Description

  The present invention relates to an order system for managing product orders, and more particularly, to an order system in a restaurant provided with a touch panel type order terminal.

  In the present specification, the term “provide” means any period from when the ordered dish is cooked until the dish is actually provided to the customer.

  Conventionally, in a restaurant, instead of verbally ordering menus to the clerk, a method of placing menus by providing a touch-panel order display terminal for each table or seat and operating the order display terminal Is adopted.

  When menus are ordered, the menus are provided by providing them in the order in which they are first ordered. For this reason, when a large number of orders are made at a time from a specific order display terminal, the kitchen has to concentrate on providing only the menu ordered from the order display terminal, so-called a specific order display. A monopoly of the kitchen occurs due to the order from the terminal. In this case, even if the menu is ordered from another order display terminal, the provision will be delayed, and the other order display terminal will wait for a long time until the menu provision, resulting in unfair provision of the menu. It becomes.

On the other hand, Patent Document 1 discloses a configuration in which the order quantity is limited by setting a limit on the order quantity only for a specific menu or by limiting the number of menus that can be ordered at one time.
Japanese Patent Laying-Open No. 2005-078376 (published March 24, 2005)

  However, even if the number of menu items that can be ordered at one time is limited as in Patent Document 1, a large number of orders can be made by repeating the order many times. Even if the order is limited for a specific menu or the order time is limited, a large number of orders can be made from one order display terminal. For this reason, it is impossible to prevent the monopoly of the kitchen due to an order from a specific order display terminal.

  The present invention has been made in view of the above problems, and an object thereof is to realize an order system that can effectively prevent a large number of orders from a specific order display terminal.

  In order to solve the above problems, an order system according to the present invention comprises an order display system having a plurality of order display terminals each having a display unit for displaying a menu screen and an input unit for inputting a product and quantity to be ordered. When an order is placed from one order display terminal, the planned order quantity, which is the quantity of the product ordered in the order, and the order display terminal from which the order has been placed has already been ordered and has not been provided. It is characterized by comprising order quantity management means for managing the order quantity so that the total unprovided quantity, which is the sum of the ordered unprovided quantity that is the quantity of the product, does not exceed a predetermined value.

  According to the above configuration, the user can order a desired product by operating the order display terminal. Here, when an order is made from one order display terminal, the order system is already ordered from the order display quantity which is the quantity of the product ordered in the order and the order display terminal where the order is made, An order quantity management means is provided for managing the order quantity so that the total unprovided quantity, which is the sum of the ordered unprovided quantity, which is the quantity of the unprovided item, does not exceed a predetermined value. In other words, when there is a new order from a display terminal for an order, the total of the order quantity in the new order plus the quantity of products that have already been ordered from the display terminal for the order is within a predetermined value. The order quantity is limited so that

  As a result, even if the order is placed again immediately after placing the order, the orderable quantity is reduced by the quantity of the product waiting to be provided in the order again, so a large number of orders due to repeated orders are prevented. Can do. Therefore, there is an effect that it is possible to realize an order system that can effectively prevent a large number of orders from a specific order display terminal.

  In the order system according to the present invention, the order quantity management means, the order quantity management means, if the total unprovided quantity exceeds the predetermined value, out of the products ordered in the order, the order quantity management means A configuration may be adopted in which orders exceeding the excess quantity are not accepted, or a configuration in which the order itself is not accepted when the total unprovided quantity exceeds the predetermined value.

  The order system according to the present invention preferably further comprises orderable quantity display instruction means for displaying the orderable quantity on the menu screen.

  According to said structure, the user can grasp | ascertain beforehand the quantity which can be ordered.

  By the way, the order system may be realized by hardware or may be realized by causing a computer to execute a program. Specifically, the program according to the present invention is a program that causes a computer to operate as each means having any one of the above-described configurations, and the program is recorded on a recording medium according to the present invention.

  As described above, in the order system according to the present invention, when an order is made from one order display terminal, the quantity of the items ordered in the order and the order display terminal from which the order is placed are already ordered. And an order quantity management means for managing the order quantity so that the total with the quantity of unprovided items does not exceed a predetermined value, effectively preventing a large number of orders from a display terminal for a specific order. It is possible to realize an order system that can be used.

  An embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to FIGS. In the present embodiment, an example in which the order system according to the present invention is applied to order processing in a sushi restaurant will be described.

  FIG. 2 is a block diagram showing a main configuration of the entire order system 1 according to the present embodiment. The order system 1 includes a server device 2 and a plurality of display terminals 3, which are connected to each other via a network 4. The network 4 is a communication network including a local area network (LAN) made up of Ethernet (registered trademark) or the like. The display terminal 3 is provided in the kitchen area KA and the eating and drinking area EA. In the following description, for convenience, the display terminal 3 provided in the kitchen area KA is referred to as a kitchen display terminal 3a, and the display terminal 3 provided in the eating and drinking area EA is ordered. The display terminal 3b is used.

  In the present embodiment, the server device 2 is installed in the kitchen area KA. The server device 2 may be provided in an office or the like away from the kitchen area KA. The order display terminal 3b is provided at a counter seat or a table seat in the eating and drinking area EA, and a table number of each seat is assigned to each order display terminal 3b.

  The server device 2 is a general-purpose computer having a function of creating and editing menu data to be displayed on the display terminal 3 and a function of managing the order processing status of the kitchen display terminal 3a and the order display terminal 3b. . The server device 2 may be a dedicated computer having the above functions.

  The display terminal 3 is a display device including a touch panel including an arithmetic processing unit such as a CPU, and is a dedicated computer that realizes a specific operation function and display function based on the menu data created in the server device 2. . On the kitchen display terminal 3a, a list showing the order status from each of the order display terminals 3b is displayed, so that the person in charge can grasp the food to be provided. A menu video or the like is displayed on the order display terminal 3b, and a customer at the sushi restaurant can order a desired menu by touching the order display terminal 3b.

  Then, the structure of the server apparatus 2 and the display terminal 3 is demonstrated.

  FIG. 1 is a block diagram showing the configuration of the server device 2. The server device 2 includes a communication processing unit 21, an operation receiving unit 22, a menu data creation / editing unit 23, a menu data storage unit 24, an order quantity management unit 25, and an orderable quantity display instruction unit 26.

  The communication processing unit 21 displays the kitchen display terminal 3a (hereinafter, the kitchen display terminal is displayed as KT as necessary) and the order display terminal 3b (hereinafter, the order display terminal is displayed as OT as necessary). ) To communicate with. The operation reception unit 22 is configured by, for example, an input key for receiving a user operation. The menu data creating / editing unit 23, based on the operation received by the operation receiving unit 22, KT menu data for displaying on the kitchen display terminal 3a and OT for displaying on the order display terminal 3b. Create / edit menu data. The menu data is stored in the menu data storage unit 24 and transferred to the kitchen display terminal 3a and the order display terminal 3b via the network 4. The menu data may be transferred using a CF card or the like.

  The order quantity management unit 25 has a function of limiting orders so that the total number of orders from one order display terminal 3b is within a predetermined value. The order quantity storage unit 251 and the upper limit value storage unit 252 , A comparison unit 253 and a selection cancellation unit 254 are provided. Details of these functional blocks will be described later.

  FIG. 3 is a block diagram illustrating a configuration of the display terminal 3, and the display terminal 3 includes a communication processing unit 31, a display 32, a touch panel 33, a storage unit 34, and an HMI processing unit 35. The communication processing unit 31 is an interface for communicating with the server device 2. As the display 32, a flat display such as a liquid crystal display, an EL display, or a plasma display is preferably used in order to make the display terminal 3 thin. The touch panel 33 is an input device provided for performing touch input on the display screen of the display 32.

  The storage unit 34 is a memory that stores the menu data transferred from the server device 2. More specifically, KT menu data is stored in the storage unit 34 of the kitchen display terminal 3a, and OT menu data is stored in the storage unit 34 of the order display terminal 3b. The HMI processing unit 35 displays an image on the display 32 based on the menu data stored in the storage unit 34 or performs a predetermined ordering process based on an operation via the touch panel 33.

  FIG. 4 is a diagram illustrating an example of an order list screen displayed on the kitchen display terminal 3a. The order list screen displays the time at which the order was received, the type of menu, the quantity, and the table number of the seat where the order display terminal 3b for which the order was placed is provided. A “consume” button is provided.

  When the order is confirmed on the order display terminal 3b, the order contents are displayed in real time on the order list screen. The order list screen of FIG. 4 is ordered at 11:41 from the order display terminal 3b of table number 5 for 1 plate of “shrimp” and 3 plates of “tai”, and at 11:42 for display of the order of table number 8. This shows that two dishes of “Hamamachi” are ordered from the terminal 3b.

  As a general rule, the person in charge of provision provides the menu from the menu with the earlier order time. When the provision of the menu is completed, the person in charge touches the “consumption” button corresponding to the menu for which provision has been completed. As a result, the menu that has been provided is deleted from the order list screen.

  Here, if a large number of orders can be made from one order display terminal 3b, it takes time to provide the menu ordered from the order display terminal 3b, so immediately after that, from another order display terminal 3b. Even if you place an order, you will have to wait for a long time before offering the menu. Further, even if there is a limit on the order quantity in one order, a large number of orders can be made from one order display terminal 3b by repeatedly performing the ordering operation.

  Therefore, in the order system 1 according to the present embodiment, when an order is made from one order display terminal 3b, the quantity of the menu ordered in the order and the order display terminal 3b have already been ordered and are not provided. The order quantity is limited so that the total with the menu quantity does not exceed a predetermined value. In the case where the predetermined value is 10 dishes, the upper limit in one order from one order display terminal 3b is not limited to 10 dishes, but, for example, an order of 7 dishes has already been ordered from one order display terminal 3b. And if they are not provided, the quantity that can be ordered additionally is limited to 3 dishes.

  This restriction function is realized by the order quantity management unit 25 of the server device 2 shown in FIG. Next, the configuration of the order quantity management unit 25 will be described.

  The order quantity management unit 25 includes an order quantity storage unit 251, an upper limit storage unit 252, a comparison unit 253, and a selection cancellation unit 254. The order quantity storage unit 251 stores the order quantity from each order display terminal 3b in a table as shown in FIG. The “total unprovided quantity” in the table is an ordered unprovided quantity, which is the quantity of the menu that has been ordered from the order display terminal 3b of the corresponding table number, and the planned order quantity before order confirmation. This is the sum of a certain planned quantity. That is, even before the order is confirmed, when the menu quantity is selected on the menu quantity selection screen of the order display terminal 3b, the quantity is stored in the order quantity storage unit 251 as the planned order quantity.

  The upper limit storage unit 252 stores the upper limit of the quantity of menus that are ordered from one order display terminal 3b and that are not provided (hereinafter “unprovided quantity”). In the present embodiment, the upper limit value is “10”. The upper limit value can be arbitrarily set by an operation from the operation receiving unit 22.

  The comparison unit 253 compares the unprovided quantity of each table number stored in the order quantity storage unit 251 with the upper limit value stored in the upper limit value storage unit 252. When an order in which the unprovided quantity exceeds the upper limit value is made on a certain order display terminal 3b, the selection cancellation unit 254 can prevent the order from being accepted based on the comparison result in the comparison unit 253.

  Further, the orderable quantity display instruction unit 26 calculates the upper limit value stored in the upper limit value storage unit 252 and the unprovided quantity of each table number stored in the order quantity storage unit 251 based on the comparison result in the comparison unit 253. The difference is displayed on the order display terminal 3b corresponding to each table number. Thereby, the customer can grasp in advance the quantity that can be ordered.

  FIG. 6 is a flowchart showing order processing in the order system 1. When an order operation is performed at a certain order display terminal 3b (step S1), the order quantity storage unit 251 adds the planned order quantity to the ordered unprovided quantity to calculate the total unprovided quantity (step S2). Subsequently, the comparison unit 253 compares the total unprovided quantity with the upper limit value stored in the upper limit value storage unit 252, and determines whether the total unprovided quantity exceeds the upper limit value (step S3).

  As a result, if the total unprovided quantity exceeds the upper limit value (YES in step S3), the selection canceling unit 254 cancels the menu selection in the order and stops accepting the order (step S4), and displays the order. A message indicating that the order cannot be made is displayed on the terminal 3b (step S5). As a result, in the table stored in the order quantity storage unit 251, the planned order quantity in the order operation is subtracted from the total unprovided quantity (step S6).

  On the other hand, if the total unprovided quantity is within the upper limit (NO in step S3), the order is continued as it is, the order is determined as the total unprovided quantity becomes the ordered unprovided quantity (step S7), The ordered menu is displayed on the order list screen of the display terminal 3a (step S8). Thereafter, a menu is provided (step S9), and when the provided menu is erased from the order list screen of the kitchen display terminal 3a (step S10), the provided quantity is subtracted from the unprovided quantity (step 11). ).

  Next, order processing in the order system 1 will be described based on screens displayed on the kitchen display terminal 3a and the order display terminal 3b. In the following description, the order display terminal 3b provided in the seat of the table number 1 will be described as an example.

  When a new customer touches the opening screen of the order display terminal 3b, a genre selection screen shown in FIG. 7 is displayed. Here, for example, when “nigiri” is selected, a menu selection screen for displaying a menu of nigiri together with images as shown in FIG. 8 is displayed.

  The menu selection screen displays a menu display field A1 in which the type and image of each menu are displayed, and a selection menu list A2 in which the selected menu and quantity are displayed. Here, when “Hachimachi” is touched from the menu display column A1, a menu quantity input screen shown in FIG. 9 is displayed. An enlarged image of the selected menu is displayed on the menu quantity input screen, and a button A3 for selecting the menu quantity is displayed.

  Further, on the menu quantity input screen, the orderable quantity display instruction unit 26 of the server apparatus 2 shown in FIG. In the present embodiment, since the upper limit value of the unprovided quantity is limited to “10”, the menu quantity input screen shown in FIG. 9 displays that up to 10 dishes can be ordered. Here, when placing an order for three dishes, selecting “3” from the button A3 and touching “OK” will return to the menu selection screen as shown in FIG. 10, and the selected menu will be displayed in the selection menu list A2. A certain “Hamachi” and “3” of the selected quantity are displayed.

  Since the order has not been confirmed at this time, the selected menu is not displayed on the kitchen display terminal 3a. On the other hand, the selected quantity is transmitted to the order quantity storage unit 251 of the server apparatus 2 shown in FIG. Prior to transmission, the total unprovided quantity is 0, and the planned order quantity “3” is within the upper limit value, so the planned order quantity is directly the ordered unprovided quantity and the total unprovided quantity. Therefore, as shown in FIG. 11, in the table stored in the order quantity storage unit 251, the total unprovided quantity in the table number 1 is “3”. Since the total unprovided quantity at this time is within the upper limit value, the ordering operation can be continued.

  Subsequently, when ordering “shrimp”, if “shrimp” is touched from the menu display field A1 on the menu selection screen shown in FIG. 10, as shown in FIG. It is displayed that it is possible. Here, when ordering 4 dishes, when “4” is selected from the button A3 and “OK” is touched, the selected menu “A” is displayed in the selection menu list A2 on the menu selection screen as shown in FIG. “Ebi” and the selected quantity “4” are displayed.

  At this time, as shown in FIG. 14, in the table stored in the order quantity storage unit 251 of the server apparatus 2, the total unprovided quantity in the table number 1 is “7”. Since the total unprovided quantity “7” is within the upper limit value, the total unprovided quantity in the table number 1 is “7” in the table stored in the order quantity storage unit 251.

  Furthermore, when “Toro” is touched from the menu display field A1 on the menu selection screen shown in FIG. 13, as shown in FIG. 15, the menu quantity input screen displays that up to three more dishes can be ordered. Here, when “5” is selected from the button A3 and “OK” is touched, the table stored in the order quantity storage unit 251 of the server device 2 as shown in FIG. The quantity is “12”. At this time, since the total unprovided quantity exceeds the upper limit value “10” stored in the upper limit value storage unit 252 shown in FIG. 1, the selection cancellation unit 254 displays an order restriction confirmation screen as shown in FIG. Is displayed on the order display terminal 3b. Touching “Return” on the order restriction confirmation screen returns to the menu selection screen shown in FIG. 13 and cancels the selection of “Toro”.

  Instead of canceling only the selection of “Toro”, the screen returns to the genre selection screen shown in FIG. 7 and cancels not only the selection of “Toro” but also the selection of “Hamachi” and “Shrimp” which are other planned items to be ordered. It is good also as a structure.

  Moreover, it is good also as a structure which does not accept the order for the quantity in which the total unprovided quantity exceeded the upper limit. That is, in this embodiment, since the total unprovided quantity is “12” with respect to the upper limit value “10”, the excess quantity “2” is subtracted from the planned order quantity of “Toro” to automatically In addition, the planned order quantity of “Toro” may be set to 3 dishes which are orderable quantities.

  When “Order a menu” is touched on the menu selection screen shown in FIG. 13, the orders of “Hachi” and “Shrimp” are confirmed, and as shown in FIG. 18, the order list screen of the kitchen display terminal 3a is displayed. , The order contents are added. After confirming the order, the screen returns to the genre selection screen shown in FIG.

  Here, in the conventional order system, only the orderable quantity in one order is limited. Therefore, even before the menu is provided, up to 10 dishes can be ordered in the next order operation. I was able to. On the other hand, in the order system 1 according to the present embodiment, in order to prevent monopoly of the kitchen due to an order from a specific order display terminal, the orderable quantity in the next order operation according to the quantity of the unprovided menu Is set, and the sum of the quantity of menus in one order and the quantity of menus already ordered and not provided is limited to 10 dishes.

  For example, immediately after confirming the order on the menu selection screen shown in FIG. 13, when the order operation is performed again from the order display terminal 3b and “Toro” is selected on the menu selection screen, as shown in FIG. On the quantity input screen, it is displayed that the orderable quantity is 3 dishes. Here, even if “5” is selected from the button A3 and “OK” is touched, an order restriction confirmation screen as shown in FIG. 20 is displayed, and the selection of “Toro” is canceled.

  Thereafter, the provision of the three dishes of “Hachimachi” is completed in the kitchen, and when the “Disappear” button corresponding to the display of “Hamachi” is touched on the order list screen of the kitchen display terminal 3a, as shown in FIG. The display of “Hamachi” is deleted from the order list screen. At this time, since the four dishes of “shrimp” are not provided, the table stored in the order quantity storage unit 251 shows the total unprovided quantity (ordered unprovided number) in the table number 1 as shown in FIG. “4”. At this time, the quantity that can be ordered from the order display terminal 3b is 6 dishes, and 6 is displayed as the orderable quantity on the order display terminal 3b.

  As described above, by applying the order system 1 according to the present embodiment, it is possible to effectively prevent a large number of orders from a specific order display terminal that has been conventionally possible by repeatedly placing an order. .

  Each block of the server device 2, in particular, the selection cancellation unit 254 and the order quantity display instruction unit 26 may be configured by hardware logic, or may be realized by software using a CPU as follows. Good.

  That is, the server device 2 includes a CPU (central processing unit) that executes instructions of a control program that realizes each function, a ROM (read only memory) that stores the program, a RAM (random access memory) that expands the program, A storage device (recording medium) such as a memory for storing the program and various data is provided.
