System and method for facilitating the handling of a dispute using disparate architectures
First Claim
1. A system for facilitating handling of a post-transactional credit dispute comprising:
- a first workstation capable of receiving commands from a dispute-resolution initiator;
a second workstation capable of receiving commands from a dispute-resolution responder;
a server in communication with said workstations;
a storage having a plurality of pre-existing dispute handling forms stored thereon, said forms having pre-defined content capable of being viewed and field-populated by said workstations, said forms capable of being transmitted between said workstations such that said initiator selects an initiator form from a pre-existing initiator form selection and transmits said initiator form to said responder, said responder views said initiator form and selects a responder form from a pre-existing responder form selection and transmits said responder form to said initiator and so on; and
a communication channel coupling said workstations and said database.

Abstract
A system is disclosed for handling post transactional credit disputes in real-time via a variety of transactional environments and architectures. The system includes one or more workstations linked to a communication channel and one or more servers with at least one having capability of displaying a plurality of pre-existing dispute handling forms. A party in dispute may access the forms, choose an appropriate dispute handling form, provide data in the pre-defined requested fields on the form, and transmit the form over the communication channel to a server for processing. A server accepts a User ID and password from a user, retrieves and displays a set of dispute handling forms, receives input entered on the forms, routes the forms to a second user in dispute, and makes the forms available for viewing to the second user. The program may further index the data entered on the forms using a code-based method.

12. A method executed in a network computer system for facilitating handling of a post-transactional credit dispute, the network computer system having a first client system and a second client system, the method comprising:
-
from said first client system, retrieving a plurality of pre-existing dispute handling forms having pre-defined content and being digitally represented;
transmitting one of said forms to said second client system, thereby initiating resolution of a post-transactional credit dispute;
notifying said second client system of said form;
from said second client system, reviewing said form received from said first client system;
retrieving a second plurality of pre-existing dispute handling forms having pre-defined content and being digitally represented; and
transmitting one of said second forms to said first client system, thereby responding to said post-transactional credit dispute. - View Dependent Claims (13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18)
