DEVICE AND APPLICATION FOR FACILITATING, MAKING MORE EFFICIENT AND CONTROLLING THE REPLENISHING AND REMOVAL OF GOODS (ARTICLES) IN PREMISES, PARTICULARLY IN SHOPS

摘要

For one or more product lines that can be placed on shelves in a shop, a device is used which works with two sub-functions. A first sub-function relates to the exchanging of price information and other information between a computer system and electronic labels positioned on the shelves via wire-based, two-way communication. The second sub-function relates to representations generated in or on the computer system of all or parts of the shelf system showing the shelves with goods completely or partially replenished or removed. The first and second sub-functions work together and provide, at different detection points and different locations of the goods, compilations or indications of the removal of goods caused by the customers of the shop. The compilations or indications are used as the basis for evaluations of the relationship of the removal of goods to the location of the goods or commodities on the shelves.
