Confirmation unit 102a as confirmation means to perform, and (2) when the mouth classification confirmed by the confirmation means is the mouth goods classification, the mouth inventory data is updated, and the mouth classification confirmed by the confirmation means is the normal If the product category is the product category, the inventory data update unit 102b as the inventory data update unit for updating the normal inventory data, and (3) if the product category confirmed by the confirmation unit is the product category, the input product The quantity included in the inventory data associated with the identification data and the model identification data is updated based on the input quantity, and the classifications confirmed by the confirmation means are the A quantity update unit 102b1 as quantity update means for updating the quantity included in the normal inventory data linked to the inputted product identification data in the case of the regular goods classification, based on the inputted quantity; Yes. Among these, the quantity update unit 102b1 is an arbitrary component, but is preferably included in the control unit 102. The details of the processing executed by each unit are described in [3. Specific Example of Processing] will be described.

[3. Specific example of processing]
Hereinafter, a specific example of the processing according to the present embodiment will be described mainly with reference to FIG. In this item, first, the scene of (1) purchase input in FIG. 3 will be described, and then (2) various kinds of exit processing will be described.

[3-1. Purchase input]
First, the purchase input scene (1) in FIG. 3 will be described in detail.

(Confirmation process)
The confirmation unit 102a confirms whether the mouth category included in the product master 106c associated with the inputted product identification data is the mouth product category or the normal product category.

  Specifically, as shown in the purchase specification data 106b of FIG. 3, it is assumed that SYO001 and PC 00201 of line number 1 are input as the product identification data (product CD and product name). Here, referring to the merchandise master 106c of FIG. 3, it can be seen that the mouth classifications associated with SYO001 and PC 00201 are mouth goods classification (1: mouth goods). As described above, the confirmation unit 102a confirms that the mouth classifications associated with SYO001 and PC 00201 are the mouth goods classification.

  As shown in the purchase specification data 106b in FIG. 3, the product (lined personal computer) of line number 1 in the previous paragraph is a product (product identification data is the same, but is a black personal computer) related to various products. When SYO001 and PC 00201 of line number 3 are input, the confirmation unit 102a confirms that the mouth classification associated with the black personal computer is the mouth goods classification by the same method as in the previous paragraph.

  On the other hand, as shown in the purchase specification data 106b in FIG. 3, it is assumed that the SYO002 and LAN cable of line number 2 are input as the product identification data (product CD and product name). Here, referring to the merchandise master 106c in FIG. 3, it can be seen that the mouth classifications associated with SYO002 and the LAN cable are normal goods classification (0: normal goods). As described above, the confirmation unit 102a confirms that the mouth classifications associated with SYO002 and the LAN cable are normal product classifications.

(Inventory data update process)
The stock data update unit 102b updates the stock data 106e when the product category confirmed by the confirmation unit 102a is the product category, and updates the stock data 106e when the product category confirmed by the confirmation unit 102a is the normal product category. 106d is updated.

  Specifically, the product of line number 1 (white personal computer) and the product of line number 3 (black personal computer) in the purchase specification data 106b of FIG. As shown in FIG. 3, this information is stored in the various inventory data 106e. On the other hand, as shown in FIG. 3, the information about the product (LAN cable) of the line number 2 in the purchase specification data 106b shown in FIG. 106d.

  As described above, according to the inventory management apparatus 100 according to the present embodiment, the white personal computer and the black personal computer having the same product CD and product name are not registered in the product master 106c. If only product information is registered in the product master 106c in advance, both personal computers can be stored and managed in the stock data 106e. That is, according to the inventory management apparatus 100 according to the present embodiment, the same product identification data common to all the products with different colors and performances can be obtained without registering all products with different colors and performances in the product master. By setting at least one item in the product master in advance, it is possible to accurately manage all the products having the different colors and different performances, so that the load on inventory management can be greatly reduced.

[3-2. Various goods issue processing Sales input / movement input]
Next, the scenes of the various goods issue processing sales input / movement input of (2) of FIG. 3 are demonstrated concretely.

(Quantity update process)
The quantity update unit 102b1 determines the quantity included in the multi-unit inventory data 106e associated with the input product identification data and model identification data when the multi-unit classification confirmed by the confirmation unit 102a is the multi-product class. Update based on.

  Specifically, as shown in the sales details data 106g in FIG. 3, SYO001 and PC 00201 of the line number 1 are input as the product identification data (product CD and product name), and the model identification data (model) is the row. When white number 300GHZ of number 1 is input, the confirmation unit 102a causes the [3-1. ], It is confirmed that the mouth classifications associated with SYO001 and PC 00201 are the mouth goods classification. In this case, the quantity update unit 102b1 performs the following processing with reference to the various stock data 106e. That is, referring to the various stock data 106e in FIG. 3, it can be seen that the quantity (number of warehousing) associated with SYO001, PC 00201, and White / 300GHZ is ten. On the other hand, as shown in the sales details data 106g in FIG. As described above, the quantity update unit 102b1 subtracts the input quantity (4 units) from the quantity (10 units) included in the unit inventory data 106e, and shows the unit inventory data 106e (after update) in FIG. In addition, the number of stocks is updated to 6 by calculating the number of warehouses 10-the number of warehouses 4 = 6 units. Note that there are the following two points to be noted regarding the processing performed by the quantity update unit 102b1.

  First, the calculation performed by the quantity update unit 102b1 is not limited to subtraction, and may be addition. For example, the addition is performed as follows when a product having the same product identification data and the same type identification data as the product already existing in the various stock data 106e is additionally purchased. For example, in the state in which ten products (white personal computers) in the first row of the various stock data 106e in FIG. 3 already exist, a white personal computer having the same product identification data and the same type identification data is added. In the case where only three units are additionally purchased, the quantity update unit 102b1 uses the same method as in the previous paragraph to input the purchased quantity (three units) to the number of receipts (ten units) included in the inventory data 106e. And the number of white PCs in line number 1 in the various inventory data 106e may be updated to 13 by calculating 10 units + 3 units = 13 units.

  Secondly, the input quantity is not limited to the sales quantity. For example, as described in the previous paragraph, when an additional product is purchased, the quantity entered is the quantity purchased. In addition, when the stock stored in the various stock data 106e is moved to another company warehouse, the input quantity is the transfer quantity.

  The quantity update unit 102b1 updates the quantity included in the normal inventory data 106d, which is linked to the input product identification data, based on the input quantity when the mouthpiece category confirmed by the confirmation unit 102a is the normal product category. To do.

  Specifically, as shown in the sales statement data 106g in FIG. 3, when SYO002 of line number 2 is input as the product identification data (product CD), the confirmation unit 102a causes the [3-1. ], It is confirmed that the mouth classification associated with SYO002 is the normal product classification. In this case, the quantity update unit 102b1 refers to the normal inventory data 106d and performs the following processing. That is, referring to the normal inventory data 106d in FIG. 3, it can be seen that the quantity (number of warehousing) linked to SYO002 is ten. On the other hand, it can be seen that the input quantity is three sales quantities of line number 2 as shown in the sales details data 106g of FIG. As described above, the quantity update unit 102b1 subtracts the input quantity (three) from the quantity (10) included in the normal inventory data 106d, and shows the normal inventory data 106d (after update) in FIG. In addition, the number of stocks is updated to 7 by calculating the number of warehousing 10-the number of leaving 3 = 7.

  In this way, if the inventory management apparatus 100 according to the present embodiment includes the quantity update unit 102b1, for example, it is possible to accurately manage the increase / decrease in “inventory quantity” for products with different colors or different performance.
