Abstract
An item data management server with rapid item data entry to facilitate database population with physical item data records for physical items in the control of a user. The rapid item data entry includes receiving a media file with at least an image and/or a verbal description for a physical item in which the item data management server may create physical item data record.

A method for operating an item data management server to create a plurality of physical item data records corresponding to a plurality of physical items in the control of a user, the item data management server communicatively coupled to a user terminal via at least one data network, the method comprising:
- presenting a rapid entry generation query to the user terminal, wherein the rapid entry generation query includes a filename field for identifying a plurality of data files upon which to create the plurality of physical item data records;
- receiving, in response to the rapid entry generation query,
- a default category corresponding to all of the plurality of physical items in the control of the user;
- a set of default attributes and user created attributes corresponding to all of the plurality of physical items in the control of the user;
- and
- the plurality of data files identified in the filename field upon which to create the plurality of physical item data records, each data file respective to one of the plurality of physical items in the control of the user;
- creating the plurality of physical item data records based upon the response to the rapid entry generation query;
- altering each of the plurality of physical item data records to include the default category;
- altering each of the plurality of physical item data records to include the set of default attributes;
- associating each of the plurality of data files with a corresponding physical item data record;
- creating a web page that includes information from the physical item data record;
- and at least one other link selected based upon the physical item data record;
- and
- presenting, via the item data management server, the web page to the user terminal.
An item data management server to create a plurality of physical item data records corresponding to a plurality of physical items in the control of a user, the item data management server communicatively coupled to a user terminal via at least one data network, the item data management server comprises:
- processing circuitry;
- a network interface operably coupled to the processing circuitry that supports data transmission with the at least one data network;
- a user interface operably coupled to the processing circuitry;
- and
- memory operably coupled to the processing circuitry, wherein the memory stores operational instructions that cause the processing circuitry to:
- present a rapid entry generation query to the user terminal, wherein the rapid entry generation query includes a filename field for identifying a plurality of data files upon which to create the plurality of physical item data records;
- receive, in response to the rapid entry generation query,
- a default category corresponding to all of the plurality of physical items in the control of the user;
- a set of default attributes corresponding to all of the plurality of physical items in the control of the user;
- and
- the plurality of data files identified in the filename field upon which to create the plurality of physical item data records, each data file respective to one of the plurality of physical items in the control of the user;
- create the plurality of physical item data records based upon the response to the rapid entry generation query;
- alter each of the plurality of physical item data records to include the default category;
- alter each of the plurality of physical item data records to include the set of default attributes;
- associate each of the plurality of data files with a corresponding physical item data record;
- create a web page that includes information from the physical item data record;
- and at least one other link selected based upon the physical item data record;
- and
- present, via the item data management server, the web page to the user terminal.
