Abstract: A shopping server accepts a request for estimation of arbitrary designated items given by a client terminal, and generates estimation data for the designated items in accordance with the accepted request. The shopping server stores the generated estimation data at a shopping DB system. In response to retrieval of inventory status information for the items indicated by the estimation data stored in the shopping DB system, the shopping server updates the estimation data concerned in accordance with the retrieved inventory status information. The shopping server presents the updated estimation data to other client terminal in response to a request given by the client terminal which requested the estimation.

Abstract: A user ID and a corporation ID for identifying an organization to which the user belongs are pre-registered in association, and the corporation ID of the organization to which the user belongs is specified based on a login name entered when the user logs in a shopping site by a terminal (S1). Based on the specified corporation ID, a user ID of a user which is associated with the same corporation ID is specified (S2). Based on the specified user ID, order placement information corresponding to the user ID is searched for (S3), and an order placement condition for a predetermined period, of the organization to which the user belongs is displayed on the terminal (S4).

Abstract: There is provided a network shopping system that contributes to the omission of the item to be purchased and the prevention of purchasing an unnecessary item. Information of equipment that each client possesses is stored in net member DB. A main item, an option, or an item having a tendency to be used at the same time, are associated with an item related thereto and stored in related item DB. When a user inputs individual identification information for authentication processing, the system searches net member DB to specify equipment that the user possesses. Next, the system gains access to related item DB, searches a related item, and recommends the item to the user.

Abstract: The system according to the present invention allows users to handle their own discriminative information such as “order No.” when using the online shopping service, because the system associates first discriminative information (user's order No.) with second discriminative information generated by the system. The second discriminative information is also associated with order data. Therefore, the system can specify the order data, even if the user notifies user's order No. to the system. According to this effect, the users are allowed to handle only their own discriminative information, thus, their tasks for managing purchase activities will be simplified.

Abstract: A server sends a Web page including product information to at least one customer terminal, in response to accessing from the customer terminal. The server receives contact information sent from the customer terminal, in association with the sent Web page. The server acquires information regarding a customer corresponding to the at least one customer terminal, in accordance with the received contact information. The server acquires information regarding a corresponding sales staff, in accordance with the acquired information regarding the customer. The server sets an e-mail address included in the acquired information regarding the sales staff as an addressee. Then, the server sends an e-mail including the acquired information regarding the customer and the received contact information, to a sales staff terminal.

Abstract: A server sends an input form for inputting a customer ID to a customer terminal having accessed the server, in response to accessing from the customer terminal. The server receives the customer ID sent from the customer terminal in association with the sent input form. Upon retrieval of customer information corresponding to a user in association with the received customer ID, the server sets one or more corresponding items of the retrieved customer information in a member form for inputting member information. The server sends the member form wherein the one or more information items are set to the customer terminal, and stores the member information sent from the customer terminal in a member-information database.
