Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of automated logistics, and in particular to an information system combining warehousing and park vehicle dispatching and a shipping and transportation method. Background Art

[0002] At present, all industries are taking the path of smart factories, integrating production, storage, and transportation automation, which has given birth to many information systems such as MES, ERP, WMS, TMS, etc. The current WMS system is mainly responsible for warehouse management, including functions such as inbound and outbound management, while the TMS system is mainly responsible for vehicle management. Especially when it comes to multiple warehouses and there may be multiple WMS systems, for the TMS system, more information needs to be interacted, and there may be more information transmission problems. Summary of the invention

[0003] The purpose of the present invention is to provide an information system and a shipping and transportation method combining warehousing and park vehicle scheduling in order to more conveniently and flexibly manage the process from warehouse shipment to cargo transportation receipt.

[0004] The technical solution of the present invention is as follows:

[0005] An information system combining warehousing and park vehicle dispatching, comprising:

[0006] The inventory management module is responsible for synchronizing inventory information between warehouses and synchronizing the existing inventory in each WMS system to the current information system through an interface;

[0007] Platform management module, used to manage basic platform information and platform work calendar;

[0008] Document management module, used to manage original delivery orders, delivery plans and waybills;

[0009] The carrier information management module is used for carrier information management, driver management and vehicle management.

[0010] Furthermore, the system adopts the mainstream Java microservice technology stack and the microservice framework based on Spring Cloud Alibaba, which includes a variety of commonly used out-of-the-box functional modules. The core technology adopts Spring Boot, SpringCloud Alibaba, Mybatis Plus, RocketMQ, MinIO main framework and middleware, adopts Nacos registration and configuration center, integrates traffic guard Sentinel, and the front end is based on the vue-element-admin framework.

[0011] Furthermore, the functional modules include general technical components and services, microservice governance, RBAC functions, gateway unification, authentication, Xss anti-cross-site attack multiple storage systems, distributed transactions, distributed scheduled tasks, and multi-tenancy.

[0012] Furthermore, the inventory management module includes incoming management, outgoing management and inventory query. Incoming management mainly increases inventory by entering receipts and synchronizes shipments from warehouses that are not under the jurisdiction of WMS; outgoing management automatically generates outgoing orders after each vehicle picks up the goods.

[0013] Furthermore, the platform basic information management can accurately manage the corresponding platform under each warehouse, enter basic information and opening hours, and each platform is also associated with a vehicle model. Different platforms can accommodate vehicles of different sizes, and the entered opening time facilitates the system to calculate the pick-up time based on the vehicle information and reasonably plan the pick-up time for each vehicle.

[0014] The platform work calendar can view the vehicle reservation status of different platforms on the current page. After each vehicle is bound to a pick-up time, a record will be left on the corresponding platform work calendar.

[0015] Furthermore, the delivery documents are all the delivery documents sent from the upstream system and are saved uniformly;

[0016] The delivery plan is a delivery plan generated by the system based on the delivery document. It is used to associate with the carrier and serves as a voucher for subsequent transfer documents between carriers.

[0017] A waybill is a document generated by the carrier after the carrier loads the vehicle according to the delivery plan. It mainly corresponds to the shipping vehicle, and each vehicle has one waybill. The waybill is a document visible to the driver, used for information reporting and signing during transportation, and as a voucher for the final freight settlement.

[0018] Furthermore, the carrier management is to maintain basic information of the carriers, including the provinces and cities that each carrier can transport to and the freight rates involved;

[0019] Driver management is the maintenance of driver information under the carrier;

[0020] Vehicle information management includes entering basic vehicle information, including vehicle model and load capacity.

[0021] The present application also includes a shipping method, using an information system combining warehousing and park vehicle dispatching, including the following steps:

[0022] The upstream systems ERP, SAP, and MES ship goods internally, and simultaneously send the shipping order to this system. This system simultaneously generates the corresponding shipping plan and parses the delivery address of the shipping order;

[0023] After receiving the shipping plan, the system operator will reasonably assign a carrier to transport the goods based on the parsed provincial and municipal address information. Each assigned carrier shipping plan can only be viewed by the corresponding carrier in the system, and the carrier cannot see the shipping plans of other carriers.

[0024] After receiving their own delivery plans, the carrier staff will allocate vehicles and load them according to the delivery information, material volume and weight. The loading process is as follows: the carrier binds one or more delivery plans to a vehicle, and then the system automatically calculates the appropriate allocation plan based on the vehicle size, delivery material information, volume and quantity, and delivery date. The warehouse to be shipped, the platform where the vehicle arrives, and the pickup time information of the vehicle at each platform are combined to form a waybill. One vehicle corresponds to one waybill. At the same time, a delivery notification is sent to the corresponding warehouse system WMS, and the waybill information is notified to be sent to the driver's client. The driver can view the pickup time and pickup location information on the client.

[0025] When WMS starts shipping, it will inform this system synchronously, and the system will change the waybill status to start shipping in real time. When the shipping is completed, it will change the status to shipped. At this time, the driver will go to the corresponding location to pick up the goods, and transportation will start after the pick-up is completed;

[0026] When a waybill starts to be transported, it will go through several states: in transit - arrived - signed for. When in transit, the driver will upload the current location information through the client every day for the upstream salesperson to view. After arriving at the receiving location and signing for the delivery, the current transportation plan is completed;

[0027] When the waybill status is signed for, the system notifies the upstream system and automatically calculates the freight incurred based on the waybill information;

[0028] The salesperson will then review the settled waybills, check the freight and other information, and complete the document after the review is passed.

[0029] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0030] An information system and shipping and transportation method that combines warehousing and park vehicle scheduling, realizes integrated process processing from shipment to transportation, reduces system information interaction from shipment to transportation, and minimizes interface transmission; has basic inventory management; has basic vehicle management and scheduling functions; can ship goods on average based on actual inventory, and intelligently schedule vehicles to calculate reasonable time planning.
