Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the field of cross-border e-commerce, and in particular to a cross-border e-commerce cost assessment method and system. Background Art

[0002] Cross-border e-commerce, the full name of which is cross-border electronic commerce, refers to the commercial activities in which trading entities in different countries or regions use the Internet and related information technologies to achieve online transactions and payment settlements for goods and services, and use cross-border logistics to deliver goods to consumers. Cross-border e-commerce, the full name of which is cross-border electronic commerce, refers to the commercial activities in which trading entities in different countries or regions use the Internet and related information technologies to achieve online transactions and payment settlements for goods and services, and use cross-border logistics to deliver goods to consumers.

[0003] The cost structure of cross-border e-commerce is relatively complex, mainly including the following aspects: Product cost: including production cost, procurement cost and other costs related to the product. Logistics cost: Since cross-border e-commerce involves cross-border transportation, logistics costs account for a high proportion, usually between 20-30%. This includes first-leg freight (from the manufacturer to the overseas warehouse or directly to the consumer), last-leg freight (from the overseas warehouse to the consumer) and possible storage costs. Platform fees: Selling products on cross-border e-commerce platforms usually requires paying a certain percentage of commission or service fee. Taxes and tariffs: Different countries and regions have different tax policies, and exporters need to understand the tax and tariff regulations of the destination country. Marketing and advertising expenses: In order to increase product awareness and sales, certain marketing and advertising expenses need to be invested. Operating costs: including expenses required for daily operations such as human resources, software use, and data analysis. After-sales service costs: including customer service, return processing, product repairs and other costs. Most of the above costs are fixed expenses, while logistics costs The invention patent with application number 202411026796.8 discloses a system and method for intelligent calculation of logistics freight for cross-border e-commerce. The method collects logistics data through APIs and integrates customs and logistics company information; obtains tax data in real time and uses genetic algorithms to optimize transportation plans; uses machine learning to build a dynamic cost model for preliminary cost estimation; establishes a risk assessment mechanism to monitor factors affecting freight; during transportation, uses geographic information systems and blockchain technology to achieve transparent tracking and cost feedback; after the goods arrive, the final cost is calculated based on the actual transportation data; optimizes the logistics process through deep learning methods, and iteratively updates the cost model and transportation strategy. The present invention not only improves the logistics and transportation efficiency of cross-border e-commerce, but also effectively controls transportation costs and improves the transparency and predictability of the operation of the entire supply chain.

[0004] The above technology plans the logistics transportation route, combines tariffs and other fees, calculates the optimal route, and calculates the cost; this process can effectively evaluate the cost as a whole in multiple aspects, but the logistics company's quotation is basically based on the net weight and limits the size of the goods. If the size exceeds the limit, additional fees will be required. For special-shaped goods, the size may have exceeded the limit, that is, more logistics costs will be charged on the basis of the original weight limit. Most cross-border e-commerce merchants have multiple types of goods, and each type of goods has multiple pieces. If the price is set according to the single piece and then calculated based on the total number, the transportation cost will be greatly increased. Now there is a need for a technology that can streamline the logistics costs of cross-border e-commerce and reduce the economic burden of practitioners. Summary of the invention

[0005] The present invention provides a cross-border e-commerce cost assessment method and system, which can estimate the logistics costs of cross-border e-commerce more accurately and reduce the economic concerns of practitioners.

[0006] In order to solve the above technical problems, this application provides the following technical solutions: a cross-border e-commerce cost evaluation system, comprising: Data acquisition module: obtains the categories of cross-border goods and generates corresponding numbers for storage; Size acquisition module: identifies the shape features of each serial numbered commodity, wherein the shape features include at least length, width, and height; Modeling module: Proportional modeling of the product is performed according to the size data obtained by the size acquisition module, and the established model is matched with the corresponding product number; Matching module: used to obtain the package size and weight data corresponding to the logistics company's logistics quotation, and the information of the goods to be shipped by the merchant; preliminarily screen out the logistics companies that meet the merchant's requirements; Data processing module: according to the packaging size and corresponding weight data of the logistics company; by combining and calculating the size data of the goods to be transported of the merchant, the goods to be transported are assembled and spliced ​​so that the total size and weight do not exceed the packaging size and weight requirements of the logistics company; the modeling module also assembles the corresponding product models according to the assembly method to generate a transportation model; The data processing module screens the logistics companies that meet the requirements again according to the transportation model, and calculates the corresponding transportation prices and arranges them in descending order.

[0007] The basic principle and beneficial effects of this solution are as follows: the data acquisition module collects product information and generates a unique number, then the size acquisition module identifies the physical size of the product, and the modeling module creates a proportional three-dimensional product model based on these size data and matches it with the product number. The matching module is responsible for collecting the quotation information of the logistics company and preliminarily screening out the logistics options that meet the needs of the merchant. The data processing module further analyzes the product size, makes the best combination to meet the packaging requirements of the logistics company, and generates a transportation model. Finally, the system screens the logistics company again according to these transportation models, and calculates the most cost-effective transportation plan, which is presented to the merchant in descending order, thereby optimizing the logistics cost and improving the operational efficiency. This solution mainly estimates the logistics cost. By estimating the logistics cost and combining it with other expenses, the total cost of cross-border e-commerce can be evaluated. This solution uses a combination method to achieve a reduction in size compared to the transportation billing method of calculating size and weight for a single piece, which can save some transportation costs and can also ship more in one batch.

[0008] Furthermore, the commodities are of multiple categories, and the data processing module is also used to combine the commodities of multiple categories.

[0009] Beneficial effects: It can be combined according to the various commodities selected by the merchant, which is more diverse.

[0010] Furthermore, the data processing module is also used to issue a supplement prompt instruction when the size of the commodity combination is not saturated with respect to the packaging size of the logistics company, and the merchant selects other commodities for supplementation according to the supplement prompt instruction.

[0011] Beneficial effects: It can further reduce merchants' logistics costs and transport more goods to spread the logistics prices.

[0012] Furthermore, when the data processing module issues a supplement prompt instruction, it selects a list of commodities that meet the size requirements and can be used for logistics packaging and supplement in the data acquisition module.

[0013] Beneficial effect: Automatically filter out supplementary products that meet size requirements, making it easier for merchants to choose.

[0014] Furthermore, the matching platform is also used to obtain the logistics needs of multiple merchants, and when the merchant's delivery volume is insufficient, find complementary merchants to merge orders.

[0015] Beneficial effect: When the freight volume is insufficient, finding complementary merchants to merge orders can reduce individual logistics costs.

[0016] Furthermore, the modeling module also constructs a corresponding product stand according to the assembly mode of the product, and displays the product stand to the merchant for production.

[0017] Beneficial effects: Can help to better fix and package goods.

[0018] Furthermore, the data processing module is also used to make an overall calculation based on product costs, logistics costs, taxes and tariffs, operating costs and after-sales service costs to evaluate the costs.

[0019] A cross-border e-commerce cost assessment method includes the following steps: S1: Obtain cross-border commodity categories; S2: Obtain the size data of each product; S3: Perform three-dimensional modeling based on the size data of the product; S4: Obtain the logistics packaging size and weight data of the logistics company and the types of goods to be transported by the merchant; S5: Combine the merchant's goods to be transported based on the logistics company's packaging size and weight data as the upper limit; S6: The modeling module assembles the corresponding products according to the combination method and generates a display model; S7: Obtain the logistics price of the combined goods and perform cost estimation.

[0020] Furthermore, the commodities to be transported in step S5 include multiple types. When the size of the commodity combination is not saturated with respect to the packaging size of the logistics company, commodities that meet the remaining size requirements are selected from the cross-border commodity categories for supplementation.
