METHOD FOR ALLOCATING PRODUCT QUANTITY TO SELLER NODE AND APPARATUS THEREFOR

摘要

Provided is a product quantity allocation method and apparatus which supports each seller node to have a separate allocation rule applied thereto in a method for allocating a product quantity to each seller node in a top-down scheme in a seller network including a plurality of seller nodes having a hierarchical connection relationship. The present invention comprises the steps of: matching a first allocation rule to a first seller node from among the plurality of seller nodes; matching a second allocation rule different from the first allocation rule to a second seller node different from the first seller node, from among the plurality of seller nodes; allocating at least some of allocable product quantities of the first seller node to a sub-seller node of the first seller node, using the first allocation rule; and allocating at least some of allocable product quantities of the second seller node to a sub-seller node of the second seller node, using the second allocation rule.
