On the receiving side, when the change request is received, the layout is changed in accordance with the request to recreate the shape model data, and the shape model data is transmitted again to the ordering party. When the shape model data is finally approved by repeating this, the manufacturing process (data cutting process) of the front frame 17 and the decorative plate 18 by the cutting processing device 9 based on the shape model data (cutting data). Is executed. Thereafter, finishing processes such as polishing and hole processing of the front frame 17 and the decorative plate 18, and coating processes for the front frame 17 and the decorative plate 18 are executed, and the goods are sent to the orderer.

Next, the effect | action of the said structure is demonstrated, referring FIG. The flowchart of FIG. 6 shows the flow of a process including the mutual communication performed on the ordering party side and the ordering party side as the order production system 1. That is, as described above, a user (consumer) who wants to purchase the case 16 of the smartphone 4 operates, for example, the personal computer 3 to access the home page of the recipient, and to display the screen 3a. The order information is inputted on the displayed order screen and transmitted (step S1).
