Description

A method for operating a web-based parts list managing system}

The present invention relates to a system operating method for managing a parts list such as a machine on a web. In particular, the present invention provides a system operating method for managing parts list by linking image data and text data by making a database of parts list information managed in a file form.

In general, customers receive instruction manuals and parts catalogs in the form of books or files (PDF, Word, Excel, etc.). If a product breaks down or the dealer wants to repair the product, the customer will be charged for the required parts.

The parts catalog is in the form of images so that customers can easily find the parts, and the images are numbered in sequence, and next to the images, information such as the part number, part name, quantity, specification, price, etc. according to the number is written in TEXT form. .

Therefore, if a customer wants to buy a part, they can find it by calling the parts catalog, and then call and buy it after checking whether it is in stock or how much it is. At this time, the customer may have lost the parts catalog, or the parts may be changed due to the design change according to the production date, so that the parts catalog information that the customer has is not accurate. This leads to significant difficulty in purchasing parts, which can result in significant loss of time and money due to shipping mistakes if the customer is overseas. As a result, there was a constant demand for inquiry of necessary parts through web services from customers with the development of the Internet. However, due to the nature of the parts catalog where image data and TEXT data coexist, there was a considerable difficulty in displaying information in response to customer needs.

For this reason, existing systems are either inexpensive to download part catalogs in PDF format from the web, or at a high cost to provide programmers to create one web page per part catalog page. . In the former case, since the PDF file format, data such as real-time inventory information, price information, and design change information cannot be viewed. In the latter case, not only the initial development cost but also the maintenance cost are high, which increases the software price.

For this reason, it is necessary to prevent such unnecessary work, provide a database for efficiently managing the parts catalog, provide an administrator tool for linking image data with text data, and provide a smooth customer support method through web services.

The present invention has a first object of providing a system operating method capable of managing a list of parts list information managed in a file form and managing image data and text data in association.
