Hereinafter, with reference to the accompanying Figures 4 and 5, it will be described in detail a company member management method using a communication network and a product information search site operation method using the same according to an embodiment of the present invention.

4, access to a server computer may be divided into administrators, corporate members, and general users.

The manager S200 logs in to the server computer through the computer communication network shown in FIG. 1 (S210). At this time, the server computer authenticates the logged in administrator and grants the administrator authority (S220). Here, as the administrator authority, the product information is registered and managed, and product information that is not uploaded to the Internet site after being input from the corporate member, namely, provisional product information is managed. In addition, corporate member registration and management, category registration and management is performed. In addition, it registers and manages advertisements that are operated as a way to increase the profitability of product information services and manages bulletin boards.

The corporate member S300 logs in to the server computer through the computer communication network shown in FIG. 1 (S310). At this time, the server computer authenticates the logged-in corporate member into a master and a manager (S320), and grants a master authority (S330) or a manager authority based on the separated information (S340).

Here, the master registers and manages products registered with a master ID, provisional registration confirmation of products, manager ID management, and registration and management of products registered with a manager ID. The manager performs registration and management of the product registered by the manager and confirms the provisional product.

5 is a flowchart showing a more detailed flow of product registration. Referring to FIG. 5, the corporate member logs in through a master ID or a manager ID (S410) and performs product management (S420). First, it is determined whether product registration is performed under a category into which product information will be included among categories organized in a lower division order from an upper division (S430). If the product registration is selected under the category, the product registration step is performed (S440). If it is not in the corresponding category, after moving to the corresponding category (S435), product registration is performed (S440). In this case, when the product registration category is not provided, the master and the manager may generate a category by requesting an administrator through a bulletin board DB, an e-mail, or the like.

The product registration step (S440) is a step of registering the product information input through the master and the manager, that is, the temporarily registered product information in the current category position. Here, it is determined whether the nature of the product is suitable for category classification, and the product is registered for the appropriate category. Here, the quantity of products registered in the lowest category among the categories is preferably limited within a predetermined range for each company. In this case, the step prior to registering the product information includes the step of limiting the number of products of the same kind (S450). That is, when the number of the same kind of products is less than the set number, the product information is input (S470). Otherwise, an error message indicating that the number of products exceeds the limited number of products is output (S455). Here, the product information input in the product information input step (S470) includes product information including product specifications, picture information, a URL to be linked, and a contact point (S475). On the other hand, it is preferable to include a company name input step (S460) before the product information input step (S470). Company name input step (S460) is to enable the logged-in master and manager to register and change the product information to be provided using the same company name, it is preferably automatically entered based on the company member DB. Subsequently, it is checked whether the product information is correctly input, that is, whether or not provisional registration (S480). After that, by logging out (S490), the flow for registration of product information is completed. As such, the provisionally registered product information is serviced through the Internet by the administrator after confirming whether the characteristics and category classification of the provisional registration product are suitable and uploading it to the Internet site. That is, the serviced product information is displayed on the screen when the user selects a category and / or a product, the sub-category and / or information of the corresponding product. Here, when the detailed description of the searched product is displayed on the screen, the information including the inputted Internet address and contact information of the company is displayed together so that other information of the corporate member can be notified through the product information search site. desirable.

According to the present invention configured as described above, a server computer administrator does not provide a service including a product information providing service provided through an Internet site, but can be co-operated with a company member to provide a large amount of product information at a low cost. Can be delivered quickly.

In addition, by using the dual corporate member system by the master ID and the manager ID it is possible to proactively cope with the service range, for example, the product range to be provided. That is, even if the number and type of products provided by a company member is large, there are advantages that a number of managers can share product management tasks. In addition, the master can manage multiple managers and all corporate members can use the same company name to prevent theft of company names by third parties.
