[0035] Figure 2 The flowchart of the method for transporting items according to an embodiment of the present disclosure is schematically shown.

[0036] like Figure 2 As shown, the method includes operations S201-S202.

[0037] In operation S201, in response to an item transport instruction for an item to be transported, a pickup information entry page is generated, wherein the pickup information that needs to be entered in the pickup information entry page includes: pickup address information and pickup code information.

[0038] According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, the items to be transported may have destination address information, and the destination address represented by the destination address information may be an address to which the items to be transported need to be correctly delivered. The items to be transported may include items that are delivered to a collection point address related to the destination address but not delivered to the destination address, and may not be limited thereto.

[0039] According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, when an item to be transported is delivered to a collection point address, for example, a message indicating that the item has been collected can be generated at the user terminal, and the message can include the collection point address information and the pickup code information. An item pickup service can be designed for such situations. When a user needs to pick up an item, the item pickup service can be entered through the user terminal, and an item transportation instruction for the item to be transported can be generated by selecting a pickup operation for the corresponding item to be transported. In response to the item transportation instruction, the item pickup service can jump to a pickup information entry page for filling in pickup address information, pickup code information and other pickup information, and fill in the relevant pickup information. Among them, the pickup address information can be determined based on the collection point address information in the message, and the pickup code information can be determined based on the pickup code information in the message.

[0040] According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, the pickup information entry page may further include delivery address information for recording the target address to which the item to be transported needs to be delivered. The delivery address information may be determined based on the destination address information of the item to be transported. In some embodiments, when there is no destination address information for the item to be transported, the delivery address information may also be determined based on a default address set by the user, and is not limited thereto.

[0041] In operation S202, when the pickup information has been entered on the pickup information entry page, the pickup information is sent to the target terminal in response to the pickup instruction, so that the transporter using the target terminal can extract the items to be transported for delivery from the pickup address represented by the pickup address information based on the pickup code information.

[0042] According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, the target terminal may represent a terminal used by a transporter. When it is determined that the transporter needs to pick up the items to be transported, and it is determined that the pickup information has been entered correctly on the pickup information entry page, a pickup instruction may be generated by selecting the operation representing the pickup determination on the pickup information entry page, and obtaining user authorization. Then, in response to the pickup instruction, the pickup information on the pickup information entry page may be sent to the target terminal. The transporter may pick up the items to be transported and deliver them according to the pickup information.

[0043] It should be noted that the above method can also be applied to scenarios where items need to be mailed, and the items to be transported can also include items that need to be mailed, or items that need to be transported from any address to any other address, etc., and is not limited to this.

[0044] Through the above-mentioned embodiments of the present disclosure, a service for picking up items can be provided, which is particularly suitable for situations where the user's items are delivered to a post station and the user is unable to pick them up by themselves. Based on this method, an intelligent pickup service can be implemented, which can effectively solve the problem of inconvenience and difficulty in picking up items for some users.

[0045] In conjunction with specific embodiments, Figure 2 The method shown is further explained.

[0046] According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, the process of entering pickup information on a pickup information entry page may include: generating a candidate address list on the pickup information entry page according to preset location information. In response to selecting a target candidate address in the candidate address list, determining the target candidate address as the pickup address information entered on the pickup information entry page.

[0047] According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, the preset location information may be location information customized by the user, or may be the user's current location information obtained after authorization by the user, which is not limited here. The candidate address list may represent the addresses of collection points whose distance from the preset location represented by the preset location information does not exceed a preset threshold, or may represent the addresses of all collection points in a certain area arranged in order of distance from the preset location from small to large, and may not be limited thereto. The collection point may include at least one of the following: a post station, a self-collection cabinet, etc., and may not be limited thereto.

[0048] For example, after determining the preset location information, the LBS (Location Based Services) positioning of the preset location can be used to identify the post stations and self-pickup cabinets near the preset location, and assist users in selecting the self-pickup cabinets and self-pickup points where they need to pick up items. The source channels of the post stations and self-pickup cabinets can include at least one of the following: The item pickup service can connect to a third-party company with the authorization of the third-party company, and obtain information on all self-pickup cabinets and post stations within a range of 3km according to the preset location. For business system maintenance, third-party companies that are not connected can maintain the basic information of self-pickup cabinets and post stations through manual maintenance.

[0049] According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, corresponding to the candidate address list interface, the pick-up cabinets and post stations can be displayed by category so that users can select the target candidate address more quickly and accurately according to the category.

[0050] Figure 3 A schematic diagram of a candidate address list interface according to an embodiment of the present disclosure is schematically shown.

[0051] like Figure 3 As shown, the candidate address list interface 300 may include an "all" sub-interface 310, a "post station" sub-interface 320, a "self-pickup cabinet" sub-interface 330, etc. The "post station" sub-interface 320 may only display the address information of the post station determined according to the preset location. The "self-pickup cabinet" sub-interface 330 may only display the address information of the self-pickup cabinet determined according to the preset location. The "all" sub-interface 310 may display the address information of all post stations and self-pickup cabinets determined according to the preset location.

[0052] According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, the process of entering the pickup information on the pickup information entry page may further include: in response to clicking the image recognition unit of the pickup information entry page, jumping to the image recognition page. Based on the image recognition page, the image containing the pickup information of the item to be transported is recognized to obtain the pickup information. The pickup information is entered into the pickup information entry page.

[0053] For example, by clicking the image recognition unit on the pickup information entry page and jumping to the image recognition page, you can use image recognition to identify the image containing the pickup information of the items to be transported, extract the pickup code information and pickup address information, and automatically fill them in on the pickup information entry page.

[0054] It should be noted that you can also manually enter the pickup address information and pickup code information in the pickup information entry page by entering the information at the end of the work, and there is no limitation here.

[0055] According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, the process of entering the pickup information on the pickup information entry page may further include: in response to the transport order number of the item to be transported having been entered on the pickup information entry page, obtaining the pickup information related to the transport order number from a database according to the transport order number, wherein the database stores a mapping relationship between the transport order number and the pickup information, and entering the pickup information into the pickup information entry page.

[0056] According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, the pickup information entry page may further include transport order number information for recording the transport order number of the item to be transported. The transport order number information may be determined based on the logistics order number of the item to be transported before it is delivered to the self-pickup cabinet or post station. The logistics order number of each item and its corresponding pickup information may be pre-stored in a database. After obtaining the transport order number of the item to be transported based on the pickup information entry page, the pickup information of the item to be transported may be retrieved from the database based on the transport order number, and the pickup information may be automatically filled in the pickup information entry page, or the pickup information may be first displayed to the user in the form of a pop-up window, and filled in the pickup information entry page after the user confirms the information content.

[0057] Corresponding to the above embodiment, for example, by connecting to the above database interface, it is possible to obtain the pickup information according to the transport order number.

[0058] According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, users can also set preferences in the item pickup service. For example, users can set pickup preference information such as door-to-door delivery on weekdays, door-to-door delivery on weekdays, etc. The pickup preference information can be recorded in the form of a note in the pickup information entry page, and can be sent to the target terminal along with the interval information, so that the transporter can deliver the item according to the preference information.

[0059] Through the above-mentioned embodiments of the present disclosure, the filling of pickup information can be realized more accurately, thereby improving the intelligent capability of the service.

[0061] According to the embodiments of the present disclosure, the courier identification needs to be obtained on the premise of obtaining the courier's authorization. Each pickup address can be assigned to at least one courier, and the pickup address information and the courier identification information of the courier assigned to it can be pre-stored in association. For example, it can be stored in a one-to-one or one-to-many mapping relationship, or the pickup address information can be used as the key and the courier identification information assigned to the pickup address information can be used as the value to construct key-value information for storage.

[0062] According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, after obtaining the pickup address information of the items to be transported, the item pickup service can issue the pickup task of the items to be transported based on the route scheduling. For example, the pickup task can be issued to the transporter who is responsible for the delivery task of the pickup address. Specifically, the target transporter identification can be first obtained from the pre-stored pickup address information-transporter identification information according to the pickup address information. Then, the pickup task is sent to the target terminal related to the target transporter identification so that the target transporter can perform the pickup task.

[0063] It should be noted that the target courier can choose to accept the pickup task or not. If the target courier chooses not to accept the pickup task, the target courier can forward the pickup task to other courier. Other courier forwarded to can also accept the pickup task or refuse to accept the pickup task. If other courier refuses to accept the pickup task, the target courier can be reassigned until the assignment is successful or fails due to timeout, and the assignment result can be fed back to the customer.

[0064] For example, when the target courier receives the pickup task, the target courier can go to the corresponding pickup address, provide the pickup code, and complete the pickup. After the pickup is completed, a delivery task can be generated, and the delivery task can be delivered by the target courier in sequence together with the delivery tasks of the target courier's normal orders.

[0065] Through the above-mentioned embodiments of the present disclosure, transportation resources can be saved, transportation efficiency can be improved, and resource utilization can be effectively improved.
