Abstract

Along with the mature development of the mobile internet technology and the flourishing development of the consumer industry, digital payment is gradually popularized in daily life, but cash consumption and cash payment still exist in some regions and some life scenes, so that some related retail stores still have the demand of large amount of change exchange, and the cost is low. If a retail store finds nearby merchants or reserves a bank to exchange changes, the changes may be insufficient in exchange or cannot meet the requirements, and the exchange time is not timely, so that the exchange efficiency is not high, the labor cost is wasted, and the operation of the store is influenced. Therefore, development of a management method for reserving change exchange in a retail store is particularly important, the change exchange demand of the retail store is met within the specified time, the working efficiency is improved, and the labor cost is saved. The invention provides a retail store change exchange management method. According to the method, an actual business application scene is combined, a change demander reserves related change exchange demand information according to the actual demand of a store, and a change delivery side effectively arranges a change delivery plan after receiving the change demand information, so that complete closed loop of change exchange is realized, and a change exchange process is effectively managed.

Description

A management method for exchanging change at retail stores. Technical Field

[0001] This system provides a method for managing change exchange at retail stores, specifically involving a method based on web development technology to achieve a complete closed loop for change exchange and provide management of change exchange records. Background Technology

[0002] With the maturation of mobile internet technology and the booming development of the consumer industry, digital payments have gradually become widespread in daily life. However, cash consumption and payments still exist in some areas and in some life scenarios. Therefore, some related retail stores still have a large demand for small change. If retail stores try to exchange small change with suppliers, nearby merchants, or make appointments with banks, they may encounter situations where there is insufficient small change to meet demand, or the exchange time cannot be timely, resulting in low exchange efficiency and wasted labor costs, thus affecting store operations. Therefore, developing a management method for retail stores to schedule small change exchanges is particularly important. This method can meet the small change exchange needs of stores within a specified time, improve work efficiency, and save labor costs. Summary of the Invention

[0003] This method provides a management approach for retail stores to exchange change. It integrates practical business scenarios, allowing customers to reserve change requests based on the store's actual needs, and enabling change providers to effectively arrange and adjust their change delivery plans upon receiving these requests. Attached Figure Description

[0004] Figure 1 is a flowchart of a management method for exchanging change in a retail store. Detailed Implementation

[0005] This method provides a management approach for exchanging change in retail stores. The following examples will illustrate this method in detail. The described examples are only a part of the invention, not all examples. The examples of the invention will be specifically described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0006] As shown in Figure 1, there are three main types of users who log in to the system to perform operations related to cashing out small orders.

[0007] The first category is management users. After verification of management permissions in the backend, users can view and export reports of change exchange reservation orders and pending change exchange applications. They can also analyze the change demand of each region or store through exported reports and formulate change delivery plans in a timely manner. The system can also arrange for personnel to deliver change to stores.

[0008] The second category consists of users who need change. After passing backend permission verification, once authorized to initiate a change exchange reservation request, they can fill in the relevant information according to their change exchange needs and submit it. After submission, a change exchange reservation form is generated, and the change will be delivered before the specified time. Users can cancel or re-edit the form before the specified delivery time to meet the latest change exchange needs; after the change is confirmed to have been delivered, users can also confirm delivery within the system.

[0009] The third category is users who handle change delivery. After passing the backend permission verification, they can view the delivery plans assigned to them, as well as the corresponding change redemption appointment orders and pending change redemption requests. When the change is delivered to the requester, the user needs to upload the change redemption result voucher and confirm the delivery in the system. This completes the relevant change redemption delivery process.
