Methods and systems (70) for operating a computer to facilitate financing inquiries about possible financing transactions are described. The method includes the steps of prompting a customer to select a financing type (73) or prompting the customer to provide background information related to a financing requirement (86) and providing the customer with a recommended financing product (90). The system is, in the exemplary embodiment, accessible to the customer via a network such as a wide area network, for example, an extranet accessible via the Internet, so that the customer can query the database and identify financing types that meet specific requirements.
