Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of logistics informationization, and specifically relates to a business subcontracting system and method applied to a network freight platform. Background Art

[0002] With the booming development of Internet technology, online freight platforms have become the core driving force of the logistics industry, significantly improving the efficiency and transparency of logistics operations. However, in actual operations, these existing platforms still face a series of challenges in terms of business subcontracting matching and management:

[0003] Invoicing quota bottleneck: During a specific period, some companies may encounter the problem of tight invoicing quota, making it difficult to meet the shippers' demand for logistics service invoices in a timely manner, thereby hindering the smooth progress of business.

[0004] Payment limit: The payment limit set by the bank sometimes restricts the company from paying freight in a timely manner, which not only affects logistics efficiency but may also damage the legal rights and income stability of drivers.

[0005] To sum up, the online freight platforms under the existing technology have obvious deficiencies in terms of invoicing quotas, payment quotas, and temporary invoicing and payment. An innovative, efficient and transparent business subcontracting system and method is urgently needed to solve these problems, ensure timely payment of freight and timely issuance of invoices, and achieve a high degree of unification of capital flow, ticket flow, logistics flow and information flow (that is, "four flows in one"). Summary of the invention

[0006] The purpose of the present invention is to provide a business subcontracting system applied to an online freight platform to solve the technical problem that the platform system in the prior art fails to solve the impact of information related to invoicing amounts and payment amounts on subcontract matching in subcontract matching and management, and lacks the means to process relevant data, resulting in the system being unable to achieve the integration of four flows in the subcontract matching process.

[0007] The business subcontracting system applied to an online freight platform includes:

[0008] The subcontract configuration module is used to enable or disable the business subcontracting function for different cargo owners.

[0009] The subcontracting enterprise management module is used to configure data information of the subcontracting enterprise for business subcontracting. The data information of the subcontracting enterprise includes service fee rate, monthly invoicing amount of logistics service invoices and payment information.

[0010] The waybill management module is used to trigger the subcontracting process after the consignor's waybill is completed, and automatically match the appropriate receiving enterprise to generate the corresponding subcontract waybill.

[0011] The fee settlement module is used to automatically calculate the subcontracting fees based on the subcontracting service rate.

[0012] The exception handling module is used to provide a complete exception handling mechanism, which includes automatic detection of waybill errors, fee calculation exceptions, and fund payment failures, as well as the manual intervention process for corresponding exceptions.

[0013] Preferably, the payment information includes the bank-enterprise direct communication parameters and bank account information of the receiving enterprise, the waybill management module integrates waybill generation, status tracking, receipt upload and real-time update of waybill status, and the fee settlement module provides fee detail query function.

[0014] The present invention also provides a business subcontracting method applied to a network freight platform, which is applied to a business subcontracting system applied to a network freight platform as described above, and the business subcontracting method includes the following steps.

[0015] Step 1: Subcontract configuration. In the subcontract configuration module, the platform administrator enables or disables the subcontract function for the consignor.

[0016] Step 2: Intelligent matching of subcontracting process: the waybill management module triggers the subcontracting process after the waybill of the outsourcing consignor is completed, and then realizes intelligent matching between the consignor and the receiving enterprise.

[0017] Step 3: Automatically realize the generation and information synchronization, billing, bill generation and waybill status synchronization of the subcontracted waybill.

[0018] Step 4: Complete payment through the fee settlement module.

[0019] Preferably, the step one also configures the basic information, service fee rate, and monthly invoice quota of the receiving enterprise through the receiving enterprise management module, integrates bank-enterprise direct communication parameters and bank account information, and ensures that the receiving party has sufficient invoicing and payment capabilities to meet business needs.

[0020] Preferably, in step 2, the intelligent matching between the cargo owner and the receiving enterprise includes the following sub-steps.

[0021] Step 2.1, preliminary screening: determine whether the cargo owner has enabled business subcontracting. If the cargo owner has enabled business subcontracting, the platform will match the subcontracting party when placing orders and completing transactions. This step is based on the condition that the service fee rate given by the platform to the cargo owner must be greater than the service fee rate of the maintained subcontracting party, and preliminary screening of suitable subcontracting companies will form a subcontracting party set S1.

[0022] Step 2.2, invoicing amount verification: calculate the payable amount of the subcontracted waybill, and filter out the remaining monthly invoice invoicing amount that is sufficient to invoice the payable amount, forming a subcontractor set S2.

[0023] Step 2.3, select matching results based on service rates: The waybill management module first obtains the intersection of set S1 and set S2, and then sorts the receiving companies in the intersection from low to high according to the service rates, and selects the receiving company with the lowest rate as the matching result. If the matching result is not empty, the matching is completed, otherwise proceed to step 2.4.

[0024] Step 2.4: No matching process: If there is no suitable enterprise to undertake the contract, the system will promptly provide feedback and notify the platform administrator to handle the matter.

[0025] Preferably, in the step three, the subcontracted waybill is automatically synchronized with the corresponding information in the waybill executed by the consignee in the waybill management module; in the transportation service agreement using subcontracting, the consignee, i.e. the contractor, acts as the shipper, and the subcontracting company acts as the carrier; in the transportation service agreement not using subcontracting, the consignee, i.e. the contractor, acts as the shipper, and the driver acts as the carrier; then the cost calculation and bill generation are performed, and finally the waybill status is synchronized.

[0026] Preferably, bill generation is to calculate the billing fees of the contractor based on the configured service rate of the contractor enterprise, and generate a waybill bill; status synchronization includes the contractor's waybill status change, return upload, and freight adjustment, and this information is automatically synchronized to the contractor's waybill content. When the contractor makes a freight adjustment, the information can be automatically synchronized to the contractor's waybill bill and the service fee can be recalculated.

[0027] Preferably, in step 4, the corresponding process for the driver to collect payment is as follows.

[0028] Step 4.1: After the contractor makes payment successfully, the system automatically triggers the contractor to pay the driver, updates the driver's bill status through the bank-enterprise direct link, and synchronizes the payment result.

[0029] Step 4.2: When the driver modifies the payment account, the system will automatically synchronize the modified payment account to the billing information of the last recipient contacted by the driver.

[0030] Preferably, in step 4, the payment process between business subcontracting is as follows.

[0031] 1) After the platform receives payment from the shipper's waybill, it generates a recharge order for remittance payment based on the waybill bill of the downstream contractor's business subcontract.

[0032] 2) The platform creates a payment slip corresponding to the recharge slip, transfers the money to the bank account configured by the contractor on the platform through the bank-enterprise direct link, and reads and records the bank payment flow paid by the platform to the contractor through the bank-enterprise direct link.

[0033] 3) The platform then reads and records the income flow of the receiving party's collection account through the bank-enterprise direct connection system, connects it to the recharge order, realizes the recharge and payment of the waybill bill of the subcontracted business of the contractor, and then cancels the waybill bill.

[0034] Preferably, the steps of the business subcontracting method also include an error-proofing process, in which waybill errors, abnormal cost calculations, and failed fund payments are automatically detected by the exception handling module, and after the abnormality is determined, the module switches to the manual intervention process that corresponds to the abnormality.

[0035] The present invention has the following advantages: This solution is designed based on the existing actual network freight business scenario, taking into account the needs of the network freight platform for funds and invoicing circulation, and realizes more effective intelligent matching of the subcontracting parties, improves the flexibility of invoicing, and allows the business to be subcontracted when the invoicing quota is insufficient, avoiding the limit on the invoicing quota, and meeting the invoicing needs within a specific period. In the operation process of the system, it is guaranteed that the flow of funds can be checked and verified, the waybill, bill and payment process correspond to each other, and the system realizes real-time synchronization of information between each other, which is convenient for the participants to query the required information, realizes the "four flows in one", and overcomes the corresponding technical problems existing in the prior art.

[0037] Figure 2 The present invention is a flowchart of a business subcontracting method applied to an online freight platform from payment by the cargo owner to recharge, confirmation and verification of the waybill. DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0038] The specific implementation modes of the present invention are further explained in detail below by describing the embodiments with reference to the accompanying drawings, so as to help those skilled in the art to have a more complete, accurate and in-depth understanding of the inventive concept and technical solution of the present invention.

[0039] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the present invention provides a business subcontracting system applied to a network freight platform, comprising:

[0040] Subcontract configuration module: used to enable or disable the business subcontracting function for different cargo owners.

[0041] Subcontracting enterprise management module: used to configure data information of the subcontracting enterprises for business subcontracting. The data information of the subcontracting enterprises includes service fee rates, monthly invoicing amount of logistics service invoices and payment information.

[0042] Waybill management module: used to trigger the subcontracting process after the outsourcing consignor's waybill is completed, automatically match the appropriate receiving enterprise and generate the corresponding subcontract waybill.

[0043] Cost settlement module: used to automatically calculate subcontracting costs based on subcontracting service rates.

[0044] Exception handling module: used to provide a complete exception handling mechanism, which includes automatic detection of waybill errors, fee calculation exceptions, and fund payment failures, as well as the manual intervention process for corresponding exceptions.

[0045] Among the above modules, the data information configured in the contract-taking enterprise management module includes the bank-enterprise direct communication parameters and payment information such as bank accounts of the contract-taking enterprise. The waybill management module integrates many functions such as waybill generation, status tracking and receipt upload, and can update the waybill status in real time to ensure the accuracy and timeliness of logistics information. The fee settlement module provides a fee detail query function to facilitate the shipper, logistics company and driver to check the fees. The setting of the exception handling module ensures that the system can respond quickly and solve the problem when an abnormal situation occurs.

[0046] After the above-mentioned business subcontracting system applied to the network freight platform is applied, the present invention also provides a business subcontracting method applied to the network freight platform, which includes the following steps.

[0047] Step 1. Subcontract configuration: In the subcontract configuration module, the platform administrator uses an intuitive graphical interface to flexibly enable or disable the subcontract function for the shipper to cope with the actual situation of tight invoicing quota or limited payment quota, so that the system's matching process can take into account the impact of invoicing quota and payment quota related information on subcontract matching.

[0048] This step also configures key parameters such as the basic information, service fee rate, monthly invoice quota, etc. of the contracting enterprise through the contracting enterprise management module, and integrates bank-enterprise direct communication parameters and bank account information to ensure that the contracting party has sufficient invoicing and payment capabilities to meet business needs.

[0049] Step 2: Intelligent matching of subcontracting process. The waybill management module triggers the subcontracting process after the waybill of the outsourcing consignor is completed, and then realizes intelligent matching between the consignor and the receiving enterprise according to the following sub-steps.

[0050] Step 2.1, preliminary screening: determine whether the cargo owner has enabled business subcontracting. The cargo owner who has enabled business subcontracting will match the subcontractor when placing an order and completing a transaction on the platform; this step is based on the condition that the service fee rate given by the platform to the cargo owner must be greater than the service fee rate of the subcontractor maintained, and preliminary screening of suitable subcontractors is formed to form a subcontractor set S1. This preliminary screening can ensure that the subcontractor in the set can make the subcontracting cost controllable.

[0051] Step 2.2, invoicing amount verification: Calculate the payable amount of the subcontracted waybill, and select the subcontracting enterprises whose remaining monthly invoicing amount is sufficient to invoice the payable amount, forming the subcontracting party set S2. In this way, the subcontracting enterprises that can ensure the timely issuance of invoices can be selected.

[0052] Step 2.3, select matching results based on service rates: The waybill management module first obtains the intersection of set S1 and set S2, and then sorts the subcontracting enterprises in the intersection from low to high according to the service rates, and selects the subcontracting enterprise with the lowest rate as the matching result, that is, the subcontracting partner, so as to achieve invoicing of the amount of payables while reducing the subcontracting cost. If the matching result is not empty, the matching is completed, otherwise proceed to step 2.4.

[0053] Step 2.4: No matching process: If there is no suitable enterprise to take over the contract, that is, the intersection described in step 2.3 is an empty set, the system will promptly feedback the information and notify the administrator of the platform to handle it.

[0054] Step 3: Automatically realize the generation and information synchronization, billing, bill generation and waybill status synchronization of the subcontracted waybill.

[0055] After the matching of the receiving enterprise in the previous step is completed, the information of the waybill concluded by the cargo owner as the contracting party through the platform is synchronized to the receiving enterprise and the corresponding subcontracting waybill is automatically generated.

[0056] Specifically, in the waybill management module, the subcontracted waybill automatically synchronizes the information in the waybill executed by the consignor. The waybill number of the subcontracted waybill is formed by adding a suffix to the end of the waybill number of the corresponding consignor. For example, if the waybill number of the consignor (i.e., the contractor) is Y240923614712, then the waybill number of the corresponding subcontracting company (i.e., the subsequent contractor) is Y240923614712-1. In the transportation service agreement using subcontracting implemented by this method, the contractor is Party A (consignor) and the subcontracting company is Party B (carrier). In the transportation service agreement that does not use subcontracting, the contractor is Party A (consignor) and Party B (carrier) is the driver.

[0057] Then proceed with the cost calculation and bill generation. The billing fee of the receiving party is calculated according to the configured service rate of the receiving enterprise, and the waybill is generated.

[0058] Finally, the waybill status is synchronized. Status synchronization includes the waybill status change, receipt upload, freight adjustment, etc. of the contractor, and this information is automatically synchronized to the waybill content of the contractor. When the contractor makes freight adjustments, the information can be automatically synchronized to the waybill bill of the contractor and the service fee can be recalculated.

[0059] Step 4: Complete payment through the fee settlement module.

[0060] Among them, the corresponding process for the driver to collect payment is as follows.

[0061] Step 4.1: After the contractor successfully pays, the system automatically triggers the contractor to pay the driver. The driver's bill status is updated through the bank-enterprise direct link, and the payment result is synchronized.

[0062] Step 4.2: When the driver modifies the payment account, the system will automatically synchronize the modified payment account to the billing information of the last recipient contacted by the driver.

[0063] Among them, the payment process between business subcontracting is as follows.

[0064] 1) After the platform receives payment from the shipper’s waybill, it generates a recharge order for remittance payment based on the waybill bill of the downstream contractor’s business subcontract;

[0065] 2) The platform creates a payment slip corresponding to the recharge slip, transfers the money to the bank account configured by the contractor on the platform through the bank-enterprise direct link, and reads and records the bank payment flow of the platform to the contractor through the bank-enterprise direct link;

[0066] 3) The platform then reads and records the income flow of the receiving party's collection account through the bank-enterprise direct connection system, connects it to the recharge order, realizes the recharge and payment of the waybill bill of the subcontracted business of the contractor, and then cancels the waybill bill.

[0067] If there is a failure in docking the top-up order, payment failure or refund in the above steps, the system will automatically synchronize the status to the relevant waybill (the corresponding consignor waybill and subcontract waybill) and bill (the corresponding waybill bill), and notify the relevant parties (contractor, contractor and driver). This process ensures that the flow of funds can be checked and verified, realizing the "four flows in one".

[0068] Finally, the above steps also include error prevention processing. The above possible waybill errors, abnormal cost calculations, and failed fund payments are automatically detected by the exception handling module, and after the abnormality is determined, the abnormality is transferred to the manual intervention process. For example, when paying the driver, the platform automatically verifies whether the driver's receivable freight amount is consistent with the amount determined by the contractor to ensure that the freight is accurate.

[0069] The present invention is described above by way of example in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. It is obvious that the specific implementation of the present invention is not limited to the above-mentioned method. As long as various non-substantial improvements are made using the inventive concept and technical solution of the present invention, or the inventive concept and technical solution are directly applied to other occasions without improvement, they are all within the protection scope of the present invention.
