The present invention relates to a sales management system and method of non-quantitative goods, and more particularly, to the first weight and the second by measuring the weight of the product in a calculation terminal when selling non-quantitative goods such as agricultural products, fishery products, and livestock products. The present invention relates to a system and method for enabling accurate inventory control of a store by preventing vehicle weight from being matched and preventing loss of non-quantitative goods due to internal salesman fraud.

Recently, most retailers and discount stores have built in-store POS systems and eKW (Enterprise Knowledge Warehousing) to operate orders, logistics, sales, and analysis through the web. POS (Point of Sales) is a core system of distribution information system. It collects all information related to goods at the point of sale of goods quickly and accurately and analyzes them with a computer to obtain necessary information such as ordering, purchase delivery and inventory management. It is a system provided at the time.

Due to the nature of discount stores, it is a system of returning margins to customers through mass sales, which can be fatal if profits are high due to theft by customers or illegal methods of internal employees.

In particular, non-quantitative products such as agricultural products, livestock products, and fisheries products have a problem of inventory management due to the change of liquid product prices, unlike industrial products.In the case of discount store meat stores, the sales amount is the amount of inventory by the current part. Is deducted from the current stock. Inventory amounts are now managed in terms of inventory quantities. That is, the sales amount is subtracted from the current high price, and the current stock amount that has been subtracted is divided into the current unit price and converted into the current stock quantity to manage inventory. As the unit price of meat sold varies from time to time, it is a problem that it is managed by the amount itself.This problem is because of the problem of barcode recognition range at the time of sale. Cannot be fundamental.

In addition, in order to maintain the freshness of non-quantitative products, store managers and sales staffs offer discount sales at a certain point in time, and the sale of discounts takes place in consideration of the expiration date. It directly affects sales profits. Therefore, there is a very high risk of inaccuracy and mistakes of employees of discount store concentrated fisheries stores.

  In addition, in case of general industrial products, the illegal method by the customer is mostly the same type of theft of small items, and there are various means of control such as checking the packing status, and if RFID is introduced recently, Since it is attached at the time of manufacture and cannot be attached or detached in an illegal manner, it is possible to solve a loss caused by an illegal method of a salesperson, a customer, a salesperson, and a cashier. However, the agricultural and livestock sector does not have special alternatives to manage and control the losses caused by customers changing bar code stickers on Korean beef and pork, irregularities between salespeople and customers, and irregularities between salespeople and cashiers.

As a result, discount stores do not have basic control and identification devices for the loss and theft of non-quantitative goods, so unlike general industrial products, it is impossible to know how much the non-quantitative goods are caused and how they are lost. Losses not only make inventory management difficult, but also cause serious returns.

Therefore, there is an increasing demand for a management system that solves the problems of non-quantitative merchandise sales and inventory management of conventional discount stores, thereby preventing a decrease in yield due to loss of non-quantitative goods and enabling efficient inventory management.
