Concatenated shipping documentation processing spawning intelligent generation subprocesses
First Claim
1. A method for generating shipping documentation, the method comprising:
- receiving user selection of an intelligent generation shipping processing mode of a shipping management system;
suspending notification of one or more shipping management system advices for generation of the shipping documentation in the intelligent generation shipping processing mode;
defaulting one or more configuration factors for generation of the shipping documentation in the intelligent generation shipping processing mode;
receiving user selection of one or more orders for shipping documentation processing using the intelligent generation shipping processing mode of the shipping management system;
populating a documentation queue of the shipping management system with an instance representing an intelligent generation subprocess adapted to autonomously generate the shipping documentation for the one or more orders; and
spawning the intelligent generation subprocess to autonomously generate the shipping documentation for the one or more orders using the defaulted one or more configuration factors, wherein operation of the intelligent generation subprocess comprises;
determining if a critical issue is present with respect to a suspended advice of the one or more shipping management system advices or a configuration factor for the shipping documentation;
if a critical issue is present, updating the documentation queue intelligent generation subprocess instance to show a failure state for the intelligent generation subprocess and initiating failure state mitigation processing configured to autonomously resolve the critical issue;
if a critical issue is not present or was autonomously resolved by the failure state mitigation processing, interacting with shipping documentation generation functionality to generate the shipping documentation for the one or more orders and updating the documentation queue intelligent generation subprocess instance to show a state for at least one documentation generation milestone; and
failing generation of the shipping documentation when a critical issue is present and could not be autonomously resolved by the failure state mitigation processing.

Abstract
Systems and methods which provide shipping management system shipping documentation generation operation which spawns intelligent generation subprocesses are described. The intelligent generation subprocesses of embodiments facilitate autonomous shipping documentation generation functionality of a concatenated shipping documentation generation process. A user may initiate a shipping documentation generation process, whereby an intelligent generation subprocess is spawned, and thereafter the user may be freed to perform one or more independent operation and/or interaction with the shipping management system. One or more verifications, checks, warnings, and/or the like are suspended and one or more parameter, input, selection, and/or the like are defaulted for operation of an intelligent generation subprocess of embodiments. Embodiments implement a documentation queue to provide historical information with respect to intelligent generation subprocess operation.

17. A system for generating shipping documentation, the system comprising:
-
one or more processors providing shipping management system logic configured to perform a plurality of shipping management functions with respect to a plurality of orders, the shipping management system logic including an intelligent generation shipping processing mode of operation that when implemented suspends notification of one or more shipping management system advices for generation of the shipping documentation in the intelligent generation shipping processing mode of operation, default one or more configuration factors for generation of the shipping documentation in the intelligent generation shipping processing mode of operation, spawn an intelligent generation subprocess to autonomously generate the shipping documentation for one or more selected orders of the plurality of orders using the defaulted one or more configuration factors, and initiate a failure state mitigation process to autonomously resolve a detected critical issue; and a documentation queue of the system configured to store an instance representing the intelligent generation subprocess while autonomously generating the shipping documentation for the one or more selected orders, wherein if a critical issue that could not be autonomously resolved by the failure state mitigation process is present with respect to a suspended advice of the one or more shipping management system advices or a configuration factor for the shipping documentation is failed and the documentation queue intelligent generation subprocess instance is updated to show a failure state for the intelligent generation subprocess and if a critical issue is not present or was autonomously resolved by the failure state mitigation processing with respect to a suspended advice of the one or more shipping management system advices or a configuration factor for the shipping documentation generation functionality generates the shipping documentation for the one or more selected orders and the documentation queue intelligent generation subprocess instance is updated to show a state for at least one documentation generation milestone. - View Dependent Claims (18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29, 30, 31, 32)
