The server 120 communicates with the user terminal 110 and provides information to the user terminal 110. In one embodiment, the server 120 may include a server that provides an e-commerce service for selling items. The server 120 may obtain a plurality of delivery quotations provided for selling an item from an item supplier, and provide a page containing at least a portion of the plurality of delivery quotations to the user terminal 110. The server 120 may create a work page for the delivery quotation selected by the user and provide it to the user terminal 110. The server 120 may generate identification information associated with the item corresponding to the selected delivery quotation based on information on the selected delivery quotation and a user's input corresponding to the work page.

Referring to FIG. 2, a method of exchanging information between a user terminal and a server and operating at each node according to an embodiment of the present invention is disclosed.

At step 205, the server may obtain a plurality of delivery quotes provided from the item supplier. Item suppliers may include item suppliers or individual business owners who wish to sell items through e-commerce services. The delivery quote may include information about one or more items that the item supplier wishes to sell through the e-commerce service. For example, information about an item includes basic information about the item (item name, barcode, image, category, etc.), unique information about the item (attributes, brand, etc.), legal elements and notification information related to item sales, etc. It can be included. The server can provide the item supplier with a delivery quotation in a predetermined format or standard, and the item supplier can write information about the item to be sold in accordance with the predetermined format or standard and submit it to the server. The server may store multiple delivery estimates obtained from item suppliers in a database.

In step 210, the server may provide a quotation list page including at least part of a plurality of delivery quotations to the user terminal. In one embodiment, the server may allocate some of the plurality of delivery quotations to workers and provide the delivery quotations assigned to the workers to the user terminal.

In one embodiment, the server obtains condition information from the worker's user terminal, checks a delivery quotation corresponding to the condition information among a plurality of delivery quotations, and creates a quotation list page including a list of delivery quotations corresponding to the condition information. It can be provided to the worker's user terminal. The worker may enter condition information for the delivery quotation he or she wants to work on in order to filter the delivery quotation he or she wants to work on among the plurality of delivery quotations stored in the server's database. The worker can filter and receive only the delivery quotations that meet the conditions he entered, and perform work on the received delivery quotations.

In one embodiment, the condition information may include information about at least one of the type, group, and number of delivery estimates on which the worker will perform work. The type of delivery quotation may be determined depending on whether the delivery quotation is a new quotation or a quotation that has previously been rejected. For example, by filtering and obtaining only quotations that have been rejected once, workers can prioritize work on rejected quotations. The group of the delivery quotation may be determined according to grouping information (eg, consumable, apparel, fresh, etc.) associated with the database in which the delivery quotation is stored. Additionally, the worker can input the number of quotations for which he or she wishes to perform work as condition information and obtain the desired number of delivery quotations.

In one embodiment, the server's confirmation of the delivery quotation corresponding to the condition information may include sequentially checking the delivery quotation obtained first among the delivery quotations corresponding to the condition information. If there are multiple delivery estimates corresponding to the condition information, the server can apply the first-in-first-out principle to sort the multiple delivery estimates in the order in which they are first obtained from the item supplier and provide them to the worker.

In one embodiment, the server checks the delivery quotation corresponding to the condition information, checks the priority of the delivery quotation corresponding to the condition information, and considers the priority to determine the priority among the delivery quotation corresponding to the condition information. This may include sequentially checking the delivery quotation starting from the highest. Priority can be determined by considering the type, group, etc. of the delivery quotation. For example, if the delivery quotation is a rejected quotation, the server may set a priority so that the rejected quotation is processed before new quotations to prevent excessive processing delays compared to other quotations. As another example, if a delivery quotation belongs to a fresh food group, the server may set the priority so that it is processed before delivery quotations belonging to other groups.

In one embodiment, priority may be determined based on the item supplier providing the delivery quote. For example, the server may set the processing priority of a delivery quotation provided by an item supplier with a relatively large history of selling items through its e-commerce service to be higher than that of other item suppliers. For another example, the server can induce new influx of item suppliers by setting the processing priority of delivery estimates provided by item suppliers who have no history of selling items through its e-commerce service higher than that of other item suppliers. there is.

Referring to FIG. 3A, a page 300 for displaying a list of delivery estimates is shown. Page 300 may include a tab 301, which may be configured to allow an operator to select one of one or more inspection tasks to perform on the delivery quote. One or more inspection tasks may include BIC (Basic Information Check), catalog inspection, and image inspection. The dashboard tab of the tab 301 may be configured to allow an authorized person (eg, manager) to check the processing status of the delivery quotation currently assigned to a plurality of workers. In one embodiment, the manager checks the assignment and processing status of multiple delivery quotes, assigns delivery quotes that have not yet been assigned to a worker, or reassigns a delivery quote already assigned to a specific worker to another worker. You can. In one embodiment, the manager may enter the dashboard page through the dashboard tab of tab 301 to check the allocation and processing status of a plurality of delivery quotations and perform assignment and reallocation of delivery quotations.

The page 300 may include an object 302 for a worker to receive a quotation for work. In one embodiment, when a worker clicks on the object 302, a list of quotations pre-allocated to the worker is displayed on the page 300, and the worker selects each quotation included in the quotation list and inspects item information for each quotation. and creation tasks can be performed. In another embodiment, when a worker clicks on object 302, a page may be displayed for entering condition information for a delivery quote that the worker wishes to receive (described later in FIG. 3C).

Page 300 may include an object 303 indicating whether the worker is currently working. The worker can indicate that the worker is performing work by setting the flag of the object 303 to “On”, and the time set to “On” can be input as the worker’s work start time. The worker can indicate to other workers or managers that the worker is not currently performing work by setting the flag of the object 303 to “Off”.

In one embodiment, page 300 may include an area for a worker to perform a search for a delivery quotation. In the above area, workers can search for delivery quotations by entering information such as quotation ID, quotation signature, category, company, priority, and registration date.

Referring to FIG. 3B , page 300 may include a quotation list 304 including one or more delivery quotations obtained by a worker clicking on an object 302 . The worker can conveniently check the information (e.g., current status, priority, number of included items, category, previous worker, company, etc.) of the quotation assigned to the worker through the quotation list 304. The worker can click on one delivery quotation included in the quotation list 304 to inspect and create item information for the selected delivery quotation.

In one embodiment, a worker may reallocate some of the delivery quotes assigned to him/her (e.g., due to personal reasons (early departure), work difficulty, etc.) to other workers. For example, a worker may select some delivery quotations from the quotation list 304 displayed on page 300 and request the server to reallocate the selected delivery quotations to other workers. When reassigning a delivery quotation, workers can search for a specific worker by searching their name or ID, and can also check the current status (on/off) of the searched worker.

Referring to FIG. 3C, a page 305 is shown where the worker enters condition information for the delivery quotation that he or she wishes to receive. In one embodiment, the page 305 may be provided according to the operator's input of the object 302. Page 305 may be configured to allow the worker to input information about the type, group, and number of delivery estimates that the worker wishes to work on as condition information. Workers enter the type (e.g., new quotation or rejected quotation), group (e.g., consumer goods, clothing, fresh food, etc.) and number of delivery quotations, and the quotation that meets the entered conditions is automatically assigned. You can receive it. The groups of quotations displayed on page 305 are exemplary, and for example, the server may preferentially display groups with a large number of quotations to be currently worked on.

In one embodiment, the number of delivery quotations among the condition information for the delivery quotation may be automatically determined by considering at least one of the worker's ability, the number of workers currently available for work, the type of quotation, and the group of quotations. The server can generate information about the worker's work ability based on the processing history of the worker's delivery quotation and store it in the database, and set the appropriate number of delivery quotations according to the worker's work ability. For example, for a worker who has a fast average processing speed of delivery quotations, the number of quotations may be set to 20, while for a worker who has a slow average processing speed of delivery quotations, the number of quotations may be set to 10. As another example, if the number of workers capable of working on a delivery quotation is less than a standard value, the server may set the number of quotations to a certain number or more so that work on the delivery quotation can be performed more quickly. The server can check whether the worker is capable of working through the flag input of the object 303 in FIG. 3A. As another example, considering that the time it takes to work on a quotation may vary depending on the type and group of the quotation, the server can automatically determine the number of quotations entered by the worker depending on the type and group of the quotation. .

Alternatively, among the condition information for the delivery quotation, the upper and lower limits of the number of delivery quotations that can be entered may be determined by considering at least one of the worker's ability, the number of workers currently available for work, the type of quotation, and the group of quotations.

Referring again to FIG. 2, in step 215, the user terminal may obtain a selection input corresponding to the quotation list page from the worker and provide the obtained selection input to the server. The worker selects one delivery quotation to work on from the quotation list page displayed on the user terminal, and information on the selected delivery quotation can be transmitted to the server.

In step 220, the server may create a work page for the delivery quotation selected by the worker and provide it to the worker's user terminal. Work on the delivery quotation may include inspecting the information of one or more items included in the delivery quotation, entering the reviewed information into the user terminal and transmitting it to the server, and generating identification information for selling the item on the server. You can. On the work page, workers can perform tasks such as inspecting duplicates of items included in the delivery quotation, inspecting images, inspecting catalogs, inspecting legal elements, and editing images.

In one embodiment, the work page may include a first page including a list of items included in the selected delivery estimate, and a second page for working on the item selected from the list of items. The work results on the first page and the second page may be reflected and displayed in real time on the second page and the first page, respectively. The first page may include information on one quotation that the worker is currently working on and a list of one or more items included in the quotation that the worker is currently working on. The list of items may include various item-related information, including whether the item is approved or rejected, image, brand, barcode, etc. The worker may select one item from a list of one or more items displayed on the first page, and the server may provide a second page for working on the one selected item. For example, if the order of the representative image and detailed images of the first item is changed through an image editing operation on the second page, the order of the representative image and detailed image of the first item is also changed on the item list on the first page. Likewise, the work results of the second page may be reflected in real time on the item list of the first page. In this way, the work page for the list of items included in the quotation and the work page for each individual item included in the list are separated, and the work results on each page are configured to be reflected in real time on other pages, allowing workers to work on the delivery quotation. Work can be performed more efficiently.

Referring to FIG. 4A, the work page 400 for the delivery quotation selected by the worker includes an area 410 that displays information about the delivery quotation selected by the worker and memos transmitted and received between a plurality of workers performing work on the delivery quotation. It may include an area 420 for displaying information and an area 430 for displaying a list of items included in the delivery quotation selected by the worker.

Referring to Figure 4b, an area 410 that displays information about the delivery quotation selected by the worker is shown. Area 410 may include information about the ID of the delivery quotation selected by the worker, priority, number of items included in the quotation, parent quotation and separate quotation, company that supplied the quotation, BM in charge, registration date, etc. A separate quotation may include a quotation composed of one or more items included in the delivery quotation that are rejected by the operator for a specific reason. In this case, the delivery quotation may be referred to as the parent quotation of the separate quotation. In one embodiment, area 410 may display the time a worker began working on the current delivery estimate.

Referring to FIG. 4C, an area 420 is shown that displays memo information transmitted and received between a plurality of workers performing work on the delivery quotation selected by the worker. In one embodiment, the server may obtain a memo associated with one inspection task among a plurality of tasks for a delivery quotation and display it in the area 420. Area 420 may include information about the task for which the memo was obtained, the worker who created the memo, the task to which the memo will be delivered, comments included in the memo, and the date on which the memo was created. As shown in FIG. 4C, the comment included in the memo may include a message written directly by a worker associated with one task among a plurality of tasks to be delivered to a worker associated with another task, or the number of contacts with the company, It may contain preset standardized information, such as the number of image modifications, the number of SKU name modifications, etc. The server can record and store a quantified history related to a task by having workers associated with a specific task input standardized information. That is, the memo may include not only unstructured memos but also structured memos for data extraction and analysis (for example, hashtag strings, etc.). In this way, a memo created by a worker associated with one task may be displayed on the area 420 displayed on the terminal of the worker associated with another task to which the memo is to be delivered.

Referring to FIG. 4D, an area 430 is shown that displays a list of items included in the delivery quotation selected by the worker. The area 430 may include information such as an item number, SKU name, representative and detailed image, brand, item name, barcode, etc., along with an area 431 for indicating approval or rejection of each item included in the list. The worker can input whether to approve or reject the sale of the item as a result of the inspection of each item in area 431, and if a rejection is entered, the worker can also select the reason for the rejection. In one embodiment, the server may separate a sub-quotation consisting of rejected items from among the items included in the delivery quotation selected by the worker. For example, reasons for rejecting an item may include cases where the item overlaps with an item already registered on the e-commerce service server, cases where information on the item included in the quotation is different from information on the actual item, etc. The reason for rejection can be selected by the operator through a drop-down menu when rejecting an item.

In one embodiment, the server may collect items with the same reason for rejection among the items included in the separated sub-quotation and create and manage another sub-quotation. In this way, by creating and managing sub-quotations composed of items with the same reason for rejection, the server can enable workers to more efficiently perform work on the rejected quotations.

In one embodiment, the list of items displayed in area 430 includes information about the attributes of the item included in the selected delivery quote, and the attributes of the item include the item's number, SKU name, representative and detailed image, and brand. May contain information. If the first item and the second item in the list of items have the same properties, the properties of the second item may be overridden by the properties of the first item that have already been entered, and the overriding may be done by using the first item on the list of items. 1 This can be performed through a drag input corresponding to the attribute of the item. For example, a case may be considered where the attributes of a plurality of items included in a delivery quotation are the same except for the color. In this case, it would be advantageous for the worker to override the attributes of one item included in the delivery quotation, excluding color, with the attributes of another item. In other words, the worker completes the task of inspecting and entering information about one item, overrides the information about the one item for other items, and changes only the color information for each other item, thereby eliminating unnecessary It can effectively reduce the effort and time required for inspection and input work, and reduce mistakes that may occur during inspection and input work. In this case, overriding can be conveniently and intuitively performed through a drag input corresponding to the attribute of one item on a list of items, and this can improve user experience.

Referring again to FIG. 4A, in one embodiment, the worker may reassign some of the delivery estimates to other workers among the delivery estimates assigned to him (e.g., due to personal reasons (e.g., leaving early), work difficulty, etc. You can. For example, a worker may request the server to reassign a delivery quote being worked on on the page 400 to another worker by clicking on the object 440 on the page 400. Object 440 may include a reassignment button. When reassigning a delivery quotation, workers can search for a specific worker by searching their name or ID, and can also check the current status (on/off) of the searched worker. In this way, the server can increase the worker's work efficiency and improve user experience by providing an interface through which workers or managers can easily reassign already assigned delivery quotes to other workers. In one embodiment, a worker may select some items from the item list displayed in the area 430 and reallocate only some of the selected items to another worker.

Referring again to FIG. 2, in step 225, the worker's user terminal may obtain the worker's input corresponding to the work page and transmit it to the server. The worker can inspect the information of the item included in the delivery quotation selected by the worker on the work page displayed on the user terminal and enter the information of the item for which the inspection has been completed.

In step 230, the server may generate identification information associated with the item corresponding to the selected delivery quotation based on information on the selected delivery quotation and the input of the worker corresponding to the work page. In one embodiment, the identification information associated with the item may include an item-specific SKU ID that is generated to sell the item on an e-commerce server.

In one embodiment, generating identification information associated with an item includes the server generating initial information associated with the item corresponding to the selected delivery quotation based on information in the selected delivery quotation, and the worker based on the initial information. It may include obtaining input for modified information associated with the item corresponding to the selected delivery quotation from and, based on the input modified information, generating identification information associated with the item corresponding to the selected delivery quotation. . The server can extract data about the item by reading the information on the item listed in the delivery quote selected by the worker for the work, and generate initial information based on the extracted data and provide it to the worker. Workers can perform inspection work on the generated initial information and modify the initial information based on the inspection work. The worker enters modified information that modifies the initial information into the work page, and the server can generate a SKU ID as identification information for selling the item based on the entered modified information. In this way, the server basically creates initial information based on the item information listed in the delivery quotation provided by the item supplier, obtains the revised information through the worker's inspection work, and generates identification information for selling the item. , it is possible to prevent incorrect information about items from being listed or missing some information on e-commerce pages, and to more effectively provide information about items for sale to customers. When work has been completed on all items included in a delivery quotation, the next delivery quotation can be automatically uploaded to the work page.

In one embodiment, the inspection task for the initial information may include a plurality of inspection operations for items corresponding to the delivery quotation, and the plurality of inspection operations may include a first inspection operation associated with image inspection and duplicate inspection; a second inspection operation associated with at least one of product name, attribute, and catalog information; Third-party inspection tasks related to at least one of legal elements and notification information; and a fourth inspection task related to image editing.

In one embodiment, the first inspection task is a basic information check step, such as whether representative and detailed images of the item are properly included, whether the size of the image meets the specified standard, and whether the item is previously stored on the e-commerce server. This may include checking whether or not it is a duplicate of a registered item.

In one embodiment, the second inspection task may include inspecting at least one of the product name, attributes, and catalog information of the item. The second inspection task may further include inspecting the brand information of the item. For example, the second inspection task may include inspecting and modifying the product name and exposed attributes displayed on the page displaying detailed information of the item of the e-commerce page.

In one embodiment, the third inspection operation may include a product compliance operation (PCO) associated with the legal elements and notice information for the items for sale, and the legal elements and notice information for the items listed in the quote. This may include checking whether it matches the facts, whether it complies with sales regulations, and whether there are no false or exaggerated advertising statements.

In one embodiment, the fourth inspection task may include editing the image of the item to be displayed on a page displaying detailed information about the product or a page displaying search results for the product, etc. based on the first to third inspection tasks. You can. For example, the fourth proofreading task is to edit representative and detailed images to fit the catalog guide, and to remove specific phrases (e.g., false hype text) from the images according to requests from the first to third proofreading tasks. This may include deleting .

In one embodiment, the server may obtain a memo associated with one inspection task among a plurality of inspection tasks and deliver the memo to the terminal of a worker associated with another inspection task among the plurality of inspection tasks based on recipient information included in the memo. there is. Through such memos, requests can be conveniently sent and received between workers performing each inspection task, and work efficiency can be increased. In this case, the area 420 of FIG. 4C described above can be utilized.

Referring to FIG. 5, an exemplary page 500 is shown for generating a sub-quotation by separating rejected items from among a plurality of items included in one delivery quotation.

In one embodiment, the delivery quotation includes information on a plurality of items, and the server may generate a sub-quotation containing information on an item rejected by the worker among the plurality of items, and deliver the sub-quotation to the item supplier. For example, during the inspection process for each item included in the delivery quotation, for some items, the information on the item listed in the quotation is different from the information on the actual item, an incorrect image is attached, or the item is already being sold through e-commerce. In cases where the problem cannot be resolved by simply modifying item information by workers, such as overlapping cases, it may be necessary to reject the delivery quotation and notify the item supplier with the reason for the rejection. In this case, if the entire quotation is rejected without separating the quotations, sales of items approved without grounds for rejection among multiple items included in the quotation may also be delayed. Therefore, among the plurality of items included in the delivery quotation, approved items and rejected items are separated, and a sub-quotation containing information on the rejected item is separately created and provided to the item supplier along with the reason for rejection, so that the approved item is You can quickly create identification information for sale and manage rejected items efficiently. Once the quotation separation work is completed, work on the next delivery quotation can begin immediately.

In one embodiment, the sub-quote includes information about the reason for the rejection of the rejected item, and the server obtains a revised quotation corresponding to the sub-quote from the item supplier and creates a revised quotation based on the information about the reason for the rejection. Can be assigned to workers. The information regarding the reason for rejection may include information about the inspection task for which the reason for rejection was discovered among multiple inspection tasks for the item, and the revised quotation will be delivered to the terminal of the worker performing the inspection task for which the reason for rejection was discovered. You can.

In one embodiment, the server may decide to drop the rejected delivery quotation if there is no response to the rejected delivery quotation from the item supplier for a certain period of time. In one embodiment, the certain period of time may be determined based on at least one of the number of rejected items, the item supplier's item sales history, and the reason for rejection. The server can efficiently manage a large amount of delivery quotations by adaptively determining the certain period of time according to the reason for the item's rejection, the item supplier, etc., and discarding the rejected delivery quotations after the certain period has elapsed.

In one embodiment, when a sub-quote created separately from a delivery quote is modified by an item supplier and assigned to a worker, and all items included in the modified sub-quote are approved and identifying information for sale is generated, the server Items included in the delivery quotation (i.e., parent quotation) before the sub-quotation is separated and items included in the sub-quotation can be grouped and managed. Since the items included in the parent quotation and the sub-quotation may have relatively similar properties, the efficiency of item management can be increased by later integrating and managing the items included in the parent quotation and the sub-quotation.

Referring to FIG. 6, worker A performing one inspection task among a plurality of inspection tasks for an item included in a delivery quotation may discover an error that occurred in a previous inspection task. A quotation that has errors discovered and must be returned to the previous inspection stage is hereinafter referred to as gathering. When worker A discovers a gather, it can assign it to a helper. Helpers may include managers or managers who manage and supervise the inspection of delivery estimates. The helper checks whether there are actual errors in the gathering discovered by worker A, and if there are no actual errors, it can be assigned back to worker A. If it is confirmed by the helper that there is an actual error, the helper can reject the delivery quotation and assign the gathering to worker B of the previous inspection operation where the error occurred. Meanwhile, in Figure 6, when worker A discovers a gather, it is shown that it is assigned to a helper. However, this is only an example, and worker A does not assign the gather to the helper, but immediately rejects the gather, and then returns to the previous inspection where an error occurred. Gathering can be assigned to worker B of the task. Worker B from the previous inspection task who was assigned the gather can complete the task of correcting the error and then reassign the delivery estimate to Worker A who discovered the gather. In Figure 6, after worker B completes the task of correcting the error, it is shown that the delivery quotation is reassigned to worker A, but this is only an example, and worker B performs the inspection task in which an error is found among a plurality of inspection tasks. Delivery estimates can be assigned not only to workers but also to workers in other inspection tasks.

Referring to FIG. 7 , a page 700 is shown for a worker who discovers gathering to perform a process of returning the quotation to a previous inspection job in which an error occurred. In one embodiment, the server may obtain rejection information associated with a specific inspection task among a plurality of inspection tasks, and the rejection information may include a rejected delivery quotation and information about inspection tasks performed before the specific inspection task. . For example, when the above-described first to fourth inspection operations are sequentially performed on items included in the delivery quotation, the worker performing the third inspection operation recognizes that an incorrect inspection was performed in the first inspection operation, The delivery quotation can be sent back to the first inspection operation. In the example shown in FIG. 7 , the worker can input an inspection task (BIC) in which an inspection error occurred and a quotation to be returned (“PCO_test_10”) on page 700. In one embodiment, the worker can input whether to request confirmation of the gather from the helper and whether to immediately assign the gather to the previous worker through the page 700.

In one embodiment, the worker associated with an inspection task performed prior to a particular inspection task may actually be the worker who performed the incorrect inspection in the previous inspection task. In one embodiment, the worker associated with an inspection task performed prior to a particular inspection task may actually be the worker selected by the worker who discovered the gathering, if the worker who performed the incorrect inspection in the previous inspection task is unable to perform the current inspection task. You can. For example, the worker who discovered the gathering can search for and enter the worker (“AA”) who will perform the inspection task on the rejected delivery quotation on page 700. In one embodiment, the server may recommend a worker to perform inspection work on the rejected delivery quotation on the page 700 based on the worker's work history. In one embodiment, in a list displaying search results for workers, the availability of each worker may be displayed on the list.
