System and method for assisting in selling vehicles
First Claim
1. A system for assisting in selling vehicles, the system comprising an application server, a database server connected with the application server by a network, and a plurality of mobile terminals connected with the application server by a communication channel, wherein:
- the application server comprises a cache manager, a replication manager, and a domain manager, wherein;
the cache manager is used to receive and store information sent by the mobile terminals and the database server;
the replication manager comprises a first data filter module, which is used to filter information added in the database server, and to modify existing information in the database server and the mobile terminals; and
the domain manager is used to manage domains;
each of the mobile terminals comprises a budget module, a link-switching module, a data synchronization module, a second data filter module, and a data storage, wherein;
the data storage is used for storing information downloaded from the application server and input from the mobile terminals;
the link-switching module is used for switching states of connection as between the mobile terminal and the application server, said states of connection comprising a connected state and a disconnected state;
the budget module is used for calculating fees relating to vehicles within the purview of a client, using budget definition information stored in the data storage;
the data synchronization module is used for downloading information for synchronization from the application server, and for storing the downloaded information in the data storage; and
the second data filter module is used for filtering modification of data stored in the data storage, said modification performed when the mobile terminal is in the disconnected state, and for sending data thus modified to the data synchronization module; and
the database server is used for storing information on clients, vehicles, employees and budget definitions.

Abstract
A system for assisting in selling vehicles includes a database server (107), an application server (103) to access and handle information stored in the database server, and mobile terminals (101) each connected with the application server by communication channels (115, 113). Each mobile terminal includes a budget module (306), a link-switching module (303), a data synchronization module (309), a data filter module (307), and a data storage (310). The link-switching module is for switching states of connection as between the mobile terminal and the application server. The budget module is for calculating fees relating to vehicles using budget definition information stored in the data storage. The data synchronization module is for downloading information for synchronization from the application server. The data filter module is for filtering modification of data in the data storage, said modification performed when the mobile terminal is disconnected.
