[0060] In order to make the purpose, technical solution and advantages of the embodiments of the present application clearer, the technical solution in the embodiments of the present application will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are part of the embodiments of the present application, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0061] Inventory counting is an important part of material management. It not only includes regular or temporary counting and verification of materials in the warehouse, but also requires a comprehensive grasp of the quantity, status and value of the materials. This process is a key step to ensure the accuracy of material management, and can effectively prevent the occurrence of adverse events such as material loss and material loss. Therefore, inventory counting is not only a basic task of material management, but also an important means to improve enterprise operating efficiency and reduce operating costs. In the prior art, scanning equipment based on RFID (Radio Frequency Identification) technology reads the labels attached to materials in the warehouse, obtains material information, and realizes inventory counting of warehouse materials. However, the operation of reading the labels attached to materials in the warehouse by scanning equipment may cause some materials to not be scanned due to operator errors, thereby leading to inaccurate inventory results of materials.

[0062] In order to solve the above technical problems, the embodiments of the present application propose the following technical concept: combining modern scanning equipment and data processing technology, the basic information of the target materials is associated with the scanning equipment. By sending the basic information of the materials to the scanning equipment and receiving the inventory data of the scanning equipment, and then checking these data with the existing inventory data to identify the missing or surplus status of the materials, and finally confirming the inventory results through the target personnel, the inventory data is updated to reflect the actual inventory situation. Accurate inventory of warehouse materials is achieved. The following detailed embodiments are used for detailed description.

[0063] Figure 1 Schematic diagram of a warehouse material inventory system provided by an embodiment of the present invention. Figure 1 As shown, the inventory system for warehouse materials includes: a communication-connected server 101 and a scanning device 102.

[0064] It is understandable that the structure illustrated in the embodiment of the present application does not constitute a specific limitation on the object identification method. In other feasible implementations of the present application, the above architecture may include more or fewer components than shown in the figure, or combine certain components, or split certain components, or arrange the components differently, which can be determined according to the actual application scenario and is not limited here. Figure 1 The components shown may be implemented in hardware, software, or a combination of software and hardware.

[0065] The server 101 may send the acquired target basic information to the scanning device 102 , and process and analyze the first inventory result data sent by the scanning device 102 .

[0066] The scanning device can receive the target basic information sent by the server 101, and scan the materials accordingly to generate the first inventory result data.

[0067] In addition, the network architecture and business scenarios described in the embodiments of the present application are intended to more clearly illustrate the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present application, and do not constitute a limitation on the technical solutions provided in the embodiments of the present application. Ordinary technicians in this field can know that with the evolution of network architecture and the emergence of new business scenarios, the technical solutions provided in the embodiments of the present application are also applicable to similar technical problems.

[0068] based on Figure 1 In the application scenario, the embodiment of the present application provides a method for counting warehouse materials, and the execution subject can be Figure 1 The server shown is not particularly limited in this embodiment. Figure 2 A flowchart of a method for counting warehouse materials provided in one embodiment of the present application is shown as follows: Figure 2 As shown, the method includes:

[0069] S201: Obtain target basic information of at least one target material to be counted in the warehouse.

[0070] Among them, a warehouse refers to a place where materials are stored, which can be a room, a large storage facility, or multiple distributed storage areas.

[0071] Among them, the target materials to be counted refer to the materials that need to be checked for quantity and status during the current inventory process.

[0072] Among them, the target basic information refers to the basic information about the materials to be counted, which is the key data used to identify and describe each material. The target basic information may include: the label, name or batch number of the target material, so as to realize the material inventory based on label, name or batch number. The target basic information can be intelligently generated by the server, or sent by the client to the server after the user selects it in the client.

[0073] In some implementations, the above target basic information can be intelligently generated by the server through the following process:

[0074] S2011: Obtain the in-and-out frequency of each material in the warehouse within a preset time period, and / or the historical inventory result data of the warehouse.

[0075] The preset time period refers to the time range that has been determined before data analysis and statistics are performed, which may be one month, one quarter, or one year, etc.

[0076] The frequency of in-and-out refers to the number of times materials are taken out of the warehouse (out-of-warehouse) and stored in the warehouse (in-warehouse) within a unit time. It can be the ratio of the total number of in-and-out times in a preset time period to the length of the preset time period. For example, when the preset time period is the past month, the frequency of in-and-out = the total number of in-and-out times in the past month 3000 / 30 / 24 = 4.17 times / hour.

[0077] The historical inventory result data refers to the inventory result data obtained by performing inventory counts in historical time, including but not limited to: information such as the quantity and status of materials, as well as any differences found during the inventory count and historical missing materials.

[0078] S2012: Determine as target materials materials whose in-and-out frequency is greater than a preset in-and-out frequency, and / or at least one historically missing material indicated by historical inventory result data.

[0079] The preset in-and-out frequency is used to determine whether materials frequently enter and exit the warehouse. When the in-and-out frequency of a material is greater than the preset in-and-out frequency, it means that the material frequently enters and exits the warehouse. In order to avoid the abnormal quantity of the material caused by frequent in-and-out operations, the material can be counted as a target material, which helps to improve the safety of the material. For materials with an in-and-out frequency less than or equal to the preset in-and-out frequency, they rarely enter and exit the warehouse, so the possibility of abnormal quantity is low, and there is no need to count such materials to reduce inventory costs.

[0080] In addition, historically missing materials can be used as target materials for inventory, which can reduce the material missing rate.

[0081] S2013: Obtain target basic information of target materials.

[0082] Among them, the target basic information can be obtained from the warehouse management system, and the warehouse management system is used to store all relevant information of each material in the warehouse.

[0083] The embodiment of the present application can intelligently generate target materials to be counted based on the frequency of entry and exit of the warehouse and the historical inventory result data, which can further improve the intelligence of the inventory and reduce user operations.

[0084] S202: Send the target basic information of the target material to the scanning device.

[0085] The scanning device refers to a device used to read the barcode or QR code information corresponding to the material. Generally, the scanning device may include but is not limited to: a handheld scanner, a fixed scanner, a wireless scanner or an RFID reader / writer.

[0086] S203: Receive first inventory result data sent by the scanning device for the target basic information, where the first inventory result data includes: a target identifier corresponding to each target material and the quantity of each target material.

[0087] It is understandable that each material has an identifier that uniquely represents the material, and the same type of material may correspond to multiple materials in the warehouse, and the multiple materials of the same type have different identifiers. The target identifier is the identifier of the target material, which is used to uniquely represent the target material.

[0088] The first inventory result data is obtained by scanning the corresponding target material based on the target basic information by the scanning device. The specific generation process can refer to the method steps S401-S403 on the scanning device side, which will not be repeated here.

[0089] S204: Compare the first inventory result data with the inventory data pre-recorded in the warehouse to determine the second inventory result data, the second inventory result data including: missing material information of the first inventory result data compared with the inventory data and surplus material information of the first inventory result data compared with the inventory data, the missing material information including the basic information of the missing materials and the missing quantity of the missing materials, the surplus material information including the basic information of the surplus materials and the surplus quantity of the surplus materials.

[0090] The missing materials refer to the materials that exist in the first inventory result data but not in the inventory data. The surplus materials refer to the materials that exist in the inventory data but not in the first inventory result data.

[0091] S205: After the target personnel confirms the second inventory counting result data, the first inventory counting result data is used to update the inventory data.

[0092] The target personnel may be personnel who perform inventory and / or management of warehouse materials.

[0093] Specifically, the server can send the second inventory result data to the client of the target person, so that the target person can view the second inventory result through the client. The target person first conducts a preliminary check on the second inventory result data; then, in order to confirm the correctness of the second inventory result data, the target person may conduct a field check on the actual quantity of some or all materials and compare it with the second inventory result data; if there is a difference, the target person will analyze the possible reasons; after completing all necessary checks and adjustments, the second inventory result data is used to update the inventory data.

[0094] S206: Send the first inventory result data and / or the second inventory result data to the terminal for display.

[0095] Among them, the terminal usually refers to the interface device operated by the user, which may include a computer terminal, a mobile device, a large-screen display or a printing device.

[0096] In summary, the basic information of the target material is first obtained and sent to the scanning device; then the first inventory result data returned by the scanning device is received and compared with the inventory data pre-recorded in the warehouse to identify the missing and surplus of the target material in the warehouse; finally, after confirmation by the target personnel, the inventory data is updated according to the first inventory result data. By automatically obtaining the basic information of the material and controlling the scanning device to scan the label on the material with the basic information to obtain the first inventory result data, it is possible to avoid missed scans or repeated scans caused by manual operation of the scanning device, improve the accuracy of the first inventory result data, and thus improve the accuracy of the inventory result.

[0097] Based on the above embodiment, this embodiment further describes the process of obtaining the second inventory result data, which is described in detail as follows:

[0098] S301: Aggregate the first inventory result data received multiple times according to the target identification of the target material to obtain third inventory result data.

[0099] For example, if during an inventory counting process, the first inventory counting result data is:

[0100] Material A, quantity 5, target identification is A1;

[0101] Material B, quantity 3, target identification is B1;

[0102] Material A, quantity 7, target identification is A1;

[0103] Material C, quantity 2, target identification is C1;

[0104] Material B, quantity 4, target identification is B1;

[0105] Material A, quantity 2, target identification is A2;

[0106] For material A, add up the quantity of all materials A with the same target ID; for material B, add up the quantity of all materials B with the same target ID, and get the third inventory result data as follows:

[0107] Material A, quantity 12, target identification A1;

[0108] Material A, quantity 2, target identification is A2;

[0109] Material B, quantity 7, target identification is B1;

[0110] Material C, quantity 2, target identification is C1.

[0111] S302: Compare the third inventory counting result data with the inventory data pre-recorded in the warehouse to determine the second inventory counting result data.

[0112] Among them, S302 specifically includes:

[0113] S3021: If the quantity of the target material in the third inventory result data is greater than the quantity of the target material in the inventory data, surplus material information is generated according to the target material.

[0114] S3022: If the quantity of the target material in the third inventory result data is less than the quantity of the target material in the inventory data, missing material information is generated according to the target material.

[0115] In summary, the first inventory result data received multiple times is aggregated to obtain the third inventory result data; then, the third inventory result data is compared with the pre-stored inventory data to determine the missing and surplus conditions of materials. The aggregated data is more concise and easy to manage and analyze, which not only improves the efficiency and speed of material inventory, but also ensures the accuracy of data during the inventory process.

[0116] based on Figure 1 In the application scenario, the embodiment of the present application provides a method for counting warehouse materials, and the execution subject can be Figure 1 The scanning device shown is not particularly limited in this embodiment. Figure 3 A flowchart of a method for counting warehouse materials provided in another embodiment of the present application is shown as follows: Figure 3 As shown, the method includes:

[0117] In this embodiment, the contents of steps S401 and S403-S405 are consistent with the contents of steps S201-S204. For detailed description, please refer to steps S201-S204, which will not be repeated here.

[0118] S401: Receive target basic information of target materials sent by the server.

[0119] S402: Determine the location of the target material in the warehouse according to the target basic information.

[0120] Among them, location refers to the specific storage location of materials in the warehouse. This location can be described in many ways including: storage location number, coordinate system or warehouse layout diagram.

[0121] Specifically, S402 includes:

[0122] S4021: Determine the label of the target material based on the target basic information.

[0123] For any material, there is a corresponding relationship between the basic information of the material and the label identification of the material label. Specifically, the basic information of the material can be encoded according to a preset encoding rule to obtain the label identification of the material label. In this way, the target basic information can be encoded according to this encoding rule to obtain the label identification of the target material label.

[0124] The target material's label may be an RFID tag or a barcode tag, which stores coded information about the material and can be read via wireless signals.

[0125] S4022: Send a signal to the tag for obtaining the location corresponding to the target material.

[0126] The signal refers to the radio frequency signal sent from the scanning device to communicate with the tag. The signal can activate the tag and read or write information from the tag.

[0127] S4023: Receive the location of the target material sent by the tag of the target material.

[0128] The label of each material stores the location of the label, that is, the location of the target material.

[0129] S403: Scan the target materials at the location to generate first inventory result data, where the first inventory result data includes: target identifiers corresponding to each target material and the quantity of each target material.

[0130] Among them, the labels of the target materials at the location are scanned.

[0131] Among them, S403 specifically includes:

[0132] S4031: Generate an inventory route based on the locations of multiple target materials.

[0133] The inventory route refers to the specific walking path planned by the target personnel in the warehouse for inventorying the materials. The inventory route includes the locations of the materials that need to be counted arranged in order. The inventory route can be generated based on the shortest distance to make the path of the inventory route the shortest.

[0134] Among them, multiple inventory routes can be generated. When the warehouse is very large, or the inventory task requires multiple people to perform at the same time, multiple inventory sub-routes can be designed. Different inventory sub-routes correspond to different target material locations, which can be assigned to different staff or teams to implement inventory according to different inventory sub-routes.

[0135] S4032: Scan each target material one by one according to the inventory route to generate first inventory result data.

[0136] Among them, you can choose any inventory route to scan each target material one by one, and you can choose the shortest inventory route to improve inventory efficiency and reduce inventory time.

[0137] Specifically, S4032 specifically includes:

[0138] S4032a: When a target material needs to be counted each time according to the inventory route, the lighting equipment around the location of the target material is controlled to turn on, and the lighting equipment is used to illuminate the target material.

[0139] S4032b: Scan the illuminated target materials to generate first inventory result data.

[0140] In other embodiments, after generating the second inventory result, the lighting equipment around the location of the missing materials indicated by the corresponding missing material information in the second inventory result data can be turned on to illuminate the missing materials, thereby facilitating the staff to conduct manual inventory of the missing materials and ensuring that the inventory results of this part of the missing materials are correct.

[0141] S404: Send the first inventory result data to the server.

[0142] In summary, we can know that we first receive the target basic information of the target material from the server, and locate the position of the material in the warehouse accordingly; then scan the material at the specified location, and form the first inventory result data, and send this data to the server; receive the inventory result data analyzed by the server. By automatically obtaining the basic information of the material and comparing it with the scanned data, we can reduce the problem of inaccurate inventory caused by human operation errors.
