- the buyer and seller are charged.
- the transaction is created, and the buyer and seller are notified in block 1260.
- the checkout is performed by adding a software checkout function for fixed price items to the software used to checkout auction items, as hosted by an ISAPI server 18.
- the checkout function generates multiple Internet Server Application Program Interface (ISAPI) pages in the process.
- a result object is created at the ISAPI level and passed on to the checkout function for use.
- the ISAPI caller populates a checkout result class with the post information on that page.
- the checkout function validates this new information and completes the purchase. Each validation, as well as the final purchase, changes the state of the checkout result object. This new state will be returned to the ISAPI caller method to process and determine the next steps.
- the public functions of the checkout function class include a class destructor, review result retrieval, and shipping address review result retrieval.
- the class destructor deletes all the memory created by the object.
- the review result retrieval function validates item, quantity, insurance, payment option and user. The validation errors and results are copied into the result object that the function returns.
- the review result retrieval function also calls a purchase ID function to generate a purchase identification number. The purchase identification number is generated during this function in order to guarantee that each checkout is unique and avoid users from duplicating the same transaction by double clicking on the confirm button. A constraint within the bids table disregards any second thread generated by double clicking.
- the shipping address review result retrieval function validates the shipping address for the user and ensures that the seller allows for international shipping when the buyer or buyers choose an international address.
- the shipping address review result retrieval function returns a result object containing at least copies of validation errors and results.
- the protected functions of the checkout function include functions to validate item and quantity, validate payment option, validate insurance, validate user, validate shipping address, and purchase.
- the validate item and quantity function validates that the item exists, is a fixed price item, that the auction is not over, and that the quantity requested is available in the database. The availability of the item is a preliminary check to be repeated during the purchase function. On validation, the item specific data members are populated in the result object for later use.
- the validate payment option function checks for the payment options made available by the seller and checks if the buyer has already chosen one of these options. This function is enacted after the insurance is chosen and the buyer is validated, so that the payment can be redirected if needed.
- the validate insurance function checks whether the seller offers insurance and whether the buyer has chosen that insurance.
- the validate user function checks the user ID and password for the buyer and adds appropriate error signals if necessary.
- the validate shipping address checks to see that all the needed fields like street address, name, zip code and others are filled in by the user. This function also validates international shipping requests against the seller's selling preferences.
- the purchase function contains all the logic to validate availability and adjust the item quantity on a successful purchase. Checkout transactions will confirm their purchase at the final confirmation page with this purchase process wrapper. Transactions with direct credit card billing will use this wrapper to do quantity validation and inventory reduction using an API call, just before the buyer's card is charged to ensure that the buyer's credit card is billed only if the desired quantity is available. In an alternative embodiment, the items are reserved for a time once checkout has begun.
- FIG. 13 shows a diagrammatic representation of a machine in the exemplary form of a computer system 1300 within which a set of instructions, for causing the machine to perform any one of the methodologies discussed above, may be executed.
- the machine may comprise a network router, a network switch, a network bridge, Personal Digital Assistant (PDA), a cellular telephone, a web appliance or any machine capable of executing a sequence of instructions that specify actions to be taken by that machine.
- PDA Personal Digital Assistant
- the computer system 1300 includes a processor 1302, a main memory 1304 and a static memory 1306, which communicate with each other via a bus 1308.
