Description

EVENT MANAGEMENT SYSTEM AND OPERATING METHOD THEREOF}

The present invention relates to an event management system and an operation method thereof, and more particularly, an event management system and an operation for enabling an event inviteer to easily grasp a gift desired by an event organizer and to manage event related information in an integrated manner. It is about a method.

Events such as birthday parties, weddings, and funerals are usually attended only by invitees who receive invitations from the organizer. At this time, the invitees provide the organizer with cash, a gift selected by the organizer in anticipation of the desired gift, or a gift according to the nature of the event.

On the other hand, because Korean culture does not prefer the organizer to tell the inviter the gift he / she wants in advance, there is a lack of exchange of gift-related information between the organizer and the inviter. For example, in the case of a birthday party, the organizer frequently receives gifts that he does not want from the inviter. The inviter is also uncomfortable because he doesn't know what the organizer wants.

In addition, large events such as weddings and funerals are often difficult to manage because of the many attendees and officials. For example, in a funeral, the organizer receives a large number of garlands or charges from the inviter, who often do not know who received the garlands or charges. In addition, information such as garlands or charges sent by the inviter to the organizer is not properly managed, so that when the inviter invites the organizer, the organizer cannot provide the inviter with a gift corresponding to the gift he or she received.

The present invention has been made to solve the above problems, the main technical problem to be achieved by the present invention is event management that event inviteers can easily grasp the gifts desired by the event organizer, event management information that can be integrated management of event-related information It is to provide a system and its operation method.

Receive and purchase the prescribed goods at a purchase site corresponding to the given goods.

The history manager 15 may database at least one or more of the above-described event information, wish list information, inviter desired gift information received from the inviter terminals 30, and payment information performed by the payment processor 14. .

Here, the term 'database' means that the event management system 10 does not merely store various types of information in the history management unit 15 in a specific database, but groups related information or based on the amount of the product or the age of the user. This includes performing tasks such as graphing, generating tables, and modifying completed data so that you can see at a glance which products were presented.

For example, the history manager 15 adds the inviter terminals 30 and the inviter received from each of the inviter terminals 30 and payment information of a product corresponding to the inviter desired gift information received from each of the inviter terminals 30. You can create and store invitation registry information for each inviter's terminal by grouping the application information by inviter's terminal.

In addition, the history manager 15 generates guestbook information based on the inviter terminals 30 that have received the digital invitation, transmits attendance question information to the inviter terminals 30, and invites the terminal 30. The guestbook information may be updated by receiving attendance information according to the attendance question information.

Referring back to FIG. 1, the event management system 10 may further include a first additional processing unit 16, a second additional processing unit 17, and a category providing unit 18.

The first additional information processing unit 16 receives the organizer additional application information from the organizer terminal 20, and transmits a message, the electronic meal ticket distribution, and the return product information to the inviter terminals 30 according to the additional application information. Perform at least one or more.

The second additional processing unit 17 receives the inviter additional application information from each of the inviter terminals 30, transmits a message to the organizer terminal 20 according to the inviter additional application information, and electronically sends the subsidies to a predetermined account. And at least one or more of the wreath order at a predetermined site.

In addition, the event management system 10 may further include an additional processing unit that performs a friend search function through a social network service, etc., which receives an input for a specific name and inputs an ID of a person having the corresponding name to the social network service. It can be found through, etc., to follow the ID or send a message, invitation, gift, etc. to the ID.

In addition, the event management system 10 may further include an additional processing unit that provides information so that no other person purchases an item purchased by a user from a gift list of a specific event. This can be implemented by excluding items purchased or wished by one user from the gift list or by allowing other users to display to other users information that a particular user has already purchased or wished.

Additional information received from the host terminal 20 or the inviter terminal 30 is not limited to the above, and may include more various types of information.

The category providing unit 18 provides a digital invitation sending category, an electronic guestbook category, a gift record category, a relief history category, a wreath order category, a roster and expense management category, and a search to the organizer terminal 20 and / or the inviter terminals 30. Provide a category.

Referring to FIG. 4, the event management system 10 forms product information such as price information, purchase site or purchase place information, size information, and photo information for each of one or more gift items through the wish list generation unit 12. It may be transmitted to the organizer terminal 20 or the inviter terminal 30, and may be displayed on the screen of the terminal.

In addition, when the event management system 10 forms the product information and transmits it to the inviter terminal 30 and the information is displayed on the screen of the terminal, the inviter terminal 30 orders and pays for the product to be purchased based on the information. All of these records may be stored in the event management system 10.

Referring to FIG. 5, the event management system 10 may provide the event list to the organizer terminal 20 in the form of a category through the event generator 11. The event organizer can select a specific event from the event types included in the event list using the organizer terminal 20, and provides event information such as the name of the organizer (host), the event schedule, the event venue, attendance information, and the recipient information. It can be input to the organizer terminal 20. The organizer desired event information may be transmitted to the event generator 11 of the event management system 10 through the organizer terminal 20.

In addition, the event management system 10 generates a digital invitation containing the event information, such as the name of the host (host), the event schedule, the event venue, attendance, recipient information, such as the organizer terminal 20 or the inviter terminal ( 30), and may be displayed on the screen of the terminal. Thereafter, as shown in FIG. 4, a wish list generation of the event management system 10, an order and payment through the inviter terminal 30, and a guestbook may be made.

In addition, as shown in FIG. 6, the event management system 10 may send a digital invitation, an electronic guestbook, a gift registry, an electronic money transfer, a paid order, and register to the organizer terminal 20 and / or the inviter terminals 30. , List & cost management / search categories. The terminal provided with a category may select each category to perform functions provided by the event management system 10, and these functions may be provided by each component of the event management system 10, and all information may be provided. These can be recorded in the history manager 15.
