[1. Overview]
First, an overview of the present invention will be described with reference to Fig. 1. Fig. 1 is a diagram showing an example of an inventory management processing flow in this embodiment.

Previously, when receiving base materials from steel manufacturers etc., it was necessary to print and affix labels issued by the company to the base materials, but there was a possibility of affixing the labels incorrectly, which resulted in a large workload. Also, previously, in order to use the inventory labels issued by the manufacturer as is, it was necessary to be able to uniquely identify the inventory by the manufacturer's lot number, but this was not possible because the numbers would loop and become duplicated after several years.

Therefore, in this embodiment, by adopting the processing flow shown in Figure 1, a number that uniquely identifies the inventory is set in the "inventory identification number," and the manufacturer lot number encoded in the barcode printed on the inventory label is set in the "barcode number." When inventory is received, the barcode on the inventory label is read, and purchase data is automatically created (simplifying the receiving process), and when inventory is taken, the barcode on the inventory label is read, and a mechanism is provided that identifies the inventory based on the barcode number and enables inventory taking.

3. Specific Examples
A specific example of this embodiment will be described with reference to FIGS.

[Inventory management process]
An example of inventory management processing in this embodiment will now be described with reference to Fig. 3. Fig. 3 is a flow chart showing an example of processing by the inventory management device 100 in this embodiment.

As shown in FIG. 3, the inventory registration unit 102a registers order data in the product management database 106a based on the expected arrival data from the manufacturer (step SA-1).

Then, the inventory registration unit 102a determines whether the product has an inventory label issued by the manufacturer (step SA-2).

If the inventory registration unit 102a determines that the product has an inventory label issued by the manufacturer (step SA-2: Yes), it transitions the process to step SA-3.

Then, the inventory registration unit 102a assigns a product inventory identification number to the product based on the read data, which is set by the user via the input device (handheld terminal) 112 and sets the product's manufacturer lot number from the inventory label issued by the manufacturer, and the order data stored in the product management database 106a, and obtains purchase data that is set by linking the product's purchase quantity, product inventory identification number, manufacturer lot number, and product rank related to the ownership of the product (step SA-3).

Then, the inventory registration unit 102a registers in the product management database 106a the current inventory data that is set by linking the product's inventory quantity, product inventory identification number, and manufacturer lot number based on the read data that sets the product's manufacturer lot number read by the user from the manufacturer-issued inventory label via the input device (handheld terminal) 112 and the order data stored in the product management database 106a (step SA-4), and proceeds to step SA-8.

On the other hand, if the inventory registration unit 102a determines that the product does not have a manufacturer-issued inventory label (step SA-2: No), it transitions the process to step SA-5.

Then, the inventory registration unit 102a assigns a product inventory identification number for the product based on the order data stored in the product management database 106a, adopts the product inventory identification number as a manufacturer lot number, and obtains purchase data that links the purchase quantity of the product, the product inventory identification number, the manufacturer lot number, and the product rank related to the ownership of the product (step SA-5).

Then, the inventory registration unit 102a registers the current inventory data, which is set by linking the inventory quantity of the product, the product inventory identification number, and the manufacturer lot number, which is the product inventory identification number, in the product management database 106a based on the order data stored in the product management database 106a (step SA-6).

Then, the inventory registration unit 102a causes the output device 114 to print out an inventory label containing a barcode that can read the manufacturer's lot number, which is the product inventory identification number (step SA-7), and moves the process to step SA-8.

Then, the product management execution unit 102b executes the product management process based on the product management process execution instruction set by the user via the input device 112, the re-read data read by the user via the input device (handheld terminal) 112 from the inventory label of the product that is the target of the product management process, and the current inventory data stored in the product management database 106a (step SA-8), and ends the process.

Now, an example of the inventory management process in this embodiment will be described with reference to Figures 4 to 14. Figures 4 to 14 are diagrams showing an example of the inventory management process in this embodiment.

As shown in FIG. 4, in this embodiment, order data is registered based on inventory schedule data from the manufacturer.

As shown in FIG. 5, in this embodiment, the base material is received from the manufacturer. Here, the inventory label issued by the manufacturer and affixed to the actual base material in this embodiment contains a barcode that encodes the product code, manufacturer lot number, quantity, weight, and manufacturer lot number.

As shown in FIG. 6, in this embodiment, the barcodes on the inventory labels (A, B) are read via a handheld terminal connected to an in-house PC via a wireless LAN or the like, and the order data is referenced based on the barcode number, and associated purchasing data is created.

As shown in FIG. 7, in this embodiment, for product S002 that does not have a manufacturer-issued inventory label, registration is performed on the purchase input screen, and an inventory identification number is automatically assigned at the time of registration. Since there is no barcode number, the barcode number is set to the same value as the automatically assigned inventory identification number.

As shown in FIG. 8, in this embodiment, labels are issued and replaced only for the S002 products that could not be processed by the handheld terminal. Here, on the label issuance processing screen in this embodiment, if labels are issued with the "Include handheld processing" check box unchecked, only inventory data for inventory identification number = barcode number can be extracted.

As shown in FIG. 9, in this embodiment, an inventory of barcode number: B is conducted when there is currently stock in stock, the inventory data as of the inventory date is updated to the pre-inventory processing data, and after the pre-inventory processing is performed, an inventory entry form is printed.

As shown in FIG. 10, in this embodiment, the barcode on the inventory label is read by the handheld terminal while the user confirms the items listed on the inventory sheet, and the inventory is carried out; that is, the barcode number of the current inventory data is matched to uniquely identify the inventory. Here, in this embodiment, if there are multiple current inventory data with the same barcode number, the inventory data of the first line sorted in descending order of the current inventory quantity is obtained. For example, as shown in FIG. 10, in this embodiment, the barcode of B is read, and the inventory data of the first line sorted in descending order of the current inventory (inventory identification number: L003) is displayed, and the inventory update process is executed to complete the inventory operation.

Also, as shown in Figures 11 to 14, in this embodiment, after the parent material purchased by the company is purchased, the barcode is transferred when the parent material is sold, the parent material is stored, and the parent material is processed. That is, in this embodiment, after the parent material is sold (Figure 12) or when the parent material is stored (Figure 13), the barcode of the parent material is registered as the barcode number, making it possible to record the parent material in inventory. Here, the parent material sales in this embodiment is a process of selling the parent material purchased as the company's product to a customer (however, since the processing itself is not performed immediately, the item is left in the company for a while). In addition, the parent material storage in this embodiment is a process of recording the parent material in inventory at 0 yen, and the manufacturer lot number held in the parent material can be transferred. Therefore, when the parent material is stored in the company, the item itself is the same, but the asset is transferred from the company to another company, so that the product key data would normally change (i.e., label replacement is required), but the barcode number is transferred, making label replacement unnecessary. Also, as shown in FIG. 14, in this embodiment, the product made by processing the entrusted item has the same barcode number as the base material, so that the mill sheet link can be inherited. Here, the mill sheet is an inspection certificate issued by the manufacturer that certifies the material and quality of the steel material, and is linked to the manufacturer lot number.
