Abstract

See full text

A computerized system for managing and tracking automated package delivery. Upon ordering of a product from a vendor on-line, transaction-related information is placed on the customer's computer by the vendor's computer. Transaction-related information is also placed on the customer's computer by the shipper responsible for transporting the product from the vendor's location to the customer's location. A tracking module on the customer's computer reads the information left on the customer's computer by the vendor and shipper and generates and displays a customer-interface form listing relevant shipping information for the customer to view and make changes on. Customer changes to the shipping information are sent back to the vendor's computer and shipper's computer by the customer's tracking system. If the shipping changes are made by the vendor and/or shipper, the information is sent back to the customer's computer, for processing by the tracking module, and displayed on the updated customer-interface form.
