Description of the invention (2) Reference information. In addition, today's customers and salespeople in companies increasingly use product catalogs, and these people usually need to write in the catalog number and price of the product they want to buy. This type of work takes a considerable amount of time, and errors usually occur when recording or reading the product model. These errors can lead to a number of possible outcomes, including delivering unordered items to customers, incorrect selling prices, and requiring re-delivery. After visiting the customer, the salesperson needs to fill in a long list of product-related services ordered by the customer, and needs to send (usually by post or fax) these goods or services to the customer's home or work. The ordering process can therefore be handled. The information referenced with the payment method can be transmitted separately. Shipping related to the payment method often results in delayed delivery and unclear product purpose. Moreover, for a customer of securities (ie, bonds, stocks, or other securities), the customer or purchaser wishes to sell these securities, and the customer usually remotely sends the particular stock or other that he wishes to trade via telephone or fax. The name and quantity of the securities are written (or typed) and transmitted over the Internet. This may lead to some errors, such as the wrong stock code and the wrong number of purchases, resulting in incorrect transactions, or the change from "buy" to "sell." A simple and error-free mail order and securities are needed. Order method.
