SETTLEMENT SYSTEM, SERVER DEVICE, MANAGEMENT METHOD, AND NON-TRANSITORY COMPUTER-READABLE STORAGE MEDIUM STORING PROGRAM - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18341282 titled 'SETTLEMENT SYSTEM, SERVER DEVICE, MANAGEMENT METHOD, AND NON-TRANSITORY COMPUTER-READABLE STORAGE MEDIUM STORING PROGRAM

Simplified Explanation

The abstract describes a server device that acquires information related to a settlement transaction from both a printing apparatus and a terminal device. The device then manages and associates the settlement information obtained from both sources.

  • The server device acquires information for printing a first image representing transaction details for a settlement.
  • The device also acquires information related to a request for approval of the settlement from a terminal device.
  • When the feature information in both sets of acquired information corresponds to each other, a management unit manages and associates the settlement information included in both sets of information.

Potential Applications

  • This technology can be applied in various industries where settlements and approvals are required, such as finance, e-commerce, and retail.
  • It can be used in payment processing systems, where transaction details and approval requests need to be managed and associated.

Problems Solved

  • The technology solves the problem of efficiently managing settlement information obtained from different sources.
  • It ensures that the settlement information acquired from both the printing apparatus and the terminal device is properly associated and managed.

Benefits

  • The server device streamlines the settlement process by automatically managing and associating settlement information.
  • It reduces the risk of errors and discrepancies in settlement information by cross-referencing feature information.
  • The technology improves efficiency and accuracy in settlement transactions.
