Stored in a central computer unit (CCU) and a mobile telephone (MT), an encoded logical record acts as main registration (MR), identifies the MT and has user data. As a transaction identification (TID) is queried, on passing to the CCU, the MT's MR is compared with the data stored in the CCU and authorized. A service/goods supplier sends the TID with TID data to the CCU to complete a purchase.

The storage management system determines and issues the state of wares from at least one individual supplier, providing identification and storage locations separately from those of other wares. - An INDEPENDENT CLAIM is included for the corresponding method of wholesale storage of goods.
