[background of invention]
In the middle of the global economy of today, the logistics running between the world is used widely to satisfy the different demand of all parts of the world to different commodity.For example, the purchaser who is in first ground can send demand information to the supplier who is in second ground, and the supplier sends commodity according to these demand informations then, and entrusts the common carrier of being engaged in transhipment that commodity are transported to the specified delivery point of purchaser.
The logistics running in the whole world has surmounted country and geographical boundary line, and its whole process is exactly a process by informational linkage, and extremely important role has been played the part of in time being delivered in the efficient operation of logistics of information.
For example, a certain commodity of purchaser's demand when first ground, as the hard disk of computing machine, and the supplier of this kind hard disk is positioned at second ground, and at first, the purchaser needs to send a demand information to the supplier, and traditional mode is phone or fax.When the supplier receives this demand information, just to the purchaser specified destination of transporting according to these Information Provider's product and contact carrier, the transmission of information is still based on traditional approachs such as phone or faxes therebetween.
Yet, utilize traditional modes such as phone or fax to come transmission information, not only cost of idleness (mostly is transnational border greatly, cost is very high), and information not necessarily can be communicated in related personnel's the hand in time sometimes, thereby causes the delay of time, makes that efficiency of information transfer greatly reduces in the logistics progress, to cause whole logistics progress to ease up, incured loss through delay supply of material opportunity.
Along with developing rapidly of Global Internet, people can use computer network that logistics progress is implemented monitoring.Yet, existing technology is mainly at being issued to from material in the logistics progress and transports destination this section implementation monitoring to, and, each participant in the logistics progress need download or buy specific software, process is more loaded down with trivial details, and the technology of this respect is representative with the cargo tracking software systems of Federal Express and U.S. associating mailbag service company (UPS).Thereby need a kind of method can allow each participant in the logistics progress participate in logistics progress very expediently, again can be between each participant apace the transmitter stream information in real time logistics progress is implemented to monitor.
[summary of the invention]
At above-mentioned the deficiencies in the prior art, the invention provides a kind of method of logistics management, the security mechanism of its establishment distributes different authorities to them with each participant's of logistics different function, and utilizes this kind authority to limit the access of each participant to logistics information.
A kind of foundation provided by the invention commodity distribution control method on the internet can be by a kind of real-time mode transmission information between each participant in logistics progress, and set up the required each other relevant information of each logistics participant.A kind of like this commodity distribution control method can be by setting up an open web station system on network, give then each logistics participant distribute certain access rights only make it can access websites on relative content realize.
In the present invention, establish a logistic management system on the internet, this system is provided with a login window, only allows the logistics participant with authority to enter this system by this login window.The logon name and the password that are adopted when logining according to each logistics participant, system can confirm each logistics participant's authority, distributes its visit field and modification field automatically according to each participant's authority then in follow-up action implementation.Each logistics participant operates the information that is produced and can automatically link in a kind of real-time mode when storage in the shared zone in extent of competence separately, this shared region can be for other relevant logistics participant visit, so just can reach the real-time transmission of information and the purpose of reception, the non-shared information that is produced then only is to be stored in to consult for it in its authority territory, other logistics participant then can't access to the content of this part.So both can reach the purpose that information transmits in real time, the sensitive information between the two logistics participants is not got a glimpse of by the third party.
Because the present invention has adopted an open system, thereby each participant in the logistics progress, no matter be that purchaser, supplier or acknowledgement of consignment commercial city can participate in logistics progress very expediently, and utilize the authority of distributing to each participant, can make each participant transmit the relevant various information of logistics in a kind of orderly, real-time mode, thereby reach a kind of purpose of real-time monitoring logistics progress, to guarantee finishing smoothly of logistics progress.
[embodiment explanation]
Generally speaking, a simple logistics progress can relate to the three parts: send material side, acknowledgement of consignment material side and receive material side.Above-mentioned three parts corresponds to a material procurement process, is supplier, common carrier and purchaser.In the middle of adoption process, general all is to follow following process: at first the purchaser formulates MRP according to own demand to a certain commodity, and send relevant supplier to by fax or other mode, the supplier arranges shipping and relevant information is passed to purchaser and common carrier in the mode of fax or Email according to MRP then, and common carrier then is responsible for the material of being carried is delivered in consignee's the hand afterwards.In order to make this adoption process on time, unimpededly finish, must coordinate above-mentioned three parts's logistics operation, in order to reach this purpose, just must transmit the various information in the logistics progress timely.But traditional mode of intelligence transmission is the cost costliness not only, and can make too much the process complicated delay of time that consequently causes that becomes owing to relate to personnel.
Commodity distribution control method of the present invention is a logistic management system is provided on the internet, different participants distributes authority in the logistics progress by giving then, allow concrete operation participant operate from this system of network visit, thereby information can be reached in the very first time in related personnel's the hand, realize the timely transmission of information with this.
With reference to shown in Figure 1, it is a function mode synoptic diagram of the present invention.The present invention operates on the internet, purchaser, supplier and the common carrier that is scattered in all parts of the world so just can be respectively utilizes different terminating machine (not shown)s to visit same logistic management system 100 on the internet in residing position separately, thereby carries out information interchange.For example, a kind of specific computer memory device of purchaser's 110 demands when the Asia, such as hard disk, and the supplier 120 of this kind hard disk is positioned at America, then the purchaser 110 in Asia can be put into this material procurement list on the network system of the present invention then at the material procurement list that edits the material that will purchase on the terminating machine in Asia in its authority 111.120 of suppliers in America can receive this buying order in real time in its authority 121, examine errorless after, just set about arranging the transportation of material.Similarly, supplier 120 can send entrusted information to common carrier 130 by the terminating machine of his present position on network system of the present invention, the network system that common carrier 130 can see through on the internet in its residing position in its authority 131 in real time receives the shipping entrusted information that supplier 120 is sent, and the transportation of arrangement material is until sending to purchaser 110 places.Each participant in the above-mentioned logistics progress and the message exchange of network system all are to realize in the extent of competence under it.In extent of competence separately, each participant can handle also simultaneously that some are only own required and needn't disclosed information except can handling the relevant information that will exchange each other.
If logistics operation only is to carry out a bigger enterprises, also the present invention's system can be placed among the Intranet framework.
In the present embodiment, be that to be with a purchaser that the center is described of the present invention.For a purchaser, he will face can not have only a supplier, but according to purchasing merchandise classification different a plurality of suppliers is arranged, even same class commodity also can face the situation that a plurality of suppliers are arranged.Similarly, the common carrier of realizing merchandise transfer between purchaser and supplier also exists a plurality of situations, a purchaser inside, also may exist independent situations about purchasing, thereby form a plurality of " little purchasers " even owing to department is different.
Please refer to shown in Figure 2, it is the process flow diagram that the supplier that can get in touch in the commodity distribution control method of the present invention participates in logistics progress, with the adoption process is example, under the situation that has formed a kind of fixing buying chain, the purchaser must seek other supplier to enlarge the source of goods in addition owing to the continuous increase to former material demand now.Through a certain family or a few supplier of family are carried out certain investigation and checking (step 210), affirmation such as product quality and delivery ability etc., if it is required to assert that it meets the requirements, just authorize the authority (step 220) that realizes correlation function according to its function classification (being supply) to it in this example, this correlation function comprises with other logistics participant's exchange message and foundation provides information etc. for oneself.The supplier can obtain a logon name and a login password (step 240) of logining the present invention's logistic management system when obtaining relevant function privilege (step 230).Similarly, if since the increase of movement capacity demand also need verify the ability of the common carrier that can get in touch earlier, distribute authority and corresponding logon name and password to it after determining.Other logistics participant participates in the situation of a certain logistics progress and can analogize according to this.Have authority, the logistics participant who has logon name and password in other words just can participate directly in logistics progress.By login (step 250), the supplier just can enter into the present invention's logistic management system to carry out relevant task (step 260), and it executes relevant a series of lists that task produced finally can generate form (step 270).
With reference to Fig. 3, shown is a logistics participant login window 300, and it provides the operation window that an inlet is allowed for each logistics participant access entitlements scope.When a certain logistics participant will enter system when finishing a certain task, just can utilize the logon name and the password that are had to enter from this login window.In an embodiment, logistics participant login window 300 includes a logon name frame 310 and a password box 320.In the present embodiment, logon name and password promptly define logistics participant's authority.When the logistics participant of the certain authority of tool logon name that it had and password are input to corresponding hurdle and click login key 330 after, this login window can automatically identify its identity according to its logon name and password, and provides the path of access control window (not shown) for it.
Shown in Figure 4 is the interior access path control group 400 of purchaser's extent of competence of commodity distribution control method of the present invention.In the present embodiment, access path control group 400 includes four module: (1) material tracing process module 410; (2) supplier's module 420; (3) the common carrier module 430; (4) Reports module 440.And each module includes different path control group.In the present embodiment, purchaser's (not shown) just can be hyperlinked in the operation window interface of realizing inter-related task by clicking the hurdle, path of the realization objectives that listed below each module.As in material tracing process module 410, the purchaser can visit: (1) material procurement list hurdle 411 is to formulate the material procurement list; (2) shipping order ticket hurdle 412 is to inquire about announced shipping order ticket; (3) departure confirmation form hurdle 413 is to inquire about announced departure confirmation form.Similarly, in supplier's module 420, the purchaser can visit: which supplier the supplier hurdle 421 that (1) can be got in touch has the product that is fit to own company can be provided to understand in the world; (2) obtained the supplier hurdle 422 of checking to determine that under the present circumstances which supplier being arranged is being that our company provides product; (3) supplier's who has obtained checking contact person and this contact person's contact method can be inquired about in supplier contact person hurdle 423.In common carrier module 430, the purchaser can visit: (1) initial common carrier hurdle 431; (2) initial common carrier contact person hurdle 432; (3) common carrier hurdle 433 in the middle of; (4) common carrier contact person hurdle 434 in the middle of.And in form control module 440, the purchaser only possesses visit: (1) prints material procurement list hurdle 441; (2) the list of suppliers hurdle 442; (3) print shipping booking note hurdle 443; (4) print departure confirmation form hurdle 444 and (5) material and follow the trail of report group 445.Other visit hurdle does not then show in current control group, illustrates that the purchaser does not have the authority on these hurdles of visit.Suppose that the purchaser has clicked and obtain checking supplier hurdle 422, just can enter into operation window interface as shown in Figure 5.
Connect above-mentioned example, see also shown in Figure 5.Shown in this figure is that the obtaining of system that commodity distribution control method of the present invention provides verified supplier's window interface, in this operation window interface, the purchaser can import the code of material supplier value in code of material supplier frame 510, click " inquiry " button 511 then, the path that it can provide inquiry or revise supplier's information, if input error or other reason are wanted to re-enter, can realize by clicking " reseting " button 512.Also can directly click supplier's relevant in the list of suppliers frame 540 the path of code to obtain inquiry or to revise required supplier's information.Simultaneously, in the present embodiment, if the purchaser wishes to inquire about the supplier under its required specified conditions, also can be by clicking the path of " advanced inquiry " button 520 to obtain inquiry or to revise relevant supplier's information, add new supplier if desired, the purchaser can click " newly-built " button 530 and set up this supplier's information.
Consult Fig. 6, shown is in the middle of a material procurement process, a kind of flow process relation between purchaser 610, supplier 620 and the common carrier 630.After purchaser 610 has formulated a MRP (step 611), just be made into material procurement list (step 612) according to this MRP, then the material procurement list of making be put on the website under the logistic management system provided by the present invention (step 613).Above-mentioned process is to finish in purchaser 610 authority.The material procurement list that is put on the logistic management system affiliated web site can be stored in the resource sharing zone (step 614) automatically.At the relevant supplier 620 on another ground " extraction " this material procurement list (step 621) in this shared region in real time, the supplier 620 who receives the material procurement list can check (step 622) to this material procurement list earlier, then the material procurement list is confirmed (step 623) afterwards, if supplier 620 finds that these material procurement lists have doubtful point, also need and purchaser 610 consult further to obtain information (step 624) accurately.Otherwise, if supplier 620 confirms that these material procurement lists are accurate, then can organize shipping, and set about the shipping order ticket (step 625) preparing to be correlated with according to the message on the material procurement list.After ruing all well, the supplier then makes the shipping order ticket and it is placed on (step 626) on the logistic management system on network system of the present invention.The same process, the shipping order ticket can be stored in the resource sharing zone (step 627) automatically.Simultaneously, another ground common carrier can from this shared region in real time " extraction " to this shipping order ticket (step 631), and examine the information (step 632) that this shipping order ticket is provided, after arranging the material departure properly, common carrier can be made the departure confirmation form (step 633) of material according to this shipping order ticket, and it is put into (step 634) on the website, check or put on record for the logistics participant that authority is arranged.On the other hand, the required material of purchaser can be transported to designated destination (step 615).At last, whole logistics progress finishes (step 616).
Consulting shown in Figure 7ly, is a list process flow diagram of logistics progress of the present invention.After resources area 700 was created material procurement list (step 710) according to the demand information of material, the material procurement list had two flow directions: the one, and the operation window that is linked to the supplier is created the foundation of shipping order ticket (step 720) so that material to be provided as the supplier; Another flow direction is to generate material procurement list (step 711) in Reports module 440 automatically, and the content of this material procurement list and material procurement are single-phase together, and it mainly act as and generates form in the back to put on record.Equally, the shipping order ticket that the supplier creates also has two kinds of flow directions: the one, and the foundation that shipping is provided and creates departure confirmation form (step 730) to common carrier, also can generate shipping in addition automatically and entrust list (step 721) in Reports module 440, it also is to prepare for generating form that the effect of list is entrusted in shipping.The departure confirmation form that common carrier is created then only has a kind of flow direction: generate departure and confirm list (step 731).The various lists that generate in the said process are along with the increase of quantity, the resources area 700 that all can present to the buyer with the form (step 740) of form at last.Each logistics participant just can obtain various report messages by visit Reports module 440.
