Abstract
In an LP gas delivery business, when the preparation of a delivery list for a next day delivery amount is followed by a delivery operation, a discrepancy is caused between the delivery list and a delivery record. On the other hand, the delivery due date is determined so as to avoid a gas shortage. The delivery prior to the delivery due date has no problem. Thus, the delivery list in the LP gas delivery business is prepared by setting, as data for a next day delivery amount, not data having a delivery due date of a next day but data after α days (e.g., after 2 days).
