SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR MANAGING INVENTORY AND SALES USING A WIRELESS NETWORK

摘要

A system (104) and method for managing inventory using a wireless computer (106) is web-enabled and has identification of inventory items for a whole distribution area. The wireless computer transmits item search information to the inventory management system (104) to determine if an item is in the inventory within a distribution area. If the item is present, the wireless computer receives payment information (206) which is transmitted to the inventory management system (104), which then generates an order and initiates delivery of the item to the customer (502).
