The product replacement support system 1 includes a terminal 10 and a server 20. The terminal 10 and the server 20 are communicably connected via a communication line N of a computer network, for example, and the server 20 corresponds to the first product in response to input of information indicating the first product from the terminal 10. The terminal 10 is provided with information related to the second product, which is another product. In FIG. 1, the number of terminals 10 connected to the server 20 is one, but a plurality of terminals 10 may be provided.
　本実施形態の製品置換支援システム１で取り扱われる第１の製品及び第２の製品は、リニアガイドである。リニアガイドとは、移動体（例えば、図２９に示すベアリング２００）及び当該移動体が設けられる軌道（例えば、図２９に示すレール２０１）を包括する製品である。 The first product and the second product handled by the product replacement support system 1 of the present embodiment are linear guides. The linear guide is a product including a moving body (for example, the bearing 200 shown in FIG. 29) and a track (for example, the rail 201 shown in FIG. 29) on which the moving body is provided.
　本実施形態では、第２の製品にオプションを適用可能である。オプションは、第２の製品に適用するか否かを任意に選択可能な付加的特徴である。オプションの具体例として、例えば、めっき処理などの表面処理、転動体や軌道に潤滑剤を供給するための供給ユニットの付加、防塵に関する構成（シール部材等）の付加、その他の付属品（取付用の穴に設けられるキャップ等）の付加等が挙げられる。また、第２の製品で標準的に用いられる材料の一部又は全部を別の材料に置き換えるための注文、精度に関する限定事項、予圧に関する限定事項等もオプションとして適用することができる。精度に関する限定事項とは、第２の製品に採用されるリニアガイドがレールに沿った直動に伴い生じ得る変動（レールの延設方向に直交する二方向に対応する、所謂縦変動、横変動等）をどこまで許容するかを示す事項である。精度に関する限定事項は、例えば予め定められた複数パターンの「変動の上限値」に対応する記号（等級）により定められるが、一例であってこれに限られるものでなく、国際規格又は特定国の規格等により精度に関する指標が定められた場合等にその規格を用いるようにしてもよい。予圧に関する限定事項とは、ベアリングとレールとの間に設けられる転動体によりベアリングとレールの軌道に加えられる力（予圧）を指定するための事項である。予圧に関する限定事項では、例えば予圧の有無及び予圧がある場合の予圧の度合いを示す記号（等級）により定められるが、一例であってこれに限られるものでなく、国際規格又は特定国の規格等により精度に関する指標が定められた場合等にその規格を用いるようにしてもよい。このように、オプションは、精度、予圧、材料、表面処理、潤滑又は防塵の少なくともいずれか一つに関する特徴を含む。 In this embodiment, options can be applied to the second product. The option is an additional feature that can be arbitrarily selected whether to apply to the second product. Specific examples of options include, for example, surface treatment such as plating, addition of a supply unit for supplying lubricant to rolling elements and tracks, addition of a dust-proof configuration (seal member, etc.), and other accessories (for mounting) Addition of a cap or the like provided in the hole. In addition, an order for replacing a part or all of the material that is typically used in the second product with another material, a limit related to accuracy, a limit related to preload, and the like can be applied as options. The limit on accuracy is the variation that the linear guide used in the second product can cause with the linear movement along the rail (so-called longitudinal variation and lateral variation corresponding to two directions orthogonal to the rail extension direction). Etc.) is an item indicating how much is allowed. Limitations related to accuracy are determined by, for example, symbols (grades) corresponding to predetermined “variation upper limit values” of a plurality of patterns, but are not limited to this example, and are not limited to international standards or specific countries. The standard may be used when an index related to accuracy is determined by the standard or the like. The limitation regarding the preload is a matter for designating the force (preload) applied to the bearing and rail track by the rolling elements provided between the bearing and the rail. For example, pre-load restrictions are defined by the presence or absence of pre-load and the symbol (grade) that indicates the degree of pre-load when there is a pre-load. However, this is an example, and is not limited to this. The standard may be used when an index relating to accuracy is determined by the above. Thus, the options include features relating to at least one of accuracy, preload, material, surface treatment, lubrication, or dust protection.

This is an example of an input / output mode of the software program or the like, and is not limited to this. The specific form of input / output can be changed as appropriate.
　図４は、サーバ２０の機能の一例を示す機能ブロック図である。サーバ２０は、演算部２２が製品置換支援プログラム３０を実行することで、データベース４１、抽出部４２、表示制御部４３、出力部４４、図面生成部４５等として機能する。また、サーバ２０は、上記のように記憶部２１を備える。サーバ２０の記憶部２１は、製品置換支援プログラム３０の一部として、第２の製品の寸法を確認するための参考図である標準図面７２の表示に用いられる標準図面データ３２を記憶する（図２０参照）。 FIG. 4 is a functional block diagram illustrating an example of functions of the server 20. The server 20 functions as the database 41, the extraction unit 42, the display control unit 43, the output unit 44, the drawing generation unit 45, and the like when the calculation unit 22 executes the product replacement support program 30. Further, the server 20 includes the storage unit 21 as described above. The storage unit 21 of the server 20 stores, as a part of the product replacement support program 30, standard drawing data 32 used for displaying a standard drawing 72 that is a reference drawing for confirming the dimensions of the second product (see FIG. 20).
　サーバ２０の記憶部２１は、製品置換支援プログラム３０の一部として、演算部２２に読み出されることでデータベース４１等として機能するソフトウェア・プログラム及び当該データベース４１で取り扱われるデータを記憶する。図３では、係るソフトウェア・プログラム等を「ＤＢデータ３１」として図示している。ＤＢデータ３１により、サーバ２０は、データベース４１として機能する。データベース４１は、第１の型番を含む第１の製品に関する情報と第２の製品に関する情報（第２の型番等）とを対応付ける。なお、第１の型番とは、第１の製品を示す型番である。第２の型番とは、第２の製品を示す型番である。第１の型番、第２の型番を用いることで、第１の製品、第２の製品を特定することができる。 The storage unit 21 of the server 20 stores, as part of the product replacement support program 30, a software program that functions as the database 41 by being read by the calculation unit 22 and data handled by the database 41. In FIG. 3, the software program or the like is illustrated as “DB data 31”. With the DB data 31, the server 20 functions as the database 41. The database 41 associates information related to the first product including the first model number and information related to the second product (such as the second model number). Note that the first model number is a model number indicating the first product. The second model number is a model number indicating the second product. By using the first model number and the second model number, the first product and the second product can be specified.
　図５～図８は、データベース４１によって実現される情報の対応付けの一例を示す図である。図５～図８では、第１の型番の一部として「ＢＢＢ」の文字列を有する第１の製品に関する情報と、この第１の製品に対応する第２の製品に関する情報との対応付けの一例を示している。図５～図８に示すように、本実施形態では、第１の型番を構成するフレーズが複数の表（テーブル）に分散して記憶されている。サーバ２０の演算部２２は、これら複数のテーブルに記憶された情報の組み合わせにより第１の型番を含む第１の製品に関する情報と第２の製品に関する情報（第２の型番等）とを対応付ける。具体的には、データベース４１によって、第１の型番に含まれる「シリーズ」、「サイズ」、「ベアリング形式」のフレーズと、第２の型番に含まれる「シリーズ」、「サイズ」、「ベアリング形式」のフレーズとが対応付けられる（図５参照）。また、データベース４１によって、第１の型番に含まれる「シリーズ」、「サイズ」、「予圧」、「精度」のフレーズと、第２の型番に含まれる「予圧」、「精度」のフレーズとが対応付けられる（図６参照）。言い換えれば、第２の製品の「予圧」、「精度」を特定するためには、第１の型番に含まれる「予圧」、「精度」のフレーズだけでなく「シリーズ」、「サイズ」のフレーズも必要ということである。また、データベース４１によって、第１の型番に含まれる「防塵部品記号」と、第２の製品における「防塵部品番号」とが対応付けられる（図７参照）。図７のデータでは、「防塵部品記号」を単に「記号」と示し、「防塵部品番号」を単に「番号」と示している。また、データベース４１によって、第１の型番に含まれる「ベアリング材料記号」、「レール材料記号」と、第２の第２の製品における「ベアリング材料番号」、「レール材料番号」とが対応付けられる（図８参照）。図８のデータでは、「ベアリング材料記号」、「レール材料記号」を単に「記号」と示し、「ベアリング材料番号」、「レール材料番号」を単に「番号」と示している。サーバ２０は、データベース４１としての機能によって、第１の型番から、第１の型番が示す第１の製品に対応する第２の製品に関する情報（第２の型番等）を特定することができる。図示を省略しているが、データベース４１は、第１の型番の一部として「ＢＢＢ」以外の文字列を有する第１の製品についても同様に、第１の型番を含む第１の製品に関する情報と第２の製品に関する情報とを対応付ける。 5 to 8 are diagrams showing an example of information correspondence realized by the database 41. FIG. In FIGS. 5 to 8, the association between the information related to the first product having the character string “BBB” as a part of the first model number and the information related to the second product corresponding to the first product is performed. An example is shown. As shown in FIGS. 5 to 8, in this embodiment, phrases constituting the first model number are distributed and stored in a plurality of tables. The computing unit 22 of the server 20 associates information related to the first product including the first model number with information related to the second product (such as the second model number) by combining information stored in the plurality of tables. Specifically, the database 41 uses the phrase “series”, “size”, “bearing type” included in the first model number, and “series”, “size”, “bearing type” included in the second model number. Are associated with each other (see FIG. 5). The database 41 also includes phrases “series”, “size”, “preload”, and “accuracy” included in the first model number, and phrases “preload” and “accuracy” included in the second model number. Corresponding (see FIG. 6). In other words, in order to specify the “preload” and “accuracy” of the second product, not only the “preload” and “accuracy” phrases included in the first model number but also the “series” and “size” phrases. Is also necessary. Further, the database 41 associates the “dust-proof part symbol” included in the first model number with the “dust-proof part number” in the second product (see FIG. 7). In the data of FIG. 7, the “dustproof part symbol” is simply indicated as “symbol”, and the “dustproof part number” is simply indicated as “number”. Further, the database 41 associates “bearing material symbol” and “rail material symbol” included in the first model number with “bearing material number” and “rail material number” in the second second product. (See FIG. 8). In the data of FIG. 8, “bearing material symbol” and “rail material symbol” are simply indicated as “symbol”, and “bearing material number” and “rail material number” are simply indicated as “number”. The server 20 can specify information (second model number, etc.) related to the second product corresponding to the first product indicated by the first model number from the first model number by the function as the database 41. Although not shown, the database 41 similarly applies to the first product including the first model number for the first product having a character string other than “BBB” as a part of the first model number. Is associated with information on the second product.
　具体例を挙げると、第１の型番の「シリーズ」、「サイズ」、「ベアリング形式」のフレーズがそれぞれ「ＢＢＢ」、「１５」、「Ａ」である場合、サーバ２０は、係るフレーズに対応する第２の型番の「シリーズ」、「サイズ」、「ベアリング形式」のフレーズが「ＮＨ」、「１５」、「ＡＮ」であると特定する。他のフレーズについても、サーバ２０は、データベース４１に記憶されたデータに基づいて第１の型番のフレーズに対応する第２の型番のフレーズを特定することができる。 For example, if the phrases “Series”, “Size”, and “Bearing type” of the first model number are “BBB”, “15”, and “A”, respectively, the server 20 corresponds to the phrase. The phrases “series”, “size”, and “bearing type” of the second model number are identified as “NH”, “15”, and “AN”. Also for other phrases, the server 20 can specify the phrase of the second model number corresponding to the phrase of the first model number based on the data stored in the database 41.
　なお、データベース４１は、第２の型番として表に出ることがないフレーズに関するデータを含んでいてもよい。例えば、図７における「防塵部品番号」及び図８におけるベアリング及びレールの材料番号である「番号」は、第２の型番に現れない。係る「防塵部品番号」及び「番号」は、サーバ２０が第２の製品を特定するためのデータとして用いる。例えば、図１２等に示す入出力画面６０の第２エリア６２に含まれる「材料・表面処理記号」の決定に際して、ベアリング及びレールの材料番号である「番号」が用いられる。 Note that the database 41 may include data on a phrase that does not appear in the table as the second model number. For example, the “dust-proof part number” in FIG. 7 and the “number” that is the material number of the bearing and rail in FIG. 8 do not appear in the second model number. The “dust-proof part number” and “number” are used as data for the server 20 to identify the second product. For example, in determining the “material / surface treatment symbol” included in the second area 62 of the input / output screen 60 shown in FIG. 12 and the like, the “number” which is the material number of the bearing and rail is used.
　また、第１の型番のフレーズは、データベース４１により第２の型番と対応付ける必要がないフレーズを含んでいてもよい。具体例を挙げると、「ベアリング数」、「レール長」のようなリニアガイドのベアリング数及びレール長の具体的数値を示すフレーズは、製品の製造元による差異が事実上存在せず、原則として第１の製品のフレーズが示す数値をそのまま第２の製品に適用することができることから、データベース４１による対応付けを必要としない。 Also, the phrase of the first model number may include a phrase that does not need to be associated with the second model number by the database 41. For example, phrases that indicate the specific number of linear guide bearings and rail lengths such as “Number of bearings” and “Rail length” are virtually non-existent due to product manufacturers. Since the numerical value indicated by the phrase of one product can be applied to the second product as it is, the association by the database 41 is not required.
　また、本実施形態では、図６における「予圧」等で例を示す通り、文字列が入らないことが有り得るフレーズにおいて文字列がないことを示すデータとして「（無記号）」が用いられている。 Further, in this embodiment, as shown by an example of “preload” in FIG. 6, “(no symbol)” is used as data indicating that there is no character string in a phrase that may not contain a character string. .
　図９～図１１は、第２の製品の寸法等の一例を示す図である。本実施形態の製品置換支援システム１のデータベース４１は、上記の第１の型番と第２の製品に関する情報との対応付けに用いられるデータに加えて、さらに、各製品の寸法及び基本定格荷重（以下、「寸法等」と記載する）を示す各種の数値情報が記録されたデータを有する。本実施形態では、図５～図８に示すデータと、図９及び図１０に示すデータとは、製品の型番（第２の型番）のうち「シリーズ」、「サイズ」、「形式」及び「防塵部品番号」のフレーズにより対応付けられているが、これは対応付けのためのフレーズの具体例に過ぎず、これらのフレーズの一部が省略されてもよいし、他のフレーズを含んでいてもよい。なお、寸法等の数値情報を示すデータは必ずしも製品の置換に必須ではなく、省略可能である。また、図示を省略しているが、本実施形態では、第１の製品の寸法についても、第２の製品と同様に記録されている。 9 to 11 are diagrams showing an example of the dimensions and the like of the second product. The database 41 of the product replacement support system 1 according to the present embodiment further includes the size and basic load rating of each product (in addition to the data used for associating the first model number with the information related to the second product). Hereinafter, it has data in which various numerical information indicating "dimensions" is recorded. In the present embodiment, the data shown in FIGS. 5 to 8 and the data shown in FIGS. 9 and 10 are “series”, “size”, “form” and “model” among the product model numbers (second model numbers). It is associated with the phrase “dust-proof part number”, but this is only a specific example of the phrase for association, and some of these phrases may be omitted or include other phrases. Also good. Note that data indicating numerical information such as dimensions is not necessarily essential for product replacement and can be omitted. Although not shown, in the present embodiment, the dimensions of the first product are recorded in the same manner as the second product.
　図９、図１０と図１１との関係で示すように、製品の寸法は複数のテーブルにより特定されるようになっていてもよい。具体的には、本実施形態における第２の製品は、適用される防塵仕様のオプションによってベアリングの長さ（Ｌ）の寸法が変わることがある。第１の製品でも、防塵仕様のオプションによってベアリングの長さ（Ｌ）の寸法が変わることがある。このため、本実施形態では、サーバ２０は、第２の型番の「シリーズ」、「サイズ」、「ベアリング形式」のフレーズから図９、図１０に示すデータを用いて基本的な長さ（Ｌ）を含む第２の製品の寸法等を特定し、「防塵仕様番号」と図１１に示すデータを用いて長さ（Ｌ）を上書きする。 As shown in the relationship between FIG. 9, FIG. 10, and FIG. 11, the dimensions of the product may be specified by a plurality of tables. Specifically, in the second product in the present embodiment, the dimension of the bearing length (L) may vary depending on the dustproof option to be applied. Even in the first product, the length (L) of the bearing may change depending on the dust-proof specification option. For this reason, in this embodiment, the server 20 uses the data shown in FIGS. 9 and 10 from the phrases “series”, “size”, and “bearing type” of the second model number to use the basic length (L ) And the like, and the length (L) is overwritten using the “dust-proof specification number” and the data shown in FIG.
　抽出部４２は、端末１０を介して入力された第１の型番を用いてデータベース４１から少なくとも第２の製品に関する情報を抽出する。本実施形態の抽出部４２は、第１の型番から第２の製品に関する情報を抽出する処理において、第１の型番と対応付けられた第２の型番等を読み出すことに加えて、第１の型番に対応する第１の製品の数値情報及び第２の製品の数値情報を読み出す。表示制御部４３は、抽出部４２により抽出された情報に基づいて表示部１５に表示される情報の表示態様を制御する。出力部４４は、抽出部４２による抽出結果に基づいた第２の製品の受注に用いられる製品仕様情報を出力する。抽出部４２、表示制御部４３及び出力部４４の詳細については後述する。 The extraction unit 42 extracts at least information related to the second product from the database 41 using the first model number input via the terminal 10. In the process of extracting information related to the second product from the first model number, the extraction unit 42 according to the present embodiment reads the second model number associated with the first model number in addition to reading the first model number. The numerical information of the first product and the numerical information of the second product corresponding to the model number are read out. The display control unit 43 controls the display mode of information displayed on the display unit 15 based on the information extracted by the extraction unit 42. The output unit 44 outputs product specification information used for ordering the second product based on the extraction result obtained by the extraction unit 42. Details of the extraction unit 42, the display control unit 43, and the output unit 44 will be described later.
　図面生成部４５は、第２の製品を示す図面の出力に用いられる納入品仕様図データを生成する。具体的には、サーバ２０の記憶部２１は、製品置換支援プログラム３０の一部として、演算部２２に読み出されることでＣＡＤエンジンとして機能するソフトウェア・プログラム及び当該ＣＡＤエンジンで取り扱われるデータを記憶する。図３では、係るソフトウェア・プログラム等を「ＣＡＤ３３」として図示している。本実施形態の図面生成部４５は、当該ＣＡＤエンジンである。 The drawing generation unit 45 generates delivery specification diagram data used for outputting a drawing indicating the second product. Specifically, the storage unit 21 of the server 20 stores, as part of the product replacement support program 30, a software program that functions as a CAD engine by being read by the calculation unit 22 and data handled by the CAD engine. . In FIG. 3, the software program or the like is illustrated as “CAD33”. The drawing generation unit 45 of this embodiment is the CAD engine.
　ＣＡＤエンジンで取り扱われるデータは、抽出された第２の製品に応じたＣＡＤデータを動的に生成するためのデータである。ＣＡＤエンジンは、第２の型番及び第２の型番に含まれない番号を用いてＣＡＤエンジンで取り扱われるデータから図面の生成の対象となる製品のデータ（第２の型番に対応するデータ）を抽出し、抽出されたデータを用いて納入品仕様図データを生成する。より具体的には、おおよそ仕様単位で作図データがあらかじめ用意されており、ＣＡＤエンジンは、仕様の組み合わせに対応して作図データを組み合わせて一つの製品に対応した納入品仕様図データを生成する。「仕様単位」の細分化の度合いは任意である。例えば、抽出部４２により抽出された第２の製品の諸元のうち防塵仕様が適用される前の第２の製品の図面データと、防塵仕様毎に上書きされる寸法に対応する部分を示す図面データとを予め用意するようにしてもよいし、他の方法で図面データを細分化してもよい。 The data handled by the CAD engine is data for dynamically generating CAD data corresponding to the extracted second product. The CAD engine uses the second model number and a number not included in the second model number to extract product data (data corresponding to the second model number) from which data is handled by the CAD engine. Then, delivery specification drawing data is generated using the extracted data. More specifically, drawing data is prepared in advance in units of specifications, and the CAD engine generates delivered product specification drawing data corresponding to one product by combining the drawing data corresponding to the combination of specifications. The degree of subdivision of the “specification unit” is arbitrary. For example, among the specifications of the second product extracted by the extracting unit 42, the drawing data of the second product before the dust-proof specification is applied, and the part corresponding to the dimensions overwritten for each dust-proof specification Data may be prepared in advance, or the drawing data may be subdivided by other methods.
　また、製品置換支援プログラム３０は、第１の型番の入力等を行うユーザーを特定するための仕組みを構成するソフトウェア・プログラムを含んでいてもよい。例えば、製品置換支援プログラム３０は、製品置換支援プログラム３０を利用可能なユーザーに関する情報が記録されたユーザーデータベースと、当該ユーザーデータベースに基づいた認証処理を行うためのソフトウェア・プログラムを含んでいてもよい。ユーザーに関する情報は、例えばユーザーＩＤ、パスワード、メールアドレス、製品の納品時に用いられる宛先等を含む。さらに、製品置換支援プログラム３０は、ユーザーの新規登録のための仕組みを構成するソフトウェア・プログラムを含んでいてもよい。 Further, the product replacement support program 30 may include a software program that constitutes a mechanism for specifying a user who inputs the first model number. For example, the product replacement support program 30 may include a user database in which information on users who can use the product replacement support program 30 is recorded, and a software program for performing authentication processing based on the user database. . Information about the user includes, for example, a user ID, a password, an e-mail address, a destination used when the product is delivered, and the like. Further, the product replacement support program 30 may include a software program that constitutes a mechanism for new user registration.
　また、端末１０及びサーバ２０は、ＢＩＯＳ（Basic　Input／Output　System）又はＵＥＦＩ（Unified　Extensible　Firmware　Interface）を記憶したＲＯＭ又はフラッシュメモリ等のような、コンピュータの起動のための構成を有する。 Further, the terminal 10 and the server 20 have a configuration for starting up a computer, such as a ROM or flash memory storing BIOS (Basic Input / Output System) or UEFI (Unified Extensible Firmware Interface).
　図１２は、入出力画面６０の一例を示す図である。以下、図１２～図２４及び図２７は、端末１０で実行されたウェブブラウザを介して表示される画面である。サーバ２０の演算部２２は、製品置換支援プログラム３０を実行することで、これらの各画面における表示内容に対応したスクリプトを実行して端末１０に送信する。 FIG. 12 is a diagram illustrating an example of the input / output screen 60. 12 to 24 and 27 are screens displayed via the web browser executed on the terminal 10 below. The calculation unit 22 of the server 20 executes the product replacement support program 30 to execute a script corresponding to the display content on each of these screens and transmit the script to the terminal 10.
　入出力画面６０は、例えば図１２に示すように、第１の製品を示す第１の型番の入力等に用いられる第１エリア６１と、第２の製品を示す第２の型番の表示出力等に用いられる第２エリア６２と、第２の製品のオプションに関する情報の表示出力等に用いられる第３エリア６３と、第２の型番の標記例を示す第４エリア６４と、第１の型番の標記例を示す第５エリア６５と、を有する。図１２等における各エリアの配置、表示サイズの大小関係等のレイアウトに関する具体的な特徴はあくまで一例であり、適宜変更可能である。以下の説明及び当該説明で用いられる各図では、第１の製品がＢ社の製品であり、第２の製品がＡ社の製品である場合を例として説明する。 For example, as shown in FIG. 12, the input / output screen 60 includes a first area 61 used for inputting the first model number indicating the first product, a display output of the second model number indicating the second product, and the like. The second area 62 used for the second product, the third area 63 used for display output of information on the option of the second product, the fourth area 64 showing a mark example of the second model number, and the first model number And a fifth area 65 showing a title example. Specific features regarding the layout such as the arrangement of areas and the size relationship of display sizes in FIG. 12 and the like are merely examples, and can be changed as appropriate. In the following description and each figure used in the description, a case where the first product is a product of company B and the second product is a product of company A will be described as an example.
　図１３は、第１エリア６１の表示内容の一例を示す図である。第１エリア６１は、第１の型番を構成する複数のフレーズの各々を個別に入力するための複数の入力領域により構成される入力フォームを有する。具体的には、第１エリア６１の入力フォームを構成する複数の入力領域は、第１の型番を構成する複数のフレーズの各々が示す情報（属性）に対応している。より具体的には、本実施形態の入出力画面６０では第１エリア６１に表示される初期状態の入力フォームは、例えば図１３に示すように、「シリーズ」、「サイズ」、「ベアリング形式」、「ベアリング数」、「防塵部品記号」、「予圧」、「ベアリング材料記号」、「レール長」、「精度」及び「レール材料記号」の入力領域により構成される。これらの入力領域のうち、「レール長」の入力領域は、所定の範囲内（例えば０～１００００）の任意の数字（例えば、単位：ミリメートル）を入力可能なテキストボックス形式の入力領域として設けられる。また、これらの入力領域のうち、「レール長」以外の入力領域は、各フレーズに対応する一又は複数の文字列の候補から一の文字列を選択するためのプルダウンメニュー形式の入力領域として設けられる。本実施形態では、端末１０を利用するユーザーは、係る入力フォームに対する入力を以て第１の型番を入力する。なお、「レール長」の下限及び上限ならびに単位は任意である。 FIG. 13 is a diagram showing an example of the display contents of the first area 61. The first area 61 has an input form configured by a plurality of input areas for individually inputting a plurality of phrases constituting the first model number. Specifically, the plurality of input areas constituting the input form of the first area 61 correspond to information (attributes) indicated by each of the plurality of phrases constituting the first model number. More specifically, the input form in the initial state displayed in the first area 61 on the input / output screen 60 of the present embodiment is, for example, “series”, “size”, “bearing type” as shown in FIG. , “Number of bearings”, “Dust-proof part symbol”, “Preload”, “Bearing material symbol”, “Rail length”, “Accuracy” and “Rail material symbol”. Among these input areas, the “rail length” input area is provided as an input area in a text box format in which an arbitrary number (for example, unit: millimeter) within a predetermined range (for example, 0 to 10,000) can be input. . Among these input areas, the input areas other than the “rail length” are provided as pull-down menu type input areas for selecting one character string from one or a plurality of character string candidates corresponding to each phrase. It is done. In the present embodiment, the user who uses the terminal 10 inputs the first model number by inputting the input form. In addition, the lower limit and upper limit of “rail length” and the unit are arbitrary.
　図１４～図１６は、第１の型番の一部の入力が完了した後の第１エリア６１の表示内容の一例を示す図である。サーバ２０は、複数のフレーズのうち入力が完了した一部のフレーズにより限定又は特定可能な他のフレーズの組み合わせパターンに応じて入力が完了していない他のフレーズの入力領域を更新する。具体的には、例えば図１３に示すように、「シリーズ」の入力領域で選択されている文字列が「ＢＢＢ」である場合、サーバ２０は、「シリーズ」以降の右側に連続する他の入力領域を、「サイズ」、「ベアリング形式」、「ベアリング数」、「防塵部品記号」、「予圧」、「ベアリング材料記号」、「レール長」、「精度」及び「レール材料記号」の入力領域として第１エリア６１に表示させている。図１３に示す入力フォームは、データベース４１に記録されている情報のうち第１の型番の一部（冒頭）が「ＢＢＢ」である第１の製品に関する情報に対応する。ここで、端末１０を利用するユーザーの入力操作により「シリーズ」の入力領域されている文字列が「ＢＣＣ」になると、サーバ２０は、入力フォームを、データベース４１に記録されている情報のうち第１の型番の一部（冒頭）が「ＢＣＣ」である第１の製品に関する情報に対応した入力フォームにするようにしてもよい。具体的には、サーバ２０は、例えば図１４に示すように、「シリーズ」の入力領域を構成するプルダウンメニューを「シリーズ１」、「シリーズ２」のフレーズに応じて２つにするとともに、「シリーズ」以降の右側に連続する他の入力領域を、「サイズ」、「ベアリング形式」、「ベアリング数」、「レール長」、「材料記号」、「予圧」、「精度」、「記号（１）」、「記号（２）」、「記号（３）」及び「記号（４）」の入力領域にするようにしてもよい。このように、第１エリア６１の入力フォームを構成する入力領域の項目は、第１の型番の一部（例えば「シリーズ」）に応じて変化する。サーバ２０は、データベース４１に記録されている第１の型番に基づいて、当該一部の入力領域で選択されたフレーズ（例えば文字列）により限定又は特定可能な他のフレーズの組み合わせパターンに応じて入力が完了していない他のフレーズの入力領域を更新するようにしてもよい。なお、このような更新を行う場合、「ＢＢＢ」又は「ＢＣＣ」以外の他の「シリーズ」を示すフレーズの場合についても、サーバ２０は、他の入力領域を選択されたフレーズに対応した型番のフレーズに応じた入力領域とする。また、図１４では、図１３に示す第１エリア６１に表示された入力フォームとの差異を示すために符号を「６１ａ」としているが、図１４に示す入力フォームが表示されるのは第１エリア６１である。 FIGS. 14 to 16 are diagrams showing examples of display contents in the first area 61 after a part of the first model number has been input. The server 20 updates the input areas of other phrases that have not been input in accordance with the combination pattern of other phrases that can be limited or specified by some of the phrases that have been input among the plurality of phrases. Specifically, for example, as illustrated in FIG. 13, when the character string selected in the “series” input area is “BBB”, the server 20 selects another input on the right side after “series”. Input area of "Size", "Bearing type", "Number of bearings", "Dustproof part symbol", "Preload", "Bearing material symbol", "Rail length", "Accuracy" and "Rail material symbol" Is displayed in the first area 61. The input form shown in FIG. 13 corresponds to information related to the first product whose part (first part) of the first model number is “BBB” among the information recorded in the database 41. Here, when the character string in the input area of “series” becomes “BCC” by the input operation of the user who uses the terminal 10, the server 20 displays the input form in the information recorded in the database 41. An input form corresponding to information on the first product in which a part (first part) of the model number 1 is “BCC” may be used. Specifically, as shown in FIG. 14, for example, the server 20 changes the number of pull-down menus constituting the “series” input area to two according to the phrases “series 1” and “series 2”. Other input areas that continue to the right after the “Series” are: “Size”, “Bearing type”, “Number of bearings”, “Rail length”, “Material symbol”, “Preload”, “Accuracy”, “Symbol (1 ) ”,“ Symbol (2) ”,“ symbol (3) ”, and“ symbol (4) ”. As described above, the items of the input area constituting the input form of the first area 61 change according to a part of the first model number (for example, “series”). Based on the first model number recorded in the database 41, the server 20 responds to a combination pattern of other phrases that can be limited or specified by a phrase (for example, a character string) selected in the partial input area. You may make it update the input area | region of the other phrase which has not completed input. In addition, when performing such an update, even in the case of a phrase indicating a “series” other than “BBB” or “BCC”, the server 20 selects a model number corresponding to the selected phrase in another input area. The input area depends on the phrase. In FIG. 14, the reference numeral “61a” is used to indicate the difference from the input form displayed in the first area 61 shown in FIG. 13, but the input form shown in FIG. Area 61.
　また、サーバ２０は、一部の入力領域に対する入力内容により限定又は特定される他の入力領域に対する入力内容がある場合、当該他の入力内容において選択可能なフレーズを更新する処理又は当該他の入力内容におけるフレーズを確定する処理を行う。具体的には、例えば図１５に示すように、「サイズ」の入力領域で「１５」が選択された場合、サーバ２０は、「ベアリング形式」の入力領域で選択可能なフレーズ（文字）を「Ａ」、「Ｂ」、「Ｃ」、「Ｄ」にする。これは、データベース４１において、「シリーズ」が「ＢＢＢ」で、かつ、「サイズ」が「１５」である第１の型番が取り得る「ベアリング形式」が「Ａ」、「Ｂ」、「Ｃ」、「Ｄ」のいずれかであることによる。一方、例えば図１６に示すように、「サイズ」の入力領域で「２５」が選択された場合、サーバ２０は、「ベアリング形式」の入力領域で選択可能なフレーズ（文字）を「Ｅ」、「Ａ」、「Ｆ」、「Ｂ」、「Ｃ」、「Ｄ」にする。これは、データベース４１において、「シリーズ」が「ＢＢＢ」で、かつ、「サイズ」が「２５」である第１の型番が取り得る「ベアリング形式」が「Ｅ」、「Ａ」、「Ｆ」、「Ｂ」、「Ｃ」、「Ｄ」であることによる。このように、サーバ２０は、既に入力が完了しているフレーズにより限定される他の入力領域に対する入力内容がある場合、当該他の入力内容において選択可能なフレーズを更新する。また、例えば入力された「サイズ」に対するする「ベアリング形式」が一つしか存在しない場合等において、サーバ２０は、当該一つの「ベアリング形式」を自動的に確定させる処理を行ってもよい。この場合、係る「サイズ」が入力された時点で、「ベアリング形式」の入力領域に係る「サイズ」に対応する一つのフレーズが反映された状態で変更不可能な状態（グレーアウト）になる。無論、サーバ２０によるこれらの入力内容の限定又は確定は、「サイズ」と「ベアリング形式」との関係に限られない。サーバ２０は、他の入力領域についても、データベース４１により定められるフレーズ同士の相関に応じて同様の処理を行う。 In addition, when there is input content for another input area that is limited or specified by input contents for some input areas, the server 20 updates the selectable phrase in the other input contents or the other input Processing to determine the phrase in the content. Specifically, as shown in FIG. 15, for example, when “15” is selected in the “size” input area, the server 20 selects a phrase (character) that can be selected in the “bearing type” input area. Set to “A”, “B”, “C”, “D”. This is because, in the database 41, “Bearing type” that can be taken by the first model number “Series” is “BBB” and “Size” is “15” is “A”, “B”, “C”. , “D”. On the other hand, as shown in FIG. 16, for example, when “25” is selected in the “size” input area, the server 20 selects “E”, a phrase (character) that can be selected in the “bearing type” input area. Set to “A”, “F”, “B”, “C”, “D”. This is because, in the database 41, the “bearing types” that can be taken by the first model number in which “series” is “BBB” and “size” is “25” are “E”, “A”, “F”. , “B”, “C”, “D”. As described above, when there is an input content for another input area limited by a phrase that has already been input, the server 20 updates a selectable phrase in the other input content. Further, for example, when there is only one “bearing type” for the input “size”, the server 20 may perform processing for automatically determining the one “bearing type”. In this case, when such a “size” is input, a single phrase corresponding to the “size” related to the “bearing type” input area is reflected and the state cannot be changed (grayed out). Of course, the limitation or determination of these input contents by the server 20 is not limited to the relationship between “size” and “bearing type”. The server 20 performs the same processing for other input areas according to the correlation between phrases defined by the database 41.
　また、本実施形態では、複数の製造元のうちいずれかの製造元の製品を第１の製品として選択することができる。具体的には、例えば、端末１０の利用者は、第１エリア６１の情報に位置する「メーカ名」欄６６のプルダウンメニューを操作することで第１の製品の製造元である企業名を選択することができる。図１２等では「Ｂ社」が選択されている。本実施形態では、サーバ２０は、「メーカ名」欄６６のプルダウンメニューに対する入力操作に応じて、第１エリア６１における入力フォームを「メーカ名」欄６６に入力された企業が販売するいずれか一つの製品の型番に応じた入力フォームにする。 Further, in this embodiment, a product of any manufacturer among a plurality of manufacturers can be selected as the first product. Specifically, for example, the user of the terminal 10 selects the name of the company that is the manufacturer of the first product by operating the pull-down menu in the “maker name” column 66 located in the information of the first area 61. be able to. In FIG. 12, etc., “Company B” is selected. In the present embodiment, in response to an input operation on the pull-down menu in the “maker name” column 66, the server 20 sells any one of the input forms in the first area 61 sold by the company that is input in the “maker name” column 66. Make the input form according to the model number of one product.
　図１７は、第１エリア６１における入力内容と第２エリア６２における出力内容との関係の一例を示す図である。サーバ２０は、端末１０を介して入力された第１の型番を用いてデータベース４１から第２の製品に関する情報を抽出する。このように、サーバ２０は、抽出部４２として機能する。具体的には、サーバ２０は、例えば第１エリア６１に表示された入力フォームに対する入力内容から特定された第１の型番と対応付けられた第２の型番をデータベース４１から読み出して第２エリア６２に表示させる。本実施形態において、サーバ２０は、例えば図１７に示すように、第１エリア６１において入力が完了したフレーズに応じて、入力が完了した部分のみで特定することができる第２の型番の一部又は全部を第２エリア６２に反映する。無論、サーバ２０は、第１エリア６１に表示された入力フォームを構成する全ての入力領域に対する入力内容が確定するまで、第２エリア６２における表示内容を更新しなくてもよい。 FIG. 17 is a diagram illustrating an example of the relationship between the input content in the first area 61 and the output content in the second area 62. The server 20 extracts information related to the second product from the database 41 using the first model number input via the terminal 10. As described above, the server 20 functions as the extraction unit 42. Specifically, for example, the server 20 reads the second model number associated with the first model number specified from the input content for the input form displayed in the first area 61 from the database 41 and reads the second area 62. To display. In the present embodiment, for example, as shown in FIG. 17, the server 20 is a part of the second model number that can be specified only by the part where the input has been completed according to the phrase where the input has been completed in the first area 61. Alternatively, the whole is reflected in the second area 62. Of course, the server 20 may not update the display contents in the second area 62 until the input contents for all the input areas constituting the input form displayed in the first area 61 are confirmed.
　なお、入出力画面６０で「メーカ名」欄６６のプルダウンメニューを操作して別の企業名を再選択した時に、既に第１エリア６１の入力領域の一部又は全部が入力されており第２エリア６２等に第２の製品に関する情報が表示されている場合、サーバ２０は、「メーカ名」欄６６の再選択後の企業の製品であって、「メーカ名」欄６６の再選択前の製品に対応する製品を第１エリア６１に表示させる。具体的には、抽出部４２は、データベース４１を参照し、第２エリア６２等に表示されている第２の製品に関する情報（型番及びオプション）に対応する第１の製品を再選択後の企業の製品の中で逆引き検索する。逆引き検索の結果、該当する製品がある場合、抽出部４２は、該当する製品の中でより近い製品の型番を当該型番に対応する入力フォームと共に表示する。該当する製品がない場合、抽出部４２は、再選択後の企業が販売するいずれか一つの型番に応じた入力フォームを未入力状態で表示する。 When another pull-down menu in the “Manufacturer name” column 66 is operated on the input / output screen 60 to select another company name, a part or all of the input area of the first area 61 has already been input. When information about the second product is displayed in the area 62 or the like, the server 20 is a product of the company after the reselection in the “maker name” column 66 and before the reselection in the “maker name” column 66. A product corresponding to the product is displayed in the first area 61. Specifically, the extraction unit 42 refers to the database 41 and re-selects the first product corresponding to the information (model number and option) related to the second product displayed in the second area 62 and the like. Search backwards among products. When there is a corresponding product as a result of the reverse search, the extraction unit 42 displays the model number of the product closer to the corresponding product together with the input form corresponding to the model number. If there is no corresponding product, the extraction unit 42 displays an input form corresponding to any one model number sold by the reselected company in an unfilled state.
　図１８は、第２の製品に関する情報の出力例を示す図である。第１エリア６１の入力フォームに対する第１の型番の入力完了後、サーバ２０は、当該第１の型番と対応付けられた第２の製品に関する情報を表示する。具体的には、まず、サーバ２０は、図１８に示すように、入力された第１の型番と対応付けられた第２の型番をデータベース４１から読み出して第２エリア６２に表示させる。すなわち、サーバ２０は、第２の型番を端末１０の表示部１５に表示させることで、端末１０を利用するユーザーに第２の製品を選定に必要な情報を提供する。より具体的には、第１の型番を構成する全てのフレーズの入力が完了すると、サーバ２０は、データベース４１によって当該第１の型番と対応付けられている第２の型番のフレーズを一意に特定し、特定された第２の型番を第２エリア６２に表示させる。 FIG. 18 is a diagram illustrating an output example of information related to the second product. After completing the input of the first model number for the input form in the first area 61, the server 20 displays information related to the second product associated with the first model number. Specifically, first, as shown in FIG. 18, the server 20 reads out the second model number associated with the input first model number from the database 41 and displays it in the second area 62. In other words, the server 20 displays the second model number on the display unit 15 of the terminal 10 to provide information necessary for selecting the second product to the user who uses the terminal 10. More specifically, when the input of all the phrases constituting the first model number is completed, the server 20 uniquely identifies the phrase of the second model number associated with the first model number by the database 41. Then, the specified second model number is displayed in the second area 62.
　また、サーバ２０は、例えば図１８に示すように、第２エリア６２に表示された第２の型番が示す第２の製品に適用されているオプションを第３エリア６３に表示させる。ここで、第１の型番の入力完了に伴い第３エリア６３に表示されるオプションは、第１の型番により特定された第１の製品に対応するオプションである。第１の製品に対応するオプションとは、「第１の製品との対性能比を同等にすることを目的として選定されているオプション」をさす。すなわち、第１の製品に対応する別製品である「第２の製品」とは、第１の製品が採用され得る用途で第１の製品と同様に採用することができる製品をさす。「第２の製品」は、第２の製品の製造元が提供する製品のうち、オプションが適用されていない製品（標準品）でもありうるが、標準品の諸元では第１の製品との対性能比において無視することができない差異が生じることもありうる。係る標準品に第１の製品に対応するオプションを適用することで、製品を第１の製品に対応する製品、すなわち「第２の製品」にすることができる。第１の製品に対応するオプションは、第１の型番に応じてデータベース４１により一意に特定される（例えば、図６～図８参照）。 Further, for example, as shown in FIG. 18, the server 20 causes the third area 63 to display options applied to the second product indicated by the second model number displayed in the second area 62. Here, the option displayed in the third area 63 when the input of the first model number is completed is an option corresponding to the first product specified by the first model number. The option corresponding to the first product refers to “an option selected for the purpose of making the performance ratio with the first product equal”. That is, the “second product”, which is another product corresponding to the first product, refers to a product that can be used in the same manner as the first product in applications where the first product can be used. The “second product” may be a product (standard product) to which the option is not applied among products provided by the manufacturer of the second product, but the specification of the standard product is different from that of the first product. There can be non-negligible differences in performance ratios. By applying the option corresponding to the first product to the standard product, the product can be changed to the product corresponding to the first product, that is, the “second product”. The option corresponding to the first product is uniquely specified by the database 41 in accordance with the first model number (see, for example, FIGS. 6 to 8).
　なお、図１７、図１８等では、第２の型番は、第２エリア６２に設けられた複数のテキストボックスを用いて出力されているが、これは第２の型番の出力方法の一例であってこれに限られるものでなく、適宜変更可能である。また、図１８では、防塵仕様に係るオプション（ダブルシール）と、ベアリング材料に関するオプション（ステンレス鋼）とが表示されているが、これらは第１の製品に対応するオプションの一例であってこれに限られるものでなく、入力された第１の型番を置換する製品として抽出される第２の製品に応じた第１の製品に対応するオプションが適宜表示される。 In FIG. 17, FIG. 18, etc., the second model number is output using a plurality of text boxes provided in the second area 62. This is an example of the output method of the second model number. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and can be changed as appropriate. Also, in FIG. 18, an option related to the dust-proof specification (double seal) and an option related to the bearing material (stainless steel) are displayed, but these are examples of options corresponding to the first product. The option corresponding to the first product corresponding to the second product extracted as a product that replaces the input first model number is appropriately displayed.
　なお、上記でも述べたように、第２の製品は、第１の製品と完全に同一ではない。例えばリニアガイドの精度に関する基準は各社ごとに異なり得るし、表面処理についても仮に表面処理の呼称が同一であったとしても実際の組成等が異なることがあり得るからである。他のオプション（例えば図２４等参照）についても同様である。第２の製品の製造元（例えばＡ社）は、製品の加工拠点で「標準仕様の製品」に対して第１の製品に対応するオプションを適用するための加工などを行って第２の製品を第１の型番に対応する製品にする。 Note that, as described above, the second product is not completely identical to the first product. For example, the standard regarding the accuracy of the linear guide may be different for each company, and the actual composition or the like may be different for the surface treatment even if the name of the surface treatment is the same. The same applies to other options (see, for example, FIG. 24). The manufacturer of the second product (for example, Company A) performs processing for applying an option corresponding to the first product to the “standard specification product” at the processing base of the product to obtain the second product. The product corresponds to the first model number.
　図１９は、第２の製品に関する情報の出力の別例を示す図である。第１の型番によっては、サーバ２０は、入力された第１の型番に対応する第２の製品を提供することができないことを示す情報を出力する。具体例を挙げると、サーバ２０は、第１の型番により表された「精度」と「予圧」の組み合わせを第２の製品で実現することが想定されていない場合、図１９に示すように、第２の製品で第１の製品の精度及び予圧に対応する組み合わせに対応することができないことを示す情報（例えば、「製作対応範囲外です。」の文字列）を出力するようにしてもよい。「製作対応範囲外です。」の表示内容はあくまで一例であり、適宜変更可能である。また、この場合においても、サーバ２０は、精度及び予圧以外の面では第１の型番に対応する第２の製品を提供することができる旨を示す意味で、最低でも第２エリア６２を用いた第２の製品に関する情報の出力を行う。 FIG. 19 is a diagram showing another example of the output of information related to the second product. Depending on the first model number, the server 20 outputs information indicating that the second product corresponding to the input first model number cannot be provided. As a specific example, when it is not assumed that the combination of “accuracy” and “preload” represented by the first model number is realized in the second product, the server 20, as shown in FIG. Information indicating that the second product cannot cope with the combination corresponding to the accuracy and preload of the first product (for example, a character string “out of production range”) may be output. . The display content of “Out of production support range” is merely an example, and can be changed as appropriate. Also in this case, the server 20 uses the second area 62 at least in the sense that it can provide the second product corresponding to the first model number in terms other than accuracy and preload. Output information about the second product.
　サーバ２０は、第２の製品に関する情報として、第２の製品の寸法に関する情報を出力するようにしてもよい。その場合、具体的には、サーバ２０は、例えば図１２等に示す入出力画面６０において入力フォームの下方に「寸法確認」ボタン６７及び「諸元確認」ボタン６８を表示させる。「寸法確認」ボタン６７は、例えば第１の型番の入力完了後、入力された第１の型番により表される第１の製品を置換する第２の製品があり、第２エリア６２等を用いて第２の製品に関する情報が出力された場合に操作可能になる。端末１０を利用するユーザーにより「寸法確認」ボタン６７が操作されると、サーバ２０は、第２の製品が有するレール取付穴位置等の寸法を確認するための図示しない寸法確認画面を端末１０の表示部１５に表示させる。サーバ２０は、寸法確認画面においてレール取付穴位置等の寸法を変更入力可能としてもよい。この場合、サーバ２０は、寸法確認画面において入力されたレール取付穴位置の寸法を納入品仕様図データに反映する。 The server 20 may output information relating to the dimensions of the second product as information relating to the second product. In that case, specifically, the server 20 displays a “dimension confirmation” button 67 and a “specification confirmation” button 68 below the input form on the input / output screen 60 shown in FIG. The “dimension check” button 67 includes, for example, a second product that replaces the first product represented by the input first model number after completion of the input of the first model number, and uses the second area 62 and the like. When the information about the second product is output, the operation becomes possible. When the “dimension confirmation” button 67 is operated by the user using the terminal 10, the server 20 displays a dimension confirmation screen (not shown) for confirming the dimensions such as the rail mounting hole position of the second product. It is displayed on the display unit 15. The server 20 may be able to change and input dimensions such as rail mounting hole positions on the dimension confirmation screen. In this case, the server 20 reflects the dimension of the rail mounting hole position input on the dimension confirmation screen in the delivered product specification diagram data.
　「諸元確認」ボタン６８は、例えば第１の型番の入力完了後、入力された第１の型番により表される第１の製品を置換する第２の製品があり、第２エリア６２等を用いて第２の製品に関する情報が出力された場合に操作可能になる。なお、サーバ２０は、「寸法確認」ボタン６７が１回以上操作された後に「諸元確認」ボタン６８を操作可能とするようにしてもよい。端末１０を利用するユーザーにより「諸元確認」ボタン６８が操作されると、サーバ２０は、諸元確認画面７０を端末１０の表示部１５に表示させる。 “Specification confirmation” button 68 includes, for example, a second product that replaces the first product represented by the input first model number after completing the input of the first model number. It is possible to operate when information on the second product is output. The server 20 may be configured to allow the “specification confirmation” button 68 to be operable after the “dimension confirmation” button 67 is operated once or more. When the “specification confirmation” button 68 is operated by the user using the terminal 10, the server 20 displays the specification confirmation screen 70 on the display unit 15 of the terminal 10.
　図２０は、諸元確認画面７０の一例を示す図である。図２０は、第２の製品がリニアガイドの諸元確認画面７０であるが、あくまで一例であって、諸元確認画面７０の表示態様はこれに限られるものでない。サーバ２０は、抽出部４２により抽出された第１の製品に関する情報及び第２の製品に関する情報のうち寸法を含む数値比較可能な情報が並列する比較画面を表示させる。具体的には、サーバ２０は、例えば図２０に示すように、諸元確認画面７０において、第２の製品の寸法等が表示される行と、第１の製品の寸法等が表示される行とを所定方向（例えば縦方向）に並列させた表７１を端末１０の表示部１５に表示させる。サーバ２０は、表７１の出力により、縦方向に並列された第２の製品と第１の製品の数値比較可能な情報を確認可能な状態で提供する。このように、本実施形態の諸元確認画面７０は、比較画面として機能する。 FIG. 20 is a diagram showing an example of the item confirmation screen 70. In FIG. 20, the second product is the linear guide specification confirmation screen 70, but is merely an example, and the display form of the specification confirmation screen 70 is not limited to this. The server 20 displays a comparison screen in which numerically comparable information including dimensions among the information related to the first product and the information related to the second product extracted by the extraction unit 42 is displayed. Specifically, for example, as illustrated in FIG. 20, the server 20 displays, on the specification confirmation screen 70, a line on which the dimension of the second product is displayed and a line on which the dimension of the first product is displayed. Are displayed in parallel in a predetermined direction (for example, the vertical direction) on the display unit 15 of the terminal 10. The server 20 provides, in a state where it is possible to confirm the numerically comparable information of the second product and the first product arranged in parallel in the vertical direction by the output of Table 71. Thus, the specification confirmation screen 70 of this embodiment functions as a comparison screen.
　サーバ２０は、比較画面において、第１の製品に関する数値と第２の製品に関する数値とが同一である場合の表示態様と第１の製品に関する数値と第２の製品に関する数値とが異なる場合の表示態様とを異なる表示態様にする。具体的には、サーバ２０は、例えば図２０に示すように、第２の製品に関する数値と第１の製品に関する数値とが異なる数値になっている項目と、第２の製品に関する数値と第１の製品に関する数値とが同一の数値になっている項目とを区別可能な状態で出力する。より具体的には、サーバ２０は、異なる数値となっている項目の数値のうち、第２の製品に関する数値のセルのみ諸元確認画面７０の背景色（例えば白色等）と異なる色（例えば黄色等）で着色する。一方、サーバ２０は、他のセルを着色しない。このように、サーバ２０は、抽出部４２により抽出された情報に基づいて表示部１５に表示される情報の表示態様を制御する表示制御部４３として機能し、第１の製品の諸元と第２の製品の諸元との相違に関する情報を表示させる。第２の製品と第１の製品とで数値が異なる項目をより容易に把握することができる表示態様で出力する。なお、図２０では、着色されたセルにマスクパターンを施すことで図示を行っている。図２０では、セルの着色の有無により異なる諸元（数値）の表示態様を異ならせているが、これは表示態様を異ならせる方法の一例であってこれに限られるものでない。例えば、数値を示す文字の色、当該文字の太さ、当該文字の大きさ、当該文字に施された下線の有無等の少なくともいずれか一つにより表示態様を異ならせてもよいし、他の方法により表示態様を異ならせてもよい。 The server 20 displays, in the comparison screen, a display mode when the numerical value related to the first product and the numerical value related to the second product are the same, and a display when the numerical value related to the first product and the numerical value related to the second product are different. A different display mode is used. Specifically, for example, as illustrated in FIG. 20, the server 20 includes an item in which the numerical value related to the second product and the numerical value related to the first product are different, the numerical value related to the second product, and the first numerical value. The items with the same numerical value for the product are output in a distinguishable state. More specifically, among the numerical values of items having different numerical values, the server 20 has a color (for example, yellow) that is different from the background color (for example, white) of the specification confirmation screen 70 only for the numerical value cells related to the second product. Etc.) On the other hand, the server 20 does not color other cells. As described above, the server 20 functions as the display control unit 43 that controls the display mode of the information displayed on the display unit 15 based on the information extracted by the extraction unit 42, and the specifications and first specifications of the first product. Information on the difference between the two product specifications is displayed. An item is output in a display mode that allows the second product and the first product to have different numerical values more easily. In FIG. 20, illustration is performed by applying a mask pattern to the colored cells. In FIG. 20, the display mode of different specifications (numerical values) is made different depending on whether or not the cell is colored. However, this is an example of a method of making the display mode different and is not limited thereto. For example, the display mode may be different depending on at least one of the color of a character indicating a numerical value, the thickness of the character, the size of the character, the presence or absence of an underline applied to the character, The display mode may be varied depending on the method.
　また、サーバ２０は、比較画面において、第１の製品の諸元と第２の製品の諸元との相違に関する情報として機能する断り書きを表示させる。具体的には、例えば図２０に示す「なお、今回の選定にあたり、Ａ社の標準仕様としている箇所があります。」という前置きを以て、第２の製品の仕様が「第２の製品の製造元（この場合、Ａ社）」の標準仕様に基づいており、第１の製品の仕様と異なる可能性があることを示している。また、サーバ２０は、「また、ご注意いただきたいことがあります。」の件の後に記載された文章（箇条書き）を以て第２の製品の仕様を示している。図２０に示す例では、「・表面処理は、ふっ化低進クロムメッキを選定しています。」、「・即納品にも対応できるランダムマッチング品用の精度等級を適用しています。」、「即納品にも対応できるランダムマッチング品用の予圧区分を適用しています。」の文章が該当する。これらの文章の一部又は全部は静的出力（固定の文章）であってもよいし、抽出された第２の製品に応じて変更される動的出力（製品に応じた文章）であってもよい。動的出力に該当する文章は、例えば比較画面７０を出力するのに用いられるプログラム（スクリプト等）に組み込まれた条件式によって第２の製品に応じて選択されるものであってもよいし、文章と第２の製品とをデータベース４１等のＤＢにより対応付けるようにしてもよい。 In addition, the server 20 displays a remark functioning as information on the difference between the specifications of the first product and the specifications of the second product on the comparison screen. Specifically, for example, as shown in FIG. 20, the specification of the second product is “the manufacturer of the second product (this is a part of the standard specification of Company A in this selection”). In this case, it is based on the standard specification of “Company A”) and may be different from the specification of the first product. In addition, the server 20 indicates the specifications of the second product with the text (itemized list) described after the item “There are things to note”. In the example shown in Fig. 20, "Surface treatment is selected from low fluorination chrome plating." "Accuracy grade for random matching products that can handle immediate delivery is applied." This applies to the text “Applying preload classification for random matching products that can also be delivered immediately”. Some or all of these sentences may be static output (fixed sentences) or dynamic output (sentences according to the product) changed according to the extracted second product. Also good. The sentence corresponding to the dynamic output may be selected according to the second product by a conditional expression incorporated in a program (script or the like) used to output the comparison screen 70, for example. The text and the second product may be associated by a DB such as the database 41.
　サーバ２０は、例えば図２０に示すように、比較画面において第２の製品の寸法を確認するための標準図面７２を表示するようにしてもよい。この場合、サーバ２０は、記憶部２１から標準図面データ３２を読み出して諸元確認画面７０の表示態様に標準図面７２を含める。標準図面７２は、例えば表７１の下方に表示され、表７１で用いられている寸法の符号を用いた寸法図として機能する。具体的には、例えば図２０に示す表７１における「組立品寸法」には、「Ｈ」、「Ｅ」「Ｗ２」の符号が付されている。係る符号の各々は、標準図面７２における「リニアガイドの高さ寸法（Ｈ）」、「レール下面からベアリング下面までの高さ寸法（Ｅ）」、「レール基準側面とベアリング基準側面との距離（Ｗ２）」であり、これらの符号が標準図面７２に付されている。表７１及び標準図面７２に含まれる他の符号についても、同様である。なお、本実施形態では、図２０において下付き文字（例えばＷ２の「２」等）で表示されている文字を、データベース４１において下付き文字でない状態で示している。これは、データベース４１の項目に下付き文字が採用されないことを示しているに過ぎず、データベース４１に記録された項目と図２０における表７１の項目との対応関係の特定に支障はない。 For example, as shown in FIG. 20, the server 20 may display a standard drawing 72 for confirming the dimensions of the second product on the comparison screen. In this case, the server 20 reads the standard drawing data 32 from the storage unit 21 and includes the standard drawing 72 in the display mode of the specification confirmation screen 70. The standard drawing 72 is displayed below the table 71, for example, and functions as a dimensional drawing using the dimensional symbols used in the table 71. Specifically, for example, “H”, “E”, and “W 2 ” are assigned to “assembly dimensions” in Table 71 shown in FIG. Each of these symbols is “the height dimension (H) of the linear guide”, “the height dimension (E) from the rail bottom surface to the bearing bottom surface”, “the distance between the rail reference side surface and the bearing reference side surface ( W 2 ) ”, and these symbols are attached to the standard drawing 72. The same applies to other symbols included in Table 71 and the standard drawing 72. In the present embodiment, and it shows a character displayed in subscript (e.g., W 2 "2", etc.), while not subscript in the database 41 in FIG. 20. This merely indicates that subscripts are not adopted for the items in the database 41, and there is no problem in identifying the correspondence between the items recorded in the database 41 and the items in Table 71 in FIG.
　なお、本実施形態における標準図面７２は、第２の製品の寸法を確認するための参考図である。すなわち、標準図面７２は、第２の製品の寸法に関する理解を助けることを目的にした図であり、第２の製品の厳密な形状を示すためのものでない。本実施形態の標準図面７２は、既に図面の表示態様が確定されたデータ（標準図面データ３２）を読み出すことで表示される。このため、標準図面７２は、第３エリア６３に表示されるオプションの具体的な形態を必ずしも反映していない。言い換えれば、標準図面７２は、各製品カテゴリ（例えば、「シリーズ」別のカテゴリや「ベアリング形式」別のカテゴリ）の代表的な図面であり、必ずしも第２の型番に該当する第２の製品に完全合致する形態を示す図面でない。 In addition, the standard drawing 72 in this embodiment is a reference diagram for confirming the dimensions of the second product. That is, the standard drawing 72 is a view intended to help understanding the dimensions of the second product and is not intended to show the exact shape of the second product. The standard drawing 72 of the present embodiment is displayed by reading data (standard drawing data 32) whose drawing display mode has already been determined. For this reason, the standard drawing 72 does not necessarily reflect a specific form of options displayed in the third area 63. In other words, the standard drawing 72 is a representative drawing of each product category (for example, a category by “series” or a category by “bearing type”), and is not necessarily a second product corresponding to the second model number. It is not a drawing showing a completely matching form.
　また、本実施形態の標準図面７２は、表７１に含まれない寸法に関する符号も含んでいる。これにより、諸元確認画面７０から得られる情報以外の情報（さらに詳しい寸法等）を問い合わせる際に標準図面７２の符号を用いて問い合わせを行うことができる。 In addition, the standard drawing 72 of the present embodiment also includes symbols related to dimensions that are not included in Table 71. Thereby, when inquiring information other than the information obtained from the specification confirmation screen 70 (more detailed dimensions and the like), it is possible to make an inquiry using the codes of the standard drawing 72.
　サーバ２０は、第２の製品が即納可能な製品であるか否かを示す情報を出力してもよい。具体的には、サーバ２０は、例えば第二の型番及び番号（「防塵部品番号」など）を用いた条件式で即納可能であるか否かについて判定する。即納不可能である場合、サーバ２０は、諸元確認画面７０において「選択した製品は即納品としては対応できませんが、Ａ社で製作可能です」のような文章を表示させるようにしてもよい。一方、「即納可能」である第２の製品については、係る文章の表示を行わないようにしてもよいし、「即納可能です」のように明確に表示するようにしてもよい。即納可能であるか否かについては、データベース４１において第２の製品の型番を構成するデータと「即納可能であるか否か」を示すデータとを対応付けるようにしてもよい。 The server 20 may output information indicating whether or not the second product is a product that can be delivered immediately. Specifically, the server 20 determines whether or not immediate delivery is possible by a conditional expression using, for example, the second model number and number (such as “dust-proof part number”). When the immediate delivery is impossible, the server 20 may display a sentence such as “The selected product cannot be handled as an immediate delivery, but can be manufactured by Company A” on the specification confirmation screen 70. On the other hand, the second product that is “immediately available” may not be displayed, or may be clearly displayed as “immediately available”. Regarding whether or not immediate delivery is possible, data constituting the model number of the second product in the database 41 may be associated with data indicating whether or not immediate delivery is possible.
　図２１は、組立寸法精度確認画面７５の一例を示す図である。製品置換支援システム１は、第２の製品の組立寸法精度を確認可能にするための仕組みを有していてもよい。具体的には、サーバ２０は、例えば図２０に示すように、諸元確認画面７０に「組立寸法精度」ボタン７３を表示させるようにしてもよい。端末１０を利用するユーザーにより「組立寸法精度」ボタン７３が操作されると、サーバ２０は、例えば図２１に示すような組立寸法精度確認画面７５を表示させる。組立寸法精度確認画面７５は、例えば第２の製品において寸法の許容値と相互差（精度等級）とが対応付けられた表の形式で第２の製品の組立寸法精度に関する情報を提供する。図２１は、組立寸法精度確認画面７５が独立ウィンドウで表示された場合の例を示しているが、組立寸法精度を確認可能にするための具体的な表示態様（項目を含む）は適宜変更可能である。 FIG. 21 is a diagram showing an example of the assembly dimension accuracy confirmation screen 75. As shown in FIG. The product replacement support system 1 may have a mechanism for enabling confirmation of the assembly dimensional accuracy of the second product. Specifically, the server 20 may display an “assembly dimension accuracy” button 73 on the specification confirmation screen 70, for example, as shown in FIG. When the “assembly dimension accuracy” button 73 is operated by the user using the terminal 10, the server 20 displays an assembly dimension accuracy confirmation screen 75 as shown in FIG. 21, for example. The assembly dimension accuracy confirmation screen 75 provides information on the assembly dimension accuracy of the second product, for example, in the form of a table in which the allowable values of dimensions and the mutual difference (accuracy grade) are associated with each other. FIG. 21 shows an example in which the assembly dimension accuracy confirmation screen 75 is displayed in an independent window, but specific display modes (including items) for enabling confirmation of assembly dimension accuracy can be changed as appropriate. It is.
　図２２は、見積条件入力画面８０の一例を示す図である。製品置換支援システム１は、第２の製品の見積を可能にするための仕組みを有していてもよい。具体的には、サーバ２０は、例えば見積の要求を行うためのボタン（本実施形態では、「仕様確定」ボタン７４）を諸元確認画面７０に表示させるようにしてもよい。端末１０を利用するユーザーにより当該ボタンが操作されると、サーバ２０は、例えば図２２に示すような見積条件入力画面８０を表示させる。端末１０を利用するユーザーは、図２２に示す見積条件入力画面８０から第２の製品の購入に係る見積を要求することができる。見積条件入力画面８０は、例えば第２の型番の表示エリア８１、見積要求に関する各種の指定事項を入力するための入力エリア９０等を有する。入力エリア９０は、例えば、製品の送り先を示す送り先コード表示エリア８２、見積時に購入が想定される第２の製品の購入数を入力するための数量指定テキストボックス９１、第２の製品の仕様を示す情報の要求を見積要求と同時に行うか否かを入力するための仕様書要求チェックボックス９２、見積要求を行った第２の製品を示す図面（納入品仕様図）の要求を見積要求と同時に行うか否かを入力するための納入品仕様図要求チェックボックス９３ａ，９３ｂ、納入品仕様図のＣＡＤデータの要求を見積要求と同時に行うか否かを入力するためのＣＡＤデータ要求チェックボックス９４等、各種の事項に関する入力欄及び見積要求の内容を確定させる確定ボタン（本実施形態では、「今すぐ見積」ボタン８３）等を有する。端末１０を利用するユーザーにより確定ボタンが操作されると、サーバ２０は、抽出部４２による抽出結果に基づいた第２の製品の受注に用いられる製品仕様情報を出力する。このように、サーバ２０は、出力部４４として機能する。図２２では、納入品仕様図要求チェックボックスにより要求可能な図面の言語として「日本語」及び「英語」が設けられており、各々に対応する納入品仕様図要求チェックボックス９３ａ，９３ｂが設けられている。納入品仕様図要求チェックボックス９３ａ，９３ｂの各々による要求は、要求に応じて出力される納入品仕様図で用いられる言語が日本語であるか英語であるかの点を除いて同一である。本実施形態では、納入品仕様図要求チェックボックス９３ａ，９３ｂを区別する必要がない場合、納入品仕様図要求チェックボックス９３と記載する。 FIG. 22 is a diagram showing an example of the estimate condition input screen 80. As shown in FIG. The product replacement support system 1 may have a mechanism for enabling estimation of the second product. Specifically, the server 20 may display, for example, a button for requesting an estimate (in this embodiment, a “specification confirmation” button 74) on the specification confirmation screen 70. When the user operates the button, the server 20 displays an estimation condition input screen 80 as shown in FIG. 22, for example. A user who uses the terminal 10 can request an estimate related to the purchase of the second product from the estimate condition input screen 80 shown in FIG. The estimation condition input screen 80 includes, for example, a display area 81 for the second model number, an input area 90 for inputting various designation items related to the estimation request, and the like. The input area 90 includes, for example, a destination code display area 82 indicating the destination of the product, a quantity designation text box 91 for inputting the number of purchases of the second product expected to be purchased at the time of estimation, and the specifications of the second product. A specification request check box 92 for inputting whether or not a request for information to be indicated is made at the same time as an estimate request, and a request for a drawing (delivery product specification diagram) showing a second product for which an estimate request has been made Delivery specification drawing request check boxes 93a and 93b for inputting whether to perform or not, CAD data request check box 94 for inputting whether or not to request the CAD data of the delivery specification drawing simultaneously with the request for quotation, etc. In addition, there are an input field regarding various items, a confirmation button (in this embodiment, an “estimate now” button 83) for confirming the contents of the request for quotation, and the like. When the confirmation button is operated by the user using the terminal 10, the server 20 outputs product specification information used for receiving an order for the second product based on the extraction result by the extraction unit 42. As described above, the server 20 functions as the output unit 44. In FIG. 22, “Japanese” and “English” are provided as languages of drawings that can be requested by the delivery specification drawing request check box, and delivery specification drawing request check boxes 93a and 93b corresponding to each are provided. ing. Requests by each of the delivery specification drawing request check boxes 93a and 93b are the same except that the language used in the delivery specification drawing output in response to the request is Japanese or English. In the present embodiment, when there is no need to distinguish between the delivered product specification drawing request check boxes 93a and 93b, they are described as delivered product specification drawing request check boxes 93.
　サーバ２０は、例えば見積条件入力画面８０にて「今すぐ見積」ボタン８３が操作された後、見積回答画面（図３７参照）を表示させる。見積回答画面の表示内容は、例えば見積条件入力画面８０にて見積を要求された第２の製品の提供に係る見積価格、出荷予定日等の情報を含む。ここで、仕様書要求チェックボックス９２がチェックされている場合、サーバ２０は、見積回答画面の表示とともに製品仕様情報をポップアップ画面で表示させる。 The server 20 displays an estimate response screen (see FIG. 37) after the “immediate estimate” button 83 is operated on the estimate condition input screen 80, for example. The display content of the estimate response screen includes information such as an estimated price and a scheduled shipping date related to the provision of the second product requested to be quoted on the estimate condition input screen 80, for example. Here, if the specification request check box 92 is checked, the server 20 displays the product specification information on a pop-up screen along with the display of the estimate response screen.
　図２３は、製品仕様情報の出力例を示す図である。図２３に示すように、製品仕様情報は、例えば製品仕様情報の出力が行われた日付を示す「日付」欄、製品仕様情報の要求を行ったユーザーを示す「ユーザーＩＤ」欄、第２の型番を示す「呼び番号」欄、第１の型番を示す「参考にした名番」欄、見積価格を示す「標準価格」欄、製品仕様情報の出力が行われた時点で予定される納期を示す「参考納期」欄等を含む。このように、サーバ２０は、第１の型番を製品仕様情報に含める。 FIG. 23 is a diagram showing an output example of product specification information. As shown in FIG. 23, the product specification information includes, for example, a “date” column indicating the date when the product specification information was output, a “user ID” column indicating the user who requested the product specification information, “Nominal number” field indicating the model number, “Reference name number” field indicating the first model number, “Standard price” field indicating the estimated price, and delivery date scheduled when the product specification information is output It includes the “Reference delivery date” column shown. Thus, the server 20 includes the first model number in the product specification information.
　また、端末１０を利用するユーザーにより仕様書要求チェックボックス９２にチェックが入れられた状態で確定ボタンが操作されると、サーバ２０は、製品仕様情報を出力する。具体的には、サーバ２０は、例えば図２３に示すように、仕様情報を含む製品仕様情報を出力する。図２３に示す例の場合、仕様情報は、製品仕様情報の「参考納期」欄よりも下側に記載された「シリーズ」等の各種の事項が示す情報である。ここで、仕様情報の「ベアリング個数」欄よりも下側に記載された「精度等級」欄から「材料」欄までの事項は、第２の製品のオプションに関するものも含んだ事項である。例えば、図２３に示す仕様情報のうち「表面処理」欄及び「防塵」欄に記載されている仕様は、入出力画面６０で第３エリア６３に表示されたオプションに対応している。このように、仕様情報は、オプションに関する情報を含む。図２３に示す仕様情報は、図１８に示す入出力画面６０で出力された第２の製品に関する情報及びオプションに関する情報に対応する仕様情報である。仕様情報の記載事項及び出力フォーマットは、図２３に示す例に限られず、適宜変更可能である。 Further, when the user who uses the terminal 10 operates the confirm button while the specification request check box 92 is checked, the server 20 outputs product specification information. Specifically, the server 20 outputs product specification information including specification information, for example, as shown in FIG. In the example shown in FIG. 23, the specification information is information indicated by various items such as “series” described below the “reference delivery date” column of the product specification information. Here, the items from the “accuracy grade” column to the “material” column described below the “number of bearings” column of the specification information include items related to options of the second product. For example, the specifications described in the “Surface Treatment” column and the “Dustproof” column in the specification information shown in FIG. 23 correspond to the options displayed in the third area 63 on the input / output screen 60. Thus, the specification information includes information regarding options. The specification information shown in FIG. 23 is specification information corresponding to the information related to the second product and the information related to options output on the input / output screen 60 shown in FIG. The description items and output format of the specification information are not limited to the example shown in FIG. 23, and can be changed as appropriate.
　また、端末１０を利用するユーザーにより納入品仕様図要求チェックボックス９３にチェックが入れられた状態で確定ボタンが操作されると、サーバ２０は、オプションが適用された第２の製品の納入品仕様図データを生成して出力する。具体的には、ＣＡＤエンジンが第２の製品に関する情報（例えば第２の型番等）に対応するデータを用いてＣＡＤデータを生成すると共に、当該ＣＡＤデータを図面データ（例えばビットマップ画像データ等の二次元画像データ）に変換して出力する。ここで、ＣＡＤデータ及び図面データにより表される第２の製品の図面には、見積要求が行われた第２の製品に適用されたオプションが反映されている。例えば、後述する潤滑ユニットのようにオプションの適用の有無に応じて製品の外形及び寸法が変化するようなオプションがある場合、ＣＡＤデータ及び図面データにより表される第２の製品の図面には、係るオプションの有無に応じた外形及び寸法の変化が反映されている。このように、サーバ２０は、第２の製品にオプションが適用されている場合には、オプションが適用された第２の製品の納入品仕様図データを生成する図面生成部４５として機能する。 When the user who uses the terminal 10 operates the confirm button while the delivery specification drawing request check box 93 is checked, the server 20 supplies the delivery specification of the second product to which the option is applied. Generate and output figure data. Specifically, the CAD engine generates CAD data using data corresponding to the information related to the second product (for example, the second model number), and the CAD data is converted into drawing data (for example, bitmap image data or the like). 2D image data) and output. Here, in the drawing of the second product represented by the CAD data and the drawing data, the options applied to the second product for which the request for quotation has been made are reflected. For example, when there is an option that changes the external shape and dimensions of the product depending on whether the option is applied, such as a lubrication unit described later, the drawing of the second product represented by the CAD data and the drawing data includes: Changes in the external shape and dimensions according to the presence or absence of such options are reflected. As described above, when the option is applied to the second product, the server 20 functions as the drawing generation unit 45 that generates the delivery specification drawing data of the second product to which the option is applied.
　また、端末１０を利用するユーザーによりＣＡＤデータ要求チェックボックス９４にチェックが入れられた状態で確定ボタンが操作されると、サーバ２０は、オプションが適用された第２の製品の納入品仕様図データの生成時に生成されたＣＡＤデータを製品仕様情報の出力と共に出力する。 Further, when the user who uses the terminal 10 operates the confirm button while the CAD data request check box 94 is checked, the server 20 sends the delivery specification diagram data of the second product to which the option is applied. The CAD data generated at the time of generating is output together with the output of product specification information.
　サーバ２０は、納入品仕様図データ等の各種のデータを所定の方法でユーザーに送る。具体的には、サーバ２０は、例えば電子メールに納入品仕様図データ等の各種のデータを添付して見積要求を行ったユーザーに送信する。送信先である見積要求を行ったユーザーに関する情報（「ユーザーＩＤ」及びメールアドレス等）は、当該ユーザーが製品置換支援システム１へのログインを完了した時点で特定可能になっている。 The server 20 sends various data such as delivered product specification diagram data to the user by a predetermined method. Specifically, the server 20 attaches various data such as delivered product specification diagram data to an e-mail, for example, and transmits it to the user who made the estimate request. Information (“user ID”, e-mail address, etc.) relating to the user who made the estimate request as the transmission destination can be specified when the user completes the login to the product replacement support system 1.
　見積要求を行うことが可能な製品は、必ずしも第１の製品に対応する第２の製品に限られない。具体的には、サーバ２０は、例えば入出力画面６０の第３エリア６３にオプションの設定に関する入力のためのボタン（本実施形態では「オプション」ボタン）を表示させるようにしてもよい。端末１０を利用するユーザーにより当該ボタンが操作されると、サーバ２０は、第２の製品に適用されるオプションの追加、変更又は削除が可能なオプション設定画面１００を端末１０の表示部１５に表示させる。 The product for which an estimate request can be made is not necessarily limited to the second product corresponding to the first product. Specifically, the server 20 may display, for example, a button (an “option” button in the present embodiment) for input regarding option setting in the third area 63 of the input / output screen 60. When the button is operated by a user who uses the terminal 10, the server 20 displays an option setting screen 100 on the display unit 15 of the terminal 10 in which an option applied to the second product can be added, changed, or deleted. Let
　図２４は、オプション設定画面１００の一例を示す図である。図２４に示すオプション設定画面１００は、リニアガイド製品のオプションの追加、変更又は削除に係る画面であり、「精度」、「予圧」、「材料」、「表面処理」、「潤滑ユニット」、「防塵」、「取付穴用キャップ」の各々の項目に関するオプションを指定することができる。また、「表面処理」については「レールのみ」を指定することができる。「レールのみ」のチェックがない場合、例えばベアリング及びレールの両方に表面処理が適用され、「レールのみ」のチェックがある場合、レールのみに表面処理が適用される。オプション設定画面１００で指定可能なオプションは、製品に応じて適宜変更されてよい。 FIG. 24 is a diagram illustrating an example of the option setting screen 100. An option setting screen 100 shown in FIG. 24 is a screen related to addition, change or deletion of options of the linear guide product, and includes “accuracy”, “preload”, “material”, “surface treatment”, “lubrication unit”, “ Options for each item of “Dustproof” and “Cap for mounting hole” can be specified. For “surface treatment”, “rail only” can be designated. When there is no “rail only” check, for example, surface treatment is applied to both the bearing and the rail, and when there is a “rail only” check, the surface treatment is applied only to the rail. Options that can be specified on the option setting screen 100 may be changed as appropriate according to the product.
　サーバ２０は、オプション設定画面１００に対する入力により第２の製品に適用されるオプションが第１の製品に対応するオプションでなくなった場合に第１の型番を製品仕様情報に含めない。具体的には、オプション設定画面１００に対する入力により第１の製品に対応するオプションとして第２の製品に適用されていたオプションの一部又は全部が変更あるいは削除された場合又は第１の製品に対応するオプション以外のオプションが追加された場合に当該第２の製品について見積要求が行われたとき、サーバ２０は、上記の製品仕様情報に含まれる各種の情報から第１の型番を示す「参考にした名番」欄を削除した状態で製品仕様情報を出力する。 The server 20 does not include the first model number in the product specification information when the option applied to the second product is no longer the option corresponding to the first product by the input to the option setting screen 100. Specifically, when a part or all of the options applied to the second product as an option corresponding to the first product is changed or deleted by an input to the option setting screen 100, or the first product is supported. When an option other than the option to be added is added and an estimate request is made for the second product, the server 20 indicates the first model number from various information included in the product specification information. The product specification information is output with the name number field deleted.
　図２５、図２６は、製品置換支援システム１の処理の流れの一例を示すチャートである。まず、端末１０からサーバ２０に対して製品置換支援システム１へのログイン要求が行われると（ステップＳ１）、サーバ２０は、端末１０の表示部１５態様を制御する表示制御部４３として機能し、図示しないログイン画面を表示部１５に表示させるための出力を行う（ステップＳ２）。具体的には、表示制御部４３は、例えばウェブブラウザを介して行われた端末１０からのアクセスに対して、ウェブブラウザでログイン画面を表示するためのデータを端末１０に送信出力する。以降、表示制御部４３として機能するサーバ２０が端末１０の表示部１５の表示内容を制御する処理においては、同様の仕組みによるデータの送信出力が行われているものとする。 25 and 26 are charts showing an example of the processing flow of the product replacement support system 1. First, when a login request to the product replacement support system 1 is made from the terminal 10 to the server 20 (step S1), the server 20 functions as the display control unit 43 that controls the display unit 15 aspect of the terminal 10, An output for displaying a login screen (not shown) on the display unit 15 is performed (step S2). Specifically, for example, in response to access from the terminal 10 performed via a web browser, the display control unit 43 transmits and outputs data for displaying a login screen on the web browser to the terminal 10. Hereinafter, in the process in which the server 20 functioning as the display control unit 43 controls the display content of the display unit 15 of the terminal 10, it is assumed that data transmission output is performed by the same mechanism.
　端末１０でログインに関する情報の入力（例えばユーザーＩＤ及びパスワードの入力等）が行われると（ステップＳ３）、サーバ２０は認証処理を行う（ステップＳ４）。認証処理の結果、ユーザーのログインの正当性が確認された場合、表示制御部４３は、入出力画面６０（図１２等参照）を表示部１５に表示させるための出力を行う（ステップＳ５）。ここで、表示制御部４３は、例えば入出力画面６０の第１エリア６１において、第１の型番を構成する複数のフレーズの各々を個別に入力するための複数の入力領域により構成される入力フォームを表示部１５に表示させる。 When information related to login (for example, input of a user ID and a password) is performed on the terminal 10 (step S3), the server 20 performs an authentication process (step S4). As a result of the authentication processing, when the validity of the user login is confirmed, the display control unit 43 performs output for displaying the input / output screen 60 (see FIG. 12 and the like) on the display unit 15 (step S5). Here, the display control unit 43, for example, in the first area 61 of the input / output screen 60, is an input form configured by a plurality of input areas for individually inputting a plurality of phrases constituting the first model number. Is displayed on the display unit 15.
　なお、認証処理の結果、ユーザーのログインの正当性が確認されなかった場合、サーバ２０はその旨を通知する等の所定のエラー処理を行う。認証処理の具体的な処理内容は一般的なものであるので詳細を割愛する。図２５、図２６に示すフローチャートでは、ユーザーのログインの正当性が確認された場合（ログイン成功時）の流れについてのみ記載している。 Note that, as a result of the authentication process, if the validity of the user login is not confirmed, the server 20 performs a predetermined error process such as notifying that effect. Since the specific processing content of the authentication processing is general, the details are omitted. In the flowcharts shown in FIGS. 25 and 26, only the flow when the user's login validity is confirmed (when the login is successful) is described.
　端末１０から「メーカ名」欄６６の入力や第１の型番の一部の入力があった場合（ステップＳ６）、サーバ２０は、入力内容に応じた入力フォームの更新を行う（ステップＳ７）。具体的には、表示制御部４３は、入力フォームの複数のフレーズのうち入力が完了した一部のフレーズにより限定又は特定可能な他のフレーズの組み合わせパターンに応じて入力が完了していない他のフレーズの入力領域を更新する。ステップＳ６及びステップＳ７の処理は、端末１０で第１の型番の入力が完了するまで継続される（ステップＳ８；Ｎｏ）。第１の型番の入力が完了すると（ステップＳ８；Ｙｅｓ）、サーバ２０は抽出部４２として機能し、端末１０を介して入力された第１の型番を用いてデータベース４１から少なくとも第２の製品に関する情報を抽出する（ステップＳ９）。抽出部４２は、第２の型番及び第２の製品に適用されるオプション等を含む第２の製品に関する情報をデータベース４１から読み出す。また、抽出部４２は、比較画面における並列表示のために用いられる第１の製品に関する情報（寸法等）をデータベース４１から読み出す。比較画面が省略される場合、第１の製品に関する情報の抽出は省略される。 When there is an input in the “maker name” column 66 or a part of the first model number from the terminal 10 (step S6), the server 20 updates the input form according to the input content (step S7). Specifically, the display control unit 43 is not able to input other words that have not been input in accordance with a combination pattern of other phrases that can be limited or specified by some of the phrases that have been input among the plurality of phrases in the input form. Update the phrase input area. The process of step S6 and step S7 is continued until the input of the first model number is completed at the terminal 10 (step S8; No). When the input of the first model number is completed (step S8; Yes), the server 20 functions as the extraction unit 42 and uses the first model number input via the terminal 10 to at least the second product from the database 41. Information is extracted (step S9). The extraction unit 42 reads out information related to the second product including the second model number and options applied to the second product from the database 41. In addition, the extraction unit 42 reads information (such as dimensions) related to the first product used for parallel display on the comparison screen from the database 41. When the comparison screen is omitted, extraction of information regarding the first product is omitted.
　表示制御部４３は、抽出部４２により抽出された情報に基づいて表示部１５に表示される情報の表示態様を制御する。具体的には、表示制御部４３は、第２の型番を入出力画面６０の第２エリア６２に表示させるための出力を行う（ステップＳ１０）。また、表示制御部４３は、オプションがある場合（ステップＳ１１；Ｙｅｓ）、オプションを入出力画面６０の第３エリア６３に表示させるための出力を行う（ステップＳ１２）。なお、オプションがない場合（ステップＳ１１；Ｎｏ）、ステップＳ１２の処理は省略される。 The display control unit 43 controls the display mode of information displayed on the display unit 15 based on the information extracted by the extraction unit 42. Specifically, the display control unit 43 performs an output for displaying the second model number in the second area 62 of the input / output screen 60 (step S10). In addition, when there is an option (step S11; Yes), the display control unit 43 performs output for displaying the option in the third area 63 of the input / output screen 60 (step S12). If there is no option (step S11; No), the process of step S12 is omitted.
　端末１０から比較画面の表示に関する要求（例えば「諸元確認」ボタン６８の操作）が行われると（ステップＳ１３）、表示制御部４３は、抽出部４２により抽出された第１の製品に関する情報及び第２の製品に関する情報のうち寸法を含む数値比較可能な情報が並列する比較画面を表示させるための出力を行う（ステップＳ１４）。ここで、表示制御部４３は、比較画面において、第１の製品に関する数値と第２の製品に関する数値とが同一である場合の表示態様と第１の製品に関する数値と第２の製品に関する数値とが異なる場合の表示態様とを異なる表示態様にする。また、表示制御部４３は、比較画面において標準図面７２を表示させる（ステップＳ１５）。具体的には、表示制御部４３は、例えば諸元確認画面７０（図２０参照）を表示させる。 When a request for display of a comparison screen (for example, operation of the “specification confirmation” button 68) is made from the terminal 10 (step S13), the display control unit 43 includes information on the first product extracted by the extraction unit 42, and An output for displaying a comparison screen on which numerically comparable information including dimensions among the information about the second product is displayed is performed (step S14). Here, the display control unit 43 displays, in the comparison screen, the display mode when the numerical value related to the first product and the numerical value related to the second product are the same, the numerical value related to the first product, and the numerical value related to the second product. Different display modes are used for different display modes. In addition, the display control unit 43 displays the standard drawing 72 on the comparison screen (step S15). Specifically, the display control unit 43 displays, for example, a specification confirmation screen 70 (see FIG. 20).
　端末１０からオプションの設定に関する要求（例えば「オプション」ボタンの操作）があった場合（ステップＳ１６；Ｙｅｓ）、表示制御部４３は、第２の製品に適用されるオプションの追加、変更又は削除が可能なオプション設定画面１００を表示部１５に表示させるための出力を行う（ステップＳ１７）。オプションの設定に関する要求がない場合（ステップＳ１６；Ｎｏ）、ステップＳ１７～ステップＳ１９の処理は省略される。端末１０からオプションの追加、変更又は削除が行われると（ステップＳ１８；Ｙｅｓ）、表示制御部４３は、オプションの追加、変更又は削除の具体的内容に応じて、第２の製品に適用されるオプションの情報を更新すると共に、第３エリア６３に表示されているオプションの表示を更新する（ステップＳ１９）。端末１０からオプションの追加、変更又は削除がない場合（ステップＳ１８；Ｎｏ）、ステップＳ１９の処理は省略される。なお、後述する図３３に示すポップアップ画面１２２による通知に係る処理として、表示制御部４３は、ステップＳ１８で追加、変更又は削除されたオプションの選択が正しいか否か判定してもよい（ステップＳ３１）。この場合、オプションの選択が正しいとき（ステップＳ３１；Ｙｅｓ）、表示制御部４３は、ステップＳ１９の処理に移行する。また、オプションの選択が正しくないとき（ステップＳ３１；Ｙｅｓ）、表示制御部４３は、オプションの選択が不正確である通知を表示部１５に表示させるための出力を行う（ステップＳ３２）。ステップＳ３２の出力により表示される通知は、例えば、図３３に示すポップアップ画面１２２による通知である。ステップＳ３２の処理後、製品置換支援システム１は、ステップＳ１７に戻る。 When there is a request for setting an option from the terminal 10 (for example, operation of an “option” button) (step S16; Yes), the display control unit 43 adds, changes, or deletes an option applied to the second product. Output for displaying the possible option setting screen 100 on the display unit 15 is performed (step S17). If there is no request for option setting (step S16; No), the processing of steps S17 to S19 is omitted. When an option is added, changed, or deleted from the terminal 10 (step S18; Yes), the display control unit 43 is applied to the second product according to the specific contents of the option addition, change, or deletion. The option information is updated, and the option display displayed in the third area 63 is updated (step S19). When no option is added, changed, or deleted from the terminal 10 (step S18; No), the process of step S19 is omitted. Note that as a process related to the notification on the pop-up screen 122 shown in FIG. 33 described later, the display control unit 43 may determine whether or not the option added, changed, or deleted in step S18 is correct (step S31). ). In this case, when the option selection is correct (step S31; Yes), the display control unit 43 proceeds to the process of step S19. When the option selection is not correct (step S31; Yes), the display control unit 43 performs an output for causing the display unit 15 to display a notification that the option selection is incorrect (step S32). The notification displayed by the output in step S32 is, for example, a notification on the pop-up screen 122 shown in FIG. After the process of step S32, the product replacement support system 1 returns to step S17.
　端末１０から見積要求の開始を示す入力（例えば「仕様確定」ボタン７４の操作）が行われると（ステップＳ２０）、表示制御部４３は、抽出部４２による抽出結果に基づいた第２の製品の受注に用いられる見積条件入力画面８０を表示させるための出力を行う（ステップＳ２１）。見積条件入力画面８０にて端末１０から見積要求の完了を示す入力（例えば「今すぐ見積」ボタン８３の操作）が行われると（ステップＳ２２）、サーバ２０は、見積回答画面を表示させる（ステップＳ２３）。見積条件入力画面８０において仕様書要求チェックボックス９２がチェックされている場合（ステップＳ２４；Ｙｅｓ）、サーバ２０は、見積回答画面の表示とともに製品仕様情報をポップアップ画面で表示させる。（ステップＳ２５）。ここで、出力部４４は、オプション設定画面１００に対する入力により第２の製品に適用されるオプションが第１の製品に対応するオプションでなくなった場合に第１の型番を製品仕様情報に含めない。具体的には、サーバ２０は、ステップＳ１５の処理を経ることによるオプションの追加、変更又は削除が行われているか否かを判定する。オプションの追加、変更又は削除が行われている場合、出力部４４は、第１の型番を示す情報（例えば「参考にした名番」欄）を削除した状態で製品仕様情報を出力する。オプションの追加、変更又は削除が行われていない場合、出力部４４は、第１の型番を示す情報（例えば「参考にした名番」欄）を含む製品仕様情報を出力する。また、見積要求完了時に納入品仕様図データの要求（例えば納入品仕様図要求チェックボックス９３のチェック）があった場合（ステップＳ２６；Ｙｅｓ）、サーバ２０は、第２の製品の納入品仕様図データを生成出力する（ステップＳ２７）。 When an input indicating the start of an estimate request is made from the terminal 10 (for example, the operation of the “specification confirmation” button 74) (step S20), the display control unit 43 selects the second product based on the extraction result by the extraction unit 42. Output for displaying the estimate condition input screen 80 used for ordering is performed (step S21). When an input indicating completion of an estimate request is made from the terminal 10 on the estimate condition input screen 80 (for example, operation of the “immediate estimate” button 83) (step S22), the server 20 displays an estimate response screen (step S22). S23). When the specification request check box 92 is checked on the estimation condition input screen 80 (step S24; Yes), the server 20 displays the product specification information on the pop-up screen together with the display of the estimation response screen. (Step S25). Here, the output unit 44 does not include the first model number in the product specification information when the option applied to the second product is no longer the option corresponding to the first product due to the input to the option setting screen 100. Specifically, the server 20 determines whether an option is added, changed, or deleted through the process of step S15. When the option is added, changed, or deleted, the output unit 44 outputs the product specification information in a state where the information indicating the first model number (for example, the “referenced name number” column) is deleted. When the option is not added, changed, or deleted, the output unit 44 outputs product specification information including information indicating the first model number (for example, “referenced name number” column). In addition, when there is a request for delivered product specification diagram data (for example, check of the delivered product specification diagram request check box 93) when the estimate request is completed (step S26; Yes), the server 20 delivers the delivered product specification diagram of the second product. Data is generated and output (step S27).
　なお、上記の説明では、納入品仕様図データの生成完了までについて説明しているが、製品置換支援システム１は、見積が行われた第２の製品の購入に関する画面等を介した電子商取引の契約を行うための仕組みをさらに備えていてもよい。 In the above description, the process up to the completion of the generation of the delivery specification diagram data is described. However, the product replacement support system 1 performs the electronic commerce via the screen related to the purchase of the second product for which the estimation is performed. A mechanism for making a contract may be further provided.
　また、製品置換支援システム１は、第１の型番の入力を簡略化するための仕組みを備えていてもよい。図２７は、簡単置換画面１１０の一例を示す図である。サーバ２０は、例えば入出力画面６０の所定の位置（例えば「メーカ名」欄６６の右側等）に「簡単置換」又は「詳細置換」のいずれか一方を選択するための入力項目（例えばラジオボタン６９等）を表示させるようにしてもよい。ここで、「詳細置換」が選択されている場合、上記で説明した第１エリア６１に関する表示制御及び入力が行われる。一方、「簡単置換」が選択されている場合、サーバ２０は、入力フォームを構成する複数の入力領域のうち、第２の製品の特定に必須ではない情報（属性）に対応する入力領域の一部又は全部が省略された入力フォームを端末１０の表示部１５に表示させる。図２７に示す簡単置換画面１１０の第１エリア６１に表示されている入力フォームは、第２の製品の特定に必須ではない情報（属性）に対応する入力領域が省略された入力フォームである。簡単置換画面１１０で省略する入力領域を第２の製品の特定に必須ではない情報（属性）に対応する入力領域の一部又は全部のいずれとするかは、任意である。 Further, the product replacement support system 1 may include a mechanism for simplifying the input of the first model number. FIG. 27 is a diagram illustrating an example of the simple replacement screen 110. The server 20 has, for example, an input item (for example, a radio button) for selecting either “easy replacement” or “detailed replacement” at a predetermined position on the input / output screen 60 (for example, the right side of the “manufacturer name” column 66). 69) may be displayed. Here, when “detailed replacement” is selected, display control and input related to the first area 61 described above are performed. On the other hand, when “easy replacement” is selected, the server 20 selects one of the input areas corresponding to information (attributes) that is not essential for specifying the second product among the plurality of input areas constituting the input form. An input form with some or all omitted is displayed on the display unit 15 of the terminal 10. The input form displayed in the first area 61 of the simple replacement screen 110 shown in FIG. 27 is an input form in which an input area corresponding to information (attribute) that is not essential for specifying the second product is omitted. It is arbitrary whether the input area to be omitted in the easy replacement screen 110 is a part or all of the input area corresponding to information (attribute) that is not essential for specifying the second product.
　簡単置換画面１１０における第１エリア６１で入力を要求される第１の型番は、少なくとも第１の製品のシリーズ、サイズ、ベアリングの形式及び個数ならびにレール長を示す型番である。表示制御部は、図１２等を参照して説明した入出力画面６０における「詳細置換」であっても、図２７に示す簡単置換画面１１０のような「簡単置換」であっても、少なくとも第１の製品のシリーズ、サイズ、ベアリングの形式及び個数ならびにレール長を示す第１の型番を構成する複数のフレーズの各々を個別に入力するための複数の入力領域により構成される入力フォームを表示部に表示させる。 The first model number requested to be input in the first area 61 on the easy replacement screen 110 is a model number indicating at least the series, size, type and number of bearings and rail length of the first product. The display control unit has at least the first replacement whether it is “detailed replacement” in the input / output screen 60 described with reference to FIG. 12 or the like, or “simple replacement” as in the simple replacement screen 110 shown in FIG. An input form composed of a plurality of input areas for individually inputting each of a plurality of phrases constituting the first model number indicating the series, size, type and number of bearings and rail length of one product. To display.
　以上、本実施形態によれば、リニアガイドについて、第１の製品の諸元に対する第２の製品の諸元の相違を示す情報が表示されるので、製品毎の相違を考慮した情報提供をより確実に行うことができる。また、本実施形態の製品置換支援システム１を用いることで、第１の製品から第２の製品への置換を希望する顧客、このような置換を勧める営業担当者等が第１の製品を含むカタログと第２の製品の製品を含むカタログとを並べて型番を読み替える作業を自動化することができる。 As described above, according to the present embodiment, information indicating the difference in the specifications of the second product with respect to the specifications of the first product is displayed for the linear guide. It can be done reliably. In addition, by using the product replacement support system 1 of the present embodiment, customers who want to replace the first product with the second product, sales representatives who recommend such replacement, and the like include the first product. It is possible to automate the work of rearranging the catalog and the catalog including the product of the second product to replace the model number.
　また、第１の製品に関する数値と第２の製品に関する数値とが同一である場合と異なる場合とで表示態様が異なることから、第１の製品に関する数値と第２の製品に関する数値との数値の相違があるところをより明確に示すことができる。よって、第１の製品と第２の製品との相違を考慮した情報提供をより確実に行うことができる。 In addition, since the display mode differs depending on whether the numerical value related to the first product and the numerical value related to the second product are the same, the numerical value related to the numerical value related to the first product and the numerical value related to the second product You can show the difference more clearly. Therefore, it is possible to more reliably provide information in consideration of the difference between the first product and the second product.
　また、第２の製品の寸法を確認するための参考図である標準図面７２を表示するために既存の標準図面データ３２を用いることで、標準図面７２の表示に係る処理をより単純化することができ、また当該処理の負荷を低減することができる。一方、製品の見積時に提供される納入品仕様図には、製品の厳密な図面が適当であると考えられる。そこで、図面生成部４５によりオプションが適用された第２の製品の納入品仕様図データを生成することで、見積及び受発注に適当な図面を提供することができる。このように、本実施形態によれば、図面の用途に応じて処理の負荷の低減とより厳密な図面の提供とを両立することができる。 In addition, by using the existing standard drawing data 32 to display the standard drawing 72 which is a reference drawing for confirming the dimensions of the second product, the processing related to the display of the standard drawing 72 can be further simplified. And the processing load can be reduced. On the other hand, it is considered that a strict drawing of the product is appropriate for the delivered product specification diagram provided when the product is estimated. Therefore, the drawing generation unit 45 generates delivery product specification diagram data of the second product to which the option is applied, thereby providing a drawing suitable for estimation and ordering. Thus, according to the present embodiment, it is possible to achieve both a reduction in processing load and provision of a more strict drawing according to the application of the drawing.
　また、第２の製品により置換される第１の製品を示す情報を製品仕様情報に含めることができる。よって、置換前にどのような製品が使われていたかを記録することができる。また、第１の製品を置換する用途で実際に使用された第２の製品において、万が一、第１の製品を置換するのに適当でない何らかの事象が発生した場合に係る事象の原因特定が容易となる。すなわち、置換前の第１の製品が明確であるので、第１の製品と第２の製品との比較検証が容易になる。 Also, information indicating the first product replaced by the second product can be included in the product specification information. Therefore, it is possible to record what product was used before the replacement. In addition, in the second product actually used for the purpose of replacing the first product, it is easy to specify the cause of the event in the event that some event that is not suitable for replacing the first product occurs. Become. That is, since the first product before replacement is clear, it is easy to compare and verify the first product and the second product.
　また、任意のオプションを第２の製品に適用することができる。また、オプションの変更に伴い必ずしも第１の製品を置換する諸元でなくなった可能性を有する第２の製品の製品仕様情報から第１の型番を削除することで、「当該第２の製品が第１の製品を置換する製品である」という錯誤が製品仕様情報から生じる可能性を低減することができる。このため、例えば過去に得られた製品仕様情報から第２の製品を注文しようとする場合等において、その製品仕様情報で「オプションを含めた第２の製品の特徴が第１の製品に対応するかどうか」という観点での置換の妥当性を「製品仕様情報に第１の型番が記載されているかどうか」で確認することができるようになる。よって、製品仕様情報を事後に活用する際における製品の理解の助けとなる。 Also, any option can be applied to the second product. In addition, by deleting the first model number from the product specification information of the second product that may not necessarily be the specification for replacing the first product due to the change of the option, “the second product is It is possible to reduce the possibility that the error of “the product replacing the first product” is generated from the product specification information. For this reason, for example, when ordering the second product from the product specification information obtained in the past, the feature of the second product including the option corresponds to the first product in the product specification information. The validity of the replacement in terms of “whether or not” can be confirmed by “whether or not the first model number is described in the product specification information”. Therefore, it helps the understanding of the product when using the product specification information after the fact.
　また、第１の型番をフレーズ単位で入力することができる。また、入力が完了した一部のフレーズにより、未入力である残りのフレーズのうち限定又は特定可能な他のフレーズの組み合わせパターンに応じた更新が行われることから、残りのフレーズの入力をより容易に行うことができる。 Also, the first model number can be entered in phrase units. In addition, some phrases that have been input are updated according to the combination pattern of other phrases that are limited or identifiable among the remaining phrases that have not been input, making it easier to input the remaining phrases. Can be done.

　図３２は、第２の製品に適用することができない２つ以上のオプションの組み合わせに関する警告の通知例を示す図である。表示制御部４３は、所定の２つ以上のオプションの組み合わせに関する警告を通知する。具体的には、表示制御部４３は、例えば図３２に示すようなポップアップ画面１２１を表示させる。図３２に示すポップアップ画面１２１は、封入潤滑剤が「防錆油塗布」である場合、一部の取付姿勢（壁掛け又は垂直）が選択されるとベアリング２００とレール２０１との摺動部に潤滑剤が十分供給されない可能性があることを示唆するためのポップアップ画面である。係るポップアップ画面１２１により、発注者に事前に情報提供を行うことで注意を促すことができるようになる。 FIG. 32 is a diagram showing a notification example of a warning regarding a combination of two or more options that cannot be applied to the second product. The display control unit 43 notifies a warning regarding a combination of two or more predetermined options. Specifically, the display control unit 43 displays a pop-up screen 121 as shown in FIG. 32, for example. The pop-up screen 121 shown in FIG. 32 lubricates the sliding portion between the bearing 200 and the rail 201 when a part of the mounting posture (wall hanging or vertical) is selected when the encapsulated lubricant is “applying rust preventive oil”. It is a pop-up screen for suggesting that there is a possibility that the agent is not sufficiently supplied. The pop-up screen 121 can alert the orderer by providing information in advance.
　図３３は、第２の製品に適用することができない２つ以上のオプションの組み合わせが選択された場合における通知例を示す図である。図３３に示すポップアップ画面１２２は、封入潤滑剤が「防錆油塗布」であって、かつ、取付姿勢が「壁掛け」である選択状態でオプション設定画面の「ＯＫ」ボタンを押した場合、係るオプションの組み合わせを第２の製品に適用することができないことを示している。このような場合、表示制御部４３は、組み合わせ可能なオプションが選択されるまで同様の通知を表示させ、「ＯＫ」ボタンが押されてもオプション設定画面１２０によるオプションの選択を完了させられないようにする。 FIG. 33 is a diagram illustrating an example of notification when a combination of two or more options that cannot be applied to the second product is selected. The pop-up screen 122 shown in FIG. 33 is displayed when the “OK” button on the option setting screen is pressed in a selected state where the enclosed lubricant is “applying rust preventive oil” and the mounting posture is “wall mounted”. This indicates that the combination of options cannot be applied to the second product. In such a case, the display control unit 43 displays the same notification until an option that can be combined is selected, so that the option selection on the option setting screen 120 cannot be completed even if the “OK” button is pressed. To.
　表示制御部４３は、第２の製品に適用することができない２つ以上のオプションの組み合わせが選択された場合、当該２つ以上のオプションのうち最後に選択されたオプションを第２の製品に適用することができるオプションに自動的に置換するようにしてもよい。図３４及び図３５は、オプションを自動的に置換する場合の一例を示す図である。図３４に示すように、精度で「ＰＨ（精密級）」が選択され、予圧で「ＺＺ（微予圧）」が選択された状態では、材料に「ステンレス」を選択することができない。このような場合、表示制御部４３は、材料のオプションで「ステンレス」が選択されたとしても、図３５に示すように、材料のオプションを第２の製品に適用することができるオプションである「標準材」に自動的に置換する。表示制御部４３は、係る自動的な置換とともに、係る自動的な置換が行われた理由を示す通知（ポップアップ画面等）を表示させるようにしてもよい。 When a combination of two or more options that cannot be applied to the second product is selected, the display control unit 43 applies the option selected last among the two or more options to the second product. It is also possible to automatically replace options that can be used. FIG. 34 and FIG. 35 are diagrams showing an example in which options are automatically replaced. As shown in FIG. 34, in a state where “PH (precision grade)” is selected for accuracy and “ZZ (fine preload)” is selected for preload, “stainless steel” cannot be selected as the material. In such a case, even if “stainless steel” is selected as the material option, the display control unit 43 is an option that can apply the material option to the second product as shown in FIG. Automatically replaces “standard material”. The display control unit 43 may display a notification (pop-up screen or the like) indicating the reason why the automatic replacement is performed together with the automatic replacement.
　また、表示制御部４３は、１つ以上のオプションが選択されたことで他のオプションが自動的に１つに限定される場合、当該他のオプションの選択結果を固定して変更不可能にするようにしてもよい。図３６は、他のオプションが固定されたオプション設定画面の一例を示す図である。図３６に示す例では、潤滑ユニットのオプションで「Ｋ１　４枚」が選択された場合に防塵のオプションが「標準」で固定されて変更不可能になっている。これは、「Ｋ１　４枚」の潤滑ユニットを適用した場合に、防塵のオプションが「標準」に限定されるからである。図３６では、「Ｋ１　４枚」の潤滑ユニットによって限定されるオプションが防塵のみであるため、防塵以外のオプションは変更可能になっている。表示制御部４３は、このようなオプションの組み合わせに係る条件に基づいてオプション設定画面１２０の表示態様を制御する。 In addition, when one or more options are selected and the other options are automatically limited to one, the display control unit 43 fixes the selection result of the other options so that it cannot be changed. You may do it. FIG. 36 is a diagram illustrating an example of an option setting screen in which other options are fixed. In the example shown in FIG. 36, when “4 pieces of K1” is selected as the lubrication unit option, the dustproof option is fixed at “standard” and cannot be changed. This is because the dust-proof option is limited to “standard” when “4 K1” lubrication units are applied. In FIG. 36, since the only option limited by the “4 K1” lubrication units is dustproof, options other than dustproof can be changed. The display control unit 43 controls the display mode of the option setting screen 120 based on such conditions relating to the combination of options.
　オプションの組み合わせに係る条件は、例えば記憶部２１に記憶される。すなわち、記憶部２１は、第２の製品に適用される複数のオプションの組み合わせに関する情報を記憶する。具体的には、記憶部は、オプションの組み合わせを第２の製品に適用することができるか否か、特定のオプションが選択された場合に通知を表示させるか否か、特定のオプションが選択された場合に他のオプションを固定するか否か等の各種の条件を判定するための条件式を示すデータを記憶している。係るデータは、例えばソフトウェア・プログラム内の条件式として組み込まれている。サーバ２０は、係る条件式に従いオプションの組み合わせに応じた処理内容を決定する。表示制御部４３は、決定された処理内容に応じた表示制御を行うことで、上記の図２８～図３６を参照して説明した各種の表示制御を行う。なお、オプションの組み合わせに関する各種の条件の判定は条件式によるものに限らず、適宜変更可能である。例えば、データベースにオプションの組み合わせの成立の可否等を記録し、サーバに係るデータベースを参照させることでオプションの組み合わせを判定することができるようにしてもよい。 The conditions relating to the combination of options are stored in the storage unit 21, for example. That is, the storage unit 21 stores information related to a combination of a plurality of options applied to the second product. Specifically, the storage unit selects whether the combination of options can be applied to the second product, whether to display a notification when the specific option is selected, and whether the specific option is selected. In this case, data indicating a conditional expression for determining various conditions such as whether or not to fix other options is stored. Such data is incorporated, for example, as a conditional expression in a software program. The server 20 determines the processing content according to the combination of options according to the conditional expression. The display control unit 43 performs various display controls described with reference to FIGS. 28 to 36 by performing display control according to the determined processing content. Note that the determination of various conditions related to the combination of options is not limited to using conditional expressions, and can be changed as appropriate. For example, the option combination may be determined by recording whether or not the option combination is established in the database and referring to the database related to the server.
　また、表示制御部４３は、端末１０を介して行われる第２の製品の発注を受け付ける発注画面（例えば、図３８に示す発注画面１４０）を表示部に表示させるようにしてもよい。また、表示制御部４３は、発注画面で発注される第２の製品の通常の納期に比して第２の製品の納期をより早めることを要請する注文を行うことができる注文変更画面（例えば、図４１に示す注文変更画面１７０）を表示させるようにしてもよい。 Further, the display control unit 43 may cause the display unit to display an ordering screen (for example, the ordering screen 140 shown in FIG. 38) that accepts an order for the second product performed via the terminal 10. Further, the display control unit 43 can execute an order change screen (e.g., an order requesting that the delivery date of the second product be advanced earlier than the normal delivery date of the second product ordered on the ordering screen). The order change screen 170) shown in FIG. 41 may be displayed.

FIG. 42 is a diagram illustrating an example of the order confirmation screen 180. The server 20 functions as the display control unit 43 and performs a process of displaying these screens on the display unit 15 of the terminal 10.
　図２２に示す見積条件入力画面８０にて「今すぐ見積」ボタン８３が操作された場合、サーバ２０は、図３７に示すような見積回答画面１３０を表示させる。図３７における見積回答画面１３０は、見積条件入力画面８０にて入力された見積条件が反映される「お見積」エリア１３１、見積条件にたいする回答としての価格、出荷予定日等が表示される「ご回答」エリア１３２、端末１０のユーザーが係る「ご回答」内容での注文を行う場合に注文処理を進めるための「注文へ」ボタン１３４及び注文の際の注文番号（お客様ご注文番号）を表示させる「ご注文」エリア１３３等を有する。注文番号は、例えば予め定められた規則に基づいて自動的に生成される。 When the “quote now” button 83 is operated on the estimate condition input screen 80 shown in FIG. 22, the server 20 displays an estimate reply screen 130 as shown in FIG. The quote reply screen 130 in FIG. 37 displays a “estimate” area 131 in which the quote conditions entered on the quote condition input screen 80 are reflected, a price as a reply to the quote conditions, a planned shipping date, etc. "Reply" area 132, "To order" button 134 for advancing the order processing when the user of the terminal 10 places an order with the "Reply" content and the order number (customer order number) at the time of ordering are displayed It has an “order” area 133 or the like. The order number is automatically generated based on, for example, a predetermined rule.
　見積回答画面１３０にて「注文へ」ボタン１３４が操作された場合、サーバ２０は、図３８に示すような発注画面１４０を表示させる。図３８に示す発注画面１４０は、見積回答画面１３０で表示された事項の要旨に加えて、支払条件及び納入場所に関する情報が表示される「ご注文内容」エリア１４１を有する。「ご注文内容」エリア１４１の表示内容は、すなわち、端末１０のユーザーからの注文の対象となる第２の製品に関する情報を示す。また、発注画面１４０は、「ご注文内容」エリア１４１に表示された内容で注文を確定させるための「確定」ボタン１４２及び注文を行わない場合のための「キャンセル」ボタン１４３を有する。「確定」ボタン１４２が押された場合、サーバ２０は、図３９に示すような注文完了画面１５０を表示させるとともに、注文第２の製品の発注を受け付ける。 When the “To Order” button 134 is operated on the estimate response screen 130, the server 20 displays an order screen 140 as shown in FIG. The ordering screen 140 shown in FIG. 38 has an “order content” area 141 in which information on payment terms and delivery location is displayed in addition to the gist of the items displayed on the quote response screen 130. The display content of the “order content” area 141 indicates information related to the second product to be ordered by the user of the terminal 10. Further, the ordering screen 140 has a “confirm” button 142 for confirming the order with the contents displayed in the “order content” area 141 and a “cancel” button 143 for not placing an order. When the “confirm” button 142 is pressed, the server 20 displays an order completion screen 150 as shown in FIG. 39 and accepts an order for the second product of the order.
　図３９に示す注文完了画面１５０は、発注画面における「ご注文内容」と同様の情報を示す「ご注文確定」エリア１５１を有する。すなわち、注文完了画面１５０は、「ご注文確定」エリア１５１に表示されている内容での発注が完了したことを示す画面である。 The order completion screen 150 shown in FIG. 39 has an “order confirmation” area 151 indicating the same information as the “order details” on the ordering screen. That is, the order completion screen 150 is a screen indicating that the ordering with the content displayed in the “order confirmation” area 151 is completed.
　発注画面１４０で発注された注文の情報は、図示しない発注履歴記録用のデータベースに記録される。発注履歴記録用のデータベースは、サーバ２０の一機能であってもよいし、サーバ２０と通信可能に接続された他の情報処理装置の機能であってもよい。 The order information placed on the ordering screen 140 is recorded in an order history recording database (not shown). The database for order history recording may be a function of the server 20 or may be a function of another information processing apparatus that is communicably connected to the server 20.
　端末１０のユーザーは、発注履歴記録用のデータベースに記録された情報のうち、当該ユーザーが発注した注文の情報を図４０に示すような発注履歴照会画面１６０にて閲覧することができる。発注履歴照会画面１６０への遷移は、例えば図３７～図４２に示すような各種の画面に表示されているメニューバーＭの「発注履歴照会」タブから行うことができる。係るメニューバーＭは、図１２に示す入出力画面等、製品置換支援システムによって表示される他の画面に含まれていてもよい。発注履歴照会画面１６０は、１回の発注に対応する注文に関する情報が一行のレコードとして表示される注文情報表示エリア１６１を有する。 The user of the terminal 10 can view the order information ordered by the user on the order history inquiry screen 160 as shown in FIG. 40 among the information recorded in the order history record database. Transition to the order history inquiry screen 160 can be performed from an “order history inquiry” tab of the menu bar M displayed on various screens as shown in FIGS. 37 to 42, for example. The menu bar M may be included in other screens displayed by the product replacement support system, such as the input / output screen shown in FIG. The order history inquiry screen 160 has an order information display area 161 in which information related to an order corresponding to one order is displayed as a one-line record.
　発注履歴照会画面１６０にて、注文情報表示エリア１６１のいずれかの行のレコードが選択（例えば、クリック操作）されると、サーバ２０は、図４１に示すような注文変更画面１７０を表示させる。注文変更画面１７０では、端末１０のユーザーは、発注画面１４０で発注される第２の製品の通常の納期に比して第２の製品の納期をより早めることを要請する注文を行うことができる。具体的には、注文変更画面１７０は、発注履歴照会画面１６０で選択された注文における第２の製品の型番（Ａ社名番）、第２の製品の数量（数量）、設定されている出荷予定日（出荷予定日）等、発注画面における「ご注文内容」と同様の情報を示すエリア１７１と、注文をキャンセルするための「キャンセル」ボタン１７２と、第２の製品の納期をより早めることを要請する「今すぐ発注」ボタン１７３とを有する。「キャンセル」ボタン１７２が押された場合、サーバ２０は、所定の条件が満たされる場合に注文を取り消す処理を行う。所定の条件とは、例えば発注画面から発注された注文の発注日と同日中に当該注文についてキャンセルされた場合をさす。所定の条件は、任意である。 When any record in the order information display area 161 is selected (for example, click operation) on the order history inquiry screen 160, the server 20 displays an order change screen 170 as shown in FIG. On the order change screen 170, the user of the terminal 10 can make an order requesting that the delivery date of the second product be advanced compared to the normal delivery date of the second product ordered on the ordering screen 140. . Specifically, the order change screen 170 displays the model number (name of company A) of the second product, the quantity (quantity) of the second product, and the set shipping schedule in the order selected on the order history inquiry screen 160. An area 171 that shows the same information as the “order details” on the ordering screen, such as the date (planned shipping date), a “cancel” button 172 for canceling the order, and a faster delivery date for the second product And an “Order now” button 173 to request. When the “cancel” button 172 is pressed, the server 20 performs processing for canceling the order when a predetermined condition is satisfied. The predetermined condition refers to a case where the order is canceled on the same day as the order date of the order placed on the ordering screen. The predetermined condition is arbitrary.
　「今すぐ発注」ボタン１７３が押されると、サーバ２０は、図４２に示すような発注確定画面１８０を表示させる。発注確定画面１８０の表示項目は、図３９に示す注文完了画面１５０における「ご注文確定」の文字列が「今すぐ発注確定」に変更されている点を除いて注文完了画面と同一である。ただし、「出荷予定日」に設定される日付は、発注画面で発注される第２の製品の通常の納期に比してより早い納期に対応する日付である。注文変更画面にて「今すぐ発注」ボタンを押した場合の納期の短縮の度合いは、第２の製品の製造に係る諸条件に基づいて決定される。 When the “Order Now” button 173 is pressed, the server 20 displays an order confirmation screen 180 as shown in FIG. The display items on the order confirmation screen 180 are the same as those on the order completion screen except that the character string of “order confirmation” on the order completion screen 150 shown in FIG. 39 is changed to “order confirmation now”. However, the date set as the “scheduled shipping date” is a date corresponding to an earlier delivery date than the normal delivery date of the second product ordered on the ordering screen. The degree of shortening of the delivery date when the “order now” button is pressed on the order change screen is determined based on various conditions relating to the manufacture of the second product.
　また、サーバ２０は、発注画面１４０で発注された注文の内容を示す伝票を発行する発行部（例えば、図４４に示す発行部４６）として機能してもよい。図４３は、サーバ２０が発行部４６として機能する場合の製品置換支援システム１Ａの構成の一例を示す図である。製品置換支援システム１Ａは、製品置換支援システム１の構成に加えて、第２の製品の製造を行う拠点に設けられた端末５０及び印刷装置（プリンタ）５１を備える。サーバ２０と端末５０とは、例えばコンピュータネットワークの通信回線Ｎａにより通信可能に接続される。図４３に示す例では、通信回線Ｎと通信回線Ｎａとが独立しているが、物理的には同一のネットワーク（例えば、インターネット回線）に接続されていてもよい。ただし、製品置換支援システム１Ａは、端末１０と端末５０との直接の通信が不可能となるよう設けられている。端末５０は、所謂情報処理装置（コンピューター）である。 Further, the server 20 may function as an issuing unit (for example, the issuing unit 46 shown in FIG. 44) that issues a slip indicating the contents of the order placed on the ordering screen 140. FIG. 43 is a diagram illustrating an example of the configuration of the product replacement support system 1A when the server 20 functions as the issuing unit 46. In addition to the configuration of the product replacement support system 1, the product replacement support system 1 </ b> A includes a terminal 50 and a printing apparatus (printer) 51 provided at a base where the second product is manufactured. The server 20 and the terminal 50 are communicably connected via a communication line Na of a computer network, for example. In the example shown in FIG. 43, the communication line N and the communication line Na are independent, but may be physically connected to the same network (for example, the Internet line). However, the product replacement support system 1A is provided so that direct communication between the terminal 10 and the terminal 50 is impossible. The terminal 50 is a so-called information processing device (computer).
　図４４は、製品置換支援システム１Ａにおけるサーバ２０の機能の一例を示す機能ブロック図である。サーバ２０は、演算部２２が製品置換支援プログラム３０を実行することで、上記のデータベース４１、抽出部４２、表示制御部４３、出力部４４、図面生成部４５等に加えて、さらに発行部４６として機能する。 FIG. 44 is a functional block diagram showing an example of functions of the server 20 in the product replacement support system 1A. In addition to the database 41, the extraction unit 42, the display control unit 43, the output unit 44, the drawing generation unit 45, and the like, the server 20 further includes the issuing unit 46 by the calculation unit 22 executing the product replacement support program 30. Function as.
　図４５は、発行部４６により発光された伝票３００の一例を示す図である。発行部４６は、発注画面で発注された注文の内容を示す伝票３００を発行する。具体的には、サーバ２０は、発注履歴記録用のデータベースに記録された注文の内容を示す伝票３００を印刷するためのデータを端末５０に送信することで、伝票３００を発行する。端末５０で印刷装置５１を用いて当該データに基づいた印刷を行うことで、図４５に示すような伝票３００（移動票）を印刷出力することができる。印刷出力された伝票３００は、第２の製品の製造を行う拠点において第２の製品の製造及び出荷において参照されるとともに、第２の製品の納品に際して当該第２の製品に添付される。 FIG. 45 is a diagram showing an example of a slip 300 emitted by the issuing unit 46. As shown in FIG. The issuing unit 46 issues a slip 300 indicating the contents of the order placed on the ordering screen. Specifically, the server 20 issues the slip 300 by transmitting data for printing the slip 300 indicating the contents of the order recorded in the order history recording database to the terminal 50. By performing printing based on the data using the printing device 51 at the terminal 50, a slip 300 (movement slip) as shown in FIG. 45 can be printed out. The printed out slip 300 is referred to in manufacturing and shipping of the second product at the site where the second product is manufactured, and attached to the second product when the second product is delivered.
　伝票３００を印刷するためのデータの形式は任意である。当該データは、例えば、図４５に示す伝票フォーマットに含まれる各種項目の記載内容を示すデータである。この場合、伝票フォーマットは、端末５０の記憶部に予め記憶されている。当該データは、画像データ等であってもよい。この場合、端末５０側での伝票フォーマットの記憶保持は不要である。 The data format for printing the slip 300 is arbitrary. The data is, for example, data indicating the description contents of various items included in the slip format shown in FIG. In this case, the slip format is stored in advance in the storage unit of the terminal 50. The data may be image data or the like. In this case, it is not necessary to store and hold the slip format on the terminal 50 side.
　図４６は、第２の製品の納期をより早めることを要請する注文が行われたことを示す表記（特急表記）を含む伝票の一例を示す図である。発行部４６は、注文変更画面で第２の製品の納期をより早めることを要請する注文が行われたことを示す表記を伝票３００に含める。具体的には、サーバ２０は、発注履歴記録用のデータベースに記録された注文であって、注文変更画面で「今すぐ発注」ボタンが押されるに至った注文の内容を示す伝票３１０を印刷するためのデータを端末５０に送信することで、当該伝票３１０を発行する。当該伝票３１０は、図４６に示すように、特急表記として図４５に示す通常の伝票３００の内容に「特急」の文字列を含むシンボル３１１が付加されている。特急表記が付加されている伝票３１０を確認することで、第２の製品の製造を行う製造者（スタッフ）は、係る伝票に記載された注文が納期をより早めることを要請された注文であることを容易に確認することができる。 FIG. 46 is a diagram showing an example of a slip including a notation (express notation) indicating that an order for requesting that the delivery date of the second product be advanced is made. The issuing unit 46 includes in the slip 300 a notation indicating that an order for requesting that the delivery date of the second product is further advanced is made on the order change screen. Specifically, the server 20 prints a voucher 310 indicating the contents of the order recorded in the order history recording database and the order being changed on the order change screen. The slip 310 is issued by transmitting the data for the terminal 50 to the terminal 50. As shown in FIG. 46, the slip 310 has a symbol 311 including a character string “limited express” added to the contents of the normal slip 300 shown in FIG. By confirming the slip 310 to which the express notation is added, the manufacturer (staff) who manufactures the second product is the order for which the order described in the slip is requested to advance the delivery date. This can be easily confirmed.
　以上、図２９～図４６を参照して説明した構成によれば、表示制御部が見積条件入力画面８０及び発注画面１４０を表示させるので、端末からの第１の型番の入力によって第２の製品の見積及び見積を経た注文を行うことができる。 As described above, according to the configuration described with reference to FIGS. 29 to 46, the display control unit displays the estimation condition input screen 80 and the ordering screen 140, so that the second product can be input by inputting the first model number from the terminal. You can place an order with a quote and a quote.
　また、オプション設定画面１２０が第２の製品の精度、予圧、材料、表面処理、潤滑ユニットの封入潤滑剤、取付姿勢、取付基準面、レール継ぎ仕様、給油器種類、給油器取付の位置及び向き、防塵部品及び取付穴キャップを選択するための画面であることで、第２の製品の用途に応じてオプションを任意に選択決定することができる。 In addition, the option setting screen 120 displays the accuracy, preload, material, surface treatment, lubrication lubricant of the lubrication unit, mounting orientation, mounting reference plane, rail joint specification, lubricator type, lubricator mounting position and orientation. The screen for selecting the dust-proof component and the mounting hole cap allows the option to be arbitrarily selected and determined according to the application of the second product.
　また、オプション設定画面１００，１２０を介してオプションの選択を行うことができる。また、所定の２つ以上のオプションの組み合わせに関する警告によってオプションの選択に係る情報提供を行うことができる。 Also, options can be selected via the option setting screens 100 and 120. Information relating to option selection can be provided by a warning regarding a combination of two or more predetermined options.
　また、第２の製品に適用することができない２つ以上のオプションの組み合わせが選択された場合、当該２つ以上のオプションのうち最後に選択されたオプションを第２の製品に適用することができるオプションに自動的に置換することで、組み合わせが可能なオプションの選択を示唆することができる。 In addition, when a combination of two or more options that cannot be applied to the second product is selected, the last selected option of the two or more options can be applied to the second product. Automatic replacement with options can suggest selection of options that can be combined.
　また、１つ以上のオプションが選択されたことで他のオプションが自動的に１つに限定される場合、当該他のオプションの選択結果を固定して変更不可能にすることで、組み合わせが可能なオプションの選択を示唆することができる。 In addition, when one or more options are selected and other options are automatically limited to one, combination is possible by fixing the selection result of the other options and making it unchangeable. Suggesting a choice of options.
　また、発注画面１４０で発注される第２の製品の通常の納期に比して第２の製品の納期をより早めることを要請する注文を行うことができる注文変更画面１７０を表示させ、注文変更画面１７０で納期をより早めることを要請する注文が行われたことを示す表記（例えばシンボル３１１）を発行部４６が伝票３１０に含めるようにすることで、第２の製品の注文に際して、通常より納期をより早める要請に対応することができる。 In addition, the order change screen 170 that allows the user to place an order requesting that the second product be delivered earlier than the normal delivery date of the second product ordered on the ordering screen 140 is displayed to change the order. The issuing unit 46 includes a notation (for example, the symbol 311) indicating that an order for requesting an earlier delivery date on the screen 170 is included in the slip 310. We can respond to requests for faster delivery.
　上記の実施形態では、製品仕様情報の要求時に納入品仕様図データを同時に要求するか否かを選択可能になっているが、製品仕様情報の要求時に自動的に納入品仕様図データが要求されるようにしてもよい。すなわち、図面生成部４５として機能するサーバ２０は、端末１０から製品仕様情報の要求を示す入力があった場合にオプションが適用された第２の製品の納入品仕様図データを生成するようにしてもよい。また、製品仕様情報等のデータとして、プリンタ等による印刷出力が可能なファイル形式でのダウンロードが可能なデータを提供するようにしてもよい。 In the above embodiment, it is possible to select whether or not to request delivered product specification diagram data at the same time as requesting product specification information. However, delivered product specification diagram data is automatically requested when requesting product specification information. You may make it do. That is, the server 20 functioning as the drawing generation unit 45 generates delivery specification diagram data of the second product to which the option is applied when an input indicating a request for product specification information is received from the terminal 10. Also good. Further, as data such as product specification information, data that can be downloaded in a file format that can be printed out by a printer or the like may be provided.
　上記の実施形態では、所謂ウェブシステムを構築するためのソフトウェア・プログラムとして製品置換支援アプリケーションが設けられているが、これは一例であってこれに限られるものでない。例えば、専用のサーバ用ソフトウェア・プログラム及びクライアント用ソフトウェア・プログラムにより製品置換支援アプリケーションが構成されてもよい。 In the above embodiment, the product replacement support application is provided as a software program for constructing a so-called web system, but this is an example and the present invention is not limited to this. For example, the product replacement support application may be configured by a dedicated server software program and client software program.
