In the figure, this system is configured by connecting a mouse 12, a scanner 13, and a printer 14 to a display 11. The computer 10 includes an arithmetic processing device 20 and a storage device 30. The computer 10 functions as means listed in the arithmetic processing unit 20 at a predetermined timing by executing a computer program. The computer 10 reads necessary data stored in advance using the storage device 30 during execution of the computer program. Alternatively, new data is written and stored in the storage device 30.

  As shown in FIG. 1, the arithmetic processing unit 20 of the computer 10 functions as data input means 21, window display control means 22, order information processing means 23, illustration editing means 24, and estimate calculation means 25. The storage device 30 stores a data input screen 31 and reference table data 32 in advance for program control. Further, the illustration window 33, the order sheet 34, and the estimate calculation result 35 are written and stored in the storage device in the course of executing the computer program. The mouse 12 is used for inputting order information. The scanner 13 is used to read a barcode for specifying a part to be ordered. The printer 14 is used to print out the order sheet 34 and the illustration window 33.

Next, each function of each means in the arithmetic processing unit 20 will be described.
The window display control unit 22 has a function of displaying the data input screen 31. The data input screen 31 is for inputting customer information, measuring data, design selection results, and component selection results for the clothing to be ordered. The data input screen 31 will be described later with reference to FIG. The data input means 21 has a function of accepting data input through the window display control means 22 and the scanner 13.

FIG. 2 is an explanatory diagram of the data input screen 31 displayed on the display 11 of the computer 10 described in FIG.
The data input screen 31 includes various screens for the store clerk to input order information in response to customer requests. In the example of this figure, a screen for inputting customer information and measuring data, order information about jackets, vests, pants, illustrations and the like is provided. The customer information input screen 40 shown in (a) is provided with items for inputting names such as order numbers, customer names, contacts, and persons in charge. Although not shown in the drawing, various information related to the customer can be input. The window display control means 22 executes control of these windows, and the data input means 21 executes data writing to the storage device.

  (B) shows the contents of the measurement data input screen 42. Various measurement data necessary for tailoring men's clothing are input here. (C) shows the contents of the jacket data input screen 44. This screen is used to select the jacket design requested by the customer, and to select buttons and other parts to be used for the jacket. That is, the jacket data input screen 44 includes a component selection screen 45 and a design selection screen 46. Jackets, vests and pants are parts of men's clothing. Jacket buttons, pockets, bags, etc. are parts of the jacket. In the following description, these parts are collectively referred to simply as parts.

  In an existing computer system, a list of various parts is displayed on a computer display, a part desired by a customer is selected from these parts, and the result is input to the computer. On the other hand, in the system according to the present invention, the customer who sees the actual product for selection should see the actual product and input the selection information to the computer automatically. The pop-up window shown in FIG. 2C is for displaying an image of a part for confirmation every time the part is selected. The details will be described later with reference to the drawings.

FIG. 3 is a perspective view of a specific example of the sample book.
(A) is a perspective view of the sample book 61 which gathered cloth. A label is affixed to each fabric, and a sample specification 62 and a bar code 63 are entered therein. By reading the bar code 63 with the scanner 13 (FIG. 1), an identification code for specifying the fabric is input to the computer. (B) shows an example of a sample book 65 in which buttons are arranged. The button samples 66 are regularly arranged vertically and horizontally. A bar code 67 is displayed immediately next to each button sample 66. By reading the bar code 67 with the scanner 13, an identification code of a button corresponding to the computer is input.

  (C) is an example of the sample book 70 for selecting the design of a jacket, a vest, and pants. A sample image 71 is written on each page. By reading the corresponding bar code 72 with the scanner 13, an identification code of the design corresponding to the computer is input.

  When the customer's order is input to the computer as described above, it is desired to confirm whether or not the input information is correctly received by the computer. I also want to check if the combination of components I entered is appropriate. For this purpose, the order sheet 34 in which the order information is collected is printed by the printer 14 (FIG. 1), and the contents of the illustration window 33 in which the order information is imaged are simultaneously printed and output.

FIG. 4 is an explanatory diagram of a specific example of the illustration window 33.
In this illustration window 33, order information displays the images of jackets and pants arranged in a positional relationship in accordance with the actual use state. In the illustration window 33, a jacket display area 56, a best display area 57, and a pants display area 58 are set in order from the top. Jacket data 51 and its component data are displayed in the jacket display area 56. The best display area 57 displays the best data 52 and its component data. In the pant display area 58, the pant data 53 and its component data are displayed. The illustration editing means 24 executes this image drawing process.

  For example, the jacket data 51 is displayed at the center of the jacket display area 56. The image of each part, such as a jacket collar or pocket, is placed around it. Each part is displayed in a part display balloon area 59. When the jacket data 51 is selected, a part display balloon area 59 for displaying the parts of the jacket data 51 is also displayed in the jacket display area 56 as image data combined with the jacket data 51. Thereafter, when each part to be displayed in the parts display balloon area 59 is selected, the display area of each part is designated by reference table data 32 described later. That is, the display positions of the jacket collars and pockets are designated so as to be displayed in the corresponding part display balloon regions 59. As a result, as shown in FIG. 4, the image of the jacket part is concentrated and displayed at a position close to the jacket data 51. The same applies to the best data 52 and the pants data 53. The contents of various orders can be confirmed with images. A display area is designated for each part, and the image can be displayed in an easy-to-read layout.

  In the example of FIG. 4, the parts display balloon area 59 and the corresponding portion of the jacket data 51 are connected by a lead line. When the display position of the jacket data 51 and the display positions of some parts display balloon areas 59 are completely fixed from the beginning, such display can be performed. On the other hand, the necessary number of parts image display frames may be arranged around the jacket data 51 without a lead line. At that time, after the jacket data 51 is drawn, the necessary number of parts display balloon regions 59 may be drawn at a predetermined position. Further, the part display balloon area 59 may be drawn at the same time when the image data of the part is drawn. A bar code 55 may be displayed immediately above or below each part display balloon area 59. If a part display balloon area 59 is prepared for each part in advance, forgetting to select can be prevented.

  In any case, the display area may be set so that display image data of related parts is arranged in a predetermined positional relationship. As a method for setting the display area, there is a method of indicating the display position of the display image data of the component by a coordinate value. In addition, there is a method in which the display area of the parts display balloon area 59 is represented by relative position coordinates in the jacket display area 56, and the display area of the part image 73 is represented by relative position coordinates in the parts display balloon area 59. If the relative position coordinates in the part display balloon area 59 of the display image data of all the parts are uniform, only the information indicating the image data in the part display balloon area 59 from the top may be used. In any case, by placing related parts close together, the design and color balance between the parts can be confirmed. If the contents of the illustration window 33 are printed and handed over to the customer together with the order sheet 34, it is easy to compare and confirm the product with the product that has been actually tailored.

FIG. 5 is a diagram for explaining a specific operation of the computer for executing the above processing.
FIG. 9A is an operation explanatory diagram of processing for selecting a part using a computer screen. First, measurement data 81 is input. Next, design data 82 is selected using the input screen. At this time, the selection result is acquired as a product code 84 by the computer. The order information processing means 23 refers to the reference table data 32 stored in the storage device 30 of the computer and outputs the name data 87 and the estimated amount 88 from the product code 84. The name data 87 is entered in the order sheet 89. The estimated amount 88 is used for estimate calculation by the estimate calculation means 25 and the estimate data 90 is output.

  On the other hand, display image data 86 is simultaneously output from the reference table data 32. This is an image for visually confirming the appearance of the selected part. It is displayed in the parts display balloon area 59 of the illustration window 33 described above. The display image data 86 may be displayed in a pop-up window every time a part is selected, for example. As a result, the shape and color of the selected part can be confirmed on the display 11. The same applies when the component selection data 83 is selected. Based on the part code 85, display image data 86, name data 87, and estimated amount 88 are output from the reference table data 32.

  Similar processing is performed when a sample book is used. In the case of a sample book, the barcode data 75 is read by the scanner 13. This is input to the reference table data 32, and display image data 86, name data 87, and estimated amount 88 are output. The display image data 86 is displayed on a computer display using a pop-up window. This compares the part actually selected with the part displayed on the computer screen and confirms subtle differences such as color on the spot. As a result, it is possible to prevent misunderstanding that the part finally displayed in the illustration window 33 is different from the part selected by the user.

  (C) is an explanatory diagram of the order sheet 34. On the order sheet 34, customer information such as an order number and estimate data 90 are displayed. The order sheet 34 is printed together with the illustration window 33 and handed to the customer. Note that large parts such as a collar and a pocket can be displayed and confirmed using the illustration window 33. However, it is difficult to confirm clearly when using the illustration window for small parts such as buttons. In this case, it is preferable that each component is enlarged and displayed in a pop-up window. The order information processing means 23 executes the above processing.

FIG. 6 is an explanatory diagram of an enlarged display operation of components.
First, for this processing, as shown in FIG. 6A, for example, data such as identification code 101, name data 102, display image data 86, display area 104, and related products 105 are stored in the reference table data 32. Let me. The identification code 101 is code data that identifies a component. The name data 102 is, for example, character code data for displaying the name of the component in characters. The display image data 86 is bitmap data for displaying the appearance of the part as an image. The display area 104 is, for example, coordinate data for specifying a place where the display image data 86 is displayed. The related product 105 is code data of parts to be displayed in close proximity. The following processing is executed by the order information processing means 23, and display on the display is executed by the window display control means 22.

  For example, when a button is selected, the color of a fabric such as a jacket as a background becomes a problem. Therefore, the following processing is executed. In FIG. 6B, when a button barcode is input, the button identification code is notified from the reference table data 32 to the order sheet 89. From the reference table data 32, a jacket part code is returned as a response. The display image data of the jacket is acquired from the reference table data 32, but a part thereof is cut out and output as display background data 93. That is, only the ground color component of the jacket image data is acquired and rendered as the background color. The button display image data 86 is overwritten on this. In this way, the image of the button including the background can be displayed. This image is displayed in the pop-up window A as described in FIG. Thereby, the selection result can be confirmed on the screen of the computer.

  When all the order work is completed, an order sheet 34 is created. The staff and customer finally confirm the contents of the order sheet 34. In the order sheet 34, a list of selected parts is displayed. When one of the component names is clicked, the button identification code is output from the order sheet 34 toward the reference table data 32. From the reference table data 32, button display image data 86 and display background data 93 of a jacket which is a related product are output. As a result, the same image as when the button is actually selected is displayed in the pop-up window A described with reference to FIG. Since this is the second confirmation, the customer is aware of the subtle color differences when the actual item is displayed on the computer, so the confirmation can proceed smoothly. As described above, related parts can be displayed on the display at the same time, and can be effectively used for checking balance and hue.

FIG. 7 is a flowchart showing an operation of inputting order information by the computer 10.
First, at the start of order information input, in step S11, the data input means 21 displays a customer information input screen 40 on the display 11. In step S12, the customer information input screen 40 is used to accept input of customer information. Next, in step S13, the measuring data input screen 42 is displayed. In step S14, input of measuring data is accepted. In step S15, the design selection screen 46 is displayed. On this screen, for example, when a drop-down list of breast pockets is opened, several types of breast pocket images are displayed to prompt selection. Thus, in step S16, the design selection result is acquired. In step S17, a component selection screen is displayed. A list of part names is displayed in a drop-down list, and one of the parts is selected. In step S18, a component selection result is acquired. Next, for example, when a character “button” is clicked, a sample book is designated in step S19, and the scanner 13 becomes readable. In step S20, the barcode of any button of the sample book is read. As a result, the result of selecting the button is automatically input to the computer. In step S21, it is determined whether acquisition of all data has been completed. If the result of this determination is yes, the process ends. If no, the process returns to the first process.

FIG. 8 is a flowchart of the order sheet generation operation.
When the input of order information as described above is completed, this process is automatically executed. In step S31, the design selection result window is edited. In step S32, the part selection result window is edited. This process simply records the input information. In step S33, the illustration window is edited. The processing in step S33 will be specifically described with reference to FIG. In step S34, the order sheet is edited. This is the process described with reference to FIG. In step S35, an estimate calculation based on the acquired data is performed. This is entered in the order sheet 34 described with reference to FIG. In step S36, the display of the order sheet 34 is output. The contents are displayed on the display 11 and printed by the printer 14 for output.

  FIG. 9 is a flowchart of the illustration window editing operation. First, in step S41, the selected jacket data is acquired. In step S42, the selected best data is acquired. In step S43, the selected pants data is acquired. Next, in step S44, a jacket display area is set. This is processing for acquiring coordinate values such as display position coordinates. In step S45, the best display area is set. In step S46, a pants display area is set. When the above preparation is completed, jacket data is drawn in step S47. In step S48, the balloon data for the jacket part is drawn. In step S49, the best data is drawn. In step S50, the balloon data for the best part is drawn. In step S51, pants data is drawn. In step S52, the pant balloon data is drawn. After that, every time a part is selected, the drawing of the part image data is repeated in the balloon area of the part. As described above, the above system is used.

  Note that the computer program executed by the arithmetic processing unit may be modularized in units illustrated in functional blocks, or may be integrated by combining a plurality of functional blocks. Further, the above computer program may be used by being incorporated into an existing application program. The computer program for realizing the present invention can be recorded on a computer-readable recording medium such as a CD-ROM and installed in any information processing apparatus for use.
