Description

Electronic apparatus for managing item information and method thereof The present disclosure relates to an electronic device and a method for managing information on newly released items based on existing items through an item sales service. The core of an item sales service is to quickly provide a variety of items at competitive prices to meet user demand. The term "variety of items" goes beyond simply having a large variety of items; it can also refer to multiple versions of an item—both before and after the renewal—when the item has been repeatedly renewed. In other words, selling various versions of items can be one way to secure a competitive edge for an item sales service. However, item renewals can lead to various issues in the item sales service. For instance, if consistent item quality cannot be guaranteed before and after the renewal, user trust and loyalty may not be maintained. Furthermore, failure to predict demand for items before and after the renewal could result in excess inventory or stockouts. Moreover, if user feedback accumulated from pre-renewal items is not provided during post-renewal sales, users will inevitably face difficulties in purchasing items due to a lack of information. In this regard, prior art such as KR2600635B1 and KR2585961B1 may be referenced. FIG. 1 is a schematic diagram showing a system including an electronic device according to one embodiment. FIG. 2 is a flowchart illustrating a method for managing information on items sold on an item sales service according to one embodiment. FIG. 3 is a flowchart illustrating a method for managing information on items sold on an item sales service according to another embodiment. Figure 4 is an exemplary drawing of item information before and after renewal. Figure 5 is an exemplary drawing to explain item information before and after renewal in more detail. Figure 6 is an exemplary diagram of a flag for an item created based on a Stock Keeping Unit (SKU) identifier. FIG. 7 is a block diagram illustrating an electronic device according to one embodiment. Specific embodiments will be described below with reference to the drawings. The following detailed description is provided to facilitate a comprehensive understanding of the methods, devices, and/or systems described herein. However, this is merely illustrative and the disclosed embodiments are not limited thereto. In describing the embodiments, if it is determined that a detailed description of the related prior art could unnecessarily obscure the essence of the disclosed embodiments, such detailed description will be omitted. Furthermore, the terms described below are defined in consideration of their functions in the disclosed embodiments, and these may vary depending on the intentions or practices of the user or operator. Therefore, such definitions should be based on the content throughout this specification. Terms used in the detailed description are intended merely to describe the embodiments and should not be limiting. Unless explicitly stated otherwise, expressions in the singular form include the meaning of the plural form.

The terms used in the embodiments have been selected to be as widely used as possible, taking into account their functions in the present disclosure; however, these may vary depending on the intent of those skilled in the art, case law, the emergence of new technologies, etc. Additionally, in specific cases, terms have been arbitrarily selected by the applicant, and in such cases, their meanings will be described in detail in the relevant explanatory section. Therefore, terms used in the present disclosure should be defined not merely by their names, but based on their meanings and the overall content of the present disclosure. When a part throughout the specification is described as "comprising" a certain component, this means that, unless specifically stated otherwise, it does not exclude other components but may include additional components. Furthermore, terms such as "...part" or "...module" as used in the specification refer to a unit that processes at least one function or operation; this unit may be implemented in hardware or software, or as a combination of hardware and software, and may not be clearly distinguishable in terms of specific operation, unlike the illustrated examples. The expression "at least one of a, b, and c" described throughout the specification may include 'a alone', 'b alone', 'c alone', 'a and b', 'a and c', 'b and c', or 'a, b, and c all'.
