Description

Discount coupon management system and method

The present invention relates to a discount coupon management system and method, and more particularly to a discount coupon management system and method that can be managed using a non-relational (NoSQL) database.

The business system of today's online shopping service systems is constantly booming. In order to attract users, online shopping service systems often use the way of giving discount coupons. Today's online shopping service systems only use a relational database to store customer and discount coupon collection and use records. However, as the issuance of discount coupons is gradually expanding, the operation of the database such as finding customer discount data or importing new discount coupon content has affected the performance of the database more and more. If only the traditional relational database is used, the burden on the online shopping service system will become heavier.

Therefore, it is necessary to invent a newly designed discount coupon management system and method to solve the deficiency of the previous technology.

The main purpose of the present invention is to provide a discount coupon management system which can achieve the effect of displaying data in a graphical framework.

Another main object of the present invention is to provide a method for managing coupons for the above system.

In order to achieve the above-mentioned object, the discount coupon management system of the present invention is used in an online shopping platform system to manage a plurality of discount coupons possessed by the online shopping platform, and the online shopping platform system is provided for a plurality of client connections. The discount coupon management system includes a database and a management module. The database is a non-associative (NoSQL) database used to store plural client data and plural coupon data. The management module is electrically connected to the database. The management module includes an information display module, which is used to read the plurality of client data and the discount coupon data in the database, and display the connection relationship between the plurality of clients and the discount coupons in a graphical framework.

The discount coupon management method of the present invention includes: storing a plurality of client data and a plurality of coupon data in a non-associative (NoSQL) database; and reading the plurality of client data and the plurality of data in the database The discount coupon information displays the connection relationship between the plurality of client terminals and the plurality of discount coupons by a graphic structure.

In order to make your reviewing committee better understand the technical content of the present invention, specific preferred embodiments are described below.

Please refer to FIG. 1 below for a schematic diagram of a discount coupon management system of the present invention.

The discount coupon management system 10 of the present invention is used in an online shopping platform system 1 system, and the online shopping platform system 1 system is used by a plurality of client terminals 2a, 2b, and 2c. The plurality of discount coupons provided by the online shopping platform system 1 can be used by the clients 2a, 2b, and 2c for shopping. The discount coupon management system 10 is used to manage a plurality of discount coupons. The coupon management system 10 includes a database 20 and a management module 30. The database 20 is a non-associative (NoSQL) database 20 for storing a plurality of client data 40, a plurality of discount coupon data 50, and a plurality of product data 60. The plurality of client data 40 includes a user number, the plurality of discount coupon data 50 includes a discount coupon lot number and a discount coupon number, etc., and the plurality of commodity data 60 includes a corresponding commodity number, etc., but the present invention does not Limited to this.

The management module 30 is electrically connected to the database 20. The management module 30 includes an information display module 31, an execution module 32, and a push module 33. The information display module 31 is used to read the plurality of client data 40 and the plurality of discount coupon data 50 in the database 20, and display the plurality of client terminals 2a, 2b, 2c and the plurality of discounts in a graphical framework. Bonding relationship of bonds 51, 52, 53. In addition, the information display module 31 further includes reading the plurality of product data 60, and displaying the connection relationship between the plurality of discount coupons 51, 52, and 53 and the plurality of products 61, 62, and 63 through a graphic framework.

Please refer to FIG. 2 for a connection diagram of the plurality of client terminals and the plurality of discount coupons of the present invention.

The data of the plural clients 2a, 2b, 2c and the plural discount coupons 51, 52, 53 are included in FIG. The information display module 31 can express the relationship between the data of the plural client terminals 2a, 2b, and 2c and the data of the plural discount coupons 51, 52, and 53 with a Graph Base structure, and express it in an intuitive graphical manner. The management method of discount coupons, for example, uses solid lines and dashed lines to represent whether the client terminals 2a, 2b, 2c have received and used a discount coupon. Taking FIG. 2 as an example, the existence of the wired connection between the client 2a and the discount coupons 51 and 52 indicates that the client 2a has received the discount coupons 51 and 52, and the solid line of the client 2a and the discount coupon 51 indicates that the discount coupon has been used. The dotted line between the client 2a and the discount coupon 52 represents that the discount coupon has not been used. No line exists between the client 2a and the discount coupon 53, which indicates that the client 2a has not received the discount coupon 53. Similarly, FIG. 2 shows that the client 2b has already received the discount coupons 51 and 53 and all of them have been used. The user terminal 2c receives all the discount coupons 51, 52, and 53 but has not used them. The connection relationship in FIG. 2 is only schematic, and the present invention is not limited thereto.

Please refer to FIG. 3, which is a schematic diagram of the connection of the plurality of products, the plurality of clients and the plurality of discount coupons according to the present invention.

In addition to the data of the plurality of client terminals 2a, 2b, 2c and the data of the plurality of discount coupons 51, 52, 53, the information display module 31 can also read the plurality of product data 60 from the database 20. Through the graphic framework, a plurality of client terminals 2a, 2b, 2c, the plurality of discount coupons 51, 52, 53 and the plurality of goods 61, 62, 63 are connected. For example, as can be seen from FIG. 3, the discount coupons 51, 52, and 53 can be used for the commodity 61, the discount coupons 52 and 53 can be used for the commodity 62, and the discount coupon 53 can be used for the commodity 63. Therefore, the information display module 31 can express the connection relationship from the user terminals 2a, 2b, 2c to the products 61, 62, 63 in an intuitive graphical manner. The connection relationship in FIG. 3 is merely schematic, and the present invention is not limited thereto.

The execution module 32 of the management module 30 is used for the plurality of clients 2a, 2b, 2c to operate, so that any one of the clients 2a, 2b, 2c can establish a connection with the plurality of discount coupons 51, 52, 53, That is, any one of the client terminals 2a, 2b, and 2c can conveniently receive all the plurality of discount coupons 51, 52, and 53 at a time. The execution module 32 also updates the plurality of client data 40 and the plurality of discount coupon data 50 in the database 20 simultaneously. The push module 33 of the management module 30 is used to push a new discount coupon message to the plurality of clients 2a, 2b, and 2c, so that the clients 2a, 2b, and 2c can learn the current new discount coupon information.

It should be noted that the modules of the coupon management system 10 can be structured by hardware devices, software programs combined with hardware devices, and firmware combined with hardware devices. For example, a computer program product can be stored in a computer program product. The computer-readable medium can read and execute various functions of the invention to achieve the invention, but the invention is not limited to the above-mentioned manner.
