Therefore, the communication unit can include a wired communication module that connects to the Internet or the like via a LAN (Local Area Network), a mobile communication module that connects to a mobile communication network via a mobile communication base station and transmits and receives data, a short-range communication module that uses a WLAN (Wireless Local Area Network) series communication method such as Wi-Fi or a WPAN (Wireless Personal Area Network) series communication method such as Bluetooth or Zigbee, a satellite communication module that uses a GNSS (Global Navigation Satellite System) such as GPS (Global Positioning System), or a combination thereof.

[0046] The storage 230 may store various types of information. The storage 230 may store data temporarily or semi-permanently. For example, the storage 230 of the server device 100 may store an operating system (OS) for running the server device 100, data for hosting a website, and data related to a program or application (e.g., a web application) for generating Braille. Furthermore, as described above, the storage 230 may store modules in the form of computer code.

[0047] Examples of the storage 230 include a hard disk drive (HDD), a solid state drive (SSD), a flash memory, a read-only memory (ROM), a random access memory (RAM), etc. The storage 230 may be provided as a built-in type or a removable type.

[0048] The processor 240 controls the overall operation of the server device 100 and the user device 200. Therefore, the processor 240 may perform calculations and processing of various information and control the operation of the components of the server device 100. For example, the processor 240 may execute a program or application for providing information. The processor 240 may be implemented as a computer or similar device using hardware, software, or a combination thereof. The hardware processor 240 may be implemented in the form of an electronic circuit that processes electrical signals to perform a control function, and the software processor 240 may be implemented in the form of a program that drives the hardware processor 240. Unless otherwise specified in the following description, the operations of the server device 100 and the user device 200 may be interpreted as being performed under the control of the processor 240. That is, when a module implemented in the information providing system described above is executed, the module may be interpreted as the processor 240 controlling the server device 100 and the user device 200 to perform the following operations:

[0049] In summary, the various embodiments may be implemented by various means, such as hardware, firmware, software, or a combination thereof.

[0050] In the case of a hardware implementation, the methods of various embodiments may be implemented using one or more application specific integrated circuits (ASICs), digital signal processors (DSPs), digital signal processing devices (DSPDs), programmable logic devices (PLDs), field programmable gate arrays (FPGAs), processors, controllers, microcontrollers, microprocessors, etc.

[0051] In the case of a firmware or software implementation, the methods according to various embodiments may be implemented in the form of modules, procedures, or functions that perform the functions or operations described below. For example, software code may be stored in a memory and executed by a processor. The memory may be located inside or outside the processor and may transmit data to or receive data from the processor by various means known in the art.

[0052] Hereinafter, various embodiments will be described in more detail based on the above technical ideas. The above content may be applied to the various embodiments described below. For example, operations, functions, terms, etc. not defined in the various embodiments described below may be performed and explained based on the above content.

[0053] In the following description, various embodiments will be described assuming that the server device 100 performs the information providing operation, and according to various embodiments, the user device 200 that receives information from the server device 100 may output the information.

[0054] FIG. 3 is a diagram illustrating a method of operation of a server device 100 for providing information according to various embodiments.

[0055] 3, the server device 100 may provide guidance information regarding task requirements related to the performance of a delivery task, specifically, by checking information about a delivery person who will start a delivery task on the service 301, checking a plurality of task requirements set for the delivery person to perform the delivery task 303, and providing guidance information regarding the plurality of task requirements to the delivery person 305. In this case, the plurality of task requirements may include one or more essential task requirements required in advance for the delivery person to start the delivery task and one or more auxiliary task requirements additionally used for the delivery person to perform the delivery task.

[0056] 3, the operation of the server device 100 to provide guidance information regarding business requirements related to the performance of delivery business may be performed for a service provided by the server device 100 or a service related to the server device 100. Hereinafter, the service related to the server device 100 may correspond to a delivery intermediation service for intermediating delivery orders between various stores listed on the service and multiple users using the service. Also, the items subject to delivery orders may correspond to food items, and the term "food item" may be understood to have the same meaning as various other terms indicating food-related items, such as a dish, a food menu, or a meal. A store linked to the service related to the server device 100 may correspond to a store that sells and delivers food items, and may be understood to have the same meaning as various other terms indicating places where food items can be sold, such as a store, a shop, a restaurant, etc.

[0057] Through the delivery intermediary service provided by the server device 100, multiple users can input order requests to order items through a store within the service, and the store can confirm the order request input through the service and prepare the ordered items accordingly. Once the store has completed preparation of the ordered items, it can input a delivery request through the service, and once the delivery request is confirmed, a delivery person can visit the store to pick up the items and deliver them to the user's address information.

[0058] According to various embodiments, in operation 301, the server device 100 may verify information about a delivery person who will initiate a delivery job on the service.

[0059] For example, the information about the delivery person that the server device 100 confirms in accordance with operation 301 may include information about an identifier (ID) that identifies the delivery person.

[0060] For example, the information about the delivery person confirmed by the server device 100 according to operation 301 may be utilized by the server device 100 to confirm a plurality of job requirements set for the delivery person to perform a delivery job according to operation 303 described below. That is, when the server device 100 identifies a delivery person who has connected to the service to start a delivery job, the server device 100 may confirm a plurality of job requirements that the delivery person must satisfy to perform the delivery job.

[0061] According to various embodiments, in operation 303, the server device 100 may verify a plurality of job requirements set for the delivery person's performance of the delivery job.

[0062] For example, the multiple task requirements that the server device 100 confirms for the delivery person in accordance with operation 303 may include one or more mandatory task requirements that are required in advance for the delivery person to start delivery work, and in this case, the one or more mandatory task requirements may include a first task requirement related to the registration of the delivery person's license information. In other words, the one or more mandatory task requirements may include a task requirement that requests the delivery person who performs delivery work via a means of transportation to register license information corresponding to the means of transportation on the service.

[0063] For example, the multiple task requirements that the server device 100 confirms with the delivery person in accordance with operation 303 may include one or more mandatory task requirements that are required in advance for the delivery person to start a delivery job, and in this case, the one or more mandatory task requirements may include a second task requirement related to authenticating that the delivery person is wearing a hard hat. That is, the one or more mandatory task requirements may include a task requirement that requires a delivery person who performs a delivery job via a mobile means to authenticate on the service that he or she is wearing a hard hat in order to ensure the safety of the delivery person during the process of using the mobile means.

[0064] For example, the multiple job requirements that the server device 100 confirms for the delivery person in accordance with operation 303 may include one or more mandatory job requirements that are required in advance for the delivery person to start a delivery job, and in this case, the one or more mandatory job requirements may include a third job requirement related to the delivery person's completion of safety training. That is, a job requirement requiring the delivery person to authenticate completion of safety training on the service may be included in the one or more mandatory job requirements in order to ensure the safety of the delivery person performing the delivery job and to alert them to risks that may occur in the process of performing the delivery job.

[0065] For example, the multiple task requirements that the server device 100 confirms in accordance with operation 303 for the delivery person include one or more auxiliary task requirements that are additionally used for the delivery person to perform the delivery task, and in this case, the one or more auxiliary task requirements may include a fourth task requirement related to registering the address of the delivery person for insurance purposes. That is, since it may be necessary to register the address of a delivery person who performs delivery tasks for a service in order for the delivery person to subscribe to insurance such as industrial accident compensation insurance, a task requirement requesting the delivery person to enter the address registration for insurance purposes on the service may be included in the one or more auxiliary task requirements.

[0066] For example, the multiple task requirements that the server device 100 confirms with the delivery person in accordance with operation 303 may include one or more auxiliary task requirements additionally used to assist the delivery person in performing the delivery task. In this case, the one or more auxiliary task requirements may include a fifth task requirement related to whether or not a setting function for performing delivery tasks for multiple orders at once is activated. When a store's delivery request for an order acquired on the service is confirmed, if a delivery request for one order is confirmed, it is generally managed so that a single delivery task is performed for that single order. However, the delivery person may be able to activate a setting function for processing multiple orders through a single delivery task. In other words, unlike when a single delivery task is assigned to a single order, when a single delivery task is assigned to multiple orders and the delivery person completes all deliveries for each of the multiple orders, it may be confirmed that a single delivery task for the multiple orders has been completed. In this case, the one or more auxiliary task requirements may include task requirements that provide information on whether a setting function for performing delivery tasks for multiple orders at once can be activated, so that the delivery person can decide whether to perform one delivery task in response to one order or one delivery task that can process multiple orders at once based on their choice or convenience.

[0067] For example, the multiple task requirements that the server device 100 confirms in accordance with operation 303 for the delivery person may include one or more auxiliary task requirements additionally used to perform the delivery task of the delivery person, and in this case, the one or more auxiliary task requirements may include a sixth task requirement related to registering the delivery person's preferred delivery area. That is, to facilitate the delivery person performing delivery tasks for the service, delivery tasks may be managed to be performed in the delivery person's preferred area, and a task requirement requesting the delivery person to input information about the preferred delivery area may be included in the one or more auxiliary task requirements. If information about the preferred delivery area is acquired based on the delivery person's input, the server device 100 may assign delivery tasks to the delivery person centered on the delivery area. If the delivery person does not otherwise input the preferred delivery area, the server device 100 may assign delivery tasks to the delivery person centered on the delivery person's current real-time location information.

[0068] The server device 100 that sets the sixth task requirement can obtain information about the preferred delivery areas of multiple delivery personnel who perform delivery tasks on the service. In this case, however, a problem may arise in that the preferred delivery areas of multiple delivery personnel may be concentrated in a certain area, such as an area near the city center or an area with convenient transportation. In other words, if delivery tasks are allowed to be performed in the delivery areas preferred by delivery personnel, a problem may arise in that delivery personnel are concentrated in a specific area. To solve this problem, the server device 100 may perform the following operations.

[0069] First, the server device 100 may divide a certain delivery management area into a plurality of delivery area sections, which the server device 100 manages to enable delivery on the service. The server device 100 may check the number of orders received on the service for each delivery area section included in the plurality of delivery area sections, and then set a threshold value for the maximum number of delivery personnel that can be assigned to each delivery area section.

[0070] When a specific delivery person inputs information about their preferred delivery area on the service, the server device 100 can check which of the multiple delivery area sections contains the information about the delivery area preferred by the specific delivery person, and can check the threshold value for the maximum number of delivery people that can be assigned to the specific delivery area section to which the delivery area preferred by the specific delivery person belongs. In other words, if the delivery area preferred by the specific delivery person is included in a first delivery area section among the multiple delivery area sections, the server device 100 can check the first threshold value for the maximum number of delivery people that can be assigned to the first delivery area section.

[0071] In this case, if the number of delivery personnel active in the section of the first delivery area is less than the first threshold, the server device 100 may manage the specific delivery personnel who input information about their preferred delivery area so that they perform delivery work mainly in their preferred delivery area. On the other hand, if the number of delivery personnel active in the section of the first delivery area exceeds the first threshold, the server device 100 may check activity evaluation information about the specific delivery personnel and set whether or not to allow the specific delivery personnel to perform delivery work mainly in their preferred delivery area.

[0072] For example, if the activity evaluation information for the specific delivery person is equal to or greater than a certain evaluation standard, the server device 100 may manage the specific delivery person so that the specific delivery person performs delivery work mainly in a preferred delivery area within the first delivery area, even if the number of delivery people currently working in the first delivery area exceeds a first threshold. Conversely, if the activity evaluation information for the specific delivery person is less than a certain evaluation standard, the server device 100 may not assign the specific delivery person to the first delivery area when the number of delivery people currently working in the first delivery area exceeds the first threshold, but may recommend a second delivery area, among one or more delivery area sections adjacent to the first delivery area section, in which the number of delivery people currently working does not reach a threshold for the number of delivery people set as the maximum number that can be assigned to that delivery area section.

[0073] The delivery person's activity evaluation information, which serves as a basis for performing the above-described operation of the server device 100, may include information on the amount of activity according to the delivery person's activity history, information on a rating according to the delivery person's activity history, and / or evaluation information on the details of the delivery person's compliance with essential work requirements, etc. Here, the evaluation information on the details of the compliance with essential work requirements may refer to information that can evaluate how well the delivery person has complied with one or more essential work requirements that are required in advance for the delivery person to start delivery work among multiple work requirements. For example, the information may include evaluations such as: 1) for a mandatory work requirement related to license information registration, if a delivery person newly sets their means of transportation, whether it takes a long or short time to register the license information corresponding to the new means of transportation; 2) for a mandatory work requirement related to taking safety training, if the service prompts the delivery person to take new safety training, whether it takes a long or short time to take the new safety training; and 3) for a mandatory work requirement related to authentication of wearing a hard hat, whether an image taken and uploaded by a delivery person wearing a hard hat has ever deviated from the image requested on the service.

[0074] For example, each task requirement included in the plurality of task requirements that the server device 100 confirms with the delivery person in accordance with operation 303 may be set to have a certain priority. That is, the server device 100 may set a priority for each task requirement included in the plurality of task requirements, and such priority may be used to determine the order in which the task requirements are displayed to the delivery person on the service. That is, the server device 100 may set each piece of guidance information for each task requirement to be displayed in accordance with a display order set based on the priority of each task requirement. As an example, when the server device 100 provides guidance information regarding the plurality of task requirements to the delivery person in accordance with operation 305 described below, each piece of guidance information for each task requirement may be set to be displayed in accordance with the display order set according to the priority.

[0075] For example, among multiple task requirements, the priority of one or more essential task requirements that are required in advance for a delivery person to start a delivery task may be set higher than the priority of one or more auxiliary task requirements that are additionally used for the delivery person to perform the delivery task. That is, the essential task requirements are set to have a high priority because input by a delivery person is absolutely required and the delivery person cannot perform the delivery task unless the essential task requirements are met, whereas the auxiliary task requirements are set to have a low priority because input by a delivery person is optional and the delivery person can perform the delivery task even if the auxiliary task requirements are not met.

[0076] In addition, priorities may be determined among the one or more essential work requirements. For example, 1) the server device 100 may determine that the delivery person's license information registration is the most important factor for delivery work and determine that a first work requirement related to the delivery person's license information registration has the highest priority among the one or more essential work requirements. 2) the server device 100 may determine that the delivery person's safety training is the next most important factor for delivery work and determine that a third work requirement related to the delivery person's safety training has an intermediate priority among the one or more essential work requirements. In this case, the server device 100 may determine that 3) authenticating that the delivery person is wearing a hard hat is a delivery work factor with a low importance and determine that a second work requirement related to authenticating that the delivery person is wearing a hard hat has the lowest priority among the one or more essential work requirements.

[0077] Similarly, the priority of each auxiliary task requirement included in one or more auxiliary task requirements may be determined. For example, 4) the server device 100 may determine that registering the delivery person's address for insurance purposes is the most important auxiliary task for delivery work, and determine that a fourth task requirement related to registering the delivery person's address for insurance purposes has the highest priority among the one or more auxiliary task requirements. 5) In order to provide convenience to delivery people by allowing them to register their preferred delivery areas, the server device 100 may determine that registering the preferred delivery areas is the next most important auxiliary task for delivery work, and determine that a sixth task requirement related to registering the delivery person's preferred delivery areas has an intermediate priority among the one or more auxiliary task requirements. In this case, the server device 100 may determine that 6) providing a setting function that enables delivery people to perform delivery work for multiple orders at once is a low-importance auxiliary task for delivery work, and determine that a fifth auxiliary task requirement related to whether or not the setting function for performing delivery work for multiple orders at once is activated has the lowest priority among the one or more auxiliary task requirements.

[0078] In the above example, the priority of each task requirement included in the multiple task requirements is determined in the following order: (1) the first task requirement related to the delivery person's license information registration; (2) the third task requirement related to the delivery person's completion of safety training; (3) the second task requirement related to the delivery person's certification to wear a hard hat; (4) the fourth task requirement related to the delivery person's address registration for insurance purposes; (5) the sixth task requirement related to the delivery person's preferred delivery area registration; and (6) the fifth task requirement related to whether or not to activate the setting function for performing delivery tasks for multiple orders at once, and the system may be configured to display each guidance information related to each task requirement in the order of (1) to (6).

[0079] For example, among the multiple task requirements, the priority of one or more essential task requirements that are required in advance for a delivery person to start a delivery task and the priority of one or more auxiliary task requirements that are additionally used for the delivery person to perform a delivery task may be set to be different from each other. Therefore, the server device 100 may manage the display of guidance information regarding one or more essential task requirements so that the color in which guidance information regarding one or more auxiliary task requirements is displayed is set to be different from the color in which guidance information regarding one or more auxiliary task requirements is displayed. That is, when guidance information regarding multiple task requirements is provided, the color in which guidance information regarding each essential task requirement included in the one or more essential task requirements is displayed may be set to be different from the color in which guidance information regarding each auxiliary task requirement included in the one or more auxiliary task requirements is displayed, and the color in which guidance information regarding the essential task requirements is displayed may be set to be a darker or brighter color that can more easily attract the attention of the delivery person.

[0080] According to various embodiments, in operation 305, the server device 100 may provide guidance information to the delivery person regarding a plurality of job requirements.

[0081] For example, the guidance information regarding the plurality of task requirements provided by the server device 100 to the delivery person in operation 305 may include guidance information regarding each task requirement included in the plurality of task requirements, and each piece of guidance information regarding each task requirement may correspond to information in the form of a banner. That is, the server device 100 may set each task requirement included in the plurality of task requirements to be displayed on the service as information in the form of a certain banner.

[0082] For example, the guidance information regarding the plurality of job requirements that the server device 100 provides to the delivery person in accordance with operation 305 may be configured to be provided through an initial connection page through which the delivery person connects to the service to start delivery work. In other words, in order for the delivery person to start delivery work, one or more mandatory job requirements among the plurality of job requirements must be met. Therefore, the guidance information regarding the plurality of job requirements may be configured to be displayed on the initial connection page through which the delivery person connects to the service to start delivery work.

[0083] For example, the guidance information regarding the plurality of task requirements provided by the server device 100 to the delivery person in operation 305 may be configured to be provided through an additional page configured to display information about the plurality of task requirements on the service. The plurality of task requirements include both mandatory task requirements that the delivery person must input to start a delivery job and auxiliary task requirements that the delivery person can selectively input to help the delivery person perform the delivery job. Therefore, depending on the delivery person's input status, some task requirements may be determined to have been completed and fulfilled, while other task requirements may be determined to have been unfulfilled and not fulfilled, because there is no corresponding input. Therefore, to facilitate the delivery person's management of the plurality of task requirements, the server device 100 may provide the delivery person with an additional page containing information about the plurality of task requirements so that the information about the plurality of task requirements can be displayed on a separate page and provided to the delivery person.

[0084] For example, when the server device 100 provides the delivery person with guidance information regarding the plurality of job requirements in accordance with operation 305, the delivery person can respond by making input to fulfill each job requirement included in the plurality of job requirements. As an example, the delivery person can click on guidance information regarding a first job requirement related to license information registration and make input to register his / her license information on the service, and through the processing of this process, the delivery person can fulfill the first job requirement.

[0085] In order for a delivery person to start delivery work, the required work requirements among the multiple work requirements must first be met. Therefore, the server device 100 may acquire each input of the delivery person for each required work requirement included in one or more required work requirements of the multiple work requirements, and when all of the one or more required work requirements are met, set the work status of the delivery person to be activated so that the delivery person can start delivery work on the service.

[0086] Conversely, if a delivery person inputs an activation request to activate his / her job status even though at least one of the one or more essential job requirements is not satisfied, the server device 100 may provide, in response to the activation request input, rejection notification information informing the delivery person that the activation of the delivery status is rejected, and may also provide input processing request information requesting input for at least one essential job requirement that has not yet been satisfied. Thus, the server device 100 may manage the delivery person so that the delivery person can activate his / her job status only when all of the one or more essential job requirements are satisfied.

[0087] For example, if a delivery person inputs an activation request to activate his / her job status, but a second job requirement related to authentication that the delivery person wears a hard hat among one or more essential job requirements is not met, the server device 100 may provide refusal notification information informing the delivery person that the activation of the delivery status is rejected, and at this time, the server device 100 may be configured to generate a certain notification sound or vibration to notify the delivery person that the activation of the delivery status is rejected. Also, the server device 100 may provide input processing request information requesting input for the second job requirement that has not yet been met, along with the refusal notification information, and at this time, the server device 100 may be configured to provide a page for authentication that the delivery person wears a hard hat in response to the second job requirement. If the delivery person takes a picture of himself wearing the hard hat using a certain photography mode and uploads the image to the service in response to input processing request information requesting input for the second job requirement or to a page provided for authentication of wearing a hard hat in response to the second job requirement, the server device 100 may analyze the captured image to determine whether the delivery person can be authenticated as wearing the hard hat and thereby determine whether the second job requirement is met. If the second job requirement is met through the above procedure, the server device 100 may check whether there are any other mandatory job requirements that the delivery person must meet among the one or more mandatory job requirements. If there are any other mandatory job requirements that the delivery person must meet, the server device 100 may provide additional input processing request information requesting input for the mandatory job requirements, or may activate the job status of the delivery person if there are no other mandatory job requirements that the delivery person must meet.

[0088] It is apparent from FIG. 3 that, in the process of performing the operation method in which the server device 100 provides information on the job requirements related to delivery personnel, each piece of information can be combined in various forms.

[0089] 4 to 10 are diagrams illustrating examples of UI / UX for providing information according to various embodiments. For example, the examples of FIGS. 4 to 10 may be UI / UX (user interface / user experience) for a user device 200, and the embodiments described in the following drawings may be performed based on the operation of the server device 100 described above in FIGS. 4 to 10.

[0090] Specifically, each embodiment of the UI / UX for the user device 200 described in the following drawings may be implemented in a manner in which the user device 200 receives input information from a user and transmits it to the server device 100, and the server device 100 provides information corresponding to the input information to the user device 200 based on the operation described above in Fig. 3, and then the user device 200 outputs the information. However, each embodiment of the UI / UX described in the following drawings is not limited to this embodiment and may be implemented in various forms that can realize each embodiment of the UI / UX.

[0091] 4 and 5 are diagrams illustrating examples in which the user device 200 outputs guidance information related to business requirements according to various embodiments.

[0092] In FIGS. 4 and 5, the page output by the user device 200 may correspond to an initial connection page through which the delivery person connects to the service to start the delivery job.

[0093] Through the page of Fig. 4, the user device 200 may output guidance information related to one or more mandatory work requirements. Fig. 4 shows a state in which a delivery person has not registered his / her driver's license information and has not authenticated wearing a hard hat. The server device 100 may determine that the delivery person has not satisfied the mandatory work requirements related to license information registration and the mandatory work requirements related to authentication of wearing a hard hat. As a result, information 401 and 403 providing guidance on the mandatory work requirements related to license information registration and the mandatory work requirements related to authentication of wearing a hard hat may be output by the user device 200.

[0094] The delivery person can fulfill the mandatory work requirements by performing input corresponding to each guidance information displayed in 401 and 403, i.e., by performing input to register the delivery person's own license information and input to authenticate wearing a hard hat. Based on such delivery person's input, if the delivery person fulfills all the mandatory work requirements, the delivery person can be set to activate his / her work status in 405.

[0095] Through the page of Figure 5, the user device 200 may output guidance information regarding one or more mandatory job requirements and one or more auxiliary job requirements. Figure 5 shows a state in which a delivery person has not registered his / her license information, has not taken safety training, and has not activated a setting function for processing multiple orders in one delivery job. The server device 100 may determine that the delivery person does not meet the mandatory job requirements related to license information registration, the mandatory job requirements related to taking safety training, and the auxiliary job requirements related to whether or not the setting function for processing multiple orders in one delivery job is activated. As a result, information providing guidance regarding each mandatory job requirement and information providing guidance regarding each auxiliary job requirement may be output by the user device 200 as 501 and 503, respectively.

[0096] The delivery person can fulfill the job requirements by performing input corresponding to each guidance information displayed in 501 and 503, i.e., by performing input to register the delivery person's own license information, input to take safety training, and / or input to activate the setting function to process multiple orders in one delivery job. Based on such input by the delivery person, if the delivery person fulfills all the essential job requirements among the job requirements, the delivery person can be set to activate his / her job status in 505.

[0097] 6-7 are diagrams illustrating examples of obtaining delivery personnel input for mandatory business requirements related to license information registration from a user device 200 according to various embodiments.

[0098] As shown in Fig. 6, the user device 100 may output a selection window 601 that allows the delivery person to select a means of transportation, and the delivery person may input the selection of the means of transportation to be used to perform the delivery task. When the delivery person selects a means of transportation in Fig. 6, information requesting the delivery person to fulfill mandatory business requirements related to the registration of license information corresponding to the selected means of transportation may be output to the delivery person as shown in Fig. 7.

[0099] 7, a delivery person may enter and register their driver's license information 701. The entered driver's license information may be set to vary depending on the mode of transportation selected by the delivery person. Although not shown in FIG. 7, after the delivery person enters the driver's license information as shown in FIG. 7, the user device 200 may be set to enter a photographing mode in which a photograph of the driver's license is taken for driver's license authentication.

[0101] 8 may be a page that is output when a delivery person makes an input corresponding to guidance information regarding authentication of wearing a hard hat. As shown in FIG. 8, the user device 200 may be configured to output information 801 that guides the delivery person on how to photograph themselves wearing the hard hat before the delivery person enters a photographing mode for wearing the hard hat. When the delivery person selects a button 803 for photographing the hard hat, the user device 200 can enter a photographing mode for photographing themselves wearing the hard hat, and the delivery person can take a photograph of themselves wearing the hard hat and be authenticated on the service.

[0102] FIG. 9 is a diagram illustrating an example of obtaining delivery personnel input for subtask requirements from a user device 200 according to various embodiments.

[0103] 9 may correspond to a page for managing the delivery person's personal information, and the page may be processed so that the delivery person can input each auxiliary task requirement. In FIG. 9, the user device 100 may be configured to output information for inputting and registering auxiliary tasks related to the delivery person's preferred delivery area 901, or to output information for inputting and registering auxiliary tasks related to the delivery person's address registration for insurance purposes 903.

[0104] Although not shown in FIG. 9, information for inputting and registering auxiliary work requirements related to whether or not to activate the setting function for performing delivery work for multiple orders at once can also be output from the page of FIG. 9, and depending on the embodiment, information for inputting and registering essential work requirements can also be set to be output from the page.

[0105] FIG. 10 is a diagram illustrating an example in which guidance information regarding a plurality of business requirements output from the user device 200 according to various embodiments is set to be displayed based on priority.

[0106] As shown in FIG. 10, a priority for displaying each piece of guidance information 1001 for each task requirement included in the plurality of task requirements can be determined 1003, and each piece of guidance information can be displayed on the page output by the user device 200 to the delivery person according to the priority determined in this manner.

[0107] 10, the priority of the essential task requirements can be set higher than the priority of the auxiliary task requirements, so that each piece of guidance information related to the essential task requirements can be displayed higher than each piece of guidance information related to the auxiliary task requirements. For example, guidance information related to multiple task requirements can be displayed in a certain order in the format shown in FIG. 5.

[0108] In addition, in FIG. 10, the color in which each piece of guidance information regarding essential work requirements is displayed in banner form can be set to be different from the color in which each piece of guidance information regarding auxiliary work requirements is displayed in banner form, thereby allowing delivery personnel to manage essential work requirements and auxiliary work requirements in a way that distinguishes them.

[0109] According to the example of priority in FIG. 10, if all of the guidance information shown in FIG. 10 needs to be provided to the delivery person, the following information may be displayed at the top of the screen of the user device 200, in order: 1) guidance information regarding mandatory work requirements related to license information registration, 2) guidance information regarding mandatory work requirements related to taking safety training, 3) guidance information regarding mandatory work requirements related to certification for wearing a hard hat, 4) guidance information regarding auxiliary work requirements related to address registration for insurance enrollment, and 5) guidance information regarding auxiliary work requirements related to whether or not a setting function for performing delivery work for multiple orders at once is activated.
