In addition, components, features, and elements with the same name in different embodiments of the present application may have the same meaning or different meanings, and their specific meanings need to be determined by their explanation in the specific embodiment or further combined with the context of the specific embodiment.

[0042] It should be understood that, although the terms first, second, third, etc. may be used to describe various information in this article, these information should not be limited to these terms. These terms are only used to distinguish the same type of information from each other. For example, without departing from the scope of this article, the first information may also be referred to as the second information, and similarly, the second information may also be referred to as the first information. Depending on the context, the word "if" as used herein can be interpreted as "at the time of..." or "when..." or "in response to determination". Furthermore, as used in this article, the singular forms "one", "one" and "the" are intended to also include plural forms, unless there is an opposite indication in the context. It should be further understood that the terms "comprising", "including" indicate that there are described features, steps, operations, elements, components, projects, kinds, and / or groups, but do not exclude the existence, occurrence or addition of one or more other features, steps, operations, elements, components, projects, kinds, and / or groups. The terms "or" and "and / or" used herein are interpreted as inclusive, or mean any one or any combination. Thus, “A, B, or C” or “A, B and / or C” means “any of the following: A; B; C; A and B; A and C; B and C; A, B, and C.” An exception to this definition will occur only when a combination of elements, functions, steps, or operations are inherently mutually exclusive in some manner.

[0043] It should be understood that, although the various steps in the flowchart in the embodiment of the present application are displayed in sequence according to the indication of the arrows, these steps are not necessarily performed in sequence according to the order indicated by the arrows. Unless there is a clear explanation in this article, the execution of these steps does not have a strict order restriction, and it can be performed in other orders. Moreover, at least a portion of the steps in the figure may include a plurality of sub-steps or a plurality of stages, and these sub-steps or stages are not necessarily performed at the same time, but can be performed at different times, and their execution order is not necessarily performed in sequence, but can be performed in turn or alternately with other steps or at least a portion of the sub-steps or stages of other steps.

[0044] It should be noted that in this article, step codes such as S1 and S2 are used for the purpose of expressing the corresponding content more clearly and concisely, and do not constitute a substantial limitation on the order. When implementing the step, those skilled in the art may execute S2 first and then S1, etc., but these should all be within the scope of protection of this application.

[0045] It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only used to explain the present application and are not used to limit the present application.

[0046] In the subsequent description, the suffixes such as "module", "component" or "unit" used to represent elements are only used to facilitate the description of the present application, and have no specific meanings. Therefore, "module", "component" or "unit" can be used in a mixed manner.

[0047] In one embodiment, the present application can be applied to inventory transfer monitoring of agricultural machinery inventory circulation. In the existing spare parts inventory circulation system in the industry, the spare parts inventory information between various inventory units (for example, including: service personnel (personal warehouse), mobile vehicles, provincial central warehouse, regional network warehouse, dealer warehouse, etc.) is asymmetric, and the staff cannot effectively obtain the overall inventory distribution of spare parts for inventory allocation.

[0048] See also Figure 1 , is a method for monitoring inventory transfer provided in an embodiment of the present application. The method can be executed by an electronic device provided in an embodiment of the present application. The electronic device can be implemented in software and / or hardware. In this embodiment, the execution subject of the method is a computer (tablet computer, laptop computer, smart phone, etc.) as an example. The method provided in this embodiment includes:

[0049] Step S1: Determine goods demand information based on current inventory information.

[0050] Specifically, it can include the following four steps: (1) Inventory level analysis: It is necessary to understand the current inventory level. Inventory information may include, for example, the quantity of each product, storage location, and their shelf life or expiration date; (2) Demand forecasting: Based on historical sales data, market trends, seasonal factors, promotional activities, economic indicators, etc., forecast the demand for various commodities in the future; (3) Setting safety stock: In order to cope with demand fluctuations and supply chain disruptions, a safety stock level is usually set to ensure that there is still enough inventory to meet customer demand when the supply chain is delayed or demand suddenly increases; (4) Replenishment: Based on demand forecasts and safety stock levels, formulate replenishment strategies, including the frequency, quantity and time of replenishment, and then generate a product demand information.

[0051] Step S2: displaying the supply-side warehousing information and / or location information matching the cargo demand information on a map according to the cargo demand information.

[0052] Among them, the map can be a dynamic electronic map that reflects the changes and movements of natural and human phenomena. It can integrate logistics and transportation information, order information and warehousing information to display the inventory flow and arrival of a product between warehouses, service personnel and dealers in real time, improve the visualization level of inventory management, help customers place orders accurately, help companies optimize inventory configuration, and reduce inventory backlogs and out-of-stock phenomena. In addition, dynamic maps can also help companies better predict market demand, quickly respond to changes in the supply chain, and improve overall operational efficiency.

[0053] In one embodiment, after entering the map page, relevant information such as goods, warehouses or distributors can be found in the query interface according to the goods demand information, and the overall inventory information and location information are visualized to intuitively display the overall inventory distribution. For example, if you enter a material or material code, a list of all warehouses and their distances and inventory quantities will pop up, and the warehouse locations within a certain range will be displayed on the map. If you enter a specific warehouse or distributor, the corresponding geographical location will be displayed on the map, and the list of materials and quantities in the corresponding warehouse will pop up. In this way, the visual display of material reserve information and warehouse geographical information is intuitive and clear, and the inventory information between inventory units can be shared and quickly allocated and used, which improves the inventory turnover rate and delivery efficiency of goods.

[0054] Step S3: Determine the target supplier in the map according to the warehouse information and / or location information.

[0055] In one embodiment, the user can evaluate all suppliers obtained in step S2, for example, suppliers whose inventory does not meet demand can be excluded based on storage information only, suppliers whose warehouses are located in other provinces can be excluded based on location information only, suppliers whose warehouses do not have target goods can be excluded based on storage information, and suppliers whose warehouses are located in a certain city can be excluded based on location information, without limitation. In this way, the user can determine the target supplier with which he or she wishes to cooperate in the map according to his or her own needs.

[0056] Step S4: Obtain cargo transfer information generated by the target supplier according to cargo demand information, and update inventory information in the map according to the cargo transfer information.

[0057] In one embodiment, after receiving the goods demand information sent by the user, the target supply side will generate a goods transfer information and display it in real time on the map. The inventory information of both parties can be updated on the map according to the goods transfer information. For example, the user's goods demand information is 100 boxes of a certain accessory. After purchasing from the target supply side, the user's warehouse inventory on the map will be dynamically updated to "a certain accessory + 100 boxes", and correspondingly, the warehouse inventory of the target supply side will be dynamically updated to "a certain accessory - 100 boxes". At the same time, the map will also dynamically update and display goods transfer information such as shipping time, transportation information, transportation goods information, and estimated arrival time.

[0058] In this way, users can plan and configure warehouses under their management in advance through the cargo transfer information displayed on the map, avoiding warehouse backlogs and cost waste. The target supply side (upstream) can provide more efficient and diversified sales services based on more accurate logistics time (for example, step-by-step price increases within a few hours of delivery time). Even if there is an urgent need, it can respond quickly to reduce the greater risk of delays. In turn, it reduces inventory reserve costs and transportation costs, reduces the risk of cargo backlogs, and facilitates companies to prepare and produce more accurately and efficiently.

[0059] In one embodiment, the display of the supply-side warehousing information and / or the location information matching the cargo demand information on the map according to the cargo demand information in step S2 includes:

[0060] S21. Determine the type corresponding to the cargo demand information.

[0061] In one embodiment, the cargo demand information includes a preset first type and a second type, wherein the preset first type corresponds to cargo-related information, such as the official name, code, and unified informal name of the cargo in the industry, and the preset second type corresponds to supply-side related information, such as the warehouse name (nickname) and company name of the supply side.

[0062] S22. If the cargo demand information is of the preset first type, the warehousing information and / or location information of the supply side matching the cargo demand information is displayed on the map through a secondary search method.

[0063] In one embodiment, when the cargo demand information is of the preset first type, a preliminary screening is first performed based on the cargo demand information, and then, based on the screening results, the search conditions (such as price, delivery time, distance, cargo inventory, etc.) are further refined for a secondary search to find a more accurate matching result. Finally, the warehousing information and / or location information of the supply side that matches the demand is displayed on a map, so that the user can intuitively see the overall inventory distribution and the geographical location of each warehouse.

[0064] S23. If the cargo demand information is of the preset second type, the warehousing information and / or location information of the supply side matching the cargo demand information is displayed on the map through a three-level search method.

[0065] In one embodiment, when the cargo demand information is of the preset second type, a preliminary screening is first performed based on the cargo demand information, and then based on the screening results, the search conditions (such as cargo name, cargo inventory, etc.) are further refined to perform a secondary search to find a more accurate matching result. Again, based on the screening results, the search conditions (such as cargo number, cargo nickname, etc.) are further refined. Finally, based on the screened results, the warehousing information and / or location information of the supply side that matches the demand is displayed on a map.

[0066] It can be understood that through steps S22 and S23, users can quickly find suitable suppliers, optimize logistics routes, and improve the efficiency of the supply chain.

[0067] In one embodiment, the display of the supply-side warehousing information and / or location information matching the cargo demand information on the map by the secondary search method in step S22 includes:

[0068] S221. In response to inputting a commodity name or a commodity code in a preset first filter column, displaying the warehousing information of the supplier matching the commodity name or the commodity code on the map.

[0069] In one embodiment, the map has a preset first filter bar and a second filter bar. The user can enter the name of the goods or the code of the goods in the preset first filter bar, and then the warehousing information of the supply side matching the name of the goods or the code of the goods will be displayed in the map. In this embodiment, the warehousing information is the quantity of goods. Exemplarily, in response to entering "M6 expansion combination screws" in the first filter box, the quantity of goods on the supply side equipped with "M6 expansion combination screws" in the warehouse will be displayed in the map, and will be highlighted in the map.

[0070] S222. In response to selecting at least one of warehouse list information, distance information or cargo quantity information in a preset second filter column, displaying the location information of the supply end on a map.

[0071] In one embodiment, the user can select at least one of the warehouse list information, distance information or cargo quantity information in the preset second filter bar according to the needs, and then the location information of the supply end that meets the secondary filtering conditions will be displayed in the map. In this embodiment, the location information is the specific address of the supply end. Exemplarily, based on step S221, the supply end configured with "M6 expansion combination screws" in the warehouse is displayed in the map at this time. In response to selecting any warehouse in the warehouse list information from the second filter box, or the distance information is within the province or within the preset kilometers, or the cargo quantity information is greater than 1,000 boxes, the location information of the selected warehouse, the location information of the warehouse located within the province or within the preset kilometers, and the location information of the warehouse with cargo quantity information greater than 1,000 boxes will be displayed in the map respectively, and highlighted in the map.

[0072] In one embodiment, the display of the supply-side storage information and / or location information matching the cargo demand information on the map by the three-level search method in step S23 includes:

[0073] S231. In response to inputting a warehouse name or a supplier name in a preset first filter column, displaying location information of suppliers matching the warehouse name or the supplier name on a map.

[0074] In one embodiment, the map has a preset first filter bar, a second filter bar, and a third filter bar. The user can enter the warehouse name or the supplier name in the preset first filter bar, and then the location information of the supplier matching the warehouse name or the supplier name will be displayed in the map. In this embodiment, the location information is the specific address of the warehouse or the supplier. Exemplarily, in response to entering "XX Accessories Processing Factory" or "XX Technology Industry Co., Ltd." in the first filter box, the specific addresses of "XX Accessories Processing Factory" and "XX Technology Industry Co., Ltd." will be displayed in the map, and highlighted in the map.

[0075] It can be understood that all regional outlets under the same enterprise can share the same warehouse name and supplier name. In other words, when a warehouse name or supplier name is entered in the first filter bar in the map, the result obtained must be greater than one.

[0076] S232. In response to selecting at least one of the cargo name information, cargo quantity information or distance information in the preset second filter column, and entering the cargo name or cargo code in the preset third filter column, the warehousing information of the supply side is displayed on the map.

[0077] In one embodiment, first, the user can select at least one of the quantity information or distance information of the goods in the preset second filter column according to the needs, and secondly, the user can enter the name of the goods or the code of the goods in the preset third filter column according to the needs. Then, the warehousing information of the supply side that meets the three filtering conditions will be highlighted in the map. In this embodiment, the warehousing information is the specific quantity of goods on the supply side. Exemplarily, based on step S231, the specific addresses of multiple supply sides whose warehouse name is "XX Accessories Processing Factory" are displayed in the map at this time. In response to selecting the cargo quantity information as greater than 1,000 pieces from the second filter box, or the distance information as within the province or within a preset number of kilometers, and in response to entering the cargo name information as "DN90mm nylon eccentric sleeve" in the third filter box, the map will display the specific cargo quantity of the "XX Accessories Processing Factory" with more than 1,000 pieces of "DN90mm nylon eccentric sleeve" and the specific cargo quantity of the "XX Accessories Processing Factory" with a warehouse equipped with "DN90mm nylon eccentric sleeve" and located within the province, and they will be highlighted on the map.

[0078] Among them, the three-level search method can gradually narrow the search scope and improve the accuracy and efficiency of the search. Displaying this information on the map can help users intuitively see the geographical location of each warehouse and how well they match their needs. In actual applications, the three-level search method will combine GIS (geographic information system) technology to display warehouse locations, traffic routes, and possible distribution routes through a map interface, thereby providing users with comprehensive decision support.

[0079] In one embodiment, determining the target supplier in the map according to the warehouse information and / or the location information in step S3 includes:

[0080] S31. Determine whether the quantity of goods corresponding to the storage information is greater than a preset quantity threshold, and determine whether the distance corresponding to the location information is less than a preset distance threshold.

[0081] In one embodiment, for warehousing information, it is determined whether the corresponding quantity of goods is greater than a preset quantity threshold, and for location information, it is determined whether the distance between it and the user's current warehouse is less than a preset distance threshold.

[0082] S32. Determine as a target supplier a supplier whose quantity of goods corresponding to the storage information is greater than a preset quantity threshold, and / or whose distance corresponding to the location information is less than a preset distance threshold.

[0083] In one embodiment, for warehousing information, the supplier whose quantity of goods corresponding to the warehousing information is greater than a preset quantity threshold is determined as the target supplier, or, for location information, the supplier whose distance corresponding to the location information is less than a preset distance threshold is determined as the target supplier, or, the supplier whose quantity of goods corresponding to the warehousing information is greater than the preset quantity threshold and whose distance corresponding to the location information is less than the preset distance threshold is determined as the target supplier. In this way, through accurate warehousing information and location information, the logistics route can be optimized, transportation time and cost can be reduced, and the operational efficiency of the entire supply chain can be improved, and accurate inventory data can help avoid excessive inventory or inventory shortage, thereby reducing capital occupation and warehousing costs.

[0084] In one embodiment, after determining the target supplier in the map according to the warehouse information and / or the location information in step S3, the method further includes:

[0085] S33. According to the identity information of the first object for generating the cargo demand information, a second object list matching the identity information is obtained from the target supply end.

[0086] It is understandable that, on the enterprise side, inventory transfer involves multiple processes, such as sales, collection, transfer, return, and other different enterprise activities and business processes. In the existing technology, each enterprise activity may involve multiple roles to make decisions and judgments, and on the supply side, multiple roles need to be arranged for docking. The chaotic business docking makes it difficult for the enterprise side to implement management and technology.

[0087] In one embodiment, the goods demand information is generated by a user at the enterprise end, that is, a first object, and the first object capable of generating the goods demand information at the enterprise end has identity information corresponding to its position. In contrast, the supply end is also configured with a staff member with the same position as that at the enterprise end, that is, a second object, for business docking with the first object. In this embodiment, a list of second objects matching the identity information of the first object is obtained from the target supply end.

[0088] S34: Establish a connection with a target supply end according to the first object and the second object list.

[0089] In one embodiment, the connection between the enterprise end and the target supply end is established based on the first object and the second object list obtained in step S33. In this way, by excluding the staff on the supply end whose identity information does not match the first object, the response speed of the docking work is improved, resource optimization and efficiency improvement are achieved, and the difficulty of implementing management and technology on the enterprise end is greatly reduced.

[0090] See also Figure 2In one embodiment, the step of establishing a connection with a target supply end according to the first object and the second object list in step S34 includes:

[0091] S341. Determine a second object from a second object list according to the identity information of the first object and the inventory transfer type corresponding to the cargo demand information.

[0092] In one embodiment, in the enterprise side and the supply side, the identity information of the first object and the second object are limited to: order administrator, direct service personnel, mobile vehicle / escort, dealer. The inventory transfer type has a "transfer" process for overall planning by managers within the enterprise side, and a service process for designated personnel or dealers within the enterprise side to execute, and the service process includes: "sales", "receipt and return" and "return order" processes.

[0093] like Figure 2 As shown, an inventory transfer monitoring system provided in an embodiment of the present application is provided. The system can be executed by an electronic device provided in an embodiment of the present application. The electronic device can be implemented in software and / or hardware. In this embodiment, the execution subject of the system is taken as a computer (tablet computer, laptop computer, smart phone, etc.) as an example.

[0094] It can be understood that the inventory transfer monitoring system can be used by the staff of the same enterprise's regional outlets distributed across the country, and can also be used by external dealers to log in, and the operation role and delivery role in the figure will also be switched accordingly according to the actual situation. For example, there is a first regional outlet and a second regional outlet. In March, the first regional outlet lacks accessory X, and it determines the second regional outlet as the target supply end. At this time, the first regional outlet acts as the enterprise end, and its internal staff is the operation role, and the second regional outlet acts as the supply end, and its internal staff is the delivery role. On the contrary, in October, the second regional outlet lacks accessory Y, and it determines the staff of the first regional outlet as the target supply end. At this time, the first regional outlet acts as the supply end, and its internal staff is the delivery role, and the second regional outlet acts as the enterprise end, and its internal staff is the operation role.

[0095] On the enterprise side, if the identity information of the first object is an order administrator, then the inventory transfer types corresponding to the goods demand information generated by it may include "transfer" and "return"; if the identity information of the first object is a direct service personnel, then the inventory transfer types corresponding to the goods demand information generated by it may include "take-out and return" and "return"; if the identity information of the first object is a mobile vehicle / escort, then the inventory transfer types corresponding to the goods demand information generated by it may include "take-out and return"; if the identity information of the first object is a dealer, then the inventory transfer types corresponding to the goods demand information generated by it may include "sales".

[0096] In this embodiment, the second object is determined from the second object list according to the identity information of the first object and the inventory transfer type corresponding to the cargo demand information. Exemplarily, when the identity information of the first object is an order administrator, and the inventory transfer type corresponding to the cargo demand information generated by it is a "transfer" process, one of the "order administrator" and "mobile vehicle / escort" in the second object list is selected as the second object. Specifically, a "mobile vehicle / escort" is a freight vehicle loaded with a variety of accessories and traveling on the roads all over the country at all times, also known as a "mobile warehouse". Continuing with the above example, the first object can, for example, select one from the "order administrator" and "mobile vehicle / escort" in the second object list according to limiting conditions such as distance, quantity of goods, and delivery time, and determine it as the second object. In this way, the relatively fixed second object (shipping role) on the supply side is familiar with the business processes and communication history of both parties, and can quickly understand the needs and problems of the first object (operation role), thereby improving the efficiency of communication.

[0097] In one implementation, when a first role of any identity information operates a stock transfer type that is not permitted, it needs to be reported for approval.

[0098] S342: Establish a process node between the first object and the second object to establish a connection with the target supply end.

[0099] In one implementation, a process node between the first object and the second object is established in the system to achieve the purpose of connecting the enterprise end with the target supply end. In this way, as the delivery role on the supply end, the second object can continuously accumulate experience in continuous cooperation and ensure the consistency of information transmission. On the other hand, it has a deep understanding of the details and background of the cooperation and can make decisions quickly when necessary, speeding up the progress of the project or cooperation, which helps to establish a stable and efficient communication mechanism and promote the long-term development of the cooperative relationship between the two parties.

[0100] In one embodiment, updating the inventory information in the map according to the cargo transfer information in step S4 includes:

[0101] S41, obtaining estimated delivery time information, transportation route information, cargo-related information and estimated arrival information in the cargo transfer information.

[0102] In one embodiment, after the supply side receives the goods demand information sent by the first object on the enterprise side, the corresponding second object will generate goods transfer information, wherein the goods transfer information at least includes estimated delivery time information, transportation route information, goods related information and estimated arrival information.

[0103] S42. Update inventory information in the map according to estimated delivery time information, transportation route information, cargo-related information, and estimated arrival information.

[0104] In one implementation, the supply side will contact a third-party logistics company to execute the delivery process, and update the inventory information on the map based on the estimated delivery time information, transportation route information, cargo-related information, and estimated arrival information. In this way, the enterprise side can view all dynamics related to the cargo in real time from the map, and then plan and configure the warehouses over which it has management rights in advance to avoid warehouse backlogs and cost waste.

[0105] Understandably, based on the above, the existing spare parts inventory circulation system in the existing industry obviously has the following defects:

[0106] (1) Supply chain collaboration is difficult, and achieving multi-party collaboration requires close communication among all parties. For example, during the dispatch of goods, the order manager needs to contact the nearby regional outlets and mobile vehicles to inquire about the satisfaction of the demand. If the inventory does not meet the demand for parts, it needs to be shipped from the provincial central warehouse. If the provincial central warehouse has insufficient inventory, it needs to organize procurement or notify the self-made factory to produce and dispatch. The process is not simple, transparent, smooth, or fast.

[0107] (2) Extremely dependent on data accuracy. The effectiveness of the system depends on real-time, accurate data provided by all parties. If the data is inaccurate, asymmetric, or delayed, it may lead to excess or shortage of inventory, which will affect the overall performance of the system and the quality of decision-making.

[0108] (3) Due to the uncertainty of logistics and distribution and the lack of smooth information transmission, enterprises may encounter delays or uncertainty in delivery information when inquiring about delivery time, which has a negative impact on the supplier's reputation and customer satisfaction.

[0109] Based on this, the inventory transfer monitoring system includes a warehouse management module, a customer management module, a logistics information module and a map information module. Among them, the warehouse management module is the material basis. Through the information of the warehouse management module, the inventory of each regional branch warehouse can be collected; the customer management module can provide relevant information of dealers; the logistics information module can provide real-time logistics transportation information and in-transit goods information; the map information module obtains the above three types of information and then realizes dynamic visualization of information on the map.

[0110] By integrating the data provided by the above modules with the map information module, omni-channel inventory sharing can be achieved. The enterprise side can assist in placing orders through inventory visualization, quickly implement the inventory transfer process, improve the inventory turnover rate and delivery efficiency of goods, and effectively reduce the inventory cost and scheduling cost of accessories.

[0111] In addition, the enterprise side can obtain more accurate changes in the demand for goods from both the supply and demand sides from the warehouse management module and the customer management module, and combine historical data with real-time data to provide accurate demand forecasts through big data analysis, helping the enterprise side to better cope with market fluctuations and sudden demands. The organic combination of the map information module and the logistics information module can strengthen the coordination between various links in the supply chain, improve information transparency and sharing, and reduce information lags and errors.

[0112] In summary, the inventory transfer monitoring method or inventory transfer monitoring system described above has the following technical effects: (1) The dynamic cargo reserve information and warehouse geographic information are visualized, which is intuitive and clear, making it more convenient for enterprise users to place orders and making the information more transparent; (2) The system automatically brings out the information of both parties based on the information of the corresponding inventory flow process, which is easy to operate; (3) With the assistance of the logistics information module, the arrival time and delivery time of the goods in the transportation status can be viewed, which is convenient for the warehouse to receive the corresponding goods in time and perform corresponding warehousing management; (4) The warehouse material in and out information is obtained in real time, and the flow trend of the warehouse goods can be predicted based on the information, which is convenient for the warehouse to make inventory and stocking plans.
