Method for managing the information of imported and exported goods using computer network and its system}

The present invention relates to an import and export logistics information management method and management system, and more particularly, to an import and export logistics information management method and management system using a computer network.

The Internet consists of a huge number of computers and computer networks that interconnect these computers through communication protocols.

Interconnected computers exchange information using a variety of services, such as e-mail, gophers, and the World Wide Web. The world wide web allows a server computer system (eg a web server or website) to send graphical web pages of information to a remote client computer system.

Such a remote client computer system may display a web page of various screens received from a server computer.

On the other hand, with the recent rapid development of the Internet, various tasks that have been executed in the past and offline have been implemented online.

In particular, electronic commerce, in which the transaction is completed by delivery of goods and payment according to the electronic contract between the seller and the buyer online, is spotlighted as a major business to lead the Internet.

However, while such domestic e-commerce is being activated, there is a problem in that when the trade transaction is made between countries, the procedure is performed offline, resulting in a waste of time and money.

In other words, cargo transactions between countries are usually done through a letter of credit, so you must first open a letter of credit or confirm its arrival, import and export approvals and declarations, invoices or packing lists, etc. The procedure is considerably more complicated than domestic transactions, such as the need to collect bills of lading or airway bills to prove that cargo has been loaded by means of the means. As it is not done directly, but through a foreign exchange bank, it is not as simple as domestic transactions, and the procedure is so complicated that even experts in this field are not ready to prepare, documents to be issued are issued by various institutions, and the receipt is offline. Can be time consuming to prepare documents, Accordingly, logistics costs may increase. In addition, if one of the parties to a freight transaction is a business rather than an individual, several departments are involved in the freight transaction. Therefore, since each department prepares only the documents related to their duties among the documents related to the transaction, it is difficult to collectively prepare, manage, and verify the documents related to the transaction, and when one department is delayed, There was a problem that the risk of delaying the whole task remained.

In addition, the conventional cargo import and export system using our own computer was run in a closed frame environment that was used only by our employees scattered by shipping companies or carriers, and overall, the development, operation, and maintenance costs of the system increased. There was a problem that the productivity was reduced due to the provision of the service inefficient.

The technical problem to be achieved by the present invention is to solve the problems of the prior art described above, to achieve the integrated logistics system to minimize the time and expense required for import and export of cargo, customers and employees to perform their respective tasks in real time It is possible to process import and export related documents in a batch, and to increase work efficiency and provide uninterrupted service, and to contact customers and carriers in real time. It is to provide import and export logistics information management method and management system using computer network that can make the decision on import and export business quickly and accurately.
