DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to an electronic commerce system, a data processing device, a method for determining a sales price of a product, and a recording medium, and more particularly, to a system and a system for performing electronic commerce on a network such as an intranet or the Internet. It is suitable for use in a method of determining a selling price of a product handled in the commercial transaction.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art In recent years, sellers have provided information on various commodities using a network such as the Internet, so that buyers can purchase desired commodities by viewing the information on the commodities. Commerce is active. This e-commerce is roughly divided into what is called B to C (Business to Cons
umer) and so-called B t, meaning transactions between companies
o There is B (Business to Business) transaction.

[0003] The selling price of a product in electronic commerce is stored as price information in a database of a server that manages a website for electronic commerce, for example. Then, it is displayed on a web page or the like together with product information for specifying the product, and presented to the purchaser. Where generally B
In actual business transactions related to toB, it is customary to change the selling price (partition rate with respect to the standard price) of the product according to the company to which it sells, and it is necessary to make this possible in the world of electronic commerce. desired.

[0004] In order to realize such electronic commerce,
Conventionally, table information in which the partition ratio is changed for each selling company is set and stored in a database, and different selling prices are presented for each selling company with reference to the table information. Was. That is, when an order for a product is made from a client terminal of a certain purchasing company via a network, the server of the selling company refers to the table information and reads the partition rate set for the company that made the order. . Then, using the partition rate, the standard price ×
The sales price is determined based on the partition rate and presented on a web page or the like.

[0005] Further, there are cases where the partition ratio is desired to be changed depending on the product to be sold even by the same selling company. In this case, table information in which the partition ratio is changed for each selling company and each product to be sold is set and stored in a database, and this table information is referred to for each selling company and sales. Different selling prices are presented for each product.

[0006]

However, according to the above-mentioned conventional technology, when the table information of the partition ratio is first set, one partition ratio different for each selling company and for each product sold is set. It is necessary to set one. In this case, if there are many sellers and products to sell,
This setting work is very complicated, and there is a problem that it takes enormous time and effort.

Further, when it is desired to change the table information of the partition ratio once set, and to change the partition ratio for a plurality of sales destination companies or a plurality of products, the partition ratios are individually changed. We have to go. Therefore, there has been a problem that a huge amount of time and labor is required for the maintenance work of the table information.

Further, since the setting of the table information of the partition rate is manually performed by the operator of the selling company, the more the number of operations for setting the partition rate, the more likely it is for an input error or the like to occur, and an incorrect sales is performed. There is also a disadvantage that the price is presented to the selling company.

The present invention has been made in view of such circumstances, and simplifies the work of setting a partition rate (sales price) and the work of maintenance for goods handled in electronic commerce between companies, and makes these work easier. Is to be able to be easily performed.

DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS One embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings. FIG. 1 is a diagram illustrating an example of the overall configuration of an electronic commerce system according to the present embodiment. As shown in FIG. 1, the electronic commerce system of the present embodiment is configured by connecting a server 1 and a plurality of client terminals 2, 3, and 4 on a network 5 such as the Internet.
Here, one server 1, client terminal 2,
Although three “3” and “4” are shown, the number is not limited to this.

The server 1 is placed in, for example, a sales company that operates an online shopping electronic store, or a data center entrusted by the company. Also,
The client terminals 2, 3, and 4 are placed, for example, at a company that purchases a product (a seller company as viewed from the server 1). Here, of the client terminals 2, 3, and 4, reference numeral 2 denotes a purchasing company a, reference numeral 3 denotes a purchasing company b, and reference numeral 4 denotes an operator of a purchasing company c.

The server 1 manages, for example, an online shopping web page operated by a merchandise selling company, and stores various merchandise (in the present specification, the word merchandise includes services and electronic contents). We sell online. In addition, a plurality of client terminals 2,
The users 3 and 4 can access the web page of the server 1 via the network 5 and can purchase desired products by referring to various products posted on the web page.

In the electronic commerce system of the present embodiment, the network 5 is transmitted from one of the client terminals 2, 3, and 4.
When a product purchase request is input to the server 1 via the server 1, the server 1 refers to table information registered in advance and reads the partition rate set for the company making the purchase request. . Then, the selling price of the product requested to be purchased is determined by calculating “standard price × partition rate” and presented on a web page.

FIG. 2 is a block diagram showing the main functional configuration of the server 1, and the blocks shown here constitute the data processing apparatus of the present embodiment. In FIG. 2, reference numeral 11 denotes a web server, which is a client terminal 2,
HTML (Hyper Text Markup Languag) for 3 and 4
e) and other information. Specifically, in response to a request from the client terminals 2, 3, and 4, a product selection screen including various information on various products and their standard prices,
HT for product order screen etc. including information such as product sales price
Provide in ML format.

Here, when a certain purchasing company accesses the server 1, a product selection screen including the standard price of the product is first displayed. After that, when a company selects a certain product and sends a purchase request to the server 1, the server 1 determines a selling price according to the company and the purchased product, and displays it on the product order screen. I have to. However, the present invention is not limited to this mode.

For example, when a purchase-side company accesses a product selection screen, the server 1 determines the sales price of each product according to the company, and changes the sales price of each product from the beginning to the product selection screen. It may be displayed inside. The determination of which purchasing company is accessing the server 1 is based on the company name input by the purchasing company together with the product purchase request, or an identifier (ID) assigned to each company. It is performed in.

When the sales price of the product is displayed on the product order screen, the calculation of the sales price obtained from the table information may be performed only for the product for which the purchase was actually requested. On the other hand, if the selling price of the product is displayed from the beginning on the product selection screen, it is necessary to determine the selling price for all products, but it is not necessary to provide the purchasing company with the standard price of the product. Is also good.

Reference numeral 12 denotes a product master information storage unit, which is a database for storing various information on products sold in electronic stores. The product master information stored here includes, for example, a product name, product specifications, a standard price, a genre to which the product belongs (including a sub-genre and the like), and the like. FIG. 3 is a diagram showing the concept of the product master information. As shown in FIG. 3, the product master information stores information such as product genre, sub-genre, and product name arranged in a hierarchical manner. Note that the genre, sub-genre, and product name do not necessarily need to be managed as one product master information, but may be managed separately.

Reference numeral 13 denotes a company information storage unit, which is a database for storing various kinds of information relating to a selling company (business partner) who sells products in business-to-business transactions. The company information stored here includes, for example, the company name of the purchasing company, company I
D information and the like.

The registration of the product master information and the company information is performed, for example, by inputting the product master information and the company information using an input device such as a keyboard and a mouse on an input screen displayed on a display device provided in the server 1. Done by In addition, merchandise master information and company information created by a terminal other than the server 1 are stored in a floppy (registered trademark).
The registration may be performed by inputting via a removable storage medium such as a disk or the network 5.

Reference numeral 14 denotes a partition division setting unit, which registers partition divisions for managing the partition ratio of commodities on a group basis. As will be described later, in the present embodiment, partition categories are assigned as a group of partition rates to a product group such as a product genre or an individual product, and the partition rates can be managed on a group basis. The partition section setting unit 14 performs addition, change, deletion, and the like of the partition section. The information on the partition category set here is stored in the partition category information storage unit 15.

Numeral 16 denotes a partition division allocating section, which is stored in the partition classification information storage section 15 with respect to each product stored in the product master information storage section 12 or the genre and sub-genre of the product. Arbitrarily assign a partition category. As shown in FIG.
Is a function 16a for assigning a partition category in genre units.
And a function 16 for assigning a partition category in sub-genre units
b and a function 16c for allocating a partition category for each product.

Here, when the operator instructs, for example, to assign a desired partition category to a certain genre, the partition category assigning section 16 determines not only the designated genre itself but also the sub-genres belonging to the genre. The same partition category as that assigned to the genre is assigned to each product. Further, when the operator instructs to assign a desired partition category to a sub-genre, not only the instructed sub-genre but also individual products belonging to the sub-genre are assigned to the sub-genre. Assign the same partition category.

This will be described with reference to the example of the product master information shown in FIG. For example, suppose that the partition category “A” is assigned to the genre “computer”. In this case, in addition to the genre "computer" itself,
All sub-genres such as “server model”, “portable”, “desktop”,... Belonging to the “computer”, and all sub-genres such as “product 1”, “product 2”,. The partition category of the product is set to “A”.

Thereafter, it is assumed that a partition category "B" is assigned to a sub-genre "portable", for example.
In this case, the partition category of the genre “computer” remains “A”, but the sub-genre “portable” and the individual products such as “product 1”, “product 2”,. Partition type is "B"
Is set to Further, for example, when the partition category “C” is assigned to the product “Product 1”, the “Product 1” is assigned.
Is set to “C”.

FIG. 4 is a diagram conceptually showing the information of the partition section assigned in the above example. As shown in FIG. 4, the partition category “C” assigned at the lowest level of the product master
Is set only for “product 1”. Further, a partition category “B” assigned in the sub-genre “portable” in the upper layer is set for products other than “product 1” belonging to the “portable”. Further, the partition category “A” assigned in the genre “Computer” in the uppermost layer is set for the remaining products belonging to the “Computer”. Partition section allocation information set in this way (first table information)
Are stored in the partition assignment information storage unit 17 of FIG.

As described above, in the present embodiment, when a partition is assigned at a higher layer of the product master information having a hierarchical structure as shown in FIG. 3, the same partition is collectively assigned to the lower layers belonging to the same. To be assigned. Also,
When a partition is assigned at a lower level, the partition at an upper level is not changed, and the same partition is assigned only to a portion below the hierarchy for which the assignment is actually specified.

With this arrangement, it is possible to collectively assign the partition divisions of many commodities by assigning the division divisions at a higher layer, and it is also possible to individually assign the division divisions to a specific commodity. Can be easily assigned to a desired partition section.

Here, when a partition is assigned at a higher layer (genre or sub-genre) of the hierarchical structure, the same partition is assigned to all products belonging to the lower layer collectively. Partition information is assigned to all products (Fig. 4
Reference), information on the partition classification may be provided only for the portion actually assigned. That is,
If a partition category is assigned in a certain genre or sub-genre, partition category assignment information is provided only for the genre or sub-genre itself.

In this case, for example, when a partition category is not assigned to the commodity at the lowest level (when there is no partition category assignment information), when determining the selling price of the commodity, it is the layer immediately above it. Refer to the partition category assigned to the sub-genre. At this time, if no partition category is assigned to the subgenre immediately above, the partition category assigned to the genre, which is a higher tier, is referred to.

Returning to FIG. 2, the remaining configuration will be described. Reference numeral 18 denotes a partition rate setting unit,
For each individual company stored in the storage unit 3, the partition ratio is arbitrarily set for the partition set by the partition setting unit 14 and stored in the partition information storage unit 15. Information on the partition ratio set here (second table information) is stored in the partition ratio setting information storage unit 19.

FIG. 5 is a diagram conceptually showing an example of partition ratio information set by the partition ratio setting section 18. The partition divisions A to E shown in FIG. 5 represent all the partition divisions set by the partition division setting unit 14, and are commonly used in each company. In the initial state where the partition rate for the partition category is not set, the partition rate is 1
It is set to 00%. The operator can arbitrarily change the partition rate for this partition section. If there is a product to be sold at a fixed price without setting a partition rate, the partition rate of the partition section assigned to the product may be kept at 100%.

As described above, in the present embodiment, the partition set by the partition setting unit 14 is commonly used in each company, and therefore, for example, the partition “A” is assigned to a certain product. If so, the selling price for any company will be determined using the same partition category "A" for that product. However, in the present embodiment, the partition rate for the partition category “A” can be set arbitrarily for each company. As a result, a different partition rate is set for each company even for the same product. It is possible.

Reference numeral 20 denotes a selling price calculation unit, which is standard price information of a product stored in the product master information storage unit 12, partition partition allocation information stored in the partition allocation information storage unit 17, and partition ratio. The sales price of the product is calculated based on the partition ratio information stored in the setting information storage unit 19.

That is, for example, when a request to purchase a certain product is input from a certain purchasing company to the web server 11, the partition classification assignment information and the partition rate setting information as shown in FIGS. It allocates and specifies the partition ratio of the product requested by the purchasing company as a purchase request for the purchasing company. Then, the sales price is determined by multiplying the specified partition rate by the standard price of the product, and is presented to the purchasing company via the web server 11.

FIG. 6 is a flowchart showing a series of procedures for setting the partition ratio. In FIG.
First, in step S1, the operator sets the partition classification setting unit 1
4 is used to set a partition category. In the above example,
Although “A” to “E” are set as the partitioning sections, the names are not limited to being simply represented as alphabets as described above, and an arbitrary name can be set for easy recognition.

Next, in step S2, the operator uses the partition assignment section 16 to assign the partition set in step S1 to the desired genre, sub-genre, and product (see FIG. 4). Further, step S3
Then, the operator arbitrarily sets a partition rate for each partition category for each purchase-side company stored in advance as company information (see FIG. 5). With the above procedure, the setting of the partition ratio required for determining the selling price of the product is completed.

The partition ratio once set in this way can be arbitrarily changed according to a subsequent sales strategy, introduction of a new product, or the like. At this time, the partition rate is determined by a combination of the table information relating to the allocation of the partition categories as shown in FIG. 4 and the table information relating to the partition rate as shown in FIG. By changing the contents, the partition ratio can be changed arbitrarily.

At this time, since the partition rate is set for the partition category for each purchasing company, it is not necessary to reset the partition rate for each product when reviewing the partition rate. If the partition rate is changed, the partition rates of a plurality of products corresponding to the partition category can be changed collectively. Also, at this time, by changing the assignment of the partition category to the product, the partition rate for a specific product can be changed.

Further, when changing the assignment of the partition section to the product, the partition section may be changed directly for each product, or the partition section may be changed for the genre or sub-genre. . When the partition category is changed for a genre or a sub-genre, the partition category of a large number of products belonging to the genre or the sub-genre can be changed at a time, and a desired partition category can be changed for a plurality of products. The assignment work can be simplified.

As described above in detail, according to the present embodiment, in the electronic commerce between companies, the work of setting the partition rate (sales price) different for each company and each product and the maintenance work can be simplified. These operations can be easily performed. Further, the number of operations to be manually performed by the operator in setting and maintaining the partition ratio can be reduced, and the partition ratio can be set with a minimum number of operations, so that the probability of occurrence of an input error or the like can be reduced.

The e-commerce system and the data processing device of the present embodiment described above are constituted by, for example, a CPU of a computer or an MPU, a RAM, a ROM, etc., and a program stored in the RAM or the ROM operates. It can be realized by doing. Therefore, the present invention can be realized by recording a program that causes a computer to perform the above function on a recording medium such as a CD-ROM, and reading the program into the computer. As a recording medium for recording the above program, a floppy disk, hard disk, magnetic tape, magneto-optical disk, nonvolatile memory card, or the like can be used other than the CD-ROM.

Further, not only the functions of the above-described embodiment are realized by the computer executing the supplied program, but also the OS (Operating System) or other application software running the computer on the computer. When the functions of the above-described embodiment are realized in cooperation with the computer, or when all or a part of the processing of the supplied program is performed by a function expansion board or a function expansion unit of a computer, the functions of the above-described embodiment are realized. Such a program is also included in the embodiment of the present invention.

The electronic commerce system of the above embodiment is used in a network environment.
All or some of the programs of the client terminals 2, 3, and 4 may be executed by another computer.

In the above embodiment, the electronic commerce performed through the network 5 such as the Internet has been described as an example. However, the data processing device of the present embodiment does not necessarily need to be used in a network environment, and may be a stand-alone type. It is also possible to use it as a computer or the like.

Further, in the above-described embodiment, it is possible to assign the partition division in units of product, sub-genre, and genre, but the present invention is not limited to this. In short, any category that manages one or more products in groups can be applied to genres and sub-genres.

In addition, each of the above-described embodiments is merely an example of an embodiment for carrying out the present invention, and the technical scope of the present invention should not be interpreted in a limited manner. It must not be. That is, the present invention can be embodied in various forms without departing from the spirit or main features thereof.

[0064]

As described above, according to the present invention, it is possible to set a partition rate for a desired partition section without setting a partition rate for a large number of individual products. The partition rates of a plurality of products corresponding to the partition category can be set collectively. In addition, by assigning a partition to a product group such as a genre or a subgenre, the same partition can be collectively assigned to a plurality of products belonging to the product group. As a result, the partition rate can be set with minimal operations,
It is possible to easily perform a setting operation and a maintenance operation of different partition rates (sales prices) for each sales destination and each product.
