Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the field of e-commerce and Internet information technology, and specifically to an electronic auction sales system that integrates traditional auction models, bidding technologies, and modern Internet information technology, for realizing online auction sales of goods or services and improving transaction efficiency and flexibility. Background Art

[0002] Currently, the traditional auction sales model has numerous limitations. Offline auctions are constrained by time and space, with a limited number of participants, and the auction process lacks real-time and convenience. Existing online auction platforms, on the other hand, offer relatively limited functionality and are unable to meet diverse business needs. For example, some platforms only support public auctions and lack an invitation-based bidding function, making it difficult to meet the needs of private auctions in specific scenarios. In terms of auction parameter settings, there is a lack of effective control over parameters such as the price increase and the minimum total price, leading to uncontrollable price fluctuations. Furthermore, existing platforms lack detailed management of the auction process, making it impossible to flexibly configure auction information display content for different sales scenarios. They also lack integrated functions such as bid qualification review and auction trend analysis. Furthermore, the limited method of providing information reminders during the auction process fails to meet the diverse needs of users, easily leading to missed auction milestones, affecting the bidding experience and transaction success rate. Therefore, a more comprehensive and adaptable electronic auction sales system is needed. Summary of the Invention

[0003] The purpose of the present invention is to provide an electronic auction sales system to solve the problems of the existing auction sales model such as single function, lack of flexible configuration and refined management, and improve the efficiency of auction sales and user experience.

[0004] This electronic auction sales system includes two major entities: the management party and the participating bidders. The management party can log in through the web page to publish the auction and maintain basic information. The participating bidders support two login methods to participate in the auction: the web page and the mini program. In terms of the auction publishing function, the system supports diverse settings: you can choose between open auction or invited auction type; you have the ability to independently invite customers to participate in the auction; you can set whether to declare, and define the declaration start and end time and quotation deadline; you can control the customer's price increase amount, limit the minimum total price of the quotation, limit the minimum unit price discount of the quotation, and you can also upload attached materials; the auction material maintenance method is flexible, supporting both independent selection of materials and batch import of materials, and supporting the deactivation of material files to adapt to project or service auctions; in addition, the system provides custom items for the auction table to meet the personalized needs of different auction scenarios. During the qualification review phase, clients participating in the auction will receive multi-channel message reminders in advance and register online through the mini program or web page. The registration process supports uploading information such as document attachments. The system will automatically conduct an auction qualification review after the client registers. The management can review the client's application materials and support application return operations. Clients can view the reasons for the return and apply again. After the review is completed, the system will automatically send the results to the client through one or more methods such as the official account, SMS, and email. During the auction phase, the auction administrator has several functions: on-site countdown reminders to improve decision-making efficiency; flexible configuration of customer-visible information, including fields such as the lowest total price, highest unit price, own ranking, and material unit price ranking, to achieve refined disclosure of information; the ability to query projects currently being auctioned and display real-time updated auction rankings; the option to hide customer quoted prices; and the ability to view customer bidding trend charts by time or number of times. Bidders will receive multi-channel message reminders before the auction begins. After the auction begins, they can quote on the mini program or web page. When quoting, the system automatically determines whether the quoted price must meet the minimum total price or minimum unit price configured by the administrator. Only if this is met can the quotation be successful. Attachments can be uploaded during the quotation process. According to the administrator's configuration, information such as own ranking and material unit price ranking can be viewed. During the auction, the price can be modified according to the number of times configured by the administrator. The auction page displays a real-time countdown. During the result viewing stage, after the auction is completed, the system sends a bidding reminder to the bidding personnel of the management party and supports another round of bidding for the auction project. To determine the transaction process, the management supports two bidding methods: unified allocation and detailed allocation. The system automatically analyzes the customer's price increase amount, price increase ratio and other information during the auction process, and supports exporting the auction information as a table. At the same time, the customer's quotation modification record can be viewed. After the bid is determined, the system sends a bid determination or non-bid notification to the participating bidders. In addition, the system also has other functions, supporting the query and management of all information within the auction cycle and statistical auction files; providing basic file maintenance functions such as material files, material categories, customer files, customer categories, as well as custom items and basic configuration functions to meet personalized business needs.
