Customers seeking to acquire new products or services may need to be authorized for the new products or services. The authorization can depend on customer and product information, as well as on different authorization conditions such as qualification, re-qualification, and eligibility conditions. To efficiently authorize a customer for products or services under different authorization conditions, a table stores authorization rules including flags associating the rules with particular authorization conditions. Hence, among the rules that pertain to authorizing the customer for a product or service, one subset of rules can be associated with one authorization condition while a different subset is associated with another authorization condition. The customer is selectively determined to be authorized for the product or service under an authorization condition when the product or service information and/or the customer information satisfy all of the rules associated with the selected authorization condition.

Efficiently authorizing customers for products under different authorization conditions

A computing system contains a processor that is configured to receive, with the user interface, a registered access code and access permissions from a remote user of a property having a property location. The registered access code may be configured to provide access to the property. The access permissions may include a predefined access period that the access code is valid to provide access to the property. The processor may further be configured to receive a provided access code of a local user of the property in response to a user location of the local user being near the property location, match the provided access code with the registered access code, and grant or deny access to the property based in part on the provided access code matching the registered access code and being received within the predefined access period.
