2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, when a headquarters receives an order from each member store and places an order with a business partner, the headquarters side prepares the same ordering environment as each member store, and based on an order request from each member store, the headquarters receives an order. And input the order data and place an order with the business partner.

In addition, the headquarters asks each member store for the type and quantity of products from each member store, creates an order list for each customer, and places an order by calling the customer.

[0004]

However, the above-described ordering method requires a great deal of manual labor and has a problem that an error such as an input error occurs. Another problem is that it is not possible to perform order processing for a member store for which no order request has been made.

[0005] The present invention solves these problems,
Based on the order data from the member stores, order result data is generated and the number of orders is set for the member stores that have placed orders, and the number of orders is set to 0 for unordered member stores. The purpose of the present invention is to reduce the number of manual operations, eliminate input errors, speed up the operations, and enable unordered member stores to place substitute orders.

[0006]

Means for solving the problem will be described with reference to FIG. In FIG. 1, an ordering apparatus 1 creates and transmits ordering data at a member store.

The order processing device 2 performs order processing based on order data for each member store received from the order device 1, and includes an order backup 22 and a member store master 24.
And so on.

The order monitoring device 3 monitors an order status. Next, the operation will be described. The order processing device 2 receives order data of merchandise from each member store, and for the member stores for which order data has not been received, the past data of the member stores in the order backup 22 automatically or based on an instruction from the headquarters. The order data is created based on the order data of the product.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS Next, an embodiment and operation of the present invention will be sequentially described in detail with reference to FIGS.

FIG. 1 shows a system configuration diagram of the present invention.
In FIG. 1, an ordering apparatus 1 is a terminal such as a POS provided in a member store, and here, creates and transmits ordering data.

The order processing device 2 performs an order process based on order data for each member store received from the order device 1, and includes an order processing means 21, an order backup 22,
It comprises an emergency agency order processing means 23, a member store master 24 provided as needed, and the like.

The order processing means 21 creates order result data based on the order data transmitted and received from the order apparatus 1 of each member store, transmits the result data to the order monitoring apparatus (headquarters) 3, and transmits or receives unordered data. In the order result data of the member store, the number of orders is set to 0 (zero) and transmitted to the order monitoring device (headquarters) 3.

The order backup 22 stores past order data for each member store. The emergency proxy order processing means 23, when the order data from the member store cannot be received, refers to the order backup 22 to create the order data by proxy based on the past order data of the member store. It is.

The member store master 24 registers various kinds of information on member stores, and stores the member store master 32 of the headquarters.
Has the same contents as the above or information on the member stores for which the order processing device 2 performs order processing.

The order monitoring device 3 is a device (computer device) of the headquarters for monitoring the order status of each member store ordered by the order processing device 2, and here, the order status monitoring means 31, the member store It comprises a master 32, an emergency substitute order instructing means 33, and the like.

The order status monitoring means 31 includes an order processing device 2
The order status is monitored. Merchant Master 3
Numeral 2 is for registering various information of the member store, and has information as shown in FIG.

The urgent agency order instructing means 33 provides a member store master 32 for member stores for which order data could not be received.
And instructs the order processing device 2 to issue an emergency substitute order instruction.

Next, the operation of the configuration of FIG. 1 will be described in detail according to the order shown in the flowchart of FIG. FIG. 2 is a flowchart illustrating the operation of the present invention.

In FIG. 2, S1 creates order result data. This means that the order processing device 2 shown in FIG. 1 creates order result data based on the order data shown in FIG. 5 described later received from the order device 1 of each member store. At this time, with respect to order data of a member store that has not been received due to a line failure or the like, order result data in which the number of orders and the original selling price are set to 0 (zero) is created so that it can be distinguished that data has not been received. The created order result data is transmitted to the order monitoring device (headquarters) 3.

In step S2, order result data is displayed. In this case, the order monitoring device (headquarters) 3 that has received the order result data created and transmitted in S1 displays the order result data on a monitoring screen. At this time, the order result data with the number of orders and the original selling price of 0 is highlighted, and the fact that order data has not been received from the member store due to a line failure or the like is displayed in an easily understandable manner.

In S3, it is determined whether or not an automatic order is specified. This means that if there is an order result data quantity displayed on the screen or an original selling price of 0 (zero), the member store master 3
With reference to 2, it is determined whether or not the day set in the automatic agency ordering section of the member store and the date set in the store closing information does not match the order date. In the case of YES, it is determined in S3 that there is an automatic agency order section and that it does not match the closed shop information,
Proceed to S6 to instruct an emergency agency described later. On the other hand, S3
In the case of NO, since it was determined that there was no automatic order designation,
Proceed to S4.

In S4, the manager of the headquarters confirms the order status of each member store displayed on the screen. In S5, it is determined whether or not there is a member store for which order data has not been transmitted. This is because the order result data of the number of orders and the original selling price of 0 (indicating that the order data has not been transmitted) is highlighted on the screen, and the member store with the highlighted display should transmit the order data on the day. Determine if you can. In the case of YES, it is determined that order data has not been transmitted from the ordering device 1 of the member store to the order processing device 2 due to a line failure or the like, so the process proceeds to S6. On the other hand, in the case of NO, the process proceeds to S7.

In step S6, an emergency proxy is instructed. This is S
In the case of YES of 3 (when it is determined that the member store has not been transmitted and is in the automatic substitute ordering section of the member store master 32 and it is determined that the order closing date does not correspond to the closed store information), an emergency substitute is instructed, or In the case of YES in S4 and S5 (in the case of a member store that has not been transmitted and the automatic agency order classification of the member store master 32 is set to nothing, but the administrator determines that automatic agency is performed), an emergency agency is instructed. I do.

In step S7, the order processing device 2 that has received the instruction of the emergency proxy in step S6 determines whether or not there is past order data of the member store in the order backup 22. If yes,
In S8, emergency agency order data is created. If NO, the process ends.

As described above, even if order data is transmitted from the ordering device 1 of the member store to the order processing device 2 via the line,
When the order processing device 2 cannot receive due to a line failure,
The member store master 32 (or member store master 2
Referring to 4), when the automatic agency order category is present and does not correspond to the closed store information, or in response to the automatic agency instruction of the headquarters administrator, based on the corresponding past order data in the order backup 22. It is possible to perform an automatic proxy order.

Here is an example. Here, the order data (not shown) received from the member store ordering device 1 is sorted and sorted in units of the district headquarters / member store code / delivery date / classification code, and the like, and the district headquarters + member store code is used as a key. The data is set as order result data when it is found by collation with the member store master 24, and the key is stored in the member store master 24.
If there is no key for the order data, it is determined as unreceived order data due to a line failure, etc., and the order quantity and original selling price of the order result data are set to 0 (zero) so that it can be identified as not received. I do. Then, the created order result data of all the member stores is transmitted to the order monitoring device 3 of the headquarters.

FIG. 3B shows an example of a member store master (order monitoring device). Here, the order result data is received from the order processing device 2, and the order is placed with reference to the member store master 32, the automatic agency order classification is present (for example, "5"), and the store closing information (closed day for each member store). If the date does not apply,
Emergency proxy instruction data is created and transmitted to the order processing device 2 to cause automatic proxy ordering. On the other hand, if there is no automatic agency order classification, or if the order date corresponds to the closed store information (closed day for each member store), it is determined not to create emergency agency instruction data.

As described above, when order data cannot be received due to a line failure between the ordering device 1 and the order processing device 2 of the member store, the member store master 24 is referenced to order the order result data of the member store that has not been received. The number, original selling price, etc. are set to 0 (zero) to indicate that they have not been received and transmitted to the headquarters, and the order monitoring device 3 of the headquarters refers to the automatic agency order classification and closed store information in the member store master 32. Then, when the automatic proxy order category is present and the information does not correspond to the closed store information, the emergency proxy instruction data is created and notified to the order processing device 2, and the proxy data is substituted based on the past order data in the order backup 22.
