[0010] The present invention will be described below based on the illustrated embodiment. The following description and drawings are examples for explaining the present invention, and appropriate omissions and simplifications are made for clarity of explanation. The present invention can be implemented in various other forms. Unless otherwise specified, each component may be singular or plural. In the following description, the same components are given the same symbols. Their names and functions are also the same. Therefore, detailed descriptions thereof will not be repeated.

[0011] <Summary> The accounting processing system according to the present disclosure will be described below. The accounting processing system according to the present disclosure is a system for providing accounting processing services to users such as companies and individual business owners. The accounting processing performed by companies and individual business owners is to manage transactions of deposits and withdrawals such as purchases, sales, and borrowings, and the transactions are recorded (booked) in ledgers (journal entries, general ledger), a trial balance is prepared as a settlement processing at a predetermined accounting period, and a profit and loss statement and balance sheet, which are financial statements, are prepared. In addition, based on the results of the settlement processing, tax return processing is also performed to prepare tax returns for corporate tax, business tax, consumption tax, etc. The accounting processing system according to the present disclosure is, for example, a computer system that accepts input of deposit and withdrawal transactions such as purchases and sales, records them in ledgers, prepares trial balances and financial statements, and supports tax return processing. In addition, the accounting processing system according to the present disclosure is, for example, a system provided by a cloud server or the like as a Web service, so-called SaaS (Software as a Service).

[0012] The accounting processing system according to the present disclosure is a system for acquiring electronic detail data related to the settlement of a transaction, creating invoice data based on a predetermined format, and appropriately storing the invoice data. The accounting processing system according to the present disclosure is a system for creating and appropriately storing accounting data for input tax credits related to a transaction.

[0013] By the way, when a business operator purchases goods for the purpose of procurement and makes payments, or when they use various services as expenses for business purposes and make payments, they are required to pay consumption tax to the payee (business partner) in the same way as for normal payments. However, for consumption tax paid for business purposes as purchases or expenses, if certain requirements are met, it is possible to receive input tax credit, which allows the consumption tax paid to be deducted from the consumption tax paid on sales.

[0014] In order to receive such input tax credit, the so-called invoice system, known as the qualified invoice storage method, has been decided to be introduced in the home country. The invoice system is a system in which, in order to receive input tax credit for consumption tax, if the invoice is not issued by a qualified invoice recognized as an invoice business, the input tax credit for consumption tax is not allowed, and in order to receive input tax credit for consumption tax, the business must register as an invoice business. A qualified invoice is an invoice that meets the requirements, such as accurately indicating the consumption tax applied to the invoice amount for each applicable tax rate and indicating the registration number given when registering as an invoice business. It is necessary to check whether the business partner is an invoice business, but it is expected to be very time-consuming to check this every time a payment is made. In addition, Peppol (an international standard in XML format) has been prescribed as a standard for transmitting invoice data that has been digitized from such invoices to the other party of the transaction.

[0015] In addition, electronic statement data shared with financial institutions, credit card companies, etc. when synchronizing with accounting data can be used to ensure accounting accuracy and speed up monthly settlement. However, this type of electronic statement data does not include tax rates, tax amounts, tax establishment numbers, etc. In addition, because this type of electronic statement data is not of a nature to be delivered to trading partners, it cannot be used to create invoices that comply with the invoice system.

[0016] Therefore, the accounting processing system according to the present disclosure, for example, in a platform for supporting transactions between businesses, accepts input of transaction data regarding buying and selling of purchases, sales, etc., and obtains electronic statement data regarding the settlement of the transaction. The accounting processing system according to the present disclosure also creates invoice data based on a predetermined format from the transaction data and electronic statement data, and creates accounting data for input tax deduction for the transaction. The created invoice data and accounting data are then stored and saved.

[0017] The above configuration makes it possible to store and properly save invoice data and ledger data, which not only makes it possible to comply with the invoice system but also improves business efficiency.

[0018] <Embodiment 1> The following is a description of the transaction processing system 1. In the following description, for example, when the terminal device 10 accesses the server 20, the server 20 responds with information for generating a screen on the terminal device 10.

[0044] The storage unit 202 is composed of, for example, a memory 25 and a storage 26, and stores data and programs used by the server 20. The storage unit 202 stores a business entity database 2021, a transaction database 2022, an accounting database 2023, and the like.

[0045] The business database 2021 is a database for holding data (business data) on businesses that are business partners in the accounting processing system 1, specifically, information on businesses such as their names, and information indicating whether or not they are invoice businesses. Details will be described later.

[0046] The transaction database 2022 is a database for holding data (transaction data) on transactions such as purchases of various goods and sales, various payments, etc., which are subject to management in the accounting processing system 1, specifically information on deposits and withdrawals at business operators. Details will be described later.

[0047] The accounting database 2023 is a database for holding accounting information related to transactions, specifically, journal entry information related to companies, sole proprietorships, etc., which is managed by the accounting processing system 1. Details will be described later.

[0048] The control unit 203 performs functions indicated in various modules, such as a receiving control module 2031, a transmitting control module 2032, a transaction data reception module 2033, an electronic detail data acquisition module 2034, a transaction data list presentation module 2035, an electronic detail data presentation module 2036, an invoice data creation module 2037, a ledger data creation module 2038, and a created data presentation module 2039, by the processor 29 of the server 20 performing processing in accordance with the program.

[0049] The reception control module 2031 controls the process in which the server 20 receives a signal from an external device in accordance with a communication protocol.

[0050] The transmission control module 2032 controls the process in which the server 20 transmits signals to external devices in accordance with a communication protocol.

[0051] Transaction data reception module 2033 controls the process of receiving, from a business that is a user, input of transaction data relating to transactions with other businesses stored in business database 2021. Transaction data reception module 2033 receives the input of transaction data, for example, in response to a user operating terminal device 10 to input transaction data. At this time, terminal device 10 transmits the received transaction data to server 20 via transmission / reception unit 172, and therefore transaction data reception module 2033 receives the transaction data via communication unit 201.

[0052] The transaction data accepted by the transaction data acceptance module 2033 is, for example, data on transactions between a user of the accounting system 1 and other business operators, specifically data on sales related to the purchase and sale of various items, and various payments, and is acquired together with information identifying the other party to the transaction (such as identification information assigned to each business partner). The transaction data also includes, for example, the transaction date, transaction details (including a description of the item being subject to a reduced tax rate), total amount for each tax rate, tax rate, consumption tax amount, and name or title of the recipient. The transaction data accepted by the transaction data acceptance module 2033 may be data automatically acquired by reading supporting data (image data of receipts, etc.) using OCR processing.

[0053] Furthermore, the transaction data receiving module 2033 stores the received transaction data in the transaction database 2022 of the storage unit 202 .

[0054] The electronic statement data acquisition module 2034 controls the process of acquiring electronic statement data on the settlement of a transaction related to the transaction data accepted by the transaction data acceptance module 2033. The electronic statement data acquired by the electronic statement data acquisition module 2034 is, for example, data linked to the accounting data from a financial institution, a credit card company, etc. when synchronizing with the accounting data, and includes information on the settlement (deposit / withdrawal) date, information indicating the deposit or withdrawal, and the transaction amount. For example, with the consent of a user of the accounting processing system 1, the electronic statement data acquisition module 2034 refers to the transaction database 2022, accesses the servers of the financial institution and the credit card company, and acquires the account information of the financial institution held by the user and the usage information of the credit card used by the user. The process of acquiring electronic statement data by the electronic statement data acquisition module 2034 may be a pull-type information acquisition process that accesses the servers of the financial institution and the credit card company as described above, or may be a push-type information acquisition process that accepts information transmission from the servers of the financial institution and the credit card company.

[0055] The electronic statement data acquired by the electronic statement data acquisition module 2034 is useful for ensuring accounting accuracy and speeding up monthly settlement, but such electronic statement data does not include tax rates, tax amounts, tax establishment numbers, etc.

[0056] Furthermore, the electronic statement data acquisition module 2034 controls the process of linking the acquired electronic statement data to transaction data related to the transaction accepted by the transaction data acceptance module 2033 and storing it in the transaction database 2022. The electronic statement data acquisition module 2034 identifies the transaction data by referring to the transaction data stored in the transaction database 2022 from information identifying the other party to the transaction and the transaction details (data of the remittance requester, summary, name of the store where the credit card was used, amount, etc.) contained in the acquired electronic statement data, and associates the electronic statement data with the transaction data.

[0057] The transaction data list presentation module 2035 controls the process of presenting a list of transaction data relating to a user, who is a business operator. The transaction data list presentation module 2035 references the transaction database 2022, and for example, references the user information 161 of the terminal device 10 used when logging in to the accounting processing system 1, to identify and extract transaction data relating to the user, and presents a list of the transaction data to the user.

[0058] The transaction data list presentation module 2035 presents a list of transaction data, for example, in response to a user operating the terminal device 10. At this time, the transaction data list presentation module 2035 transmits the extracted transaction data via the communication unit 201 to the terminal device 10 and displays it on the display 150 to present it to the user.

[0059] The electronic statement data presentation module 2036 controls a process of accepting, from the user, the selection of one or more transaction data from the list of transaction data presented by the transaction data list presentation module 2035. The electronic statement data presentation module 2036 accepts the selection of transaction data in response to, for example, the user operating the terminal device 10 to input the selection of one or more transaction data from the presented transaction data. At this time, the terminal device 10 transmits the accepted selection information of the transaction data to the server 20 via the transmitting / receiving unit 172, and the electronic statement data presentation module 2036 accepts the selection information of the transaction data via the communication unit 201.

[0060] Further, the electronic detail data presentation module 2036 controls a process of presenting to a user electronic detail data linked to transaction data selected by the user. The electronic detail data presentation module 2036 refers to the transaction database 2022, for example, identifies and extracts electronic detail data stored in the transaction database 2022 linked to the transaction data selected by the user, and presents the electronic detail data to the user. At this time, if there are multiple extracted electronic detail data, they are presented, for example, as a list.

[0061] The electronic statement data presentation module 2036 presents the electronic statement data, for example, in response to the user operating the terminal device 10. At this time, the electronic statement data presentation module 2036 transmits the extracted electronic statement data via the communication unit 201 to the terminal device 10 and displays it on the display 150 to present it to the user.

[0062] The invoice data creation module 2037 controls a process of creating invoice data based on a predetermined format for a transaction from the transaction data selected by the user from the transaction data presented by the transaction data list presentation module 2035 and the electronic detail data linked to the transaction data. The invoice data creation module 2037 acquires information such as the transaction date, transaction details (including a description that the item is subject to a reduced tax rate), total amount for each tax rate, tax rate, consumption tax amount, and recipient's name or title from the transaction data selected by the user and the electronic detail data linked to the transaction data extracted by the electronic detail data presentation module 2036. The invoice data creation module 2037 also acquires information on the taxable business name and registration number that are registered in advance in the business database 2021 (registered with the National Tax Agency). The invoice data creation module 2037 then creates invoice data from the acquired information.

[0063] The invoice data created by the invoice data creation module 2037 includes the name of the taxable business (registered with the National Tax Agency), the registration number, the transaction date, the transaction details (including a description of the item being subject to a reduced tax rate), the total amount for each tax rate, the tax rate, the amount of consumption tax, the name or title of the recipient, etc. The invoice data created by the invoice data creation module 2037 is based on a specified format, and specifically, is billing data that complies with a format called Peppol (an international standard for XML format).

[0064] The invoice data creation module 2037 stores and preserves the created invoice data in a predetermined area (not shown) of the storage unit 202.

[0065] The ledger data creation module 2038 controls the process of creating ledger data for input tax credit for a transaction from the transaction data selected by the user from the transaction data presented by the transaction data list presentation module 2035 and the electronic statement data linked to the transaction data. The ledger data creation module 2038 acquires information such as the transaction date, transaction details (including a description that the item is subject to a reduced tax rate), total amount for each tax rate, tax rate, consumption tax amount, and recipient's name or title from the transaction data selected by the user and the electronic statement data linked to the transaction data extracted by the electronic statement data presentation module 2036. The ledger data creation module 2038 also acquires information on the taxable business name and registration number that are registered in advance in the business database 2021 (registered with the National Tax Agency). The ledger data creation module 2038 then creates ledger data from the acquired information.

[0066] The ledger data created by the ledger data creation module 2038 includes the name of the taxable business (registered with the National Tax Agency), the registration number, the transaction date, the transaction details (including the description of the item being subject to a reduced tax rate), the total amount for each tax rate, the tax rate, the amount of consumption tax, the name or title of the recipient, etc. The ledger data created by the ledger data creation module 2038 is subject to certain requirements, and is required to include the following information. Name of taxable purchase party - Date of taxable purchase - Details of assets or services related to taxable purchases - Amount of payment for taxable purchases

[0067] The ledger data creation module 2038 stores and preserves the created ledger data in a predetermined area (not shown) of the storage unit 202.

[0068] The created data presentation module 2039 controls the process of presenting to the user the invoice data created by the invoice data creation module 2037.

[0098] <3 operations> The data registration process and data storage process performed by the transaction processing system 1 in embodiment 1 will be described below with reference to FIGS.

[0099] FIG. 7 is a flow chart showing an example of the flow of data registration processing by the transaction processing system 1.

[0100] In step S121, the transaction data reception module 2033 of the server 20 receives, from the user (business operator), input of transaction data relating to transactions with other businesses stored in the business operator database 2021. The transaction data is, for example, data on transactions between the user of the accounting processing system 1 and other businesses, specifically data on purchases and sales of various goods and the like, various payments, and the like.

[0101] In step S122, the electronic detail data acquisition module 2034 of the server 20 acquires electronic detail data on the settlement of the transaction related to the transaction data accepted in step S121 (stored in the transaction database 2022).

[0102] In step S123, the electronic statement data acquisition module 2034 of the server 20 associates the electronic statement data acquired in step S122 with the transaction data accepted in step S121, and stores them in the transaction database 2022.

[0103] As described above, accounting processing system 1 accepts input of transaction data, obtains electronic detail data related to the settlement of the transaction related to the transaction data, and stores the electronic detail data linked to the transaction data. This makes it possible to link the transaction data with the electronic detail data.

[0104] FIG. 8 is a flow chart showing an example of the flow of data storage processing performed by the transaction processing system 1.

[0105] In step S221, the transaction data list presentation module 2035 of the server 20 presents a list of transaction data related to the user, who is a business operator, to the user in response to the user's operation of the terminal device 10. In step S221, the list of transaction data is transmitted to the terminal device 10 and presented to the user by displaying it on the display 150. Note that step S221 is not a required configuration, and the list of transaction data may not be presented to the user.

[0106] In step S222, the electronic statement data presentation module 2036 of the server 20 accepts the selection of one or more transaction data from the list of transaction data presented in step S221 by the user operating the terminal device 10. Note that step S222 is not a required configuration, and the configuration may be such that the user is not prompted to select from the list of transaction data.

[0107] In step S223, the electronic statement data presentation module 2036 of the server 20 presents to the user electronic statement data linked to the transaction data (stored in the transaction database 2022) selected by the user in step S222. In step S223, the corresponding electronic statement data is transmitted to the terminal device 10 and displayed on the display 150 for presentation to the user.

[0108] In step S224, the invoice data creation module 2037 of the server 20 creates invoice data for the transaction based on a prescribed format from the transaction data selected by the user in step S222 and the electronic statement data linked to the transaction data. The invoice data created in step S224 is data including the taxable business name (registered with the National Tax Agency), registration number, transaction date, transaction details (including a description of the item being subject to a reduced tax rate), total amount for each tax rate, tax rate, consumption tax amount, recipient's name or title, etc., and is based on a prescribed format.

[0109] In step S225, the accounting data creation module 2038 of the server 20 creates accounting data for input tax credit for the transaction from the transaction data selected by the user in step S222 and the electronic statement data linked to the transaction data. The accounting data created in step S225 is data including the taxable business name (registered with the National Tax Agency), registration number, transaction date, transaction details (including a description of the item being subject to a reduced tax rate), total amount for each tax rate, tax rate, consumption tax amount, recipient's name or title, etc., and is subject to predetermined requirements.

[0110] As described above, the accounting processing system 1 presents a list of transaction data, and when it accepts the selection of one or more transaction data from the list, it presents electronic detail data linked to the relevant transaction data. It also creates invoice data for the transaction based on a specified format from the relevant transaction data and the electronic detail data linked to the transaction data, and creates accounting data for input tax deduction for the transaction. This makes it possible to store and appropriately save invoice data and accounting data.

[0111] <4 Screen example> An example of an invoice data screen displayed by the accounting processing system 1 will be described below with reference to FIG.

[0112] Fig. 9 is a diagram showing an example of a screen of invoice data displayed on the terminal device 10. The example of the screen in Fig. 9 shows an example of a screen in a state where the invoice data created by the invoice data creation module 2037 is transmitted to the terminal device 10 by the created data presentation module 2039 and displayed on the display 150.

[0113] As shown in Fig. 9, a transaction data display screen 1501a is displayed on the display 150 of the terminal device 10. In the example shown in Fig. 9, the transaction data display screen 1501a is provided with a detail display tab 1501b, a transaction display tab 1501c, and an invoice display tab 1501d, and is configured so that desired information can be displayed by selecting each of the tabs 1501b to 1501d.

[0114] In the example shown in Fig. 9, the invoice display tab 1501d is selected, and invoice (qualified invoice) data is displayed. The invoice (qualified invoice) data displayed on the display 150 includes transaction data 1501e relating to the transaction, transaction entity data 1501f relating to the transaction, and taxable person data 1501g relating to the taxable person. The taxable person data 1501g displays the name of the taxable person that has been registered in advance (registered with the National Tax Agency) and the registration number of the taxable person. As a result, data that meets the requirements for invoice data is displayed, making it possible to know at a glance that this is the case.

[0115] <Summary> As described above, according to this embodiment, for example, a platform for supporting transactions between businesses accepts input of transaction data regarding buying and selling such as purchases and sales, and obtains electronic detail data regarding the settlement of the transaction. Also, from the transaction data and electronic detail data, invoice data based on a prescribed format is created, and ledger data for input tax credits regarding the transaction is created. The created invoice data and ledger data are then stored and saved. This makes it possible to store and appropriately save invoice data and ledger data. This makes it possible to comply with the invoice system and also improves business efficiency.
