Further, the delivery form proposing device 1 may have other numerical value conversion tables in addition to (a) to (e), and an addition value can be set for each.

  Next, movements related to the processing units shown in FIG. 1 of the delivery form proposing device 1 will be described with reference to FIGS. 13 and 14. 13 and 14 are flowcharts of the delivery form proposing process.

  The receiving unit 112 of the delivery form proposing device 1 receives the designation of the product ID from the customer terminal device 2 (S1). The information storage unit 12 stores the received product ID as an order product ID in the order product ID 1462 of the order information DB 146. The information storage unit 12 generates an order number and stores the generated order number in the order number 1461 in association with the order product ID in the order information DB 146.

  When the customer orders a plurality of products, the receiving unit 112 receives a plurality of product IDs from the customer terminal device 2. Then, the information storage unit 12 stores a plurality of order product IDs in association with the generated order number. On the other hand, when a plurality of product IDs are ordered, the number information may be newly stored, or the same order product ID may be stored in the order product ID 1462.

  In addition, the delivery form proposal apparatus 1 shall use the conventional online shopping technique until it receives the product ID. That is, the customer selects a product from the products displayed on the screen of the customer terminal device 2.

  Subsequently, the screen creation unit 15 creates a delivery destination information input screen. Then, the transmission unit 111 transmits a delivery destination information input screen to the customer terminal device 2 (S2).

  The delivery destination information input screen is a screen requesting input of a delivery destination name, delivery destination age, delivery destination gender, delivery destination address, and delivery destination vehicle possession status. The delivery destination information is information including the delivery destination name, delivery destination age, delivery destination gender, delivery destination address, and delivery destination vehicle possession status. Moreover, it is good also as requesting the input of the information regarding a customer in a delivery destination information input screen. Here, the customer and the delivery destination person may be the same person or different persons.

  Then, the receiving unit 112 receives the delivery destination information transmitted from the customer terminal device 2 (S3). Then, the information storage unit 12 stores the delivery destination information in the delivery destination information DB 145 in association with the order number generated in S1.

  That is, the information storage unit 12 stores the delivery destination name included in the delivery destination information in the delivery destination name 1452, stores the delivery destination age in the delivery destination age 1453, and stores the delivery destination gender in the delivery destination gender 1454. The delivery address is stored in the delivery address 1455, and the delivery vehicle possession status is stored in the delivery vehicle possession status 1475.

  The customer does not necessarily have to input information other than the delivery destination name and delivery address. In that case, each item of the delivery destination information DB 145 corresponding to the information that has not been input is blank. Further, the information storage unit 12 may specify a district number based on the delivery destination address 1455 and store it in the district number 1456 of the delivery destination information DB 145.

  Subsequently, the ease calculation unit 13 calculates the ease based on the order product ID and the delivery destination information (S4). Details will be described later.

  The screen creation unit 15 sequentially reads records having the same order number from the determination result information DB 147 (S5). Then, the screen creation unit 15 determines whether the ease included in the record exceeds the easy-to-receive threshold (S6).

  The easy-to-receive threshold is a value for determining that it is easy for the delivery destination person to receive the product at the receiving store when the ease exceeds the easy-to-receive threshold. The easy-reception threshold is stored in a storage unit (not shown).

  If it is determined that the ease exceeds the easy-to-receive threshold (YES in S6), the screen creation unit 15 determines to display the contents of the record read in S5 on the delivery form proposal screen as a recommended delivery form ( S7). The recommended delivery form is a delivery form that the delivery form proposing device 1 determines to be recommended among a plurality of delivery forms.

  If it is determined that the ease does not exceed the easy-to-receive threshold (NO in S6), the screen creation unit 15 determines not to display the content of the record read in S5 on the delivery form proposal screen as a recommended delivery form ( S8).

  Subsequently, the screen creation unit 15 determines whether or not determination processing has been executed for all records having the same order number in the determination result DB 147 (S9). When the processing is completed for all the records (S9 YES), the image creating unit 15 proceeds to S10 in FIG. If the process has not been completed for all records (NO in S9), the process returns to S5.

  Subsequently, the delivery form proposing device 1 advances the processing to S10 in FIG. The screen creation unit 15 creates a delivery form proposal screen based on the determination result DB 147 (S10). Details of the delivery form proposal screen will be described later.

  And the transmission part 111 transmits the delivery form proposal screen to the customer terminal device 2 (S11). And the receiving part 112 receives selection of the delivery form from the customer terminal device 2 (S12). The delivery form is information on whether the delivery destination goes to a store where the product can be received (hereinafter referred to as store receipt) or whether the delivery company delivers to the delivery address (hereinafter referred to as complete delivery). It is. Furthermore, information on which delivery company the customer requests delivery of the product is also included.

  This is the end of the delivery form proposal process. The delivery form proposing device 1 further performs processing for requesting the delivery company to deliver the product in the delivery form received in S12 using the conventional technique.

  Next, the movements associated with the processing units shown in FIG. 1 of the delivery form proposing device 1 in the S4 ease calculation process of FIG. 13 will be described with reference to FIG. FIG. 15 is a flowchart of ease calculation processing.

  First, the ease calculation unit 13 refers to the product information DB 143 and the order information DB 146, and calculates the total weight of the ordered product (S41). And the ease calculation part 13 stores the calculated total weight in the total weight 1463 of the order information DB146.

  For example, when calculating the total weight for the order number “10001”, the ease calculation unit 13 searches the product information DB 143 using the order product ID “coat 1” existing in the order product ID 1462 as a key. Then, the ease calculation unit 13 acquires the product weight “1 kg” corresponding to the product ID “coat 1”. Furthermore, the ease calculation unit 13 similarly obtains the product weight “1.8 kg” for the order product ID “shoes 4”.

  Then, the ease calculation unit 13 stores a value “2.8 kg” obtained by adding all the acquired product weights in the total weight 1463 of the order information DB 146.

  Subsequently, the ease calculation unit 13 refers to the product information DB 143 and the order information DB 146 to calculate the total size of the ordered products (S42). And the ease calculation part 13 stores the calculated total size in the total size 1464 of the order information DB 146.

  For example, when calculating the total size for the order number “10001”, the ease calculation unit 13 searches the product information DB 143 using the order product ID “coat 1” existing in the order product ID 1462 as a key. And the ease calculation part 13 acquires product size "50x30x20" applicable to product ID "coat 1". Furthermore, the ease calculation unit 13 similarly obtains the product size “50 × 40 × 20” for the order product ID “shoes 4”.

  The ease calculation unit 13 specifies the maximum value “50” regarding the freshness among the product sizes obtained. Then, the ease calculation unit 13 stores the newly identified value “50” in the total size 1464 of the order information DB 146.

  Furthermore, the ease calculation part 13 specifies the maximum value “40” regarding the width among the product sizes obtained. Then, the ease calculation unit 13 stores the specified value “40” in the total size 1464 of the order information DB 146.

  Furthermore, the ease calculation part 13 adds all the values of height among the product size which earned, and calculates the height value "40". Then, the ease calculation unit 13 stores the calculated height value “40” in the total size 1464 of the order information DB 146. Through the above processing, “50 × 40 × 40” is stored in the total size 1464 of the order information DB 146.

  In addition, when a plurality of products are delivered, the total size is calculated when the products are set to be stacked in the height direction and packed. The present invention is not limited to this, and the delivery method proposing process of the present invention can employ a total size calculation method according to the packing method.

  Subsequently, the ease determination unit 13 refers to the packaging material information DB 144 and the order information DB 146 to determine the used packaging material size (S43). And the ease calculation part 13 stores in the used packing material size 1465 of order information DB146.

  For example, when the used packing material size is determined for the order number “10001”, the ease calculation unit 13 uses the packing size information 1443 of the packing material information DB 144 based on the vertical information “50” of the total size. refer. Then, search is made for ready-to-pack information that allows “X = 50”. Then, the packing material IDs “cardboard 1”, “cardboard 2”, “cardboard 3”, and “cardboard 4” corresponding to the searched packability information are specified. At this time, the ease calculation unit 13 may set a flag in association with the packing material ID that can be packed.

  The degree-of-easiness calculation unit 13 identifies a packaging material that allows the horizontal size information “40” of the total size among the packaging material IDs identified based on the vertical information. That is, here, the packing material IDs “cardboard 1”, “cardboard 2”, “cardboard 3”, and “cardboard 4” are specified.

  Similarly, the ease calculation part 13 specifies the packaging material which accept | permits the height information "40" of total size among the packaging material ID specified based on the width information. That is, the packing material IDs “cardboard 2”, “cardboard 3”, and “cardboard 4” are specified. Further, the ease determination unit 13 refers to the packaging material information DB 144 and determines the packaging material ID “cardboard 2” having the smallest volume among the identified packaging material IDs as the used packaging material.

  Then, the ease calculation unit 13 stores the packaging material size “60 × 50 × 50” of the packaging material ID “Cardboard 2” in the used packaging material size 1465 of the order information DB 146.

  Subsequently, the ease determination unit 13 refers to the merchandise provider information DB 142 and reads out a designated delivery company. Then, a record in which the order number is associated with each of the readable delivery companies that can be specified is created in the determination result information DB 147. (S44).

  For example, the ease determination unit 13 refers to the merchandise provider information DB 142 to read out the designated delivery companies “A”, “B”, and “C”. Then, a record in which the order number “10001” is associated with the delivery company “A” is created in the determination result information DB 147. Records for delivery company “B” and delivery company “C” are created in the same manner.

  Subsequently, the ease calculation unit 13 sequentially reads records from the determination result information DB 147 (S45). The ease calculating unit 13 refers to the receiving store information DB 141 and the delivery destination information DB 145, and specifies the receiving store closest to the delivery address among the receiving stores of the delivery company ID included in the record (S46). .

  And the ease calculation part 13 stores identified receiving store ID in the nearest receiving store ID 1473 of determination result information DB147. In that case, the ease calculation part 13 may specify the nearest receiving store with reference to the map information storage part which is not illustrated. Further, the nearest receiving store may be specified based on the district number.

  Further, the distance between the specified nearest receiving store and the delivery address is calculated (S46). And the ease calculation part 13 stores in the receiving distance 1474 of determination result information DB147.

  For example, the ease calculation unit 13 reads the record of the delivery company ID “A” (S45). And the ease calculation part 13 specifies the receiving store nearest to the delivery address “Chuo-ku Chuo-ku 1-5-5” among the receiving stores of the delivery company ID “A” (S46). Here, it is assumed that the receiving store ID “A001” is specified. The ease calculation unit 13 stores “A001” in the nearest receiving store ID 1473 corresponding to the delivery company ID “A” in the determination result information DB 147.

  Next, the easiness calculation unit 13 determines the location of the address “2-1-1 1-1 Chuo-ku, Kawasaki-shi” of the receiving store ID “A001” specified as the nearest receiving store, and the delivery address “Chuo-ku 1 Kawasaki-shi”. The distance to the point “chome 3-5” is calculated (S48). Here, it is assumed that the receiving distance “0.5” is calculated. Then, the ease calculation unit 13 stores “0.5” in the reception distance 1474 of the determination result information DB 147.

  Subsequently, the ease calculation unit 13 refers to the delivery destination information DB 145, the order information DB 146, and the numerical value conversion table 148, and calculates the ease for each record (S48). And the ease calculation part 13 stores the calculated ease in the ease 1475 of determination result information DB147.

  For example, the ease calculation unit 13 refers to the reception distance numerical value conversion table 1481 and specifies a distance range “0.5 ≦ X <1” including the reception distance “0.5” of the read record. The ease calculator 13 adds the added value “0.7” corresponding to the identified distance range to the ease.

  Next, the ease calculation unit 13 searches the delivery destination information DB 145 using the order number as a key, and acquires the delivery destination age. Then, the ease calculation unit 13 refers to the age value conversion table 1482 and specifies an age range “12 ≦ X <40” including the delivery destination age “30”. And the ease calculation part 13 adds addition value "1" corresponding to the specified age range to ease.

  Next, the ease calculation unit 13 searches the order information DB 146 using the order number as a key, and acquires the used packaging material size. Then, the ease calculation unit 13 refers to the packing material numerical value conversion table 1483 and adds the added value “0.5” corresponding to the used packing material size “60 × 50 × 50” to the ease.

  Next, the ease calculation unit 13 searches the order information DB 146 using the order number as a key, and acquires the total weight. Then, the ease calculation unit 13 refers to the total weight numerical value conversion table 1484 and specifies the total weight range “0 ≦ X <3” including the total weight “2.8”. And the ease calculation part 13 adds addition value "1" corresponding to the specified total weight range to ease.

  Next, the ease calculation unit 13 searches the delivery destination information DB 145 using the order number as a key, and acquires the delivery destination vehicle possession status. Then, the ease calculation unit 13 refers to the vehicle possession situation numerical value conversion table 1485 and adds the added value “1” corresponding to the delivery destination vehicle situation “present” to the ease.

  By the above processing, the ease becomes “4.2”. And the ease calculation part 13 stores "4.2" in the ease of the record used as the process target of judgment result information DB147. The order of the numerical value conversion table 148 to be referred to is not limited to the above, and can be changed.

  Subsequently, the ease calculation unit 13 determines whether or not the processing is completed for all the records having the same order number in the determination result DB 147 (S49). If the process is completed for all records (YES in S49), the process ends. If the processing has not been completed for all records (NO in S49), the process returns to S45.

  For example, in S <b> 45, it is assumed that the ease calculation unit 13 reads the record of the delivery company ID “B” corresponding to the order number “10001”. Since S46 and S47 are the same as the processing for the record of the delivery company ID “A”, description thereof is omitted. Also regarding S48, the ease calculation unit 13 may execute the same processing, but may be changed as follows.

  For example, only the addition value acquired from the reception distance numerical value conversion table 1481 differs for each delivery company ID. Therefore, the ease calculation unit 13 performs the age value conversion table 1482, the packing material size value conversion table 1483, the total weight value conversion table 1484, and the vehicle possession state value in the ease calculation process in the first read record. The added value acquired from the conversion table 1485 is temporarily stored in the storage unit.

  Then, the ease calculation processing for the second and subsequent records calculates the ease of other delivery companies based on the addition value existing in the storage unit and the addition value acquired from the reception distance numerical value conversion table 1481. It is also good to do.

  Here, returning to FIG. 13, the processing after the ease calculation processing will be described using an example. Assume that the ease for each delivery company is calculated by the ease calculation processing (S41 to S49) as shown in FIG. It is assumed that the easy reception threshold is set to “3.7”.

  For example, the screen creation unit 15 reads a record corresponding to the delivery company ID “A” from the determination result information DB 147 (S5). Then, the screen creation unit 15 determines that the record ease “4.2” exceeds the easy receive threshold “3.7” (S6 YES).

  Next, the screen creation unit 15 determines to display the content of the record of the delivery company ID “A” on the delivery form proposal screen as a recommended delivery form (S7). Then, the screen creation unit 15 determines that processing has not been completed for all records having the same order number “10001” in the determination result DB 147 (S9 NO). Therefore, the process returns to S5.

  The same processing is performed for the record corresponding to the delivery company ID “B” in the determination result information DB 147. Since the ease “4.0” exceeds the easy-to-receive threshold “3.7” (S6 YES), the screen creation unit 15 delivers the contents of the record of the delivery company ID “B” as the recommended delivery form. It is determined to be displayed on the form proposal screen (S7).

  On the other hand, since the ease “3.5” of the delivery company ID “C” does not exceed the easy reception threshold “3.7” (S6 NO), the screen creation unit 15 records the record corresponding to the delivery company ID “C”. Is not displayed as a recommended delivery form on the delivery form proposal screen (S8).

Subsequently, the screen creation unit 15 creates a delivery form proposal screen based on the determination result DB 147 (S10).
With the configuration described above, the delivery form proposing device 1 can determine a recommended delivery form according to the status of the delivery destination, the size of the delivery product, and the like. Then, the delivery form proposing device 1 can provide the customer terminal device 2 with information related to the recommended delivery form. Therefore, the customer can appropriately determine a preferable delivery form for the person of the delivery destination based on the provided information.

  Next, the delivery form proposal screen will be described with reference to FIGS. 16 and 17. 16 and 17 are examples of a delivery form proposal screen.

  First, FIG. 16 is an example of the delivery form proposal screen 6 in the case where there is a record having a degree of ease exceeding the easy-to-receive threshold in S6 of FIG.

  When there is a record having a degree of ease exceeding the easy-to-receive threshold, the delivery form proposal screen 6 includes product information 61, information that stores are recommended, and complete delivery is possible. Information 63.

  The delivery form proposal screen 6 may include a part of these pieces of information, and the necessary information in the embodiment may be appropriately displayed.

  The product information 61 is information including the total weight of the product to be delivered, the size of the packing material for packing the product to be delivered, and the name and image of the product.

  The information 62 indicating that store reception is recommended is information indicating that store reception is recommended because it is easy for the delivery destination person to receive the product at the reception store.

  The information 62 indicating that store reception is recommended includes a delivery company 622, a nearest receiving store 623, a distance 624 to the nearest receiving store, a delivery fee 625, and a selection check box 626. Also good.

  The screen creation unit 15 refers to the determination result information DB 147 and displays the delivery company ID of the record having the degree of ease exceeding the easy reception threshold on the delivery company 622 on the delivery form proposal screen. Here, only the delivery company of the record whose ease exceeds the easy-to-receive threshold is displayed.

  The screen creation unit 15 refers to the determination result information DB 147 and displays the nearest receiving store ID of the record having the degree of ease exceeding the easy receiving threshold at the nearest receiving store 623 on the delivery form proposal screen. At that time, the screen creation unit 15 may display the address of each nearest receiving store in association with the nearest receiving store 623.

  The screen creation unit 15 refers to the determination result information DB 147 and displays the reception distance of the record having the degree of ease exceeding the easy reception threshold at the distance 624 to the nearest reception store on the delivery form proposal screen.

  Further, the screen creation unit 15 may calculate a delivery fee based on the delivery address of the product, the delivery address, the size of the product, and the like, and display the delivery fee on the delivery fee 625. The delivery fee calculation process is performed using conventional technology.

  Further, the screen creation unit 15 provides a selection check box 626 on the delivery form proposal screen. The selection check box is an item for receiving an input of selection of a delivery form from a customer who operates the customer terminal device 2.

  Furthermore, when the ease of a plurality of records out of the records of the determination result information DB 147 exceeds the easy-to-receive threshold, the screen creation unit 15 determines the result in order from the delivery company ID corresponding to the record with the greater ease. Should be displayed. For example, information 62 indicating that store reception is recommended may be provided with a recommendation rank 621 item. When there is only one delivery company that exceeds the easy-to-receive threshold, the screen creation unit 15 may omit the item of recommendation order.

  Information 63 indicating that complete delivery is possible is information indicating that the product can also be delivered to the address of the delivery destination.

  The information 63 indicating that complete delivery is also possible may include a delivery company 632, a delivery fee 633, and a selection check box 634. Further, a recommendation order 631 may be provided and displayed in order from a delivery company with a lower delivery charge. When there is only one delivery company that can be specified, the screen creation unit 15 may omit the item of recommendation order.

  Since the delivery company 632 has the same contents as the delivery company 622 of the information 62 indicating that the store reception is recommended, the description is omitted. Since the delivery company 633 has the same content as the delivery fee 625 of the information 62 indicating that the store reception is recommended, the explanation is omitted. Since the selection check box 634 has the same contents as the selection check box 626 of the information 62 indicating that the store reception is recommended, the description thereof will be omitted.

  As described above, when the delivery form proposing device 1 determines that it is easy to receive the store of the product, the delivery form proposing screen 6 can propose that the store reception is recommended. Therefore, the customer who has seen the delivery form proposal screen 6 can select an appropriate delivery form in consideration of the situation of the delivery destination.

  On the other hand, FIG. 17 is an example of the delivery form proposal screen 7 when the ease of all records does not exceed the easy-to-receive threshold in S6 of FIG.

  If there is no record having an ease exceeding the easy-to-receive threshold, the delivery form proposal screen 7 can receive product information 71, information 72 indicating that complete delivery is recommended, and store receipt. Information 73 to that effect.

  The delivery form proposal screen 7 may include some of these pieces of information, and may display necessary information in the embodiment as appropriate.

  The merchandise information 71 is the same as the merchandise information 61 of FIG.

  Information 72 indicating that complete delivery is recommended is information indicating that complete delivery is recommended because it is determined by the delivery form proposing device 1 that store reception is not easy for the person at the delivery destination.

  The information 72 indicating that complete delivery is recommended includes a delivery company 722, a delivery fee 723, and a selection check box 724. Further, a recommendation order 721 may be provided and displayed in order from the delivery company with the lowest delivery fee. Since it is the same as the information 63 indicating that the complete delivery is also possible in FIG.

  Information 73 indicating that the store can be received is information indicating that the delivery destination of the product can also go to the store to receive the product.

  The information 73 indicating that the store can be received includes a delivery company 732, a nearest receiving store 733, a distance 734 to the nearest receiving store, a delivery fee 735, and a selection check box 736. Also good.

  Furthermore, it is good also as providing from the delivery trader who provides the recommendation order 731 and the distance to the nearest receiving store is near. When there is only one delivery company that can be specified, the screen creation unit 15 omits the item of the recommendation order 731.

  Further, when there is no record having the degree of ease exceeding the easy-to-receive threshold, only the product information 71 and the information 72 indicating that complete delivery is recommended are displayed on the delivery form proposal screen 7. It is also good. That is, the screen creation unit 15 creates a delivery form proposal screen that does not include information related to store receipt.

As described above, when the delivery form proposing device 1 determines that it is not easy to receive the product in the store, the delivery form proposal screen 7 can suggest that the complete delivery is recommended. Therefore, the customer who has seen the delivery form proposal screen 7 can select an appropriate delivery form in consideration of the situation of the delivery destination.
With the configuration as described above, the delivery form proposing device 1 can determine a delivery form recommended for a delivery destination person based on information on a delivery destination, information on a delivery product, and the like. And the delivery form proposal apparatus can transmit the information regarding a recommended delivery form to a customer terminal device.
