Description

  The present invention relates to a design management apparatus, a design management program, and a design management system that register and publish an original design and reduce the price of design creation to the design creator every time the design is used.

  Conventionally, the purchase of a product such as an article by an original design has been limitedly sold by a producer directly or through an intermediary through a catalog booklet, various media, word of mouth, and the like. With the spread of the Internet in recent years, it has become possible to sell a larger number of products by publishing and selling original works on their homepage.

  In addition, in the distribution of goods, there is a purchase price reduction system that performs price reduction for the purchase price for each arbitrary sales frame by setting a sales frame and a return condition determined according to the sales attribute of the product. (For example, refer to Patent Document 1 below.)

JP 2003-50899 A

  However, at present, for works with originality in design, works that are publicly registered on the homepage etc. are traded in units of those works. Therefore, if the work is strong in originality and given a certain evaluation, the value (price) of the work will not change or increase continuously. At the same time, if the original work is produced manually, for example, and the number of pieces distributed is small, it is often difficult to obtain the original work itself. In this case, for example, the release of a work using the Internet or the like does not contribute to the promotion of the distribution of the work.

  Moreover, according to the technique of the above-mentioned patent document 1, it is possible to reduce the price for the purchase price for each sales frame. This is based on the sales of works (articles) and is particularly premised on mass sales. Therefore, any reduction to the originality of the work is not considered.

  In the first place, in the past, whatever the public medium was, if the originality of the work was maintained, the distribution volume would decrease. Conversely, if the distribution volume increased, the originality of the work was lost.

  On the other hand, in recent years, the diversity of each person's values is also reflected, and the value of the work has become diverse. The original work is not limited to just a few people called so-called craftsmen, Even the creations of the tend to be accepted. In such a case, even a general consumer can not only purchase a work but also create (produce) a work in a certain field, but there is no technology that can specifically implement this. It was.

  The creation of the work described above corresponds to this even when the original work is designed without including the work production itself. If the value of the design is important, even if a well-known craftsman makes a work based on this design, the originality of the design must be maintained. In this way, even if there is no skill to produce a work, the originality can be maintained by design alone, and if the technology that can publish this and return the consideration of the design to the person who designed it is provided, the number of original works To increase the distribution of original works.

  Also, if there is an original work, it may be possible to produce a work with some design changes based on this original work. In this case, while maintaining the originality, it can be developed to create more diverse designs. Here, in the past, works produced by hand, etc. were dealt with without specially judging the originality of the design, and there was no mechanism to manage some design changes to the original work itself. If you change only part of the original design, you may be able to get a work that suits your tastes. However, it is not possible to easily manage a work with design and design changes. At the same time, the design change itself could not be handled flexibly.

  If the technology (for example, a system) as described above is generally provided, even those who have given up on creating original designs can actively provide works. At the same time, the purchaser can increase opportunities to purchase not only ready-made works but also original works.

  Exemplary embodiments of a design management apparatus, a design management program, and a design management system according to the present invention will be explained below in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

(Outline of distribution service of original works)
FIG. 1 is a schematic diagram showing the flow of service for distributing original works according to the present invention. A craftsman (M: abbreviation of Meister) 10 who produces a work receives an order from a customer (C: abbreviation of customer) 20 and produces the work. Thereafter, the price of the work produced from the customer C (20) is received, and the work is delivered from the craftsman M (10) to the customer C (20). The commercial transaction of the work itself is directly performed between the craftsman M (10) and the customer C (20).

  The service provider 30 performs management related to the design of works produced by the craftsman M (10) and delivered to the customer C (20). There are various types of management, but here, the craftsman M (10) pays a predetermined service fee to the service provider 30 and receives a service provision for publishing the design of the work. The service provision fee can be a fixed monthly fee or can be generated for each transaction with the customer C (20).

  The customer C (20) obtains information on the design of the work with a free service. If there is a work with a design you like, ask the craftsman M (10) to make a design. The price of the work delivered to the customer C (20) includes a design reference fee that is returned (kickback) to the person who created the original design. A person who created this original design may be a craftsman M (10) or a customer C other than the customer C (20) who ordered the work.

  FIG. 2 is a schematic diagram showing the flow of design reference fee reduction. The service provider 103 provides the design reference fee reduction process. Specifically, the service provider 103 operates an Internet server, and performs management processing related to the return of design reference fees for each work on the server. The customer C in the example shown in FIG. 2 is divided into a customer C1 (101) who created the original design and a customer C2 (102) who requests production of a work using the design created by the customer C1 (101).

  First, the customer C1 (101) creates an original design and places an order with the craftsman M (100) (step S101). The craftsman M (100) produces a work using this design and performs an original authorization process for the work (step S102). Here, it is assumed that the craftsman M (100) recognizes that the produced work has originality. Thereafter, the craftsman M (100) is paid for the work from the customer C1 (101) (step S103), and the craftsman M (100) delivers the work to the customer C1 (101) (step S104). Thereafter, the craftsman M (100) pays a predetermined service fee for using the system to the service provider 103 (step S104a). Thereafter, the customer C1 (101) registers this work in the catalog 201 of the service provider 103 (step S105). This catalog is published on a server on the Internet and can be viewed by the craftsman M (100) and other customers C2 (102).

  The customer C2 (102) refers to the design published in the catalog 201 of the service provider 103 (step S106). Then, it is assumed that the customer C2 (102) orders the craftsman M (100) with reference to the design of the customer C1 (101) (step S107). The craftsman M (100) produces a work based on the design of the customer C1 (101), and performs an original authorization process for the work (step S108). Here, it is assumed that the craftsman M (100) recognizes that the produced work has originality. Thereafter, the customer C2 (102) pays the work for the craftsman M (100) (step S109), and the craftsman M (100) delivers the work to the customer C2 (102) (step S110).

  The customer C2 (102) pays a design reference fee to the customer C1 (101) who created the original design (step S111). The customer C2 (102) can omit the process of paying the design reference fee separately in addition to the payment for the work. For example, the customer C2 (102) needs to pay only once in step S109. In this case, the craftsman M (100) who receives the price of the work declares the sales received as the price to the service provider 103, so that the service provider 103 obtains the design reference fee at a predetermined rate from the sales. It can be configured to pay (return) on behalf of the customer C1 (101) who created the design.

  As for the price of the work paid by the customer C2 (102), as a breakdown, the craftsman M (100) is paid technical cost, labor cost, material cost, etc., and the customer C1 (101) is paid design reference fee. Further, exemplifying a specific amount in the above flow, it is assumed that the price of the work paid to the craftsman M (100) by the customer C1 (101) who created the original design in step S103 is 100,000 yen. After that, in step S109, it is assumed that the customer C2 (102) orders with reference to the design of the customer C1 (101) and pays 120,000 yen to the craftsman M (100) for the work made of different materials. The difference of 20,000 yen in this case is the material cost, and the price of the work finished using the same material as the work of the customer C1 (101) is, for example, 100,000 yen. In step S111, the customer C2 (102) pays a design reference fee to the customer C1 (101). For example, if the rate is 3%, it will be 3600 yen for 120,000 payments.

  The design reference fee can be reduced by transferring money to the account of the customer C1 (101) or by transferring predetermined points instead of money. The points may be managed to be stored for each customer C (C1, C2,...) At the server of the service provider 103, and a predetermined preferential service can be obtained for each number of points. The number of points earned can be used for payments from the next time.

  By the way, the uniqueness (originality) of the work created by the customer C1 (101) can be certified by the craftsman M (100) or certified by a third party organization. Similarly, the craftsman M (100) or a third party organization can recognize the uniqueness of each design with respect to the design reference fee, and the rate based on the recognized uniqueness can be set.

(Example of information processing for original works)
Next, a description will be given of the flow of information processing (registration, release, browsing, ordering, delivery, reduction of design reference fee, etc.) of a work produced by the original design with the above configuration. FIG. 6 is a flowchart showing an overview of the entire process from registration of a work to benefit payment. In FIG. 6, the relationship between the customers C1 (101) and C2 (102) and the craftsman M (100) described with reference to FIG. 2 will be described as an example.

  First, an original design work created by the customer C1 (101) is produced by the craftsman M (100), and the craftsman M (100) registers the work in the work management server 301 (step S601). Specifically, information on the produced work is input to the catalog posting processing unit 402 and registered in the work master 411. Thereafter, this work is released (step S602). A work is published by being published in the catalog 201 that can be browsed on the network 304. These steps S601 and S602 are steps performed by the craftsman M (100) operating the terminal 303.

  Here, the first original design by the customer C1 (101) is released in steps S601 and S602. After that, when the customer C2 (102) makes a work whose design has been changed with reference to the design of the customer C1 (101), the original work is certified by the craftsman M (100) and registered as a new work. The work has been released. Details of the process of releasing the work will be described later.

  Next, the customer C2 (102) who desires a new work searches for the work (step S603). The customer C2 (102) can browse the catalog 201 on the network 304 and search for designs of various works published in the catalog 201. If there is a work with a favorite design, an estimate is requested (step S604). At the time of this request for quotation, it is possible to change the specifications of the work, such as changing the design or changing the material. As will be described later, the specification of the work can be changed after the order, such as a partial change in design or a change in material. The customer C2 (102) confirms the estimate created by the request and requests an order for the work (step S605). These steps S603 to S605 are steps performed by the customer C2 (102) operating the terminal 302. In response to the request for quotation in step S604, the craftsman M (100) performs an operation for creating the requested quotation and transmits an estimate to the customer C2 (102).

  Next, the craftsman M (100) produces the ordered work (step S609). When the production is completed, the customer C2 (102) is charged (step S606), and the work is sent to the customer C2 (102). ) (Step S610). An original authorization process is performed at the time of the request (step S607). As for the outline of the original certification process, the work designed by the customer C1 (101) first is certified as original. The original authorization of the design of the customer C1 (101) is set at the stage of step S602 using a check box on the screen similar to the invoice creation screen of FIG. 10 described later (FIG. 10 is a screen for the customer C2). The details are omitted. Thereafter, the original design of the work designed by the customer C2 (102) is not approved in the case of the same design as the design of the customer C1 (101), but the design is different due to the specification change to the design of the customer C1 (101). If certified, make an original certification. This authorization process is performed by the craftsman M (100), but a third party authorization organization may also authorize. Details of the original authorization process will be described later.

  Thereafter, the work created by the craftsman M (100) is delivered to the customer C2 (102) (step S610). Then, the customer C2 (102) performs a delivery confirmation process (step S608), and performs a privilege benefit process for the customer C1 (101) who has performed the original design (step S611). End the process. In the privilege benefit, the service provider returns a design reference fee at a predetermined rate to the customer C1 (101). Details of the processing of this benefit will be described later.

  In the above-described processing, the craftsman M (100) performs registration and publication (steps S601 and S602) on his / her own virtual store. However, the customer C1 (101) may perform registration and publication directly. In this case, since it is not possible to determine whether or not the design of the work is original, it is desirable to perform original certification by a craftsman M (100) or a third party certification organization. By the way, in the above processing, the example in which the customer C1 (101) designed the original of the work and the craftsman M (100) produced the original work has been described. There is also a configuration in which the original is designed, produced, and released on a virtual store.

  FIG. 7 is a diagram illustrating a work registration screen displayed during the work registration process. The work management server 301 transmits and displays the work registration screen 700 to the terminal (in this example, the terminal 303 of the craftsman M (100)) during the processing in step S601. In the above example, the original design work created by the customer C1 (101) is registered by the craftsman M (100) with the work management server 301. Not limited to this, the craftsman M (100) can also create and create an original work and register it in the work management server 301. On the work registration screen 700, a store name of a preset virtual shop is displayed, and work information 701 can be input. The work information 701 includes a work name, a work photo, a reference price, a work description, and the like. The work photo may be link destination information of an image in the catalog 201. The work information 701 is registered as a new record in the work master 411 by operating the registration button 702.

  FIG. 8 is a diagram illustrating a work search screen displayed during the work search process. The work management server 301 transmits and displays this work search screen 800 to the terminal (in the above example, the terminal 302 of the customer C2 (102)) during the processing in step S603. The initial screen of the work search screen 800 is a store list screen 801, in which store information 811 of each store is displayed. The store information 811 includes the store name, profile, etc. of each virtual store. The profile includes store information such as the type of work being handled.

  Then, when a specific store (for example, store 100) is selected as illustrated, a work list screen 802 handled by the selected store 100 is displayed. Work information 821 is displayed on the work list screen 802. The work information 821 includes a work name, a work photo, a reference price, and the like of each work.

  Then, when a specific work (for example, desk 100) is selected as shown in the figure, a work information screen 803 of the selected work desk 100 is displayed. In the work information screen 803, work detailed information 831 is displayed. The detailed work information 831 includes a work name, a work photo, a description of the work, a reference price, and the like of each work. When the customer C2 (102) wishes to purchase the detailed product information 831 by using the detailed product information 831, the customer C2 (102) requests an estimate by operating the estimate request sending button 832. By operating an estimate request sending button 832, an estimate request is transmitted from the terminal 302 of the customer C 2 (102) to the work management server 301.

  FIG. 9 is a diagram illustrating an estimate request screen displayed during the estimate request process. Upon receiving the request for quotation from the customer C2 (102), the work management server 301 transmits a request for quotation 900 for the corresponding work to the terminal 302 of the customer C2 (102) during the process in step S604. The estimate request screen 900 displays the customer C2 (102) as the estimate request information 911, the date of the request, the store name, and the work name of the searched design (desk 100). Of this estimate request information 911, the customer C2 (102) can input the desired price, desired delivery date, and request. In the request column, for example, whether or not there is a change to the original design can be described. If there is no description in the request column, the original design will be produced. In addition, you can request that the material is described and only the material is changed in the original design. When the customer C2 (102) confirms the operation input and operates the estimate request sending button 912, an estimate request is transmitted from the terminal 302 of the customer C2 (102) to the work management server 301.

  The work management server 301 adds a new record with a new transaction ID (eg, TR100) to the transaction information master 412 in response to the request for quotation. At this time, the added record is registered with information indicating that the work name (desk 100) of the new work referred to was used as a reference regardless of the originality of the newly created work (desk 200). It has become so.

  If the customer C2 (102) makes a request for quotation using the quotation request screen 900 shown in FIG. 9, and the quotation created by the craftsman M (100) is confirmed by the customer C2 (102), the customer C2 (102) Uses the order screen (not shown) to order a work (step S605). Thereby, the craftsman M (100) produces the work (step S609), and when the production is completed, the customer C2 (102) is charged (step S606). The work management server 301 adds a new record of contents for each processing such as quotation confirmation, order, and billing and delivery described later to the corresponding transaction ID in the transaction information master 412 after requesting a quotation.

  FIG. 10 is a diagram showing a bill creation screen displayed during billing processing. Upon receiving a billing request from the craftsman M (100), the work management server 301 transmits a bill creation screen 1000 of the corresponding work to the terminal 303 of the craftsman M (100) during the billing process in step S606. The invoice creation screen 1000 has a shop name, transaction ID, billing date and time, the purchaser name of the customer C2 (102) who is the purchaser, a reference work (desk 100) which is an original design work, as the billing information 1011. The production item (desk 200), the amount charged, and the delivery date are displayed. Of the billing information 1011, the payment due date 1012 can be input by the craftsman M (100).

  A check box 1013 for original work authorization is provided at the bottom of the billing information 1011. When the craftsman M (100) recognizes that the work (desk 200) produced this time has originality, the craftsman M (100) checks this check box 1013. The work (desk 200) produced this time is registered as a new record of the work master 411 as a new original work. After confirming the contents of the billing information 1011, the craftsman M (100) transmits billing information 1011 from the terminal 303 of the craftsman M (100) to the work management server 301 by operating the billing send button 1014.

  FIG. 11 is a flowchart showing the processing procedure of the billing process (including the original authorization process). Processing contents executed by the purchase information processing unit 312 of the work management server 301 will be described. Upon receiving the billing information 1011 on the bill creation screen 1000 shown in FIG. 10 from the terminal 303 of the craftsman M (100), the work management server 301 starts the billing process shown in FIG.

  First, a new record (TR100) obtained by numbering the transaction ID displayed on the invoice creation screen 1000 shown in FIG. 10 is added to the transaction information in the transaction information master 412 (step S1101). Next, the transaction type representing the billing process and the billing information 1011 are recorded in the record (TR100) (step S1102). Next, the original authorization processing unit 401 determines whether or not the original work authorization is checked (step S1103). If there is a check of original work authorization (step S1103: Yes), an identifier (Y) indicating that the design is original is recorded in the record (TR100) in the original section (step S1104), and the processing after step S1105 is sequentially performed. Run it. On the other hand, if there is no check of original work authorization (step S1103: No), an identifier (N) indicating that the design is not original is recorded in the record (TR100) in the original section (step S1110), and the process of step S1109 is performed. Transition.

  If there is an original work authorization check in step S1103 (step S1103: Yes), a new record recording the new work name (desk 200) is added to the work master 411 (step S1105). Thereafter, the work name, the store name, the price, the reference work name, the original classification (Y), the publication classification (N) indicating the presence / absence of publication in the catalog 201, and the publication classification (N) are recorded on the record desk 200. (Step S1106). Moreover, a new record (for example, privilege benefit customer C2) is added to the privilege master 413, and the purchaser name corresponding to the purchaser on the display screen and the new product name (desk 100) added to the product master 411 are recorded ( Step S1107).

  Next, the new work (desk 100) added to the work master 411 is recorded in the privilege work name of the new record (TR100) of the transaction information in the transaction information master 412 (step S1108). Thereafter, the terminal 302 of the customer C2 (102) who is the purchaser is notified of the charge (step S1109), and the series of processing ends.

  FIG. 12A is a diagram illustrating the contents of the work master. As shown in the figure, the work master 411 is composed of information on a work name, a store name, a work photo, a work description, a price, an original category, a publication category, a purchaser, and a public category. FIG. 12B is a diagram illustrating the contents of the catalog master. The contents of the catalog master 421 are obtained by extracting the work name, store name, work photo, work description, price, and the like from the work master 411 and are posted as the catalog 201. In the billing process shown in FIG. 10 and FIG. 11, the record addition and recording processes indicated by a in the figure of the work master 411 are performed.

  FIG. 13 is a diagram showing the contents of the transaction information master. As shown in the figure, the transaction information master 412 includes a transaction ID, a transaction type, a store name, a purchaser, a production work name, a price, a delivery date, a request, a specification, a payment date, a delivery date, an original classification, a publication classification, and a reference work name. It consists of each information of the privilege work name and the transaction date. At the time of the processing of the estimate request shown in FIG. 9, the record addition and recording processes indicated by b in the figure of the transaction information master 412 are performed. Further, at the time of invoice creation processing shown in FIG. 10, processing such as addition and recording of records indicated by c in the figure of the transaction information master 412 is performed.

  FIG. 14 is a diagram showing the contents of the privilege master. The privilege master 413 includes a privilege work master 413a, privilege transaction information 413b, and a privilege rate master 413c. The privilege work master 413a is constituted by information on the benefit payment customer and the original work name. The privilege transaction information 413b is composed of each information of privilege transaction ID, privilege benefit customer, original work name, transaction type, amount, transaction date, financial institution, branch number, account number, benefit date, and benefit application. The privilege rate master 413c includes information on the privilege rate (reduction rate of design reference fee). At the time of the billing process shown in FIGS. 10 and 11, processing such as addition and recording of a record indicated by d in the figure of the privilege work master 413a is performed.

  FIG. 15 is a diagram showing a delivery confirmation screen displayed during delivery confirmation processing. The work management server 301 sends the work (delivery confirmation screen 1500 of the corresponding work to the terminal 302 of the customer C2 (102) by the operation of the customer C2 (102) after the delivery of the work (step S608). The delivery confirmation screen 1500 includes a purchaser name (customer C2), a transaction ID (TR100), delivery confirmation information 1501 (invoice date, store name, reference work (desk 100) that is an original design work, production work) Name (desk 200), billing amount, delivery date, original authorization information, original work name), delivery date 1502, original work placement category 1503, and delivery confirmation button 1504 are displayed. 10 is the same as the billing information 1011 at the time of billing described using 10. The delivery date 1502 of the work is determined by the customer C2 (102). It has to be able to work input.

  Also, in the posting category, it is specified whether or not the purchaser (customer C2) places the work (desk 200) in the catalog 201 so that other purchasers can view it. Not only this but the craftsman M (100) who received the prior request from the purchaser (customer C2) can also designate the publication in the catalog 201. By checking the check box of this posting category 1503, posting of the work (desk 200) in the catalog 201 is permitted. When the customer C2 (102) confirms the contents of the delivery confirmation information 1501 and then operates the delivery confirmation button 1504, the delivery confirmation information 1501 is transmitted from the terminal 302 of the customer C2 (102) to the work management server 301. The

Here, the process and operation until the work (desk 200) can be viewed by another purchaser will be described.
1. The purchaser (customer C2) receives the original certification from the craftsman M (100). Specifically, by checking the original work authorization check box 1013 on the invoice creation screen 1000 shown in FIG. 10, the original classification (Y) of the work master 411 shown in FIG. 12-1 is set. The
2. Thereafter, the purchaser (customer C2) who received the original authorization permits the posting. Specifically, on the delivery confirmation screen 1500 shown in FIG. 15, by checking a check box 1503 of the original work placement category, as shown in a ′ of FIG. Y) is set.
3. Thereafter, the craftsman M (100) adds a description of the work and registers the catalog 201. Specifically, by operating the work registration screen 700 shown in FIG. 7 and operating the registration button 702, the public classification (Y) of the work master 411 is set as shown in a "of FIG. 12-1. Is done.

In the work registration screen 700 shown in FIG. 7 at the time of the work registration process, the difference between the work produced by the craftsman M (100) and the work produced by the craftsman M (102) by the order of the customer C is described above. 1. This is caused by the presence or absence of the invoice creation screen 1000 (the charge is not generated for the work produced independently by the craftsman M (100)). Therefore, the service provider 103 determines the handling of the original classification for the work produced independently by the craftsman M (100). In addition, the delivery confirmation screen 1500 is the above-mentioned 2. The conditions for publication permission will be decided, but the work produced by craftsman M (100) on the work registration screen 700 is a self-ordering and publication purpose operation, so the publication classification (Y) is fixed. It becomes. Thus, there are the following two cases as conditions for allowing other purchasers to view the original work.
The posting category is (Y).
The disclosure category is (Y).

  FIG. 16 is a flowchart showing a delivery confirmation and privilege benefit processing procedure. Processing contents executed by the purchase information processing unit 312 of the work management server 301 will be described. Upon receiving the delivery confirmation information 1501 on the delivery confirmation screen 1500 shown in FIG. 15 from the terminal 302 of the customer C2 (102), the work management server 301 activates the delivery and privilege benefit processing shown in FIG.

  First, a new record (TR100) obtained by numbering the transaction ID displayed on the delivery confirmation screen 1500 shown in FIG. 15 is added to the transaction information in the transaction information master 412 (step S1601). Next, the transaction type representing delivery processing and delivery confirmation information 1501 are recorded in the record (TR100) (step S1602). Next, the original authorization processing unit 401 determines whether or not the original classification of the delivery confirmation information 1501 is Y (step S1603). If the original classification is Y (step S1603: Yes), the catalog posting processing unit 402 determines whether there is a check for screen posting (step S1604), and if the original classification is N (step S1604: No). ), Step S1620 is executed.

  In step S1604, if there is a screen posting check (step S1604: Yes), the original category (Y) and the posting category (Y) are recorded in this record (step S1605), and if there is no screen posting check (step S1604). S1604: No), step S1621 is executed.

  After execution of step S1605, the privilege benefit processing unit 403 acquires the privilege work name (desk 100) of the billing information with the same transaction ID (step S1606), and the work that matches the privilege work name that acquired the placement category (Y). It records in the record of the master 411 (step S1607). Through the processing in steps S1606 and S1607, the purchaser's permission for the original work authorized in the billing process is recorded.

  If the original classification is N in step S1603 (step S1603: No), the original classification (N) and the posting classification (N) are recorded in the record (step S1620), and the process proceeds to step S1608. If there is no check for screen posting in step S1604 (step S1604: No), the original category (Y) and the posting category (N) are recorded in this record (step S1621), and the process proceeds to step S1608.

  After step S1607, it is determined whether or not a reference work name is specified (step S1608), and if specified (step S1608: Yes), the original classification of the reference work name is acquired from the work master 411 (step S1608). S1609). If the reference work name is not specified (step S1608: No), the process ends.

  After the processing in step S1609, it is determined whether the original classification of the reference work name is original (Y) (step S1610). Here, if the original classification is Y (step S1610: Yes), the privilege benefit processing unit 403 records the delivery confirmation information in the privilege transaction information 413b as the privilege information of the reference work name (step S1611). A certain customer C1 (101) is notified that the benefit has been confirmed (step S1612), and the series of processes is terminated. The transaction type in step S1611 is benefit confirmation, and the amount is calculated from price × privilege rate (return rate). On the other hand, if the original classification is not Y (step S1610: No), the process proceeds to the end. By the processing of steps S1611, S1612, benefit information for the benefit for the privileged work (desk 100) for which the benefit benefit has been confirmed is recorded. The benefit rate (reduction rate) may be set the same for all works, or the privilege rate may be set higher as the originality is recognized at the time of design certification. It becomes a privilege rate according to the degree of evaluation.

  FIG. 17 is a diagram showing an inquiry screen for original work information of his work by a customer. The privilege benefit processing unit 403 of the work management server 301 displays and outputs an original work confirmation screen 1700 of the customer C1 (101) on the terminal 302 when the customer C1 (101) operates the terminal 302. In the example shown in the figure, benefit benefit information 1701 is displayed as a state after the benefit is provided for the work (desk 100). As the benefit benefit information 1701, the original work name (desk 100) and the benefit benefit amount (2100 yen) are displayed. In the example shown in the figure, the customer C1 (101) inputs the payee information 1702 (financial institution, branch number, account number) and operates the benefit application button 1703 to perform transfer processing to the account for which the benefit amount is designated. it can.

  FIG. 18 is a flowchart illustrating a privilege benefit processing procedure. When the customer C2 (102) who requests benefit payment operates the benefit application button 1703 on the screen of FIG. 17, the benefit benefit processing unit 403 of the work management server 301 executes the following processing.

  First, it is determined whether the applied amount (application amount) exceeds a predetermined minimum application amount (step S1801). When the application amount exceeds the minimum application amount (step S1801: Yes), a new record with a new transaction privilege ID is added to the privilege transaction information 413b of the privilege master 413 (step S1802). On the other hand, if the application amount is equal to or less than the minimum application amount (step S1801: No), a message indicating that the benefit application cannot be made is displayed (step S1810), and the process is terminated. For example, in the above example, when the minimum application amount is set to 1000 yen, it is determined that the application is possible because the benefit payment amount is 2100 yen.

  After step S1802, the transaction type representing the application for benefit payment and the screen information are recorded in the created record (step S1803), the service provider is notified that the benefit application has been made (step S1804), and a series of processes Exit.

  Bonus benefits can be configured not only to save money, but also to save points equivalent to the amount and draw points by converting the points to money, or to make a discount on subsequent purchases based on the saved points. .

  As shown in the processing described above, the flow of information processing of a work is such that the contents of the process are the work master 411 each time processing such as work registration, publication, browsing, ordering, delivery, and reduction of design reference fee is performed. Thus, the current production status of the work, information on the design source that has been referred to, and the like can be acquired by accessing from the external terminals 302 and 303.

  In the above configuration, if there is a referenced design, the benefit (design reference fee) is reduced for the work (consideration reduction for the design of the previous generation), but the design reference system goes back to multiple generations. You can also In this case, it is possible not only to reduce the value of the work of the previous generation, but also to reduce the price retroactively to the generation, or to increase the reduction rate as it goes back.

(About management of original works)
Next, management of original works performed by the original authorization processing unit 401 will be described. According to the above configuration, a work once certified as original can receive a benefit every time it is referred to when a new work is produced. In addition, new works (new works) that have been partially redesigned with reference to the design of the original work will receive a benefit benefit each time the new work is referenced, once the original certification is received. Can do. In this case, the work management server 301 can easily know which original work is the original design by managing the design reference generations of the original work and change the design from the original work. You will be able to grasp the system of each work.

  FIG. 19 is a diagram illustrating a system branch for design reference of an original work. As shown in the drawing, it is first assumed that the design of the work (original 1) 1901 is recognized as original. It is assumed that original 1-1 (1902) and original 1-2 (1903), which are new works, are produced based on the design reference of original 1 (1901) and are recognized as originals. In this case, a tree that branches from the original 1 to the original 1-1 and the original 1-2 is formed. If there is a work 1-1-1 (1904) referring to the original 1-1, a tree is also formed between the original 1-1 and the work 1-1-1. However, if it is determined that the work 1-1-1 is not original, for example, a “x” mark is added to the tree, indicating that the work 1-1-1 has no originality.

  A tree is similarly formed for original 2 (1911). Furthermore, the original 3 (1920) may be produced as a work combining the original 1 and the original 2 respectively. In this case, the original 3 forms a tree with branches extending from the original 1 and the original 2 respectively.

  In this way, it is possible to trace the system of works by performing original certification for each work produced, and it is possible to easily search what kind of work the original original work is. become able to. The system branch shown in FIG. 19 is created based on the transaction information for each work recorded in the transaction information master 412 shown in FIG. 13, and is recorded in the work master 411 and the like and output to the external terminals 302 and 303. be able to. This system branch makes it possible to easily search for the state of the design at the end where the design can be certified as an original work. By these, the originality of each work can be maintained and similar works can be eliminated. FIG. 19 conceptually shows the system branches, but the original authorization processing unit 401 can display the system branches corresponding to FIG. 19 on the screen, and can easily guide the operator. Can do. Further, by selecting each work, the details of the work can be displayed on the screen from the work master 411.

  By the way, in the above-described embodiment, the original authorization of the work is performed by the craftsman M (100) who produces the work. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and it is possible to adopt a configuration in which the certification is made by a third-party organization, or a configuration in which a third-party organization first authorizes an original work after the craftsman M (100) is certified. As a result, the originality (originality) of the work can be further enhanced.

  In the above embodiment, a desk is given as an example of a custom-made work. However, the present invention is not limited to this desk, chair, table, etc. It can be applied to tangible works such as diorama. Furthermore, the present invention can also be applied to intangible works such as arranged trips where a travel plan is created by order.

  Furthermore, in the above configuration, the description has been made on the assumption that all the works to be produced have an original design. However, even if the work has no originality, that is, a copy work having the same design as the original design is allowed. It can also be configured so that the designer can set whether or not to do so. In this case, it becomes possible to produce a large number of works with the same design. In addition, in this case, the above-described reduction of the design reference fee may be set at a rate corresponding to the number of works to be produced.

  As described above, according to the design management device, the design management program, and the design management system, it is possible to increase the chances of design creation for various works, especially through a virtual store on a network such as the Internet. It will be possible to provide a mechanism for easily suggesting creations. At the same time, the design of the proposed and produced work, including the design approval status, is released on the network, thereby preventing unauthorized copying of the design and maintaining the originality.

  The design management method such as reduction of the design reference fee described in the present embodiment can be realized by executing a program prepared in advance on a computer such as a personal computer or a workstation. This program is recorded on a computer-readable recording medium such as a hard disk, a flexible disk, a CD-ROM, an MO, and a DVD, and is executed by being read from the recording medium by the computer. The program may be a transmission medium that can be distributed via a network such as the Internet.

  As described above, the design management device, the design management program, and the design management system according to the present invention are useful for all services that produce a new work while referring to the original design while maintaining the design of the work. In particular, it is suitable for a network business system in which works are disclosed on a network such as the Internet and new works are produced.

It is a schematic diagram which shows the flow of the service of distribution of the original work by this invention. It is a schematic diagram showing the flow of design reference fee reduction. It is a block diagram which shows the structure of the whole system concerning the management of the design of this invention. It is the block diagram which extracted the characteristic function by this invention among the functions which the server shown in FIG. 3 performs.
