Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of logistics, and in particular to a logistics track management system. Background Art

[0002] In the logistics supply chain industry, especially the cross-border logistics supply chain industry, blocking one or several tracks of a logistics order is a very common means of optimizing information display.

[0003] First of all, as a supplier of cross-border logistics services, there is a set of standard logistics processes to ensure the efficiency and consistency of services. However, in actual operations, due to the complex geography and personnel involved in cross-border logistics, and the numerous links, some logistics links may not meet the standard requirements. In order to prevent customers from seeing abnormal links that may cause doubts or dissatisfaction, it is necessary to choose to block these links in the track display. This not only helps to maintain the company's professional image, but also prevents customer complaints caused by the display of imperfect logistics links.

[0004] Secondly, different customers have different needs and expectations for logistics tracks. Some customers may focus on specific transportation links, while others may be more concerned about the overall transportation timeliness. In order to improve customer satisfaction, some companies will customize the display content of logistics tracks according to customer requirements. This personalized service can better meet customer expectations and reduce complaints caused by inconsistent information.

[0005] Finally, shielding the tracks of certain logistics orders can also protect business secrets and sensitive information. In the cross-border logistics process, the various operations and processes involved may contain business secrets or sensitive data. If this information is publicly displayed, it may leak the company's operating secrets or affect the customer's business interests. By shielding the relevant track information, these sensitive data can be effectively protected to avoid potential risks and unnecessary troubles.

[0006] In summary, by shielding unnecessary trajectory information, key information can be displayed to customers more clearly, thus improving user experience.

[0007] Therefore, how to conveniently and quickly shield unnecessary trajectory information is a problem that needs to be solved at present. Summary of the invention

[0008] The purpose of the present invention is to provide a logistics track management system that can conveniently and quickly shield unnecessary track information.

[0009] In order to achieve the above object, the present invention provides a logistics track management system, comprising:

[0010] An intelligent shielding module, wherein the intelligent shielding module formulates a plurality of different shielding strategies, wherein information of the shielding strategies at least includes: a strategy name, shielding / display options, a track code, and a track content;

[0011] The intelligent shielding module automatically shields the track code and track content hit by the shielding strategy in the waybill according to the shielding strategy.

[0012] In an optional solution, when formulating the shielding strategy, it also includes setting the scope of application, and the scope of application options include: waybill type, customer type and logistics type.

[0013] In an optional solution, the intelligent shielding module further includes a status editing module for adjusting the status of the shielding policy, wherein the status includes: to be enabled, enabled, and disabled.

[0014] In an optional solution, in the to-be-enabled and disabled states, the information of the created shielding policy can be re-edited.

[0015] In the optional scheme, the created shielding policy can be deleted in the pending, enabled and disabled states, and before the deletion operation is confirmed, the number of shielded tracks and the last triggering date of the track shielding policy are displayed as a basis for determining whether the shielding policy should be deleted.

[0016] In the optional scheme, the created shielding strategy can be enabled in the pending and disabled states; when enabled, the system detects the number of tracks that meet the shielding strategy within a set period in the background as a basis for determining whether the shielding strategy is enabled.

[0017] In the optional scheme, in the enabled state, the created standard track can be deactivated, and before the deactivation operation is confirmed, the number of blocked tracks and the last triggering date of the track blocking strategy are displayed as a basis for determining whether the blocking strategy is disabled.

[0018] In an optional solution, the logistics track management system also includes: a manual single-line shielding module, which is used to query and display all tracks under the waybill number according to the waybill number, manually select the specific node position that needs to be shielded, and perform the shielding operation.

[0019] In an optional solution, the logistics track management system further includes: a manual batch shielding module, which imports waybills in batches and performs batch shielding according to a shielding strategy, wherein the shielding strategy is:

[0020] Fill in the track code and track content that need to be shielded; the manual batch shielding module automatically shields the track code and track content hit by the shielding strategy in the waybill according to the track code and track content that need to be shielded.

[0021] The beneficial effects of the present invention are:

[0022] The intelligent shielding module of the present invention formulates a plurality of different shielding strategies, and according to the shielding strategies, automatically shields the track codes and track contents in the waybill that are hit by the shielding strategies.

[0023] Furthermore, the present invention combines intelligent shielding and manual shielding. In scenarios where manual shielding of logistics tracks is necessary, the present invention simplifies and optimizes the system operation pages and processes for manually shielding tracks, thereby reducing omissions or errors that may be caused by manual shielding.

[0030] Example 1

[0031] Reference Figures 1 to 9 , this embodiment provides a logistics track management system, including:

[0032] An intelligent shielding module, wherein the intelligent shielding module formulates a plurality of different shielding strategies, wherein information of the shielding strategies at least includes: a strategy name, shielding / display options, a track code, and a track content;

[0033] The intelligent shielding module automatically shields the track code and track content hit by the shielding strategy in the waybill according to the shielding strategy.

[0034] Specifically, the logistics track management system of this embodiment also includes: a standard track module, which formulates multiple different standard tracks, each of which has a unique track number; the information of the standard track includes at least: the content of the standard track and its matching rules; a matching module, which is used to automatically match the non-standard logistics track data according to the matching rules. Therefore, the non-standard tracks input by various systems and third-party companies can be converted into a unified standard track.

[0035] The logistics track management system has the following functions:

[0036] 1. Standard trajectory formulation function

[0037] When formulating standard track content and its matching rules, it is divided into exact matching and fuzzy matching. When "exact matching" is selected, it means that the rule will perform a complete consistency check. For example, at this time, the track content is set to "Order Confirmed", which means that it is considered a match only when the track content input by the external system is exactly the same as this string. When fuzzy matching (".* matching") is used, it means that the rule will use regular expressions for pattern matching. For example, at this time, setting the track content to "Inbound.*" means that the rule will match all track contents that start with "Inbound" and are followed by any characters (such as "Inbound JHB DC", "Inbound AIR DC", etc.). Matching rules only act on the matching of track content and are not used for matching other condition items.

[0038] In this embodiment, the information of the standard trajectory also includes: trajectory type, trigger function, trigger mode, trigger timing, primary node, secondary node; as other conditions for participating in matching.

[0039] Track type: You need to select international or local. Because the logistics processes and standard process requirements for international and local shipments are different, different logistics nodes will be involved.

[0040] First-level node: Display the contents of the drop-down box according to the settings in [Node Management].

[0041] Secondary node: The content of the drop-down box of the secondary node changes according to the selection of the primary node and is displayed according to the preset content in the node management.

[0042] Trigger function: What function is used for triggering, such as WMS system triggering when entering the warehouse, or PDA scanning QR code triggering when the courier picks up the package.

[0043] Trigger timing: At which logistics node will it be triggered, such as delivery, customs clearance, warehousing, etc.

[0044] Triggering method: manual trigger or system trigger. "Manual trigger" means that in a certain link of the logistics process, a staff member or customer performs a certain action, which generates a track in the system. For example, when the courier scans the QR code on the package with a PDA when picking up the package, a pickup track is generated in the system, which can be called manual triggering. "System trigger" means that after the system recognizes that a certain prerequisite has been completed, the system automatically enters the next process. For example, during customs clearance, the system recognizes Tax Paid (meaning that the tariff has been paid), then the system automatically enters the customs clearance delivery link.

[0045] The standard trajectory module further includes an editing unit, and the editing unit is used to re-edit the information of the created standard trajectory.

[0046] There are also other conditional items that do not participate in the matching: language, Chinese meaning, source, and remarks. These four items are not used as the criteria for judging whether an actual track is a standard track, and do not enter the matching rules. They are only used as information supplements for the standard track. Track code: The track code is automatically generated when the [Add Standard Track] function is triggered. When [Confirm Add] is clicked, the code is used. The track code can be regarded as the "unique identification code" of a standard track. The track code is unique. Even if the track is deactivated and deleted in the future, the code will not be reused.

[0047] 2. Intelligent shielding track function

[0048] The information of the shielding strategy of the intelligent shielding module includes: strategy name, shielding / display options, track code and track content. When formulating the shielding strategy, it also includes setting the scope of application, and the scope of application options include: waybill type, customer type and logistics type.

[0049] The policy name does not enter the logical rule judgment and is only used to distinguish and find the policy. Waybill type refers to the type of logistics order, such as international shipment, local shipment, etc. The reason for setting the waybill type option is that the system needs to identify and process different types of waybills, because each waybill type may have different processing rules or requirements. Customer type option, you can select specific customers or target all customers. Customers may have specific needs or specific expectations for track display. The system needs to block or display tracks according to customer requirements. Logistics type refers to the type of logistics operation, such as standard transportation, expedited delivery, etc. Different logistics types may involve different operating procedures or standards, so the blocking rules may be different.

[0050] The block / display option is the core part of the strategy, which is used to specify whether a specific track needs to be blocked (i.e. hidden) or released (i.e. displayed). The system decides whether to include or exclude certain information in the logistics track displayed to the outside based on these instructions.

[0051] Track code is a code used to uniquely identify a track. For example, each logistics event (such as arrival, shipment, receipt, etc.) has a unique code. The system will identify the specific track event based on this code to determine whether it needs to be blocked.

[0052] Track content refers to the description of specific logistics events, such as "goods arrival" or "in transit". If the track content contains sensitive information or content that does not meet customer expectations, the system can decide whether to block the information based on the rules. Among them, in the matching rules of track content, .* is a wildcard used to represent the match of any character (including empty characters). For example, "arrival.*" can match "arrival at warehouse", "arrival at destination" and other content. When matching rules, the system will replace the original content with .* to flexibly adapt to various actual situations. For example, if the rule is "shipment.*", it will match all tracks containing "shipment" and any subsequent content.

[0053] In this embodiment, the intelligent shielding module further includes a status editing module for adjusting the status of the shielding policy, wherein the status includes: to be enabled, enabled, and disabled.

[0054] In the pending and disabled states, the information of the created shielding policy can be re-edited. For policies in the "pending" state, all options for shielding track content can be modified, but for policies in the "disabled" state, only the notes can be edited. The shielding policy editing page of the [Edit] function is exactly the same as the shielding policy creation page of the [Create] function.

[0055] In this embodiment, the created shielding policy can be deleted in the pending, enabled, and disabled states, and the number of shielded tracks and the last triggering date of the track shielding policy are displayed before the deletion operation is confirmed as a basis for determining whether the shielding policy is deleted. The [Delete] function is designed with a [Second Confirmation] pop-up window. The operator needs to check the rule information and click the [Confirm Delete] button to delete the shielding policy, or click the [Cancel] button to cancel the deletion. The [Second Confirmation] pop-up page displays the [Number of Shielded Tracks] and [Last Triggering Time] of the track shielding policy. These two contents are important bases for the operator to determine whether the track shielding policy needs to be deleted. Number of shielded tracks: The number of tracks shielded by the intelligent shielding policy, and the data is refreshed once an hour every day. Latest triggering date: The date when the shielding policy was last triggered, displayed as year, month, and day in Chinese time.

[0056] In this embodiment, the created shielding policy can be enabled in the pending and disabled states; when enabled, the system detects the number of tracks that meet the shielding policy within the set period in the background as the basis for judging whether the shielding policy is enabled. The activation function is designed with a pop-up page for [Secondary Confirmation]. The page has a [Detection] function, which is used to detect the number of tracks that meet the shielding policy within 7 days in the entire system, and display [Detection Results] and [Example Waybill Number]. [Detection Results] and [Example Waybill Number] are important judgment bases for judging whether the shielding track policy is enabled. A flexible setting function for [Enablement Time] can also be designed. Allow the policy to be enabled immediately, or at a specified time in the future.

[0057] In this embodiment, in the enabled state, the created standard track can be deactivated. After checking [Number of blocked tracks] and [Last trigger time], click the [Confirm Deactivation] button to deactivate the blocking strategy, or click the [Cancel] button to cancel the deactivation.

[0058] 3. Manually shield track function

[0059] In this embodiment, the logistics track management system also includes: a manual single-line shielding module, which is used to query and display all tracks under the waybill number according to the waybill number, manually select the specific node position that needs to be shielded, and perform the shielding operation.

[0060] First, query all logistics tracks of the target order through the system, and display the query results in the form of a list or timeline in the user interface. This query function ensures that users can intuitively obtain the complete logistics track information of the order, thereby improving data visualization and user interaction experience. By selecting the location of the specific track to be blocked, click the [Block Track] button to enter the [Block Track] pop-up interface. After checking the information of the blocked track and confirming it in this interface, the track is blocked. The information on this page cannot be modified. The blocked track is not displayed to the public, and the track is not displayed on the current page.

[0061] In this embodiment, the logistics trajectory management system also includes: a manual batch shielding module, which imports waybills in batches and performs batch shielding according to a shielding strategy, and the shielding strategy is: fill in the trajectory code and trajectory content that need to be shielded; the manual batch shielding module automatically shields the trajectory code and trajectory content in the waybill that are hit by the shielding strategy according to the trajectory code and trajectory content that need to be shielded.

[0062] When batch blocking, click the [Batch Block] button to enter the batch blocking track pop-up window. Click the [Import Waybill Number] button to batch import the waybill numbers that need to be blocked in the Excel table. Select the track code. Enter / query the drop-down box to select the track content. When the matching rule of the track content is .*, fill in the specific content of .*. In the pop-up window, the operator needs to select the track code and select or query the track content through the input box or drop-down box. The matching rule of the track content adopts the form of regular expression, such as ".*" for matching, and the specific matching content needs to be filled in. The system displays the matching results in the pop-up window. If there is an error, the user can click the [Export] button, and the system will add a column of "Error Reason" after the error line of the original imported file and export the updated file. The naming format of the exported file is: "Batch blocking failed_{Export time, year, month, day, hour, minute, China time}", where "Export time" is the specific timestamp when the file is generated.

[0063] On the track shielding details page, operators are allowed to filter out the shielded tracks that meet the conditions by selecting "shielding time", "rule name", "shielded track content", "order number" and "reference number".

[0064] The logistics track management system realizes the system to automatically identify and capture the tracks that need to be blocked, and automatically completes the blocking of the tracks when they are displayed to specific customers. Intelligent blocking strategy rule formulation: An operation interface is developed to allow operators to define and edit the triggering rules of the blocking strategy. Logical rule engine: A logical rule engine is implemented to parse and match user-defined rules to automatically identify the tracks that need to be blocked. Track blocking algorithm: An algorithm is designed so that for order tracks that meet the waybill type, customer type and logistics type, the system automatically blocks the track corresponding to a certain track code. Status management of intelligent blocking strategy: Set the [Enable] and [Disable] [Intelligent Blocking Strategy] functions. The system provides the function of enabling and disabling the intelligent blocking strategy, allowing users to determine its enabled or disabled status based on the frequency of use of the strategy in the past 7 days. For the [Enable] [Intelligent Blocking Strategy] function, the enabling time is allowed to be set. The operator can set a specific time for the enabled intelligent blocking strategy so that the blocking operation is automatically triggered within a specific time period.

[0065] The logistics track management system simplifies the operation process when manually blocking tracks, and at the same time greatly reduces the omissions and errors of manually blocking tracks. The operator enters the order number of a certain order on the manual blocking page to search for the order. The system captures the complete logistics track of the order in the entire background system and displays it on the page in chronological order in an intuitive form. Each track provides a [Block Track] button. Click it to enter the pop-up window for secondary confirmation of the information, and confirm the track time and track content that need to be blocked again. After confirming [Block Track], the blocked track will not be displayed to the outside, and the current page will not display the track.

[0066] For batch blocking of order tracks, the manual operation process is simplified, and the system automatically checks for manual operation errors and reports errors. Excel table upload function: The pop-up page sets the function of uploading Excel tables, allowing batch input of track orders. The system captures the tracks of these orders based on the order numbers provided in the batch. Batch matching and blocking algorithm: An algorithm is implemented. According to the trigger conditions and blocking content set by the user, the system automatically matches eligible orders, and after a successful match, the system automatically blocks the preset content in the order track when displaying it to the outside world. Error detection and feedback mechanism: The system automatically checks for operational errors during the batch blocking process and provides clear error feedback. It also summarizes and displays the batch blocking results and failed blocking orders.

[0067] The logistics track management system of this embodiment has the following beneficial effects:

[0068] 1. Improve shielding efficiency and accuracy:

[0069] Intelligent automatic identification: Through intelligent shielding strategy rules and logic rule engines, the system can automatically identify tracks that do not meet standards or do not meet customer requirements, thereby achieving automatic shielding.
