Product, system, and method for determining secondary locations for fulfillment of items by a fulfillment system

Abstract:

Provided are a computer program product, system, and method for determining secondary locations for fulfilment of items by a fulfilment system. A request is received for an item from a user. A primary location of the user is determined. User information in a data source is processed by a natural language processing module to determine whether the user has travel plans to a secondary location for a travel time period that includes an expected delivery date of the item to the secondary location. A determination is made of a secondary attribute of the item associated with the secondary location. A graphical user interface is generated with graphical elements visually representing a first attribute of the primary location, the determined secondary attribute, and computer commands to invoke a workflow to deliver the item to at least one of the primary location and the secondary location.
