A recently granted patent (Publication Number: US11928744B1) outlines a method for a cloud-based enterprise resource planning (ERP) system to receive electronic requests from remote network client devices of a specialized software platform. The ERP system integrates into the networked technical environment of the software platform by receiving real-time preferences regarding conditions for invoking electronic services. These conditions are stored in an electronic database accessible to the ERP system and client devices. The ERP system then determines if the conditions are met and automatically transmits the requests to a specialized service engine for processing. The service engine performs cloud computing using multiple processors to aggregate data, generate electronic records, and determine if data values meet specified thresholds, transmitting this information back to the client devices in real-time.

Furthermore, the method includes generating records of geographic apportionment of aggregated data for different geographical areas and providing information on potential nexus of entities associated with the client devices based on this data. The system stores rules for various geographical areas, compares entity data against these rules, and generates information on potential nexus for each area. Notifications are then sent to client devices, alerting them of the potential nexus. Additionally, the method focuses on improving network efficiency by receiving data from client devices, aggregating and apportioning it geographically, storing preference data, detecting conditions, and determining if data values meet specified thresholds. Notifications are then sent to client devices based on these determinations, ensuring efficient processing and transmission of specialized data to a diverse range of client devices.
