Description

Seminar paper from the year 2020 in the subject Computer Science - Commercial Information Technology, grade: 1.3, University of Applied Sciences Bonn (FOM), language: English, abstract: This essay aims to define and explain the comprehensive e-fulfillment process in detail as well as its essential existence within e-marketplaces. The series of sub-processes making up the e-fulfillment process will be presented in the corresponding order of the four phases of transaction. Of all five sub-processes the e-matching process will be covered in further detail. "An e-marketplace (also called e-market, virtual market, or marketspace) is an electronic space where sellers and buyers meet and conduct different types of transactions.". Taking this definition as a reference one can say that an e-marketplace serves as one of the possible platforms for transactions between providers and demanders in electronic-commerce. E-marketplaces differ in their strategy and layout and are composed of a variety of specifications such as branch specificity (vertical- and horizontal marketplaces), different pricing models such as e-auctions, dynamic- and fixed pricing as well as a selection of possible operator models.
