Abstract
Described herein are methods and systems for automated license determination. In one aspect, an interface repository comprises a set of data schemas defining a license determination rule structure for all available control regulations offered by data providers. In another aspect, license determination rules for a certain product may be automatically extracted from the interface repository.
Claims20
A computer implemented method for automated license determination for export-import of a product, comprising:
- in a first user interface element, receiving a user selection of a classification of the product;
- presenting a second user interface element generated by the computer comprising a list of one or more conditions relevant to the user selected classification of the product;
- receiving a user selection of the one or more conditions from the list to be applied to the product;
- based on the user selected conditions, generating a user interface comprising a list of one or more license determination rules relevant to the product;
- and
- applying the license determination rule to determine one or more licenses applicable to the export-import of the product.
A computer readable medium comprising computer readable instructions, which, when executed by a computer, cause the computer to perform a method related to export-import of products, the method comprising:
- receiving trade control regulations in a data file complying to a schema by an interface repository;
- registering the received trade control regulations as a determination rule structure by binding the received trade control regulations to a product classification;
- receiving the product classification by a user;
- generating a user interface to present the user with one or more conditions relevant to the classified product;
- receiving a user selection of the one or more conditions to be applied for the classified product;
- and
- based on the user selected conditions, applying one or more license determination rules bound to the user provided product classification to provide the user with the licenses needed to accomplish the export-import task of for the products.
A computer system for automated license determination, comprising:
- a processor in communication with one or more memory elements and operable to execute the instructions in the one or more memory elements;
- an interface repository comprising a set of data schemas defining a license determination rule structure;
- a rule data database stored in the one or more memory elements to integrate the license determination rule structure;
- and
- a registration module stored in the one or more memory elements to save the license determination rule structure in the rule data database.
