Hereinafter, embodiments 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 elements are designated by the same number or reference numeral throughout the description of the embodiment.

(Basic concept / basic configuration)
FIG. 1 is a diagram illustrating an outline of an in-warehouse product sales system according to an embodiment of the present invention.
The in-warehouse product sales system 1 is connected to the in-warehouse product sales device 10 and the in-warehouse product sales device 10 for selling the products entrusted by the shipper and stored in the warehouse to consumers via a network, and is connected to the warehouse. It includes a warehouse management device 20 that manages stored products, and a terminal 30 that is operated by a consumer who visits the store.

In the warehouse product sales system 1, the warehouse product sales device 10 is a cloud server in the present embodiment, and is managed by, for example, a warehouse manager (distribution company or the like).
The warehouse management device 20 manages, for example, products that are stored and shipped from a plurality of shippers (in the example shown in FIG. 1, shipper A, shipper B, shipper C: retail company, retail group, etc.). There is.

The in-warehouse product sales system 1 manages the storage period of the products entrusted by the shipper and stored in the warehouse. Further, the in-warehouse product sales system 1 determines whether or not the storage period satisfies a predetermined condition (for example, whether the storage period is equal to or longer than a preset period).

Then, when the warehouse product sales system 1 determines that a predetermined condition (for example, the storage period is longer than a preset period) is satisfied, the consumer selects the product satisfying the predetermined condition. Will be listed in the EC market where you can purchase.

Further, the in-warehouse product sales system 1 recognizes that the consumer has visited a store related to the shipper (in the example shown in FIG. 1, a store related to the shipper A related to the shipper A). Specifically, the terminal 30 operated by the consumer who visits the store reads the two-dimensional bar code or the like placed in the store, and the consumer can read the two-dimensional bar code or the like based on the information indicated by the two-dimensional bar code or the like. The store visit information indicating that the store has been visited is transmitted to the product sales device 10 in the warehouse. In addition, when the terminal 30 operated by the consumer who visits the store connects to the Wi-fi SSID (Service Set Identifier) arranged in the store, or the AP (AP) arranged at the entrance / exit of the store. When communicating with the Access Point), the store visit information may be transmitted to the product sales device 10 in the warehouse.

When the store visit information is received from the terminal 30, the warehouse product sales device 10 sells only the products exhibited by the shipper related to the store to the consumer in the EC market. In the example shown in FIG. 1, the store visit information indicating that the consumer has visited the shipper A-related store and visited the shipper A-related store is transmitted from the terminal 30 to the warehouse product sales device 10. Therefore, in the EC market, only the products exhibited by the shipper A are sold.

For example, in the in-warehouse product sales system 1, a consumer purchases a product in the EC market on the terminal 30, and the purchased product is delivered from the warehouse to a place designated by the consumer (for example, at home). Will be done.

According to such an in-warehouse product sales system 1, a consumer can purchase a product that is stored in the warehouse and satisfies a predetermined condition only when he / she visits an actual store.
Therefore, for the store, it is possible to create a motivation for the customer to come to the store, to increase the sales of EC sales, and for the logistics company, it is possible to increase the shipment of products in the warehouse.

(Functional configuration)
FIG. 2 is a diagram showing a functional configuration of a product sales system in a warehouse according to an embodiment of the present invention.
The warehouse product sales system 1 includes a warehouse product sales device 10, a warehouse management device 20 connected to the warehouse product sales device 10 via a network, a terminal 30, and a plurality of storages constituting a distributed management ledger. A unit 100 is provided. In the present embodiment, the warehouse management device 20 will be described as a device different from the warehouse product sales device 10, but the warehouse management device 20 will be omitted, and the function of the warehouse management device 20 described later will be described as the warehouse product sales. The device 10 may be provided.

(Functional configuration of product sales equipment in the warehouse)
The warehouse product sales device 10 includes a management unit 11, a determination unit 12, an exhibition unit 13, a recognition unit 14, and a sales unit 15.

The management unit 11 manages the storage period of the products entrusted by the shipper and stored in the warehouse. In addition, the management unit 11 manages the product expiration date set for the products stored in the warehouse.

Specifically, the management unit 11 receives product information related to the product from the warehouse management device 20 for each product brought into the warehouse, generates and updates a product management database (DB) based on the product information, and has a plurality of products. It is distributed, recorded and managed in the storage unit 100.

FIG. 3 is a diagram schematically showing a product management database according to an embodiment of the present invention.
Product information includes product identification information that identifies the product, the shipper and shipper's affiliation (group to which the shipper belongs, etc.), the delivery date of the product, the product expiration date (for example, expiration date, quality guarantee deadline, etc.), Contains information indicating the selling price, etc.

Based on the product information, the management unit 11 associates the product identification information with the shipper and the affiliation of the shipper, the delivery date of the product, the product deadline, the selling price, and the like, and generates a product management DB. Then, the management unit 11 updates the product management DB at predetermined intervals (for example, every day, etc.). Specifically, the management unit 11 calculates the storage period, which is the number of days from the date of delivery to the warehouse to the date of renewal, based on the delivery date and the renewal date, and calculates the storage period in the product management DB. Correspond to product identification information. Further, the management unit 11 calculates the number of remaining product expiration days, which is the number of days from the updated date to the product expiration date, based on the renewal date and the product expiration date, and identifies the calculated product expiration date in the product management DB. Correspond to information.

More specifically, with reference to FIG. 3, on the update date 2020/5/31, for example, in the case of the product at the top of FIG. 3 (product identification information: A ... 01), the management unit 11 has a control unit 11. In the renewal process, 92 days is calculated as the storage period, which is the number of days from the delivery date (2020/2/29) to the renewal date (2020/5/31), and is associated with the product identification information.

Further, on the update date 2020/5/31, for example, in the case of the product at the top of FIG. 3 (product identification information: A ... 01), the management unit 11 updates the date (2020) in the update process. 8 days is calculated as the number of remaining days of the product expiration date, which is the number of days from / 5/31) to the product expiration date (2020/6/8), and is associated with the product identification information.

In addition, the management unit 11 records and manages at least the contents of transactions related to listing and sales of products in a distributed ledger.
Specifically, for example, the management unit 11 has a hash of data obtained by accumulating product management DBs updated at predetermined intervals (for example, data including all product management DBs from 2020/5/1 to 2020/5/31). A value is generated, and the generated hash value is stored in each of the plurality of storage units 100, which is an example of the distributed ledger.

Further, in this case, the management unit 11 extracts the hash value of the data accumulated by the product management DB from the plurality of storage units 100 at an arbitrary timing (for example, the timing of updating the product management DB). The extracted hash values may be compared with each other. If it is normal, the hash values extracted from the plurality of storage units 100 are all the same. However, for example, if the hash value stored in any of the storage units 100 has been tampered with or has not been normally stored, they will not all be the same. In this case, the management unit 11 determines that half or more of the plurality of hash values extracted from the plurality of storage units 100 are the same hash value as a normal hash value. Further, in this case, the management unit 11 may compare hash values different from each other and specify the timing at which the difference occurs from the difference. With such a configuration, it is possible to improve the accuracy and security of the product management DB.

The determination unit 12 determines whether or not the storage period satisfies a predetermined condition. Further, the determination unit 12 determines whether or not the product deadline satisfies a predetermined condition. Specifically, the judgment unit 12 refers to the product management DB and the listing judgment database (DB) according to the update of the product management DB, and each product stored in the product management DB has a storage period and a product expiration date. It is determined whether or not the predetermined condition is satisfied, and the product satisfying the predetermined condition is extracted.

FIG. 4 is a diagram schematically showing an exhibition determination database according to an embodiment of the present invention.
In the listing judgment DB, information indicating the lower limit of the storage period of each level, the upper limit of the remaining days of the product expiration date of each level, and the discount rate are associated with the judgment levels of a plurality of stages.

In the example shown in FIG. 4, the determination unit 12 refers to the listing determination DB, and in the product management DB, for example, the storage period of a certain product is 30 days or more and less than 60 days, or the remaining days of the product expiration date. If is 21 days or more and 30 days or less, it is judged to be level 1.

If the level determined based on the storage period of a certain product and the level determined based on the number of remaining days of the product expiration date are different, the determination unit 12 determines that the higher level is the level of the product. Specifically, if the storage period of a certain product is 30 days (level 1) and the remaining product expiration date is 20 days (level 2), the judgment unit 12 sets the level of the product to level 2. to decide.

If the storage period is less than 30 days and the remaining product expiration date is 31 days or more, the determination unit 12 determines that the predetermined condition is not satisfied.
Further, the determination unit 12 may make a determination based only on the storage period, or may determine the level by adding conditions other than the storage period and the number of remaining days of the product expiration to the predetermined conditions.

Returning to FIG. 2, when it is determined that the predetermined condition is satisfied, the exhibition unit 13 sells the product satisfying the predetermined condition in the EC market where the consumer can purchase. Specifically, the exhibition unit 13 generates EC market data for holding an EC market for selling products that the determination unit 12 determines to satisfy a predetermined condition. This EC market data is generated for each shipper or each shipper's affiliation, and is data that enables the EC market screen to be displayed on the terminal 30 by the consumer accessing the terminal 30.

Further, the exhibition unit 13 determines a price according to the level determined by the determination unit 12 for each product with reference to the exhibition determination DB (see FIG. 3), and EC market data including information indicating the determined price. To generate. Specifically, according to the example shown in FIG. 3, in the exhibition unit 13, for example, the determination unit 12 determines the price of the product determined to be level 1 to 90% of the list price, and determines that the product is level 2. Set the price to 80% of the list price. That is, the exhibition unit 13 can change the exhibition conditions according to the level. In this way, by discounting the prices of the products exhibited in the EC market, it is possible to increase the sales of EC sales.

Further, the exhibition unit 13 can change whether to sell only the shipper's product or to sell the product of another shipper in the group to which the shipper belongs. The exhibiting unit 13 may decide whether to exhibit only the shipper's products or the products of other shippers in the group to which the shipper belongs, by arbitrary settings such as settings according to the shipper's request.

The recognition unit 14 recognizes that the consumer has visited a store related to the shipper. Specifically, the recognition unit 14 obtains information indicating the store visited by the consumer (information indicating which shipper is related to the store) and the consumer operating the terminal 30 from the terminal 30 operated by the consumer. When receiving the store visit information including the consumer identification information to be identified, it is recognized that the consumer has visited the store related to the shipper shown in the store visit information.

When the sales unit 15 recognizes that the consumer has visited a store related to the shipper in the recognition unit 14, only the products exhibited by the shipper related to the store, or the shipper belongs to the exhibition unit 13. If it is decided to sell the products of other shippers of the group to be sold, in addition to the products of the shipper, the products of other shippers of the group to which the shipper belongs are also sold to the consumer.

Specifically, the sales department 15 displays the EC market screen of the store's shipper or the shipper's affiliation shown in the store visit information among the EC market data generated by the exhibition unit 13 on the terminal 30 that has transmitted the store visit information. Send the EC market data that can be displayed. As a result, the EC market screen is displayed on the terminal 30, and the consumer can purchase the products exhibited on the EC market screen.

In addition, the sales unit 15 receives purchase information indicating that a certain product is to be purchased from the terminal 30. When the sales unit 15 receives the purchase information, it performs payment processing based on the monetary value or the value specified by the shipper (for example, points that can be used in the shipper, the store to which the shipper belongs, or the EC market). Further, when the payment process is completed, the sales department 15 includes the product identification information of the product for which the payment process has been performed, the purchaser information indicating the name and name of the consumer who purchased the product, and the designated delivery location of the purchased product. The product shipping request information including at least the delivery location information indicating the above is transmitted to the warehouse management device 20. Further, the management unit 11 deletes the information about the product for which the payment process has been completed by the sales unit 15 from the product management DB (see FIG. 3).

The warehouse product sales device 10 may store consumer information about consumers who can use the EC market in the storage unit in advance. The consumer information includes, for example, consumer identification information, consumer information such as a consumer's name and address, and information indicating the magnitude of the value (point) specified by the shipper. Further, the value (points) specified by the shipper is, for example, a predetermined amount (for example, 5 points) to the value associated with the consumer identification information included in the store visit information when the recognition unit 14 receives the store visit information. Etc.) may be added.

(Processing flow)
FIG. 5 is a diagram showing an in-warehouse product sales processing flow executed by the in-warehouse product sales system according to the embodiment of the present invention. In the present embodiment, the warehouse product sales process is executed by the warehouse product sales device 10.

In step S1, the determination unit 12 manages the storage period of the products that the management unit 11 generates and updates, and that is stored in the warehouse from the shipper (see FIG. 3) and the listing determination DB (FIG. 4). Refer to), determine whether or not each product stored in the product management DB satisfies a predetermined condition (level) for the storage period and the product expiration date, and extract the product satisfying the predetermined condition.

In step S2, the exhibition unit 13 generates EC market data for holding an EC market for selling products that the determination unit 12 determines to satisfy a predetermined condition. Further, the exhibition unit 13 determines a price according to the level determined by the determination unit 12 in step S1 for each product with reference to the exhibition determination DB (see FIG. 3), and includes information indicating the determined price. Generate EC market data.

In step S3, the recognition unit 14 receives store visit information including information indicating a store visited by the consumer (information indicating which shipper is related to the store) from the terminal 30 operated by the consumer.

In step S4, the sales unit 15 includes only the products exhibited by the shipper related to the store indicated by the information indicating the store included in the store visit information received by the recognition unit 14 in step S3, or in addition to the product of the shipper. The products of other shippers of the group to which the company belongs are also sold to consumers.

In step S5, the sales unit 15 receives purchase information indicating that a certain product is to be purchased from the terminal 30. When the sales unit 15 receives the purchase information, the sales unit 15 performs payment processing for the product.

In step S6, the sales unit 15 transmits the product shipping request information to the warehouse management device 20 when the payment process is completed in step S5. When the warehouse management device 20 receives the product shipping request information from the product sales device 10 in the warehouse, the warehouse management device 20 ships the product to the designated delivery location designated by the consumer (purchaser) based on the product shipping request information. Perform shipping processing.

6, FIG. 7 and FIG. 8 are diagrams showing display examples in the terminal of the in-warehouse product sales system according to the embodiment of the present invention.
When the consumer visits the store, as shown in FIG. 6, the consumer reads the two-dimensional bar code or the like arranged in the store with the terminal 30, and operates the "visit" button. As a result, the terminal 30 transmits the consumer information to the warehouse product sales device 10, and the warehouse product sales device 10 executes the process of step S3.

When the product sales device 10 in the warehouse executes the process of step S4, the terminal 30 receives the EC market data and displays the EC market screen as shown in FIG. 7.

On the EC market screen, a display indicating that the shipper is the EC market of the store that visited the store (A store flea market) and information on products that the determination unit 12 of the warehouse product sales device 10 has determined to satisfy a predetermined condition are displayed. Will be done.
The product information includes a photograph of the product (not shown), product identification information, a selling price according to the level determined by the determination unit 12, a discount rate for the list price according to the level determined by the determination unit 12, and the like.

Specifically, FIG. 7 is an EC market screen generated based on the product management DB shown in FIG. In the example shown in FIG. 3, the storage period and the remaining days of the product expiration are predetermined conditions (in the example shown in FIG. 4, the storage period is 30 days or more at level 1 or the remaining days of the product expiration is 30 or less at level 1). The products to be satisfied by the shipper A and the product to which the shipper A belongs are "product identification information: A ... 01", "product identification information: A ... 02", and "product identification information: B ... 01". .. Therefore, in the display example of the EC market screen shown in FIG. 7, these three products are displayed. As described above, the EC market screen has a function of detecting that a consumer has visited the store in the warehouse product sales device 10 and notifying what the shipper is selling.

Further, in the display frame of each product, the selling price in the EC market and the discount rate with respect to the list price are displayed. For example, the product at the top of FIG. 7 (product identification information: A ... 01) is level 3 when judged by the example of the exhibition determination DB shown in FIG. Therefore, the price is obtained by multiplying the fixed price "1,000 yen" of "product identification information: A ... 01" shown in the example of the product management DB shown in FIG. 3 by 70%, which is the discount rate of level 3. "700 yen" and "3 discount", which is the discount rate for the list price, are displayed.

In the example described in this embodiment, the exhibition unit 13 generates EC market data for each shipper or each shipper's affiliation, and the shipper of the store shown in the store visit information or the EC market to which the shipper belongs. The EC market data that enables the screen to be displayed is transmitted to the terminal 30. However, not limited to this, the exhibition unit 13 generates overall EC market data capable of displaying the products of all shippers who have deposited the products in the warehouse, and the overall EC market data is shown in the store visit information. The individual EC market screen that enables the display of the individual EC market screen filtered by the shipper or the product to which the shipper belongs may be transmitted to the terminal 30.

For example, on the EC market screen shown in FIG. 7, the consumer selects the product (product identification information: A ... 01) at the top of FIG. 7 to move to the product purchase screen shown in FIG. do.
On the product purchase screen, information on the product selected by the consumer and a "purchase" button are displayed. When the consumer operates this "purchase" button, the terminal 30 transmits the purchase information to the warehouse product sales device 10, and the warehouse product sales device 10 sequentially executes the processes of steps S5 and 6.

According to such an in-warehouse product sales system 1, a consumer can purchase a product that is stored in the warehouse and satisfies a predetermined condition only when he / she visits an actual store.
Therefore, for the store, it is possible to create a motivation for the customer to come to the store, to increase the sales of EC sales, and for the logistics company, it is possible to increase the shipment of products in the warehouse.

Further, according to the in-warehouse product sales system 1, the management unit 11 records a product management DB in which at least the contents of transactions related to listing and sales are stored in a plurality of storage units 100 as a distributed ledger. And manage. As a result, it is possible to prevent data loss due to falsification of the product management DB or damage to a part of the storage unit, so that the accuracy and security of the product management DB can be improved.

Further, according to the in-warehouse product sales system 1, the determination unit 12 determines whether or not the product expiration date satisfies a predetermined condition as well as the storage period of the product, and the product is delivered to the EC market according to this determination. Sell. As a result, it is possible to prevent the products stored in the warehouse from being expired and losing their product value.

Further, according to the in-warehouse product sales system 1, the exhibition unit 13 can change the exhibition conditions of the product according to the level determined by the determination unit 12. As a result, for example, it is possible to set a selling price according to the level, and it is possible to reflect the seller's intention to sell the product, for example, to lower the selling price of the unsold product for a longer period of time. ..
