This may mean that can be provided, and the deactivated third time slot (TS3) and fifth time slot (TS5) may mean that installation work for the item cannot be provided at that time. The user selects one of the first and second time slots (TS1, TS2), the fourth time slot (TS4), and the sixth to eighth time slots (TS6, TS7, TS8) provided as activated time slots to the user terminal 120. By selecting one, a request for installation of the item can be transmitted to the electronic device 110.

FIG. 6 is a flowchart illustrating a method of selecting a time slot that can be provided to the user terminal 120 in a method of providing item installation schedule information according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. Specifically, the method of selecting a time slot that can be provided to the user terminal 120 shown in FIG. 6 may be included in step S230 of FIG. 2 described above.

In step S610, the electronic device 110 may check installation type information of the item the user wants to purchase based on the first selection information for selecting the item obtained from the user terminal 120. The installation type information of the item may be set for each item by the administrator of the electronic device 110, and may include at least part of the installation time information required to install the item and the license information required to install the item. .

In step S620, the electronic device 110 may generate a plurality of time slots corresponding to the installation type information of the item. In an embodiment, the electronic device 110 may set the size of a time slot based on installation time information required to install an item, and a plurality of time slots may be classified and created based on the installation type information of the item. . For example, if the installation time required to install item A is approximately 1 hour, and the installation time required to install item B is approximately 2 hours, the size of each of the multiple time slots for item A is 1 hour. may be generated corresponding to , and the size of each of the plurality of time slots for item B may be generated corresponding to 2 hours.

In step S630, the electronic device 110 may check available resource information of the first camp corresponding to each of the plurality of time slots created in step S620. The first camp can be confirmed based on the user's address information by the electronic device 110, and available resource information can be obtained through the camp terminal 130. The electronic device 110 may check available resource information corresponding to each of a plurality of time slots based on the available resource information obtained from the camp terminal 130, and the available resource information corresponding to each of the plurality of time slots is It can accommodate the number of workers available to perform installation work at that time.

In step S640, the electronic device 110 may check a time slot that can be provided to the user terminal 120 based on available resource information corresponding to each of the plurality of time slots identified in step S630. For example, when the electronic device 110 determines that there is a worker to perform installation work at that time based on available resource information corresponding to a specific time slot, the electronic device 110 stores the time slot in the user terminal 120. It can be confirmed that it can be provided. Meanwhile, when the electronic device 110 determines that there is no worker to perform installation work at that time based on available resource information corresponding to a specific time slot, the electronic device 110 provides the corresponding time slot to the user terminal 120. It can be confirmed that this cannot be done.

In an embodiment, the case where it is confirmed that a worker to perform installation work exists may mean that the available resource information corresponding to a specific time slot exceeds a first threshold, and the first threshold is the electronic device ( 110) can be set by the administrator. For example, when the first threshold value is set to 0, the electronic device 110 may determine that if available resource information corresponding to a specific time slot is 0, there is no worker to perform the installation task of the item. . Meanwhile, considering the reserve manpower for each camp, when the first threshold value is set to N (N is a natural number of 1 or more), the electronic device 110 installs the item when the available resource information corresponding to a specific time slot is N or less. It can be confirmed that there is no worker to perform the task.

FIG. 7 is a flowchart illustrating a method of managing time slots based on second selection information obtained from the user terminal 120 in the method of providing item installation schedule information according to an embodiment of the present disclosure.

In step S710, the electronic device 110 may modify the first available resource information corresponding to the first time slot related to the second selection information based on the second selection information obtained from the user terminal 120. For example, the number of workers who can perform the installation work confirmed from the first available resource information corresponding to the first time slot provided in an active state to the user terminal 120 is 10, and the number of workers capable of performing the installation work is 10, and the first time slot provided in an active state to the user terminal 120 is 10. When second selection information about the time slot is obtained, the electronic device 110 provides the first available resource information by subtracting the number of workers who can perform installation work in the time period corresponding to the first time slot by 9. It can be modified. In some embodiments, when two people are required to install a specific item, the electronic device 110 subtracts two from the number of workers corresponding to the slot, rather than deducting one worker as in the above-described example. Thus, the first available resource information can be modified.

In step S720, the electronic device 110 may check whether the modified first available resource information exceeds the first threshold. The first threshold may be set by the administrator of the electronic device 110 and may be set to 0, or in consideration of reserve manpower for each camp, the first threshold may be set to N (N is a natural number greater than or equal to 1). . If it is confirmed that the first available resource information exceeds the first threshold, the procedure may proceed to step S730. Meanwhile, if it is confirmed that the first available resource information does not exceed the first threshold, the procedure may proceed to step S740.

In step S730, the electronic device 110 may maintain the activation state of the first time slot corresponding to the first available resource information exceeding the first threshold. The first time slot maintaining the activated state may be provided to the user terminal 120 when first selection information for selecting an item to be allocated to the first camp is obtained again by the electronic device 110. Meanwhile, in step S740, the electronic device 110 may deactivate the first time slot corresponding to the first available resource information below the first threshold. The first time slot converted to the deactivated state may remain in the deactivated state unless a request to change the installation schedule corresponding to the first time slot is obtained.

FIG. 8 is a flowchart illustrating a method of managing a time slot based on a change request obtained from the user terminal 120 in the method of providing item installation schedule information according to an embodiment of the present disclosure.

In step S810, the electronic device 110 may obtain a change request for the second selection information related to the first time slot from the user terminal 120. The interface for obtaining the change request may be provided to the user terminal 120 from the electronic device 110 after obtaining the second selection information, and the user's input through the interface for obtaining the change request may be input to the user terminal ( When received at 120), the user terminal 120 may provide a change request related to the installation schedule for the item to the electronic device 110.

In step S820, the electronic device 110 may modify the first available resource information corresponding to the first time slot related to the second selection information based on the change request. For example, when the first available resource information corresponding to the first time slot related to the second selection information is modified through step S710 in FIG. 7 described above, the electronic device 110 modifies the first available resource information based on the change request. 1 The first available resource information corresponding to the time slot can be restored to its original state before modification. Specifically, when the number of workers capable of performing installation work in the time period corresponding to the first time slot is reduced from 10 to 9 through step S710, the electronic device 110 receives the number of workers deducted from 9 based on the change request. The number of workers can be modified to 10. On the other hand, if 2 people are required to install the item, and the number of workers who can perform the installation work in the time period corresponding to the first time slot is reduced from 10 to 8 through step S710, the electronic device (110) can modify the number of 8 workers deducted to 10 based on the change request.

In step S830, the electronic device 110 may check whether the first available resource information modified in step S820 exceeds the first threshold. The first threshold may be set by the administrator of the electronic device 110 and may be set to 0 or N (N is a natural number of 1 or more) considering the reserve manpower for each camp. If it is confirmed that the first available resource information exceeds the first threshold, the procedure may proceed to step S840. Meanwhile, if it is confirmed that the first available resource information does not exceed the first threshold, the procedure may proceed to step S850.

In step S840, the electronic device 110 may activate the first time slot corresponding to the first available resource information exceeding the first threshold. The activated first time slot may be provided to the user terminal 120 when first selection information for selecting an item to be allocated to the first camp is obtained again in the electronic device 110. Meanwhile, in step S850, the electronic device 110 may deactivate the first time slot corresponding to the first available resource information below the first threshold. The first time slot in the inactive state may remain in the inactive state unless a request to change the installation schedule corresponding to the first time slot is obtained.

In step S860, the electronic device 110 may modify the second available resource information corresponding to the second time slot related to the change request based on the change request obtained from the user terminal 120. For example, the number of workers capable of performing the installation work confirmed from the second available resource information corresponding to the second time slot provided in an active state to the user terminal 120 is 10, and the number of workers capable of performing the installation work is 10, and the second time slot from the user terminal 120 is 10. When a change request for the time slot is obtained, the electronic device 110 can modify the second available resource information by subtracting the number of workers who can perform installation work in the time slot corresponding to the second time slot by 9. there is. In some embodiments, when two people are required to install a specific item, the electronic device 110 subtracts two from the number of workers corresponding to the slot, rather than deducting one worker as in the above-described example. Thus, the second available resource information can be modified.

In step S870, the electronic device 110 may check whether the second available resource information modified in step S860 exceeds the first threshold. If it is confirmed that the second available resource information exceeds the first threshold, the procedure may proceed to step S880. Meanwhile, if it is confirmed that the second available resource information does not exceed the first threshold, the procedure may proceed to step S890.

In step S880, the electronic device 110 may maintain the second time slot corresponding to the second available resource information exceeding the first threshold in an activated state. The activated second time slot may be provided to the user terminal 120 when the first selection information for selecting an item to be allocated to the first camp is obtained again in the electronic device 110. Meanwhile, in step S890, the electronic device 110 may deactivate the second time slot corresponding to the second available resource information below the first threshold. The second time slot in the inactive state may remain in the inactive state unless a request to change the installation schedule corresponding to the second time slot is obtained.

Figure 9 is a flowchart for explaining a method of providing worker placement information to a camp terminal in the method of providing item installation schedule information according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. Processing of worker placement information may be performed based on first selection information and second selection information obtained from the user terminal 120.

In step S910, the electronic device 110 may check the total order quantity of items requiring installation allocated to the first camp. The electronic device 110 may acquire item information based on the first selection information, and determine whether or not the installation task of the first camp is assigned based on the item type information and second selection information derived based on the item information. You can.

In step S920, the electronic device 110 may check whether the total order quantity of items requiring installation allocated to the first camp exceeds the second threshold. The second threshold may be set by the administrator of the electronic device 110, and includes date information related to the second selection information obtained from the camp terminal 130 corresponding to the first camp through the page of FIG. 3 described above, and It is set equal to the corresponding total available resource information, or N is the total available resource corresponding to the date information related to the second selection information obtained from the camp terminal 130 corresponding to the first camp, taking reserve manpower for each camp into consideration. It can be set to a number smaller than resource information). If the total order quantity is confirmed to exceed the second threshold, the procedure may proceed to step S930, and if the total order quantity is confirmed to be below the second threshold, the procedure may proceed to step S940.

In step S930, the electronic device 110 may distribute the item installation task for a portion of the total order quantity that exceeds the second threshold to the second camp. The second camp may be a camp selected based on the user's address information and the second camp information, and in some embodiments, may be selected by additionally considering installation information and worker information related to the item. Specifically, the second camp can be selected as one of the camps that can provide installation services for items at the user's address based on the user's address information, and performs installation work for the item based on installation information related to the item. When a specific license is required, the electronic device 110 may select a second camp by checking whether a worker holding a specific license belongs to the camp based on worker information.

In step S940, the electronic device 110 may perform worker placement for the task of installing items assigned to the first camp. In an embodiment, the electronic device 110 may perform scheduling for the worker's installation work based on installation date information and installation time information related to the second selection information obtained from the user terminal 120. For example, when second selection information for a first time slot on a specific date is obtained from three users, the electronic device 110 performs a first item installation task corresponding to the second selection information obtained from the first user. A first worker is assigned to the second item installation task corresponding to the second selection information obtained from the second user, and a second worker is assigned to the second item installation task corresponding to the second selection information obtained from the third user. 3 A third worker can be assigned for item installation work.

Meanwhile, the electronic device 110 may perform worker placement by considering the worker's movement line. For example, second selection information for the first time slot is obtained from the first and second users, second selection information for the second time slot is obtained from the third and fourth users, and the first user's If the address and the third user's address are adjacent, and the second user's address is adjacent to the fourth user's address, the electronic device 110 assigns the task of installing items for the first and third users to the first worker, and , item installation tasks for the second and fourth users can be assigned to the second worker.

Additionally, the electronic device 110 may perform worker placement for the first camp by additionally considering item information and worker information. Item information may include at least part of item quantity information and item size information. The worker information may include at least part of the worker's license information and vehicle information for each worker, and the vehicle information for each worker may include at least a portion of the worker's vehicle type information and vehicle load information for each worker.

For example, when a specific license is required to install a specific item, the electronic device 110 may perform worker assignment for workers holding the corresponding license based on worker information. On the other hand, when item A can only be loaded on a vehicle of a certain size or larger, the electronic device 110 limits the installation work for item A to workers who have a vehicle of a certain size or larger based on the item size information and vehicle information for each worker. If a maximum of N items (N is a natural number) can be loaded in a specific vehicle, the electronic device 110 provides information to the worker holding the vehicle based on item size information and vehicle information for each worker. For this reason, worker placement can be performed for the installation of up to N A items.

Meanwhile, the electronic device 110 may provide installation availability schedule information and additionally provide the user terminal 120 with an interface for obtaining installation environment information. The electronic device 110 may obtain installation environment information related to the item the user wishes to purchase from the user terminal 120, and may perform worker placement by considering the obtained installation environment information. For example, when the purchase of an air conditioner is requested by the first user, the electronic device 110 may obtain information from the user about whether drilling in the wall is necessary for installing the air conditioner through an interface for obtaining installation environment information. , if wall perforation is required, a longer time can be allocated to the installation work for the first user. Specifically, if wall drilling is not necessary, the installation work in the time zone corresponding to the first time slot and the installation work in the time zone corresponding to the second time slot may be assigned to the first worker, but if wall drilling is required, the first worker may be assigned the installation work in the time zone corresponding to the first time slot. 1 The installation work in the time zone corresponding to the time slot is assigned to the first worker, but the installation work in the time zone corresponding to the second time slot can be excluded.

In step S950, the electronic device 110 may provide worker placement information generated for the first camp to the camp terminal 130 corresponding to the first camp, and the worker associated with the first camp may use the electronic device 110 Installation work on items can be performed based on worker placement information provided from .
