  • Transaction adjusting device
    Patent number: 7587328
    Abstract: A transaction coordinating device 100 is composed, in which a transportation adjusting portion 140 is provided for adjusting an insertion of cargo transportation of a spot transaction with respect to a schedule of single and/or plural cargo transportation of predetermined fixed transactions, in the event an insertion of a spot transaction based on a temporary contract with respect to fixed transactions based on the contracts of predetermined period of time is adjusted. Accordingly, inserting cargo transportation of a spot transaction easily into a schedule of single and/or plural cargo transportation of fixed transactions becomes possible even in the event that a spot transaction arises suddenly, and further inserting a commodity transaction under a flexible contract into commodity transactions under rigid contract simply also becomes possible.
