Solution Overview

Problem

Business systems often require separate mobile applications for remote access, which is costly and typically implemented only for external tasks, making it difficult to handle in-house systems on mobile devices due to high development costs.

Innovation Solution

An apparatus and method that generates app cards based on business process notifications using standard data in a preset format, such as JSON, allowing for the display and processing of business transactions through a messenger server, enabling mobile access without the need for a separate mobile application.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Ease of operation

If a separate mobile application is developed for remote access to business systems, then mobile accessibility is improved, but development cost increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvemobile accessibilityVSAvoiddevelopment cost
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of operationVSEase of manufacture

Solution Approach 1:

The patent applies universality by making the business system accessible through multiple channels (messenger applications, web browsers, mobile devices) without requiring separate native applications. The business system serves multiple functions including notification display, data entry, and transaction processing through a unified interface that works across different platforms and messengers.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #6Universality (Multi-functionality)

Solution Approach 2:

The patent uses messenger applications as intermediaries between users and the business system. Instead of developing direct mobile applications, the system leverages existing messenger platforms (KakaoTalk, LINE, Naver Whale, etc.) as mediators to provide mobile access, thereby avoiding the need for separate application development while maintaining accessibility.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

2Adaptability or versatility

If separate mobile applications are developed for all business systems, then functionality is improved, but device complexity increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvebusiness system functionalityVSAvoidnumber of applications
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The business system provides universal access through a single platform that works across multiple messengers and devices. Instead of having separate applications for each business system, users can access any business system through any supported messenger application, reducing the number of applications needed while maintaining full functionality.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #6Universality (Multi-functionality)

Solution Approach 2:

The patent merges multiple access channels (different messengers, web browsers, mobile devices) into a single unified business system interface. By combining these access methods and making them interoperable, the system reduces the need for separate applications while maintaining adaptability across different platforms.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #5Merging (Combining)

3Reliability

If business systems are accessed only in office or work site, then system stability is maintained, but work flexibility deteriorates

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvesystem stabilityVSAvoidwork flexibility
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSEase of operation

Solution Approach 1:

Messenger applications serve as intermediaries that enable secure and stable access to business systems from remote locations. These established messenger platforms provide reliable communication channels that maintain system stability while enabling flexible remote work through familiar and trusted interfaces.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

Solution Approach 2:

The patent adds a new dimension of access by enabling business system interaction through messenger applications and web browsers instead of requiring physical presence in the office. This dimensional shift from location-based access to platform-based access maintains system stability while dramatically improving work flexibility.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #17Another dimension (Dimensionality change)

AI summary

An apparatus for supporting business transactions including one or more processors configured to execute instructions and a memory storing the instructions, the execution of the instructions configures the one or more processors to receive a business process notification from a business system, the business process notification including one or business notification details and business process details, generate an app card based on the one of the business notification details and the business process notification, and transmit the app card to a messenger server, the app card being transmitted to a user terminal through the messenger server to be displayed using a messenger application of the user terminal and the generation of the app card being performed using standard data obtained by converting the one of the business notification details or the business process details included in the business process notification according to a preset standard format.
