DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS An inventory / cooking management system according to the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings. FIG. 1 is a schematic block diagram showing an inventory / cooking management system according to an embodiment of the present invention. In the figure, reference numeral 1 denotes a kitchen in a store such as a fast food restaurant or a take-out lunch box, reference numeral 2 denotes a register provided in a store section, reference numeral 3 denotes a personal computer installed in the kitchen 1, and reference numeral 3a denotes a personal computer 3. The display screen, 4
Is a large display also installed in the kitchen 1, and 5
Is an alarm which also alerts a person in charge of cooking installed in the kitchen 1.

Each register 2 has a function of transmitting sales data input from the input device to the personal computer 3. The number of stocks for each cooked product and the estimated time required for cooking for each product are registered in the personal computer 3 in advance. Further, the personal computer 3 displays the stock quantity of each product on the display screen 3a,
It has a function of subtracting the number of items in stock with the sales, sounding the alarm 5 when the minimum number of items is reached, and displaying the number of additional cookings to replenish the inventory on the display 4. I have.

Next, the stock / cooking management method of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. FIG. 2 is a flowchart illustrating a stock / cooking management method according to the embodiment of the present invention.
In the figure, the numerical value following the symbol S indicates the number of steps in the flowchart. First, the stock quantity of each cooked product and the cooking time of each product are input to the personal computer 3 in advance. [S1] It is checked whether the sales data from the register 2 accompanying the sales has been received. If received, proceed to S2,
Otherwise, return to S1. [S2] The stock quantity of the specific product on the display screen 3a is subtracted according to the sales content. The cooking manager can grasp the stock status of each product. [S3] It is checked whether or not the reduced stock number of the specific product has decreased to the minimum quantity required to start cooking, that is, the remaining number of cooking starts. If it has decreased to the remaining cooking start count, the process proceeds to S4, otherwise returns to S3. [S4] The alarm 5 is sounded to urge the cooking manager to replenish the stock. [S5] It is checked whether or not the cooking manager has input a cooking product to be replenished and the quantity, and has instructed additional cooking. If there is an instruction for additional cooking, the process proceeds to S6; otherwise, the process returns to S5. [S6] The alarm 5 is stopped. [S7] The number of goods in stock on the display screen 3a is updated. [S8] The content of the additional cooking is displayed on the display 4, and the other cooks are instructed to start cooking the displayed product.
