  FIG. 6 shows a standard 10 displayed based on the standard data Ep. The standard data Ep can be created by inputting data of the seller Hs based on the standard format M registered in the server computer 2. For this reason, the server computer 2 is prepared in advance with a standard format M created by the administrator Hc. Therefore, if such a standard format M is used, a common standard format M can be used in various sales transactions, so that there is little variation, and there is an advantage that a standard of a certain level or more can be secured without excess or deficiency. There is.

  Further, the contents described in the standard data Ep must conform to the standard specified by the administrator Hc of the server computer 2. Therefore, as will be described later, as a result of the examination by the manager Hc, if it is determined that the non-conformity is found, it is not registered as the standard specification database De, and as a result, the linked food material data Ef is It will not be registered as the raw material database Dm. If the standard data Ep is made to conform to the standard specified by the administrator Hc of the server computer 2, a high-level standard based on the management of the administrator Hc can be secured. Reliability can be improved. As a result, the sales applicant Hs or the purchase applicant Hb can perform a sales transaction with confidence.

  As shown in FIG. 6, the standard data Ep (standard document 10) includes, from the top, an item H1 relating to the name of the food raw material R, an item H2 relating to the international certification standard, an item H3 relating to the blended raw materials, and H3. An input field is provided for an item H7 relating to specifications, an item H5 relating to raw material standards, an item H6 relating to nutritional component analysis results, and an item H7 relating to remarks columns such as product characteristics. Therefore, the standard document 10 (standard document data Ep) includes at least the management-related data Esc and the standard-related data Ese.

  In this case, the management-related data Esc can include at least one or more of the expiration date and / or expiration date, a method of displaying the expiration date and / or expiration date, a storage method, and a use standard. The item H4 related to the specification in (specification data Ep) corresponds.

As described above, if these standard-related data Ese are included in the standard 10 (standard-data data Ep), the standard-related data Ese of a certain item or more necessary for grasping the standard of the food raw material R can be obtained. Since it can be secured, it is possible to secure highly reliable standard document data Ep from the viewpoint of securing the types of standard items.

  On the other hand, it is desirable that the food material R include the food material R to be disposed of from the viewpoint of enhancing the effectiveness of the food material distribution support system 1. Food raw materials R to be discarded include, for example, a case where a part of the food raw materials R purchased for the development of new products is surplus, and a surplus occurs without reaching the original production number due to a difference in the expected number of sales. Various factors are assumed. Further, effective use is possible even when the expiration date is reached before the food material R is used up. There are fields where the food raw material R is not necessarily influenced by the expiration date depending on the field used. For example, in the production of livestock feed, pet food, and the like, there are purchase applicants Hb who desire a lower price than the expiration date. In this way, if the food raw material R, which is to be disposed of, is contained as the food raw material R, it is possible to effectively use the food product that is originally discarded, and from the viewpoint of ensuring the effectiveness of the food raw material distribution support system 1 There are advantages that can be implemented in the most desirable form (aspect).

  On the other hand, in the program area 4p, a computer program Pf for distribution support by application software that causes the food material distribution support system 1 according to the present embodiment to function is installed, in addition to a basic program for realizing a computer function. Thereby, the server computer 2 registers at least the sellers Hs... Who sell the food ingredients R and the food ingredients R (food ingredient data Ef including the specification data Ep. Various functions including a selling side registration function Fs, a purchase side registration function Fb for registering a purchase applicant Hb ... for purchasing the food raw material R, a report processing function Fr and a concierge function Fc, which will be described later, can be realized.

  Thereby, at least, if the server computer 2 is accessed from the client computer 3b of the buyer Hb and the food ingredient R based on the search information is selected from the food ingredient database Dm, the seller Hs who sells the food ingredient Rs To the client computer 3s based on the purchase request of the purchase applicant Hb. That is, the server computer 2 manages the databases Dm, Ds, and Db, and can perform a process of supporting distribution related to buying and selling of the food raw material R based on the distribution supporting computer program Pf.

  Next, an outline of a three-party relationship among the applicant for sale Hs, the manager Hc, and the applicant for purchase Hb in the food material distribution support system 1 according to the present embodiment will be described with reference to a time-series flow chart of a sales transaction shown in FIG. .

  In addition, when the sales applicant Hs and the purchase applicant Hb use the food raw material distribution support system 1, the members are registered in advance as described later in detail. Now, it is assumed that a seller Hs who wants to sell food ingredients R such as vegetables uses the food ingredient distribution support system 1. In this case, the seller Hs (client computer 3s) transmits information on the food ingredient R to the manager Hc (server computer 2) (step SA1). When the manager Hc receives the information on the food ingredient R, it registers it as the food ingredient database Dm (steps SA2 and SA3).

  On the other hand, it is assumed that a purchase applicant Hb who wants to purchase the food ingredient R uses the food ingredient distribution support system 1. In this case, the purchaser Hb (client computer 3b) accesses the server computer 2 (manager Hc) and searches the food raw material database Dm for a food raw material R desired to be purchased (step SA4). As a result, when a food ingredient R desired to be purchased is found, a transmission based on the purchase request is transmitted to the seller Hs related to the food ingredient R (step SA5). At this time, if necessary, a request for performing necessary confirmation, such as a request for a sample of the food raw material R and a request for an estimate, can be included (steps SA51 and SA52). On the other hand, upon receiving the transmission from the purchase applicant Hb, the seller Hs performs inventory confirmation and the like and returns an order acceptance (step SA6). At this time, in response to a request from the purchase applicant Hb, corresponding processing such as sending out a sample product and transmitting a quote is performed (steps SA61 and SA62).

  Then, the purchase applicant Hb performs necessary confirmation and the like, and when the purchase is finally decided, a reply to that effect is sent (step SA7). Upon receiving the reply from the purchase applicant Hb, the seller Hs makes final acceptance (step SA8). As a result, a sales transaction between the seller Hs and the buyer Hb is completed (step SA9). Thereafter, the purchase applicant Hb performs necessary payment processing, and the sale applicant Hs performs the corresponding food raw material R dispatch processing (steps SA10 and SA11). Thus, a series of sales transactions is completed.

  The server computer 2 has a report processing function Fr and a concierge function Fc.

  The server computer 2 (manager Hc) can continuously monitor (understand) the transaction status of the purchase applicant Hb and the sale applicant Hs, the registration status of the food ingredient R, and the like. Therefore, the server computer 2 has at least an analysis processing function of performing an analysis process based on registration information, a trend prediction processing function of predicting a future trend based on a result of the analysis process, a result of the analysis process, and / or a trend. The system includes one or more report processing functions Fr for transmitting a result of the prediction processing to the client computers 3s and 3b. The sales applicant Hs and the purchase applicant Hb can analyze the results of the analysis processing and the trend prediction. This can be referred to (steps SA12, SA13, SA14).

  If such a report processing function Fr is provided, based on the registered information, the trend of the food raw material R, for example, the current trend such as the distribution trend due to seasonal factors, the distribution trend of the food raw material R sold or purchased, etc. Since the relevant information can be reliably collected, the sales applicant Hs and the purchase applicant Hb can realize more accurate sales transactions by referring to the results of the analysis processing and the trend prediction. As a result, further advanced distribution support can be provided.

  Further, the manager Hc can continuously monitor (understand) the transaction status of the purchase applicant Hb and the sale applicant Hs, the registration status of the food ingredient R, and the like, so that the sale applicant Hs and the purchase applicant Hb In accordance with the request, the concierge function Fc can provide various advices and consultations including a method of utilizing the food material R (steps SA15, SA16, and SA17).

  Therefore, according to such a food material distribution support system 1, even if the food material R is not targeted for sale to general consumers or the food material R is to be discarded due to the expiration date, the present invention By using the food raw material distribution support system 1 according to the above, the food raw material R can be easily sold and easily purchased. Invited problems can be effectively reduced.

  In addition, the food raw material database Dm is provided with a standard data base De in which standard data Ep ... including at least management-related data Esc ... relating to at least management of the food raw material R and standard-related data Ese ... relating to standards are registered and linked. Since the standard document data Ep... Can be browsed and processed by selecting the applicant Hb from the client computer 3b, the quality of the food raw material R and the reliability of the sales transaction can be sufficiently ensured, and the sales transaction can be secured. It can be done with confidence.

  Next, a registration method (registration procedure) of the sale applicant Hs and the purchase applicant Hb when using the food ingredient distribution support system 1 according to the present embodiment will be described with reference to the flowchart shown in FIG.

  First, a person who wishes to register accesses the server computer 2 from the client computers 3s and 3b, and displays a Web site (homepage) screen provided according to the food ingredient distribution support system 1 on the display (Vd) of the client computers 3s and 3b. It is displayed (step S1).

  At this time, if the person who wants to register is the sale applicant Hs, the user selects the “Sale” tab based on the registration screen (not shown) displayed on the display (Vd), and enters the sale applicant registration form ( (Not shown) to input necessary information such as name (company name), address, business type, etc., and when all necessary information has been input, turn on the confirmation key and transmit (step S2). , S3).

  On the other hand, the manager Hc (server computer 2) examines the received information on the seller Hs and determines whether or not the information matches a certain registration criterion set by the manager Hc (step S4). Note that the registration criteria include individual criteria set by the manager Hc in addition to general criteria such as whether or not the seller Hs has a certain level of reliability. In particular, in the case of the present embodiment, as a registration criterion, only one of the applicant for sale Hs or the applicant for purchase Hb is limited, and a one-industry-one company system is adopted. The reason for this is that the purchaser Hb can browse the standard data Ep of the seller Hs, thereby avoiding information leakage such as product development trends to competitors. Although the individual registration criteria are shown as an example, such registration criteria can be arbitrarily set by the administrator Hc.

  Then, when the manager Hc determines that it is suitable, it registers with the information received as the sale applicant Hs (steps S5 and S6). That is, the server computer 2 additionally registers in the applicant for sale database Ds as the applicant for sale Hs data, and creates a my page of the applicant for sale Hs (step S7). On the other hand, when the manager Hc determines that the information is nonconforming, the reason for the nonconformity is notified. As a result, the seller Hs can make necessary corrections. Note that even if the registration criteria are not finally satisfied, there is a possibility of registration as a purchaser Hb. Therefore, if registration as a purchaser Hb is desired, the registration as a purchaser Hb to be described later is made. A registration step can be performed (steps S5, S2, S11). On the other hand, if there is a food ingredient R to be sold after the registration processing is completed, the registration processing of the food ingredient R to be sold according to the flowchart shown in FIG. 4 described later, and further, the purchase and sale processing thereafter can be performed. (Steps S8, S9, S10).

  On the other hand, if the person who wants to register is the purchaser Hb, the user selects the “purchase” tab based on the registration screen (not shown) displayed on the display (Vd), and enters the purchaser registration form (illustration). ), The necessary information such as name (company name), address, business type, etc. is input, and when all necessary information has been input, the confirmation key is turned on and transmitted (step S11, step S11). S12).

  On the other hand, the manager Hc (server computer 2) examines the received information on the purchase applicant Hb and determines whether or not the information matches a certain registration criterion set by the manager Hc (step S13). The registration criterion is basically the same as the above-mentioned sale applicant Hs. As a result, when the manager Hc determines that the information is suitable, the manager Hc registers the information together with the information received as the purchase applicant Hb (steps S14 and S15). That is, the server computer 2 additionally registers the purchase applicant Hb data in the purchase applicant database Db and creates a my page of the purchase applicant Hb (step S16). On the other hand, when the manager Hc determines that the information is nonconforming, the reason for the nonconformity is notified. Thereby, the purchase applicant Hb can make necessary corrections. Even if the registration criterion is not finally satisfied, there is a possibility of registration as a seller Hs, as in the case of the seller Hs described above. If so, a registration step as a seller Hs can be performed (steps S14, S2). On the other hand, when the search for the food ingredient R to be purchased is performed after the registration process is completed, the search process can be performed according to the flowchart shown in FIG. 9 described later, and the sales process can be performed thereafter (steps S17 and S18). , S19).

  Next, a procedure when the sale applicant Hs registers the food raw material R will be described with reference to FIGS.

  First, the seller Hs accesses the server computer 2 from the client computer 3s, displays a Web site screen on the display (Vd) of the client computer 3s, inputs an ID, a keyword, and the like, and logs in (step S21). Thereby, a food ingredient registration screen (not shown) is displayed (step S22). On this food ingredient registration screen, first, basic information relating to the food ingredient R is input (step S23).

  FIG. 5 shows a management screen V11 of the my page displayed on the display (Vd). On the management screen V11 shown in FIG. 5, an open display column 11 having food raw material display portions 11a and 11b for displaying the open food raw materials R in the upper row is arranged, and the food raw materials R under negotiation are displayed in the middle row. A negotiation display column 12 having food ingredient display sections 12a and 12b is arranged, and a publication end display section 13 having food ingredient display sections 13a and 13b for displaying the food ingredient R whose listing has been completed is arranged at the bottom. Therefore, on the food ingredient registration screen, information relating to each food ingredient R displayed on the food ingredient display section 11a of the management screen V11 shown in FIG. 5 can be input. In the case of an example, information relating to a photograph (attached), a selling point, a production area, a product name, a best-before date, a product form, a shipping source, and a price range can be input.

  Further, when registering the food ingredient R, in addition to the input of the food ingredient registration screen, the above-described standard data Ep shown in FIG. 6 is created and attached (step S24). In this case, since the server computer 2 is provided with the standard format M shown in FIG. 6, the standard format M is downloaded and the above-mentioned necessary items are input. When the input of the necessary items is completed, the standard document data Ep is attached to the food raw material data Ef input on the food raw material registration screen, and if there are other items, for example, comments and requests, additional input is required. Thus, the preparation for the sale applicant Hs side accompanying the registration is completed (steps S25 and S26).

  Then, the user turns on the confirmation key and sends it to the server computer 2 (step S27). The server computer 2 (manager Hc) checks (examines) the received information on the food ingredient R, that is, the contents of the food ingredient data Ef and the standard specification data Ep (step S28). As a result, if the registration criteria are met, the food ingredient data Ef is additionally registered in the food ingredient database Dm (steps S29 and S30). In addition, registration is made on the My Page of the sale applicant Hs (step S31). In this case, the My Page is displayed on the first food ingredient display section 11a of the open display section 11 in the upper part of the management screen V11 shown in FIG. In this way, the newly registered entry is displayed in the currently displayed column 11 in order. The same applies to the middle negotiation display column 12 in the middle row and the publication end display column 13 in the lower row. Accordingly, the seller Hs can check the management screen V11 displayed on the My Page and perform necessary management related to the sales transaction. In FIG. 5, reference numeral 15 denotes an information change application key used when changing registered information. In this way, when the information of the registered food material R is changed, if the information change application key 15 is turned on, the change function can be applied to the manager Hc by the mail function.

  On the other hand, when the manager Hc determines that the non-conformity is found, the manager Hc notifies the reason for the non-conformity. As a result, the seller Hs can make necessary corrections. In the case where it is finally determined that the food material is nonconforming, and there is another food material R to be sold, the process according to the same registration procedure is performed (steps S29, S32, S22). Then, when the necessary registration processing is completed, the user logs off (step S33).
