This application provides for determining a suggested action initiation time for an interaction with an interacting party. Some aspects comprise: determining an interaction settlement due date; querying an interaction database storing historical interaction records to determine if there is one or more of the historical interaction records related by one or more factors to the interacting party; retrieving, from the interaction database (where there is one or more historical interaction record(s) related to the interacting party), historical interaction data; determining from the retrieved historical interaction data a predicted processing time for the interaction; and determining, based on the interaction settlement due date and the predicted processing time, the suggested action initiation time. The suggested action initiation time comprises a time by which an action for settling the interaction with the interacting party is suggested to be initiated to effect settlement of the interaction by the interaction settlement due date.

Devices, systems and methods for determining suggested action initiation times for interactions

Methods and devices for generated and handling an alert are described. In one aspect, an electronic device includes an input interface and an output interface. The electronic device also includes a memory storing an application and a processor coupled to the input interface, the output interface and the memory. The processor is configured to generate a selectable alert on the output interface while the electronic device is in a device lock mode. The selectable alert is associated with the secure application. The processor is also configured to, while the electronic device is in the device lock mode, receive, from the input interface, a signal representing a command to activate the selectable alert. The processor is also configured to, responsive to receiving the command to activate the selectable alert, execute a secure event in the secure application while the electronic device remains in the device lock mode.
