First, when the raw material A is weighed in the container 100-1 with the measurement detail number "1111", the correspondence as shown on the leftmost side of FIG. 7 is stored in the database 400. In this correspondence, the worker who performs the compounding work puts the raw material A into the container 100-1, and when the work process of the measurement specification number “1111” is completed, the information necessary for the work process is input. It is stored in the database 400 with the end input as a trigger. This end input also includes a work in which an operator reads the mark 200-1 given to the container 100-1 by using the communication device 300. The identification information of the mark 200-1 read by the communication device 300 and the input information are transmitted from the communication device 300 to the update unit 500, and the update unit 500 updates the database 400 based on the transmitted information. ..

Subsequently, when the raw material B is weighed in the container 100-2 with the measurement specification number “2222”, the correspondence as shown in the second from the left in FIG. 7 is stored in the database 400. In this correspondence, the worker who performs the compounding work puts the raw material B into the container 100-2, and when the work process of the measurement specification number “2222” is completed, inputs the information necessary for the work process. It is stored in the database 400 with the end input as a trigger. This end input also includes the work of the operator reading the mark 200-2 given to the container 100-2 using the communication device 300. The identification information of the mark 200-2 read by the communication device 300 and the input information are transmitted from the communication device 300 to the update unit 500, and the update unit 500 updates the database 400 based on the transmitted information. ..

Subsequently, according to the instruction of the manufacturing instruction number "3333" that the intermediate product C is prepared from the raw material A charged in the container 100-1 and the raw material B charged in the container 100-2, the container 100-1 The operator reads the mark 200-1 given to the container 100-2 by using the communication device 300, the communication device 300 transmits the identification information of the mark 200-1 to the update unit 500, and the mark 200- attached to the container 100-2. 2 is read by an operator using the communication device 300, and the communication device 300 transmits the identification information of the mark 200-2 to the update unit 500. Then, the correspondence between the container 100-1 and the container 100-2 in the database 400 becomes an empty correspondence as shown in the second from the right in FIG. 7. At this time, the worker puts the raw material A charged in the container 100-1 and the raw material B charged in the container 100-2 into the manufacturing machine.

After that, the intermediate product C prepared by the manufacturing machine is put into the container 100-3, the operator reads the mark 200-3 given to the container 100-3 by using the communication device 300, and the communication device 300 reads the mark 200. When the identification information of -3 is transmitted to the update unit 500 and the worker inputs the end input necessary for the work process, the update unit 500 updates the correspondence of the container 100-3 in the database 400. .. With this update, the correspondence of the container 100-3 becomes the correspondence that the manufacturing order number, the serial number, the item CD, and the contents are present, as shown on the far right of FIG.

In this way, the operator causes the communication device 300 to read the mark given to the container, the communication device 300 transmits the identification information of the read mark to the update unit 500, and the operator at the end of the work process. The update unit 500, which has received the identification information and the information indicating the end input according to the end input input to the communication device 300, updates the database 400 according to the information. Therefore, even in a work process in which the materials used as parts and control conditions change in the manufacturing process, it is possible to easily manage the materials and work-in-process after the work, and the progress of the work is stored in the database. It can be managed by 400 items such as item CDs and the status of contents.
