Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The application belongs to the technical field of network, and particularly relates to a cross-border e-commerce supply chain simulation system based on event driving. BACKGROUND

[0002] The supply chain refers to a network structure formed by connecting members such as material suppliers, manufacturers, sellers and final consumers in the production and flow process of products. Unlike domestic e-commerce, cross-border e-commerce highlights the complexity of the logistics link and the relatively long logistics cycle due to its cross-border attribute, which further leads to the complexity of the cost, information and other dimensions, which are difficult to control. A typical cross-border e-commerce is that a cross-border seller purchases from a third-party supplier or produces by himself, supplements goods in China, and sends them to a departure warehouse through domestic logistics. In the departure warehouse, warehouse operators collect goods, and when the volume of goods reaches the expected value, the goods are sent to an overseas warehouse through international logistics, and the goods are transported to the destination warehouse. If a buyer places an order on the e-commerce platform, the destination warehouse operator will send the goods to the buyer through foreign express or foreign logistics.

[0003] In the whole process, the cross-border seller will make a sales forecast according to certain rules to make a procurement / production plan. From the plan making to the goods reaching the buyer, there will be a cycle of ten days to several months. The cross-border seller will have a certain amount of capital flow during this period. For the cross-border seller, the capital flow is very important, and he needs to know the capital occupation amount and the capital repayment period in advance. In addition, the cost of each service will be different in different scenarios, and the cross-border e-commerce seller also needs to know the maximum cost, the minimum cost and the average cost in advance.

[0004] In the whole process, unexpected factors such as buyer returns and unqualified goods inspection in the departure warehouse will also occur to a certain extent, and similar exceptions will also have a certain impact on the results of the whole plan. Especially when the cross-border e-commerce cost increases and the profit decreases, the reasonable planning of the cross-border e-commerce supply chain by the cross-border e-commerce seller is particularly important. SUMMARY

[0005] To solve the above-mentioned existing problems, the application provides a cross-border e-commerce supply chain simulation system based on event driving, which can predict the inventory and capital occupation of each logistics node under certain conditions, and supports the cross-border e-commerce seller to define some dimensions that he is more concerned about at a higher level, such as the income of the buyer purchase part, the cost of each commodity from the procurement / production link to the buyer purchase whole process and the final profit of each commodity, so that the cross-border e-commerce seller can reasonably plan the commodity supply chain and develop the most suitable operation strategy.

[0006] The technical scheme adopted by the present application is as follows: The present application is based on an event-driven cross-border e-commerce supply chain simulation system, which comprises a model layer, an assembly layer, an element layer and a statistical layer. The model layer comprises a cross-border supply chain simulation model. The system designs rich elements and assemblies required by a common cross-border e-commerce supply chain. A user generates a required assembly by calling an assembly provided by the system or assembling elements according to his / her own needs. A mutual influence relationship is established through the assembly, and a complete cross-border supply chain simulation model is obtained. The cross-border supply chain simulation model is run, and simulation statistical data can be obtained according to a set statistical formula. The inventory and cost statistics of each logistics node are statistically defaulted, and a user can also write a simulation data statistical formula according to each parameter in the cross-border supply chain simulation model according to his / her own needs.

[0007] Further, the model layer is a link generated by a user according to his / her own business scenario, through series connection of mutual assemblies and establishment of a mutual influence relationship.

[0008] Further, the assembly layer is a device based on element assembly and carrying a business relationship.

[0009] Further, the element layer is a basic unit set that can be used by the cross-border e-commerce supply chain simulation system.

[0010] Further, the present application also comprises a cross-border supply chain simulation model operation step:

[0011] Step one: A user enters a link of a cross-border e-commerce supply chain simulation platform through a browser, enters a cross-border supply chain simulation model building interface, and the cross-border supply chain simulation model building interface mainly comprises three areas: an assembly / element area, a workbench area and an attribute setting area. The assembly / element area provides assemblies or elements required by a user. The workbench area is an area where a user operates a cross-border supply chain simulation model. The attribute setting area is an area where a user sets attributes of an assembly or an element.

[0012] Step two: A user can encapsulate a required assembly according to provided elements. After the required assembly and elements meet the needs, the user drags the assembly or the element to the workbench area, connects them in a certain order according to their mutual influence relationship, and clicks a specific assembly or element to edit or add its attributes in the attribute setting area.

[0013] Step three: After the cross-border supply chain simulation model is built, a simulation formula is set. The present application defaults to take a day as a simulation time interval, i.e., the minimum time interval for simulation running is one day. The present application will default to give a simulation result line chart for the inventory and cost dimensions most concerned by a cross-border e-commerce seller. A user can also customize a simulation formula and a display form of a simulation result.

[0014] Step four: running the cross-border supply chain simulation model until the user desired time, the system interface will show the simulation results, the user can download the simulation results in the form of pictures to the local computer for saving, thus, a complete process is finished, after the simulation is finished, the user can adjust the parameters and simulate again under the new input conditions to compare the running results under multiple conditions.

[0015] The beneficial effects obtained by the application with the above structure are as follows: the cross-border e-commerce supply chain simulation system based on event driving proposed in the scheme realizes binding with the business of the cross-border e-commerce supply chain, enables the user familiar with the business to obtain the result output by the complex algorithm without too deep understanding of the technology, provides the components required for the cross-border e-commerce supply chain simulation by default, and provides sufficient elements, when the existing components cannot meet the business needs of part of the cross-border e-commerce sellers, the elements can be encapsulated to generate the required custom components, and the elements can also be directly used for building the cross-border supply chain simulation model, the scheme can enable the user to build the model by simply dragging the components with business meaning in some simple scenarios to complete the simulation process, and in complex business, the user can build a more complex cross-border e-commerce supply chain simulation model by deeply understanding the system, for the components or elements, the user can edit or increase the attributes according to the own needs, such a design can satisfy the user to customize the simulation data statistical formula, enable the user to simulate in other dimensions in addition to the inventory and cost of each simulation node, in the design idea of event driving, only the attribute setting of the component or element needs to be considered, the influence of the component or element on the previous component or the next component has a specific event processing, the complex business and technical problems are split to reduce the complexity of a single node, in addition to providing the default line chart, other forms of simulation data output forms such as pie chart and column chart are also provided, the user can select the appropriate simulation data output form according to the business needs and the simulation data statistical formula.
