JP7395800B2 - Logistics billing system, control method for logistics billing system, program and recording medium for logistics billing system - Google Patents

Description

The present invention relates to a billing system that charges facility usage costs in a logistics facility according to the frequency of use of the facility, a method for controlling the logistics billing system, a program for the logistics billing system, and Regarding recording media.

The current economic situation in Japan is that although the government has continued to actively implement fiscal stimulus since the change of government, it has still not been able to escape from the chaos that followed the bursting of the bubble economy, and has not been able to properly manage the excess corporate equipment that increased during the bubble period. By simply postponing the process to bring the level down, the actual situation is that corporate equipment has not been reduced, and as a result, the state of excess corporate equipment has continued. Furthermore, since the Japanese economy since the bubble period, statistically speaking, the economy has continued to experience negative growth in real terms, and many business owners are reluctant to build new corporate facilities.

However, even if a company has excess equipment, it does not mean that new equipment is unnecessary, nor does it mean that old equipment can support all new businesses. Therefore, it is not uncommon for companies to find new construction of facilities essential for business development in some cases. However, even in such a case, the possibility that Japan's economy will experience negative growth in the future remains unavoidable, so owning new company equipment as its own assets is fraught with many risks. You will have to deal with Therefore, although there is an option to reduce the above risks by, for example, treating corporate equipment as leased assets, due to the revision of standards regarding lease accounting, especially for companies above a certain size, the old lease accounting treatment Far from being a benefit, it is no different from owning real assets.

On the other hand, companies that develop and manufacture equipment for companies are also having a considerable impact on their business performance due to a decrease in the construction of new equipment due to such revisions to lease accounting standards. Furthermore, in fields such as the logistics field, where there is a strong demand for new equipment construction and reinforcement from recent entrants, management wants to introduce new equipment, but wants to limit the increase in actual assets owned as much as possible. This urgent voice is also being heard by logistics equipment manufacturing companies. On the other hand, in recent years in the field of distribution, business entities have emerged that provide all logistics operations in one package, as exemplified by third party logistics called 3PL. However, there is no certainty that this kind of 3PL will ultimately reduce the costs required for logistics operations. On the other hand, as shippers focus only on the functional use of logistics facilities and do not necessarily assume ownership of the assets, they tend to lose interest in equipment maintenance after the facility is introduced, and as a result, it is difficult to ensure stable equipment operation. There is also a risk that it may cause problems. In view of these social and economic conditions, the inventor of the present application proposes a third method of handling, which is neither owning the equipment in-house, nor accounting through leases, nor through 3PL. We have come up with a logistics billing processing system that charges companies and others using the facility according to the amount of time they actually use the facility.

The various circumstances in the logistics field and logistics facility manufacturing companies have been explained above, but a variety of further measures are required. Particularly with regard to the present application, simple and clear standards for billing are required.

In view of the need to suppress the increase in assets of companies that introduce new equipment, technical ideas have already been disclosed that use various methods to accurately grasp real estate investment in the future.

For example, when transporting prepared foods to large stores that have multiple logistics-related companies, this is a transportation management system that solves problems such as parking space problems at large stores, traffic congestion in the neighborhood, and noise generation. For example, as disclosed in Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2006-168885, prepared foods from multiple logistics-related companies to, for example, large stores are transported all at once through a logistics center using returnable containers. This solves problems such as parking spaces, traffic congestion, and noise generation, and also saves resources by reusing returnable containers and heat-insulating materials. By configuring it as a rental item, the logistics system becomes cheaper. Although the technical idea that can be provided to customers has already been disclosed, there is no specific disclosure regarding charging according to the amount used, as in this application, regarding the logistics facility itself, excluding returnable containers, heat-insulating materials, etc. It had not been done.

On the other hand, the incoming container 19351 that has been emptied by the article picking process 19341 is sent to the article collection downstream section 1935, collected 19352, and finally sent to the destination 19353. Further, after the shipping container 19331 is transported by truck to the customer, which is the shipping destination, it is finally transported, for example, to the receiving section 1931 by an incoming truck, sent to the upstream collection section 1933 19313, and then collected by the shipping container 19333. The Rukoto.

The outline of the processing according to the present application has been explained above using the logistics facility processing outline diagram 190, and next, the details of the processing will be explained. The frequency of use of each piece of equipment, such as the receiving section column 1931, the storage section column 1932, the upstream collection section 1933, the picking body section 1934, the downstream section column 1935, the collection section 1936, etc., is aggregated by customer, Calculate facility usage costs. For example, in the receiving department 1931, the time when the receiving truck 19311 has occupied the receiving location is stored in the arrival time column 725 and end time column 726 of the receiving truck management data table 70, and the information is stored in the receiving section 1931. For example, it is stored in the track exclusive time column 16214 of the billing management data table 160 and billed. In addition, when the same incoming truck processes the arrival of multiple customers and multiple goods, for example, divide the exclusive time of the receiving section 1931 of the truck by the total number of goods brought in by one truck, and calculate the result. The product of the total number of items transported at one time to the same customer may be calculated, and the result may be charged as the delivery time related to the arrival of goods. Alternatively, for example, the average exclusive time for one time may be calculated based on the past exclusive use record of the carry-in truck, etc., and may be used as the carry-in time. Furthermore, the incoming container storage time and the exclusive time of the shipping container 19331 in the storage section 1932 are stored in the incoming container storage time column 16209 and the incoming container exclusive time column 16208, for example, and are charged for the exclusive time in the same way as the incoming truck exclusive time. shall be taken as a thing. Note that billing in the picking main unit 1934 is based on past results, for example, and the time required for picking is calculated based on the number of articles picked in one minute, for example, in the picking time column of the billing management data table 160. 16211 and charge the fee. Furthermore, the charges in the upstream part 1933 and the downstream part 1935 are calculated based on past results by dividing the total number of shipped items by the receiving container and the shipping container. The average exclusive time for a container may be calculated, and the product of the average exclusive time and the total number of items transported to the same customer at one time may be used to determine the exclusive time. Regarding one shipment, for example, the upstream collection section 1933 sets a uniform time of 180 minutes, and, for example, the downstream collection section 1935 uniformly sets a time of 240 minutes. Alternatively, divide the amount equivalent to the rent for the above fixed time by the total number of receiving containers and shipping containers handled by the upstream collection section 1933 and the downstream collecting section 1935 during a certain period of time, and combine this result with the number of receiving containers and shipping containers for each customer. You may calculate the product and charge the fee. Regarding the number of the above-mentioned shipping containers, if the same receiving container stores items to be shipped to multiple customers, the number may be divided proportionally according to the number of items shipped to each customer. Furthermore, the same container may be used as the receiving container 19321 and the shipping container 19531 to improve efficiency. Furthermore, instead of collecting each container, single-use containers, such as cardboard containers, may be used. In this case, the cost of collecting each container is not included in the rent for the equipment in question, but the cost of processing cardboard, for example, will be added. Alternatively, it is possible to use no receiving or shipping containers at all.

As mentioned above, in this application, we have explained the method of calculating costs related to facility use based on the facility exclusive time. If so, the weight impact on the facility may be added to the cost of use. As a specific method, for example, the weight limit for each piece of equipment is calculated and stored in the weight limit column 1716 of the basic rent data table 170, and information regarding the premium when the weight limit is exceeded is stored in the weight premium column 1717, for example. Store in. From the information regarding the above-mentioned surcharge and each information regarding each gross weight stored in, for example, the gross weight column 826 by incoming container of the incoming cargo management data table 80 and the gross weight column 1229 by shipping article of the shipping management data table 120 by container, for example. It is assumed that the weight premium is calculated and stored, for example, in the weight premium column 1825 of the shipping customer billing amount data table 180.

One embodiment of the present application has been described above, and next, another embodiment of the one embodiment will be described according to the shipping quantity billing data table 200 shown in FIG. 20. The shipping quantity billing data table 200 includes a shipping quantity billing date column 201, a shipping quantity billing management column 202, a receiving section column 2031, a storage section column 2032, a collection upstream section column 2033, a picking body section column 2034, and a collection downstream section. It is composed of a department column 2035, a shipping department column 2036, etc. Furthermore, the shipping quantity accounting management column 202 further includes an equipment column 2021, a rent per article column 2022, a shipping quantity column 2023, a rent column 2024, and the like. Note that the shipping quantity billing data table 200 is based on information calculated from related information by a processor of the management device server 22, for example, according to a program stored in the management device DB 21 of the management system 20, or information calculated from the display of the management output device 23. The processor of the management device server 22 inputs information inputted by the operator from the keyboard of the management input device 24 according to the shipment quantity billing data table setting screen (not shown) displayed on the screen, for example, according to the program stored in the management device DB 21. etc., it shall be stored on the management device DB21. Further, it is assumed that the shipping quantity billing data table setting screen (not shown) has the same format as the shipping quantity billing data table 200. Furthermore, if necessary, a shipment count accounting data table display screen (not shown) according to the contents of the shipment count accounting data table 200 is displayed on, for example, the management output device 23 of the management system 20. Note that the shipping quantity billing data table 200 may be input and stored in the memory on the picking control system 30 side. Further, information input and stored on the management system 20 side may be transmitted to the picking control system 30 side, for example, via the network 10, and information input and stored on the picking control system 30 side may be transmitted to the management system 20 side. You can send it to someone else.

Next, the information stored in the shipping quantity billing data table 200 will be explained. The shipping unit billing date column 201 stores, for example, information such as “shipping unit billing date: 2016.02.01 Shipping customer code: SK001” as information such as the date that is subject to billing management. . In the shipment quantity accounting management column 202, the receiving section column 2031 contains, for example, "receiving section," the storage section column 2032 contains, for example, "storage section," the collection upstream section column 2033 contains, for example, "collection upstream section," and the picking body. For example, the section column 2034 stores information such as "picking main body section," the collection downstream section column 2035 stores, for example, "collection downstream section," and the shipping section column 2036 stores, for example, "shipping section." In the shipping quantity accounting management column 202, the equipment column 2021 contains "equipment", the rent per article column 2022 contains "rent per article", the shipped quantity column 2023 contains "quantity", and the rent column 2024 contains "equipment". The information "Rent" is stored respectively. Next, as specific information, for example, the rent per item column 2022 of the receiving department column 2031 contains the rent for a certain time in the receiving department divided by the number of goods received in the receiving department at a certain time in the past. Then, for example, 12.3 yen is calculated as the rent per item, and the information that the above calculation result is "12.3 yen" is stored. For example, the shipped quantity column 2023 contains information such as "389 pieces" as the number of the corresponding shipped goods, and the rent column 2024 contains "4,785 yen" as the product of the above "12.3 yen" and "389 pieces". ”, respectively. Similarly, the corresponding information is stored in each of the storage section column 2032, collection upstream section column 2033, picking body section column 2034, collection downstream section column 203, and shipping section column 2036. In the above description, the information stored in each column of the shipment quantity billing data table 200 includes, for example, character codes in kanji, alphabets, and numbers. Alternatively, information such as a uniquely set code may be added to the character code string.

As described above, in another embodiment of the present application, the rent is calculated based on the total number of items delivered to the same customer at one time. Note that the total number of items transported to the same customer at one time is calculated from, for example, the number of items picked stored in the number of items picked column 16210 of the billing management data table 160. Furthermore, a weight premium may be added in another embodiment of the embodiment. Furthermore, the rent may be calculated in the same manner as the total number of articles, not according to the total number of articles conveyed to the same customer at one time as shown above, but according to the total number of shipping containers conveyed at one time to the same customer. Additionally, a weight premium may be added according to one embodiment. Furthermore, in one embodiment and another embodiment of the present application, charging may be performed only by quantity, such as the number of items picked and the number of containers shipped, or instead of charging based on quantity, such as the number of items picked and the number of containers shipped, There is no problem in charging only according to the weight of the container, etc.

Furthermore, although one embodiment of this application is described as one corporate entity using the applicable logistics facility, for example, one logistics facility may be jointly used by multiple corporate entities at the same time. do not have. Further, for example, based on the information regarding the arrival location stored in the arrival location code field 724, differences in rents and the like depending on the arrival location may be calculated and added. Furthermore, based on the information regarding the shipping location stored in the shipping location code column 1127, it may be added in the same way as the arrival location code.

The embodiments related to the present application have been described above, and there are parts in which it is described that the equipment is "exclusively", but the logistics facility in the present application is composed of a plurality of equipment, and as mentioned above, Strictly speaking, processing for a certain customer may not monopolize the entire logistics facility, as multiple corporate entities may perform picking operations at the same time in the same facility. Therefore, the term "exclusively" includes the meaning of "using" a certain area or "requiring" a certain amount of time.

The present invention makes it possible to calculate rent based on simple and clear standards according to the amount used when using not only logistics facilities but also expensive facilities. By changing this, it becomes possible to set rents according to the usage history of the facility. Further, the present invention is applicable not only to logistics facilities but also to the operation of facilities where rent or the like is charged according to the amount used.
