Description

Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a production / sales management system for managing production and sales of various articles.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, in each industry or individual company, when carrying out a normal corporate activity of manufacturing a unique product and selling the manufactured product, generally, a sales and sales department is in charge. , The extent to which a given product produced by the company can be sold or must be sold in a given period, such as a short-term, medium-term, or long-term period. The sales target and the appropriate inventory quantity that should be secured at all times are determined, and the result is used as sales plan information and the production department of the company is notified.

On the other hand, the production department which has received the information makes a production plan of the article on a daily, weekly, monthly, seasonal or yearly basis based on the sales plan information, that is, a daily plan. Short-term, medium-term, corresponding to sales plan, such as weekly plan, monthly plan, seasonal plan, or annual plan.
A long-term production plan will be drawn up and put into practice.

At that time, the sales department has a plurality of departments, and each department independently sells the same product and the same product type, and the essential parts of the product are almost the same. For example, each department produces products with some differences in shape, color, or accessories.
If they are sold individually, there is a risk that the sales plan will be complicated and the contents will not be unified.

On the other hand, the production department is often unfamiliar with the situation of the sales department, and therefore, it is almost the case that the production plan of the product concerned is made up entirely depending on the sales plan which has been contacted. Is. Therefore, for example, when a production factory has a plurality of production lines, or when factories manufacturing the same or similar products are dispersed in different regions, the same production type or alternative production can be used. Inefficient and inefficient operation of producing products of the same variety in different factories while it is more efficient to produce different types of products or to produce them in the same production plant. There were many dangers of going there.

[0006] Furthermore, since the communication between the sales department and the production department is insufficient, for example, if the inventory information is not accurately included in the sales plan, a plurality of sales of the same product are sold. There are departments, and in one department,
If a request is made to the production department to increase the production of the product due to the fact that the product is out of stock in a short period of time, the sales performance will not increase in another department and therefore the inventory will be planned. When the number exceeds the number, it is possible that the excess inventory is accommodated to the department in which the inventory is exhausted, thereby eliminating the need for extra production. However, if such information is not disclosed to a third party, extra production will be carried out, and eventually inventory will be overstocked, leading to an increase in selling costs.

[0007] In general, such a sales plan is made, and based on the sales plan, which production variety, at what time, including the allowance for raw materials, and at what factory and in what amount, what amount? It is extremely important to judge whether or not to manufacture, that is, to determine the optimum condition, that is, whether the manufacturing can be performed under the conditions of being efficient and minimizing the manufacturing cost. However, since it requires a lot of experience and judgment, not everyone can easily and quickly determine such sales and production plans. Therefore,
There is a problem that it takes time because it takes a considerable amount of time for a skilled person to create it.

In order to solve such a problem, in recent years, a computer has been introduced, and the work of the above-mentioned part requiring the knowledge of the expert has been put into practical use in the direction of mechanization and automation, but it is still complete. A complete production and sales management system has not been completed, and a considerable part, that is, a working part that requires the judgment and experience of a skilled person, is still in the existing state.

[0009]
