System and user interface enabling user order item selection for medical and other fields
First Claim
1. A user interface system enabling user selection of related order parameters identifying an order for providing an item or service, comprising a repository including information identifying candidate items for an order and associated corresponding related order parameters, an individual item for an order being associated with a plurality of related order parameters;
- and a user interface processor for providing data representing a display image identifying an initial complete candidate order including a plurality of related order parameters, in response to user entry of order associated data, in response to user selection of a first order parameter, having a first value and associated with said initial complete candidate order, providing data representing a plurality of different individually user selectable complete candidate orders individually incorporating values of said first order parameter excluding said first value, said complete candidate orders being derived using said repository and based on user ordering history and selecting one of said plurality of different individually user selectable complete candidate orders in response to user command.

Abstract
A user interface system reduces the number of user interactions required in order data entry by providing data representing a candidate order for provision of an item or services including user modifiable values of a set of related attributes and provides further candidate alternatives in response to user selection of an attribute value and other heuristics. A user interface system enabling user selection of related order parameters identifying an order for providing an item incorporates a repository including information identifying candidate items for order and associated corresponding related order parameters. An individual item for order is associated with multiple related order parameters. A user interface processor provides data representing a display image identifying an initial complete candidate order including multiple related order parameters, in response to user entry of order associated data. In response to user selection of a first order parameter, having a first value, of the initial complete candidate order, the user interface processor provides data representing multiple different individually user selectable complete candidate orders individually incorporating values of the first order parameter excluding the first value, the complete candidate orders being derived using the repository and based on user ordering history. The user interface processor selects one of the multiple different individually user selectable complete candidate orders in response to user command.

15. A user interface system enabling user selection of related order parameters identifying an order for providing an item, comprising:
-
a repository including information identifying candidate items for order and associated corresponding related order parameters, an individual item for order being associated with a plurality of related order parameters; and
a user interface processor for, providing data representing a display image identifying an initial complete candidate order including a plurality of related order parameters, in response to user entry of order associated data, in response to user selection of a first order parameter, having a first value and associated with said initial complete candidate order, providing data representing a plurality of different individually user selectable complete candidate orders individually incorporating alternative values of said first order parameter excluding said first value, said complete candidate orders being derived using said repository and based on user ordering history and selecting one of said plurality of different individually user selectable complete candidate orders in response to user command.

16. A method enabling user selection of related order parameters identifying an order for providing an item, comprising the activities of:
-
storing information identifying candidate items for order and associated corresponding related order parameters, an individual item for order being associated with a plurality of related order parameters;
providing data representing a display image identifying an initial complete candidate order including a plurality of related order parameters, in response to user entry of order associated data;
in response to user selection of a first order parameter, having a first value and associated with said initial complete candidate order, providing data representing a plurality of different individually user selectable complete candidate orders individually incorporating values of said first order parameter excluding said first value, said complete candidate orders being derived using said repository and based on user ordering history; and
selecting one of said plurality of different individually user selectable complete candidate orders in response to user command.
