Abstract

PURPOSE:To reduce the manhour of commodity buying work and the loss of chances by providing this ordering processing system with a means for updating stock information, a means for automatically forming ordering data at the time of generating the lack of stocks as the result of commodity supply and a means for determining the supplying and delivering routes of supplied commodities. CONSTITUTION:The stock information of each warehouse stored in a storage device is retrieved by a stock information retrieving/updating part 1 to secure the stock. The automatic ordering data forming part 3 retrieves the automatic ordering data forming information stored in the storage device based upon transferred data, inputs information necessary for the formation of the ordering data and forms the ordering data. At the time of completing the security of the stock or the automatic formation of the ordering data, the data are transferred to a commodity route determining part 2. The determining part 2 retrieves the commodity supplying/delivering route information stored in the storage device based upon the transferred data, applies a delivering code obtained by the retrieval to the data and registers the code-added data. Consequently, the manhour of commodity buying work and the loss of chances are reduced.

Description

[Detailed description of the invention] [Industrial application field] The present invention relates to an order processing method in a logistics system.

[Conventional technology]

Conventionally, in this type of order processing system, the information transmission method from inventory order data to inventory order data is temporarily suspended by storing the inventory order data on the host computer storage medium, and then manually processed by human judgment. The method used was to generate and register inventory order data on a storage medium.

[Problem to be solved by the invention]

In the conventional processing method described above, inventory order data and inventory order data are generated and registered separately based on human judgment. 2) Increased opportunity loss due to delays in registering inventory order data (3) Increase in human operation man-hours (4) Ordering operations will be performed only by experienced personnel (5) Appropriate inventory cannot be maintained (6) Inventory order data and inventory This makes it difficult to associate order data, and there are problems such as not being able to accurately allocate inventory backlog data during warehousing processing.

[Means to solve the problem]

The method of the present invention is an order processing method in a logistics system that includes a communication control device and an input device for inputting order data online, a storage device for storing data, and an inventory information management device. A method for searching information, procuring products, and updating inventory information, a method for automatically creating order data when inventory shortages occur as a result of product procurement, and a means for determining the acquisition route and delivery route for procured products. and means for determining.

〔Example〕

FIG. 1 is a block diagram of one embodiment of the present invention.

When the order data is input, the inventory information search and update section 1
The inventory information of each warehouse stored in the storage device is searched and the inventory is secured. If all inventory has been secured in the inventory information of each warehouse (■), after updating the inventory information,
The product is handed over to the product route determining section 2.

If the inventory has not been secured according to the inventory information of each warehouse (■), it is determined that there is a shortage of inventory, and the order data is handed over to the automatic order data creation unit 3.

The order data automatic creation section 3 searches the order data automatic creation information stored in the storage device based on the handed over data (product code, missing quantity), and searches for the information (purchasing) necessary to create the order data. Obtain the destination code, order quantity, warehouse entrance, purchase price) and create order data. Inventory secured (
■) Or when the automatic creation of order data is completed (■),
It is handed over to the product route determining section 3.

The product route determination unit 3 searches the product acquisition-delivery route information stored in the storage device based on the transferred data (inventory securing data), and when acquiring the product between warehouses, the order data A request is made to the automatic creation unit 3 to create inter-warehouse order data (■).

When the request to create order data between warehouses is completed, a delivery code obtained by searching for product acquisition and delivery route information is assigned to the input order data and registered.

The delivery code is a code that is selected when outputting the delivery instruction form at the warehouse. In other words, the delivery code and the vehicle that delivers the product are associated with each other, and it is possible to output the delivery instruction for each vehicle.

〔Effect of the invention〕

As explained above, when order data according to the present invention is generated, if the product does not exist in the warehouse, the order data is automatically created. You can measure the reduction.

Furthermore, in the business of selling products, because the number of out-of-stock products is reduced, opportunity losses can also be reduced.
