Description

  The present invention relates to a data processing apparatus for simulating a merchandise display form of a plurality of types of sales merchandise stored in a merchandise display system, a computer program for the data processing apparatus, and a data processing method.

  At present, cigarette sales stores such as so-called convenience stores sell cigarette packs as display sales products, for example. The cigarette pack referred to here means a display and sale product in which a plurality of cigarettes that are actually smoked are contained in a rectangular parallelepiped package.

  Therefore, a product display system for displaying cigarette packs includes, for example, a plurality of magazine units and one system frame. The magazine unit is formed of, for example, a colorless and transparent resin in a box shape having an upper surface opening that is elongated in the front-rear direction. The magazine unit is accommodated from above in a state where the standing tobacco packs are arranged in the front-rear direction.

  The system frame holds a plurality of magazine units arranged vertically and horizontally. For this reason, the conventional product display system can display cigarette packs arranged vertically and horizontally.

  An attractive sales floor is an important factor in promoting the sale of products such as cigarette packs. When considering the construction of a sales floor, it is necessary to consider various factors, but in particular, the size of the place where goods are displayed is an important factor.

  In the past, vast sales floors such as shopping malls and mass retailers have been mainstream as sales floors for products. However, in recent years, narrow sales floors such as convenience stores have greatly increased due to changes in distribution form.

  In such a narrow sales floor, the most important theme in the sales strategy is how to obtain the maximum customer appeal in a limited space. However, in the past, in such a narrow sales floor, the construction of a sales floor where an excellent customer appeal effect can be obtained has not been sufficiently studied. In addition, there are many standard product display systems installed in tobacco sales stores, and there is a limit to how to devise sales floors.

In particular, in small tobacco stores such as convenience stores, it is necessary to secure a sales space to install the product display system, and it is required to complete the installation work in a short time. There were few examples of product display systems developed from the standpoint of contributing to sales floor construction.

First, in the cigarette display system 1000 of the present embodiment, for example, four types of frame units 300, four types of tray units 200, two types of magazine units 100, and the like can be freely combined as desired.

  For this reason, the cigarette display system 1000 of this Embodiment can be made into the external shape corresponding to the space to install, and can utilize space effectively. In particular, since there are the narrow frame units 300 that hold the cigarette packs TP in three rows and the wide frame units 300 that hold the cigarette packs TP in five rows, it is possible to cope with the left and right dimensions of the installation space.

  Furthermore, since there are the tall frame unit 300 that holds the cigarette pack TP in three rows and the tall frame unit 300 that holds the cigarette pack TP in two rows, the vertical dimension of the installation space can be handled well.

  As described above, when the cigarette display system 1000 is independently constructed at the tobacco sales store, the display housing structure DIS, the product holding position PKS, and the like of the cigarette display system 1000 are registered in the data processing device 800 as display system data.

  The present applicant has invented a data processing device 800 that simulates and supports the construction of the cigarette display system 1000 as described above. Japanese Patent Application Nos. 2007-053718, 2007-053719, 2007 -053725 and Japanese Patent Application No. 2007-053726.

  When the formation and data registration of the cigarette display system 1000 are completed as described above, the cigarette pack TP, the brick pack BP, and the cigarette carton TK are displayed and sold there.

  However, since the cigarette display system 1000 is uniquely constructed for each tobacco sales store as described above, it is not easy to optimally display the cigarette pack TP, the brick pack BP, and the cigarette carton TK.

  In particular, in order to minimize the defective stock, it is preferable to maximize the rotation rate of a plurality of types of cigarette packs TP displayed and sold in the cigarette display system 1000. For this purpose, the tobacco sales store may change the product display form PDF such as the cigarette pack TP and the cigarette carton TK in the cigarette display system 1000.

  In such a case, in the data processing device 800 of the present embodiment, the product display form PDF such as the cigarette pack TP in the cigarette display system 1000 having various structures as described above, the pack price data PMD of the cigarette pack TP, etc. And the product sales order TSR such as the cigarette pack TP and the position sales order PSR in the cigarette display system 1000 can be simulated.

  In this case, as shown in FIG. 11, when a display form generation simulation program is activated by a predetermined operation of the data processing device 800 (step S1-Y), various data such as a system front image SFG and pack amount data PMD are stored. Read (step S2).

  Then, as shown in FIG. 5, a system front image SFG is displayed and output as an initial screen (step S3). At this time, the system front image SFG also displays and outputs position identification data SID for each of the product holding positions PKS.

  In this state, when the product sales order TSR for each sales product type such as the cigarette pack TP, cigarette carton TK, and brick pack BP is acquired (step S4-Y), for example, as shown in FIG. The merchandise sales order TSR is displayed as a list as a pack face image PFG on the left side of the system front image SFG (step S5).

  Similarly, when the position sales rank PSR for each product holding position PKS of the cigarette pack TP, cigarette carton TK, and brick pack BP is acquired (step S6-Y), this position sales rank PSR is also displayed as a list with position identification data SID. (Step S7).

  The above-mentioned merchandise sales order TSR and position sales order PSR may be input in real time to the data processing device 800 with the survey data that has been aggregated by the operator in advance. For example, the POS system ( (Not shown) may be acquired by the data processing apparatus 800. With the image display state as described above, the operator confirms the product sales order TSR and the position sales order PSR at a glance together with the system front image SFG.

  In such a state, the data processing device 800 sets the corresponding relationship condition CRR between the merchandise sales order TSR and the position sales order PSR corresponding to the pack price data PMD, the carton price data KMD, and the brick price data BMD. It is generated according to the conditions and processing algorithm (step S8).

  For example, the product sales rank TSR and the pack price data PMD are multiplied for each brand of the cigarette pack TP. The multiplication result for each cigarette pack TP and the position sales rank PSR of the cigarette pack TP are associated with each other in order by a predetermined number, and this is set as the correspondence condition CRR of the cigarette pack TP.

  Similarly, when the corresponding relationship condition CRR is also generated in the cigarette carton TK and the brick pack BP, as shown in FIG. 7, this corresponds to the pack face image PFG of the product sales order TSR and the position identification data SID of the position sales order PSR. Are displayed and output as the corresponding relationship condition CRR (step S9).

  For this reason, the worker confirms the correspondence condition CRR automatically set in the product sales order TSR and the position sales order PSR corresponding to the pack price data PMD or the like on the display image.

  Then, a product display form PDF for displaying the cigarette pack TP and the like on the cigarette display system 1000 is generated based on the corresponding relationship condition CRR generated in this way (step S10).

  In this merchandise display form PDF, for example, for each merchandise holding position PKS, the position sales rank PSR, merchandise sales rank TSR, pack amount data PMD, and the like are set.

  Therefore, the predicted position amount PFM is calculated for each product holding position PKS based on the position sales order PSR, the product sales order TSR, the pack amount data PMD, and the like using predetermined setting conditions and predetermined calculation processing (step S11).

  For example, the number of cigarettes sold in one month at the product holding position PKS is multiplied by the pack amount data PMD of the corresponding cigarette pack TP, and this is used as the estimated position amount PFM for each product holding position PKS.

  At this time, the number of cigarettes sold in one month at the product holding position PKS may be corrected by a predetermined coefficient or the like based on the number of cigarettes sold in one month for each brand of the corresponding cigarette pack TP. .

  The predicted position amount PFM calculated in this way is displayed and output for each product holding position PKS of the system front image SFG, as shown in FIG. 8 (step S12). For this reason, the operator confirms the estimated position amount PFM for each product holding position PKS of the cigarette display system 1000 from the display image.

  Next, the data processing apparatus 800 calculates the system expected amount SFM by summing up the estimated position amounts PFM calculated for each of the plurality of product holding positions PKS as described above (step S13).

  The predicted system amount SFM calculated in this way is displayed and output, for example, at the bottom of the system front image SFG as shown in FIG. 9 (step S14). For this reason, the worker confirms at a glance the expected amount of money in the next month in the cigarette display system 1000 using the automatically generated product display form PDF.

  Note that the above-described pack amount data PMD, system expected amount SFM, and the like may be sales amounts such as back sales data and system predicted sales, or may be actual amounts such as pack actual data and system expected actual.

  Further, as described above, the predicted position amount PFM is displayed and output for each product holding position PKS of the system front image SFG, and the predicted system amount SFM is displayed and output on the lower part of the system front image SFG (step S12). ~ S14), for example, when display display is requested by a predetermined operation (step S15-Y), as shown in FIG. 10, a pack face image PFG or the like is arranged at the product holding position PKS of the system front image SFG. Displayed and output (step S16).

  For this reason, the operator confirms the product display form PDF generated so as to maximize the system expected amount SFM with a display image. Then, the worker who has acquired the product display form PDF in this way ends the display form generation simulation program by, for example, printing out the product display form PDF or registering data (not shown). (Steps S17 and S18).

  In data processing apparatus 800 of the present embodiment, display of cigarette display system 1000 that arranges and displays a predetermined number of cigarette packs TP and the like in the vertical and horizontal directions at the product holding position PKS and accommodates the predetermined number in the front-rear direction. The structure storage unit 810 stores the housing structure DIS together with at least the system front image SFG.

  Further, the product storage unit 820 stores at least the pack face image PFG and the like together with the pack amount data PMD for each cigarette pack TP and the like arranged at the product holding position PKS of the system front image SFG.

  In this state, the product ranking unit 830 acquires the product sales ranking TSR for each sales product type such as the cigarette pack TP, and the number of products sold in a predetermined period for each product holding position PKS such as the cigarette pack TP. The position ranking unit 840 acquires the ranking PSR.

  Then, the condition generation unit 850 generates a correspondence condition CRR between the merchandise sales order TSR and the position sales order PSR corresponding to the pack price data PMD and the like. The display generation unit 860 generates a product display form PDF for displaying the cigarette pack TP and the like on the cigarette display system 1000 based on the corresponding relationship condition CRR between the generated product sales order TSR and the position sales order PSR.

  Corresponding to the product display form PDF, the forecast calculation unit 870 calculates the predicted position amount PFM by multiplying the number of products sold and the pack amount data PMD for each product holding position PKS. The predicted display unit 880 displays and outputs the calculated predicted position amount PFM for each product holding position PKS of the system front image SFG.

  For this reason, in the product display form PDF generated based on the correspondence condition CRR between the product sales order TSR and the position sales order PSR corresponding to the pack price data PMD, etc., the product sales quantity and the pack price data PMD for each product holding position PKS. The estimated position amount PFM obtained by multiplying the above is calculated and displayed. Therefore, the operator can confirm the estimated position amount PFM at a glance with the display image for each commodity holding position PKS.

  Further, the predicted position calculation amount PFM calculated for each commodity holding position PKS is totaled by the prediction calculation unit 870 to calculate the system predicted amount SFM, and the calculated system predicted amount SFM is also displayed on the prediction display unit 880. Therefore, the operator can confirm at a glance the system expected amount SFM of the entire cigarette display system 1000 from the display image.

  Further, the condition generation unit 850 generates a correspondence condition CRR that maximizes the expected system amount SFM from the product sales order TSR, the position sales order PSR, the pack amount data PMD, the carton amount data KMD, and the brick amount data BMD.

  Therefore, a product display form PDF in which the system expected amount SFM is expected to be maximized can be automatically generated from the past product sales order TSR and the past position sales order PSR together with the pack price data PMD and the like.

  For this reason, it is expected to easily maximize the product sales and the product sales profit of the entire cigarette display system 1000. However, the product display form PDF automatically generated in this way arranges the cigarette pack TP and the like at the product holding position PKS based on the past results.

  However, there may be a special reason for the past results. For example, there are cigarette packs TP whose product sales order TSR varies depending on the product holding position PKS. There are cigarette packs TP that do not change.

  Still, when a cigarette pack TP or the like is sold in the product display form PDF generated by the data processing device 800, the product sales ranking TSR and the position sales ranking PSR can also be collected and fed back to the data processing device 800. .

  Then, by repeating this feedback, as described above, whether or not the product sales rank TSR depends on the product holding position PKS is automatically incorporated in the generation of the product display form PDF. For this reason, the product display form PDF is refined sequentially and finally approximates the best solution.

  Even if sales of some cigarette packs TP end or sales of new cigarette packs TP start in the middle, the data processing device 800 collects data on the product sales rank TSR and position sales rank PSR without any problem. Can provide feedback. For this reason, an effective product display form PDF can be easily acquired by the data processing device 800.

  Moreover, the data processing device 800 of the present embodiment displays and outputs the acquired product sales order TSR and position sales order PSR together with the generated corresponding relationship condition CRR. For this reason, the operator can confirm the generated correspondence relationship CRR at a glance from the display image.

  The present invention is not limited to the present embodiment, and various modifications are allowed without departing from the scope of the present invention. For example, in the above embodiment, the correspondence condition CRR is generated corresponding to the pack price data PMD and the like, the merchandise sales order TSR, and the position sales order PSR.

  Further, in the above embodiment, the pack face image PFG, the carton face image KFG, the carton end face image KEG, and the brick face image BFG are displayed in a list with the acquired product sales order TSR, and the position identification data with the acquired position sales order PSR. An example is shown in which SIDs are displayed as a list, and the corresponding relationship condition CRR is set for them.

  However, the acquired position sales order PSR is displayed and output at the product holding position PKS of the system front image SFG, and the pack face image PFG displayed as a list with the product sales order TSR and the position holding order PSR are displayed and output. Correspondence relation condition CRR may be set to position PKS (not shown). In this case, the operator can two-dimensionally confirm the product sales order TSR for each product holding position PKS in the system front image SFG.

  Further, in the above embodiment, only the product display form PDF is generated by the correspondence condition CRR between the product sales order TSR and the position sales order PSR. However, the product display form PDF generated based on the corresponding relationship condition CRR may be corrected by the display correction condition (not shown). In such a data processing device (not shown), the product sales rank TSR and the position sales rank PSR may be corrected according to the display correction condition.

  For example, when the one-to-one correspondence condition CRR is set between the cigarette pack TP and the product holding position PKS as described above, in the product display form PDF, the cigarette pack TP is in an unordered state as shown in FIG. Will be arranged.

  Therefore, by causing the cigarette pack TP to execute a majority vote for each group of product holding positions PKS in such a product display form PDF, as shown in FIG. 12, the product display form PDF has a group of product holding positions PKS. One type of cigarette pack TP or the like is corrected to be arranged.

  In this case, the system expected amount SFM, the actual system sales amount, and the system profit amount may decrease. However, the product display form PDF in the cigarette display system 1000 can be corrected beautifully. Therefore, it is possible to expect an increase in the actual system sales amount and the system profit amount due to this.

  As such display correction conditions, for example, as shown in FIG. 13, one product holding position PKS is set in advance for each group, and a corresponding relationship condition CRR is set one-on-one with the cigarette pack TP or the like. May be.

  Further, in the above form, as shown in FIG. 10, in the state where the commodity display form PDF in which the pack face image PFG and the like are arranged in the system front image SFG is displayed and output, the estimated position amount PFM for each commodity holding position PKS is Assuming no display output.

  However, in the product display form PDF in which the pack face image PFG and the like are arranged in the system front image SFG, the estimated position amount PFM for each product holding position PKS may be displayed and output.

  Furthermore, the product display form PDF in which the pack face image PFG and the like are arranged on the system front image SFG, and as shown in FIG. 14, the estimated position amount PFM for each product holding position PKS is displayed in a pseudo three-dimensional graph or the like. It may be output.

  In this case, although it is difficult to accurately grasp the estimated position amount PFM, it is possible to intuitively grasp the estimated position amount PFM for each product holding position PKS for each pack face image PFG or the like from the display image.

  Moreover, in the said form, the data processing apparatus 800 illustrated only outputting and displaying the acquired goods sales order TSR and position sales order PSR with the produced | generated corresponding relationship condition CRR.

  However, the data processing device 800 may include a condition input unit that receives an input operation for editing the correspondence condition CRR displayed and output in this manner (not shown). In this case, the operator can correct the correspondence condition CRR automatically generated by the data processing device 800 as desired.

  Needless to say, the above-described embodiment and a plurality of modifications can be combined within a range in which the contents do not conflict with each other. Further, in the above-described embodiments and modifications, the structure of each part has been specifically described, but the structure and the like can be changed in various ways within a range that satisfies the present invention.
