As shown in FIG. 1, a sales system 1 includes a POS system 7 including a plurality of POS (Point Of Sales) terminals 2 and a store server 4 that centrally manages each POS terminal 2 by connecting the POS terminals 2 via a LAN 3. And a headquarter server 9 for connecting the store server 4 via a dedicated line 8.

  The POS system 7 and the headquarter server 9 will be briefly described. The store server 4 has a product master file for storing various product information sold in the store and is responsible for the overall control of the POS system 7, and is connected to a keyboard, a display device, a printer, a hard disk drive, and the like. (Both not shown).

  The POS terminal 2 is allocated at a checkout location with a unique cash register number, and is a terminal for the cashier to perform sales processing. The POS terminal 2 is connected with a keyboard, drawer, display, card reader / writer, code scanner, and the like. When the POS terminal 2 reads a product code added to each product in the form of a barcode, a two-dimensional code, or the like by a code scanner, the POS terminal 2 makes an inquiry about the product by notifying the store server 4 of the product code. The store server 4 searches the product master file in response to an inquiry from the POS terminal 2, reads product information corresponding to the corresponding product code, and transmits it to the POS terminal 2. The POS terminal 2 acquires the unit price of the corresponding product from the store server 4. In addition, the POS terminal 2 calculates the total amount of these products based on the unit price and the number of products to be purchased, performs a process such as payment, generates sales data, and then stores the sales data at a predetermined timing. It transmits to the store server 4.

  The headquarter server 9 includes a control unit (not shown) having a computer configuration including a CPU (Central Processing Unit), a ROM (Read Only Memory), a RAM (Random Access Memory), and the like. The sales data transmitted from 4 is managed, or the product master file is transmitted to the store server 4 of each store.

  Further, the sales system 1 includes a net super server 6 as shown in FIG. The net super server 6 can be connected from the customer terminal 10 via the network 5.

  The net super server 6 is a server device for providing a net super service for selling products sold in a store where the POS system 7 is installed via the network 5 such as the Internet. The net super server 6 includes an electrical system as shown in FIG.

  FIG. 2 is a diagram showing the configuration of the net super server 6. As shown in FIG. 2, the net super server 6 includes a control unit 21 having a computer configuration including a CPU, a ROM, a RAM, and the like, a bus 22, a first communication interface 231, a second communication interface 232, an I / O device control unit 24.

  The control unit 21 is configured to be able to execute communication with each device connected to the LAN 3 via the first communication interface 231. The control unit 21 is configured to be able to execute communication with the customer terminal 10 connected to the network 5 via the second communication interface 232. In addition, an operation input unit 25, a display unit 26, and a storage unit 27 are connected to the control unit 21 via a bus 22 and an I / O device control unit 24.

  The storage unit 27 is a storage device such as an HDD or a flash memory, and stores various programs (for example, a Web application, a database program, etc.) executed by the control unit 21 and various setting information related to the execution of the programs. The control unit 21 provides a network super service to the customer terminal 10 by cooperating with a predetermined program stored in the storage unit 27. Further, the control unit 21 realizes various functional units (calculation unit 211, provision unit 212, identification unit 213, privilege grant unit 214, etc.) by cooperating with a predetermined program stored in the storage unit 27. Various types of information processing are executed.

  In addition, the storage unit 27 stores a member management file 271, an order management file 272, a delivery flight management file 273, and the like as data necessary for providing the Internet super service.

  The member management file 271 is a data table for managing information related to net supermarket users (members). FIG. 3 is a diagram schematically illustrating an example of the member management file 271. As shown in FIG. 3, the member management file 271 holds a record in which a member ID, name, address, mail address, and the like are associated.

  The member ID is an identifier for identifying each member, and a unique ID is assigned to each member. The name is the name of each member. The address is an address of a home or the like registered in advance by each member as a delivery destination. The e-mail address indicates the transmission destination in the e-mail of each member.

  The order management file 272 is a data table for managing (holding) a list of products for which orders have been confirmed (ordered product list) by the control unit 21. FIG. 4 is a diagram schematically illustrating an example of the order management file 272. As shown in FIG. 4, the order management file 272 holds records that associate member IDs, flight numbers, box numbers, sequence numbers, product codes, product names, privilege details, and the like.

  Here, the member ID corresponds to the member ID of the member management file 271 and stores the member ID of the member who made the order. The flight number is an identifier for identifying a delivery flight for delivering a product, and products having the same flight number are delivered by the same flight. The box number is an identifier for identifying a storage box that stores a product for delivery. The product purchased (ordered) by the online supermarket, that is, the product code (product name) registered in the order management file 272 is stored in the storage box indicated by the box number and delivered to the customer who made the order. The It is assumed that a unique box number is assigned in advance to each storage box in the form of a code symbol such as a barcode or a two-dimensional code. The sequence number is a management number sequentially assigned to each product having the same flight number.

  The privilege content stores information indicating the content (for example, free shipping) of the privilege applied to the product ordered in the order management file 272.

  The delivery flight management file 273 is a data table for managing the delivery date and time corresponding to each flight number. FIG. 5 is a schematic diagram illustrating an example of the delivery service management file 273. As shown in FIG. 5, the delivery flight management file 273 holds a delivery date, delivery time, deadline time, determination time, and the like in association with the flight number.

  The delivery date and delivery time represent the date and time zone for delivering the product. The deadline time represents the time when order acceptance for the corresponding flight number is closed. The determination time represents the start time of first information processing described later, and is set to a predetermined time (for example, 30 minutes) before the delivery time. Note that the control unit 21 deletes the delivery flight record whose deadline has passed from the delivery flight management file 273 based on the current date and time counted by a timekeeping unit such as an RTC (Real Time Clock) (not shown).

  Returning to FIG. 1, the customer terminal 10 is a terminal device such as a personal computer (PC) or a mobile phone operated by a customer (member) of the Internet supermarket. The customer terminal 10 can be connected to a control unit composed of a CPU, ROM, RAM, etc., an input device such as a keyboard and various buttons, a display device such as a CRT and an LCD, a storage device such as an HDD and a flash memory, and a network 5 A communication interface or the like (not shown) is provided, and various functions are realized by the control unit executing a predetermined program (for example, a Web browser) stored in the storage device.

  In addition, the store is provided with a packing device (not shown) used for packing work for sorting products for which the corresponding products are collected from the store according to the ordered product list for each customer.

  Here, an example of an operation until a product is purchased (ordered) at the internet supermarket will be described.

  First, the control unit of the customer terminal 10 (hereinafter simply referred to as the customer terminal 10) accesses the address of the EC site provided by the net super server 6 in accordance with a user operation. When the control unit of the net super server 6 (hereinafter simply referred to as the net super server 6) receives access from the customer terminal 10, the EC site that sells products based on a program or the like stored in a storage unit (not shown) An initial page is generated and transmitted to the customer terminal 10.

  The customer terminal 10 displays an initial page (not shown) provided from the net super server 6 on a display unit (not shown) and waits for a user operation input. It is assumed that the user of the customer terminal 10 inputs a member ID when accessing the net super server 6. Further, the control unit of the net super server 6 specifies the user (member) of the customer terminal 10 from the input member ID based on the member management file 271.

  When the customer terminal 10 detects that a specific product category (for example, vegetable) has been selected by the user from a plurality of product categories displayed on the initial page, the customer terminal 10 determines the category name or category ID of the selected product category. Notify the net super server 6.

  When the control unit 21 of the net super server 6 receives the selection notification of the category name or category ID from the customer terminal 10, the control unit 21 refers to the product master file stored in the store server 4 and records corresponding to the category name or category ID. Is read. And the control part 21 of the net super server 6 will transmit to the customer terminal 10, if the goods purchase page for receiving a purchase order is produced | generated based on each read record. The customer terminal 10 displays the product purchase page provided from the net super server 6 on a display unit (not shown) and waits for a user operation input.

  FIG. 6 is a diagram illustrating an example of a product purchase page. As shown in FIG. 6, the product purchase page displays a purchase screen G1 for purchasing the product read from the product master file.

  Each time the customer terminal 10 receives a press of the purchase button B1 provided on the purchase screen G1 via a keyboard, mouse, or the like (not shown), the product code, category, and purchase quantity of the corresponding product are used as purchase targets. The server 6 is notified. When the customer terminal 10 receives an instruction to the effect that the product selection has been completed via a keyboard or a mouse (not shown), the customer terminal 10 notifies the net super server 6 of the completion of the selection.

  Next, when receiving the notification of selection completion from the customer terminal 10, the control unit 21 of the net super server 6 generates a delivery date and time designation page for accepting designation of delivery date and time based on the delivery flight management file 273, Send to customer terminal 10. The customer terminal 10 displays the delivery date / time designation page provided from the net super server 6 on a display unit (not shown) and waits for a user's operation input.

  FIG. 7 is a diagram illustrating an example of a delivery date / time designation page. As shown in FIG. 7, the delivery date and time designation page area A1 is configured such that the delivery date and time corresponding to each flight number held in the delivery flight management file 273 can be selected. When the customer terminal 10 accepts that a specific delivery date and time has been selected via a keyboard or a mouse (not shown), the customer terminal 10 notifies the network super server 6 of the selected delivery date and time.

  When receiving the delivery date / time notification from the customer terminal 10, the control unit 21 of the net super server 6 notifies the purchaser of the address of the user (member) who placed the order and the flight number corresponding to the delivery date / time. An order merchandise list in which the merchandise code of each merchandise is associated is generated. Thereby, the control part 21 sets the order goods which received the order from the member to the delivery object of the delivery flight designated by the said member.

  The control unit 21 of the net super server 6 sequentially stores the flight number and product code included in the ordered product list in the order management file 272 in the record format shown in FIG. The box number is assigned for each product according to the order product list and the type and quantity of the product included in the ordered product list. Sequence numbers are assigned in the order of storage in the order management file 272 for the same flight number.

  After that, the POS system 7 picks up the products for which the order has been received by the delivery flight deadline based on the delivery flight management file 273 from the store and delivers them to the member's home by a delivery flight such as a truck.

  By the way, in the order reception described above, there is a case where the order quantity of the product received by the deadline time is less than the load capacity (maximum load capacity) that can be loaded by the delivery service. In such a case, the delivery service is inefficient because it is delivered with an empty space left.

  Therefore, in the net super server 6 of this embodiment, processing for promoting the use of the net super is executed according to the delivery fee of the delivery flight. Hereinafter, processing executed by the net super server 6 will be described.

  The control unit 21 of the net super server 6 cooperates with the program stored in the storage unit 27 to perform various function units (calculation unit 211, providing unit 212, specifying unit 213, and privilege granting unit 214 shown in FIG. Etc.) and a part of the first information processing and the second information processing is executed.

  Here, FIG. 8 is a flowchart showing the flow of the first information processing executed by the net super server 6. This process is performed in the background of the above-described order receiving operation (net super service).

  First, the control unit 21 of the net super server 6 waits until the current time reaches the determination time for the delivery flights of each flight number stored in the delivery flight management file 273 (step S11; No). When the determination time of any delivery flight is reached (step S11; Yes), the control unit 21 (calculation unit 211) subtracts the product amount delivered by the delivery flight from the maximum load amount of the delivery flight, A surplus load amount indicating a surplus load amount (empty space) when the order product is loaded is calculated (step S12). Hereinafter, a delivery flight that has reached the determination time is referred to as a target delivery flight.

  Here, the comparison method between the maximum load amount and the product amount is not particularly limited, and the comparison may be made in units of boxes for storing products. For example, what is necessary is just to compare the quantity of the box (box number) scheduled to be delivered by the target delivery flight (flight number) and the maximum load capacity of the boxes that can be delivered by the delivery vehicle of the target delivery flight. It is assumed that the maximum load capacity of boxes that can be delivered by one delivery vehicle is predetermined. Further, when delivery is performed by a plurality of delivery vehicles, comparison is made with the sum of the maximum loading capacity of each delivery vehicle.

  After calculating the surplus load capacity, the control unit 21 of the net super server 6 determines whether the value is positive or negative (step S13). When it is determined that the surplus load amount is a negative value (step S13; No), the control unit 21 of the net super server 6 changes the setting of the delivery vehicle so as to satisfy the surplus load amount (step S14), and the process proceeds to step S12. Return again. The setting change of the delivery vehicle includes, for example, increasing the number of delivery vehicles corresponding to the number of surplus loading capacity or changing to a delivery vehicle having a larger maximum loading capacity. In step S12 after recursion, the surplus load capacity is calculated based on the maximum load capacity of the delivery vehicle after the setting change.

  If it is determined in step S13 that the value of the extra load capacity is a positive value (including zero) (step S13; Yes), the control unit 21 of the net super server 6 determines whether the extra load capacity is equal to or greater than a predetermined threshold value. It is determined whether or not (step S15). When the surplus load amount is less than the threshold (step S15; No), the control unit 21 ends this process.

  On the other hand, when the surplus load amount is equal to or greater than the threshold (step S15; Yes), the control unit 21 (identifying means 213) uses the order management file to obtain the member ID of the member who ordered the product delivered by the target delivery flight (flight number). It specifies from 272 (step S16). Subsequently, the control unit 21 (specifying unit 213) reads the address associated with the member ID specified in step S16 from the member management file 271 (step S17).

  Next, the control unit 21 (identifying means 213) identifies the member ID of another member (hereinafter referred to as a target member) having an address in the same area as the address read in Step S17 from the member management file 271 (Step S21). S18).

  Here, the range of “same area” is not particularly limited. For example, another member having an address in the same housing complex (a condominium, an apartment, etc.) as the member specified in step S16 may be specified as the target member. In addition, another member having an address in the same town as the member specified in step S18 may be specified as the target member.

  Subsequently, the control unit 21 (privilege grant unit 214) sets the identified member ID of the target member as a target for granting a privilege such as free shipping (step S19).

  Here, the privilege to be set is preferably limited to the time until the deadline of the target delivery flight (flight number) (time service). Moreover, it is preferable to limit the number of the target members who can actually enjoy the privilege to the number of persons (or the number of boxes) according to the surplus load capacity of the target delivery flight (flight number). For example, when the surplus load capacity is 10 boxes, the control unit 21 of the net super server 6 estimates the number of boxes per order per person as one box, thereby determining the number of persons (privileged persons) who will actually grant a privilege. 10 people.

  Then, the control unit 21 (providing means 212) provides the target member (member ID) with advertisement information for urging a product order on the target delivery flight (step S20), and ends this process.

  Here, the method of providing advertisement information is not particularly limited, and may be provided in a pull type or a push type. For example, as described later, when the target member (member ID) accesses the net super server 6, advertisement information may be provided on the product purchase page or the like (pull type). Further, the advertisement information may be transmitted by e-mail to a mail address associated with the member ID of the target member (push type).

  Further, the content of the advertisement information is not particularly limited. For example, you may include the information regarding the privilege content provided to an object member, such as the above-mentioned time service and privilege provision number. Further, information for advertising a specific product, a URL for accessing the net super server 6, and the like may be included.

  Next, the second information processing executed by the net super server 6 will be described. FIG. 9 is a flowchart showing a flow of second information processing executed by the net super server 6. This process is performed in the background of the net super service after the privilege grant target is set in the first information processing described above.

  First, the control unit 21 of the net super server 6 determines whether or not the current time has reached the deadline time of the corresponding delivery flight (flight number). When it determines with having reached the deadline time (step S31; Yes), the control part 21 transfers to step S40.

  On the other hand, when it determines with not having reached the deadline time (step S31; No), the control part 21 determines whether access was received from the customer terminal 10 which an object member operates (step S32). If there is no access from the target member (step S32; No), the process returns to step S31.

  On the other hand, when accepting access from the target member (step S32; Yes), the control unit 21 (providing means 212) generates a product purchase page including advertisement information (step S33) and transmits it to the customer terminal 10. (Step S34). Thereby, on the customer terminal 10, a product purchase page including advertisement information is displayed on the display unit.

  Here, FIG. 10 is a diagram illustrating an example of a product purchase page including advertisement information. As shown in FIG. 10, advertisement information is displayed in area A2 of the product purchase page. Here, the example which displayed the information which shows privilege content (free shipping) as advertisement information is shown. Further, as conditions for granting the privilege, the remaining time until the order is completed, the remaining number of people who can enjoy the privilege, and designation information for designating the target delivery flight (flight number) are displayed. The remaining time is a time obtained from the difference between the deadline of the target delivery flight and the current time. The remaining number corresponds to the current number of remaining benefits.

  A member (target member) who operates the customer terminal 10 browses the product purchase page (advertisement information), so that the member himself / herself is eligible for the privilege grant, the end time of the time service, and the remaining number of people who can enjoy the privilege. Etc. Then, the target member can enjoy the privilege by requesting delivery of the ordered product by the instructed delivery flight when the remaining number of benefits is 1 or more within the time of the time service.

  Returning to FIG. 9, the control unit 21 waits until an order for a product is received from the target member (step S35; No). When an order for a product is received (step S35; Yes), the control unit 21 (privilege grant means 214) determines whether or not this order satisfies the privilege grant conditions (step S36). In the determination in step S36, it is determined that the time is within the time of the time service, the privilege remaining number is 1 or more, and the specified delivery flight is set.

  When the control unit 21 (privilege grant means 214) determines that the conditions for granting the bonus are satisfied (step S36; Yes), it generates an order product list in which the breakdown of the order is shown and the bonus is set. (Step S37). Next, the control unit 21 (privilege grant means 214) subtracts 1 from the value of the current privilege remaining number (step S38), and proceeds to step S40.

  On the other hand, if it is determined that the conditions for granting the privilege are not satisfied (step S36; No), the control unit 21 generates an order merchandise list indicating the breakdown of the order and processes it as a normal order (step S39). The process proceeds to S40. In addition, when it determines with not satisfy | filling the conditions of privilege provision, it is good also as a form which transmits the information for confirming that to the customer terminal 10. FIG.

  Subsequently, the control unit 21 determines whether or not the privilege remaining number is zero (step S40). When it is determined that the privilege remaining number is not zero (step S40; No), the process returns to step S31 again. Moreover, when it determines with the privilege remaining number being zero (step S40; Yes), it transfers to step S41.

  In step S41, the control unit 21 cancels the setting for granting benefits to the target member (step S41). And the control part 21 is controlled so that an order may be received also with respect to an object member with a normal net super service by complete | finishing this process. In addition, it is good also as a form which notifies an object member via e-mail, a goods purchase page, etc. that privilege provision was complete | finished after completion | finish of this process.

  As described above, according to the present embodiment, when the surplus load amount of a delivery flight is equal to or greater than a threshold value, advertisement information that prompts delivery designation for the delivery flight is provided to the member. In addition, as advertisement information, an advertisement indicating that a predetermined privilege is given on the condition that a delivery flight whose surplus load capacity is equal to or greater than a threshold is specified is provided to the member. As a result, the use of the net supermarket can be promoted according to the load capacity of the delivery flight, so that the surplus load capacity (empty space) of the delivery flight can be reduced.

  In addition, according to the present embodiment, the advertisement information is provided to other members who have addresses in the same area as the member who has specified delivery on a delivery flight whose surplus load is greater than or equal to the threshold. Thereby, since the area which a delivery flight delivers can be concentrated, the delivery efficiency by the said delivery flight can be improved. In addition, according to the present embodiment, the privilege grant target can be limited to the number of members corresponding to the surplus load capacity, so the delivery flight can be specified within a range not exceeding the maximum load capacity of the delivery flight. Orders for finished products can be accepted.

  As mentioned above, although embodiment of this invention was described, this embodiment is shown as an example and is not intending limiting the range of invention. The embodiments of the present invention can be implemented in various other forms, and various omissions, replacements, and changes can be made without departing from the spirit of the invention.
