When popping up a dialog window on the first terminal 200, the dialog window pop-up unit 165-2 displays one or more other first user information participating in the dialog box (the second user) . Accordingly, the first user can transmit and receive the input information in the dialog with the first user as well as the second user. In the dialogue, the first user may request the second user for the missing status at the time of ordering the goods. For example, with respect to a coffee order, the first user requests information on the second user, such as making a thick coffee or putting a lot of ice, and the second user receives the coffee in accordance with the preference of the first user Can be manufactured. In addition, the first user may send and receive information for making a friendship with another first user, request necessary information, and receive answer information therefrom.

The dialog window disappearing unit 165-3 receives the goods receipt signal from the second terminal 300 or receives the goods receipt signal from the second terminal 300 and then the first terminal 200 transmits the goods receipt signal to the second terminal 300 (For example, 100 m) from the first terminal 200 or when the first terminal 200 releases the connection from the information managing apparatus 100, the dialog window provided to the first terminal 200 may be destroyed .

FIG. 5 is a diagram illustrating a detailed configuration of the start alarm providing unit 166 of the information managing unit 160 of FIG. Referring to FIG. 5, the start alarm providing unit 166 may include a calculating unit 166-1, an alarm providing unit 166-2, and a notifying unit 166-3.

The calculation unit 166-1 may calculate the first time to the third time corresponding to the reception of the first time option selection signal from the first terminal 200. [ The first time may include the time required to travel from the current location of the first user having the first terminal 200 to the vendor. For example, assuming that the distance from the current location of the first user having the first terminal 200 to the dealer is 1 km, the calculation unit 166-1 calculates the first time Can be calculated as 15 minutes. Therefore, when the settlement completion time of the first user is 15 o'clock, the time for the first user to arrive at the seller is 15:15. The first time calculation of the calculation unit 166-1 may be different according to the age of the first user. It is possible to calculate the first time based on the information related to the first user stored in the database 150, The first time may be shorter than the user, and thus the first time can be calculated in consideration of this.

The second time may include a manufacturing time of the commodity or a preparation time of the commodity that is consumed by the second user corresponding to the commodity order signal of the first user. Since the database 150 stores the time information required for manufacturing per item and / or the time information required for preparing one item input by the second user for each vendor, the calculating unit 166-1 calculates The second time can be calculated based on the second time 150. For example, when the product order signal is three ice lattes and two cups of cappuccino, the time required for manufacturing a single ice latte stored in the database 150 is three minutes, and the time required for manufacturing one cup of cappuccino is two minutes , The calculating unit 166-1 can calculate the second time to be 13 minutes. The second time calculation of the calculation unit 166-1 may be different for each place of sale. For example, a second user of the A vendor may take 1 minute and 30 seconds to manufacture a cup of cappuccino, a second user of the B vendor may spend 2 minutes to manufacture a cup of cappuccino, and the database 150 Since the time required for product manufacture or product preparation for each sales party is stored differently, the calculation unit 166-1 can calculate the second time based on the database 150 based on the sales place.

The third time is a time obtained by adding the time when the first user completed settlement to the subtraction result of the first time to the second time or the time when the second terminal 300 received the order alarm, May substantially include the time at which the manufacture or preparation of the merchandise should begin. For example, when the first time is 15 minutes and the second time is 13 minutes, and the time when the first user completes the settlement or the time when the second terminal 300 receives the order alarm is 15:00, 166-1) can calculate the third time at 15:02 (15 minutes-13 minutes + 15 hours). The alarm providing unit 166-2 receives the third time received from the calculating unit 166-1 as a start alarm for the second terminal 300, and the second user of the second terminal 300 receives the alarm, The user can complete the manufacture of the commodity or complete the preparation of the commodity immediately before the first user arrives at the point of sale or immediately before the first user arrives at the point of sale.

In addition, the calculating unit 166-1 may calculate the fourth time to the sixth time in response to receiving the second time option selection signal from the first terminal 200. [ The fourth time may include a delayed movement time obtained by adding the delay time received according to the second time option selection and the travel time from the current location of the first user having the first terminal 200 to the place of sale . In other words, the calculation unit 166-1 can calculate the sum of the delay time and the first time as the fourth time. For example, if the received delay time is 20 minutes according to the second time option selection, and the first time is 15 minutes, the calculation unit 166-1 can calculate 35 minutes as the fourth time. Therefore, when the settlement completion time of the first user is 15 o'clock, the time for the first user to arrive at the seller is 15:35. The fifth time period may include a manufacturing time of the commodity or preparation time of the commodity that the second user corresponds to the commodity order signal of the first user and is the same as the second time described above, do.

The sixth time is a time obtained by adding the time when the first user completed settlement to the subtraction result of the fourth time to the fifth time or the time when the second terminal 300 received the order alarm, May substantially include the time at which the manufacture or preparation of the merchandise should begin. For example, when the fourth time is 35 minutes and the fifth time is 13 minutes, and the time when the first user completes the settlement or the time when the second terminal 300 receives the order alarm is 15:00, 166-1) can calculate the sixth time at 15:22 (35 minutes-13 minutes + 15 hours). The alarm providing unit 166-2 provides the sixth time received from the calculating unit 166-1 to the second terminal 300 as a start alarm and the second time of the second terminal 300 receiving the start alarm The user can start the manufacture or preparation of the commodity and complete the preparation of the commodity or complete the preparation of the commodity immediately before the first user arrives at the place of sale or immediately before the first user arrives at the place of sale.

The notification unit 166-3 may notify the first terminal 200 of a new time option when the second time is longer than the first time or when the fifth time is longer than the fourth time. Here, the new time option may include new time information in which the first user has to start selling. For example, if the first user selects the first time option, the first time is 15 minutes, the second time is 20 minutes, the time when the first user completed the settlement, If the time of receiving the alarm is 15 o'clock, the first user arrives at the sale place at 15:15, and the product is not finished or ready to be completed, so the user has to wait another 5 minutes. Therefore, when the second time is longer than the first time, or when the fifth time is longer than the fourth time, the notification unit 166-3 may, for example, operate in synchronization with the calculation unit 166-1 15:20 or later may be calculated as a new time option and notified to the first terminal 200. The notification unit 166-3 receiving the new time option from the first terminal 200 and receiving the approval signal for the new time option from the first terminal 200 notifies the second terminal 300 of a new start alarm . In this way, since the time for the first user to arrive at the point of sale is after 15:20 in response to the new time option, the first user can receive the goods without waiting time.
