V. INSTRUCTION DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION (1) Technical Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a merchandise (c 〇mm 〇dity) management system, a merchandise management program, and a price card, and more particularly to an automatic acquisition of a product-related location message. And a commodity management system, a merchandise management program, and a price old card explaining which product is sold at this location. [Prior Art] In recent years, Shangyu has learned to use barcodes or radio frequency identification (RFID) tags to efficiently manage goods and goods placed on display stands. For bar code merchandise management, the reader must be used to scan the bar code attached to the merchandise. On the other hand, the application of the RFID tag can automatically and g-read the related information of the corresponding product. '曰本公告专利申请号(Japanese patent

No. 200 1 -31 2 1 8)JP-A-200 1 -3 1 2 1 8 Expose a common example of a commodity management system (more on this later, shown in Figure 4), a known business The management system includes: a multi-segment store or display for auction of goods:: a radio frequency identification (rfid) tag having a single identification code for each product; and a registration machine for writing an identification code to the identification identification tag a plurality of readout units, each of the readout units including an antenna for receiving the signal from the camera identification tag i, and a reader for reading the signal received by the antenna, the antenna and the reader being connected to each other; And an information management means for transmitting the read identification code. A |. The traditional commodity management system with the above structure operates as follows. First, use the registrar to write the identification code of the received product to the radio frequency identification (RFID) tag.

1271657 V. Description of the invention (2) and setting for each sector read unit - individual address. Next, the spoon and the ^: in the product identification, including the type <, price and the like of the goods: day w corresponds to the address set for the reading unit = message all left A4 A instrument handle section of the mean ) The medium-interest management device (infQrmatiQn _agement is located in Γ 加 加 (there is a radio frequency identification tag attached to the code, which will be attached to the later = V 2): when the product is put on the shelf, the identification of the display is 5= 2. Buy the identification code on the RFID tag, and read the rumbling transmission to the message management device to match the address. Example η - some products are sold == that is, the identification code on the label cannot be recognized by the display. Then read out the order; then two message management tools are displayed on the display unit of the m management device.

1271657 V. Description of the invention (3) It can be pointed out that when the position information of the position of the display frame is input to the portable terminal ,, the position of each item can be identified. However, in the patent of JP-A-2 1-3 1-218, the disadvantage is that a 1C wafer having a sesame grain in a radio frequency identification tag can be easily used. =ς: expensive (in 2, 〇 3 years; dozens of rounds to hundreds of rounds). : this,;;: j = point test summer, the use of radio frequency tags as management package products is particularly difficult, when a low-selling business port to suppress fine * > smart squat top squat to solve this shortcoming; Tech Erle: The 仏 is a few dozen rounds (yen). The unit price is equal to a few rounds or;; the advantage of technology = lower the RFID tag. When a product is dropped, A two? = A workable solution is to remove the RF tag from each sale to the other three RF tags and then repeat it so that many times, in the sales quantity;; the second standard will take up the clerk difficulty. The originator or store of the 18th has implemented this method. It is even more so that the 'clerk's input of the position information by the mammoth bar code φ 0 ^ ^~^ is read and read on the price card, that is, the bar is executed; Every time the clerk wants to enter the location plus the workload of the clerk. It takes a lot of time to take the job, so it is added. [Invention] A program of the present invention is for providing a location information of a product management system and a commodity management product.颏Increased workload, the first invention according to the present invention can be obtained at low cost: a commodity management system is provided, and a commodity management system is provided, which is provided with a package for placing and placing 2149-6 456 on the display rack. PF(N3).ptd Page 8 1271657 V. INSTRUCTIONS (4) 'Commodity-commodity type and storage, information reading device, provide product information for I. And storing the product information reading device for the product having the product. The product information reading device reads the product information and displays the position of the shelf. The product message storage device can be attached with a message of the price of the product. In this case, the storage device attached to the conventional price card is placed on each product for the price card, and the quotient printed on the price card is, for example, a replacement module for the replacement of the module. The price card is repeatedly used to enable the use of an RFID tag, and the message can be recognized by the commodity message reading device in real time. Receive messages here. The RFID tag can be used to store product information because it is replaced by a module and stored in the RFID tag. Reading out the product information storage and storage management device on a merchandise message rack, storing the location information of the display rack via a communication network, providing a message storage and reading device, and setting the information according to the stored location information and the product information. Explain that the items displayed on each item are added to a price card to describe the inclusion of the product information storage device because of the low cost of the product information. μ An overwriteable overwrite card. The message in this example can be overwritten; therefore, even if the product message is used, the price card can be overwritten by the merchant. Produce a commodity message storage device.

In order to increase the purchase of the store in the J number, according to the second object of the present invention, the computer executes: a product message reading program, a order product management program for storing the product information in a storage device, & a communication network reads the goods placed adjacent to the display rack; and - the two households are provided with a location information of the display rack to the main storage program, for depositing the Wei Ling set and according to the product information Read Page 10 2149-6 456-PF(N3).ptd 1271657

V. Description of the invention (6) The program reads out the stored location message and the display price location message to indicate that each merchandise management program is used to allow the customer to sell the merchandise to generate the merchandise and the quantity thereof; Product sales information and shelf location information to display information about the products sold. By this structure, well, which location is sold poorly. The number of U ports can be increased to increase the sales of the store. According to the present invention, it is possible to reduce the time and effort of the clerk without the clerk's time and effort. [Embodiment] The product information is generated at a position where the product information is displayed in another product. Computer Execution: A calculation program for product sales information to detail the sales management program. According to the calculation program, the quantity of the display generated by the storage management program and the display position of the placement display can indicate which display is displayed.
