Patent number: 8234197Abstract: Systems and methods of allocating transactions among business objects are described. Allocation is accomplished using generated allocation rules that are generated using a hierarchical data structure representative of relationships between the business objects and using predefined rules that characterize the business objects. Each generated allocation rule is associated with at least one of the business objects and is used to query a set of transactions to be allocated. Query results, generated using a generated allocation rule, include the transactions to be allocated to the associated business object. Embodiments are disclosed to illustrate how the invention can be used to allocate sales commissions to members of a sales team. The invention is applicable to a variety of business objects including people, organizations, accounts, tasks, or the like.Type: GrantFiled: April 22, 2011Date of Patent: July 31, 2012Assignee: Oracle International CorporationInventors: Eric L.

Patent number: 7890394Abstract: The present invention includes a system and method for securing information and accessing secured information. In accordance with an embodiment of the present invention, information is secured by associating a context in which the information was generated, for example. To access the secured information, a user provides a point in time and a user identifier, which are used to determine whether that user is authorized to access the information.Type: GrantFiled: February 13, 2004Date of Patent: February 15, 2011Assignee: Oracle International CorporationInventors: Gregory Sandford, Eric L.

Patent number: 7856383Abstract: Systems and methods of allocating transactions among business objects are described. Allocation is accomplished using a multi-phase process. In a first phase, allocation of the transactions among a set of business objects is attempted. In a subsequent phase, allocation of transactions that were either unallocated, under-allocated, or over-allocated in the first phase is determined. The second phase includes using a set of allocation rules to identify business objects configured to manually determine allocation of the unallocated, under-allocated, or over-allocated transactions. The invention is applicable to a variety of business objects including people, organizations, accounts, tasks, or the like.Type: GrantFiled: October 22, 2003Date of Patent: December 21, 2010Assignee: Oracle International CorporatioinInventors: Eric L.

Patent number: 5457305Abstract: A distributed on-line transaction processing system (10) that functions with to any existing credit card and debit bank card processing center (18). The system (10) consists of a customer data-input station (14), a customer service station (16) and a customer transaction booth (20). The system is operated by a primary distributed on-line transaction processing software (30) and two secondary software programs (32, 34). A system transaction begins when a walk-up customer starts the system by passing a card through a magnetic card reader (14B) located in the customer data-input station (14). The customer enters the requested transaction on a touchscreen unit (14C) and the transaction is sent to the customer service station (16). At the station (16), the transaction is processed and sent to the credit and debit bank card processing center (18) where the transaction is either approved or disapproved.Type: GrantFiled: March 31, 1994Date of Patent: October 10, 1995Inventors: William S.
