1. Technical Field
The present disclosure relates to an information processing system for performing a purchase ordering process.
2. Description of the Related Art
As a form of transaction that allows a contract, payment, or the like to be made by way of a network has become popular, purchase orders for goods and services are placed over a network. Such a purchase order is placed by a consumer specifying an item or service with reference to images, text, or the like on a web site, for example.
When utilizing this form of transaction, however, the consumer could specify and place a purchase order for a wrong item or service because he/she does not see the actual item at the time of order. Thus, there is a need for a mechanism for enabling cancellation of a purchase order for an item or service placed over a network, or a mechanism for allowing the consumer to check before placing a purchase order whether the item or service is correctly specified in the order, and techniques related to networked order systems have been disclosed (see Japanese Unexamined Patent Application Publication Nos. 2002-259768 and 2008-176414).
