Description

  The present invention relates to a delivery point grant method, a program, and a storage medium in the delivery industry.

  In response to growing global environmental awareness, a modal shift is being promoted from trucks, which have been the main delivery means in the delivery industry, to ships and railroads that can be transported in large quantities in an environmentally friendly manner. However, in order to promote a modal shift to ships and railways that can be transported in large quantities, it was necessary to increase the loading rate from the viewpoint of delivery costs.

  Conventionally, when a user who uses a courier company requests a delivery item from the courier company, the delivery date and afternoon It only provided requests for delivery, etc., and the delivery method was left to the courier. As for the arrival date of a delivery item, even if a user who requests delivery is informed that the delivery company arrives at the delivery destination after 2 days (requires more than 2 days), there may be no problem. . In this case, even if it takes more time than the shortest possible arrival date, the user deliberately selects a ship or rail delivery method that has a low environmental impact, and points in the form of eco-points that can be used to discount delivery charges. If it is given, it can be recognized that the benefits are great for the user and that the user himself contributes to the reduction of the environmental load.

  On the other hand, if the user chooses as a delivery means by giving the user special points according to the loading rate so that the loading rate of ships and railways that can be transported in large quantities can be increased, the transportation cost will be This contributes to a reduction in environmental load and can contribute to a reduction in environmental load.

  As a conventional point delivery service in the home delivery industry, a point service system has been proposed in which service points are given according to the size of a package to be delivered and a discount service can be provided according to the number of points acquired (for example, , See Patent Document 1). Further, as a technique for increasing the loading rate, a method for increasing the loading rate by using the assigned points has been proposed (for example, see Patent Document 2).

(Processing flowchart)
FIG. 20 is a sequence diagram showing an outline of processing in the home delivery point service system 1 according to the present embodiment. First, the WEB server 13 creates an authentication screen 2701 as shown in FIG. 27 (step S2001) and performs control to display it on the user terminal 16. The WEB server 13 receives an authentication request including the user ID and password input from the user terminal 16 from the user terminal 16 (step S2002). The WEB server 13 transmits the accepted authentication request to the user management server 14 (step S2003).

  The user management server 14 performs an authentication process (step S2004), and transmits an authentication result to the WEB server 13 (step S2005).

  The WEB server 13 that has received the authentication result creates a delivery request screen (input screen) 2801 for a delivery as shown in FIG. 28 and performs control to display it on the user terminal 16 (step S2006). Details of the processes related to authentication shown in steps S2001 to S2006 and the delivery request screen creation process for a delivery created after the authentication process will be described later with reference to FIG. Next, the WEB server 13 receives from the user terminal 16 a processing request including information indicating the delivery source address, the delivery destination address, the scheduled delivery request date and time, and the weight of the delivery item input at the user terminal 16 (step S2007). The WEB server 13 transmits the accepted processing request to the AP server 12 (step S2008).

  The AP server 12 that has received the processing request transmits a request for processing requested data to the DB server 11 (step S2009), and receives the requested data from the DB server 11 (step S2010). Further, the AP server 12 calculates an eco point for each delivery means (step S2011), receives the result (loading rate of the delivery means) retrieved by the aggregation server 15 (step S2012, step S2013), and A special point d corresponding to the loading rate is calculated (step S2011), and the eco point and the special point calculation result are transmitted to the WEB server 13 (step S2014).

  FIG. 21 is a flowchart showing details of the processing related to authentication shown in steps S2001 to S2006 of FIG. 20 and the delivery request screen creation processing of the delivery created after the authentication processing according to the present embodiment. First, the WEB server 13 creates a user authentication screen 2701 having a user ID 2702, a password 2703 input field, a send button 2704, and a cancel button 2705 as shown in FIG. S2101). Next, the WEB server 13 acquires authentication information (user ID, password) from the user terminal 16, and transmits an authentication request including the user ID and password to the user management server 14 (step S2102).

  The user management server 14 searches the authentication table 505 to see if there is a record that matches the received user ID and password (step S2103), and determines whether or not the authentication is OK (authentication success) from the presence or absence of the matching record. (Step S2104). As a result of authentication in step S2104, in the case of authentication OK, the user management server 14 extracts the accumulated points of the corresponding user ID from the member point table 506 (step S2105). Next, the user management server 14 transmits an authentication result (authentication OK) and information indicating the accumulated points of the user ID to the WEB server 13 (step S2106).

  The WEB server 13 sends a delivery request for a delivery item having a delivery source address 2802, a delivery destination address 2803, a delivery item weight 2804, a delivery request scheduled date and time 2805, a send button 2806, and a cancel button 2807 as shown in FIG. A screen (input screen) 2801 is created and displayed on the user terminal 16 together with the accumulated point information of the user received in step S2106 (FIG. 21) (step S2107). On the other hand, if authentication fails in step S2104, the user management server 14 transmits the authentication result (authentication NG) to the WEB server 13 (step S2109). Next, the WEB server 13 creates a message screen for requesting re-input of authentication information, and performs control to display it on the user terminal 16 (step S2108).

  22 to 26 are flowcharts showing details of processing related to the calculation of eco points and special points shown in steps S2009 to S2011 and step S2014 in FIG. First, the AP server 12 obtains a delivery source address 2802, a delivery destination address 8903, a weight of delivery 2804, and a scheduled delivery request date 2805 from the processing request from the WEB server 13 (step S2201). Next, the AP server 12 acquires the delivery source base code 70 and the delivery destination base code 701 from the base table 204 of the DB server 11 based on the delivery source address 2802 and the delivery destination address 2803 (step S2202). The AP server 12 acquires a delivery distance 803 between the delivery source site and the delivery destination site from the inter-site distance table 205 of the DB server 11 based on the delivery source site code 701 and the delivery destination site code 701 (step S2203). . Further, the AP server 12 determines that the delivery means code 903 and the delivery means code 903 between the delivery source base and the delivery destination base from the delivery means table 206 of the DB server 11 based on the delivery source base code 701 and the delivery destination base 701. If there are a plurality of items, a standard flag 905 indicating whether or not the reference point delivery means for calculating the eco points is obtained (step S2204). Next, the AP server 12 obtains the delivery cost 1004 and the delivery standard time 1005 from the base cost standard delivery time table 207 of the DB server 11 based on the delivery source base code 701, the delivery destination base code 701, and the delivery means code 903. Obtain (step S2205). Based on the estimated delivery request time 2805 acquired in step S2201 and the standard delivery time 1005 acquired in step S2205, the AP server 12 sets the estimated delivery completion time for each delivery means as (estimated delivery completion time = scheduled delivery request time). 2805 + standard delivery time 1005) (step S2206).

  Next, the AP server 12 determines whether or not there are a plurality of delivery means codes 903 acquired in step S2204 (FIG. 23, step S2301). If there are no delivery means codes 903, the process of step S2603 is performed. On the other hand, when there are a plurality of delivery means codes 903, the process of step S2302 is performed. In step S2302, the AP server 12 acquires information on the CO2 emission amount 1102 per unit distance from the CO2 emission amount table 208 of the DB server 11 based on the delivery means code 903. Next, based on the delivery means code 903, the AP server 12 acquires information on the maximum load capacity 1202 and the reference load ratio 1203 from the delivery means / stacking table 209 of the DB server 11 (step S2303). Next, the AP server 12 calculates the standard CO2 emission amount for each delivery means code 903 by (standard CO2 emission amount = delivery distance 803 × CO2 emission amount per unit distance 1102) (step S2304). Next, the AP server 12 calculates the CO2 emission amount of the delivery for each delivery means code 903 by (CO2 emission amount = delivery weight 2804 ÷ (maximum loading amount 1202 × reference loading rate 1203) × standard CO2 emission amount. ) (Step S2305). Next, the AP server 12 determines the difference between the CO2 emission amount of the delivery means code 903 (standard delivery means) whose standard flag 905 is 1 and the CO2 emission amount of the delivery means code 903 (other delivery means) whose standard flag 905 is 0. Is calculated by (difference CO2 emission amount = CO2 emission amount of reference delivery means−CO2 emission amount of other delivery means) (step S2401). Next, the AP server 12 acquires the conversion reference CO2 1301 and the conversion eco point 1302 from the eco point conversion table 210 of the DB server 11 (step S2402). The AP server 12 calculates an eco point from the difference CO2 emission amount calculated in step S2401 and the conversion standard CO2 1301 and conversion eco point 1302 acquired in step S2402 by (eco point = difference CO2 emission / conversion standard CO21301 × The calculated eco point 1302) is calculated (step S2403). Next, the AP server 12 searches the special flag table 211 of the DB server 11 based on the delivery means code 903, and acquires the special flag 1402 (step S2404). Based on the acquired special flag 1402, the AP server 12 determines whether or not there is a special point grant target, that is, a delivery means code 903 with a special flag of 1 (step S2405). If there is no delivery means code whose special flag 1402 is 1, the AP server 12 performs the process of step S2602 (FIG. 26), while if there is a delivery means whose special flag 1402 is 1, the process of step S2406 is performed. carry out. In step S2406, the AP server 12 obtains the required time 1702 between the business office and the base from the business office base time table 214 of the DB server 11 based on the zip code derived from the delivery source address 2803. The AP server 12 calculates the delivery source base arrival time of the delivery by (delivery source base arrival time = delivery request scheduled date / time 2805 + required time 1702) (FIG. 25, step S2501). Next, based on the delivery means code 903 with the delivery source base code 701, the delivery destination base code 701, and the special flag 1402 set to 1, the AP server 12 reads the delivery source base from the base-by-base delivery means operation table 213 of the DB server 11. The departure time 1604 is acquired, and the delivery source base departure time of the delivery means of the latest several flights (for example, three flights) is acquired from the delivery source base departure time 1604 (step S2502). The AP server 12 transmits the delivery source base departure time of the most recent flights acquired in step S2502, the delivery source base code 701, the delivery destination base code 701, and the delivery means code 903 to the aggregation server 15, The loading rate of the delivery means for the most recent flights is acquired from the aggregation server 15 (step S2503). The AP server 12 acquires the special point grant rate 1502 from the special point table 212 of the DB server 11 based on the loading rate of the delivery means of the most recent flights acquired in step S2503 (step S2504). Next, the AP server 12 calculates the special points of the most recent flights by (special points = eco points × special point grant rate 1502) (step S2505). Next, the AP server 12 calculates the delivery request time to the sales office for the delivery means of the most recent flights by (delivery request time = delivery source base departure time 1604−required time 1702) (step S2506). The delivery request time here indicates the date and time when the user must make a delivery request in order to have the delivery means to be a special point delivered. Next, the AP server 12 calculates the scheduled delivery completion time for the most recent flights to which special points are to be given by (delivery completion scheduled time = delivery request time calculated in step S2506 + delivery standard time 1005) (FIG. 26). Step S2601). The AP server 12 has a delivery means code 903 and delivery means name 904 with a special flag 1402 of 1, the special points of the most recent flights calculated in step S2505, the delivery request times of the last 3 flights calculated in step S2506, The estimated delivery completion time calculated in S2601 is transferred to the WEB server 13. If it is determined in step S2405 that there is no delivery means code whose special flag 1402 is 1, the AP server 12 passes only the argument of each parameter without a value to the WEB server 13 (step S2602). The AP server 12 uses the delivery means code 903 and delivery means name 904 acquired in step S2204, the delivery cost acquired in step S2205, the estimated delivery completion time calculated in step S2206, and the eco point calculated in step S2403. It is passed to the WEB server 13. If it is determined in step S2301 that there is no plurality of delivery means, only the argument of each parameter is passed to the WEB server 13 without an eco point (step S2603).

The WEB server 13 includes the user ID acquired in step S2002, the accumulated points acquired in S2005, the delivery source address, the delivery destination address acquired in step S2007, the delivery request date and time, the delivery cost for each delivery means acquired in step S2205, step The estimated delivery completion date and time calculated in S2206, the eco point calculated in Step S2403, the delivery request date and time calculated in Step S2506, the special point calculated in Step S2505, the estimated delivery completion date and time calculated in Step S2601, and the delivery acquired in Step S2603 From the delivery cost for each means, an output screen as shown in FIG. 29 is created and displayed on the user terminal 16 (step S2604).
