System and method for multi-source transaction processing

An order servicing organization system for routing order requests to multiple order request management systems (“ORMSs”) of fulfillment partners and integrating respective ORMS data from ORMSs of each fulfillment partner, the order servicing organization system comprising:

• a first order request servicing system having an interface to receive an order request from a client system, having a memory storing business relationship information relating a client and the fulfillment partners, and having a processing engine to:
• process the order request into multiple processed order requests;
• select fulfillment partners for each of the processed order requests using the business relationship information;
• for each of the processed order requests, transmit the processed order request to the ORMS of the selected fulfillment partner;
• receive from each of the ORMSs of the selected fulfillment partners ORMS data associated with the processed order request transmitted to the ORMS of the fulfillment partners;
• and
• integrate the received ORMS data from the ORMSs of the fulfillment partners.

A transaction processing system having an order request servicing system for routing order requests to multiple order request management systems (“ORMSs”) of fulfillment partners and integrating respective ORMS data from ORMSs of each fulfillment partner, the order request servicing system comprising:

• means for receiving an order request from a client system;
• means for processing the order request into multiple processed order requests;
• means for selecting fulfillment partners for each of the processed order requests;
• means for transmitting the processed order request to the ORMS of the selected fulfillment partner;
• means for receiving from each of the ORMSs of the selected fulfillment partners ORMS data associated with the processed order request transmitted to the ORMS of the fulfillment partners;
• and
• means for integrating the received ORMS data from the ORMSs of the fulfillment partners.

A program storage device readable by a machine, tangibly embodying a program of instructions executable by the machine to perform a method for utilizing an order request servicing system for routing order requests to multiple order request management systems (“ORMSs”) of fulfillment partners and integrating respective ORMS data from ORMSs of each fulfillment partner, the method for utilizing an order request servicing system comprising:

• receiving with the order request servicing system an order request from a client system;
• processing, by the order request servicing system, the order request into multiple processed order requests;
• selecting, by the order request servicing system, fulfillment partners for each of the processed order requests;
• for each of the processed order requests, transmitting the processed order request to the ORMS of the selected fulfillment partner;
• receiving from each of the ORMSs of the selected fulfillment partners ORMS data associated with the processed order request transmitted to the ORMS of the fulfillment partners;
• and
• integrating the received ORMS data from the ORMSs of the fulfillment partners.

A system comprising:

• a processor;
• a memory coupled to the processor, the memory storing code that is executable by the processor for implementing an order request servicing system for routing order requests to multiple order request management systems (“ORMSs”) of fulfillment partners and integrating respective ORMS data from ORMSs of each fulfillment partner, wherein the code implementing the order request servicing system includes code to:
• receive an order request from a client system in electronic communication with the order request servicing system;
• process the received order request into multiple processed order requests;
• select fulfillment partners for each of the processed order requests;
• for each of the processed order requests, transmit the processed order request to the ORMS of the selected fulfillment partner;
• receive from each of the ORMSs of the selected fulfillment partners ORMS data associated with the processed order request transmitted to the ORMS of the fulfillment partners;
• and
• integrate the received ORMS data from the ORMSs of the fulfillment partners.
