Description

[Technical field]

[0001] The present invention relates to a comparison device that compares information about a user who uses a managed object with other information. [Background technology]

[0002] For example, usage fees and management fees for items (tools and equipment) managed within an organization may be charged or transferred between departments. Since payment of fees is based on personnel information, the manager of each item must always check the latest personnel information. To address this, there are systems that obtain and manage the latest personnel information. These systems can provide the latest personnel information from an employee database.

[0003] The following prior art is included as background art in this technical field. Patent Document 1 (International Publication WO 2011 / 080874) describes a user information utilization system including: a user information storage means for retaining user information; a temporary ID acquisition means for acquiring a temporary ID, which is an identifier for recognizing the identity of a user among a plurality of devices or a plurality of businesses and corresponds to a user of the retained user information; a user information comparison and judgment means for comparing the user information of a plurality of users that has been duly read out in response to a user information comparison and judgment request that specifies two or more acquired temporary IDs and a predetermined condition indicating a desired relationship between the plurality of users indicated by the two or more temporary IDs, to judge whether the relationship between the specified users satisfies the predetermined condition and outputting the result; and a process execution means for inputting the user information comparison and judgment result and executing a predetermined process based on the inputted comparison and judgment result.

[0004] Patent document 2 (JP 2021-033654 A) describes a personnel data provision system that includes a master data storage unit containing personnel information of employees etc., a working data storage unit that is synchronized with the master data storage unit and can be accessed by a first worker, an item receiving unit that receives from the first worker a selection of items from the personnel information of employees etc. that are necessary or unnecessary for a specified purpose, a dataset generation unit that generates from the working data storage unit a dataset consisting of personnel information corresponding to the necessary items or a dataset consisting of personnel information from which information corresponding to the unnecessary items has been excluded, and a dataset providing unit that provides the dataset to a second worker.

[0005] Patent Document 3 (Japanese Patent Application Publication No. 2009-122834) describes a device for analyzing communication between organizations by displaying, between icons representing a first organization, a line segment of a thickness proportional to the duration of communication between the members belonging to the first organization and the members belonging to the second organization. The communication comparison device has an inter-organization correspondence storage unit that, when an organization is reorganized due to organizational restructuring, stores the correspondence between the organization before the reorganization and the post-reorganization organization that takes over the role that was played by the pre-reorganization organization, and an interface generation unit that, when an organizational restructuring is included within the analysis period for analyzing communication between organizations, displays the correspondence between the organizations before and after the reorganization using an icon representing the organization before the reorganization, an icon indicating that the organizational reorganization has occurred, and an icon representing the organization after the reorganization. [Prior art documents] [Patent documents]

[0006] [Patent Document 1] International Publication No. 2011 / 80874 [Patent Document 2] Patent Publication No. 2021-033654 [Patent Document 3] Patent Application No. 2009-122834 Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]

[0007] The latest personnel information can be shared using personal IDs and networks that integrate them. However, these technologies rely on accurate correspondence between individuals and departments in the personnel information.

[0008] For example, in a software company, each department manages tools and equipment used to perform business, and the person who bears the costs of the tools and each managed item may differ depending on the business content. In other words, a dedicated user list based on the business content may be required, rather than a user list in which individuals and affiliations are accurately associated in the personnel information obtained by the conventional technology. This is because personnel information may not be accurate, the department that bears the costs may differ depending on the product development project in which the user participates, or the person who bears the costs may differ depending on the employment contract form of the user, such as a dispatch contract or a contract for service. In particular, in the case of a contract for service or a contract for service, it is difficult for the business outsourcing party to manage information on product development projects in which users under the command and control of the business outsourcing party participate as personnel information, and the problem cannot be solved by the conventional technology.

[0009] An object of the present invention is to provide a technology that reduces management labor by providing a dedicated user list corresponding to each management condition from a database accumulated via a network, even in a management situation where user information cannot necessarily be uniquely determined. [Means for solving the problem]

[0010] A representative example of the invention disclosed in the present application is as follows: That is, an information comparison device, comprising an arithmetic unit that executes a program and a computer having a memory that stores the program, and comprising: a storage unit that stores management information including a user's identification information and used for managing managed items, and reference data created for personnel management and including the identification information, an information comparison function unit in which the arithmetic unit compares the management information and the reference data using the identification information as a key and stores the comparison result in the storage unit; and a correction / suggestion function unit in which the arithmetic unit uses the user's network access information obtained from outside to analyze data that is incompatible with the comparison result, generate a correction proposal for the management information, and store the generated correction proposal in the storage unit. Effect of the Invention

[0011] According to one aspect of the present invention, the number of steps required for managing management information can be reduced. Problems, configurations, and effects other than those described above will become apparent from the following description of the embodiment. [Brief description of the drawings]

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS

[0013] Hereinafter, an embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.

[0014] <Outline of the information comparison device> FIG. 1 is a diagram showing an overview of an information comparison device according to an embodiment of the present invention.

[0015] 1, when reference data 13 and management information 11 to be compared are input, an information comparison device 18 compares the management information 11 with the reference data 13 using a judgment program 12, and outputs a judgment result 16 determined under predetermined conditions. As the reference data 13, for example, a personnel database can be used, but other management information may also be used.

[0016] The judgment program 12 makes a judgment using extraction conditions 14 and judgment conditions 15 of the target management information. The extraction conditions 14 of the target management information are conditions used for extracting management items to be compared from the management information 11. The judgment conditions 15 are conditions used for judging whether the contents of the management items to be compared extracted by the extraction conditions 14 of the target management information conform to the reference data 13. The extraction conditions 14 and judgment conditions 15 of the target management information are set based on the reference data 13.

[0017] When the judgment program 12 judges that the contents of the management items do not match the reference data 13, it outputs information 17 indicating that fact as a judgment result 16. This enables the information comparison device 18 to identify the contents of the management items in the management information 11 of the management objects that do not match the reference data 13. The management objects are tools and devices that are managed in an organization and are used to carry out business operations.

[0018] The information comparison device 18 is a computer system configured with a computer having a processor (CPU), a memory, an auxiliary storage device, a communication interface, an input interface, and an output interface.

[0019] The processor is a calculation device that executes programs stored in the memory. The processor executes various programs to realize the functions of each processing unit of the information comparison device 18. Note that some of the processes performed by the processor by executing the programs may be executed by other calculation devices (e.g., hardware such as ASIC and FPGA).

[0020] Memory includes ROM, which is a non-volatile storage element, and RAM, which is a volatile storage element. ROM stores unchanging programs (e.g., BIOS), etc. RAM is a high-speed, volatile storage element such as DRAM (Dynamic Random Access Memory), and temporarily stores programs executed by a processor and data used when executing the programs.

[0021] The auxiliary storage device is, for example, a large-capacity non-volatile storage device such as a magnetic storage device (HDD) or a flash memory (SSD). The auxiliary storage device also stores data used by the processor when executing a program, and the program executed by the processor. That is, the program is read from the auxiliary storage device, loaded into the memory, and executed by the processor to realize each function of the information comparison device 18.

[0022] The communication interface is a network interface device that controls communications with other devices according to a predetermined protocol.

[0023] An input interface is an interface that receives input from a user, such as a keyboard or a mouse. An output interface is an interface that outputs the results of program execution in a format that is visible to the user, such as a display device or a printer. For example, the output interface outputs the results of program execution. The output interface may also be a data output port that outputs the results of program execution in a format that is visible to the user. A terminal connected to the computer via a network may provide the input interface and the output interface.

[0024] The program executed by the processor is provided to the computer via a removable medium (CD-ROM, flash memory, etc.) or a network, and is stored in a non-volatile auxiliary storage device, which is a non-transitory storage medium. For this reason, the information comparison device 18 may have an interface for reading data from a removable medium.

[0025] The information comparison device 18 is a computer system configured on one physical computer, or on multiple computers configured logically or physically, and may operate on a virtual computer constructed on multiple physical computer resources. For example, each functional unit may operate on a separate physical or logical computer, or multiple functional units may be combined to operate on a single physical or logical computer.

[0026] <Example of configuration of information comparison device for management information> FIG. 2 is a diagram showing an example of a configuration of the information comparison device 18 for management information according to an embodiment of the present invention.

[0027] 2, the information comparison device 18 according to this embodiment has an information comparison function 20, a storage function 30, and a correction / suggestion function 40. The information comparison function 20 and the correction / suggestion function 40 may be computer programs executed by a processor of the information comparison device 18. The storage function 30 is realized by a memory and a storage device of the management information included in the information comparison device 18.

[0028] <Memory function> The storage function 30 includes a management information storage unit 31 , a reference data storage unit 32 , a correction information storage unit 33 , a comparison result storage unit 34 , and a related information storage unit 35 .

[0029] The management information storage unit 31 stores the management information 11 shown in Fig. 1, which includes the contents of the management items of the management information created by the development department, for example, user information and the ID of the managed object used by the user. The user information stored in the management information storage unit 31 includes the user's name, email address, affiliation, manager, and expense payer.

[0030] The reference data storage unit 32 stores the reference data 13 shown in FIG. 1, which includes the management items and contents of the management information that serves as the standard created by the human resources department for human resources management. The management information that serves as the standard is identified, for example, by the ID of the product development project in which the user is involved or the ID of the item to be managed. The user information stored in the management information storage unit 31 is the user's name, email address, affiliation, and phone number. Note that other items may not be required as long as there is information that can uniquely identify the user, such as an email address. Note that the reference data 13 stored in the reference data storage unit 32 is not displayed on the correction execution confirmation screen 300 illustrated in FIG. 5, and is concealed so that the administrator cannot see it.

[0031] The correction information storage unit 33 records correction information proposed to the manager who uses the information comparison device 18, and history information of corrections selected by the manager. For example, the correction information storage unit 33 stores the IDs of the product development projects and managed objects in which the manager participates, the selection results regarding whether or not corrections should be made, and the items and contents of the managed objects in association with each other.

[0032] The comparison result storage unit 34 stores the comparison result between the contents of the management items of the management information 11 and the contents of the reference data in the check by the information comparison function 20. The comparison result storage unit 34 is shared with other information comparison devices 18 for management information, for example, via a predetermined network. In addition, the information comparison device 18 may also be able to access the comparison result storage units 34 provided in the other information comparison devices 18 via the predetermined network.

[0033] The related information storage unit 35 records location information such as the user's place of business, the user's attendance at meetings, and the network access status, which are referenced in determining whether or not the contents of the management items need to be corrected.

[0034] <Information comparison function> The information comparison function 20 executes the main processing of the information comparison device 18 shown in Fig. 1. The information comparison function 20 includes a comparison processing unit 21 and a comparison result display processing unit 26.

[0035] The comparison processing unit 21 executes a process for checking management information of the managed object. The comparison processing unit 21 includes a managed object reading processing unit 22, a managed object management information extraction processing unit 23, a reference data acquisition processing unit 24, and a judgment processing unit 25.

[0036] The managed object reading processor 22 reads the management information of the managed object to be compared from the management information storage unit 31 .

[0037] The management information extraction processing unit 23 for the managed object extracts the items and contents of the managed object to be compared that are read from the management information storage unit 31 by the management object reading processing unit 22 .

[0038] The reference data acquisition processing unit 24 acquires the contents of the reference management items associated with the items of the management information to be compared from the reference data storage unit 32. The acquired management items are associated with the IDs of the product development projects in which the product is involved and the managed items.

[0039] The determination processing unit 25 compares the contents of the management items extracted by the management information extraction processing unit 23 for the management items of the management object to be confirmed with the contents of the reference management items acquired by the reference data acquisition processing unit 24. If the contents of the management items of the management object match the contents of the reference management items, the determination processing unit 25 determines the comparison result as "matching", and if the contents of the management items do not match the contents of the reference management items, the determination processing unit 25 determines the comparison result as "not matching". The match of the contents of the management items may be determined, for example, by determining whether the contents of other management items match when information that can uniquely identify a user (e.g., an email address) matches data between the two.

[0040] The comparison result is stored in the judgment processing unit 25 in the comparison result storage unit 34. Here, it is preferable that the ID of the managed object used in the judgment of "non-conformity" is associated with the management item and content of the management information judged to be "non-conformity." Furthermore, it is preferable that the comparison result is associated with other managed objects and other information comparison devices 18 via the network.

[0041] The comparison result display processing unit 26 outputs display data for displaying the comparison result by the judgment processing unit 25, for example, as the judgment result 16 in FIG.

[0042] <Correction / Suggestion Function> The correction / suggestion function 40 proposes and corrects the contents of the management items of the management object. The correction / suggestion function 40 includes an information selection processing unit 47 and a correction / suggestion processing unit 41.

[0043] The information selection processing unit 47 acquires the comparison results of the target managed object from the comparison result storage unit 34. As shown in Fig. 2, the information selection processing unit 47 acquires, via a predetermined network, other comparison result storage units 34, location information 49 such as an office or laboratory as information on the managed person associated with the managed object, meeting information 50 such as information on participants in regular meetings, and network access information 51 such as access to a management site unique to each department, via a network 48. The information selection processing unit 47 may also acquire comparison results generated by other information comparison devices from the comparison result storage units 34A of other managed objects, and share the comparison results between the information comparison devices.

[0044] The correction / proposal processing unit 41 includes a management object selection processing unit 42 , a reference data information acquisition processing unit 43 , a non-conforming item identifying unit 44 , a correction / proposal determining unit 45 , and a correction executing unit 46 .

[0045] The management object selection processing unit 42 recognizes the ID of the management object of the non-conformity result acquired by the information selection processing unit 47.

[0046] The reference data information acquisition processing unit 43 identifies the management contents of the reference data corresponding to the ID of the non-conforming management object recognized by the management object selection processing unit 42.

[0047] The non-conforming item identifying unit 44 identifies the contents of the management item corresponding to the ID of the management object of the non-conforming result recognized by the management object selection processing unit 42.

[0048] The management object selection processing unit 42, the reference data information acquisition processing unit 43, and the non-conformity item identifying unit 44 may execute processing for each of the multiple non-conformity results acquired by the information selection processing unit 47.

[0049] The correction / proposal determination unit 45 determines whether the contents of the management items of the management object identified by the reference data information acquisition processing unit 43 should be corrected to the contents of the management items identified by the nonconformity item identification unit 44. For example, the correction / proposal determination unit 45 may weight the multiple comparison results identified by the nonconformity item identification unit 44, location information 49 such as an office or laboratory, meeting information 50 such as information on participants in regular meetings, and network access information 51 such as access to each department's own management site, perform multivariate analysis on the weighted values, and make a determination based on the analysis results. When the correction / proposal determination unit 45 determines that the management contents of the reference data of the management information should be corrected, it may generate management contents that are the correction proposal (hereinafter referred to as "correction proposal management contents").

[0050] The correction execution unit 46 corrects the contents of the management object item serving as the reference data in the reference data storage unit 32 to the contents of the correction proposal management item. The correction execution unit 46 may inquire of the user as to whether or not it is OK to correct the contents of the management item serving as the reference to the correction proposal management contents (see FIG. 5).

[0051] <Processing flow> FIG. 3 is a flowchart showing an example of processing executed by an information comparison device according to an embodiment of the present invention.

[0052] In the explanation of Fig. 3, for example, for "affiliation", which is a management item of user information of a management object called Tool X, the affiliation of the management item is managed as "Department A" in the affiliation data of the personnel database that is the initial standard. In contrast, a specific example where "affiliation" is input as "Department B" in a specific management unit of a certain project will be explained as appropriate.

[0053] First, the process executed by the information comparison function 20 will be described.

[0054] The management target reading processor 22 reads data of the management target ID from the management information storage unit 31 (101).

[0055] The management information extraction processing unit 23 searches for users who are using the managed objects from the management information of the managed objects, and extracts the contents of the managed object items (e.g., user ID, name, and the contents of the management item "affiliation" "Department B") for the users who are using the managed objects found from the data read in step 101 (102).

[0056] The reference data acquisition processing unit 24 acquires the contents of the management item serving as a reference (for example, the contents of the management item "affiliation" such as "Department A") from the reference data storage unit 32 (103).

[0057] The judgment processing unit 25 judges whether the contents of the management items extracted in step 102 match with the contents of the management items of the reference data acquired in step 103, and displays the comparison result on the comparison result display unit 26 (104). The match of the contents of the management items may be judged, for example, by judging whether the contents of other management items match for data in which uniquely identifiable information of the user (e.g., email address) matches between the two. If the contents of the parameters extracted in step 102 match with the contents of the reference management items acquired in step 103 (104: OK), this process ends.

[0058] On the other hand, if the contents of the management item extracted in step 102 do not match the contents of the reference management item acquired in step 103 (104: NG), the process proceeds to step 105. For example, as described above, if the affiliation information extracted in step 102 is "Division B" and the affiliation information acquired in step 103 is "Division A," the judgment processing unit 25 judges that the two pieces of affiliation information do not match and do not match.

[0059] Then, the judgment processing unit 25 stores the non-conformity results in the comparison result storage unit 34 (105). The non-conformity results are a list of email addresses for which the contents of the management items for each tool ID do not match. Through the above process, multiple non-conformity results are stored in the comparison result storage unit 34. For example, non-conformity results that are determined to not match (ID of the managed object, management item "affiliation", and its contents "Part B") are stored in the comparison result storage unit 34.

[0060] Next, the process executed by the correction / suggestion function 40 will be described.

[0061] The information selection processing unit 47 acquires the non-conformity result related to the target management object, the location information 49, the meeting information 50, and the network access information 51 from the comparison result storage unit 34 (106). For example, as shown in FIG. 4, the information selection processing unit 47 executes the following process. The information selection processing unit 47 selects the judgment result of the tool X from the correction information storage unit 33 based on the ID of the management object. For example, the judgment result for the tool Y whose management information does not overlap is not referenced. Next, the information selection processing unit 47 selects a plurality of comparison results identified by the non-conformity item identification unit 44, for example, the location information 49 of the office 1F or the laboratory A building, the meeting information 50 such as the participant information of the B department regular meeting, and the network access information 51 such as the access to the management site unique to each department. The location information 49 is preferably the seating chart managed by the organization as well as the entrance and exit information of employees. The usage status of the office, the area of ​​the factory, etc. of the employee is strongly related to the affiliation information and contact information of the organization. For example, if a department A is located on the first floor of an office building and a department B is located on the second floor of the office building, and a user who uses a managed object frequently enters and leaves the second floor of the office building, the user may be weighted so that the user is likely to belong to department B. The meeting information 50 may refer to the address of the email informing the meeting as well as the participation information of the meeting (e.g., online meeting). Since information on meetings held on a department or project basis (e.g., department A regular meeting or project A regular meeting) is strongly related to affiliation, the user may be weighted so that the user is likely to belong to a department to which the meeting is related, depending on the participation status of the meeting. The network access information 51 may be weighted so that the user is likely to belong to a department to which the portal site is related, depending on, for example, the access frequency and usage time of a portal site managed on an organizational or affiliation basis. In addition, these pieces of information may be concealed by replacing the area and meeting names with identifiers instead of using the names as they are.

[0062] The management object selection processing unit 42 recognizes the ID of the management object of the non-conformity result acquired in step 106. Then, the reference data information acquisition processing unit 43 identifies the content of the management item that is the reference corresponding to the rule ID of the recognized non-conformity result. Then, the non-conformity item identification unit 44 identifies the content of the management item of the ID of the management object of the recognized non-conformity result (107). For example, the management object selection processing unit 42 acquires a weighted value of the judgment result selected in step 106, the location information 49, the meeting information 50, and the network access information 51.

[0063] The correction / proposal determination unit 45 performs an analysis (e.g., a multivariate analysis) to determine whether the content of the reference management item identified by the reference data information acquisition processing unit 43 should be corrected to the content of the management item identified by the nonconformity item identification unit 44 (i.e., whether correction is necessary) (108). For example, the correction / proposal determination unit 45 performs a multivariate analysis on the multiple nonconformity results identified by the nonconformity item identification unit 44, the weighted location information 49, the weighted meeting information 50, and the weighted network access information 51, and determines that the content of the management item "affiliation" is highly likely to be "B Department". In other words, as a result of analyzing the multiple nonconformity results and the related database, the correction / proposal determination unit 45 infers that it is appropriate to correct the content of the management item "affiliation" to "B Department" in the managed object.

[0064] As a specific example of the multivariate analysis in step 108, an example of checking the latest department and group to which Engineer A, identified by an email address, belongs will be described with reference to FIG.

[0065] When checking the management information of tool A (for example, affiliation), it is highly likely that Engineer A, who is managed in tool B, which is closely related to tool A, will be managed under the same affiliation as tool A. If Engineer A is recorded as the Software Engineering Department in tool B, it is reasonable to manage Engineer A as the Software Engineering Department in tool A as well. Also, even if Engineer A is recorded as being in the General Affairs Department in tool C, which is not related to tool A, it will be determined that this is not valid data (points = 0).

[0066] The location information 49 is, for example, the number of times an engineer A enters and leaves an office, and the number of times the engineer A enters and leaves the office using his ID card is counted, for example, on a monthly basis. The office that Engineer A enters and leaves is mainly used by Group Y of Design Department X. The number of times the engineer enters and leaves the office is compared with a predetermined threshold value to determine points. For example, if the number of times the engineer enters and leaves the office is less than 20 times, the point is set to 0, and if the number of times the engineer enters and leaves the office is between 21 and 40 times, the point is set to 1.

[0067] The number of times entering and exiting the laboratory using location information will be counted in the same way as the office, and points will be awarded.

[0068] Meeting information 50 is, for example, information on participation in departmental meetings, project meetings, etc., and the attendance rate for meetings that each department is required to attend is determined using a specified threshold, and if the attendance rate is below the specified threshold, the point is set to 0, and if the attendance rate is above the specified threshold, the point is set to 1.

[0069] For network information, points can be determined based on the number of monthly accesses to the X Design Department's internal portal site or the company's internal tool support site.

[0070] The points determined by these methods are added up, and if the total point amount is less than a predetermined threshold, it is determined that Engineer A is unlikely to belong to Group Y of Design Department X, and if the total point amount is equal to or greater than the predetermined threshold, it is determined that Engineer A is likely to belong to Group Y of Design Department X.

[0071] For example, if the reference data 13 regarding Engineer A records that Engineer A belongs to Group Z of Design Department X, and in the above judgment, it is determined that Engineer A is highly likely to belong to Group Y of Design Department X, the information comparison device proposes to modify the information regarding Engineer A's affiliation from Group Z of Design Department X to Group Y of Design Department X.

[0072] Next, the correction / proposal determination unit 45 determines whether or not correction is necessary based on the result of the analysis in step 108 (109). For example, if the contents of the management items inferred in step 108 do not match the contents of the management items in management information 11, it determines that correction of management information 11 is necessary. If it is determined that correction is not necessary (109: NO), this process ends.

[0073] On the other hand, if it is determined that correction is necessary (109: YES), the correction / proposal determination unit 45 generates the contents of the management item of a correction proposal to be proposed to the administrator (110). For example, since the content of the management item "Part B" inferred in step 108 does not match the content of the management item "Part A" of the management information 11, it is determined that correction of the management information 11 is necessary (109: YES), and the processing of step 110 is executed. Then, in step 110, the correction / proposal determination unit 45 generates correction information to be proposed to the administrator, including the correction proposal "Part B" for the management item "affiliation" of the user who uses the managed object.

[0074] The correction execution unit 46 inquires of the administrator using the information comparison device 18 whether or not to correct the contents of the reference management item identified by the reference data information acquisition processing unit 43 to the contents of the management item of the proposed correction (i.e., whether or not to carry out correction) (111). For example, in step 111, the correction execution unit 46 displays a correction execution confirmation screen 300 as exemplified in Fig. 5. The correction execution confirmation screen 300 is a screen for inquiring of the administrator whether or not to correct the contents "Part A" of the management item "Belonging" of the user who is using the managed object to the proposed correction "Part B".

[0075] The correction execution confirmation screen 300 includes information 301 of the managed object and management item, information 302 indicating the management item "Part A" and the correction proposal "Part B" that are the basis for the "affiliation" of the management item, a check box 305 for selecting whether or not to make the correction, a "Execute correction" button 303 for the administrator to instruct to make the correction, and a "Cancel" button 304 for the administrator to instruct not to make the correction. The above-mentioned information 301 and 302 may also be configured to display multiple pieces of information simultaneously so that the items to be corrected can be selected in the check box 305. If multiple check boxes for selecting whether or not to make the correction are selected, the selected pieces of information may be corrected simultaneously.

[0076] In FIG. 5, the suggested correction is to set the user to "no affiliation" instead of a specific department name if the user's affiliation cannot be estimated.

[0077] Furthermore, in FIG. 5, by operating the “Details” button 306, location information such as the user's place of work, the user's attendance status at meetings, and the network access status, which were referenced in determining whether or not the contents of the management items need to be modified, may be obtained from the related information storage unit 35 and displayed.

[0078] If the administrator decides not to modify the information (111: NO), this process ends.

[0079] On the other hand, if the manager decides to make a correction (111: YES), the correction execution unit 46 corrects the reference management information (112). That is, the correction execution unit 46 corrects the content of the reference management item stored in the reference data storage unit 32 and identified by the reference data information acquisition processing unit 43 to the content of the management item of the correction proposal. The correction execution unit 46 also notifies the manager of the managed object of the correction content. For example, the correction execution unit 46 overwrites the content information "Part A" of the management item "Belonging" in the reference data storage unit 32 with the correction proposal "Part B", and corrects it. As a result, the corrected content of the management item "Part B" is used as the content of the management item in the judgment processing of the judgment processing unit 25 in 104 thereafter.

[0080] The correction executing unit 46 stores information indicating the correction content made in step 112 as history in the correction information storage unit 33 (113). Then, the process returns to step 103 to continue. For example, the correction of the reference data "Division A" of "affiliation" to the proposed correction "Division B" is stored in the correction information storage unit 33.

[0081] As described above, according to the embodiment of the present invention, it is possible to propose management item contents suitable for each management object, thereby improving the accuracy of judgment. In addition, it is possible to reduce the effort required to check management information, and to easily modify management information.

[0082] The present invention is not limited to the above-described embodiments, and includes various modified examples and equivalent configurations within the spirit of the appended claims. For example, the above-described embodiments have been described in detail to clearly explain the present invention, and the present invention is not necessarily limited to having all of the configurations described. Furthermore, a part of the configuration of one embodiment may be replaced with a configuration of another embodiment. Furthermore, a configuration of another embodiment may be added to a configuration of one embodiment. Furthermore, a part of the configuration of each embodiment may be added, deleted, or replaced with another configuration.

[0083] In addition, each of the above-mentioned configurations, functions, processing units, processing means, etc. may be realized in hardware, for example by designing some or all of them as an integrated circuit, or may be realized in software by a processor interpreting and executing a program that realizes each function.

[0084] Information such as programs, tables, and files that realize each function can be stored in a storage device such as a memory, a hard disk, or an SSD (Solid State Drive), or in a recording medium such as an IC card, an SD card, or a DVD.

[0085] In addition, the control lines and information lines shown are those considered necessary for the explanation, and do not necessarily show all the control lines and information lines necessary for implementation. In reality, it can be considered that almost all components are connected to each other. [Explanation of symbols]
