Abstract

A process for configuring electronic information for presentation at an interactive electronic device with which an item may be ordered, including the steps of: providing an original template presentation created at a first location to include a plurality of template items; providing a database to include a plurality of database items; and configuring, using a computer, the information to include each template item that is also a database item. A template data record can be associated with each template item, and a local data record can be associated with each database item. Additionally, a process for presenting display information at an interactive electronic device, including the step of configuring the display information for presentation by tagging as active for display, a cell associated with a template item that is also a database item. Different types of cells can be accommodated. Also, a system for configuring electronic information for presentation at an interactive electronic device, including: an original template presentation created at a first location to include a plurality of template items; a database to include a plurality of database items; and a communications medium for transmitting the original template presentation to a computer; wherein the template presentation includes a set of instructions for configuring, using the computer, the information to include each template item that is also a database item.
