Determine the expiration mark of the medical device based on the usage cycle and usage characteristics. Add the expiration mark of the medical device to the sales equipment to remind consumers to see the expiration mark before purchasing.
[0081] This solution compares promotional benefits with disposal costs to make the most economically optimal decision and avoid losses caused by expired medical devices. It ensures that expired medical devices are properly handled, avoiding health risks to consumers while reducing inventory backlogs. It ensures timely order fulfillment, improves consumer satisfaction, and optimizes inventory distribution. It identifies the usage characteristics of medical devices, providing a basis for developing sales strategies and inventory management. By using near-expiry marking, consumers are reminded of the expiration date of medical devices, promoting the sale of near-expiry medical devices and reducing waste. This improves consumers' right to know and strengthens consumer trust.
[0082] In some embodiments, the shippable items are determined based on the device identifier; if destroyed, the shippable items are determined based on the transfer instructions; if the inventory processing plan is promotion, the shippable items are marked and the marked shippable items are determined as the shippable items.
[0083] Shippable items can be medical devices in stock that meet the shipping order and are within their validity period.
[0084] Specifically, based on the device identifier, extract device information such as the expiration date and inventory status of the ordered device type. Confirm that the medical devices that meet the order requirements and are within the validity period are shipped items. If destruction is selected, a transfer instruction is generated based on the destruction requirements. According to the transfer instruction, the transfer operation is executed. The medical devices after the transfer operation are determined as shipped items. If the inventory processing plan is promotion, the medical devices selected for promotion are marked and the marked medical devices are set as shippable items. According to the inventory processing plan, the shippable items are promoted. Based on the sales performance of the promotion and the orders to be shipped, the shipment items are determined.
[0085] This solution accurately identifies shippable items through device identifiers, ensuring accuracy and proper compliance, reducing the risk of errors and non-compliance. It also ensures that expired or substandard medical devices are properly labeled and destroyed, preventing them from entering the market and safeguarding consumer safety. Promotional markings remind consumers of the expiration dates of medical devices, promoting sales of near-expiry devices and protecting consumers' right to know about reserved devices, reducing the risk of expiration and inventory backlogs.
[0086] In some embodiments, the inventory corresponding to the order device type is marked as unsalable, and an inventory freeze instruction is triggered; based on the inventory freeze instruction, the inventory outbound status is verified; and based on the inventory outbound status, after determining that it has been frozen, the device information is analyzed to determine the usage attributes; based on the usage attributes, a destruction plan is determined and the device is destroyed according to the destruction plan.
[0087] An inventory freeze order may be an order issued to medical devices that cannot be sold in inventory, requiring the cessation of all outbound and sales activities of medical devices that cannot be sold in inventory.
[0088] The inventory outbound status can be a status indicating whether the inventory item can be outbound, unavailable, or partially outbound.
[0089] The use attributes may include whether the medical device is recyclable, whether it is reusable, and other uses and attributes.
[0090] A destruction plan can be a detailed plan for destroying medical devices that are expired or do not meet usage standards.
[0091] Specifically, in the inventory management device, the inventory corresponding to the order device type is marked as unsalable. Based on the unsalable mark, the inventory freeze instruction is triggered. The inventory is changed from a salable state to a frozen state. The inventory management device is used to verify the inventory outbound status. Based on the verification results, it is confirmed that the inventory outbound status of the medical device in the inventory management device has been frozen. Based on the device information, the use attributes of the medical device, such as whether it is recyclable or reusable, are determined. Based on the use attributes and characteristics of the device, a destruction plan such as physical destruction, chemical decomposition, and recycling is formulated that complies with environmental regulations and industry standards. According to the destruction plan, destruction is carried out in accordance with regulatory requirements.
[0092] Through this solution, unsalable marking is performed, the UDI code is bound to the inventory, and the entire process is monitored to prevent expired or substandard medical devices from being mistakenly sold, protect consumer safety, and reduce potential risks and liabilities caused by expired medical devices. Trigger the inventory freeze instruction to ensure that medical devices marked as unsalable no longer enter the sales process, preventing expired medical devices from entering the market. Through verification, ensure that the inventory management equipment is consistent with the actual inventory status, and improve the accuracy and reliability of the inventory. Confirm that the inventory freeze instruction has been correctly executed to provide a basis for destruction. Determine the use attributes of medical devices to provide the necessary basis for formulating a destruction plan. Develop a destruction plan that complies with environmental protection laws and industry standards to ensure the safety and reasonable standardization of the destruction process. Ensure that expired or substandard medical devices are properly destroyed to avoid potential impacts on the environment and public health.
[0093] In some embodiments, regional inventory distribution data and transportation cost parameters are obtained; based on the device identifier, the UDI code of the device to be shipped corresponding to the order to be shipped is determined; based on the order to be shipped, the UDI code and the regional inventory distribution data, a set of candidate transfer paths is generated; based on the order to be shipped, the order timeliness requirements are determined; based on the weighted sum of the destruction revenue and the transportation cost parameters and the order timeliness requirements, the optimal transfer path is selected from the candidate transfer path set, and a transfer instruction is generated.
[0094] Regional inventory distribution data may be data on inventory levels, such as inventory quantity, inventory status, and overstocking, understocking, etc., of medical devices in warehouses at different geographical locations.
[0095] Transportation cost parameters may include factors such as transportation distance, transportation method, transportation time, transportation weight, and transportation volume that affect the transportation cost of medical devices.
[0096] Devices to be shipped may be medical devices for which orders have been received and need to be taken out of the warehouse and sent to consumers.
[0097] The candidate transfer path set may be multiple transfer paths generated based on the orders to be shipped, UDI codes, and regional inventory distribution data.
[0098] Order timeliness requirements can be consumers' requirements for order delivery time.
[0099] Destruction benefits can be the losses avoided by destroying medical devices that are expired or do not meet the standards for use.
[0100] The weighted sum can be achieved by assigning different weights to the destruction revenue and transportation cost parameters according to their importance during the decision-making process, and calculating the weighted total cost.
[0101] The optimal transfer route can be the one with the lowest cost and meeting the order timeliness requirements selected after comprehensively considering factors such as transportation cost parameters and time among all candidate transfer routes.
[0102] Specifically, regional inventory distribution data and transportation cost parameters such as inventory quantity, geographical location, transportation distance, transportation time, and transportation cost are collected from inventory management equipment and logistics equipment. Medical devices in the inventory are matched according to the device identifiers provided in the orders to be shipped, and the UDI codes of the orders to be shipped and the devices to be shipped are determined to be consistent. Based on the orders to be shipped, UDI codes, and regional inventory distribution data, a set of candidate transfer routes is generated using a logistics optimization algorithm. Based on customer needs and business goals, order timeliness requirements such as the estimated delivery time and service level of the orders to be shipped are determined. Based on the weighted sum of the destruction revenue and transportation cost parameters, the weighted sum of each candidate transfer route is calculated. In combination with the order timeliness requirements and the weighted sum, an optimization algorithm is used to select the optimal path from the set of candidate transfer paths. Based on the selected optimal transfer path, a transfer instruction is generated.
[0103] This solution collects real-time, accurate inventory distribution data and transportation cost parameters, helping to optimize inventory management and logistics decisions. UDI codes ensure the accuracy and traceability of orders to be shipped, improving the precision of inventory management. By analyzing inventory distribution data and transportation cost parameters, a set of candidate transfer routes is generated, providing a data foundation for selecting the optimal transfer route. Consumers' timeliness requirements for shipping orders are clarified, providing time limits for logistics decisions. By combining the weighted sum of destruction revenue and transportation cost parameters, the transfer route with the lowest cost and meeting timeliness requirements is selected, optimizing logistics costs and time efficiency. Specific transfer instructions are generated to ensure the smooth progress of the transfer process, improving inventory turnover and consumer satisfaction.
[0104] In some embodiments, the warehouse location of the medical devices to be destroyed is obtained; the destruction path is determined based on the warehouse location; the transfer path is determined based on the transfer instruction; the overlap between the transfer path and the destruction path is calculated: the overlap is compared with a preset joint transportation threshold, and if the overlap is higher than the preset joint transportation threshold, a joint transportation task is generated.
[0105] Medical devices to be destroyed may be medical devices that are expired, damaged, or no longer meet the usage standards and need to be destroyed.
[0106] The warehouse location may be the specific warehouse information where the medical devices to be destroyed are stored.
[0107] The destruction route can be the transportation route from the warehouse location to the destruction processing site.
[0108] A transfer route can be a transportation route from a source warehouse to a destination warehouse.
[0109] The overlap degree can be the degree of coincidence between the transfer path and the destruction path.
[0110] The preset combined transport threshold may be a pre-set standard for determining whether the overlap between the transfer route and the destruction route is sufficiently high, and may be pre-stored in the server and called upon when used.
[0111] A combined transport task may be a task that combines the transport of transfer and destruction of medical devices.
[0112] Specifically, inventory management equipment is used to query the warehouse location of medical devices to be destroyed. Logistics planning tools are used to plan a destruction route based on the warehouse location of the medical devices to be destroyed. Transfer instructions are parsed, and logistics planning tools are used to determine the transfer route for the medical devices based on the source warehouse location and the destination. Geographic Information Systems (GIS) is used to calculate the degree of overlap between the transfer route and the destruction route. Based on factors such as cost-benefit analysis and transportation efficiency, a preset joint transportation threshold is set. The calculated overlap is compared with the preset joint transportation threshold. If the overlap exceeds the preset joint transportation threshold, a joint transportation task is generated.
[0113] This solution allows you to obtain the warehouse location, helping you accurately locate medical devices to be destroyed and providing a foundation for destruction. It also helps you plan the optimal destruction route, reducing transportation costs and time, and improving destruction efficiency. It also helps you plan the optimal transfer route, ensuring that medical devices arrive at their destination promptly to meet consumer demand. By calculating the degree of overlap, you can assess whether combined transport tasks can reduce transportation costs and environmental impact. By comparing the degree of overlap with the preset combined transport threshold, you can determine whether the economic and environmental benefits of the combined transport task are met, providing a basis for deciding whether to execute the combined transport task. If the degree of overlap exceeds the preset combined transport threshold, a combined transport task is generated, reducing the number of transports, lowering costs, and reducing carbon emissions.
[0114] In some embodiments, a priority identifier of an order to be shipped is obtained; the priority identifier is analyzed to determine whether there is an urgent order; if there is an urgent order, an urgent transfer path for the urgent order is determined based on the destruction revenue and the order timeliness requirements; after the urgent transfer path is generated, the validity status of the transferred inventory is frozen in real time; if there is no urgent order, the optimal transfer path is selected from the candidate transfer path set based on the weighted sum of the destruction revenue and the transportation cost parameters and the order timeliness requirements.
[0115] The priority identifier may be a mark used to distinguish the processing priorities of orders to be shipped.
[0116] A rush order may be an order that requires immediate or priority processing.
[0117] An emergency routing can be the fastest and most direct shipping route planned to fulfill urgent orders.
[0118] Transferred inventory can be medical device inventory that is transferred from the warehouse to meet orders to be shipped.
[0119] The validity period status may include the production date, expiration date, and other validity period information of the medical device.
[0120] Specifically, the priority identifier of the order to be shipped is obtained from the order management device. Based on the priority identifier, it is determined whether there is an urgent order. If there is an urgent order, the destruction revenue of the medical device is analyzed and the order timeliness requirements of the urgent order are evaluated. Based on the destruction revenue and order timeliness requirements, the emergency transfer path is determined using the logistics optimization algorithm. Based on the determined emergency transfer path, the expiration status of the medical device in the transferred inventory is set to frozen. If there is no urgent order, the weighted sum of the candidate transfer path set is calculated based on the destruction revenue and transportation cost parameters. The order timeliness requirements of the candidate transfer path set for the order to be shipped are evaluated. Based on the weighted sum and order timeliness requirements, the optimal transfer path is selected from the candidate transfer path set.
[0121] Through this solution, by obtaining the priority identification of orders to be shipped, urgent orders can be quickly identified and processed to ensure that urgent orders are handled in a timely manner. Analyzing the priority identification helps to distinguish between regular orders and urgent orders, providing a basis for selecting the optimal transfer route. If there is an urgent order, the determined emergency transfer route helps to ensure that medical devices are delivered quickly to meet the urgent needs of consumers. Real-time freezing of the expiration status of the transferred inventory helps to prevent expired medical devices from being sold, ensuring the safety and reasonable standardization of medical devices. Based on the weighted sum of the destruction revenue and transportation cost parameters and the order timeliness requirements, selecting the optimal transfer route helps to optimize inventory management and logistics transportation, improve efficiency and reduce costs.
