In such a system configuration, the order information of the product is input from the customer's input terminal device 23 and supplied to the order processing unit 25 in the head office server 16 (FIG. 11) via the web 24. The order receiving module 25A in the order receiving processing unit 25 includes a receiving unit according to the type of the input terminal device 23 of the customer. For example, if the order is in the i mode, the receiving unit in the i mode supports, or the order by telephone. If so, the voice receiving unit converts it into order data. The order data is sent to each of the product display module 25B and the order registration module 25C, further converted into a unified format by the interface 26, and registered and accumulated in the catalog master 17 and the order master 28.

Further, at this time, the control section 25D searches for whether the ordered product is a national product or a local product. As a result, in the case of national products, as described above,
Centralized orders are made collectively from the headquarters server, and in the case of local products, the member stores in the local areas make distributed orders. In either case of the centralized order or the distributed order, the optimum supplier is selected in consideration of the delivery efficiency.

A selection procedure for automatically selecting the optimum supplier will be described with reference to FIG.

FIG. 13 is a flow chart showing the procedure for selecting the optimum supplier. In the figure, when the headquarter server 16 (FIG. 11) receives an order from the customer terminal, it reads out the product information regarding the ordered product from the product master 17 (FIG. 11) (step S71). Further, the order master 28 (FIG. 12) reads the order information of the ordered product, for example, the information such as the delivery date and the delivery destination (step S72).
Further, although not shown, the supplier information regarding the supplier is read from the supplier master (step S73).

Then, the optimum supplier for the ordered product is selected and determined by optimizing these three pieces of information, that is, the ordered product information, the order information, the trader information and the like (step S74).

Then, the ordered product is ordered from the determined optimum supplier (step S75), the supplier receives the order (step S76), and the procedure for ordering the ordered product to the optimum supplier is as follows. finish.

When the customer logs in to the home delivery system via the terminal 23 (FIG. 12), only the products handled by the member store designated by the customer when joining the membership are displayed on the terminal 23 on the customer side. It is supposed to be done.

FIG. 14 shows an order processing section 25 shown in FIG.
5 is a flowchart showing an order check work procedure in FIG.

The input information (step S81) from the customer terminal 23 shown in FIG. 12 is converted into a uniform format by the input interface (step S82), and the order data in the headquarters server 16 (FIG. 11) is used as order data. It is sent to the processing unit 25 (FIG. 12) (step S83).

Received by the headquarters server (step S8)
4) The order data is stored in the order processing section 25 (FIG. 12).
For example, it is checked whether the product name is correct, the same product is not dubte ordered, or the order amount is incorrect (step S85).

As a result of the check, if it is determined that there is no mistake (N), the order data is the order master 28.
It is registered and stored in (FIG. 12) (step S86), and at the same time, it is sent to the display section on the headquarters side for confirmation display (step S87).

On the other hand, if the result of the check is that there is an error (Y), the fact is displayed on the customer's terminal to inform the client that there is an error in the order (step S88). At the same time, a confirmation display having the same meaning is also displayed on the display unit on the headquarters side (step S89).

Next, the procedure for editing a product catalog by the product delivery system of the present invention will be described with reference to FIG.

Generally, a member store that sells fresh foods and daily necessities updates the product lineup of products to be sold, for example, every week or every month, and also updates the product catalog to be sold during that period. The product delivery system of the present invention provides such a catalog editing service to franchise affiliated stores. FIG. 15 is a flow chart showing the procedure for editing this catalog, showing the procedure for editing a sales catalog that contains products that are to be sold to a member store, such as magnetism, including products that the member store originally developed. .

First, in the member store, the photograph of the developed product and the product introduction description are input from the input unit 22 of the client terminal 20 shown in FIG. 11 (step S91) and sent to the head office server 16 (step S92).

When the headquarters server receives the data (step S93), it sends it to the product master 17 (see FIG. 1).
It is registered in 1) (step S94).

Next, the member store inputs the catalog production conditions such as the product name and the package form necessary for catalog editing (step S95), and sends it to the headquarter server (step S96).

The headquarter server receives the catalog production condition (step S97), searches the catalog master 17 shown in FIG. 11 using this as a search condition (step S98), and the resulting catalog data is the member store. Is transmitted to the client terminal 20 (step S99),
It is displayed on the display unit (step S100).

The member store looks at the displayed catalog data, determines, for example, in which position in the catalog, which product is to be posted, and sends the result to the head office master (step S101). The headquarters master registers the determination result in the catalog master 17 (FIG. 6) (step S102), and the catalog is edited and created based on the registered information (step S103). The created catalog data is transmitted again to the member store side and is received by the client terminal device 20. The member store brings the received catalog information to the nearest printing company and requests catalog printing.

By the way, when the product is a perishable food, the just-in-time system is used for the purchase order of the product or the product material, and for example, in order to prepare the supplier for the product, for example, on the day of the order. A pre-order will be placed at 18:00 and then a final order will be placed at midnight on the day of the order to confirm the purchase to the supplier.

By carrying out the two-step ordering, the stock of each member store on the purchasing side can be brought close to zero and the cost can be minimized. Further, the supplier side can also prevent the loss of order due to the product being out of stock, and can develop economically advantageous commercial transactions.

Next, referring to FIG. 1 and FIG. 2, a series of work procedures for ordering, processing, packing, and delivering the goods ordered by the customer as described above will be described. Of these series of operations, except for a part of ordering merchandise, all are performed by the member store. As mentioned above, in the case of nationwide merchandise, as for the merchandise ordering, as described above, centralized orders are made collectively from the headquarters server, and in the case of local merchandise,
The member stores in the region make distributed orders.

In FIG. 1, the customer order data is stored in the database 4 for each customer. The merchandise operation instruction module 6 reads out the ordered merchandise or merchandise materials stored in the database 4 by the ordering and purchasing function unit 6A shown in FIG. 2 and places an order with a supplier such as a wholesaler who sells each of them. In addition, the order purchase instruction function unit 6A
When ordering, the items are ordered by each supplier, each maker, each material, each purchase amount, and the like.

As described above, the ordered goods / materials are delivered from the supplier 2-3 hours after the order is placed. Of the delivered materials, processing of "sashimi", "vegetables", etc. For foods that require
The processing method is also instructed by B, and the processing is performed in the processing factory provided in the member store.

The volumes of the processed products are measured and input together with the products that do not need to be processed under the control of the picking instruction function unit 6C. The shipping pack for delivery used in the product delivery system of the present invention has a fixed volume for the purpose of efficiently loading the delivery vehicle. Therefore, the number of shipping packs for each customer is determined in advance by calculating the quantity of the product / foodstuff that can be stored in one shipping pack based on the measurement results of their volumes.

In this way, when the material is processed and the volume of the product and the material is calculated, as will be described later, it is composed of 3 to 4 stages provided in a product assortment packing line called picking. It is placed at a predetermined position on the sorting shelf. And the products and materials placed on the sorting shelves are
Sorting and packing personnel called pickers arranged on the picking line pack each customer into a shipping pack.

Incidentally, the payment processing of the price is performed in parallel with these operations.

FIG. 16 is a block diagram showing the structure of a picking line used in the product delivery system of the present invention.

In the figure, the U-shaped transfer line 30 is provided with a freezing zone 31 and a dry zone 32. On the transfer line 30, for example, a delivery box 34 filled with four shipping packs 33 is placed, and a plurality of pickers 3 waiting in the freezing zone 31 and the dry zone 32, respectively.
It is carried in front of 5.

A sensor 36 is installed on the transfer line 30 near the line on the opposite side of the standby position of each picker 35.
Four electronic display boards 37, which is the number of delivery packs 33, are installed in front of. The delivery box 34 is configured to stop in front of the picker 35 by the sensing operation of the sensor 36.

Further, at the starting point of the transfer line 30, there is installed a label issuing machine 38 for printing and issuing member labels assigned to each registered customer. That is, the member number, name, delivery address, etc. of the customer are printed on the member label. The label issuing machine 38 issues the packets in the order of the routes having the best delivery efficiency. For this routing, the delivery instruction function unit 6D (FIG. 2) calculates the required time in consideration of, for example, the location of the customer who is the member, the address address, or the road condition and the traffic congestion in the vicinity of the customer's address, and the shortest time The routing is determined.

In the freezing zone 31 and the dry zone 32, picking shelves 39, each of which is provided with goods or materials to be delivered and which are temporarily arranged, are arranged at the rear of the picker 35, and each of which has three to four stages. is set up.

The picking shelves 39 are also provided with a lightning display board 40 for each shelf, and the shipping pack 33
The products and materials to be stored in are ordered according to their volume and the order of delivery route. That is, for example, a routing with the best delivery efficiency is determined in advance so that distant customers are sequentially delivered to nearby customers, and instructions are given to store the products and materials in the shipping pack 33 in accordance with the determined order. In addition, the picker 35 is instructed to store in the designated shipping pack 33 based on the volumes of the products and materials. The label issuing machine 38 also issues a label based on the above information.

In the picking line having such a configuration, first, the label issuing machine 38 issues the member label of the customer who received the order. This member label is automatically attached to the delivery box 34. When the labeled delivery box 34 is conveyed by the transfer line 30 and is conveyed in front of the picker 35, a sensor 36
Is detected, the movement of the transfer 30 is stopped.

The picker 35 uses the stopped delivery box 3
Products and materials are placed in the four shipping packs 33 of 4 for each ordering customer. In this case, the picker 35 is instructed by the electronic display board 40 operating under the control of the picking instructing function unit 6C, which products and materials should be stored in each shipping pack 33. Based on this instruction, the picker 35 takes out from the picking shelf 39 and stores it in each shipping pack 33.

Four shipping packs 3 in shipping box 34
When the commodities and materials are put into the picker 3, the picker 35 pushes an “end button” (not shown) displayed on the electronic display board 40 to indicate that the picking is finished.
Let C know. The picking instruction function unit 6C restarts the movement of the transfer line 30 at the time when the work of putting the materials of all the plurality of pickers 35 is completed, and the next transfer box 34 is transferred to the front of each picker 35 and stopped.

The picking instructing function section 6C performs shelving allocation for the picking shelves 39. As described above, this shelving allocation is, for example, a heavy product, a material in the lower stage, and a product that is often ordered. , The materials are instructed by the electronic display board 40 so as to be arranged in the middle so that the picker 35 can be easily taken out. Therefore, the work efficiency of the picker 35 is extremely high, which is useful for increasing the operation speed of the entire home delivery system from order receipt to delivery.

The above operation is common to the dry zone 32 and the freezing zone 31, and all the picking of the material that requires freezing is performed only in the freezing zone 31.

On the other hand, in the payment for the ordered products, when the products and materials are ordered, the amount equivalent to the price is automatically locked in the total time deposit of the customer who is a member, and the payment securing process is actually performed. Done.

Next, the four shipping packs 33 are stored, and the carrier box 34 with the member label indicating the location of the delivery destination is attached to each customer's house as the orderer according to the routing determined in advance by the delivery person. Be delivered to. In this case, for example, 28 transport boxes 34 per delivery route are stored in the "car" (not shown) in the order of delivery. This "car" has a shelf that can store a plurality of transport boxes 34, and rollers are attached to the lower part. This "car" is loaded on the bed of a light vehicle for delivery and is transported according to the delivery route.
