DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS Hereinafter, modes for carrying out the present invention (hereinafter referred to as embodiments) will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. In the following figures, the same numbers or symbols are given to the same elements throughout the description of the embodiments.

[Basic concept/basic configuration]
FIG. 1 is a diagram for explaining an overview of a warehouse work management system 1. As shown in FIG. The warehouse work management system 1 is a system that includes at least a computer 10 and manages the amount of work based on the number of workers and shipping orders in each process of warehouse work.
In this embodiment, the warehouse work management system 1 includes a computer 10, a WMS (Warehouse Management System) 20 that manages shipping orders, and an RCS (Resource Control System) that creates a work plan and sends work instructions to each resource device according to the work plan. System) 30, an administrator terminal 40 owned by a manager who manages workers and work contents, and an attendance system that manages each worker's work status such as attendance, working hours, tardiness, early leaving, breaks, absenteeism, etc. using shift data, etc. This system is connected to a shift management system 50, which is a management system, in a data communicable manner.

In this embodiment, a work plan for the current day is created or saved in advance, and this work plan is used. Note that, although it is desirable that the work plan is automatically created by the RCS 30 and automatically output to the computer 10, the work plan is not limited to this mode. Further, although the processes in warehouse work are assumed to be receiving, warehousing, picking, distribution processing, packaging, and shipping, the processes are not limited to these. Furthermore, in this specification, profit includes not only simple gross profit but also sales, expenditures, income and expenditure, and profit margin.

An overview of the processing steps when the warehouse work management system 1 calculates the profit of the entire day's work based on changes in the number of workers and/or work contents will be explained based on FIG.

The computer 10 acquires the shipping order information and work plan for the current day (step S0).
Shipping order information is, for example, information obtained by rearranging multiple shipping order information by delivery destination, delivery time, packaging unit, etc. and adding necessary items, and is data that includes product ID, shipping amount, deadline date and time. . The work plan is, for example, the number of workers and work contents (for example, work time, work amount) of each process in warehouse work.
The WMS 20 receives input of shipping order information from the customer. Shipping order information is accepted at any time, and the target customer may be single or multiple. Among the received shipping order information, the WMS 20 transmits the shipping order information for the current day to the computer 10 . Note that the WMS 20 may be configured to transmit shipping order information acquired from a customer system managed by the customer to the computer 10. Further, the computer 10 may obtain shipping order information from the RCS 30.
The RCS 30 transmits the current day's work plan among the created or saved work plans to the computer 10.
The computer 10 receives the shipping order information and work plan from the WMS 20 or the RCS 30, thereby acquiring the shipping order information and work plan for the current day.

After the business day ends, the computer 10 acquires completion information and acquires resource performance information (step S1).
After the business day ends, the computer 10 acquires the completion information of the entire warehouse's work processes on this day.
For example, when the RCS 30 acquires the successive work status of the resource equipment and obtains the completion status for the work instruction, it transmits it to the computer 10 as completion information for each work process of one day's warehouse work. If the end time of warehouse work is determined, completion information may be obtained automatically at that time, or input may be accepted and completion information may be sent at any time when the administrator determines the end of business. .
The computer 10 obtains completion information by receiving this completion information. Thereby, the computer 10 acquires resource performance information.

The computer 10 calculates the profit and productivity performance values for the entire day's work based on the acquired performance information (step S2).
The computer 10 calculates the productivity (the amount of work per unit time for a unit of personnel) and the required time for each process based on the resource performance information. The computer 10 also calculates sales and expenses for the entire day's worth of work. The computer 10 subtracts expenses from the calculated sales to calculate income and expenditure. The computer 10 calculates profit by performing these calculations. In this specification, profit and income and expenditure are treated as having the same meaning. Here, the computer 10 calculates the income and expenditure in each process using the same calculation.

The computer 10 compares the calculation result with the income and expenditure plan value created in advance (step S3).
The computer 10 compares the calculated actual value in each process with the profit in each process in the income and expenditure plan. The computer 10 determines whether the deviation between the actual work performance and the income and expenditure plan meets predetermined conditions, such as whether the profits of each process are below the plan and whether the work performance of each process deviates from the income and expenditure plan. Check whether it meets the requirements.

The computer 10 creates an alternative plan for each process in which the number of workers and/or the content of the work is changed (step S4).
The computer 10 creates an alternative plan with different work personnel and/or work content than the actual results. Specifically, alternative plans include, for example, a plan that reassigns the work in which the discrepancy occurred to other workers, or a plan that divides the day into two parts, one in the morning and one in the afternoon, where the discrepancy occurs in the morning. The layout of the work content that was originally assigned will be maintained except for the work content that was originally assigned, but the work content that has diverged in the afternoon will be compensated for and the work content will be rearranged. A plan is to extract work contents that have no problems or have few problems, and then allocate workers to the work contents where the discrepancy has occurred. This includes a plan to change the work to the next day or later, consolidate the work contents to those that can be performed by the current workers, re-create the work contents, and change the layout. This alternative plan is also created for each process.

The computer 10 simulates the created alternative plan and calculates the profit for the entire day's worth of work (step S5).
The computer 10 simulates the created alternative plan and calculates productivity, working hours, or sales in the alternative plan. The computer 10 subtracts expenses from the calculated sales to calculate income and expenditure. The computer 10 performs these calculations and calculates profits (income and expenditure). Furthermore, the computer 10 calculates the work efficiency (total required time, cut time margin, margin ratio, excess man-hours) in the alternative plan.
The total time required is the time required to complete the entire work using simulation (the time it would take if warehouse work was actually performed using this alternative plan), and is calculated from the work start time to the work end time. This is the time required. The cut time is a cut-off time set for each package to be shipped. The cut time margin is the time obtained by subtracting the total required time from the cut time (the time from the work end time to the cut time). The margin rate is the ratio of the cut time margin to the cut time. The excess person-hour is the number of people required per unit time when the cut time margin time is negative.

The computer 10 determines the best plan based on the alternative plans obtained in this way. Note that if the best plan is the same as the work result for that day, it means that the work result was optimal.
The RCS 30 or computer 10 utilizes the best plan for the next work plan.
Note that although an example has been described here in which a worker accepts a change to the work plan acquired by the computer 10, the same applies to a case where the amount of work is changed. The computer 10 notifies the administrator terminal 40 of the change in the amount of work, determines whether the work can be completed within the scheduled work time, and more preferably calculates the profit and informs the administrator terminal 40 of the deviation from the original plan (profit loss). to notify.

According to such a warehouse work management system 1, it is possible to utilize the evaluation of the work plan and actual work for the next work plan. In addition, if the workforce plan and work plan predicted on the previous day differ from the shipping order information for the day, it will recommend how the predicted workforce plan and work plan should have been changed to meet the shipping order information in time. It also becomes possible to perform income and expenditure simulations.

[Comparison process executed by computer 10]
The comparison process executed by the computer 10 will be explained based on FIG. 6. This figure is a flowchart of the comparison process executed by the computer 10. The comparison process includes an acquisition process (step S1) that acquires the completion information of the warehouse work described above and acquires the resource performance information (step S1), calculates the performance information for each process, and aggregates the performance information for the entire warehouse work for one day. This is the details of the calculation process (step S2) that calculates the profit and productivity of the entire work on that day, and the comparison process (step S3) that compares the calculation result with the income and expenditure plan value for each process.

The completion information acquisition module acquires the completion information of the day's warehouse work after the end of business for that day, and acquires the performance information of the resource (step S40).
The completion information includes details of work steps completed in one day's warehouse work, time of completion, work time, etc.
The completion information acquisition module acquires completion information for each work process in the entire warehouse at the time of completion of one day's warehouse work.
RCS 30 transmits this completion information to computer 10.
By receiving this completion information, the completion information acquisition module acquires completion information of one day's warehouse work and acquires resource performance information.

The overall work profit calculation module calculates the profit of the entire work for one day based on the acquired performance information (step S41).
The overall work profit calculation module uses the acquired performance information, the work plan acquired by the above-mentioned work plan acquisition process, the shipping order information acquired by the above-mentioned shipping order acquisition process, and the shift data acquired by the above-mentioned shift data acquisition process. Based on this, calculate the profit for the entire day's work.
The overall work profit calculation module calculates sales, expenditures, and income and expenditure in each process of one day's worth of work. Here, expenditure is synonymous with expenses, income and expenditure is synonymous with profit, and income and expenditure is obtained by subtracting expenditure from sales. The sales in each process here are the distribution costs paid by the shipper and those allocated to each process in advance. Moreover, expenditure is the labor cost of the workers assigned to each process.
The overall operation profit calculation module calculates sales, expenditures, and income and expenditure for each process of receiving, warehousing, picking, distribution processing, packaging, and shipping. The overall work profit calculation module calculates the sum of sales, sum of expenditure, and sum of income and expenditure in each process. The overall work profit calculation module divides the sum of income and expenditure by the sum of sales, and calculates the calculated value expressed as a percentage as a profit rate. The overall work profit calculation module calculates sales, expenditures, income and expenditure, and profit rate for the entire day's work as a total income and expenditure based on these calculation results.
Note that the contents of the profit calculated by the entire work profit calculation module are not limited to the above-mentioned example.

The overall work efficiency calculation module calculates the overall work efficiency for one day based on the acquired completion information (step S42). As mentioned above, productivity means the amount of work per unit time by a unit of personnel.
The work efficiency calculated by the overall work efficiency calculation module includes the work completion rate, amount of work, confirmed amount of work, and undetermined amount of work for the entire work, as well as the work completion rate, work content, and work time for the work plan in each process. etc.

The comparison module compares the calculated profit for each process with the profit for each process in the income and expenditure plan created in advance, and also compares the calculated profit for the whole day's work and the profit for one day in the income and expenditure plan created in advance. Compare the profit of the whole operation. Furthermore, the comparison module compares the calculated work efficiency in each process with the work efficiency in the income and expenditure plan created in advance.
The profits here are the sales, expenditures, income and expenditure, and profit margin mentioned above. Further, the work efficiency here refers to the above-mentioned work amount, productivity, and work time.
The comparison module compares the warehouse work actually performed and the income and expenditure plan created in advance, such as whether the profits of each process are below the plan and whether the work results of each process deviate from the income and expenditure plan created in advance. Check whether there is any deviation.

The comparison result creation module creates a comparison result (step S44).
The comparison result creation module creates a comparison result that summarizes the results of comparing the calculation results and the planned income and expenditure values. The comparison result creation module provides comparison results that visualize the overall progress of the entire day's work, processing capacity, profits such as staffing, and work efficiency using graphs, etc. Create a comparison result that summarizes the visualization of profits using a table, etc. and the visualization of the work efficiency of the entire day's work using a table, etc. (see Figures 7 and 8) .

The comparison results created by the comparison result creation module will be explained based on FIGS. 7 and 8. These figures are diagrams schematically showing examples of comparison results created by the comparison result creation module.
In FIG. 7, the comparison result creation module generates a comparison result graph 61 that summarizes the overall progress, processing capacity, and personnel allocation as a graph as the contents of the calculated profit and work efficiency, and the calculated daily work as a comparison result 60. A profit comparison result table 62 is shown that summarizes the overall income and expenditure (sales, expenditures, income and expenditure, profit rate) and the income and expenditure in each process (sales, expenditure, income and expenditure, profit rate) as a table.
In FIG. 8, the comparison result creation module generates, as a comparison result 60, the above-mentioned comparison result graph 61 and a work efficiency comparison result table 63 that summarizes the calculated work efficiency of the entire day's work and the work efficiency of each process as a table. is shown. The work efficiency in the work efficiency comparison result table 63 is the work completion rate and work amount of the work actually performed with respect to the income and expenditure plan.
Note that the arrangement and display mode (display mode of calculated profit, display mode of calculated work efficiency) can be changed as appropriate.
Further, the comparison result 60 may include only a part of these, for example, the profit comparison result table 62 or the work efficiency comparison result table 63. Further, the comparison result 60 may include other contents in addition to these.

The above is the comparison process.

[Alternative plan creation process executed by computer 10]
The alternative plan creation process executed by the computer 10 will be explained based on FIG. 9. This figure is a flowchart of the alternative plan creation process executed by the computer 10. The alternative plan creation process is the details of the above-described alternative plan creation process (step S4), and is a process executed after the above-described comparison process.

The change acceptance module accepts changes in the number of workers and/or the content of the work (step S50).
The manager terminal 40 receives input for changes in the number of workers and/or the content of the work from the manager who has viewed the comparison results for each process after the end of business that day.
In other words, the content of the work where the discrepancy is occurring is to be reassigned to another worker, the day is divided into two in the morning and the afternoon, and the work that was originally assigned in the morning is changed except for the part where the discrepancy is occurring. The layout of the content will be maintained, but the content will be rearranged by separately compensating for the work content where a discrepancy occurs in the afternoon, and the work content that was originally assigned to multiple people will not cause any problems even if the number of people decreases. Extract the work content with a small number of workers, and assign workers to the work content where the discrepancy occurs and change their assignments, or extract the work content that can be performed the next day or later without any problem and transfer that amount to the work content from the next day onward. These include content that needs to be changed, consolidated into work content that can be performed by current workers, recreated work content, and rearranged. In addition to these, if there are significantly more shipping orders than expected, we may cancel the next day's shipping and change to the same day's shipping, reduce the number of automated workers, or reduce the number of manual workers. If there were more shipping orders that required manual work than expected, if there were more shipping orders that required manual work to be done while reducing the number of automated workers, or if there were many shipping orders where the cut time was faster than predicted. In such a case, the number of workers will be increased by focusing on the shipping order starting with the shipping order with the slowest cut time so that the work can be completed early.
The administrator terminal 40 may be one that accepts input of such change plans one by one, or may be one that can input multiple plans.

The contents of changes accepted by the change reception module will be explained.
The administrator terminal 40 automatically or manually generates a plan in which the shipping order allocation order is changed, and accepts input to move forward the shipping orders (see FIGS. 10 and 11). Here, an example will be described in which the administrator terminal 40 moves forward the shipping order for packaging.
The administrator terminal 40 receives inputs for changes in the arrangement of workers and changes in work content in addition to changes in the shipping order.
The administrator terminal 40 accepts input of an alternative plan for changing a predetermined number of picking workers (for example, one person) to packing (see FIG. 12). The administrator terminal 40 also accepts input of an alternative plan that reduces the amount of work for shipments from the next day onward (see FIG. 13).

Based on FIGS. 10 and 11, a UI (User Interface) used when the administrator terminal 40 receives an input for changing the shipping order allocation order will be described. These figures are diagrams schematically showing an example of a change input UI displayed when the administrator terminal 40 receives an input for changing the shipping order allocation order.
The administrator terminal 40 displays the change input UI 70 on its own display unit and accepts input from the administrator.
In FIG. 10, the administrator terminal 40 accepts an input to bring forward the order of the three underlined shipping orders 72 among the shipping orders surrounded by a box line 71. After the administrator terminal 40 receives the input, the change input UI 70 in FIG. 11 shows a state in which three shipping orders 72 have been brought forward.
Note that this change input UI is just an example, and the display content, display order, input content, etc. are not limited to the UI shown in FIGS. 10 and 11. For example, other display contents, display order, input contents, etc. are also possible.

Based on FIG. 12, the UI used when the administrator terminal 40 receives input for changing the number of workers will be described. This figure is a diagram schematically showing an example of a change input UI displayed when the administrator terminal 40 receives an input for changing the number of workers.
The administrator terminal 40 displays the change input UI 80 on its own display unit and accepts input from the administrator.
The administrator terminal 40 accepts, in the worker input field 81, the input of the identifier of the worker to whom the worker is to be assigned. Here, the administrator terminal 40 accepts input to the icon 84, and accepts selection input by the worker from a pull-down menu.
The administrator terminal 40 receives, in the process input field 82, an input of a process to which a worker is to be assigned. Here, the administrator terminal 40 accepts input to the icon 84 and input to select a process from a pull-down menu.
The administrator terminal 40 accepts input of the worker assignment period in the time input field 83. Here, the administrator terminal 40 accepts input to the icon 84, and accepts selection input of the start time and end time of the period from a pull-down menu.
Note that this change input UI is just an example, and the display contents, display order, input contents, etc. are not limited to the UI shown in FIG. 12. For example, it is not necessary to use a pull-down menu based on the icons 84, and other display contents, display order, input contents, etc. are also possible.

Based on FIG. 13, the UI used when the administrator terminal 40 receives input for changing the work content will be described. This figure is a diagram schematically showing an example of a change input UI that is displayed when the administrator terminal 40 receives an input for changing the work content.
The administrator terminal 40 displays the change input UI 86 on its own display unit and accepts input from the administrator. This change input UI 86 is based on the created shipping order.
The administrator terminal 40 receives input for a shipping order that reduces the amount of work among shipping orders for the next day and thereafter. Specifically, by accepting a selection input for a shipping order desired by the administrator among the shipping orders currently displayed on the change input UI 86, input of the shipping order to be reduced is accepted. On the change input UI 86, the administrator terminal 40 clearly indicates that the input has been accepted by adding a check mark to the box in the date field 87 of the shipping order for which the input has been accepted.
Note that this change input UI is just an example, and the display contents, display order, input contents, etc. are not limited to the UI shown in FIG. 13. For example, it is not necessary to add a check mark, and other display contents, display order, input contents, etc. are also possible.

Returning to FIG. 9, the continuation of the process in step S50 in the alternative plan creation process will be described.
The administrator terminal 40 transmits the input change details to the computer 10.
The change reception module accepts changes in the number of workers and/or work contents by receiving the change contents.
Note that when the change reception module receives only one change content from the administrator terminal 40, it performs a process described later on only this one change content. When the change reception module receives a plurality of changes, it executes the process described below for each change. Furthermore, if changes are received along with the priority order, the process is executed according to the priority order.
Further, although the change reception module has been described as having a configuration in which change contents are accepted through the administrator terminal 40, the change reception module may have a configuration in which it directly receives change contents. For example, it is possible to learn the correlation between the work contents and the work personnel, and to accept changes to the work personnel and/or the work contents when a discrepancy occurs based on the learning results. Furthermore, when a discrepancy occurs, the change reception module may accept a change in the number of workers and/or the content of the work based on the number of workers and/or the content of the work set in advance.

The alternative plan creation module creates an alternative plan for the work plan based on the received changes (step S51).
The alternative plan creation module creates an alternative plan in which the received changes are reflected in the work plan for one day. That is, the alternative plan created by the alternative plan creation module is one in which the work personnel and/or work contents for which changes have been accepted are reflected in the work plan for one day.
If only one change has been accepted, the alternative plan creation module will create one alternative plan based on this one change, and if multiple changes have been accepted, it will create an alternative plan for each change. Create multiple alternative plans based on
In the following explanation, the alternative plan creation module creates an alternative plan 1 in which the number of workers for distribution processing is changed to one, the number of workers for picking is changed to one, the number of workers for distribution processing is one, and the number of workers for packaging is one. An explanation will be given assuming that an alternative plan 2 is created in which the plan is changed to picking in the afternoon, and an alternative plan 3 is created in which the amount of work for shipping from the next day is reduced.
Note that the number of alternative plans is not limited to the above-mentioned number, but may be larger or smaller, and may be created as appropriate depending on the number of workers and/or work contents received.
Furthermore, although the alternative plan creation module is described as creating an alternative plan, it may be configured to obtain an alternative plan created by the administrator. For example, the administrator terminal 40 accepts the input of an alternative plan created by the administrator, or the administrator terminal 40 creates an alternative plan based on the input changes and changes the alternative plan. to the computer 10. It is also possible for the computer 10 to be configured to consider that receiving this alternative plan creates an alternative plan.

The alternative plan storage module stores the created alternative plan (step S52).
The alternative plan storage module stores the created alternative plan and the identifier (name, ID, management number, serial number, etc.) of this alternative plan in association with each other. The alternative plan storage module stores alternative plan 1, alternative plan 2, and alternative plan 3.

The above is the alternative plan creation process.
The computer 10 uses the alternative plan created by the alternative plan creation process to execute the process described below.
Note that the computer 10 can also be configured to execute the process described below without storing the alternative plan in the process of creating an alternative plan, and in this case, the created alternative plan may be used as is in the process described below.

[Best plan determination process executed by computer 10]
The best plan determination process executed by the computer 10 will be described based on FIG. 14. This figure is a flowchart of the best plan determination process executed by the computer 10. The best plan determination process is the details of the process of calculating the profit of the entire work for one day (step S5), and is the process that is performed after the above-described alternative plan creation process.

The simulation module executes a simulation of the created alternative plan (step S60).
The simulation module executes a simulation of the alternative plan created by the above-described alternative plan creation process. The content of the simulation executed by the simulation module may be anything that simulates each process performed by the workers in the created alternative plan. The simulation module simultaneously simulates Alternative Plan 1, Alternative Plan 2, and Alternative Plan 3.
If only one alternative plan has been created, the simulation module simulates this one alternative plan, and if multiple alternative plans have been created, it simultaneously simulates the plurality of alternative plans.

The plan profit calculation module calculates the profit of the entire work for one day based on the alternative plan (step S61).
The plan profit calculation module calculates sales, expenditures, and income and expenditure in each process of the alternative plan. Here, expenditure is synonymous with expenses, income and expenditure is synonymous with profit, and income and expenditure is obtained by subtracting expenditure from sales. The sales in each process here are the distribution costs paid by the shipper and those allocated to each process in advance. Moreover, expenditure is the labor cost of the workers assigned to each process.
The plan profit calculation module calculates sales, expenses, and income and expenditure for each process of receiving, warehousing, picking, distribution processing, packaging, and shipping. The plan profit calculation module calculates the sum of sales, sum of expenditure, and sum of income and expenditure in each process. The plan profit calculation module divides the sum of income and expenditure by the sum of sales, and calculates the calculated value expressed as a percentage as a profit rate. Based on these calculation results, the plan profit calculation module calculates the sales, expenditures, income and expenditure, and profit rate for the entire day's worth of work based on the alternative plan, as a total income and expenditure.
The plan profit calculation module calculates the sales for the entire day's work based on Alternative Plan 1 as 420,000 yen, the expenditure as 383,040 yen, the income and expenditure as 36,960 yen, and the profit rate as 8.8%, The sales for the entire day's work based on Alternative Plan 2 are calculated as 450,000 yen, the expenditure is 390,600 yen, the balance is 59,400 yen, and the profit margin is 13.2%. The following processing will be explained assuming that the sales for the entire day's work are 434,786 yen, the expenditure is 382,354 yen, the balance is 52,432 yen, and the profit rate is 12.1%.
Note that the numbers in each item are calculated as appropriate in accordance with the shipping order, the work plan, the number of workers accepted, and/or the content of the work.

The plan work efficiency calculation module calculates the work efficiency of the entire day's work based on the alternative plan (step S62).
The work efficiency calculated by the plan work efficiency calculation module is the total required time, cut time margin, margin ratio, and excess man-hours.
The plan work efficiency calculation module calculates the work amount for each process of receiving goods, warehousing, picking, distribution processing, packaging, and shipping. The plan work efficiency calculation module calculates the total required time based on the time taken as a simulation result (the time taken when warehouse work is actually performed according to this alternative plan). The cut time is a deadline set for each package to be shipped, and is the time required from the work start time to the work end time. The plan work efficiency calculation module calculates the cut time margin based on the time obtained by subtracting the total required time from the cut time. Further, the plan work efficiency calculation module calculates the ratio of cut time margin time to cut time as a margin rate. When the cut time margin time is a positive value, it means that there is a margin in the working time, and when the cut time margin time is a negative value, it means that the working time is insufficient. The plan work efficiency calculation module calculates the excess man-hours as the number of people per unit time required when the cut time margin time is negative.
In this embodiment, the plan work efficiency calculation module calculates that the total time required for the entire day's work based on Alternative Plan 1 is 12h7m (12 hours and 7 minutes), and the cut time margin is -4:07 (minus 4 hours and 7 minutes). minutes), the margin rate is -17.5%, the excess man-hours is calculated as 13 man-hours, and the total time required for the entire day's work based on Alternative Plan 2 is 9h14m (9 hours 14 minutes), with a margin of cut time. Calculating the time as -1:14 (minus 1 hour and 14 minutes), the margin rate as -13.4%, and the excess man-hours as 6 man-hours, the total time required for the entire day's work based on Alternative Plan 3. The following processing will be explained assuming that the cut time margin is 7h57m (7 hours 57 minutes), the cut time margin is 0:03 (0 hours 3 minutes), the margin rate is 0.6%, and the excess man-hours is 0 man-hours. .
Note that the numbers in each item are calculated as appropriate in accordance with the shipping order, the work plan, the number of workers accepted, and/or the content of the work.

The simulation result creation module creates simulation results (step S63).
The simulation result creation module creates a simulation result that summarizes the profit and work efficiency for each alternative plan calculated by the processing of steps S61 and S62 described above. The simulation result creation module includes the identifier of each alternative plan, changes to the number of workers and/or work contents in this alternative plan, and the calculated daily sales, expenditures, income and expenditure, and profit rate (for each day) in this alternative plan. (including sales, expenses, and income and expenditure in the process), the total required time per day calculated in this alternative plan, cut time margin, margin ratio, excess man-hours, and overall progress (work volume and productivity in each process) etc.), simulation contents that visualize the simulation contents of each alternative plan such as processing capacity, personnel allocation, etc. using graphs, tables, etc., and a simulation result that summarizes the simulation contents (see Figure 15). ).
In FIG. 15, the simulation result creation module displays the name of each alternative plan, the details of the change, the work efficiency and profit rate for the whole day's worth of work in this alternative plan, and detailed icons linked to other contents. The simulation result is a compilation of 88 and 88.
Note that the simulation results created by the simulation result creation module are not limited to those shown in FIG. 15, and may include other content, or any one or a combination of these. It's okay if it is. Further, instead of displaying the detailed icon 88, other contents may be displayed.

Returning to FIG. 14, the continuation of the best plan determination process will be explained.
The rearrangement module rearranges the alternative plans in the created simulation results and the contents of the actual results implemented on that day in a predetermined order (step S64).
The predetermined order is based on profit and/or work efficiency. Specifically, in the case of profit, the order is the order in which the profit of the whole work for one day is large (the profit rate is large). In the case of work efficiency, the order is the order in which the work efficiency is optimal, and is one or more of the following: optimal total required time order, optimal cut time margin time order, optimal excess man-hour order, optimal margin rate order. It's a combination. In addition, if multiple changes are accepted along with the priority order given by the administrator, the changes are sorted according to the priority order.
An example of sorting performed by the sorting module will be explained.
The sorting module rearranges the order of the alternative plans in the created simulation results in order of the highest profit for the entire day's work based on the profit calculated in each alternative plan (see Figure 16). . In FIG. 16, the rearrangement module rearranges the order of the alternative plans in the simulation results shown in FIG. 15 in the order of the highest profit rate of alternative plan 2, alternative plan 3, and alternative plan 1.
Furthermore, the sorting module rearranges the order of the alternative plans in the created simulation results into the order of the optimal cut time allowance based on the cut time allowance calculated for each alternative plan (Figure 17 reference). In FIG. 17, the rearrangement module rearranges the order of alternative plans in the simulation results shown in FIG. 15 into an order that optimizes the cut time margins of alternative plan 3, alternative plan 2, and alternative plan 1. There is.
Similarly, the sorting module sorts the contents of other work efficiency in the order of the contents of the optimal work efficiency based on the contents of work efficiency calculated in each alternative plan, and the order of the alternative plans in the created simulation results. Sorting is possible.
Note that the sorting module not only sorts the order of alternative plans in the created simulation results based only on one content, but also sorts the order of this alternative plan based on a combination of multiple contents. A configuration that performs sorting is also possible. For example, the reordering module may be configured to reorder the alternative plans in order of highest profit and optimal cut time margin order. If you want to rearrange the order of alternative plans based on multiple contents like this, you can set priorities, thresholds, etc. for each contents, and then execute the rearrangement based on the priorities, thresholds, etc. All you have to do is

Another example of sorting performed by the sorting module will be described.
The priority condition reception module receives priority conditions for sorting the results of a plurality of simulated alternative plans. The priority condition is one of the work efficiency of the entire day's work, profit, work end time, worker attributes, and number of workers.
The rearrangement module rearranges the order of the alternative plans and actual results in the generated simulation results based on the contents of the priority conditions accepted for each alternative plan. For example, if the content of the received priority condition is the work efficiency of the whole work for one day, the sorting module will create the order of work efficiency for the whole work for one day calculated in each alternative plan. Execute rearrangement of the order of alternative plans and actual contents in the simulation results. In addition, the sorting module is created for other priority conditions as well, such as the order with the highest profit, the order with the appropriate end time, the order with the appropriate work attributes, or the order with the appropriate number of people. Execute rearrangement of the order of alternative plans and actual contents in the simulation results.

Returning to FIG. 14, the continuation of the best plan determination process will be explained.
The output module outputs the simulated alternative plan and actual values (step S65).
The output module outputs the simulation results that have been rearranged in the predetermined order described above (order with the highest profit for the entire day's work, order with the optimal work efficiency for the entire day's work, etc.) and send it to the administrator. It is transmitted to the terminal 40. In this embodiment, the explanation will be given assuming that the alternative plan output module rearranges the plans in the order of the cut time margin shown in FIG. 17 and sends them to the administrator terminal 40.
The administrator terminal 40 receives this sorting result and displays it on its own display unit or the like (see FIG. 18).
The output module outputs the simulated alternative plan and actual values by displaying the sort results on the administrator terminal 40.

The output results displayed by the administrator terminal 40 will be explained based on FIG. 18. This figure is a diagram schematically showing an example of an output result displayed by the administrator terminal 40.
The administrator terminal 40 displays the simulation result 90 on its own display unit based on the received output result. The administrator terminal 40 receives input such as a tap operation on the detailed icon 91, and displays the contents associated with the detailed icon 91, such as a graph of the overall progress, processing capacity, staffing, etc., the overall progress, and the progress of each process. , the screen changes to a screen showing simulated contents such as the overall income and expenditure and the income and expenditure of each process (see FIGS. 19 and 20).
FIG. 19 is a diagram schematically showing an example of a screen showing simulation contents. In the same figure, the administrator terminal 40 stores, as simulation results 90, the identifier of the alternative plan, the details of changes to the number of workers and/or work contents in this alternative plan, and the calculated profit rate for one day in this alternative plan. And, the total time required for one day, cut time margin, margin ratio, excess man-hours calculated in this alternative plan, overall progress (work volume, productivity, etc. in each process), processing capacity, staff allocation, etc. The simulated content of each alternative plan is displayed visualized using graphs, tables, etc. In addition, the administrator terminal 40 changes the content displayed in the simulation result 90 to the content shown in FIG. 20 by accepting a predetermined input. In addition, the administrator terminal 40 changes the content displayed in the simulation result 90 to the content shown in FIG. 18 by accepting a predetermined input.
FIG. 20 is a diagram schematically showing an example of a screen showing simulation contents. In the same figure, the administrator terminal 40 stores, as simulation results 90, the identifier of the alternative plan, the details of changes to the number of workers and/or work contents in this alternative plan, the calculated sales for one day in this alternative plan, Expenditures, income and expenditure, and profit margin (including sales, expenses, and income and expenditure in each process), the total required time for one day calculated in this alternative plan, cut time margin time, margin rate, excess man-hours, and overall progress, A summary of simulated contents of each alternative plan, such as processing capacity and personnel allocation, visualized in graphs, tables, etc. is displayed. In addition, the administrator terminal 40 changes the content displayed in the simulation result 90 to the content shown in FIG. 19 by accepting a predetermined input. In addition, the administrator terminal 40 changes the content displayed in the simulation result 90 to the content shown in FIG. 18 by accepting a predetermined input.

In the above description, the computer 10 is configured to output all simulated alternative plans, but even if the computer 10 is configured to output alternative plans that complete the entire warehouse work process on the same day. good. Specifically, the alternative plan output module extracts from the simulation results only the alternative plans whose calculated cut time margin time is 0 minutes or more among the simulated alternative plans, and outputs the extracted alternative plans. It is sufficient to output only the simulation results to the administrator terminal 40. In the case of this embodiment, the alternative plan output module extracts only alternative plan 3 from the simulation results, and outputs the simulation result of only alternative plan 3 to the administrator terminal 40 (see FIG. 21).

Returning to FIG. 14, the continuation of the best plan determination process will be explained.
The selection reception module receives selections for the output alternative plan (step S66).
The administrator terminal 40 receives a selection input for an alternative plan desired by the administrator from among the simulation results displayed on itself, and transmits the accepted alternative plan to the computer 10. The administrator terminal 40 receives a selection input for an alternative plan in the simulation result 90 shown in FIG. 18, and transmits the accepted alternative plan to the computer 10.
By receiving this alternative plan, the selection reception module accepts the selection of the output alternative plan.

The best plan optimum determination module determines the received content as the best plan (step S67).
The best plan determination module determines the number of workers and work contents in the received alternative plan or actual value as the best plan.
Note that the best plan determining module may determine the first plan in the output sorting results as the best plan under the priority conditions, regardless of the selection input from the administrator.

The above is the best plan determination process.
The computer 10 may inform the workers and the manager of the new work plan by notifying the workers and the manager of the decided work plan, or perform warehouse work based on the decided work plan. Processing related to adjusting the operation of equipment related to the above may also be executed.
As described above, according to the present invention, in simulating an alternative plan, a calculation result is obtained based on the actual value of the day, so a more accurate simulation is possible. In addition, by displaying the identifier of the alternative plan, changes to the number of workers and/or work contents in this alternative plan, and the simulated contents of each alternative plan in comparison with the actual values, the administrator can It will be possible to understand whether improvements could have been made by linking the changes and the efficiency improvement range.

Although each of the above-mentioned processes is described as a separate process, the computer 10 can also be configured to execute a part or all of the above-mentioned processes in combination. Further, the computer 10 can also be configured to execute each process at a timing other than the timing described above.
