FIG. 3 is a diagram illustrating a method of operating the server device 100 for providing information according to various embodiments.

According to FIG. 3, the server device 100 sends order setting information for the first group order to the first user based on the first input of the first user who selected the group order for processing orders for the store in batches. Provided to (301), based on the order setting information, information about a plurality of orders paid in the store by a plurality of users invited by the first user for the first group order and information entered by the first user in the store Order acquisition information of the first group order containing information about the first order is confirmed (303), and when first payment information for the first user to pay for the first order is confirmed in response to the order acquisition information, the first order acquisition information is confirmed (303). Order reception information including group 1 orders can be provided to the store (305).

According to FIG. 3, the operation of the server device 100 providing information about recommended items may be performed for a service provided by the server device 100 or a service related to the server device 100, and the service may be performed on the service. It may correspond to a service for brokering item pickup orders and item delivery orders between multiple users using various stores and services located in . Additionally, items subject to pickup and delivery orders may be food items, and food items have the same meaning as various other terms that refer to food-related items, such as dish, food menu, or meal. It can be understood. A store linked to a service related to the server device 100 may correspond to a store that sells and delivers food items, and has the same meaning as various other terms indicating places where food items can be sold, such as stores, shops, and restaurants. It can be understood as having.

Through the service for brokering item pickup orders and item delivery orders provided by the server device 100, multiple users can enter an order request to order an item through the store within the service, and the store provides the service. You can check the order request entered through and prepare the ordered item in response. If the store supports both pick-up orders and delivery orders, for pick-up orders in which the user visits the store directly to pack or pick-up the items, depending on the user's choice, the store will provide the order once the ordered item is ready. In this service, information about whether the item is ready is entered, and then the user can visit the store and pick up the item. Alternatively, for a delivery order in which a delivery person delivers the item to the user's address according to the user's selection, the store enters delivery request information in the service when the ordered item is ready, and when the delivery request information is confirmed, the delivery person You can visit the store, pick up items, and have them delivered to your address information.

According to various embodiments, in operation 301, the server device 100 sets an order for a first group order based on a first input of a first user who selects a group order for batch processing orders for the store. Information may be provided to the first user.

For example, a first user who is provided with order setting information for a first group order through an input for selecting a group order may be classified as a leader user of the first group order, and may be classified as a leader user of the first group order, and may be classified as a leader user of the first group order in addition to the leader user. Users participating in orders can be classified as general participants. That is, users participating in a group order can be classified into a leader user who creates a new group order and a general participant who is invited to the group order by the leader user.

For example, the order setting information provided by the server device 100 to the first user according to operation 301 includes information about the store and information for the first user to invite other users to place the first group order. , information about the participation deadline of the other user for the first group order, and information about the delivery address for the first group order. That is, the order setting information that the server device 100 provides to the first user according to operation 301 may include various information necessary for the leader user to create a group order.

At this time, among the order setting information, the information for the first user to invite other users to order the first group includes information about a link set to enable the other users to participate in the first group order. It can be included. The leader user can send or forward a link set to participate in the first group order through messenger or SNS to other users, and other users can access the service through the link and participate in the first group order.

Additionally, this invitation function by link can be set to be used not only by the leader user but also by general participants. For example, a specific general participant who received a link from a leader user and participated in a group order may forward the link received to another user, and the other user may place a group order through the link received from the specific general participant. You can participate. In this way, when a user who receives a link from a general participant rather than a leader user participates in a group order, information about the user can be provided to the leader user.

For example, the first input of the first user selecting a group order for processing orders for a store in batches may be obtained through the store details page of the corresponding store. The store detail page of the store may include a function for creating a group order so that multiple users can enter multiple orders, in addition to the function for individual users to enter their own single order, and the first input of the first user. may correspond to the leader user's input to the function that creates a group order.

According to various embodiments, in operation 303, the server device 100 determines, based on order setting information, a plurality of orders paid in the store by a plurality of users invited by the first user for the first group order. You can check order acquisition information for the first group order, which includes information about the first order entered by the first user in the store.

For example, a plurality of users invited by the first user for the first group order may correspond to general participants who are invited by the leader user and participate in the first group order.

For example, the general participant's order included in the order acquisition information of the first group order may be set to be included in the order acquisition information of the first group order based on the fact that the general participant paid for his or her order. That is, for any second order included in a plurality of orders, the information about the second order is confirmed by the second payment information that the second user corresponding to the second order paid for the second order. Based on this, it may be included in the order acquisition information. On the other hand, unlike general participants, the leader user who created the first group order participates in the first group order by simply entering his or her order, and after other general participants participate in the first group order, he or she finally places the first group order. Upon confirmation, the leader user can pay for his or her order.

For example, if a general participant pays his or her order and the order acquisition information of the first group order includes the order of the general participant, the general participant's order information, such as the general participant's information and the information of the general participant's order, is included in the order acquisition information of the first group order. Information about participation points may be provided to the leader user. That is, for any second order included in a plurality of orders, if information about the second order is included in order acquisition information for the first group order, the second user corresponding to the second order is the second order. Information about participation in group 1 ordering may be provided to the first user, who is the leader user.

For example, the order acquisition information confirmed by the server device 100 according to operation 303 includes group order management information for managing orders included in the first group order, and the group order management information includes the leader Information about the first user as a user, information about the store, information for inviting other users to place the first group order, information about a delivery address for the first group order, and the first group order. May include group order identification information for. At this time, such group order management information may be set as information in the form of a table containing various information for group order management.

For example, the group order management information included in the order acquisition information confirmed by the server device 100 according to operation 303 includes common identification information for each order included in the first group order, and the first group order. May include individual order management information for each order included in the . At this time, such individual order management information can be set as information in the form of a table containing various information for managing individual orders.

For example, individual order management information for each order included in a first group order may include common identification information included in the group order management information, individual order identification information for each order, and items included in each order. And it may include information on the order quantity, and payment information for paying for each order. In other words, information about each order paid by a general participant included in a group order or information about an order entered by a leader user can be managed individually.

Figure 4 is a diagram showing an example of group order management information and individual order management information set in table form.

In Figure 4, when the leader user creates a group order, group order management information for the group order may be set in a table form as shown in 401. The group order management information in 401 includes information about the leader user who created the group order (memberSrl), information about the store where the group order will be received (storeId), and information about the link to invite other users to place the group order ( link), information about the delivery address for a group order (orderDestinationId), group order identification information to identify the group order (GroupOrderId), common identification information for each order included in the group order (uniqueOrderId), and the first group Individual order management information 405 for each order included in the order may be included.

Group orders obtained on services related to the server device 100 are identified through each group order identification information (GroupOrderId) and can be managed in storage corresponding to the service through a plurality of identification information included in the group order identification information. There is (403). Additionally, information about the delivery address for group orders (orderDestinationId) may be set to include identification information that can identify the delivery address that the leader user enters for group orders (405).

Additionally, when a leader user creates a group order, individual order management information for each order included in the group order may be set in a table format as shown in 407. 407's individual order management information includes individual order identification information (orderId) for each order included in the group order, common identification information commonly set for each order (parentUniqueOrderId), items included in each order, and order quantity. Information 409, payment information 411 for paying for each order, and information about the delivery address for group orders (orderDestinationId) may be included.

For each order included in a group order obtained on a service related to the server device 100, information 409 related to the order, such as the items included in each order and the order quantity, and payment such as the payment price and payment method of each order Information 411 related to may also be set in table form and included in individual order management information.

For example, the first individual order identification information for the first order included in the individual order management information for the first order of the first user who is the leader user may be set to be the same as the common identification information for the group order. . Additionally, individual order identification information for other orders included in individual order management information for orders other than the first order may be set differently from common identification information for group orders.

Through the setting of such identification information, the operation of the server device 100 to provide order reception information for the store according to the payment of the first user, the leader user, is common to the first individual order identification information of the first order. It can be set to be performed in response to points where identification information is the same. In other words, when the order of a general participant who is not a leader user is paid, the general participant's order is set to be included in the group order. This is based on the fact that the individual order identification information of the general participant's order is different from the common identification information for the group order. It could be. On the other hand, when the leader user's order is paid, order reception information for the group order is set to be provided to the store, and this may be based on the fact that the individual order identification information for the leader user's order is the same as the common identification information for the group order. .

Figure 5 is a diagram illustrating an example of a group order being processed based on individual order identification information for each order included in the group order.

In Figure 5, when the leader user creates a group order in the store, the leader user can enter his or her order. At this time, the individual order identification information (uniqueOrderId) included in the individual order management information for the leader user's order is the group order. It can be set to the same value as the common identification information for ordering (parentUniqueOrderId) (501).

In addition, general participants who are invited to the group order by the leader user participate in the group order by entering their own order and making payment. At this time, individual order identification information included in the individual order management information for each participant's order ( uniqueOrderId) may be set to a different value from the common identification information (parentUniqueOrderId) for group order (503).

After the participation of general participants in the group order is completed, the leader user pays for his or her order, and the individual order identification information of the paid leader user's order is confirmed to be the same value as the common identification information for the group order. Thus, order reception information for group orders can be provided to the store (505).

For example, individual order management information for each order included in the first group of orders may include status information related to the order cancellation status of each order. In other words, if a general participant participates in the first group order by paying for his or her order and then cancels his or her order again, he or she is excluded from the first group order. In order to manage this participation status, each order of the general participant is registered. Status information related to order cancellation status may be included in individual order management information for each order.

For example, before paying for the first order of the first user who is the leader user, that is, before the first payment information is confirmed, a third user corresponding to the third order included in the plurality of orders may place the third order. When canceling, the server device 100 checks payment cancellation information for canceling the third order, and based on the payment cancellation information, information indicating that the third order is canceled is included in the status information of the third order. You can set it to be.
