A method and apparatus for pre-processing electronic data requests within the EDI subsystem layer and within the order fulfillment application system. An order interceptor, third-party Available To Promise (ATP) interface, pseudo-sales order workbench, and the reject acknowledgment system processes are provided within the order fulfillment application system to accomplish the pre-processing. The order interceptor performs an asynchronous availability check before a sales order is posted. The result of the ATP check is stored in an ESO, and is applied during the posting process with unique user exits. The result of the ATP check is also used to determine key information about the sales order, such as the sales organization, and division and distribution channels. The pre-processor uses business rules to determine if the ESO should be split into multiple documents for requests satisfied across multiple sales areas. The Workbench provides a customer purchase order view of the ESO that looks, feels and behaves like actual order entry screens. The Workbench also displays messages generated from the pre-processor describing why the ESO was held for review. After the condition is corrected the Workbench re-executes the ESO pre-processor. This continues until all messages are corrected or marked reviewed. The supplier can decide to either accept the request, reject the request or accept individual line items.

An information storage and management system pre-categorizes information in generic categories to which the information generally pertains, to facilitate organization of information with little or no effort on the part of the recipient. Providers send information to user data repositories associated with unique user destination addresses within the system. Identifiers associated with the information allow the recipient to easily assess the nature of the information and conduct further processing of the information if desired. At least one of the identifiers associated with the information is a category identifier, used to place the information in a location within the user data repository reserved for information in that given identified category. One of the ways in which the recipient can further process the information is to place the information in a custom location according to a custom category location within the user data repository. Such custom categorization can further be communicated to the provider or to a data processing station so that subsequent information from the same provider to the same recipient is automatically placed in the custom category location within the user data repository.
