The present disclosure will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and in conjunction with embodiments.

FIG. 2 is a schematic diagram 200 of an application scenario of a method for generating allocation information according to some embodiments of the present disclosure.

The execution body of the method for generating allocation information in some embodiments of the present disclosure may be the first processing end or the second processing end. The first processing end takes the terminal 201 of the store as an example, and the second processing end takes the terminal 202 of the exclusive warehouse of the store as an example. It should be noted that the terminal may be hardware or software. When the terminal is hardware, it can be various electronic devices, including but not limited to smart phones, tablet computers, handheld PDAs (personal digital assistants), desktop computers, and so on. When the terminal is software, it can be installed in the electronic devices listed above. It can be implemented, for example, as multiple software or software modules for providing distributed services, or as a single software or software module. There is no specific limitation here.

The terminal 201 of the store and the terminal 202 of the exclusive warehouse can communicate in a wired or wireless manner. Optionally, as required, a background server 203 may also be included. Therefore, both the terminal 201 of the store and the terminal 202 of the exclusive warehouse can communicate with the background server 203. According to implementation requirements, the methods for generating allocation information in some embodiments of the present disclosure may also be executed by the background server 203 .

For the case where the execution subject is the terminal 201 of the store, in this scenario, the target place is a certain store, the target item can be any product sold in this store (take live shrimp as an example), and the target category is fresh example. On this basis, the terminal 201 of the store can first determine whether the category of the target item used in the target place is the target category, that is, whether the category of live shrimp is the fresh category. Specifically, as an example, it is possible to query whether the data of the live shrimp in the database contains a preset mark. It can be understood that, for the data of all the items sold in the store in the database, the data of the items can be marked according to whether each item is an item of the target category. Therefore, it can be determined whether it is a target category by querying whether the data of an item contains a preset mark.

On this basis, in response to determining that the category of the target item is the target category, first acquisition information corresponding to the target item may be generated. In this scenario, the category of live shrimp is fresh, so that the first acquisition information corresponding to the live shrimp can be generated. As an example, the first acquired information may be a purchase plan. Then, based on the first acquisition information, second acquisition information for the storage bin corresponding to the target location and allocation information corresponding to the second acquisition information may be generated, where the allocation information includes information related to allocation of items from the storage warehouse to the target location. As an example, purchase orders and dispatch orders for storage bins (exclusive warehouses) may be generated according to the purchase plan.

In the case where the execution subject is the terminal 202 of the exclusive warehouse, in response to determining that an item of the target category has been put into the warehouse, the terminal 202 of the exclusive warehouse may increase the inventory quantity of the item. As an example, in response to the arrival of live shrimp, the terminal 202 of the dedicated warehouse may increase the inventory quantity of live shrimp. On this basis, information is sent to the information receiving end (in this application scenario, it may be the background server 203), so that the information receiving end updates the status of the acquired information (in this scenario, the purchase order) corresponding to the live shrimp. After the exclusive warehouse is put into storage, it does not need to be put on the shelves, but directly enters the allocation process. Specifically, based on the allocation information corresponding to the acquired information (in this scenario, the allocation order), an operation for allocating the items of the target category to the target place (eg, a store) is performed.

It should be noted that the number of terminals in FIG. 2 is only illustrative. There can be any number of terminals according to implementation needs. In some scenarios, the first processing terminal and the second processing terminal may also be the same processing terminal.

Continuing to refer to FIG. 3 , a flow 300 of some embodiments of a method for generating call information according to the present disclosure is shown. The method for generating allocation information includes the following steps:

Step 301, determine whether the category of the target item used in the target place is the target category.

In some embodiments, the execution body of the allocation information generation method (eg, the terminal 201 of the store in FIG. 2 ) may determine whether the category of the target item used in the target place is the target category. Among them, the target item can be used in the target place in various ways. For example, the target item may be stored in the target location. As another example, the target item may be sold at the target location. The target location can be any location, and the target item can be any item used for the target location. For example, the target location can be a certain store, and the target item can be any item sold in the store. Of course, the target item can also be an item that is intended to be sold in this store or has been sold in this store, and so on. It can be understood that, according to actual needs, the target location can also be multiple stores, which is convenient for subsequent storage warehouses to obtain uniformly.

In practice, the above-mentioned executive body can determine whether the category of the target item is the target category in various ways. As an example, whether the data of the target item in the database contains a preset mark can be queried. It can be understood that, for the data of all the items sold in the store in the database, the data of the items can be marked according to whether each item is an item of the target category. Therefore, it can be determined whether it is a target category by querying whether the data of an item contains a preset mark. For another example, whether it is the target category can be determined by querying whether the value of the flag bit in the item data corresponding to the target item in the database is "1". It can be understood that, in this query method, the value of the flag bit of the item data in the database needs to be set in advance. Of course, it is also possible to set fields for representing categories, etc.

In some optional implementations of some embodiments, in response to receiving the acquisition requirement information for the target item, it is determined whether the category of the target item for the target location is the target category. In these implementations, the acquired demand information may be input by the user, for example, the replenishment information input by the store staff. In these methods, the timing of determining whether the category is the target category is increased, which has a higher degree of matching with the actual application scenario and is more applicable. In addition, the consumption of resources such as memory by frequently executing methods can be avoided.

Step 302, in response to determining that the category of the target item is the target category, generate first acquisition information corresponding to the target item.

In some embodiments, in response to determining that the category of the target item is the target category, the execution subject may generate first acquisition information corresponding to the target item. The first acquisition information includes information related to the acquisition plan, including but not limited to: the planned acquisition quantity, the planned acquisition date, the planned acquisition grade, the planned acquisition brand, and the like. In practice, as an example, the information may be determined by receiving user input, and may be generated by preset information and certain logic or rules. As an example, the default quantity of each acquisition of the target item may be preset, so that the default quantity may be directly read as the quantity in the first acquisition information.

Step 303, based on the first acquisition information, generate the second acquisition information for the storage bin corresponding to the target place and the allocation information corresponding to the second acquisition information, and the allocation information includes direct allocation from the storage warehouse to the warehouse without putting the item on the shelf. Information about the target site.

In some embodiments, the above-mentioned execution subject may generate, based on the first acquisition information, the second acquisition information for the storage bin corresponding to the target location and the allocation information corresponding to the second acquisition information. The storage bin corresponding to the target site may be an exclusive warehouse of the target site. That is, items for the target location can be replenished from the corresponding storage bin. In practice, the storage bin corresponding to the target site may be determined by pre-setting or by screening certain conditions. The second acquisition information includes information related to actual acquisition, including but not limited to: quantity, date, grade, brand, and the like. In practice, these information are generated from the first acquired information. As an example, the second acquisition information may be an acquisition order. The second acquired information is used for the storage bin, that is, for the storage bin, processing such as item acquisition (eg, procurement) can be performed according to the second acquired information. In addition, the allocation information corresponding to the second acquisition information can also be generated, and the allocation information includes the relevant information on the direct allocation of the items from the storage warehouse to the target site without putting the item on the shelf, including but not limited to: target site location information, allocation time, allocation quantity, etc. In practice, this information can be determined in various ways. For example, it may be preset. For example, the location information of the target location may be pre-input in the system. In this way, the location information of the target location can be obtained by querying the system. Of course, these information may also be obtained based on the first acquired information. For example, the dispatch time may be the date in the first acquisition information.

In some optional implementations of some embodiments, in response to determining that the item corresponding to the allocation information has arrived at the target location, information is sent to the information receiving end, so that the information receiving end updates the state of the allocation information. In these implementation manners, by sending information to the information receiving end and updating the status of the allocation information, the status of the allocation information is monitored, thereby facilitating timely understanding of the status of the allocation information.

In the methods provided by some embodiments of the present disclosure, the first acquisition information corresponding to the target item is generated, and then the second acquisition information and the corresponding allocation information of the storage bin corresponding to the target place are generated according to the first acquisition information. This provides a basis for the storage bin to acquire and allocate target items. Among them, the second acquisition information and the allocation information correspond to each other, which is conducive to the subsequent realization of accurate and timely allocation. In addition, by determining whether the category of the target item is the target category, the methods of some embodiments can be executed only for items of the target category, thereby implementing differentiated processing for items of different categories. In practice, target categories can be set as needed to achieve different functions. As an example, the target category may be fresh food, so that the subsequent differentiated acquisition and allocation of fresh food items can be realized. As a result, the replenishment time of fresh items can be reduced and losses can be reduced.

With further reference to FIG. 4, a flow 400 of further embodiments of the information generation method is shown. The process 400 of the information generation method includes the following steps:

Step 401, determine whether the category of the target item used in the target place is the target category.

Step 402, in response to determining that the category of the target item is the target category, generate first acquisition information corresponding to the target item.

In some embodiments, for the specific implementation of steps 401-402 and the technical effects brought about by them, reference may be made to steps 301-302 in those embodiments corresponding to FIG. 3, and details are not repeated here.

Step 403 , based on the first acquired information, push audit prompt information for the first acquired information to the auditing terminal.

In some embodiments, the execution body of the information generation method may push audit prompt information for the first acquired information to the auditing terminal based on the first acquired information. Wherein, the audit terminal may be a terminal used by the auditor, including but not limited to: a smart phone, a tablet computer, a handheld PDA (personal digital assistant), a desktop computer, and the like. The audit prompt information can be in various forms, including but not limited to: pictures, text, audio, video, and so on. The reviewer can be any user.

Step 404: Receive audit indication information from the audit terminal.

In some embodiments, the above-mentioned execution body may receive audit indication information from the audit terminal. Wherein, the audit indication information can be used to indicate whether the audit is passed.

Step 405, in response to the review indication information indicating that the review has passed, based on the first access information, generate second access information for the storage bin corresponding to the target site and transfer information corresponding to the second access information, where the transfer information includes removing the item from the storage bin. Information about warehouse transfers to target locations.

In some embodiments, in response to the audit indication information indicating that the audit is passed, the above-mentioned execution body may generate the second acquisition information for the storage bin corresponding to the target location and the allocation information corresponding to the second acquisition information based on the first acquisition information, The transfer information includes information about the transfer of the item from the storage bin to the target location.

As can be seen from FIG. 4, compared with the description of some embodiments corresponding to FIG. 3, the steps of pushing the audit prompt information and receiving the audit instruction information are added, so that the audit step is introduced in the method execution process to adapt to the audit scenario, The applicable scenarios are further enriched.

With further reference to FIG. 5, a flow 500 of some embodiments of an item allocation method is shown. The process 500 of the item allocation method includes the following steps:

Step 501, in response to determining that an item of the target category is stocked, increase the inventory quantity of the item.

In some embodiments, in response to determining that an item of the target category is put into the warehouse, the execution body of the item allocation method (eg, the terminal 202 of the dedicated warehouse in FIG. 2 ) may increase the inventory quantity of the item. In practice, the above-mentioned executive body may determine that items of the target category are put into storage in various ways. For example, purchasing staff can scan barcodes of incoming items with a handheld PDA. The barcode can include information such as the name, category and so on of the item. In this way, when the information of the item of the target category is scanned, it can be determined that there is an item of the target category in the warehouse. For another example, it can be determined by receiving the input information of the purchasing personnel that the items with the target category are put into the warehouse. On this basis, the inventory quantity of the item can be increased. In practice, the specific amount can be obtained in various ways. For example, receiving the quantity entered by the purchaser, etc.

Step 502: Send information to the information receiving end, so that the information receiving end updates the state of the acquired information corresponding to the item.

In some embodiments, the above-mentioned execution body may send information to the information receiving end, so that the information receiving end updates the status of the acquired information corresponding to the item. Among them, the acquisition of information takes the purchase order as an example. Purchase orders can have different statuses. As an example, it can be divided into "completed state" and "incomplete state" according to whether the purchase has been completed. When the item corresponding to the purchase order has not been purchased and put into storage, the status of the purchase order can be "Incomplete", and when the corresponding item has been purchased and put into storage, the status of the purchase order can be "Completed". It can be understood that, in practice, the acquired information can also be divided into different states according to other division criteria as required.

Step 503 , based on the allocation information corresponding to the acquired information, perform an operation for allocating the items of the target category to the target location.

In some embodiments, the above-mentioned executing subject may execute an operation for allocating the items of the target category to the target place based on the allocation information corresponding to the information. Specifically, the operation for allocating the object of the target category to the target location may be a series of logical operations. By executing these logical operations by the executive body, the delivery personnel or the automatic delivery vehicle can dispatch the items of the target category to the target location. As an example, these logical operations may be displaying prompt information for delivery personnel. Therefore, the delivery personnel can deliver according to the prompt information, so as to realize the allocation of the items of the target category to the target place. As yet another example, the identifier of the target location may be added to the item information of the item of the target category. Therefore, the automatic distribution vehicle can identify the identification, so as to realize the transfer of the target category of items to the target place.

In some optional implementations of some embodiments, the method further includes: in response to determining that the item has been shipped out of the warehouse, reducing the inventory quantity of the item; sending information to the information receiving end so that the information receiving end updates the allocation information corresponding to the acquired information status. In these implementations, automatic updating of the status of the dialing information is achieved.

In some optional implementations of some embodiments, the out-stock quantity of the item is determined according to the stock-in quantity of the item and the item quantity in the acquired information.

In some optional implementations of some embodiments, the outbound quantity is determined by the following steps: in response to determining that the inbound quantity is greater than the number of items in the acquired information, determining the number of items in the allocation information corresponding to the acquired information is the out-stock quantity; in response to determining that the in-stock quantity is less than or equal to the item quantity in the acquired information, the item quantity in the acquired information is determined as the out-of-stock quantity. In these implementation manners, the automatic determination of the outbound quantity is realized under the condition of different inbound quantities.

In some optional implementations of some embodiments, the method further includes: in response to determining that the in-stock quantity is greater than the number of items in the acquired information, performing an operation for placing a target quantity of items on the shelf, wherein the target quantity is the in-stock quantity The difference between the quantity and the out-of-stock quantity. In these implementation manners, in the case where the quantity of the stored items is greater than the quantity of items in the acquired information, the operation for putting the target quantity of items on the shelves is performed, thereby realizing the processing of putting the redundant items on the shelves.

In the methods provided by some embodiments of the present disclosure, after the items of the target category are put into the warehouse, the allocation logic is triggered, and the execution subject can perform the operation for allocating the items of the target category to the target place without putting them on the shelves, so as to realize the realisation of the items. Fast allocation shortens the allocation time, thereby reducing the wastage of the target category (such as fresh food). In addition, by updating the status of the acquired information of the item, monitoring and automatic update of the status of the acquired information can be realized.
