  2. Description of the Related Art In recent years, for home delivery services from homes and companies, there is a service that can confirm information such as a delivery period and a transportation date and specify a transportation date and time using a system unique to a trader. In addition, there are many private post office box systems that do not leak personal information of senders and receivers of transported goods and mechanisms for delivering transported goods efficiently and reliably.

In the current logistics industry, the status of distribution can be inquired by the sender / receiver, and it is not possible to confirm the shipment or refuse to accept the shipment for an unspecified shipment for which you do not know when it will be conveyed. For this reason, it is the present situation that a social problem is caused by a unilaterally sent article due to personal information leakage or the like. In addition, certain types of transported items such as direct mail and mail order catalogs may be annoying to the recipient. There is a mechanism for refusing reception in electronic information contents, electronic mails, etc., and it is desirable to reject the reception of physical transported goods before receiving them.
JP-A-2004-287726 discloses a mail receiving agent system as a background art of the present invention, and will be described below.

  The postal receipt agent system of the present invention provides registered members with a postal receipt address, receives postal items sent to registered members on their behalf, and receives postal items delivered to members. It is a substitution system. The contents are a member registration screen in response to a member registration request from a member terminal of a user who wishes to receive mail, accepting the member name, address and e-mail address on the member registration screen, And a member management means for registering in the member management database, and a mail delivery condition setting screen is transmitted to the member terminal, and the delivery condition data of the mail delivered to the postal receipt address for the receiving agency It is characterized by delivery condition management means for receiving and managing in a delivery condition database. Also, reading means for reading the sender's address name, post office box number and recipient name written on the front and back of the mail delivered to the mail receipt address, and the member's delivery condition data corresponding to the recipient name read Is generated from the delivery condition database, a WWW page that only the member can refer to is generated, the sender's address name, post office box number, and recipient name read by the reading means are posted, and the WWW page is sent to the member. It is characterized by receiving mail WWW page generation means for notifying the URL of the received mail by e-mail. Then, from the member terminal of the member who accessed the WWW page, the next instruction for the mail addressed to the member posted on the WWW page is received, and it is determined whether or not the intervention of the operator who performs the receiving agency is necessary. And receiving mail instruction receiving means for notifying the operator terminal if operator intervention is necessary, and if not required, giving a delivery instruction for the mail received on behalf of the delivery condition data. Further, the delivery condition data is registered to be discarded or rejected without delivery to a member.

JP 2004-287726 A

The mail receiving agent system disclosed in Patent Document 1 is a mail receiving refusal for delivery between an agent receiving address configured as described above and an actual address. However, the post office box is a proxy receiving address, and there is a problem that it can only be applied in the present situation where there are a large number of transported goods to which only an actual address that is not a post office box is distributed.
In addition, the determination material for the user is only the name of the conveyance source, and there is a problem that it is difficult to make an appropriate determination when the user determines whether to reject the conveyance.

  Further, according to the conventional technique, it is necessary to notify a carrier (for example, a post office or a shipping company) of a conveyance condition that clearly indicates rejection of receipt of a conveyance from a specific conveyance source in advance. Here, when notifying the delivery conditions, experience / knowledge regarding the shipping source is necessary, but it is difficult for the recipient who does not have such judgment materials to notify the appropriate delivery conditions. In addition, even if the transport conditions related to the transported goods from a specific transport source have been notified in advance, if the transport source name or address is changed, the transport source is substantially the same person. Regardless, the transported object to be rejected is transported to the recipient and the transport conditions are effectively invalidated.

  Therefore, it is necessary to take a defense measure against a transported object such as a mailed item or a delivered item from an unknown source due to leakage of personal information because it is possible to search the transported state of the transported item. Also, as an unusual case, it is desirable to have a mechanism that enables tracking surveys of specific transported items such as suspicious parcels (mailing bombs), specification of the transport source and transport destination, and efficient search.

  The present invention has been made in order to solve the above-mentioned problems, and provides information on a transportation source for postal items and parcels, and is desired to be received by a personal computer or a mobile phone using a communication line such as the Internet. It is an object of the present invention to provide a system capable of rejecting the receipt of a non-conveyed item before receipt. It is another object of the present invention to provide a system capable of rejecting in advance a transported object that has been sent before the transport source is sent to the transport destination.

[1] The transported object system of the present invention inquires a transport station apparatus that collects information related to the transported object, a transported object management apparatus that acquires and holds information related to the transported object from the transport station apparatus, and the transported object management apparatus. A transport system comprising a user device that obtains information related to a transported object, wherein the transport station device transports transport identification information attached to the transport source, transport destination, and transported object taken out of the transported object. Including a transport information transmitting means for transmitting transport information to the transport management apparatus, and a transport information management means for recording user registration information, a transport source, transport destination and transport received from the transport station apparatus. Conveyed object information storage means for recording the conveyed object information of the object identification information, and an address reader for reading out address information for transmitting information from the registered information storage means to the user device based on the received conveying destination. Information indicating that at least the transported object is to be conveyed with respect to the read address, and reject setting access destination information for specifying the access destination to the transport object management device for rejecting the receiving or sending of the transported object Transported object refusal setting guide notification transmitting means for transmitting, receiving / rejecting information receiving means for receiving information indicating that the transported object to be transported is rejected or received from the user device, and transported object information storing means Receiving / rejecting information associating means for associating information indicating rejection with a delivery rejected by a user, and receiving from a delivery information and a delivery destination that has been shipped in the past by a target delivery source from a delivery information storage means, or A receipt rejection rate calculation means for obtaining a rejection rate from a delivery object refused to be sent, and a request from the user device to be sent to a user who uses the user device. Information on the fact that the user device has the requested rejection rate, the transport object to be transported, and the rejection Using the rejection setting access destination information to receive the delivery rejection setting guidance notification receiving means for receiving the setting access destination information, the delivery management device is accessed, and the setting for receiving or sending rejection specifying the delivery from the user is accepted. A reception rejection rate calculating means that includes a transmission / rejection rejection setting reception means and a rejection setting transported object information transmission means for transmitting information indicating rejection of receipt specifying a transported object to the transported object management device. The receipt refusal rate is transmitted together with information indicating that the conveyed product refusal setting guide notification transmission means has a conveyed product and refusal setting access destination information. Here, user computers and mobile terminals are examples. The carrier station apparatus is an example of a carrier station computer. Furthermore, the conveyed product management computer is an example of a conveyed product management computer.

  As a result, the user can determine whether to reject the delivery of the transported object based on the transported object information sent from the transported object management apparatus, and can set the rejection of the transported object, so that the transported object is transported to the transport destination. It is possible to refuse the transmission / reception of a transported object that is not desired to be received before being received. In addition, since it is possible to make a decision to reject the delivery of the transported goods based on the calculated receipt refusal rate, based on the transport conditions that the user has refused to receive from the same shipping source for other users It is possible to control whether or not to actually transport the transported goods, even if the user does not have experience and knowledge about the transport source, send the transported goods that do not want to be received in advance Can be avoided. In addition, it is assumed that the status information of the transported object is included in the transported object information, and the transported object refusal setting guide notification transmission means transmits the status information of the transported object to the user. The conveyance status can also be confirmed. Also, when there is a custom of sending things to each other like a New Year's card, it is conveyed before receiving the New Year's card by notifying the person's name, address, etc. of the other party who has not issued the New Year's card You can also check the name and address of the New Year's card and reply quickly.

[2] In the transported material system of the present invention, the transported material management device transmits information specifying a transported material that has been received or refused to be sent to the transport station device, and received or received by the transport station device as necessary. Information for specifying a transported object refused to be sent is displayed.
As a result, since the information on the transported object that is set to be rejected is sent from the transported object management device to the transporting apparatus, the transporter of the transport station that transports the transported object may know that the transported object is refused to be received or sent. it can.

[3] The transported material system of the present invention includes a means for determining whether or not the transport rejection management device summed up for each transport source is higher than a predetermined threshold as necessary. Only when it is determined that the rate is higher than the predetermined threshold value, the conveyed product refusal setting guidance notification transmission means notifies the guidance.
In this way, it is determined whether or not the receipt refusal rate tabulated for each transport source is higher than a predetermined threshold, and only when it is determined that the reception refusal rate is higher than the predetermined threshold, the transport object refusal setting guidance is notified. In a situation where a transported object that does not want to be rejected is being transported, it is possible to prevent a transported object reject setting guide notification that is highly likely to be unnecessary from being transmitted.

[4] In the transported object system according to the present invention, the transported object management apparatus, based on the transported object feature information of the transported object to be transported and the transported object feature information having a high receipt rejection rate, as necessary. And a means for determining whether or not the conveyed product should be conveyed. When it is determined that the conveyed product should not be conveyed, the conveyed object refusal setting guidance notification transmitting means notifies the guidance.
This allows, for example, comparing the transport object feature information of the transport source with a high receipt rejection rate with the transport object feature information of the transport object to be transported, and transporting the transport object when the correlation is high enough to be regarded as the same. In order to automatically determine that this should not be done and notify the user to that effect, even users who do not have experience and knowledge about the transport source will receive in advance the delivery that they do not wish to receive It becomes possible to prevent.

[5] The transport object management apparatus of the present invention stores transport source information for specifying a transport source of a transport object and a transmission destination address of the information related to the transport object to the transport source, and a transport destination for specifying the transport destination of the transport object. send a storage means for storing information and a destination address to the conveying destination of the information about the conveyed object, the query information query rejecting delivery of the conveyed object to a destination address to the stored transfer origin to the storage means, the transport Accepts input of information indicating rejection of delivery of the delivery by the delivery source specified by the delivery source information, sending means for inquiring rejection of receipt of delivery to the destination address to the destination , and delivery destination a receiving unit for accepting an input of information indicating the rejection of reception of the transfer material by the transfer destination specified by the information, when receiving an input of information indicating the rejection of delivery of the conveyed object at the reception means, stored in the memory means The Is stored in the storage means when the receiving means accepts the input of the information indicating the refusal of receiving the transported object. The association means for further storing information indicating refusal of receipt of the received transported object in association with the transport source information, and the storage means, with reference to the storage means, information indicating refusal of receipt among the transport source information about the transport source The receipt refusal rate calculation means for obtaining the ratio of the transport source information stored in association as the receipt refusal rate of the transported object from the transport source, and the transmission destination address of the transported object to the destination address of the transported object. And a second transmission means for transmitting information on the rejection rate .

  The transported object system according to the present invention is applied to a transported object, and the mechanism of the system will be described using an example of a mailed object among the transported objects. Therefore, the transported items include not only mail items but also courier services.

  FIG. 2 is a block configuration diagram of the user computer according to the first embodiment of the present invention. The member registration request processing means 21 has the following two types of member registration methods. One method is registration processing by a Web screen input operation from the user computer 1 or the portable terminal 2. In addition, the member registration request is for member registration information, which is user registration information of “zip code”, “address”, “name”, “E-mail address”, “phone number”, and “FAX number”. Must be entered. The other method is a registration process by applying to the mailing post office or mailing destination post office. That is, it is a FAX transmission / reception means 26 for users who do not use the Web function. Here, for example, it is possible to adopt a configuration in which the device of the FAX transmission / reception means 26 is connected to the PCI slot in the user computer 1. Further, a configuration in which the FAX transmission / reception means 27 is installed outside the casing of the user computer 1 and connected by USB may be employed. Then, the member registration data transmission means 22 sends the inputted “zip code”, “address”, “name”, “E-mail address”, “phone number”, “FAX number” to the goods in the mail monitoring center. It transmits to the management computer 4. As a result, the user computer 1 or the portable terminal 2 acquires “member ID”, “password”, and “transmission / reception denial key”. The member-by-member mail list reception processing means 23, which is a delivery object rejection setting guide notice receiving means, mails the member-by-member mail list from the transport object management computer 4 of the mail monitoring center 3 by the portable terminal 2 or the FAX transmission / reception means 26. Receive. The received mail list for each member is displayed on the screen so that the user can view it. Here, the member-by-member mail list display includes, for example, a received list or a sent list. When the user browses from the user computer 1, a “member ID” and a “password” are required. The postal item list displays postal items as a list and displays the status type of the postal items. Here, the status types include, for example, “mailing source reception”, “mailing address reception”, “delivery completed”, “rejection rejection”, “transmission rejection”, “rejection impossible”, “post office stop”, and the like. The member-by-member mail transmission / reception refusal data transmission means 24, which is a transmission / reception rejection setting reception means, has a function of setting reception or transmission rejection from the mail list display screen. The user enters a “transmission / reception refusal key” on the mail list display screen. As a result, the receipt status change display for each IC tag is “reception refusal”, and the delivery status change display is “send rejection”. The member-specific pre-reception refusal setting unit 25, which is a refusal-conveyed article information transmission unit, performs registration processing of a mailing source that should be rejected in advance. The user inputs “rejected zip code”, “rejected address”, and “rejected name” to the user computer 1. Here, the refusal setting and the pre-rejection setting can be processed by the transport station computer 3 of the mailing post office or the mailing post office.

  FIG. 3 is a block diagram of the terminal carrier computer of the mailing source or mailing destination post office according to the first embodiment of the present invention. The mailing address and mailing source information reading processing means 31 of the mailing source post office comprise an automatic scanning processing means 32 and a mailing mail address / mailing source display recognition processing means 33, and the front surface 34, the back surface 35, the mailing material. Information on the image data 36 can be acquired. An IC tag for identifying a postal item is attached to a new postal item that has been postmarked by a postal clerk at the post office. Here, the IC tag is an example of a means for identifying a transported object including a postal matter, and the identification means includes attaching a barcode, attaching an invisible barcode, and the like. The information acquired by the transported object identification means is transported object identification information. The automatic scan processing means 32 automatically scans the mail piece. Next, the mail postal address / mailing source display recognition processing means 33 recognizes the mailing address / mailing source display of the mail. Next, “mailing postal code”, “mailing address”, “mailing name” displayed on the front surface 34 of the mail piece, and “mailing postal code”, “mailing address” displayed on the back surface 35, The “mail source name” and the mail image data 36 are read. If the "Postal Postal Code", "Mailing Address", "Mailing Name", "Mailing Postal Code", "Mailing Address", "Mailing Name" are displayed on the same side, At least one display surface of the front surface 34 or the back surface 35 is read. Next, a mail status information change process 37 performs a mail status information change process as necessary. Next, the read data IC tag writing processing means 38 writes “IC tag unique ID”, “front surface 34”, “back surface 35”, “postal matter image data”, and “IC tag status information” to the IC tag. Then, the postal matter IC tag data transmission processing means 39 as the transported object information transmitting means transmits the IC tag writing information to the transported object management computer 4 from the transport station computer 3.

  In the postal address post office, the IC tag-added postal matter data acquisition processing unit 310 includes an IC tag data acquisition processing unit 311 for postal items with IC tag and a postal rejection confirmation processing unit 312 for postal items with IC tag. The IC tag data acquisition processing unit 311 of the mail item with the IC tag acquires the IC tag information of the mail item already attached. Then, the mail rejection confirmation processing unit 312 for the mail with IC tag confirms whether the mail corresponds to “reception refusal”, “delivery refusal”, “post office stop”, or the like. Note that “post office stop” is an option that assumes a case where the user cannot receive the mail due to a business trip overseas. Then, a mail status information change process 37 performs a mail status information change process as necessary. For example, “delivery addressee acceptance” in the case of delivery, “rejection rejection”, “rejection of delivery”, “post office stop”, etc. are included in cases other than delivery. In addition, when the IC tag is collected and data is acquired after completion of transporting the mail, “delivery is completed”. Hereinafter, the read data IC tag writing processing means 38 and the postal matter IC tag data transmission processing means 39 are the same as described above.

  FIG. 4 is a block diagram of the transported material management computer of the mail monitoring center according to the first embodiment of the present invention. The transported object management computer 4 includes a member data registration processing unit 41 and a postal matter management processing unit 47. The member authentication processing means 42 in the member data registration processing unit 41 performs authentication using a password or the like transmitted from the user computer 1. The authenticated information is sent to the member identification processing means 43. Member identification processing means 43 identifies each member corresponding to the user ID. The new member registration processing means 44 registers new member registration information such as “member zip code”, “member address”, “member name” transmitted from the user computer 1. A member database 45 serving as registration information storage means stores existing member registration information and new member information. Member ID / password / postal mail rejection key issuing processing means 46 issues a “member ID”, “password”, and “postal mail rejection key” to a new member or a member whose registration information has been changed.

  Further, the postal matter IC tag data reception processing means 48 in the postal matter management processing unit 47 receives postal matter IC tag data which is transported matter information transmitted from the postal post office or postal destination post office. The mail transmission / reception refusal setting permission / inhibition control processing unit 49 determines whether the mail written in the mail IC tag data is mailable. Specifically, it is determined whether or not “non-rejectable” such as “registered mail” is set. The postal matter new data registration processing means 410 registers the information of the new postal matter that has arrived at the post office. The postal matter status change processing means 411 changes the contents of the postal matter management database 412 based on the status of the postal matter that has arrived at the mailing source post office or the mailing destination post office. Specifically, “reception refusal”, “transmission refusal”, “rejection impossible”, “post office stop”, and the like. A postal matter management database 412 which is a conveyed product information storage means records postal matter information. The backup / restore processing means 413 backs up and restores the mail management database. Further, the backup database 414 records backup data. The mail member ID result refusal rate calculation processing means 415 calculates the member ID result refusal rate based on the “member ID” of the member database 45 and the mail information stored in the mail management database 412. Here, the member ID performance refusal rate is an individual refusal ratio by the mailing address from the past refusal count for each mailing address. Note that the member ID performance refusal rate can be obtained by dividing the past number of refusals for each mailing destination and mailing source by the number of past mailings for each mailing address and mailing source. The postal matter general refusal rate calculation processing means 416, which is a receipt refusal rate calculating means, is also based on the member registration information in the member database 45 and the postal matter information stored in the postal matter management database 412. Calculate the rate. Here, the general refusal rate for each mail item is the refusal ratio of the mailing source from the number of times of refusal based on the past refusal record data for the mailing source. The general refusal rate information is provided as a judgment material when the mailing destination does not have information (knowledge or refusal experience) regarding the mailing source. In general, mailers who send mail that falls under the nuisance are to change the address or name, even if the mailers are the same, as a measure to prevent the general rejection rate from increasing. May come. Therefore, there are cases where the general refusal rate cannot be used as an absolute condition for refusal of receipt, so it is provided as a material for judging whether the mailing address should be received. The mail data list creation processing means 417 for each member, which is a means for associating the sending and receiving refusal information, creates the mail data list for each member based on the mail information acquired from the mailing address or mailing source and the result of the refusal rate calculation. create. The automatic mail transmission processing means 418, which is a conveyed object refusal setting guidance notification transmission means, transmits the member-by-member mail data list creation data to the user's portable terminal 2. Further, the automatic fax transmission processing means 419 transmits the creation data of the member mail data list to the FAX transmitting / receiving means 26 of the user. Here, address information for transmitting information from the registered information storage means to the user computer is read based on at least the transport destination received by the address reading means before transmission. The inquiry accepting means 420 accepts an inquiry from the user computer 1 or the portable terminal 2 that has received the member mail data list. As a result of receiving the inquiry from the user, the member-by-member mail list display processing means 421 displays the member-by-member mail list to which the send / receive rejection button is added. The member-by-member mail list 422 can be set to reject transmission / reception by the member-by-member mail list viewed on the user computer 1. A rejection setting receiving unit 423 which is a transmission / reception rejection information receiving unit receives the transmission / reception rejection setting transmitted by the user computer 1. Further, the advance receipt refusal setting receiving unit 424 receives the advance receipt refusal setting transmitted by the user computer 1. Information handled by the inquiry accepting means 420, the reject setting receiving means 423, and the prior receipt reject setting receiving means 424 is stored in the mail management database.

  FIG. 5 is a sequence diagram of the conveyed product system when there is no transmission / rejection rejection setting according to the first embodiment of the present invention. First, the mail is mailed from the mailing source to the mailing post office. Next, the postal source post office 2 scans information such as the postal code, address, and name of the mailed item. Next, the scanned information from the mail is written to the IC tag. Next, the information written in the IC tag is registered and transmitted for each IC tag from the post office to the mail monitoring center. Next, after the IC tag data is automatically distributed at the mail monitoring center, DB (date Base) registration is performed, and the general rejection rate and the rejection result rate by member ID are calculated. Next, a mail list browsing mail is transmitted from the mail monitoring center to the mail source and mail address. Next, based on the mail list browsing mail, the mail source or mail address refers to the mail monitoring center. Next, the mail monitoring center allows the mail list to be browsed to the mailing source or mailing destination inquired. Next, the mail is mailed from the post office to the post office. Next, a change in the status of the mail is sent from the post office to the mail monitoring center. Next, the mail is inquired by the ID tag from the post office to the mail monitoring center. Next, the mail list browsing mail is transmitted from the mail monitoring center to the mail source or mail address. Next, based on the mail list browsing mail, the mail source or mail address refers to the mail monitoring center. Next, the mail monitoring center allows the mail list to be browsed to the mailing source or mailing destination inquired. Next, the mail is mailed from the post office to the post office. Next, the mail is mailed from the post office to the mail address. Next, the IC tag of the mail is collected at the post office. Finally, a notification of completion of mail delivery is set from the post office to the mail monitoring center.

IC tag data of mail items managed by the mail monitoring center also has a function to retain for a certain period of time, and not only is used as refusal rate calculation data, but also data of what has been mailed in the past is retained by the data It can be referred to while it is being used.

  As a result, it is possible to carry out a follow-up survey of a specific transported object such as a suspicious parcel (mailing of a bombed material), specification of a transport source and transport destination, efficient search, and the like. Furthermore, it can be expected that the use of postal data by each individual or company will change from postal usage (information such as the total number of mailings used or mailing type) to the use of services with new added value (privileges based on the point system, etc.). .

(Second embodiment of the present invention)
FIG. 29 is a sequence diagram of the conveyed product system when there is a transmission / reception refusal setting according to the second embodiment of the present invention.
Since the basic processing flow is the same as that of the conveyed product system according to the first embodiment shown in FIG. 6, differences from the first embodiment will be described. First, after scanning an image of a zip code, an address, and a name at a mailing post office, the feature of the conveyed product is scanned as image data. Here, the characteristics of the postal matter include physical information or logical information such as handling classification of the transported item. Note that the physical information of the mail includes, for example, dimensions, weight, shape, pattern, color, and the like. In addition, logical information such as the handling classification of transported goods is, for example, registered mail, simple registered mail, content certification, express delivery, ordinary, parcel, cash registered mail, telegram, catalog, documents from public institutions, utility bills, “ Includes postal items that are marked as “confidential”. And, the acquisition of the image information of the feature of the conveyed object is a case where the height is manually input after measuring the dimension by the CCD camera photographing from the vertical and horizontal directions or measuring the plane dimension by the CCD camera photographing from the height direction. Or taking a three-dimensional image of a mailed item. Other known techniques can be applied to the technique for acquiring the characteristics of the conveyed product.

  Next, the mail management device 4 transmits mail for browsing the mail list when a specific condition is added. The case where a specific condition is added includes the case based on a receipt refusal rate, the case based on mail feature information including a mailing source or an image, and the like. The specific contents are explained below.

  First, in the case of a general rejection rate equal to or higher than a predetermined threshold set in advance or a rejection actual value or higher, a mail list browsing email is transmitted, and a conveyance rejection setting guide is notified. However, if there is a change in the name or address of the transport source even though the transport source is substantially the same person, the transported items that should be rejected are transported to the recipient, and the transport conditions are effectively invalidated. Will be. Accordingly, the transported object management device 4 calculates the correlation between the transported objects from the characteristics of the transported transported object having a high rejection rate and the characteristics of the transported object to be processed, and notifies the user of the transported object having a high correlation. The transported object management apparatus 4 acquires means for extracting a transport source having a high rejection rate, means for acquiring the characteristics of the transported object of the extracted transport source, and characteristics of the transported object for each transport source to be processed. Means, means for calculating the correlation of the characteristics of the conveyed product, means for determining whether the correlation is equal to or greater than a predetermined threshold, and means for notifying the conveyance destination of the conveyed product having the correlation equal to or greater than the predetermined threshold. The transport object targeted by the “means for acquiring the characteristics of the extracted transport object” is a transport object in which the transport source is determined among the transport objects to be processed in addition to the past transport object. You may include things.

FIG. 30 is a flow sheet for comparing a transported object for each transport source based on the transported object feature of the transported object system according to the second embodiment of the present invention. The transport object management computer 4 extracts a transport source having a high rejection rate (S1001). The transported object management computer 4 acquires the characteristics of the transported transport object extracted (S1002). The transported object management computer 4 acquires the characteristics of the transported object to be processed for each transport source (S1003). The transported object management computer 4 calculates the correlation of the characteristics of the transported object (S1004). Here, the correlation is processed for all combinations of the characteristics of the object to be processed and the characteristics of the object to be conveyed with a high rejection rate. In S1002 and S1003, the characteristics of the acquired transported object can be classified. Here, the classification contents include, for example, dimensions and weights that are physical information, catalogs that are logical information, direct mail, and the like. In S1003, the processing becomes complicated when the characteristics of the conveyance object to be processed for every conveyance source are acquired. Therefore, preprocessing for reducing the number of conveyance objects to be processed for each conveyance source can be performed based on the information of conveyance objects acquired in advance. Specifically, information on the transported material having a high rejection rate is read from the transported material management device 4. Here, the extracted information of the transportation source is, for example, (1) “zip code” or “part of address”, (2) “mailing address”, (3) “mailing date” or “mailing interval”, etc. Including “postal date”. The “postal date” includes, for example, a date on which transportation is expected one month after a transported object that is shipped at one-month intervals. And when the read information and the information of the conveyance object of the processing object for every conveyance source correspond, the conveyance object of the processing object for every coincidence conveyance source is made into a processing object. Further, when calculating the correlation, the transport object management device 4 correlates with the transport object to be processed for each transport source under the condition that the transport object information is attached to the transport object having a high rejection rate. Can also be confirmed. The conveyed product management computer 4 determines whether or not the correlation is equal to or greater than a predetermined threshold (S1005). Note that the threshold value can be changed by the user in accordance with past results. The process ends when it is not determined that the correlation is equal to or greater than the predetermined threshold. Here, when the threshold value is set in advance, the value is set. However, when the transport destination user can arbitrarily set the threshold value, the determination is made based on the threshold value set by the transport destination user. When it is determined that the correlation is equal to or greater than the predetermined threshold, the transported object management computer 4 notifies the transport destination of the transported object (S1006).
As a result, it is possible to more reliably support the receipt of an inappropriate transported object and prevent the receipt of an actual conveyance.

  Moreover, the conveyed product management apparatus 4 can compare not only the conveyed item for every conveyance source but also the conveyed item for every user. Then, the transported object management device 4 includes a means for extracting the transport source set to be rejected, a means for acquiring the characteristics of the transported object of the extracted transport source, and the characteristics of the transported object to be processed for each user. A means for obtaining, a means for calculating the correlation of the characteristics of the conveyed product, a means for determining whether the correlation is equal to or greater than a predetermined threshold, and a means for notifying the conveyance destination of a conveyed product having a correlation equal to or greater than the predetermined threshold.

  FIG. 31 is a flow sheet for transported object comparison for each user based on the transported object feature of the transported object system according to the second embodiment of the present invention. The transport object management computer 4 extracts a transport source for which rejection is set (S1101). The transported object management computer 4 acquires the characteristics of the transported transported object extracted (S1102). The transported object management computer 4 acquires the characteristics of the transported object to be processed by the corresponding user (1103). The transported object management computer 4 calculates the correlation of the characteristics of the transported object (S1104). Here, the correlation processes all the combinations of the characteristics of the conveyance object to be processed and the characteristics of the conveyance object having a high rejection rate. The conveyed product management computer 4 determines whether or not the correlation is equal to or greater than a predetermined threshold (S1105). Note that the threshold value can be changed by the user in accordance with past results. The process ends when it is not determined that the correlation is equal to or greater than the predetermined threshold. Here, when the threshold value is set in advance, the set numerical value is obtained. When it is determined that the correlation is equal to or greater than the predetermined threshold, the transported object management computer 4 notifies the transport destination of the transported object (S1106).

In S1102 and S1103, the features of the conveyed product can be classified as in FIG. Further, the processing using the conveyed product information in S1103 and S1104 is the same as that in FIG.
As a result, it is possible to ensure that the transported object from the transport source that registered the rejection setting is not received.
