DESCRIPTION OF EMBODIMENTS
Hereinafter, example embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. Note that, in all of the drawings, a similar component has a similar reference sign, and description thereof will be appropriately omitted.
FIG. 1 is a diagram illustrating a configuration of a product management apparatus 10 according to an example embodiment. The product management apparatus 10 is an apparatus that manages a preparation plan of a product cooked at a store, and is installed in, for example, a store (hereinafter, described as a target store) being a setting target of the preparation plan. For a product cooked at a store, a time since the product is cooked until the product is disposed of is determined. Thus, a salesclerk needs to cook a product for a plurality of times during a day. The preparation plan includes the number of cooking times by time period in each month and day. When there are a plurality of kinds of products cooked in the store, the preparation plan is set by the kinds. Then, two or more products are displayed on one display shelf. This display shelf may often have a function of keeping warmth.
The product management apparatus 10 includes an acquisition unit 110, a screen display unit 120, and a storage processing unit 130. The product management apparatus 10 is used together with a storage unit 140 and a display 150. In the example illustrated in FIG. 1, the storage unit 140 and the display 150 are a part of the product management apparatus 10, but at least one of the storage unit 140 and the display 150 may be provided outside the product management apparatus 10. The storage unit 140 stores various types of information (for example, data about a screen displayed on the display 150) needed for processing performed by the product management apparatus 10.
The acquisition unit 110 acquires information (hereinafter, described as target period information) that can determine a first period being a setting target of a preparation plan. For example, a salesclerk at a target store inputs first period information to the product management apparatus 10. Then, the acquisition unit 110 acquires this first period information. The first period information may include a month and day (furthermore, a time period), or may have an attribute instead of this. The attribute includes at least one of a day of a week, whether it is a holiday, presence or absence of a sale at the target store, and presence or absence of an event around the target store. When the first period information is the attribute, the preparation plan may be a plan common to a period (for example, a day) having the attribute, and may indicate a default value of a preparation number in a period of the attribute.
The screen display unit 120 displays a first screen on the display 150. The first screen includes an input field of a preparation number of a product by the product of a plurality of kinds. As described above, two or more products are displayed on one display shelf. Then, on the first screen, an arrangement order of the input field associated with each of the two or more products is the same as an arrangement order of the two or more products on the display shelf. In this way, a salesclerk is less likely to make a mistake in a product being a target of the input field. Note that, a specific example of the first screen will be described below by using another diagram.
The storage processing unit 130 stores, in the storage unit 140, a numerical value input to the input field, in association with a combination of the product associated with the input field and a period indicated by the target period information. In this way, at least a part of the preparation plan is stored in the storage unit 140.
Subsequently, a salesclerk in charge of cooking at the target store displays the preparation plan being stored in the storage unit 140 on the display 150, and confirms a preparation number of a product in that time period on that day.
Note that, the product management apparatus 10 may be a server installed outside the target store. In this case, the product management apparatus 10 manages a preparation plan of a plurality of target stores. Then, the display 150, and an input device operated by a salesclerk are installed in each of the plurality of target stores.
FIG. 2 is a diagram illustrating a hardware configuration example of the product management apparatus 10. The product management apparatus 10 includes a bus 1010, a processor 1020, a memory 1030, a storage device 1040, an input/output interface 1050, and a network interface 1060.
The bus 1010 is a data transmission path for allowing the processor 1020, the memory 1030, the storage device 1040, the input/output interface 1050, and the network interface 1060 to transmit and receive data with one another. However, a method for connecting the processor 1020 and the like to one another is not limited to bus connection.
The processor 1020 is a processor achieved by a central processing unit (CPU), a graphics processing unit (GPU), and the like.
The memory 1030 is a main storage apparatus achieved by a random access memory (RAM) and the like.
The storage device 1040 is an auxiliary storage apparatus achieved by a hard disk drive (HDD), a solid state drive (SSD), a memory card, a read only memory (ROM), or the like. The storage device 1040 stores a program module that achieves each function (for example, the acquisition unit 110, the screen display unit 120, and the storage processing unit 130) of the product management apparatus 10. The processor 1020 reads each program module onto the memory 1030 and executes the program module, and each function associated with the program module is achieved. Further, the storage device 1040 also functions as the storage unit 140.
The input/output interface 1050 is an interface for connecting the product management apparatus 10 and various types of input/output equipment.
The network interface 1060 is an interface for connecting the product management apparatus 10 to a network. The network is, for example, a local area network (LAN) and a wide area network (WAN). A method of connection to the network by the network interface 1060 may be wireless connection or wired connection.
FIG. 3 is a flowchart illustrating a first example of processing performed by the product management apparatus 10. First, the product management apparatus 10 displays an initial screen on the display 150. This initial screen includes a region for inputting or selecting target period information (step S10). A salesclerk at a target store inputs or selects the target period information in this initial screen. Then, the acquisition unit 110 of the product management apparatus 10 acquires the target period information (step S20).
Next, the screen display unit 120 displays the first screen (step S30). The salesclerk inputs a preparation number of a product by plurality of products to this first screen. The storage processing unit 130 acquires the preparation number by the products being input herein (step S40), and stores, in the storage unit 140, the preparation number by the products in association with the target period information acquired by the acquisition unit 110 (step S50). For example, when the target period information indicates a month and day, the storage processing unit 130 stores the preparation number by the products in association with the month and day. On the other hand, when the target period information indicates an attribute (for example, at least one of a day of a week, whether it is a holiday, presence or absence of a sale at the target store, and presence or absence of an event around the target store), the preparation number by the products is stored in association with the attribute.
Note that, when the target period information indicates the attribute, as described above, the preparation number being stored herein may be handled as a default value of the preparation number in the period of the attribute. In this case, after setting of this default value is performed, the processing illustrated in FIG. 3 is performed again. Then, at that time, when a target period indicates a month and day, the screen display unit 120 displays, as a default value, the preparation number being stored in association with an attribute of the month and day in the storage unit 140 on the first screen.
FIG. 4 is a diagram illustrating a first example of the first screen displayed on the display 150 in step S30 in FIG. 3. In the example illustrated in FIG. 4, the first screen also functions as the initial screen, and includes a period selection field 200 for selecting target period information. The period selection field 200 includes a month-day selection field 202 for selecting a month and day, and an attribute selection field 204 for selecting an attribute. Note that, when a salesclerk selects a month and day in the month-day selection field 202, an attribute associated with the month and day is automatically selected in the attribute selection field 204.
Further, the first screen includes a plan input field 210 for inputting a preparation plan at a target store. In the plan input field 210, the preparation plan can be input in a unit of days. Specifically, in the plan input field 210, one day is divided into a plurality of time periods, and an input field of a preparation number is provided by the plurality of time periods for each of the plurality of products. Then, in each of the time periods, an arrangement order of the input fields of the plurality of products coincides with an arrangement order of the plurality of products on a display shelf Thus, a salesclerk can easily determine a product associated with each of the input fields. Therefore, a possibility that the salesclerk makes a mistake in a product being an input target is reduced. Note that, the display shelf associated with the example illustrated in FIG. 4 is not illustrated, but includes three shelves, and a plurality of products are displayed on each of the shelves. Then, also in the plan input field 210, input fields of the plurality of products are divided into three rows, and, in each of the rows, the input fields of the plurality of products associated with the row are provided.
Further, on the first screen, each of the plurality of input fields includes at least one of an image, a picture, and a mark of a product associated with the input field in addition to a product name of the product. In this way, even when a salesclerk is not conversant in a language being used for the product name, the salesclerk can easily determine the product associated with the input field. Therefore, a possibility that the salesclerk makes a mistake in a product being an input target is further reduced.
Further, the first screen illustrated in FIG. 4 includes a recommended value of a preparation number of at least one product. As one example, this recommended value is based on a performance value of a preparation number of a product at a store (hereinafter, described as another store) different from the target store. The another store is a store whose location condition is close to that of the target store, and whose sales of a product cooked in the store is equal to or greater than a reference. The location condition is, for example, 1) a name of a nearest station and a distance from the station, 2) an environment (a residential street, a busy street, a commercial region, and presence or absence of a predetermined facility (a school and a company)) around a store, 3) a passage amount of at least one of a pedestrian and a vehicle on a road around a store, and the like.
Then, a recommended value display field 212 of a preparation number is the same as the input field of the target store. Specifically, in the recommended value display field 212, one day is divided into a plurality of time periods, and an input field of a preparation number is provided by the plurality of time periods for each of the plurality of products. Then, in each of the time periods, an arrangement order of the input fields of the plurality of products coincides with an arrangement order of the plurality of products on a display shelf.
The recommended value display field 212 is aligned in a horizontal direction with the plan input field 210. Then, the first screen includes a copy button 214 for copying a recommended value to the plan input field 210. The copy button 214 is located between the recommended value display field 212 and the plan input field 210, and is provided by time period. Then, when a salesclerk selects the copy button 214, product names of a plurality of products and a recommended value of each of the products are collectively input to the plan input field 210 in a time period associated with the selected copy button 214.
Note that, a salesclerk in charge of cooking at the target store confirms the preparation plan being stored in the storage unit 140. At this time, the acquisition unit 110 acquires the preparation plan being stored in the storage processing unit 130. Then, the screen display unit 120 displays a confirmation screen of the preparation plan on the display 150 by using read information. Also, on this confirmation screen, similarly to the plan input field 210 in FIG. 4, a display field of the preparation number is provided by the plurality of time periods for each of the plurality of products. Then, in each of the time periods, an arrangement order of the display fields of the plurality of products coincides with the arrangement order of the plurality of products on a display shelf Thus, a salesclerk can easily determine a product associated with each display field. Thus, the salesclerk is less likely to mix up a preparation number of a product during cooking.
FIG. 9 is a diagram illustrating a second example of the first screen displayed on the display 150 in step S30. In the example illustrated in FIG. 9, target period information specifies both of a month and day and a time period. Then, the first screen includes a performance display field 300 and a shelf image display field 322 in addition to the plan input field 210.
The performance display field 330 indicates a performance value of a preparation number by plurality of products at the target store. The performance value is based on a performance value in a past period having the same attribute as that in a period indicated by the target period information. Then, an arrangement order of the performance values of the plurality of products coincides with the arrangement order of the plurality of products on a display shelf. In other words, an arrangement order of the product in the performance display field 300 coincides with an arrangement order of the product in the plan input field 210. Therefore, a salesclerk at the target store easily compares a performance value of a preparation number of a product with an input field of a preparation number of the product.
The shelf image display field 322 displays an image of the display shelf on which the plurality of products are displayed. The image being displayed herein is captured at the target store in a past period having the same attribute as that in a period indicated by the target period information. As described above, in each of the plan input field 210 and the performance display field 300, the arrangement order of the products coincides with the arrangement order of the plurality of products on the display shelf. Further, when a salesclerk at the target store confirms a target value and the performance value of the plurality of products, the salesclerk can refer to the image of the display shelf. Therefore, the salesclerk is less likely to mix up a product.
Note that, the first screen illustrated in FIG. 9 includes the performance display field 330 and a shelf image display field 332 at another store being a basis of a recommended value in addition to the recommended value display field 212. Data displayed in the performance display field 330 and the shelf image display field 332 are similar to data displayed in the performance display field 300 and the shelf image display field 322 except for a point that a target is the another store.
FIG. 5 is a flowchart illustrating a second example of processing performed by the product management apparatus 10. When the processing illustrated in FIG. 5 is performed, a salesclerk at a target store confirms, by using the product management apparatus 10, at least one piece of performance of a preparation number, a sales number, and a disposal number of a product cooked in the store. Then, the salesclerk selects a period considered to need an improvement in the preparation number. Then, the product management apparatus 10 displays, in the period selection field 200 for selecting the target period information, the selected period in a different manner from that in another period. Further, when the product management apparatus 10 displays a first screen associated with the same attribute as that in the selected period, the product management apparatus 10 displays at least a part of the first screen in a different manner from that in a case of the another period.
First, the screen display unit 120 displays a second screen on the display 150. The second screen indicates at least one performance value (hereinafter, described as performance information) of a preparation number, a sales number, and a disposal number of a product at the target store by period (for example, by month and day) (step S110). Hereinafter, a period used on a first screen (i.e., a screen including an input field of a preparation number of a product) is described as a first period, and a period used on the second screen is described as a second period. The second period can be selected on the second screen. Note that, the performance information is stored in, for example, the storage unit 140. However, at least a part (for example, a sales number) of the performance information may be stored in an external apparatus, for example, a POS system.
A salesclerk at the target store uses the second screen, determines the second period that needs an improvement in a preparation number, and selects the determined second period. The storage processing unit 130 acquires information indicating the selected second period (step S120), and stores an attribute of the selected second period in the storage unit 140 (step S130).
Subsequently, the product management apparatus 10 displays, in the period selection field 200 for selecting the target period information, the selected period in a different manner from that in another period. Furthermore, when a first period associated with the same attribute as that of the selected second period is selected, the product management apparatus 10 displays at least a part of a first screen in a different manner from that in an associated portion of the first screen when another first period is selected.
FIG. 6 is a diagram illustrating one example of the second screen displayed by the display 150 in step S110 in FIG. 5. As described by using FIG. 5, the second screen indicates performance information at a target store by period (for example, by month and day). In the example illustrated in FIG. 6, the second screen includes a period selection field 302 for selecting a second period. As described by using FIG. 5, the second period is a period that needs an improvement in a preparation number. A month and day can be selected in the period selection field 302. Further, the second screen includes a product selection field 304 for selecting a product whose performance information needs to be displayed.
Further, the second screen includes a table region 310 that displays, in a table form, performance information about a product selected in the product selection field 304 in a second period selected in the period selection field 302, and a graph region 312 that displays the performance information in a graph. Note that, in the table region 310 and the graph region 312, a period in which the performance information is displayed includes a month and day selected in the period selection field 302, and a month and day before and after the selected month and day. As one example, a period in which the performance information is displayed is a week including a month and day selected in the period selection field 302.
Then, in at least one (preferably both) of the table region 310 and the graph region 312, each month and day can be selected as a second period whose attribute needs to be stored. The storage processing unit 130 stores, in the storage unit 140, an attribute associated with a period selected in the table region 310 or the graph region 312. For example, in the table region 310 in FIG. 6, a preparation amount field in a specific month and day (for example, March 3rd) is selected by a salesclerk. Then, this field (for example, a field indicated by a reference sign 314) is emphasized and displayed. Further, the storage processing unit 130 stores an attribute associated with this month and day in the storage unit 140. At this time, the storage processing unit 130 may further store, in the storage unit 140, information (hereinafter, described as product identification information) that identifies a product selected in the product selection field 304.
Further, the month and day is set as the second period on the second screen, but this month and day may be further subdivided into a plurality of time periods (for example, morning, afternoon, and night). In this case, performance information is also displayed by plurality of time periods. The plurality of time periods can be selected. In this case, a salesclerk may select at least one time period in addition to the month and day. The selected time period is a time period that needs an improvement in a preparation number. Then, the storage processing unit 130 also further stores, in addition to the attribute associated with this month and day, information (hereinafter, described as time period information) indicating the selected time period in the storage unit 140.
FIG. 7 is a diagram illustrating a first example of a first screen (i.e., a screen including an input field of a preparation number of a product) after a salesclerk selects a second period that needs an improvement in a preparation number on the screen illustrated in FIG. 6. In the example illustrated in FIG. 7, the screen display unit 120 recognize, by using information being stored in the storage unit 140, an attribute (for example, Tuesday) of the second period (i.e., the period that needs the improvement in the preparation number) selected by the salesclerk. Then, the screen display unit 120 displays, in the period selection field 200 on the display 150, a period (for example, a date and time in the month-day selection field 202, and an attribute in the attribute selection field 204) associated with the recognized attribute in a different manner from that in another period. The display performed herein is emphasized display, and is performed by, for example, setting a different color, thickening a character and a frame line, providing a specific mark, and/or the like. In this way, a salesclerk can recognize a period (for example, a day of a week) that needs an improvement in a preparation number.
Note that, in the example illustrated in FIG. 7, a period being selected as a first period has an attribute different from that of the second period selected by the salesclerk. Thus, the plan input field 210 is as normal.
FIG. 8 is a diagram illustrating a second example of the first screen (i.e., the screen including the input field of the preparation number of the product) after the salesclerk selects the second period that needs the improvement in the preparation number on the screen illustrated in FIG. 6. On the first screen illustrated in FIG. 8, a period (for example, Tuesday, March 9th) being selected as a first period has the same attribute (for example, Tuesday) as that of the second period selected by the salesclerk. Thus, the plan input field 210 is displayed in a different manner from that in the example illustrated in FIG. 7. The display performed herein is also emphasized display, and is performed by, for example, setting a different color, thickening a character and a frame line, providing a specific mark, and/or the like. In this way, a salesclerk can recognize that a preparation number of a product needs to be improved in a period in which the salesclerk is about to input a preparation number this time.
Further, when the storage unit 140 also stores at least one of product identification information and time period information (for example, morning, afternoon, or evening) about a product that needs an improvement in a preparation number, the screen display unit 120 reads the pieces of information from the storage unit 140. Then, when the read information includes the product identification information, the screen display unit 120 displays, in the plan input field 210, an input field (for example, an input field on the upper right) associated with the product identification information read from the storage unit 140 in a different manner from that in another input field. Further, when a first period is in a unit of days, and the read information includes the time period information, the screen display unit 120 displays, in the plan input field 210, an input field associated with the time period information read from the storage unit 140 in a different manner from that in another input field. Further, when a first period is in a unit of days, and the read information includes both of the product identification information and the time period information, the screen display unit 120 displays, in the plan input field 210, an input field associated with a combination of the product identification information and the time period information read from the storage unit 140 in a different manner from that in another input field. The display performed herein is also emphasized display, and is performed by, for example, setting a different color, thickening a character and a frame line, providing a specific mark, and/or the like. In this way, a salesclerk can easily recognize at least one of a product and a time period that need an improvement in a preparation number.
As described above, according to the present invention, a possibility that, when a salesclerk sets a preparation number of a product cooked in a store, the salesclerk makes a mistake in a product being an input target is reduced. Further, a salesclerk can easily recognize a period that needs an improvement in a preparation number.
