Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a plurality of order request machines capable of transmitting order request data including product data selected with reference to an acquired order product master file, and an order product master file to each order request machine. And an ordering machine capable of transmitting each ordering data corresponding to each ordering request data received from each ordering requesting machine and transmitting the created ordering data to each ordering party. The present invention relates to a data processing device.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art FIG. 6 shows a POS system in which a merchandise order data processing device is integrated. Each terminal (electronic cash register) 10 is provided in a store (for example, 200A), and performs product registration, accounting processing, and the like. The store controller (for example, 20A) installed in the store connected by the data communication network (for example, LAN) 1 includes a function of downloading various data to each terminal 10 and collecting each sales data, All terminals 10 are managed collectively. Therefore, complicated product sales operations can be performed quickly and accurately, and management analysis data and the like can be obtained quickly and accurately.

The host computer 50 arranged in the headquarters 100 is connected to each store controller 2 in each store 200.
0 and data communication network (for example, ISDN, WAN) 2
Connected and manage them collectively. For example, all stores 2
00 total sales management and each store controller 20
Inquires from credit companies for inquiries from.

[0004] For example, a product order data processing device integrally configured by effectively utilizing the function of the POS system described above includes a plurality of order request machines (store controller 20) capable of transmitting order request data including product data. , And each order data corresponding to each order request data received from each order requesting machine (20) can be created, and the created order data is transferred to each order destination (for example, 300A, 300B,..., 30).
0N), an ordering machine (host computer 5)
0).

That is, the order requesting machine (20) obtains the ordered product master file shown in FIG. 7 in the ordering machine (host computer 50), and selects and refers to the selected product data (product code, product name, unit price, Own store 2 including business partners)
The order request data (including the number of orders) in 00 is input using, for example, a keyboard and stored in an order request file. When an order request is made in a timely manner, the order request transmitting means calls the order request data and transmits it to the order machine (host computer 50).

[0006] The ordering machine (50) is provided for each ordering machine (20).
When the order request data is received from the company, the order data is created and stored in the order file. After that, the order data totalized for each ordering party (vendor) 300 is transmitted to each of the ordering parties 300A to 300N. Thus, each delivery data processing machine 90A- in each of the suppliers 300A-300N.
90N issues a delivery slip and the like. It is delivered to each store 200 from each supplier 300.

[0007]

By the way, the order request in the store 200 including the product data (product code, product name, unit price, business partner) selected while referring to the product file in the order requesting machine (20). Creating data (including order quantity) is not just a task of creating data,
It is an important matter that affects the profitability of the store.

[0008] In particular, it is difficult to determine whether or not an unsold product will occur in the ordered product. If it is a returnable product, it will be minor damage, but if it is not returnable, it will be damaged as it is. Moreover, while the types of products to be sold are increasing and business relationships are becoming more complicated, it is now very difficult to quickly and accurately determine whether each ordered product is a returnable product or a non-returnable product. It is difficult and time-consuming to create accurate and accurate order request data, and the work efficiency is poor.

It is an object of the present invention to provide a product order data processing device capable of quickly and accurately creating accurate order request data.

[0010]

According to a first aspect of the present invention, there are provided a plurality of order requesting machines capable of transmitting ordering request data including product data selected with reference to an obtained ordering product master file; Ordering machine that can send the order master data to each ordering machine, can create each ordering data corresponding to each ordering request data received from each ordering machine, and can send the created ordering data to each supplier In the merchandise order data processing device having the above, the order machine can input and input a merchandise category indicating a purchased merchandise or a consigned merchandise for each merchandise stored in the ordered merchandise master file. A product category is formed so as to be stored in the ordered product master file in association with each product, and each of the order requesting machines creates the order request data. Wherein a product order data processing device capable of forming display the Categories for each item stored in the order item master file received from the order unit.

[0011] In this invention, the ordering machine inputs a product category indicating whether the product is a purchased product or a consigned product for each product stored in the ordered product master file, and orders the input product category. The product master file is stored in association with each product.

Each order requesting machine, when creating order request data, displays the product category for each product stored in the ordered product master file received from the ordering machine, and displays each product category from the displayed product category. Order request data is created while determining whether the product is a non-returnable purchased product or a returnable consignment product.

Therefore, accurate order request data can be quickly and accurately created, and the business efficiency and business performance can be greatly improved.

According to a second aspect of the present invention, there are provided a plurality of order request machines capable of transmitting order request data including product data selected with reference to the acquired order product master file, and an order product master transmitted to each order request machine. A product having an ordering machine capable of transmitting a file, capable of creating ordering data corresponding to each ordering request data received from each ordering machine, and capable of sending the created ordering data to each ordering party. In the order data processing device, the order machine is provided with a product category input means for inputting a product category indicating whether the product is a purchased product or a consigned product for each product stored in the ordered product master file. Product category storage control means for storing the product category corresponding to each product in the ordered product master file; Product category display control means is provided for displaying the product category for each product stored in the ordered product master file received from the ordering machine when creating the request data in association with the product on the display. , A product order data processing device.

[0015] In this invention, the ordering machine uses the product category input means to input a product category indicating whether the product is a purchased product or a consigned product for each product stored in the ordered product master file. Then, the product category storage control means stores the input product category in the ordered product master file in association with each product.

On each order requesting machine side, when creating order request data, the product category display control means displays the product category for each product stored in the ordered product master file received from the ordering machine on the display. It is displayed in association with each product. That is, it is possible to create the order request data while determining whether each of the products is a non-returnable purchased product or a returnable consignment product from the displayed product category.

[0017] Therefore, accurate order request data can be quickly and accurately created, and handling is simple, and business efficiency and business performance can be greatly improved.
