The book button mask file 2 stores code information corresponding to each button of the key mat 1.

The code conversion function unit 3 searches and reads out the code corresponding to the pressed button of the keymat 1 from the book button mask file 2, and converts it into the repair part information and work classification information inputted by the keymat 1, respectively. A work code (one part code + work classification code) is created by combining the corresponding part code and work classification code.

The work mask file 4 is searched using the work code created by the code conversion function unit 3, and this work mask file 4 includes work name information indicating the work name, man-hour information indicating the standard work man-hours, and special work information. Comment information indicating the presence or absence of the work code and parts index information are stored for each work code. Although the man-hour information indicates the standard time required for repair work, the time required for repair work also differs depending on the type of vehicle to be repaired. Therefore, the man-hour information is set for each vehicle type to be repaired.

The comment mask file 5 is searched by the work code created by the code conversion function unit 3, and contains information indicating the special work area and the premium amount or rate of the wage corresponding to the special work for each work code. Stored.

The parts index mask file 6 is searched by the work code created by the code conversion function section 3, and stores potentially usable part codes and the number of parts to be used for each work code. Furthermore, this parts index mask file 6 contains parts selection information (door door) inputted using keymat l so that not only work codes but also parts selection information can be selected. The type, grade, and mission part mask file 7 is searched by the part code selected in the part mask file 6, and includes part name information indicating the part name corresponding to the part code, purchasing unit price, and sales of the part. The unit price, the start date and end date of use of the part, and the number of stocks of the part are stored for each part code.

The estimate file 8 stores information for preparing an estimate obtained by the estimate processing function unit 8, that is, the vehicle, customer, repair details, repair cost, estimate expiration date, delivery date, payment terms, and the like.

The contents of the estimate file 8 are printed as an estimate 9 for repairing the damaged vehicle, and information on parts inventory shortage based on the inventory information obtained from the parts mask file 7 is printed on the parts order form 10.

The estimate processing function unit 11 refers to the work mask file 4, the comment mask file 5, the parts index mask file 6, and the parts mask file 7, and calculates the estimate.
The accident car repair estimate 9 and the parts order form IO are printed out.

FIG. 2 shows a specific example of the button arrangement on the key mat 1. As shown in FIG. Here, only buttons for inputting the vehicle type and buttons for inputting parts selection information (grade, door type, transmission type, engine type) are shown. For example, in the key mat 1 of Fig. 2, when the button indicated by a black circle is pressed, the car model name is "02", the grade is "G3s", and the door type is "D4" indicating 4 doors. , rMAJ indicating automatic as mission type, rZ 18s as engine
J will be input.

Next, with reference to FIG. 3, the operation of the vehicle repair estimate creation device shown in FIG. 1 will be explained.

First, the repair person or person in charge of creating the estimate must use key mat 1.
Enter the registration number of the accident vehicle and its first registration date using Work classification information corresponding to the part is input by button operation.

When vehicle information is input in this manner, the book button master file 2 is referred to by the code conversion function section 3, thereby obtaining code information corresponding to the vehicle information. The repair part code corresponding to the repair part and the work classification code corresponding to the work classification information are combined into one work code and sent to the estimate processing function section 11.

For example, as shown in FIG. 3(A), when "radiator" is selected as the repair part by key mat 1 and "removal" is selected as the work classification information,
The code r9101J corresponding to the radiator and the code "91" corresponding to the attachment/detachment work are combined to create the work code "91°191".

The estimate processing function unit 11 uses this work code r to calculate the work wage corresponding to the work code r910191.
Reference is made to work mask file 4 based on 910191J.

In this work mask file 4, as shown in FIG. 3(A), "Radiator installation/removal" is registered as the work name corresponding to the work code "r910191".
The number of man-hours (time required for work) for each vehicle model is registered as the standard wage corresponding to work code r910191J, and it is also registered that work code 910191J involves special work, and furthermore, work code r910191J includes required parts. Grade (G) and engine (E) when deciding
Information indicating that it is necessary to specify component selection information is also registered.

The estimate processing function unit 11 calculates a standard wage based on the standard man-hours (4,50 hours) corresponding to the vehicle type information "02" inputted in the key mat 1. Standard wages are calculated by: standard wages - standard man-hours x wages per unit hour. If the wage per unit hour is 2000 (yen/H) and the standard number of man-hours is 4.50 (H), the standard wage will be -4,50 x 2000 - 9000 yen.

Next, the estimate processing function unit 11 converts the comment mask file 5 into a work code r910 in order to reflect the extra amount associated with special work on the standard wage calculated in this way.
Search based on 191J.

As shown in FIG. 3(B), this work mask file 4 includes, for example, the extra charge for special work corresponding to the work code "910191J: 1,000 yen extra for a radiator with an oil cooler, It is registered that the radiator with a fan is 10% more expensive.

Here, since the work code r910191J corresponds to both the oil cooler arrival and the electric fan maintenance, two special wages are taken into consideration: special labor - 1000 yen and special labor - 9000 x 10/100 - 900 yen.

In other words, the labor cost is Labor wage - standard wage + special wage -9000+1900 110,900 yen is calculated.

Next, the estimate processing function unit 11 sends the work code “9101
In order to calculate the parts fee corresponding to R91J, the parts index mask file 6 is searched based on this work code r910191J.

To select parts corresponding to the work code r910191J, as mentioned above, not only the work code but also the grade (G)
Since it is also necessary to specify parts selection information for the engine (E) and the engine (E), the parts index mask file 6 has the work code r910.
The search is performed using both 191J and the input component selection information.

As shown in FIG. 3(C), the parts index mask file 6 includes "work code r910191", rAPC5489001J and rT as part codes corresponding to grade rG3sJ and engine type rZ18sJ.
VcO187561" is registered, and the part code rAPC5489001J and rTVcO18756 are also registered.
The required number of parts for 1J is "1" and "3" respectively.
is registered.

After this, part code rAPc5489001J and r
Based on TVcO187561J, estimate processing function section 1
1, the component mask file 7 is searched.

In the component mask file 7, as shown in Figure 3 (D), the part name corresponding to the part code rAPC5489001 is ``Radiator'', and the unit purchase price is r15,000 yen, and the unit sales price is r20,000. It is registered and also has the part code “TvCO18756”.
"Antifreeze" is registered as the part name corresponding to "1", "300 yen" is registered as the unit purchase price, and "400 yen" is registered as the unit sales price. Furthermore, the parts mask file 7 registers the start date and end date of use of each part, and this information determines whether the part is suitable for the first year registration date of the vehicle to be repaired. It is used to check. In this case, if the initial registration date of the vehicle to be repaired falls between the date of start of use and the date of end of use, the part specified by the part code is suitable for the vehicle to be repaired. It is recognized as

The estimate processing function unit 11 calculates the parts cost based on the sales unit price of the parts and the required number of parts. Then, the estimate processing function unit 11 displays the vehicle to be repaired, the details of the work, the labor charges, the parts used, the parts charges, the billed amount, etc. on a display (not shown) in the format shown in FIG. is printed out as an accident vehicle repair estimate 9. Also,
The estimate processing function unit 11 performs inventory management based on the number of parts in stock provided by the parts mask file 7, and prints out a parts order form 10 as necessary.

As described above, in this embodiment, the number of work hours corresponding to each repair condition, as well as the part name corresponding to that repair condition, the number of necessary parts, and the part unit price information are stored in the file. By simply inputting the repair conditions, it is possible to select the work man-hours appropriate to the repair conditions, as well as part names, required number of parts, and parts unit price information suitable to the repair conditions.

In addition, the file also provides information on whether or not the part is suitable for the model year of the vehicle to be repaired, making it possible to select the appropriate part. Furthermore, the work fee is automatically calculated from the work man-hours, and the parts price is automatically calculated from the part name, the required number of parts, and part unit price information. Moreover, for work that involves special work, the special work wage is also reflected in the work wage, so errors in calculation of wages due to omission of conditions can be prevented.

In addition, since parts inventory management is performed in conjunction with the creation of estimates, purchase orders can be automatically created in the event of a parts shortage.

[Effects of the Invention] As described above, according to the present invention, it is possible to quickly create an accurate vehicle repair estimate simply by inputting repair conditions, regardless of the skill level of the estimate creator. , it is possible to improve the efficiency of estimate preparation work.
