ABSTRACT:
A system providing seller pre-qualification during the matching phase of an electronic commerce transaction includes a directory structure44comprising multiple hierarchically organized product classes, each product class categorizing multiple products and defining one or more attributes of the products categorized in the product class. The system also includes one or more pointers for each product class, each pointer identifying a seller database32in which product data enabling a product transaction is stored for products categorized in the product class. Each seller database32is associated with a seller30having values for one or more seller attributes. The system further includes a search interface45operable to communicate, in response to selection of a product class and specification of one or more seller attribute criteria, a search query for product data only to one or more seller databases32associated with sellers30having seller attribute values matching the specified seller attribute criteria, these seller databases32being identified by the one or more pointers associated with the selected product class.
