Description

  The present invention relates to a system and method for effectively utilizing a seat (contract sheet) for which a contractor has authority to use for a predetermined period by contract, such as an annual contract sheet of a baseball field or a soccer field.

For example, there is a contract sheet for which the contractor has the authority to use for a predetermined period by contract, such as an annual contract sheet of a baseball field or a soccer field.
Such contract seats are set as relatively good seats, but it is very rare that all seats are used, when other general seats are full and general passengers cannot purchase seat tickets. However, there were many vacant seats in the contract sheet.
When such a contract sheet is not used by the contractor, it is preferable that the contract sheet is effectively utilized by being sold to others.
For example, a system for selling the right to use a general seat such as a reserved seat or a day seat has been devised, and there is also a system for selling a baseball seat ticket, a concert seat ticket, and the like via a network.

The stadium terminal 40 is connected to a printing device such as a printer. The control unit of the stadium terminal 40 reads the control program stored in the storage unit, connects to the management system 80 via the network 100, transmits / receives various data, and prints the received data. I do.

The database 50 stores contract sheet information regarding annual contract sheets and point information regarding points held by each contractor. These pieces of information are associated with each other by a contractor ID described later.
For example, as shown in FIG. 2, the contract sheet information includes a contract sheet information ID unique to the contract sheet information, a contractor ID of the contract sheet, a sheet ID, a sheet name, an event ID, an event name, an event date, an opening date (contract Date on which the seat is set to be sold), sales date (date on which the seat was purchased by the purchaser), seat fee, reservation number, and the like. Note that the contract sheet information is received at a predetermined timing such as when the annual contract sheet is sold to the contractor, and the sheet management system 60 accepts input of information regarding the annual contract sheet, and the contract sheet information based on the input information is displayed. It may be registered in the database 50.
For example, as shown in FIG. 3, the contractor information includes data such as a contractor ID, a password, a contractor name, a contractor's possession point, a contractor's e-mail address, and the like.

  For example, as shown in FIG. 4, the sheet management system 60 includes a computer including a control unit 61, a storage unit 62, an input unit 63, a display unit 64, and a communication control unit 65. It is connected. The control unit 61 includes a CPU (Central Processing Unit), a ROM (Read Only Memory), a RAM (Random Access Memory), and the like, and reads and executes an operation program stored in the storage unit 62 in advance, A sheet release process for receiving a contract sheet release instruction (sales instruction) from the user terminal 10 and updating the contract sheet information in the database 50, and a purchased sheet when an annual contract sheet registered in the database 50 is purchased. The contractor is notified to that effect and the point is added.

The storage unit 62 is composed of, for example, a hard disk device or the like, and stores an operation program to be executed by the control unit 61 and various data necessary for processing.
The input unit 63 is composed of an input device such as a keyboard and a pointing device, for example, and transmits input data to the control unit 61.
The display unit 64 is configured by a display device such as a display device, for example, and outputs various data according to instructions from the control unit 61.
The communication control unit 65 controls communication with other devices via the network 100 in accordance with instructions from the control unit 61.

  For example, as shown in FIG. 5, the seat secondary sales system 70 includes a computer including a control unit 71, a storage unit 72, an input unit 73, a display unit 74, and a communication control unit 75, and a database 50. The control unit 71 includes a CPU (Central Processing Unit), a ROM (Read Only Memory), a RAM (Random Access Memory), and the like. The control unit 71 reads and executes an operation program or the like stored in advance in the storage unit 72 to execute a contract. Accept the purchase request for the annual contract sheet released by the contractor (set as the sales target), and the secondary sale of the seat (here, the contract sheet sold to the contractor in response to the request from the contractor) Open sheet sales processing, etc.

The storage unit 72 is configured by, for example, a hard disk device or the like, and stores an operation program to be executed by the control unit 71 and various data (such as a contractor's user ID and password) necessary for processing.
The input unit 73 is configured by an input device such as a keyboard and a pointing device, for example, and transmits input data to the control unit 71.
The display unit 74 is constituted by a display device such as a display device, for example, and outputs various data according to instructions from the control unit 71.
The communication control unit 75 controls communication with other devices via the network 100 in accordance with instructions from the control unit 71.

Next, the sheet release process when the contractor of the annual contract sheet opens (sets as a sales target) will be described with reference to the flowchart of FIG.
The control unit 61 of the seat management system 60 transmits a predetermined menu screen in response to a request from a terminal (in this case, the user terminal 10) connected via the network 100, and “release contract sheet” is selected from the menu. Selected. The user terminal 10 transmits a sheet opening request to the sheet management system 60, and in response, the control unit 61 requests and receives the user ID and password input from the user terminal 10, and receives the received user ID. And the password are compared with the user ID and password in the contractor information registered in the database 50 to confirm the validity of the connection source (step S1).

Next, the control unit 61 receives input of information (open sheet information) for specifying a contract sheet to be set as a sales target (step S2). The release information to be input may be, for example, the sheet ID of the sheet to be released and the date of the event.
The control unit 61 identifies the corresponding contract sheet information in the database 50 based on the input release sheet information, and acquires the data item of “open date” in the specified contract sheet information from the internal clock of the system. The today's date is set and the database 50 is updated (step S3). Thereby, the annual contract sheet designated by the contractor is set as the sales target.

Next, an open sheet sales process in the case of selling an open annual contract sheet (set as a sales target) to a purchase applicant will be described with reference to the flowchart of FIG.
The control unit 71 of the seat secondary sales system 70 receives a predetermined menu in response to a request from a terminal (in this case, any of the user terminal 10, the store terminal 30, and the stadium terminal 40) connected via the network 100. The screen is transmitted, and “Purchase of opened contract sheet” is selected from the menu. Then, the terminal transmits a seat purchase request to the seat secondary sales system 70. In response to this, the control unit 71 refers to the contract sheet information in the database 50, the date is set in the data item “Open Date”, and the data item “Sales Date” is empty (or the initial value). The contract sheet information (with the value) is searched (step S11). When there is corresponding contract sheet information (step S12: YES), the control unit 71 transmits a list screen of each corresponding contract sheet information to the request source terminal for display (step S13). At this time, a part of the contract sheet information (sheet ID, sheet name, event ID, event name, date, etc.) may be displayed for each contract sheet information.

  Then, when contract sheet information is selected from the contract sheet information list screen at the terminal and a purchase request is transmitted from the terminal, for example, when a purchase button is pressed, the purchase request is received (step S14: YES). The unit 71 performs a settlement process for the contract sheet specified by the selected contract sheet information so that the annual contract sheet vendor receives payment of the usage amount from the purchaser (step S15). The settlement method in this settlement process is arbitrary. For example, the credit card number may be input to the terminal to perform the credit settlement process, and the electronic money is obtained from the purchaser's card in which the electronic money is stored using the card reader. You may read and perform the payment process by electronic money.

  Then, the control unit 71 transmits the contract sheet information ID in the contract sheet information selected in step S14 to the sheet management system 60, and transmits a notification that the sheet has been purchased to the contractor (step S16). In the sheet management system 60, the control unit 61 searches the contractor information stored in the database 50 for contract sheet information corresponding to the contract sheet information ID received from the sheet secondary sales system 70, and searches for the contract sheet From the information, data such as a contractor ID, a sheet name, an event name, and a date are read. Then, the contractor information stored in the database 50 is searched for the contractor information corresponding to the read contractor ID, and a predetermined number of points is added to the value of the retained points in the contractor information. Then, the e-mail address is read out from the contractor information, an e-mail including data such as the previously read sheet name, event name, and date is created and transmitted to the read e-mail address. After the mail transmission, the control unit 61 transmits a mail transmission completion notification to the seat secondary sales system 70. In addition, the usage method of the point supplied to the contractor is arbitrary. For example, if the user connects to the seat secondary sales system 70 or another computer, collates the ID and password, and then selects “Premium exchange” from the processing menu, the premium information is presented so that it can be exchanged for a desired prize. It may be.

Next, the control unit 71 determines whether the terminal from which the purchase request is transmitted is the store terminal 30 or the stadium terminal 40 (step S17). The discriminating method is arbitrary. For example, an address (for example, an IP address or the like) for identifying the store terminal 30 and the stadium terminal 40 is stored in the storage unit 72 in advance, and an address given to a purchase request from the terminal May be determined according to whether the address matches the address stored in advance in the storage unit 72.
When the purchase request source terminal is either the store terminal 30 or the stadium terminal 40 (step S17: YES), the control unit 71 includes information such as a seat ID, a seat name, an event name, and a date of the event. The ticket exchange ticket data is transmitted to the terminal and printed out on the terminal side (step S18). The method of exchanging a ticket voucher for a seat voucher is arbitrary. For example, by bringing the ticket voucher to a predetermined stadium window, the contents printed on the ticket voucher (sheet ID, event Name, date, etc.) may be exchanged for a seat ticket corresponding to the name. Further, the ticket voucher may be used as it is as a seat ticket.

  When the purchase request source terminal is neither the store terminal 30 nor the stadium terminal 40, that is, when the purchase request source terminal is the user terminal 10 (step S17: NO), the control unit 71 sets the unique reservation. A number is generated, the generated reservation number is set in the data item of “reservation number” of the contract sheet information selected as the purchase target in the database 50, and the reservation number is transmitted to the requesting terminal (step S19). ). In this case, for example, the purchaser tells the reservation number at the stadium window, and the clerk connects from the terminal installed at the window to the seat secondary sales system 70 via the network 100 and is registered in the database 50. Of the contract sheet information, the contract sheet information corresponding to the reservation number may be referred to and a seat ticket corresponding to this content (seat ID, event name, date, etc.) may be passed to the purchaser.

  In step S12, when there is no corresponding contract sheet information (step S12: NO), the control unit 71 transmits, for example, a message indicating that there is no open contract sheet to the terminal for display. Then, it ends as it is.

  In step S14, when the purchase request is not received because the end button is pressed on the terminal or the like (step S14: NO), the control unit 71 ends the process as it is.

  As described above, according to the present invention, it is possible to effectively use a contract sheet that is not used without wasting it, and to provide a profit to contractors and distributors of the contract sheet.

  Further, in the above embodiment, the sales target is an annual contract seat, but this is an example, and the present invention targets various contract seats (seats for which the contractor has the right to use for a predetermined period by contract). be able to.

Further, the configuration of the above system is an example, and for example, the sheet management system 60 and the sheet secondary sales system 70 may be realized by a single computer.
Further, the database 50 may be included in the seat management system 60 or the seat secondary sales system 70.
Moreover, you may make it print a seat ticket in an open seat sales process. Further, even if the purchase source terminal is the user terminal 10, a voucher may be printed. In this case, for example, the user may input whether or not the voucher can be printed. If the voucher can be printed, the voucher data may be transmitted. When the user terminal 10 is a mobile terminal such as a mobile phone, the voucher data is transmitted and stored, and the user displays the voucher data on the mobile terminal at the window and presents it. It may be.

The system of the present invention can be realized using a normal computer system, not a dedicated system. For example, a program for executing the above operation is stored in a computer-readable recording medium (FD, CD-ROM, DVD, etc.) and distributed, and the program is installed in the computer to execute the above processing. The user terminal 10, the store terminal 30, the stadium terminal 40, the seat management system 60, the seat secondary sales system 70, and the like may be configured. Alternatively, it may be stored in a disk device of a server device on a network such as the Internet and downloaded to a computer, for example.
In addition, when the OS realizes the above functions by sharing the OS or jointly with the OS and the application, etc., only the part other than the OS may be stored and distributed in the medium, or may be downloaded to the computer. Good.
