Abstract

A system for assisting execution of commercial activities by using a mobile terminal (109) includes a client data storing module (305) for storing data on clients, a pending event storing module (306), and an executing data storing module (303). The pending event storing module includes an executing commercial activities interface (401), and a data sheet for storing pending events (404). The executing commercial activities interface connects with the client data storing module and the executing data storing module, accesses data stored in the client data storing module, sends corresponding data to the executing data storing module, and displays data stored in the data sheet for storing pending events. The executing data storing module records data on execution of commercial activities. A related method for assisting execution of commercial activities is also disclosed.

Claims

1. A system for assisting execution of mobile commerce via a mobile terminal, the system comprising:

a client data storing module for storing data on clients;

an executing data storing module; and

a pending event storing module;

wherein

the pending event storing module comprises an executing commercial activities interface and a data sheet for storing pending events;

the executing commercial activities interface connects with the client data storing module, the data sheet for storing pending events and the executing data storing module, accesses data stored in the client data storing module, sends corresponding data to the executing data storing module, and displays the data sheet for storing pending events; and

the executing data storing module records data on execution of commercial activities.

2. The system for assisting execution of mobile commerce as claimed in claim 1, wherein the client data storing module comprises a basic data sheet and a detailed data sheet.

3. The system for assisting execution of mobile commerce as claimed in claim 1, further comprising a bar code scanning module for reading bar codes of clients.

4. The system for assisting execution of mobile commerce as claimed in claim 1, further comprising an issued information storing module which connects with the basic data sheet for storing data on issued information on an enterprise.

5. The system for assisting execution of mobile commerce as claimed in claim 4, wherein the executing commercial activities interface accesses data stored in the issued information storing module.

6. A method for assisting execution of mobile commerce, the method comprising the steps of:

(a) scanning a bar code of a client;

(b) displaying data on the client represented by the bar code;

(c) displaying one or more pending events related to the client;

(d) displaying steps for executing all pending events; and

(e) storing data on commercial activities in an executing data storing module.

7. The method for assisting execution of mobile commerce as claimed in claim 6, wherein the step of scanning a bar code of a client can be substituted by the step of inputting the client'"'"'s name and/or a code of the client.

8. The method for assisting execution of mobile commerce as claimed in claim 6, further comprising the step of:

receiving data input by a sales representative during execution of commercial activities, and storing the data to the executing data storing module.

9. A method of assisting a sales representative to execute mobile commerce in visiting a customer, comprising steps of:

providing the sales representative with connection to a center database via a mobile server when said sales representative is visiting or ready to visit a customer regardless of whether said customer is new or old;
