Description

Physical node tracking-based whole-sea-transport-box cross-border e-commerce logistics order management system

Technical Field

The invention relates to the technical field of networks, in particular to a whole marine transport box cross-border e-commerce logistics order management system based on physical node tracking.

Background

The cross-border logistics refers to a plan for effectively flowing and storing real objects and information by taking two sides of a customs pass as endpoints, and the implementation, control and management processes of the plan. The concept and the characteristics of cross-border e-commerce and logistics are combined, and the cross-border e-commerce and logistics are defined as logistics activities crossing different countries or regions, wherein in the e-commerce environment, articles flow from the cross-border e-commerce industry to cross-border consumers by means of advanced technologies such as internet, big data, informatization, computer and the like.

In the container shipping business, the shipping business meeting the four one conditions of one container, one exporter, one consignee and one destination port is changed into the shipping whole-box transportation.

Taking the whole shipping box business of the Zhongmei line as an example, the whole shipping box business is divided into three sections from the dimension of the geographic position, namely, an internal section, a port-to-port section and an overseas section. One sea transportation order starts from domestic goods collection to a domestic port, drifts through the sea to reach an American port, American related personnel carry containers to a designated warehouse, the transportation distance is long in the whole process, the transportation time is long, the sea transportation order faces China and American customs, clearance and inspection activities such as complex inspection and quarantine and the like need to be carried out, and the risks such as damage and loss of goods are relatively high. In the whole process, different physical nodes need different information, provide different documents, generate different expenses, need to be connected with different service providers, and even have the problems of accident responsibility division and the like. For customers, deeply, the customers need to know information such as the quantity of products, the logistics state of the products and the like, manage the inventory of the customers and make production or purchase plans of the customers. For the generation, they need to know the current normal order data, abnormal order data, cost situation and other information. For the service provider, deep, they need to know the current and historical order data, abnormal order data, and the information of expense details.

Disclosure of Invention

In order to solve the problems, a client places orders according to the requirements and clearly knows the logistics situation of the order, elements such as documents, expenses, commodity information and the like are provided or obtained in time on the basis of logistics nodes, and if an accident happens, early warning information can be obtained to respond quickly, so that the loss caused by the accident is minimized as much as possible. Meanwhile, cross-border logistics service providers can record and check all order information, and the operation customer service personnel can work cooperatively to process customer orders efficiently. The invention provides a whole marine transport box cross-border e-commerce logistics order management system based on physical node tracking, which is shown in figure 1. The system mainly has two roles of facing users, namely a client and a logistics service provider. The customer places an order through the order management system, after receiving the order, the logistics service provider performs the actions of picking up goods, transporting, delivering the warehouse and the like until the delivery is finished, and sends a transportation voucher (POD) to the customer, so that the order is finished. The whole process is completely online, transparent, timely and traceable.

In order to solve the technical problems, the technical scheme provided by the invention is as follows: the whole shipping container cross-border electronic commerce logistics order management system based on physical node tracking comprises: the system comprises a physical node tracking module, an information flow module, a charge flow module, a document flow module, a notification module and an early warning module. The information flow module, the expense flow module, the notification module and the early warning module all change along with the update of the physical nodes of the container. The order is placed from a client in the system, and the commodity is delivered to a formulated warehouse by a logistics service provider to complete an order, and the following steps are mainly carried out:

step 101: and the customer places an order on the platform and provides corresponding order information. And the logistics service provider obtains the new order notice and performs order receiving processing. After receiving the order, the system informs the customer of providing information such as required documents according to the setting of the logistics service provider, and generates the cost of the stage according to the price card. The logistics service provider can set some early warning boundary conditions according to business requirements. The early warning module runs through the whole order life cycle, once the boundary condition of early warning is met, an early warning mechanism is started until a client or a logistics service provider performs corresponding processing, so that the order is out of the early warning condition, and early warning is released. The early warning belongs to the special condition of order management, and is not marked in the following steps. After receiving the customer order, the logistics service provider lifts the empty cabinet to pack the box, then re-boxes enter the port and waits for the ship to be driven;

step 102: after the ship is launched, the container leaves the inland section and enters the harbor-to-harbor section, similar to step 101, in which the corresponding cost of the section is generated and the relevant documents and information are needed. In the process, the system reminds the client or the logistics service provider of relevant operation in the form of notification. It should be noted that some ships may have a transfer condition in the middle, which affects the shipping time and further affects the arrangement of the rear section;

step 103: after the ship arrives at the destination port, if the destination warehouse is inland port, the container needs to be transported to the destination port warehouse by train, and if it is base port, two nodes of getting on train and getting off train do not appear in the physical nodes. After the container is sent to the destination port warehouse, the logistics facilitator sends the POD to the customer and the entire order is completed. The process is the same as the steps 101 and 102, and documents and fees belonging to the interval are generated and are reminded in a notification mode.

Compared with the prior art, the invention has the beneficial effects that:

the scheme is based on container physical node tracking, the whole life cycle of the marine whole container order is served, the customer and the logistics service provider can conveniently manage the order, all the orders are visible, controllable, timely responded, and clearly subjected to responsibility division, and internal personnel division operation is reasonably arranged.

The realization foundation of the scheme is physical node tracking of the container. The ship company, the port and the train company provide tracking service, and the tracking service provides possibility for acquiring physical node tracking of the container. The container node of this scheme tracks and tracks following node: lifting the cabinet, loading the heavy box into port, opening the ship, transferring, arriving at port, getting on train, getting off train, lifting the cabinet and delivering the cabinet. It should be noted that the physical interval is divided into an internal segment, a port-to-port segment and an overseas segment by taking two nodes of ship opening and port arrival as demarcation points. The customer can distribute the business to different logistics service providers according to the three intervals. The logistics service provider can also choose to do only some of the interval services and design different price cards.

The scheme comprises an information flow module. The containers are in different physical nodes, and the logistics service provider needs the client to provide the specified information and synchronizes the specified information to the client. In the system, information of each order is stored, and the client and the logistics service provider can inquire the information according to the order data. If the order of the customer is divided into a plurality of service providers according to the physical interval of the container, irrelevant information flow among the service providers can be isolated, relevant information can be efficiently transmitted, and the client can check complete order information.

The scheme comprises a charge flow module. The charge flow module is generated according to the price card set by the logistics service provider. After the customer selects the designated service, the system can calculate the cost based on the price card. Similar to the information flow module, the customer order will obtain all the cost details in the whole order process, and the logistics service provider can only see the cost details in the served section.

The present solution includes a document flow module. Different container physical node customers need to provide different documents throughout the life cycle of the marine whole-container order, and the system will also generate different documents to send to the customers. If the system is not used, the staff of the client and the staff of the logistics service provider need to store and arrange the documents in a computer. The document arrangement process is cumbersome, inefficient and prone to errors. The system stores the document in the cloud, and the document is associated with the order through a specific rule, so that trivial work of related personnel is greatly facilitated, and the working efficiency is improved.

The scheme comprises a notification module. One of the characteristics of a marine whole-box order is that its life cycle is relatively long. In the long transportation process, some operations of the client and the logistics service provider or the concerned state change of the client and the logistics service provider can be automatically acquired through the notification module of the system.

This scheme contains the early warning module. The second characteristic of the marine whole-box order is that the transportation process is complex. The problems of clearance examination between a departure country and a destination country, whether transfer exists in the port arrival process, whether a destination port warehouse reserves reasonable time and the like are frequently encountered. Under the condition that the process is different from the expected process and even the subsequent operation is influenced, the system can trigger an early warning mechanism according to the set early warning boundary condition and send early warning information to a specified account.
