The server system 20 includes a load balancing server, Servers, and the like. And the consumption market pattern analysis server 20 may include a storage device capable of storing data or may store data through a third server (not shown).

The consumption market pattern analysis server 20 obtains the dispatch information of the medicine dispatched from the factory from the dispatching reader 10 or acquires stock information of the dispensed medicines through the dispatch terminal 30 at the visit site visited by the salesperson And can analyze the consumer's consumption market pattern for medicines by identifying medicines sold to actual consumers based on the acquired warehouse information and inventory information.

Hereinafter, each component of the consumer market pattern analysis server 20 will be described in detail with reference to FIG.

The consumption market pattern analysis server 20 may include a factory information obtaining unit 210. [ The warehouse information acquiring unit 210 can acquire warehouse information, which is tag information about medicines dispatched among the medicines to which the RFID tag is attached.

That is, when the outgoing reading device 10 reads the RFID tag attached to at least one medicament to be placed at the visiting point, the outgoing information obtaining unit 210 obtains the RFID tag from the outgoing reading device 10 The tag information can be obtained as the goods information.

At this time, the dispatching reader 10 may generate and store dispatch information by associating the leading tag information with the time of reading the RFID tag attached to the medicine.

For example, the warehouse information obtaining unit 210 can obtain warehouse information from the shipping reading apparatus 10 at a predetermined time interval, and stores the warehouse information obtained at the received time or the time obtained in the shipping reading apparatus 10 .

Meanwhile, the consumption market pattern analysis server 20 may include an inventory information receiving unit 220. The inventory information receiving unit 220 can acquire the stock information, which is the tag information about the medicine placed at the visit point, using the employee terminal 30 of the salesperson who visited the visiting point where the medicine is sold.

That is, when the salesperson reads the tag information about the medicine placed at the visiting point to the employee terminal 30, the inventory information receiving unit 220 can receive the tag information read from the employee terminal 30 as stock information .

For example, when a salesperson reads a drug placed in a temple terminal 30 at a visit point visited on a specific date, the inventory information receiver 220 receives information on the visit point and tag information from the temple terminal 30 can do. Accordingly, the information about the visit point and the tag information can be correlated and collected as inventory information.

The inventory information receiving unit 220 may classify and store the tag information included in the received inventory information according to a certain condition.

For example, the inventory information receiving unit 220 can classify the inventory information according to the received time or date, and stores the tag information included in each inventory information at a position where the tag information is read, for example, And can be categorized by category of medicines.

Meanwhile, the consumption market pattern analysis server 20 may include a sales confirmation unit 230. The sales confirmation unit 230 can identify the actually sold medicament based on at least one of the dispatch information and the inventory information.

In one embodiment, the sales confirmation unit 230 can identify the actually sold medicines using the stock information obtained after the dispatch information is generated based on the dispatch information.

For example, the sales confirmation unit 230 compares the tag information included in the shipment information on January 1, 2017 with the stock information obtained after January 1, 2017, The time point at which the information is acquired can be identified as the medicine actually corresponding to the tag information. For example, if the tag information of the goods shipped on January 1, 2017 is acquired at least once at an arbitrary visit point and the tag information is no longer acquired after a certain point of time, It can be judged that the product is sold.

In another embodiment, the sales confirmation unit 230 can identify that the tag information that is excluded from the second inventory information among the tag information included in the first inventory information is actually sold.

For example, the sales confirmation unit 230 determines whether the tag information '39309' included in the inventory information received on Jan. 1, 2017 from the employee terminal 30 is included in the stock information on January 3, 2017 , And if it is not included in the inventory information, the medicine corresponding to the tag information '39309' can be identified as sold to the consumer.

On the other hand, if the tag information corresponding to the medicines identified as having been sold in the past is included in the stock information received from the employee terminal 30 thereafter, the sales confirmation unit 230 can identify the product as not yet sold have. That is, if it is confirmed that the tag information is included in the first stock information after the arbitrary tag information is included in the shop information, the sales confirmation unit 230 identifies the drug as an inventory of the visit point corresponding to the first stock information, If the tag information is no longer included in the second inventory information of the branch, the drug can be treated as sold. Thereafter, when it is confirmed that the tag information is included again in the third inventory information of the corresponding visit point, it is determined that the previous sale processing is an error, and the drug is judged as the inventory of the visit point again.

That is, if the tag information not included in the second tag information is included in the third tag information, the sales confirmation unit 230 reads the RFID tag of the medicine placed from the visiting point to the employee terminal 30 It is possible to determine whether the tag information of the missing drug is the leading one or whether it is a newly disposed drug. The distinction may be made based on whether the sales confirmation unit 230 first received the tag information of the drug from the employee terminal 30 or whether the tag information was included in the previous inventory information. In the former case, the sales confirmation part 230 can confirm that the new medicine dispatched to the visiting point is in stock. In the latter case, the sales confirmation part 230 omits the inventory information of the medicine already in stock at the visiting point Can be confirmed to be included again. In this case, the sales confirmation unit 230 may exclude the tag information from the sales information and subtract the number of tag information that is missing from the quantity of medicines confirmed to be sold.

According to one embodiment, the sales confirmation unit 230 may store sales information including tag information that is identified as sold, and may store inventory information received from the employee terminal 30, Can be retrieved.

For example, if the third inventory information is included in the first inventory information but is not included in the second inventory information and the tag information is included in the third inventory information acquired later, the sales confirmation unit 230 stores the third inventory information It can be determined whether or not the included tag information is included in the sales information, and it can be discriminated whether the tag information is missing from the second inventory information or the tag information of the medicine newly arranged at the visiting place.

At this time, when the sales confirmation unit 230 confirms whether the medicine corresponding to each tag information is sold and generates sales information, the sales information includes tag information of the medicine, information of the visit point where the tag information is finally collected, Information about the salesperson who collected the information, collection time, and the like.

Then, the sales confirmation unit 230 confirms the tag information, which is included in the sales information and is excluded again, from the employee terminal 30 that has collected the tag information, the number of the tag information, Can be calculated for each employee terminal (30). Thereby, it is possible to correct the error of the stock information received from each employee terminal 30 or to request retransmission of the stock information.

For example, if the tag information is missing four or more times a month in the stock information obtained from the first employee terminal for one month, the sales confirmation unit 230 obtains the actual sales amount for the tag information acquired from the first employee terminal It can be corrected by adding the number of missing tag information to the stock information.

Alternatively, for example, when the first stock information is acquired from the first employee terminal, the sales confirmation unit 230 may request the first employee terminal to re-read the landing point, It is possible to check whether the medicine is sold or not by comparing the inventory information with each other.

Then, the sales confirmation unit 230 can transmit the tag information, the sales position, and the timing of the drug, which has been confirmed to be sold, to the consumption market pattern analysis unit 240 to be described later.

Meanwhile, the consumption market pattern analysis server 20 may include a consumption market pattern analysis unit 240. The consumption market pattern analysis unit 240 can analyze the drug consumption market pattern based on the dispatch information and the inventory information.

That is, the consumption market pattern analyzing unit 240 can acquire the tag information and the selling time of the medicine that has been confirmed to be sold for a predetermined period from the above-described sales confirmation unit 230, and can identify the type of medicines, , Analyzing the sales situation of medicines according to the region, or analyzing the trend of the sales situation to analyze the consumption market pattern of medicines. Then, the consumption market pattern analyzing unit 240 can provide the analysis result to the user, that is, the drug salesman or drug manufacturer who needs information on the sales status.

According to one embodiment, the consumption market pattern analyzing unit 240 can analyze an optimal quantity of medicines produced and a location of a logistics facility based on sales quantities of the same medicines by season.

For example, the Consumer Market Pattern Analysis Unit 240 estimates that cold medicines produced in the summer based on "50000" and "1,000,000" cold medicines sold in the "central region" and "southern region" The logistics strategy can be set to concentrate on.

According to another embodiment, the consumption market pattern analyzing unit 240 can analyze the current disease in the area based on the type and number of medicines sold in a specific area.

Thus, by analyzing the tag information of drugs that are actually sold, it is possible to analyze the drug market patterns of consumers more accurately by not analyzing the tag information of the drugs dispatched from the factory but analyzing the tag information.

According to an embodiment of the present invention, the sales confirmation unit 230 may be included in the first inventory information acquired relatively earlier at an arbitrary visited point among the tag information included in the shipping information, The process of inserting the tag information not included in the second inventory information into the sales information of an arbitrary visit point as the tag information of the medicines sold at an arbitrary visit point can be performed for a certain period of time. The consumption market pattern analyzing unit 240 can estimate the quantity of medicines sold for a certain period of time at an arbitrary visit point based on the sales information collected during a certain period. At this time, the sales confirmation unit 230 is also included in the first inventory information at any visited point among the tag information included in the shipping information, is not included in the second inventory information, and is collected relatively later than the second inventory information 3 The process of excluding the tag information included in the inventory information from the sales information of an arbitrary visit point can be performed for a predetermined period together with the above-described process. Accordingly, the consumption market pattern analyzing unit 240 can estimate the quantity of medicines sold at each visit point even though it is not accurate by performing the above process for a predetermined period.

In addition, according to the embodiment, the sales confirmation unit 230 collects a plurality of pieces of inventory information collected at a predetermined period or frequency for a predetermined period or more, and then stores the history information in the inventory information Only tag information may be included in the sales information.

A method of analyzing a consumption market pattern according to an embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to FIG.

The method for analyzing the consumption market pattern according to the embodiment shown in FIG. 3 includes the steps of processing in a time-series manner in the consumption market pattern analysis server 20 shown in FIG. Therefore, the contents described above with respect to the consumption market pattern analysis server 20 shown in FIG. 2 may be applied to the consumption market pattern analysis method according to the embodiment shown in FIG.

First, the consumption market pattern analysis server 20 can acquire the dispatch information, which is tag information about the dispensed medicines, of the medicines to which the RFID tag is attached (S3001).

That is, the consumption market pattern analysis server 20 can acquire the tag information stored in the RFID tag attached to the medicines through the outgoing reading device 10 in the process of producing and dispensing medicines.

For example, the consumer market pattern analysis server 20 can obtain the departure information, which is tag information for each of at least one medicine dispatched to each day from the dispatching apparatus 10 every day.

Then, the consumption market pattern analysis server 20 can acquire stock information, which is tag information about the medicine placed at the visit point, from the employee terminal 30 of the salesperson who visited the visiting point where the medicine is sold (S3002).

That is, the consumption market pattern analysis server 20 can acquire stock information about the medicine placed at the visit point from the employee terminal 30 using the employee terminal 30 by the salesperson.

For example, if the salesperson visits any one of the at least one visiting point and reads the RFID tag of the medicine placed at the visiting point using the employee terminal 30, the consumption market pattern analysis server 20 Can acquire positional information from the employee terminal 30 together with the tag information of the read RFID tag.

At this time, the consumption market pattern analysis server 20 may match the stock information obtained from the employee terminal 30 with the visit point information.

Then, the consumption market pattern analysis server 20 can identify the actually sold medicines based on at least one of the dispatch information and the inventory information (S3003).

For example, the consumption market pattern analysis server 20 includes the tag information included in the warehouse information acquired in step S3001 but included in the second inventory information collected after the step S3002 Tag information can be identified as the sold medicament and included in the sales information.

Alternatively, for example, the consumption market pattern analysis server 20 may not include in the second stock information of the tag information included in the first stock information acquired from the same employee terminal 30 or acquired for the same visit point in step S3002 The tag information included in the third inventory information collected after that can be excluded from the sales information again.
