Efficiently authorizing customers for products under different authorization conditions

Abstract

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.
