Description

Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a collective settlement / management system, and in particular, in the field of commercial transactions such as mail-order sales and Internet shopping, a payment agent that allows a seller to easily use a plurality of payment methods at low cost. The present invention relates to a collective settlement / management system in which a service and a collective settlement service are associated with transportation information of products.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Generally, in the field of commerce, when carrying out commerce such as mail-order sales and electronic commerce for purchasers, there are problems on the side of the seller, such as effective use of various payment methods and transportation of goods. Understanding, reliable collection of money,
There are efficient settlement offices.

Typical settlement methods currently used in commercial transactions are a system for paying money through financial institutions such as banks and post offices, a system for paying money through convenience stores, and cash on delivery in combination with the distribution of goods. There are systems and payment systems using credit cards. Hereinafter, those four payment methods will be briefly described.

First, in a system for paying money through financial institutions such as banks and post offices, the purchaser of goods or services transfers the money to the account of the financial institution designated by the seller, and then the seller confirms receipt of the payment. To deliver products and services to users. With this system, transactions can be done only online, so intangible goods and services can also be used.

Next, in the system for paying the price through the convenience store, the purchaser of the product or service pays the price to the seller's designated convenience store,
After that, the seller confirms the receipt of the price and delivers the product or service to the user. With this system, transactions can be done only online, so intangible goods and services can also be used. In addition, most stores are open 24 hours a day, which is convenient for purchasers.

[0006] Further, the system for cash on delivery (cash on delivery), which is carried out in combination with the distribution of goods, delivers the goods through the logistics company after the contract between the purchaser and the seller is established, and the delivery staff at the time of delivering the goods. Will collect the payment, and at a later date the payment will be paid to the seller by the logistics company.

[0007] The credit card settlement system uses a credit card to collect the payment between the purchaser and the seller. The purchaser pays the price within the range of the amount contracted with the credit card company in advance. That is, when a purchaser wants to carry out a commercial transaction, the purchaser shows the card number in possession to the seller, and the seller bills the credit card company with the number. Payment from the purchaser to the credit card company is made after a certain period of time. With this system, transactions can be done only online, so intangible goods and services can also be used.

[0008] In this way, as payment methods are diversified,
In order to promote sales, retailers also aim to expand the number of buyers by diversifying payment methods, but on the other hand, due to the wide variety of payment destinations, it becomes complicated for accounting confirmation work such as confirmation of payment and settlement of fees. In addition, signing contracts with multiple payment agencies,
Office work such as maintenance is becoming complicated.

[0009] Although sellers use carriers to deliver goods to buyers, those carriers also have individual characteristics. That is, if the seller fixes the transportation company, there is a restriction that the products to be handled are defined by the conditions of the transportation company (for example, the range of the courier service agreement). Therefore, if the seller tries to expand the number of products to be mail-ordered so that the purchaser can select from multiple general freight flights, air mail, etc., the settlement work will be complicated. become.

[0010] In order to provide various payment methods, there is a business of performing payment on behalf. At present, a mechanism for managing various types of payment information has been proposed. Also,
As a mechanism of escrow, a mechanism is known in which payment is made to the seller when a product is delivered.

[0011]

However, in various payment methods, in a system that pays the price through a financial institution, the price is paid before confirming the product itself, so that the product or service is reliably delivered to the purchaser. There is no guarantee that the payment will be made, and the seller has a problem that the payment arrangement work is complicated due to the name similarity, the amount similarity, etc. due to the direct transfer from the purchaser.

[0012] In a system for paying a price through a convenience store, the price is paid before confirming the product itself, so there is a problem that there is no guarantee that the product or service will be reliably delivered to the purchaser, and the seller is , Due to the fact that it is effective that multiple convenience store operating companies are contracted, it is necessary to contract with multiple convenience store operating companies in advance, so it takes time to conclude the sale, There is a problem in that a person creates a payment slip in which the purchase amount is described in advance and delivers it to the purchaser, and in addition to a fee for each case, a fixed basic fee is applied.

The cash on delivery system has a problem in that it cannot be applied to goods and services that do not pass through the physical distribution system and can only make a lump sum payment, and the physical distribution company handles cash when it is expensive. Therefore, there is a problem that it is necessary to consider security.

In the credit settlement system, the payment request to the credit card company is made by the purchaser's card number, and the price is billed at a later date, so that the seller makes an illegal bill or the number is charged by a third party. There is a problem that it may be leaked to and misused, and that the purchaser needs to have a contract with the card company in advance and have a card, and the seller will contact the card company in advance. Contracts are required, and because multiple credit card companies with contracts are effective, multiple contracts require labor and maintenance costs, and payment sites from card companies are Since it is long, payment collection is slower than other payment methods and card fees are high.

The use of a plurality of payment means has a problem inherent in each of the payment methods described above, and the problem of adding complexity to the settlement operation due to the plurality of payment methods.

The present invention has been made in view of the above circumstances, and in the field of commercial transactions, the collection and payment of the price when the seller intends to conduct the commercial transaction for the purchaser is the transportation information and the settlement information. By linking with the agency, we will reliably provide the seller with transportation information, payment information, and efficient settlement operations.
The purpose is to provide a comprehensive settlement and management system for complex payments associated with transportation that can provide effective materials for ordering / shipping management and customer support.

Further, according to the present invention, the agency company is arranged so that the settlement can be made collectively even if the settlement means and the transporters are pluralized.
By selling multiple payment contracts to the seller, accepting warning services for each payment method, and associating the payment status with the transportation status and outputting detailed status and aggregated information, sales The purpose is to provide a collective settlement and management system for complex payments associated with transportation, which enables the person to efficiently perform settlement operations, order / delivery management, and customer support.

Further, the present invention organically combines the information obtained from the purchaser with the information on the payment method / transportation to recommend to the purchaser when to deposit or to the seller. It is possible to recommend when to buy, and it is possible to raise the satisfaction of both parties.
It aims at a collective settlement and management system for complex payments associated with transportation.

[0019]

However, the hard disk device of each computer stores programs and data according to the functions executed by each computer.

With the above hardware configuration,
The processing function of this embodiment can be realized. Next, the details of the function of each means in the seller acting system will be described.

4 and 5 are flowcharts showing the function of the collective contract means. First, the seller makes a contract with the operator (step S1). At this time, a contract for the operator to act on behalf, such as a payment collection contract and the setting of a closing date, is made. The information is mastered in the cash-on-delivery management master. Next, it is determined whether to select a plurality of payment methods (step S2).
When the seller selects multiple payments, the payment method is selected (step S3). This payment method is roughly divided into three types: credit payment, bank transfer, convenience store payment and postal transfer. First, it is determined whether or not the credit payment is selected (step S4). At this time, the operator can select from the available card companies that are registered in the card company master in cooperation with each other in advance, and if selected from them, make a contract with the credit member store (step S5). . Next, it is determined whether or not bank transfer is selected (step S6). At this time, the operator can select from the available banks registered in the settlement bank master in advance in cooperation with each other, and if selected from the available banks, the account of the selected settlement bank is assigned (step S7). Next, it is judged whether bank transfer, available convenience store, or postal transfer is selected (step S8), and if these are selected, the destination of the bill is selected (step S9). .

Next, the purchaser makes a shipping contract for carrying the purchased product (step S10). First, from a plurality of transportation routes (transportation companies) that are registered in advance in a cash-on-delivery transportation route master in association with each other, a plurality of transportation routes are selected according to the characteristics of the package and the delivery destination (step S11),
A fee for each payment method is set and registered in the cash-on-delivery payment method master (step S12), a terminal used by the seller is set and registered in the cash-on-delivery terminal management master (step S13),
Set whether to use the mail service for sellers and buyers, register it in the cash-on-delivery management route master (step S14), and notify when there is an accident such as damage to the product or no recipient. Set the service content and register it in the accident notification email transmission master (step S15),
Then, the content of the service to be warned when there is a case where there is no payment or shipping is set for each payment method (step S16).

In this way, a plurality of payment methods and a plurality of transportation routes can be registered at once. Figure 6
Is a flow chart showing the function of the payment information cooperation means.

Here, the flow of processing in which payment is actually received from each settlement operator to the operator and the flow of processing for notifying the seller are shown. There is a processing flow for each payment method, and the processing flow branches depending on whether the payment method is credit, convenience store / postal transfer, bank transfer, or cash on delivery (step S20).

When the method of payment by the purchaser who placed an order is credit, the credit is judged (step S21), and if the credit is NG, the seller is notified of that. If the credit is OK, the credit card company is issued for the order number. , Credit number and credit amount information are created (step S22), and the information is passed to the settlement operator. When the payment operator actually debits the account (step S23), the result is sent to the operator as deposit information, and the operator can identify which order is the card number and credit number in the deposit information. Then, the order is cleared (step S24), and the payment information indicating that the order has been paid is fetched (step S2).
5), notify the seller.

In the case of convenience store and postal transfer, an invoice is prepared in advance, an order number is printed on the invoice, and the order is sent to the purchaser (step S26). When payment is received from the purchaser (step S27), the amount of money deposited by the settlement operator and the order number printed on the invoice are sent to the operator as deposit information, so the operator enters the order number. The order is directly used to clear the order (step S28).

In the case of bank transfer, the order number is automatically calculated by the transfer account number to create the added information, and the information is printed on the transfer sheet and sent to the purchaser (step S2).
9). If there is a transfer from the purchaser (step S30),
Since the amount of money deposited by the settlement operator and the transfer account number are sent to the operator as payment information, the operator applies the order to the transfer account number (step S3).
1).

In the case of cash on delivery, an order number and an invoice number are given to the invoice when the package is sent (step S).
32). When the carrier delivers the product and collects the price (step S33), the amount of money collected and the invoice number are sent to the operator as transportation information and recorded in the career master. The person cancels the order with the invoice number (step S34).

In any of the settlement methods, after the order is cleared, the settlement information is fetched and the seller is notified.
The point of the process here is that there is a process for clearing which order has been deposited, and information for performing the clearing is created in advance for each payment method.

FIG. 7 is a flow chart showing the function of the transportation information cooperation means. Here, the flow from the notification of the payment completion to the seller by the operator to the delivery of the product is shown. First, the seller prepares the ordered product (step S40) and performs shipping registration (step S4).
1). Next, the seller determines the invoice issuing place according to the transportation route selected at the time of the collective contract (step S42),
When the seller prepares the invoice, the invoice data is downloaded (step S43), the invoice is printed based on the information, and the carrier is requested to collect the cargo (step S44). When the invoice issuing place is the carrier, the invoice is issued to the carrier or the carrier used by the carrier (step S45). In response to the collection request, the carrier collects the goods (step S46), registers the goods at the collection shop (step S47), delivers the collected goods to the purchaser (step S48), and registers the shop for delivery. Is performed (step S49). In the transportation information cooperation means 3, at any time,
The transportation information is being fetched, the information on the transporters used is summarized for each transporter (step S50), and the transportation information is provided to the seller (step S51).

FIG. 8 is a flow chart showing the function of the transportation / settlement management means. When you accept an order from the buyer,
The transportation / settlement management means 4 registers the order in the order master (step S60) and is sent to the order notification means 10 to notify the seller. After that, when the payment information cooperation means 2 receives the payment information, the payment information is taken and sent to the payment completion notification means 11 (step S61), and the order and the invoice are coordinated by the product shipping registration by referring to the shipping header. Perform (step S62). When the transportation information is sent to the transportation information cooperation means 3, the transportation information is read from the history master (step S63), and it is determined whether or not there is information regarding missing delivery, unregistered delivery, or accident completion (step S64). ). If there is applicable transportation information, correction processing of the cash-on-delivery settlement method master, cash-on-delivery management route master, master for accident notification mail transmission, warning, and notification service are provided (step S65). Next, it is determined whether or not the delivery information includes delivery completion information (step S66), and if there is, the result management process is performed (step S67). The above information on transportation and settlement is provided to the seller as transaction information (step S68).

FIG. 9 is a flow chart showing the function of the settlement means. The settlement means determines the settlement closing date designated by the seller based on the information of the cash-on-delivery management master (step S7).
0), fetch the order to be settled from the settlement data to obtain the total item price (step S71), determine the returned order from the settling history stored in the history master and obtain the total return item price ( (Step S72), determine the fee for each settlement method from the settlement target order stored in the cash-delivery method master, and obtain the total fee (step S73).
An order requiring stamp duty is determined from the order to be settled to obtain the total stamp tax (step S74), and an order using a gift certificate is determined from the order to be settled to obtain the total gift certificate (step S75). As described above, the settlement amount is calculated from the obtained total item price, total returned item price, total fee, total stamp tax and total gift certificate (step S76), and the settlement data is updated, and the settlement statement is created and printed ( Step S77). When calculating the settlement amount, if the settlement operator acts as the agent to settle the fare and fee between the seller and the carrier, the fare and fee are offset from the settlement amount. Next, a shipping table for each seller is created and printed (step S78), a statement of payment is sent to each seller (step S79), and the transfer amount for each seller is calculated and stored in the seller's designated account. Transfer (step S80), and finally create accounting journal (step S81).

FIG. 10 is a flow chart showing the function of the transaction information output means, FIG. 11 is a diagram showing an example of the screen display of the transaction information list displayed on the seller's terminal, and FIG. 12 is the shipping displayed on the seller's terminal. It is a figure which shows the example of a screen display of information details.

The transaction information output means 6 mainly provides the seller with transaction information for dealing with the purchaser. First, when the seller logs in, the transaction information output means 6
Performs user confirmation by checking the designated terminal with reference to the cash-on-delivery terminal management master (step S90). When the user is confirmed, order information is retrieved from the order master and the status thereof is displayed (step S91), settlement information is retrieved from the deposit statement accumulation master and the elapsed payment days are displayed (step S92), The shipping information is retrieved from the shipping header to display the transportation status (step S93), and the settlement information is searched from the settlement data to calculate the scheduled settlement date (step S9).
4) Simulate a transportation route change from the transportation route master, select a carrier that can be delivered quickly, and calculate and display the transportation cost when the transportation is changed (step S).
95).

The transaction information such as the order status, the number of days after payment, the scheduled settlement date, etc. obtained by the transaction information output means 6 is displayed on the transaction information list screen 71 shown in FIG. In the “state” column, the status of each order, such as received order, billed, paid, shipped, returned, etc., is displayed. Here, for products that have been shipped / delivered, it is possible to bring convenience to the seller by displaying the scheduled settlement date and displaying it, so that the number of days that have elapsed since payment can be displayed and the number of days can be sorted. By doing so, it is possible to make the order for rushing delivery known at a glance. Further, on this screen 71, by selecting “detail” in the “transaction” column, detailed transaction information for the corresponding order number can be displayed. Further, when "Details" in the "Shipping" column is selected, the shipping information details screen 72 shown in FIG. 12 is displayed, and the shipping information details of the corresponding product are displayed. On this screen 72, for example, when the label "transportation method" is selected, the simulation result when the transporter is changed to another transporter can be displayed.

Next, the date and time of how long it takes to transport the product is calculated according to the transportation route to the destination. That is, the transportation information table 83 of the transportation route master 82 is used to retrieve the transportation route from the delivery destination (landing), and the transportation date and time is calculated for each transportation company (step S134).

Next, the process branches depending on whether it is a delivery guide service or a deposit guide service (step S135). In the case of the delivery guide service, it is determined whether or not the purchaser has input the expected payment date (step S136). If there is an input, the number of payment days up to the customer input date input by the purchaser as the expected payment date is calculated (step S13).
7) Calculate the estimated shipping date by adding the number of deposit days and the previously arranged product arrangement date (step S138), and calculate the estimated delivery date by adding the estimated shipping date and the previously calculated transportation date and time (step S138). S139). If the expected payment date is not entered as in the case of credit card payment, the number of payment days is set to 0 (step S140), the product arrangement date is set to the planned shipping date (step S141), and the planned shipping date and the previously requested transportation are set. The scheduled delivery date is calculated by adding the date and time (step S142).

In the case of the payment guide service, the shipping date is calculated backward by subtracting the previously obtained transportation date and time from the desired delivery date, and the previously requested product arrangement date is subtracted to obtain the deposit request date (step S143). ).

The estimated delivery date and the deposit request date thus calculated are reflected on the estimated delivery date and the deposit request date in the “at confirmation” column on the screen 76. In the “at confirmation” column, the order number is input by calculation, the system date of the computer is input as the order date, and the product name and price of the product information are the search results of the product information table 81 of the product master 80. The search result of the product information table 81 of the product master 80 is input as the weight of the delivery information, the search result of the transport information table 83 of the transport route master 82 is input as the shipping cost of the delivery information, and the payment amount is The value calculated is input. Then, the contents confirmed by the purchaser are stored in the order information table 87 of the order master 86.

Therefore, when the purchaser inputs the desired delivery date at the order receiving means 8, it is possible to notify the purchaser in advance of the scheduled delivery date and when the deposit is required. become.
