Definitions
- the invention relates to a method for processing data via the Internet with at least two clients, a web server and at least one database server for storing and retrieving data, at least one first client storing data on the database server via the Internet using the web server, and at least a second one Client, preferably via the Internet using the web server, which retrieves data.
- EDI Electronic Data Interchange data
- a prerequisite for the use of electronic data transmission is agreement on the format of the data to be transmitted, since the recipient of the data must be able to interpret it correctly.
- Standardized formats, such as EDI are therefore used to design messages.
- EDI can therefore be defined as a media-free exchange of structured data, which is transferred using the use of electronic data transmission between the applications of the communication partners involved, for example a customer and a service provider.
- the logistics service providers often provide shippers with many different systems for order transmission and order processing.
- these systems are manual in nature, i.e. they include loading lists to be filled in manually, waybills, forwarding delivery notes etc.
- Automated systems are less widespread, in which the data is recorded in separate programs, the data being loaded onto diskettes and / or being transmitted by electronic data transmission, but only very rarely using EDI, and then being further processed. Accordingly, shippers have to handle different processing methods, IT programs, etc., depending on the individual logistics service providers used. This is extremely confusing and often leads to increased effort in order processing and thus to increased costs.
- the present invention is therefore based on the object of specifying a method for processing data over the Internet of the type mentioned at the outset, in which fast, simple and inexpensive information transmission to and from a service provider, in particular a logistics service provider, is possible.
- the above object is achieved by the method for processing data via the Internet with the features of patent claim 1.
- the method in question for processing data via the Internet is designed and developed in such a way that there is an association between the first client and the data stored on the database server and the second client retrieving the stored data, and that the data are assigned to the first Clients by selecting the second client by means of the first client.
- the selection of the second client by means of the first client could be limited to a set of second clients, in particular to a group of second clients enabled by means of the respective second client.
- the service provider could thus enable the respective customer to collect data, in particular orders that are intended for him. This would enable the respective service provider to only do business with certain customers or shippers and thus limit its customer base independently.
- the data could be acquired on at least one website using at least one data mask using the first client.
- Such a, preferably standardized, data mask also enables smaller customers to enter orders independently without incurring any costs for setting up such a recording measure.
- the data mask could be individually tailored to the first and / or the second client.
- the customer and / or the service provider could thus collect or have data tailored to their needs.
- the data could be transmitted automatically to the second client. This would be particularly conceivable with a regular and high number of orders, whereby the customer receives an interface to the web server and / or the second client and his orders are automatically transmitted to the service provider.
- the automatic transmission of the order data could then take place directly or via an in-house server of the service provider to the second client and in the order processing of the service provider.
- An in-house server is to be understood as the server of the LAN.
- the login and / or the data transmission could be encrypted, preferably by means of SSL encryption - a secure socket layer encryption.
- the encryption it would also be conceivable for the encryption to be carried out using any other protocol or program.
- the data of the database on the database server could be mirrored in at least one further database on at least one further database server.
- this ensures that the data is backed up, and on the other hand, if the system was designed accordingly, improved accessibility of the system would have been achieved.
- the data from the database could be queried using SQL - Structured Query Language.
- the data from the database could also be queried using any other query language.
- the data could be converted in a particularly advantageous manner by means of an EDI server, so that the information can be processed almost without media breaks.
- a data transmission standard could be, for example, ODETTE - Organization for Data Exchange by Teletransmission in Europe - how it is used, for example, in the European automotive industry.
- any other data transmission standard could also be used.
- the data could be transferred using EDIFACT.
- a prerequisite for data exchange using EDIFACT would be the selection of suitable software for conversion, sequence control and data transfer.
- a converter in the narrower sense i.e. a format or structure converter
- tools are usually offered that serve to manage and control the transmission data. The converter and tools then form the converter system.
- the data could then also be adapted to the software used by the second client.
- the data, preferably from the EDI server, to the second client could be carried out using a transmission protocol, in particular XML, FTP, OFTP, X.25, X.400 or the like.
- the data could also first be transmitted from the EDI server to another server, from which it is then transmitted to the second client.
- This additional server could be the in-house server of the service provider.
- Such a standard transmission protocol would ensure the universal replaceability for the service provider in a very special way.
- the data could be output in the form of a form, in particular in the form of an individually customizable form.
- the data could be processed further using software from the second client, in particular transferred in the order entry. This would eliminate another source of error by not manually processing the data. In addition, it would be particularly easy to change orders that have already been created.
- the data could also correspond to orders for moving objects. In particular, one should think of forwarding-specific processes, i.e. a customer - a shipper - the data - the order - for the transport of objects - goods - to a logistics service provider - a forwarding agent - and the forwarding agent transports the goods from one place to another ,
- the objects could be identified by means of identification, preferably a barcode, an identification number or the like. This would have the particular advantage that the objects can be found at any time and that the course of the objects would be traceable.
- the identification and / or parts of the data and / or the entire data could be output in the form of a label. These labels would then be easily attached to the objects so that no additional errors occur due to the manual transfer of the data.
- the data originally recorded and stored on the database server could then be supplemented by data which correspond to the movement of the objects.
- the movement data could be acquired by means of a detection device, preferably a scanner, a mobile radio unit or the like. In the case of a scanner, the data could be collected, which is then transferred to a computer in a special station, transmitted via the Internet and processed further. In the case of a mobile radio unit - GSM, UMTS - a transmission via a "SMS - Short Message Service Center" or via another service unit of a provider of the respective mobile radio provider, for example via SMS or FTP, would be possible.
- the movement data could then be transferred to the The communication server could prepare the movement data and / or assign the movement data to the relevant data which correspond to an order.
- the movement data could be called up by means of the first client and / or the second client, in particular by means of the respective in-house server.
- the web server could be protected by means of a firewall and / or a DMZ - demilitarized zone.
- the firewall is a combined hardware and software system for protecting a local network - LAN - with a connection to the Internet against attacks from the Internet.
- the firewall could be supplemented by a DMZ, which could be a host or a small network, which acts as a "neutral zone" between the LAN and the external public network, the Internet.
- the DMZ therefore protects the web server from direct access by users from outside and is therefore an optional and secure application as a supplement to a firewall.
- the data could be checked and / or completed automatically by means of at least one further database.
- This could be done, for example, in the form of an address book functionality, a storage of standard data, such as a match code for recipient addresses, frankings or the like, but also in an automatic assignment of locations to postcodes.
- the data could also be supplemented by additional data, in particular dangerous goods data. This would make data collection easier again.
- statistics about the data and / or parts of the data could be called up by means of the first and / or second client. These statistics would make it possible for the customer and / or the service provider to develop, for example, corporate strategies and / or to tailor their services to the needs of the respective customer. It would also be possible for the customer to call up price and / or runtime information, for example.
- a further service provider preferably an e-shop
- the data could be transmitted to another client, who in this case could be the shipper of the objects.
- all and / or parts of the data could be called up by other clients, namely by the customers of the e-shop.
- the data which are called up by the further clients could be restricted by the second and / or the third client. This ensures that customers can only call up data that is relevant and specific to them.
- FIG. 1 is a schematic representation of an embodiment of a system structure for use with the inventive method for processing data over the Internet
- FIG. 2 shows a schematic illustration of a further exemplary embodiment of a system structure for use with the method according to the invention
- FIG. 3 shows a schematic representation of the data flow of the embodiment of Figs. 2 and Fig. 4 in a schematic representation, the data flow of a further embodiment of the method according to the invention.
- the method for processing data over the Internet comprises two clients 1, 2, a web server 3 and a database server 4 for storing and retrieving data.
- a customer namely a shipper
- the data is then sent via the web server 3 by the logistics service provider, namely a freight forwarder, primarily accessed.
- the first client 1 there is an assignment between the first client 1, the data stored on the database server 4 and the second client 2 retrieving the stored data.
- the data of the first client 1 are assigned by the selection of the second client 2 by means of the first client 1 instead.
- the shipper is part of a group of shippers who primarily store 1 data using a first client and the freight forwarder is part of a group of forwarders who primarily retrieve 2 data using a second client. This means that there are a large number of first and second clients 1, 2, each of which is assigned to a specific shipper or a specific forwarding agent.
- the selection of the second client 2 by means of the first client 1 is limited to a fixed group of second clients 1 enabled by means of the respective second client 2. This enables the freight forwarder to only do business with certain customers or shippers and thus determine their own customer base.
- the data is recorded in a data mask by the first client 1 via the Internet on a website.
- the data mask is individually tailored to the shipping company so that it receives all the information it needs to process the order.
- the structure of the data mask can also be changed by the forwarding agent using the second client 2, so that the data to be filled in by the shipper can be adapted at any time.
- tenbankserver 4 and the second client 2 is done using SSL encryption.
- the data in the database on the database server 4 are mirrored in another database on another database server - not shown here.
- the data from the database is queried using SQL.
- the data is converted using an EDI server and the data is transferred using EDIFACT.
- the data are adapted to the software used by the second client 2, so that the data are taken over directly in the order processing of the forwarding agent.
- the data is transmitted from the EDI server 5 to the second client 2 by means of FTP - File Transfer Protocol -.
- the web server 3 is protected by a firewall 7 and a DMZ 8.
- FIG. 2 shows a further exemplary embodiment of a system structure for use with the method according to the invention.
- the system structure of the exemplary embodiment shown in FIG. 1 is expanded in such a way that a track-and-trace function can be carried out.
- the data correspond to orders for moving objects, in this case goods.
- the goods are identified by means of an identification number which is attached to the goods in the form of an issued label.
- the movement data are now recorded by the freight forwarder in such a way that the identification number and the respective station at which the goods are located are transmitted to a communication server 9 by means of a cell phone 6 via SMS and by means of the SMS center 10 of the respective cell phone provider.
- FIG. 3 shows the data flow of the exemplary embodiment in FIG. 2.
- the order data are transmitted to the second client 2 by means of the system, ie the first client 1, the web server 3, the database server 4 and the EDI server 5.
- the identification number of the goods is then transmitted to the recipient A of the goods by means of the second client 2. Using this identification number, the recipient A can query movement data and thus the location of the goods from the database server 4 via the Internet.
- the freight forwarder now transmits the new movement data to the communication server 9, the communication server 9 processing the movement data and assigning it to the order data.
- FIG. 4 shows the data flow of a further exemplary embodiment of the method according to the invention.
- An e-shop is interposed between the customer and service provider. Deep-linking thus takes place.
- the customer who visits the e-shop now transmits data to a third client 11 via the Internet using the first client 1 and via a further web server (not shown here).
- the and-trace function takes place via the third client 11, namely the e-shop, and the data recorded on the website of the e-shop is now automatically transmitted to a shop operator B, who carries out the inventory management Forwarding-relevant data are transmitted by means of the third client 11 and / or via the shop operator B using the method already described in FIGS. 1 and 2.
