention pertains to a method of online purchasing and inventory distribution of materials. Through the combination of an inventory management system and an accounting system, approved materials are temporarily stored in a supplier's temporary stored area in a storage of the purchaser. Only after the materials are indeed shipped to the production lines will the payment procedure begin. Using such a model of online purchasing to pay at the same time materials are used can transfer part of the material stocking cost over to the suppliers, thus lowering the stocking cost at the purchaser. Applying this method of completing material payment at the same time materials are supplied can not only simplify material shipping procedure but also ensure the timing for materials needed immediately on the production lines.

  • Publication number: 20030061138
    Abstract: This specification discloses a web trading method for reducing stocking costs. This is achieved mainly by establishing a real-time material supply trading procedure with a materials supplier through a web trading system. The invention includes the following steps. A forecast order containing a material forecast demand is sent from a purchaser to a materials supplier. The materials supplier temporarily stores materials according to the material forecast demand in the storage of the materials supplier. The purchaser can timely send out a real-time demand order containing material real-time demands to the materials supplier according to the production demands to ask the materials supplier to provide the material real-time demands accordingly. At the moment, the materials supplier retrieves the real-time material quantities required in the real-time demand order from its storage and sends them to the purchaser.
