  Embodiments of a product management unit conversion device, a product management unit conversion method, and a product management unit conversion program according to the present invention will be described below in detail with reference to the drawings. In addition, this invention is not limited by this embodiment.

[1. Overview]
In fields such as the food industry, there is a desire to manage the unit of quantity used for sales transactions and the unit of inventory quantity for internal confirmation in different units. For example, when the product is a fish, the unit for sales transaction is “cut” representing a fillet unit, and the unit for internal confirmation is “g, kg” or the like representing weight.

  In addition, since it was conventionally managed only by product units (cut in the case of fish), inventory units (units for internal confirmation) and sales purchase management units (units for sales transactions) cannot be distinguished. It was. For this reason, it was not possible to aggregate inventory quantities or actual sales quantities by categorizing by variety unit (a big group called fish).

  Therefore, in the present embodiment, for example, an inventory management unit (internal confirmation unit) is set in the product type master, and a sales purchase quantity management unit (unit in sales transaction) is set in the product master linked to the product type master. By setting, a product management unit conversion device, a product management unit conversion method, and a product management unit conversion program capable of managing the same product in different units are provided. The product master includes product code as items, and the product master includes the product code and product code as items. Thereby, in this embodiment, the following management and calculation are possible, for example.

  First, the inventory quantity (unit for internal confirmation) and the unit of sales purchase quantity (unit for sales transactions) can be managed separately. For example, when the breed is fish, the stock management unit in the breed master is kg, and the sales purchase quantity management unit in the product master is 2/1 cut fish cut and 3/1 cut fish fillet. Each is managed as g.

  Second, you can calculate the total quantity in a unified unit by product type. For example, if 500 g of 2/1 cut fish is purchased and 600 g of 3/1 cut fish is purchased, the total weight of the purchase is 500 g + 600 g = 1.1 kg.

  Third, you can calculate the total number of varieties such as sales performance. For example, if 300g of 2/1 fish fillet is sold and 400g of 3/1 fish fillet is sold in the above-mentioned state of purchase, the total weight of the remaining fish stock is 1.1kg- (300g + 400g ) = 0.4 kg. Hereinafter, a specific configuration and operation will be described.

[3. Specific example of processing]
Hereinafter, specific examples of processing according to the present embodiment will be described with reference to FIGS. FIG. 2 is a diagram illustrating an example of a relationship between each master. FIG. 3 is a diagram illustrating an example of a processing flow of processing according to the present embodiment. FIG. 4 is a diagram illustrating an example of a product type master, a product master, and a current stock file.

FIG. 7 is a diagram illustrating an example of calculation of the total sales performance. FIG. 8 is a diagram illustrating an example of a unit master management screen. FIG. 9 is a diagram illustrating an example of a product master management screen. FIG. 10 is a diagram illustrating an example of a product master management screen. FIG. 11 is a diagram illustrating an example of a sales input screen. FIG. 12 is a diagram illustrating an example of an inventory inquiry screen.

  An overview of the processing according to the present embodiment will be described with reference to FIG. As shown in FIG. 3, a current stock file (after sale) is created from the current stock file (before sales) by processing referring to the product type master 106a, product master 106b, unit master 106c, and sales detail data 106d. Then, inventory inquiry data and a sales record file are created from the current store file (after sales).

  Details of the processing according to the present embodiment will be described below. In the present embodiment, the numerical value in the second unit can be converted into the numerical value in the first unit by the calculation “numerical value in the second unit × unit numerical value input by the operator”. The situations where this calculation can be applied are as follows. 1. Scenes for calculating inventory weight after sales. 2. a scene of changing a product container; There are three scenes where total sales results are calculated. Hereinafter, the processing according to the present embodiment will be described in detail in this order while explaining each scene.

[3-1. When calculating the inventory weight after sales]
First, the scene of calculating the inventory weight after sales will be described in detail with reference to FIG. Here, as a specific example, a case will be described in which the post-sales inventory weight is calculated for a 100 g pack product in the sales data image of FIG.

(Unit acquisition processing)
The unit acquisition unit 102a acquires a first unit code associated with the input type identification information from the type master 106a, and further acquires a first unit corresponding to the acquired first unit code from the unit master 106c. The second unit code associated with the input product identification information is acquired from the product master 106b, and the second unit corresponding to the acquired second unit code is acquired from the unit master 106c.

  Specifically, the operator first inputs the product type code HS00000001 for the 100 g pack in the sales data image of FIG. The unit acquisition unit 102a acquires the inventory management unit code 01 from the product master 106a in FIG. 4 as the first unit code associated with the input product code HS00000001. Furthermore, the unit acquisition unit 102a acquires the unit name kg from the unit master 106c of FIG. 2 as the first unit corresponding to the acquired first unit code 01. The information in the sales data image of FIG. 5 can be input through the sales input screen shown in FIG.

  On the other hand, the operator inputs the product code SH00000001 for the 100 g pack in the sales data image of FIG. The unit acquisition unit 102a acquires the transaction management unit code 02 from the product master 106b of FIG. 4 as the second unit code associated with the input product code SH00000001. Furthermore, the unit acquisition unit 102a acquires a unit name P (pack) from the unit master 106c of FIG. 2 as the second unit corresponding to the acquired second unit code 02.

  In this way, the unit acquisition unit 102a acquires kg as the first unit and P (pack) as the second unit for a 100 g pack product.

(Unit value acquisition processing)
The unit numerical value acquisition unit 102b acquires a unit numerical value associated with the input product identification information from the product master 106b.

  Specifically, the unit numerical value acquisition unit 102b acquires 0.1 kg / P from the product master 106b of FIG. 4 as the unit numerical value associated with the input product code SH00000001.

(Conversion processing)
When the numerical value in the acquired second unit is input, the conversion unit 102c multiplies the input numerical value by the acquired unit numerical value, thereby obtaining the acquired numerical value in the second unit. Convert to a single unit.

  Specifically, it is assumed that 90P is input as a numerical value in the acquired second unit as shown in the item “quantity” of the sales data image in FIG. The conversion unit 102c calculates 90P × 0.1kg / P = 9kg by multiplying the input numerical value (90P) by the acquired unit numerical value (0.1kg / P), and the acquired second unit The numerical value (P) in is converted into the numerical value (kg) in the acquired first unit.

(Display execution process)
The display execution unit 102d may display the converted numerical value (9 kg) in the first unit on the screen. Thereby, the operator can easily grasp the converted numerical value obtained by converting the numerical value in the second unit into the numerical value in the first unit.

  Then, as shown in the current stock file (before sale) in FIG. 5, if the stock weight before sale of the 100 g pack is 10.0 kg, the stock weight after sale of the 100 g pack is 10.0 kg-conversion unit. It can be calculated that 9 kg = 1.0 kg calculated by 102c. Further, as shown in the current stock file (before sale) in FIG. 5, if the stock quantity before sale of the 100 g pack is 100P, the stock quantity after sale of the 100 g pack is calculated as 100P−90P = 10P. be able to. The stock weight after sale of 1.0 kg and the stock quantity after sale of 10P can be confirmed through, for example, the stock inquiry screen of FIG.

  In addition, although explanation is omitted also about the product of 200g pack, the stock weight after sale is calculated to 4.0 kg and the stock quantity after sale is calculated to 20P by the same method as the above-mentioned product of 100g pack. can do.

[3-2. Scene of converting product containers]
Next, the scene which changes a goods container is demonstrated in detail using FIG. Here, a scene in which the number of packs of 200 g pack products is converted into the number of packs of 100 g pack products will be described.

  Specifically, as shown in the current stock file (before SH00000002 product change) in FIG. 6, it is assumed that the number of inventory (number of transaction management) before the sale of the 200 g pack is 20P. When this 20P (second unit) is converted into kg (first unit), [3-1. ], The unit numerical value of 20 P × 200 g pack is 0.2 kg / P = 4.0 kg. And when this 4.0 kg is converted into the number of packs of 100 g pack, the unit value of 4.0 kg ÷ 100 g pack is 0.1 kg / P = 40 p. From the above, it was found that 20P of the 200 g pack corresponds to 40P of the 100 g pack. For this reason, the stock quantity after the product change of the 100 g pack is 10P + 40P = 50P as shown in the current stock file (after SH00000002 product change) in FIG. On the other hand, the stock quantity after the product change of the 200 g pack is 20P-20P = 0P as shown in the current store file (SH00000002 product change) in FIG.

  In other words, the above processing is as follows. That is, in this embodiment, (1) when the transaction management unit (P) of the 100 g pack and the 200 g pack are the same and the inventory management unit (kg) is the same, (2) the product change from the 200 g pack to the 100 g pack (3) The calculation method is “200 g pack transaction management number” × “200 g pack unit weight ÷ 100 g pack unit weight”, (4) That is, 20p × 0.2 ÷ 0.1 = 40p.

  As described above, the merchandise management unit conversion apparatus 100 according to the present embodiment can convert the merchandise management unit in the merchandise product unit. For example, the first unit and the second unit match between two merchandise. (Ie, the varieties of both products are the same) but the capacities are different (ie, the product numbers of both products are different), the product containers can be easily transferred. That is, in other words, it is possible to determine whether transfer is possible between products having different capacities.

[3-3. When calculating total sales results]
Finally, the scene for calculating the total sales performance will be described in detail with reference to FIG. Here, the scene of calculating the total sales performance of the sales performance of the 100 g pack product and the sales performance of the 200 g pack product will be described.

  Specifically, the [3-1. According to the calculation described in the item, the sales weight is 90P × 0.1kg / P = 9.0kg when the 100g product is sold 90P, and the sales weight is 80P when the 200g product is sold 80P. 80P × 0.2kg / P = 16.0kg. Therefore, the total sales result (weight) of the total sales weight of the 100 g pack product and the 200 g pack product is 9.0 kg + 16.0 kg = as shown in the total sales result (after sale) in FIG. 25.0 kg.

  As described above, the merchandise management unit conversion apparatus 100 according to the present embodiment can convert the merchandise management unit in the merchandise product unit. For example, the first unit and the second unit match between two merchandise. (That is, the product types of both products are the same) but the capacities are different (that is, the product numbers of both products are different), the total sales weight of both products can be easily calculated. That is, in other words, it is possible to analyze the total sales amount of the same product in different sales units.

  [3-1. ] To [3-3. ], As described in the item, the product management unit conversion apparatus 100 according to the present embodiment sets the product management unit in the product type unit (for example, the product type unit of fish as in this embodiment). Can be converted.
