Description

Technical Field

[0001] The embodiments of the present disclosure relate to the technical field of big data and e-commerce platforms, and particularly to a method and device for storing data. Background Art

[0002] In the prior art, merchants who sell items through the platform need to pay commissions to the platform according to the commission rate or a fixed amount of commission. The commission rates or fixed amounts for items in different categories are different. There is a many-to-many relationship between merchants and categories. One category corresponds to multiple merchants, and one merchant operates multiple categories. For example, merchant a operates the third-level category A, so all versions of A's price information (commission rate or fixed amount) will be saved. Merchant b operates two third-level categories A and B, so all versions of A and B's price information will be saved. If the operator adjusts the category commission rate of the third-level category A, for example, from 5% to 4.5%, then the merchant category commission rate for a specified time period will be manually synchronized to merchants a and b.

[0003] The adjustment of price information of various categories brings huge workload to operators, and the synchronization of price information data of various categories of merchants also puts pressure on the system and database, especially when there are many price information adjustments of categories, the pressure is particularly obvious. It causes huge waste of database storage and greatly reduces data query performance. Summary of the invention

[0021] The method and device for storing data provided by the embodiments of the present disclosure add a price type identifier to the merchant's price list to distinguish whether the price type used is a standard type or a special type. The standard type represents that the standard price in the price list of the platform server is used to calculate the commission at that moment. The special type represents that the special price in the merchant's price list is used to calculate the commission at that moment (the special price agreed upon by the merchant and the platform operator when entering the platform).

[0022] When the platform operator enters the contract for the merchant on the page, he can specify whether the price of a certain category is standard or special. If the standard is selected, the current category price is directly checked and cannot be changed; if the special is selected, the special price can be filled in. In this way, when saving the merchant category commission rate, the standard rate does not need to be stored, and only the special rate can be stored.

[0023] When querying the price of a target category of a specified merchant, first check the merchant's price list. If you can't find it, directly check the price list of the platform server that is currently in effect for this category. If you find the price list of the merchant that is currently in effect, if this category is special, then it means you have found it. If this category is standard, you need to check the platform price list that is currently in effect for this category (that is, the standard price may be adjusted at any time, and you cannot use the special price of this merchant for this type as the price of the category that is currently in effect is the most authoritative).

[0024] It should be understood that the content described in this section is not intended to identify the key or important features of the embodiments of the present disclosure, nor is it intended to limit the scope of the present disclosure. Other features of the present disclosure will become easily understood through the following description. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0032] The present disclosure is further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It is understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only used to explain the relevant invention, rather than to limit the invention. It is also necessary to explain that, for ease of description, only the parts related to the relevant invention are shown in the accompanying drawings.

[0033] It should be noted that, in the absence of conflict, the embodiments and features in the embodiments of the present disclosure may be combined with each other. The present disclosure will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and in combination with the embodiments.

[0034] Figure 1 An exemplary system architecture is shown to which an embodiment of a method for storing data or an apparatus for storing data disclosed in the present invention can be applied.

[0035] like Figure 1 As shown, the system architecture may include a merchant terminal, a buyer terminal, a platform server and a database.

[0036] The platform's operators can pre-set standard prices for various categories and generate a price list for the platform server, including standard price information, effective time, creation time, and other information for each category.

[0037] The contract information for the use of the platform signed by the merchant through the merchant terminal and the platform may include the categories of items sold by the merchant and the price information of each category, for example, the standard price or special price of the platform's commission. The contract information may also include the effective time. The merchant's price list is generated based on the contract information. If the contract is a standard price contract, the corresponding category in the merchant's price list is only marked as a standard price, and the specific price does not need to be filled in. If the contract is a special price contract, the corresponding category in the merchant's price list is not only marked as a special price, but also needs to be filled in with a specific price.

[0038] The merchant's price list and the platform server's price list may be stored in a cache and / or a database.

[0039] After a customer purchases a merchant's product from the platform through a buyer's terminal, the platform server will obtain the price corresponding to the category of the product from the platform server's price list or the merchant's price list, and calculate the commission that the merchant needs to pay based on the price.

[0040] Continue to refer Figure 2 , shows a process 200 of an embodiment of a method for storing data according to the present disclosure. The method for storing data comprises the following steps:

[0041] Step 201, in response to receiving the contract information, parse the name of the target merchant and the price information of each category from the contract information.

[0042] In this embodiment, the execution subject of the method for storing data (for example Figure 1The platform server shown in the figure can receive the contract information from the merchant terminal through a wired connection or a wireless connection. The contract information can be a standard contract, and the name of the filled-in target merchant and the price information of each category can be parsed from the contract information through the slot of the contract template. If it is a non-standard contract, the name of the target merchant and the price information of each category can be parsed from the contract information through a natural language model.

[0043] Price information may include price type (standard price or special price) and specific price. Price may be a commission rate or a fixed commission. Contract information may also include effective time period and creation time (time when price is signed).

[0044] The following description takes the commission rate as an example of price information.

[0045] Before explaining the solution of this application, let's first explain what category commission rates and merchant category commission rates are.

[0046] The category commission rate is a time-based commission rate for the third-level category dimension. It has an effective start time and an effective end time. The rate may be different for each effective time period. The operator can enter the rate for a specified time period in the background. Take the third-level category A as an example

[0047]

[0048] Table 1

[0049] Check the category commission rate on 2022.10.01 and it is 3.5%

[0050] Check the category commission rate on July 10, 2023, and find 2 versions: 5% and 4.5%. According to the creation time, take the most recent rate: 4.5%

[0051] The merchant category commission rate is a time-based commission rate for the merchant dimension. After the merchant enters the platform and selects a category, the current category commission rate will be added to the merchant category commission rate. Of course, there are exceptions. Some large merchants will negotiate with the platform for a designated merchant category commission rate when signing a contract. For example, if a merchant has an order amount of 100 yuan for category A (third-level category) and the commission rate is 5%, then the merchant commission earned by the platform is 5 yuan.

[0052] For example, if a merchant B opens two third-level categories: A and B, the commission rates are shown in the following table:

[0053]

[0054] Table 2

[0055] Check the commission rate of merchant B on 2023.06.10. A is 5% and B is 4%.

[0056] Check the commission rate of merchant B on July 10, 2023. B is 4%. A found two versions: 5% and 4.5%. According to the creation time, the most recent rate is 4.5%.

[0057] Step 202, obtaining the price list of the target merchant.

[0058] In this embodiment, if no price list has been established for the target merchant, a blank price list with only a header but no content can be obtained. The established price list is as follows:

[0059]

[0060]

[0061] Table 3

[0062] Check the commission rate of merchant B on 2023.06.10. A is 5% and B is 4%.

[0063] Check the commission rate of merchant B on July 10, 2023. B is 4%. A finds two versions: 5% and 4.5%. According to the creation time, the most recent rate is taken: 4.5%.

[0064] Step 203: For a category whose price information is a special price, the special price is associated with the category and stored in the price table, and the category object is recorded as a special type.

[0065] In this embodiment, new records may be added to the existing price list, and the original data may be retained rather than replaced.

[0066] The solution of this application adds an identifier (standard or special) to the merchant category commission rate. Please see the table above for details. The meaning of this identifier is explained below.

[0067] Special: represents the merchant category commission rate at that moment (the special rate agreed upon by the merchant and the operator when they join the merchant)

[0068] When operators enter contracts for merchants on the page, they can specify whether the commission rate for a certain category is standard or special. If you choose special, you can fill in the special rate.

[0069] Step 204: For a category whose price information is a standard price, record the category object in the price table as a standard type.

[0070] In this embodiment, standard prices of various categories of different merchants are pre-stored in a price list of the platform server, and the price list of the target merchant does not store standard prices.

[0071] Standard: represents the merchant category commission rate at that moment. If you select Standard, you will directly check the current category commission rate and cannot change it. In this way, when saving the merchant category commission rate, the standard rate does not need to be stored, and only the special rate can be stored.

[0072] Every time the standard price changes, there is no need to update the merchant's price list. You only need to update the price list of the platform server. There is no need to synchronize the merchant's price list. At the same time, the data storage of the database will be greatly reduced.

[0073] In some optional implementations of this embodiment, the method further includes: receiving a price change message of a target category; if the price change message does not include the name of the merchant to be changed, modifying the price of the target category in the price list of the platform server according to the price change message; otherwise, modifying the price of the target category in the price list of the merchant to be changed according to the price change message. A price change message is generated when an operator adjusts a price. The price change message does not contain the merchant name if it is a change to a standard price, but must contain the merchant name if it is a change to a special price. To change the standard price of a category, you only need to modify the price list of the platform server without modifying the price lists of all merchants using that category.

[0074] In some optional implementations of this embodiment, the method further includes: in response to receiving a request to query the price of a target category of a target merchant, accessing the price list of the target merchant; if the access is not possible, accessing the price list of the platform server; and querying the standard price corresponding to the target category from the price list of the platform server. After the buyer purchases the item, the platform will deduct the merchant's commission, and it is necessary to query the price of the category to which the item belongs for the merchant. The merchant's price list is searched first, and if the query is not possible, in order to prevent deadlock, the standard price corresponding to the category is directly used.

[0075] In some optional implementations of this embodiment, the method further includes: in response to receiving a request to query the price of a target category of a target merchant, accessing the price list of the target merchant; querying the type corresponding to the target category from the price list of the target merchant; if it is a special type, obtaining the special price of the target category; if it is a standard type, querying the standard price corresponding to the target category from the price list of the platform server. The standard price may be adjusted at any time, and the special price of the merchant category cannot be used as the standard. The standard price currently in effect for the category is the most authoritative.

[0076] Continue to see Figure 3 , Figure 3 FIG. 1 is a schematic diagram of an application scenario of the method for storing data according to this embodiment. Figure 3 In the application scenario, the contract information signed between merchant b and the platform indicates that category A uses standard prices and category B uses special prices. Then, you only need to record the price of category B in merchant b's price list and mark it as a special type. Do not record the price of category A, but only mark it as a standard type. When the platform changes the price of category A, you do not need to modify merchant b's price list, but only modify the price list of the platform server. Other merchants using category A can also directly obtain the latest price information from the price list of the platform server.

[0077] Further references Figure 4 , which shows a process 400 of another embodiment of a method for storing data. The process 400 of the method for storing data includes the following steps:

[0078] Step 401 , in response to receiving a request to query the price of a target category of a target merchant, access a price list of the target merchant.

[0079] In this embodiment, after the buyer purchases an item from a target merchant on the platform, he or she can query the price (commission rate or fixed commission) that should be paid to the platform according to the target category to which the item belongs. Directly access the price list of the target merchant. The price list of the target merchant can be stored in a cache for quick search. The price list of the target merchant can also be backed up in a database.

[0080] Step 402, query the effective time period corresponding to the target category from the price list of the target merchant.

[0081] In this embodiment, the effective time period of the price is agreed upon when the contract is signed, including the effective start time and effective end time. If it expires, a new contract is usually signed and the price may be adjusted. Even after the price is adjusted, only a new record is added, and the original record is not overwritten.

[0082] Step 403: If the current time is not within the effective time period, access the price list of the platform server.

[0083] In this embodiment, if the prices in the merchant's price list are all expired, the prices in the price list of the platform server can be used. The merchant's price list may not be maintained in time and may expire. The price list of the platform server is maintained uniformly to prevent expiration.

[0084] Step 404: If the target category in the price table of the platform server corresponds to multiple effective time periods, the standard price of the target category with the most recent creation time is obtained.

[0085] In this embodiment, for example, the category commission rate on 2023.07.10 is checked, and two versions are found: 5% and 4.5%. The most recent rate is taken according to the creation time: 4.5%.

[0086] The method provided by the above-mentioned embodiment of the present disclosure can use the price list of the platform server when querying the price lists of different merchants, thereby preventing the situation where the commission cannot be deducted and the transaction cannot be completed.

[0087] In some optional implementations of this embodiment, the method also includes: in response to receiving a request to query the price of a target category of a target merchant, accessing a price list of the target merchant; querying the effective time period and type corresponding to the target category from the price list of the target merchant; if there are multiple effective time periods corresponding to special types, obtaining the special price with the most recent creation time of the target category.

[0088] In some optional implementations of this embodiment, the method further includes: in response to receiving a request to query the price of a target category of a target merchant, accessing the price list of the target merchant; if the access is not possible, accessing the price list of the platform server; if the target category in the price list of the platform server corresponds to multiple effective time periods, obtaining the standard price of the target category most recently created.
