Here, the purchase management system 130 is a demand prediction system, MES (Manufacture execution system) or MRP (Material Requirement Planning) received from the delivery can be continuously updated. In this way, it is possible to quickly measure the changed demand forecast when changes such as sales plan changes occur.

In addition, the value obtained by subtracting the stock amount from the loadable amount of the purchaser becomes the quantity of additional stock.

In this way, the supplier can conveniently grasp the quantity of additional purchase and the quantity of additional stock through the purchase management system 130 without separately receiving an order instruction from the purchaser and deliver it.

8 is a view showing an example for explaining the principle of calculating the monthly demand in the cloud-based manufacturer in-house logistics and automatic purchase management platform management system according to an embodiment of the present invention.

Referring to FIG. 8 , in the cloud-based logistics management platform system according to an embodiment of the present invention, in calculating the monthly demand, the monthly demand (A), the corrected amount (B), and the total demand (C) available, where the corrected quantity (B) represents the quantity increased or decreased from the quantity demanded (A). In addition, the total demand (C) required for the desired number of months is calculated, and after calculating the difference from the existing order quantity, additional orders are placed so that the order quantity is maintained to hold the total demand quantity (C). Here, the additional demand quantity becomes the order quantity.

In addition, the number of months for which the aggregate demand management is desired may be determined by the selection of the purchaser. In general, the number of months for which the aggregate demand management is desired may be 3 months including the production month.

In addition, the order quantity is the value obtained by subtracting the sum of the stock quantity and the non-stocked quantity, that is, the quantity ordered but not yet in stock, from the total demand quantity (C) of the set period. The value is the quantity that has not yet been received among the existing orders.

As shown in Fig. 8, when the total demand quantity management is set from July to September, when the order quantity for July is calculated, the demand quantities for July, August, and September are 32,000, 20,000, and 15,000, respectively, and the inventory amount is It can be seen that when 15,000 and the unstocked quantity is 30,000, the total demand is 67,000 and the order quantity is calculated as 22,000 by subtracting 45,000 from 67,000.

9 is a diagram illustrating a screen of a supplier terminal interworking with a cloud-based manufacturer's in-house logistics and automatic purchase management platform management system according to an embodiment of the present invention.

Referring to FIG. 8 , the logistics management platform system according to an embodiment of the present invention may transmit a notification signal to the vendor terminal connected to the cloud network with the authority of the vendor when the automatic order is processed, and this notification signal is In addition to the notification sound, it can include specific automatic delivery details for delivery cases.

In detail, on the screen of the supplier terminal, the order information of the material A to which the person in charge belongs can be displayed, and the current buyer's inventory is 20,000, the total demand is 35,000, the loadable amount is 40,000, and the delivery amount is 15,000. can be displayed

Therefore, referring to this ordering information, the deducted value of the inventory amount from the total demand is 15,000, which is less than the loadable amount by subtracting the inventory amount from the total demand. It is easy to confirm that a dog's delivery is required.

Although many matters are specifically described in the above description, these should be construed as examples of preferred embodiments rather than limiting the scope of the invention. Accordingly, the invention should not be defined by the described embodiments, but should be defined by the claims and equivalents to the claims.
