<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To optimize an allocation process without causing stock shortage even if article orders are allocated at the time of settlement. <P>SOLUTION: A temporary order allocation process part 11 temporarily allocates article orders at the expected time of article purchase and updates the display of the number of articles in stock via a display updating part 13. Also, an order allocation part 12 actually allocates article orders as the articles temporarily allocated in advance are settled; if the articles are not settled, the number of temporarily allocated articles in stock is canceled via an order allocation canceling part 14. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2005,JPO&NCIPI |
