Further, the sales representative can also set information on a standard product for a customer, order a product, and the like on the order input screen 300 in the same manner as the customer.

  When setting or changing a standard product in the terminal device 20, a standard product setting operation from the user is accepted via the operation unit 22 in accordance with the order input screen 300, and the standard product setting information is received. Is transmitted to the server 10 as the operation information in step S23 of the browser process. The standard product setting information includes information on the line number, product code, unit name, number of orders, and detailed remarks in the product information display field 303 of each standard product to be set.

  And CPU11 discriminate | determines whether the setting information of the standard goods was received from the terminal device 20 via the communication part 16 (step S42). When the standard product setting information is received (step S42; YES), the CPU 11 stores the standard product setting information received in step S42 in the standard product table 100 (step S43). In step S43, the company ID corresponding to the logged-in user, the customer code of the customer, the line number of the setting information, the product code, the unit name, the number of orders, and the details remark information are added to each item of the standard product table 100. Or updated.

  When the recommended product selection screen is displayed on the terminal device 20, a click operation of the recommended product selection button 302 from the user is accepted via the operation unit 22, and the recommended product display selection information is displayed in the browser process. It is transmitted to the server 10 as operation information in step S23.

  Then, the CPU 11 determines whether or not the recommended product display selection information is received from the terminal device 20 via the communication unit 16 (step S44). If the standard product setting information has not been received (step S42; NO), the process proceeds to step S44. If the recommended product display selection information has not been received (step S44; NO), the order entry screen display process ends. When the recommended product display selection information is received (step S44; YES), the CPU 11 executes a recommended product display process (step S45) and ends the order input screen display process.

  With reference to FIG. 9, the recommended product display process in step S45 will be described. First, the CPU 11 uses the product master table 70 and the product classification table 90 to read records having a large number of product classifications in hierarchical order corresponding to the company ID 101 and customer code 102 of the customer logged in or selected from the standard product table 100. A standard product list arranged in a row is generated and stored in the RAM 13 (step S51). In step S51, the standard product table 100 is read (copied), and the major classification code 78 of the read standard product table is sorted from the top to the bottom in order from the one with the same record to the one with the few records. Then, for each record of the middle classification code 79, the middle classification code 79 is sorted from the top to the bottom in order from the one with the same record to the one with the few records. Then, the records of the respective small classification codes 80 are sorted from the top to the bottom in order from the one having the same minor classification code 80 to the smallest one.

  Then, the product name 73, major classification code 78, middle classification code 79, and minor classification code 80 in the commodity master table 70 corresponding to the commodity code 105 of each sorted record are read. Then, the major category code 78, the middle category code 79, the major category code 91 of the merchandise category table 90 corresponding to the minor category code 80, the middle category code 92, and the merchandise category name 94 of the minor category code 93 are read. . In this way, a standard product list having items of the product name 73 of the read standard product, the product category name 94 of the large category, the medium category, and the small category is generated.

  Then, the CPU 11 uses the product classification table 90 to generate a recommended product list in which records corresponding to the company ID 71 of the customer who is logged in or selected from the product master table 70 are read and arranged. It memorize | stores in RAM13 (step S52). In step S51, first, in the product master table 70, the product name 73, the large classification code 78, the middle classification code 79, and the small classification code 80 of the record whose recommendation flag 76 is 1 are read. Then, the major category code 78, the middle category code 79, the major category code 91 of the merchandise category table 90 corresponding to the minor category code 80, the middle category code 92, and the merchandise category name 94 of the minor category code 93 are read. . In this way, a recommended product list having items of the product name 73 of the recommended product that has been read, the product category name 94 of the large category, the medium category, and the small category is generated.

  Then, the CPU 11 selects one unselected high-order record in the standard product list generated in step S51 (step S53). Then, the CPU 11 compares the records selected in step S53 with the classifications (major classification, middle classification, and minor classification) of each record in the recommended product list generated in step S53 (step S54). Then, the CPU 11 sorts the recommended product list records whose classifications match in step S54 to the top (step S55). In step S55, the records with the same classification are sorted down one record already sorted.

  Then, the CPU 11 determines whether or not there is an unselected record in step S53 (step S56). If there is an unselected record (step S56; YES), the process proceeds to step S53. If there is no unselected record (step S56; NO), the CPU 11 uses the product master table 70 to generate recommended product selection screen information having product information of recommended products in the order of records in the recommended product list (recommended order). (Step S57).

  As shown in FIG. 12, in step S57, screen information of a recommended product selection screen 400 excluding a recommended message column 470 described later is generated. The recommended product selection screen 400 includes recommended product information fields 410, 420, 430, and 440, a page switching button 450, and a return button 460.

  The recommended product information fields 410, 420, 430, and 440 are areas for displaying information on recommended products corresponding to the order from the top to the bottom of the records in the recommended product list. The recommended product information fields 410, 420, 430, and 440 include a product name, an image 75, a description 81, a price 82, and a unit name 74 of the recommended product in the recommended product list. The recommended product information fields 410, 420, 430, and 440 each have a selection button 401 for shifting to a detailed information screen (not shown) of the corresponding recommended product.

  The page switching button 450 is a button for switching pages when there are two or more recommended display screens. The return button 460 is a button for returning from the recommended product selection screen to the order input screen.

  Then, the CPU 11 refers to the customer master table 60 and determines whether the validity 67 corresponding to the customer ID 65 of the customer who has logged in or selected is large, medium, or small (step S58). . When the effectiveness 67 is large (step S58; large), the CPU 11 executes a first recommendation message setting process (step S59). When the effectiveness 67 is medium (step S58; medium), the CPU 11 executes a second recommendation message setting process (step S60).

  Then, the CPU 11 adds the recommended message information set in steps S59 and S60 to the recommended product selection screen information generated in step S57, and displays the display information in step S25 of the browser process via the communication unit 16. The recommended product selection screen information is transmitted to the terminal device 20 that is the login source (step S61), and the recommended product display process is terminated. When the effectiveness 67 is small (step S58; small), the process proceeds to step S61. In this case, a recommendation message is not added.

  With reference to FIG. 10A, the first recommended message setting process in step S59 of the recommended product display process will be described. First, the CPU 11 reads out and acquires the small category of the top standard product in the standard product list generated in step S51 of the recommended product display process (step S71). Then, the CPU 11 compares the small classification acquired in step S71 with the small classification of all the records of the recommended product list generated in step S52 of the recommended product display process as a common keyword (step S72).

  And CPU11 discriminate | determines whether there exists any recommended goods in which a small classification corresponds as a common keyword by step S72 (step S73). If there is no matching recommended product (step S73; NO), the first recommended message setting process ends. When there is a recommended product that matches (step S73; YES), the CPU 11 determines whether or not the recommended category that matched the small category in step S73 and the large, medium, and small categories of the standard product acquired in step S11 match. (Step S74).

  If the three classifications match (step S74; YES), the first recommendation message setting process ends. If the three categories do not match (step S74; NO), the CPU 11 refers to the product master table 70, and reads the catch phrase 77 of the product name 73 of the recommended product in which the small categories match and the three categories do not match in step S74. (Step S75). Then, the CPU 11 sets the catch phrase 77 read in step S75 as recommended message information (step S76), and ends the first recommended message setting process. The recommended message information set in step S76 is displayed in the recommended message column 470 of the recommended product selection screen 400 in FIG. The recommended message column 470 preferably includes a page number with a recommended product display column for the corresponding recommended product.

  With reference to FIG.10 (b), the 2nd recommendation message setting process of step S60 of a recommended product display process is demonstrated. First, the CPU 11 reads out and acquires the major classification of the top standard product in the standard product list generated in step S51 of the recommended product display process (step S81). Then, the CPU 11 compares the large classification acquired in step S81 with the large classification of all the records in the recommended product list generated in step S52 of the recommended product display process (step S82).

  Then, the CPU 11 determines whether or not there is a recommended product that matches in step S82 (step S83). If there is no matching recommended product (step S83; NO), the second recommended message setting process ends. If there is a recommended recommended product that matches (step S83; YES), the CPU 11 reads out and acquires the small category of the top standard product in the standard product list (step S84). Then, the CPU 11 compares the subcategory acquired in step S84 with the subcategory of recommended products matched in step S83 as a common keyword (step S85).

  And CPU11 discriminate | determines whether there exists any recommendation goods with which a small classification corresponds as a common keyword by step S85 (step S86). If there is no matching recommended product (step S86; NO), the second recommended message setting process ends. If there is a matching recommended product (step S86; YES), the process proceeds to step S87. Steps S87 to S89 are the same as steps S74 to S76 of the first recommendation message setting process.

  Here, a specific example of the recommended product display process will be described with reference to FIG. First, it is assumed that the standard product list before sorting corresponding to the standard product table 100 is the standard product list 501 shown in FIG. In step S51, a standard product list 502 shown in FIG. 13B is generated as a standard product list in which records having a large number are sorted in the order of large → medium → small. In the standard product list 502, since there are the largest number of records with the major classification being food, the records are sorted higher, and the seafood and vegetables having the highest number of middle classifications are sorted in order. In addition, among the records of the middle classification, the fish records having the same number of small classifications are sorted in the upper rank.

  Then, in step S52, it is assumed that a recommended product list 601 before sorting shown in FIG. In steps S53 to S56, the selection record from the top of the standard product list 502 is compared with all the records in the recommended product list 601, and the items such as horse mackerel whose classification matches the standard product list 502 in the recommended product list 601 are compared. The records are sorted higher, and a recommended product list 602 after sorting shown in FIG. 13D is generated. In this way, in the recommended product list 602, records having a large number of classifications in the order of large, medium and small in the standard product list 502, and records having high relevance (similarity) with the standard products are sorted higher.

Then, when the effectiveness of the customer product category is high, the small category (fish) of the top standard product in the standard product list 502 is acquired in step S71 of the first recommendation message setting process. In Steps S72 to S74, a record of a recommended product in the recommended product list 602 in which the top standard product matches the small category (fish) as the common keyword and the product name does not match the major category or the middle category is Sabaki Kitchen Acquired (selected). In steps S75 and S76, a catch phrase 77 (three fishes) corresponding to the recommended product is set as recommended message information. In the recommended product selection screen 400 of FIG. 12, the set recommended message information is displayed in the recommended message column 470.
When the recommended product selection screen 400 is displayed on the terminal device 20 and the recommended message column 470 is selected, information on the saw knife is displayed in the recommended product information columns 410, 420, 430, and 440.

  In addition, when the effectiveness of the customer product category is medium, the major category (food item) of the top standard product in the standard product list 502 is acquired in step S81 of the second recommendation message setting process. In steps S82 to S87, a record of recommended products in which the top standard product matches the large classification (food) and the small classification (fish) as the common keyword and the medium classification does not match is not acquired (selected). 2 recommendation message setting processing is completed. Even when the effectiveness of the customer's product classification is small, a record of recommended products is not acquired (selected).

  Further, when the order input screen 300 is displayed on the terminal device 20, when the user inputs an edit of product information to be ordered via the operation unit 22 and the order confirmation button 311 is clicked on, the product name of the product is displayed. The product order information including the unit name, the number of orders, and the remarks is transmitted to the server 10. The server 10 receives the product order information from the terminal device 20 and receives an order for the product. For example, when receiving the product ordering information via the communication unit 16, the CPU 11 of the server 10 refers to the person-in-charge master table 50 and the customer master table 60, creates an email including the product order details, and sends it to the transmission source. It transmits to the mail addresses 54 and 64 of the corresponding customer and sales representative.

  As described above, according to the present embodiment, the server 10 categorizes the information on the standard products in the standard product table 100 and the information on the recommended products with the recommendation flag 76 in the product master table 70 into the product classification (major classification code 78). , Medium classification code 79 and small classification code 80). Then, the server 10 sorts the standard products using the information on the standard products in descending order of the number of registered product categories, and uses the recommended product information to select the product classification selected from the top of the sorted standard products. The product categories of all recommended products are compared, and the recommended products are sorted in the order in which the product categories match. Then, the server 10 generates recommended product selection screen information for displaying recommended product information in the sorted order, and causes the terminal device 20 to display the recommended product selection screen information.

  For this reason, it is possible to display recommended product information on the recommended product selection screen in the order in which the customer's ordering trend and needs are answered, so that users can preferentially recommend recommended products that are highly relevant to standard products. The customer's willingness to purchase can be increased, and the merchandise wholesaler can promote the sale of the merchandise. In addition, it is not necessary for the user to manually search for recommended products, and recommended product information that matches the needs of the customer is displayed preferentially, so the burden on the user when acquiring recommended products can be reduced.

  Further, the server 10 sorts the standard products in the order of the number of registered product categories in the order of product category hierarchy (from large to medium to small). For this reason, it is possible to sort the basic products more appropriately by subdividing the product classification, and it is possible to display the recommended product information on the recommended product selection screen in the order of answer according to the customer's ordering tendency and needs.

  Further, the server 10 selects a recommended product, reads a catch phrase of the selected recommended product from the product master table 70, and includes the catch phrase in the recommended product selection screen. For this reason, by displaying the recommendation message, it is possible to broaden the customer's field of view and increase the willingness to purchase the product. In addition, for the merchandise wholesaler on the seller side, it is possible to widen the business opportunity and obtain the effect of promoting the merchandise sales.

  In addition, the server 10 selects recommended products for which the sorted upper standard products and the lower (small category) product categories match for the recommendation message. For this reason, by displaying a recommendation message, it is actually an interesting hiding among the recommended products of other product categories (major category, medium category) that are really necessary for the customer or not concerned at all This helps to find new products, further broadens the customer's vision, further increases the willingness to purchase products, and further expands business opportunities for merchandise wholesalers and further promotes product sales.

  In addition, when the effectiveness of the customer's product classification is large, the server 10 selects a recommended product in which the sorted upper standard product and the lower (small classification) product classification match, and the effectiveness is medium. In the case of, a recommended high-order product that matches the upper layer (major category) and lower layer product category is selected, and if the effectiveness is small, the recommended product is not selected. For this reason, a more appropriate recommendation message can be displayed or hidden according to the effectiveness of the customer's product classification.

  In addition, the server 10 does not select recommended products that match the product classifications of all layers (major category, middle category, and minor category) of the sorted high-order basic items. For this reason, it is possible to avoid the display of the recommended message of the recommended product that is displayed preferentially on the recommended product selection screen and is sufficiently visible to the user, and to prevent unnecessary information from being displayed.

  In the above description, an example in which the storage unit 15 (hard disk) is used as a computer-readable medium of the program according to the present invention is disclosed, but the present invention is not limited to this example. As other computer-readable media, a non-volatile memory such as a flash memory and a portable recording medium such as a CD-ROM can be applied. A carrier wave is also applied to the present invention as a medium for providing program data according to the present invention via a communication line.

  The description in the above embodiment is an example of the information processing apparatus and the program according to the present invention, and the present invention is not limited to this.

  For example, in the above embodiment, the recommended message is a recommended product that has the same top-level subcategory (for example, fish) in the standard product list as the common keyword. However, the present invention is not limited to this. For example, it is also possible to select a recommended product in which the top-level small category (for example, fish) in the standard product list and the recommended product small category (for example, for fish) partially match with the common keyword “fish”. Good. Moreover, it is good also as a structure which selects and displays several recommendation messages corresponding to several goods.

  In the above embodiment, the order input screen information has the same layout for each merchandise wholesale company. However, the present invention is not limited to this. A configuration may be adopted in which display information such as order entry screen information differs for each merchandise wholesale company.

  Moreover, it is needless to say that the detailed configuration and detailed operation of each component of the commodity ordering system 1 in the above embodiment can be changed as appropriate without departing from the spirit of the present invention.
