  • Patent number: 10937075
    Abstract: Techniques are disclosed for improved linking of customers with suppliers in a software-as-a-service system based on community supplier information. The techniques include the system suggesting to customers holding customer accounts with the system that the customers establish customer-supplier links between private supplier records of the customers and supplier accounts of suppliers. Unconventionally, the system makes the suggestions based on matching private supplier records of the customers with community master supplier records of the suppliers. The system stores the community master supplier records based on private supplier records in the community of customers that are associated together by the system according to their similarity. Once a private supplier record of a record is matched to a community master supplier record for a supplier, the system suggests to the customer that the customer link the matched private supplier record to a supplier account of the supplier.

  • Patent number: 10896430
    Abstract: A fraud detection system for detecting fraudulent acts related to payment discounts from digital transactional data is disclosed. In some embodiments, the fraud detection system is programmed or configured with data structures and/or database records that are arranged to detect an occurrence of a triggering event, such as receiving an early payment discount by a buyer account from a supplier account. The fraud detection system is programmed to analyze how a first amount charged for certain items by the supplier account to the buyer account before the triggering event has changed to a second amount after the triggering event from digital documents related to procurement transactions. The certain items may include items for sale or for other miscellaneous items. The digital documents may include catalogs, purchase requisitions, purchase orders, or invoices.

  • Publication number: 20200134727
    Abstract: Document creation systems and methods are provided for a potential risk relationship between an enterprise and an entity. A back-end application computer server may include a data collection engine to exchange information with a remote entity device associated with the entity. A bundle creation engine may receive the information about the entity and automatically and dynamically create a potential bundle of optional risk relationship components (each associated with an electronic file representing an optional risk relationship component document). A presentation engine may present information about the potential bundle and receive an indication of a selected subset of the potential bundle of optional risk relationship components. A final document construction engine may automatically construct, based on the selected subset and associated electronic files representing component documents, an electronic file representing a risk relationship package document to be transmitted to the remote entity device.

  • Publication number: 20200019932
    Abstract: Touchless supplier information management. A computer-implemented method comprises, before a delayed processing timing has been met, obtaining supplier record data for supplier records created for a particular supplier as a first set of supplier record field values. The supplier records were created based on a previous version of a master supplier record for the particular supplier. The previous version of the supplier record was determined based on a previous set of supplier record data for a previous set of supplier records created for the particular supplier. When the delayed processing timing has been met, a new master supplier record of the particular supplier based on the first set of supplier record field values. A request to create a new supplier record for the particular supplier is received, particular supplier record data is determined based on the new master supplier record for the particular supplier, and the data is provided in response to the request.

  • Patent number: 10460847
    Abstract: A gravity-based, non-invasive method of measuring a level of fluid in a container comprises use of at least one gravity meter located as proximate a center of mass of the fluid as possible. In a nuclear reactor system a method for monitoring the level of fluid in a nuclear reactor module, a report of a loss or gain of fluid within a cylindrical module may be generated from capturing a time series of gravity data from a first gravity meter mounted as an upper gravity meter and a second gravity meter mounted as a lower gravity meter, for example, proximate a cylindrical nuclear reactor module so as not to require any invasive conduit through, for example, a containment pressure vessel (CPV) or a reactor pressure vessel (RPV). In one embodiment, the upper and lower gravity meters are mounted on stable mounts as close to the fluid in the module as possible within a coolant pool or a structure containing cooled air.

    Abstract: Techniques for implementing conditional approval chains through a spend management system are described herein. In an embodiment, a spend management system stores data defining a plurality of conditional approval chains. The system receives a request to perform a particular transaction between a first account and a second account. The system identifies a particular conditional approval chain, of the plurality of conditional approval chains, for the transaction, the particular conditional approval chain comprising a particular condition based on a particular rating value for a particular account and a consequent comprising a requirement for approval from a third account. Using the particular rating value for the second account, the system computes a result of the particular conditional approval chain.
