[Modes for carrying out the invention]

[0009] The following describes embodiments of the information processing apparatus, information processing method, and program of the present invention with reference to the drawings. The various devices, servers, and other devices described below that provide or process information to users may be implemented by a distributed group of devices, and the operators of each device may be different. Furthermore, the owner of the hardware of the devices (the provider of the cloud server) and the operator that actually operates them may also be different.

[0010] [Information Processing Systems] Figure 1 shows an example of the configuration of an information processing system 10. The information processing system 10 includes, for example, an information processing device 100, a personnel information management device 200, an account management device 300, and an accounting information management device 400. These devices communicate with each other, for example, via a network NW. The network NW includes, for example, the Internet, a LAN (Local Area Network), a wireless base station, and provider equipment.

[0011] Some or all of the functional configurations included in the information processing system 10 may be distributed across multiple devices in any form, or integrated into any device. For example, some or all of the functional configurations of the personnel information management device 200 may be included in the configuration of the information processing device 100, and some or all of the functional configurations of the information processing device 100 may be included in the functional configuration of the personnel information management device 200.

[0012] The personnel information management device 200 is a server that manages various information related to company employees. The personnel information management device 200 includes a storage unit 210. The storage unit 210 can be a HDD (Hard Disk Drive), a flash memory, a RAM (Random Access Memory), etc. The storage unit 210 can also be a NAS (Network Attached Storage) device accessible by the personnel information management device 200 via the network NW. Information such as personnel information 212 and transfer information 214 is stored in the storage unit 210.

[0013] The personnel information 212 is information about employees (such as the employee's name, date of birth, company, department, position, employment form, etc.). Details of the personnel information 212 will be described later. The person in charge of the personnel department in the company uses an input unit (not shown) such as a keyboard and a mouse provided in the personnel information management device 200 to input the personnel information 212. The input personnel information 212 is stored in the storage unit 210.

[0014] The transfer information 214 is information about an employee who is the subject of a personnel transfer in the company (hereinafter referred to as the transfer target) (such as transfer date, type of transfer, new company, new department, new position, and new employment form, etc.). Details of the transfer information 214 will be described later. The person in charge of the personnel department in the company uses an input unit (not shown) such as a keyboard and a mouse provided in the personnel information management device 200 to input the transfer information 214. The input transfer information 214 is stored in the storage unit 210.

[0015] Note that the person in charge of the personnel department may use a terminal device (not shown) connected to the network NW to input the personnel information 212 and the transfer information 214, and transmit the input personnel information 212 and transfer information 214 from the terminal device to the personnel information management device 200.

[0016] The information processing device 100 is, for example, a server that manages internal company petitions related to accounting, personnel, etc. Further, the information processing device 100 is also a server that generates update information for updating the account information of the person subject to transfer. For example, the information processing device 100 acquires transfer information 214, which is information regarding the person subject to transfer, from the personnel information management device 200, and generates update information 172 for updating the account information of the person subject to transfer based on the transfer information 214. Further, the information processing device 100 transmits the generated update information 172 to the account management device 300 via the network NW. The update of the account of the person subject to transfer is performed by the account management device 300. Details of the processing of the information processing device 100 will be described later.

[0017] The account management device 300 is a server that manages the account information of employees in the company. The account management device 300 includes a storage unit 310. The storage unit 310 is an HDD, flash memory, RAM, etc. The storage unit 310 may be a NAS device accessible by the account management device 300 via the network NW. Information such as account information 312 is stored in the storage unit 310. s

[0018] The account information 31m2 is information regarding the accounts of all employees (such as employee IDs and passwords). Details of the account information 312 will be described later. For example, the account management device 300 receives the update information 172 from the information processing device 100 and updates the account information 312 of the person subject to transfer in the storage unit 310. Thereby, the information processing device 100 can cause the account management device 300 to update the account information of the person subject to transfer.

[0019] [Information processing device] Figure 2 is a diagram of the information processing device 100. The information processing device 100 includes, for example, a communication unit 110, an input unit 115, an acquisition unit 120, an update information generation unit 125, an account update unit 130, a personnel list generation unit 135, an anti-social group check unit 140, an organizational chart generation unit 145, a workflow drafting unit 150, an approval route determination unit 155, an accounting information processing unit 160, and a storage unit 170. Components other than the communication unit 110, the input unit 115, and the storage unit 170 are realized, for example, by a hardware processor such as a CPU (Central Processing Unit) executing a program (software). Some or all of these components may be implemented by hardware (including circuitry) such as LSI (Large Scale Integration), ASIC (Application Specific Integrated Circuit), FPGA (Field-Programmable Gate Array), GPU (Graphics Processing Unit), or SOC (System On Chip), or by the collaboration of software and hardware. The program may be stored in advance in a storage device such as an HDD or flash memory (a storage device with a non-transient storage medium), or it may be stored in a removable storage medium such as a DVD or CD-ROM (a non-transient storage medium) and installed in the storage device when the storage medium is inserted into a drive device.

[0020] The communication unit 110 is a communication interface for connecting to a network NW. The communication unit 110 is, for example, a network interface card.

[0021] The input unit 115 is a device used by the user to input information to the information processing device 100. The input unit 115 is, for example, a keyboard or a mouse.

[0022] The storage unit 170 can be an HDD, flash memory, RAM, etc. The storage unit 170 may also be a NAS device accessible by the information processing device 100 via a network NW. The storage unit 170 stores information such as update information 172, personnel list 174, organizational chart 176, and approval information 178.

[0023] [Specific examples of various types of information] Figure 3 shows an example of the contents of personnel information 212. Personnel information 212 is information stored in the storage unit 210 of the personnel information management device 200. As shown in Figure 3, personnel information 212 includes employee ID, name, date of birth, company, department, job title, employment type, contract expiration date, and email address. Employee ID is identification information (employee identification information) for identifying the employee. Name is information indicating the employee's name. Date of birth is information indicating the employee's date of birth. Company is information indicating the name of the company to which the employee belongs. Department is information indicating the department to which the employee belongs (e.g., headquarters, department, section, etc.). Job title is information indicating the employee's job title (e.g., general manager, department head, section chief, general staff, etc.). Employment type is information indicating the employee's employment type (e.g., full-time employee, contract employee, temporary employee, outsourced employee, etc.). The contract expiration date indicates the date on which the contract of an employee whose employment status is other than that of a regular employee (contract employee, temporary employee, or outsourced employee) expires. The email address is the employee's email address.

[0024] Figure 4 shows an example of the contents of the personnel list 174. The personnel list 174 is a list of employee information within the company. As will be described in detail later, the personnel list 174 is generated by the personnel list generation unit 135. As shown in Figure 4, the personnel list 174 includes the company, department, job title, employee ID, name, employment type, contract expiration date, and email address. This information is the same as the information included in the personnel information 212 shown in Figure 3. By referring to the personnel list 174, the information processing device 100 can obtain information on all employees without querying the personnel information management device 200.

[0025] The anti-social force check unit 140 of the information processing device 100 checks whether each employee of the company belongs to an anti-social force based on the personnel list 174. For example, the information processing device 100 may be connected via a network NW to an external server (not shown) that manages information on persons belonging to anti-social forces. Alternatively, the anti-social force check unit 140 may transmit the names and birth dates of employees included in the personnel list 174 to the external server and receive check results from the external server indicating whether the employee belongs to an anti-social force. In this way, the information processing device 100 can determine whether or not there are persons belonging to anti-social forces among the employees.

[0026] Figure 5 shows an example of the contents of the organizational table 176. The organizational table 176 is a table that shows the internal structure of the organization within the company. As will be described in detail later, the organizational table 176 is generated by the organizational table generation unit 145. As shown in Figure 5, the organizational table 176 includes the company, the department (headquarters, division, section), the job title, the employee ID, and the name. This information is the same as the information contained in the personnel information 212 shown in Figure 3. By referring to the organizational table 176, the information processing device 100 can grasp the internal structure of the organization within the company without querying the personnel information management device 200.

[0027] The approval route determination unit 155 of the information processing device 100 determines the approval route for the workflow regarding internal approvals based on the organizational chart 176. Internal approvals may include, for example, approvals related to accounting operations or approvals related to contract renewals for outsourced employees. Details of the approval process using the workflow will be described later. The organizational chart generation unit 145 updates the organizational chart 176 to reflect the latest information based on the personnel change information 214. Therefore, the approval route determination unit 155 can determine the correct approval route even when employee personnel changes occur.

[0028] Figure 6 shows an example of the contents of account information 312. Account information 312 is information stored in the storage unit 310 of the account management device 300. As shown in Figure 6, account information 312 includes employee ID, password, name, date of birth, company, department, job title, employment type, and email address. Of this information, all information except the password is the same as the information included in the personnel information 212 shown in Figure 3. The password is authentication information for logging into various systems used by the company to which the employee belongs. When a new employee joins the company, the information processing device 100 may generate a password for the new employee by randomly combining uppercase letters, lowercase letters, numbers, and symbols. The password generated here is a password for the initial login and may be changed by the new employee at a later time. The information processing device 100 sends the new employee's account information, including the generated password, to the account management device 300 for registration.

[0029] Figure 7 shows an example of the contents of the transfer information 214. The transfer information 214 is information about the employee being transferred, entered by the human resources staff. As shown in Figure 7, the transfer information 214 includes the employee ID, the date of transfer, the type of transfer, the new company, the new department, the new position, and the new employment type. The employee ID is identification information used to identify the employee, similar to the employee ID included in Figure 3. The date of transfer is the date on which the employee's transfer actually takes place. The new company is information indicating the name of the company to which the employee will belong after the transfer. The new department is information indicating the department to which the employee will belong after the transfer (e.g., headquarters, department, section, etc.). The new position is information indicating the employee's position after the transfer (e.g., general manager, department head, section chief, general staff, etc.). The new employment type is information indicating the employee's employment type after the transfer (e.g., full-time employee, contract employee, temporary employee, outsourced employee, etc.).

[0030] The acquisition unit 120 of the information processing device 100 acquires transfer information 214 from the personnel information management device 200. Specifically, the acquisition unit 120 acquires transfer information 214 whose transfer date falls within a predetermined period based on the current date. For example, the predetermined period may be from the 1st of the previous month to the current date + 18 days later. To give a specific example, if the current date is April 12, 2024, the acquisition unit 120 will narrow down the acquisition of transfer information 214 to those whose transfer date falls between March 1, 2024 and April 30, 2024. For example, the acquisition unit 120 may transmit the filtering conditions to the personnel information management device 200 by controlling the communication unit 110, and acquire the filtered transfer information 214 from the personnel information management device 200.

[0031] The storage unit 170 may also store a completion list (not shown), which is a list of transferees whose account information has already been updated. The acquisition unit 120 may also compare the transfer information 214 with the completion list and exclude the information of transferees whose account information has already been updated. This prevents the account information from being updated again.

[0032] Figure 8 shows an example of the contents of update information 172. As will be explained in detail later, update information 172 is generated by the update information generation unit 125. As shown in Figure 8, update information 172 includes employee ID, password, name, date of birth, company, department, job title, employment type, and email address. Update information 172 has the same data structure as account information 312 shown in Figure 6. This is because account information 312 is rewritten based on the contents of update information 172.

[0033] The update information generation unit 125 generates update information 172 to update the account information of the employee being transferred, based on the transfer information 214 acquired by the acquisition unit 120. Specifically, the update information generation unit 125 identifies the employee ID of the employee being transferred based on the transfer information 214 and acquires the account information 312 corresponding to the identified employee ID from the account management device 300. The update information generation unit 125 also generates update information 172 by overwriting the information contained in the employee's account information 312 (company, department, position, employment type) with the information contained in the transfer information 214 (new company, new department, new position, new employment type).

[0034] The account update unit 130 causes the account management device 300 to update the account information 312 of the person subject to transfer based on the update information 172 generated by the update information generation unit 125. Specifically, the account update unit 130 transmits the update information 172 to the account management device 300 via the network NW by controlling the communication unit 110. The account management device 300 updates the account information 312 of the person subject to transfer based on the update information 172 received from the information processing device 100 and stores it in the storage unit 310. In this way, the account update unit 130 can cause the account management device 300 to update the account information 312 of the person subject to transfer.

[0035] The information processing device 100 may omit the update information generation unit 125. In this case, the personnel information management device 200 may generate the update information 172, and the information processing device 100 may obtain the update information 172 of the person subject to transfer from the personnel information management device 200 and request the account management device 300 to update the account information 312 of the person subject to transfer.

[0036] Figure 9 shows an example of the contents of the updated account information 312. As shown in Figure 9, the updated account information 312 is updated based on the update information 172 shown in Figure 8. In Figure 9, the hatched areas indicate the updated information.

[0037] In the example shown in Figure 9, the department of the employee subject to transfer, whose employee ID is "12345," has been updated from "AA Headquarters BB Department CC Section" to "AA Headquarters BB Department," and their job title has been updated from "Section Chief" to "Department Chief." This update is due to the employee's promotion.

[0038] Additionally, the department to which employee ID "12348" belongs has been updated from "EE Headquarters FF Department GG Section" to "EE Headquarters FF Department HH Section." This update is due to the employee being transferred to another department.

[0039] Additionally, the company of the employee subject to transfer, employee ID "12349," has been updated from "●● Co., Ltd." to "▲▲ Co., Ltd.," their department has been updated from "EE Headquarters FF Department HH Section" to "XX Headquarters YY Department ZZ Section," and their employment status has been updated from "Regular Employee" to "Regular Employee (Seconded)." This update is due to the employee being seconded to another company.

[0040] Furthermore, the password, company, department, position, employment type, and email address information of the employee with employee ID "12350" who is subject to transfer have been deleted. This update is due to the employee's resignation. When an employee subject to transfer resigns, their account is deactivated, making it impossible to log in to various systems using that account. In addition, when an employee subject to transfer resigns, the employee's account and related information may be completely deleted from the information processing device 100 and the personnel information management device 200, or information indicating that the employee's account has been deactivated may be added to the account information 312.

[0041] In this way, the account update unit 130, based on the update information 172, instructs the account management device 300 to invalidate the account information of the employee who has left the company. This prevents the account of a former employee from being misused.

[0042] [Flowchart for updating account information] Figure 10 is a flowchart showing an example of an account information update process performed by the information processing device 100. The information processing device 100 may automatically execute the process shown in Figure 10 at a predetermined time, or it may execute it in response to instructions from the person in charge of account updates.

[0043] First, the acquisition unit 120 acquires transfer information 214, which is information about the person subject to transfer, from the personnel information management device 200 (S101). For example, the acquisition unit 120 acquires transfer information 214 whose transfer date falls within a predetermined period based on the current date.

[0044] Next, the update information generation unit 125 generates update information 172 to update the account information of the person being transferred, based on the transfer information 214 acquired by the acquisition unit 120 (S102). For example, as described above, the update information generation unit 125 acquires the account information 312 of the person being transferred from the account management device 300, and generates update information 172 by overwriting the information contained in the account information 312 of the person being transferred (company, department, position, employment type) with the information contained in the transfer information 214 (new company, new department, new position, new employment type).

[0045] Next, the account update unit 130 causes the account management device 300 to update the account information 312 of the person subject to transfer based on the update information 172 generated by the update information generation unit 125 (S103). For example, the account update unit 130 causes the account management device 300 to update the account information 312 of the person subject to transfer by transmitting the update information 172 to the account management device 300 via the network NW. The account management device 300 stores the updated account information 312 of the person subject to transfer in the storage unit 310.

[0046] Next, the personnel list generation unit 135 generates a personnel list 174 based on the transfer information 214 acquired by the acquisition unit 120 (S104). For example, the personnel list generation unit 135 may generate the latest version of the personnel list 174 by modifying the personnel list 174 based on the transfer information 214. As mentioned above, the personnel list 174 generated here may be used by the anti-social check unit 140 for anti-social check processing (processing to determine whether or not there are any individuals belonging to anti-social forces among the employees). The generated personnel list 174 is stored in the storage unit 170.

[0047] Next, the organizational table generation unit 145 generates an organizational table 176 showing the internal structure of the organization within the company based on the personnel change information 214 acquired by the acquisition unit 120 (S105), and terminates the processing according to this flowchart. For example, the organizational table generation unit 145 may generate the latest version of the organizational table 176 by modifying the organizational table 176 based on the personnel change information 214. As mentioned above, the organizational table 176 generated here may be used by the approval route determination unit 155 for the approval route determination process (processing to determine the approval route of the workflow for internal approval requests). For example, the approval route determination unit 155 may import the generated organizational table 176 and automatically set the permissions of multiple approvers in the approval route. The generated organizational table 176 is stored in the storage unit 170. After that, the information processing device 100 terminates the processing according to this flowchart.

[0048] [Flowchart for approval process regarding internal proposals] Next, we will explain the approval process for internal approval requests executed by the information processing device 100. As mentioned above, the information processing device 100 is a server that manages internal approval requests related to accounting, personnel, etc. In the following explanation, we will use approval requests related to accounting operations and approval requests related to the renewal of contracts for outsourced employees as examples of internal approval requests.

[0049] (1) Regarding proposals for accounting operations Figure 11 is a flowchart showing an example of the approval process for an accounting request executed by the information processing device 100. The information processing device 100 may execute the process shown in Figure 11 in response to instructions from the applicant in the workflow for the accounting request.

[0050] First, the workflow drafting unit 150 drafts a workflow for an approval request related to accounting operations (S201). For example, the workflow drafting unit 150 may draft a workflow based on information entered by the workflow applicant. The workflow drafting unit 150 adds the information of the drafted workflow to the approval request information 178 stored in the storage unit 170.

[0051] Figure 12 shows an example of the contents of approval information 178. Approval information 178 is information that shows the details of the approval status of the workflow related to internal approvals. As shown in Figure 12, approval information 178 has an approval ID, subject, details, approval route, approval history, applicant's employee ID, application date, and status. The approval ID is identification information to identify the proposed approval. The subject is the subject of the approval entered by the applicant. The details are the details of the approval entered by the applicant. The approval route is information that shows the order of approval by multiple approvers. The approval history is the history of approvals by approvers and includes information that shows the date and time of approval and the content of the approval (whether it was approved or not). The applicant's employee ID is the employee ID entered by the applicant when logging into the approval system. The application date is information that shows the date the approval was submitted. The status is information indicating the approval status, and may include approved, rejected, or incomplete.

[0052] The workflow initiation unit 150 adds the information entered by the workflow applicant to the approval ID and adds it to the approval information 178. Immediately after the approval is submitted, the approval route and approval history fields are blank, and the status is "incomplete".

[0053] Next, the approval route determination unit 155 determines the approval route of the workflow based on the organizational table 176 stored in the storage unit 170 (S202). For example, in the case of an approval request related to accounting work, the approval route of the approval route may be determined to be (1) the section chief of the department to which the applicant belongs, (2) the department head of the department to which the applicant belongs, or (3) the head of the accounting department. The approval route determination unit 155 writes the determined approval route to the approval information 178.

[0054] Next, the information processing device 100 determines whether all approvers have approved the proposal (S203). If it is determined that all approvers have approved the proposal, the information processing device 100 notifies the applicant that the proposal has been approved (S204). The information processing device 100 may notify the applicant that the proposal has been approved by sending an email to the applicant's account in the proposal system, or it may send an approval notification to the applicant's email address. The applicant's email address can be obtained by referring to the personnel list 174. After that, the information processing device 100 writes "Approved" in the status column of the proposal information 178.

[0055] Next, the accounting information processing unit 160 generates accounting information based on the workflow content (S205). For example, if it is a request for approval to purchase equipment, the accounting information processing unit 160 may refer to the request information 178 and generate accounting information including the name of the equipment and the purchase price. If the request information 178 includes documents such as invoices and quotations, these documents may also be included in the accounting information.

[0056] Next, the accounting information processing unit 160 registers the generated accounting information with the accounting information management device 400 (S206), and terminates the processing according to this flowchart. For example, the accounting information processing unit 160 may request the accounting information management device 400 to register the generated accounting information by controlling the communication unit 110 and transmitting it to the accounting information management device 400. The accounting information management device 400 registers the accounting information received from the information processing device 100 into the accounting information 412 stored in the storage unit 410. This eliminates the need for the workflow applicant to manually register the accounting information with the accounting information management device 400, thereby reducing the workload in accounting operations.

[0057] On the other hand, if it is determined in S203 that not all approvers have approved the proposal, the information processing device 100 notifies the applicant that the proposal has been rejected (S207). The information processing device 100 may notify the applicant that the proposal has been rejected by sending the notification to the applicant's account in the proposal system, or it may send a rejection notice to the applicant's email address. The applicant's email address can be obtained by referring to the personnel list 174. After that, the information processing device 100 writes "Rejected" in the status column of the proposal information 178 and terminates the process according to this flowchart.

[0058] (2) Regarding the approval process for contract renewal of outsourced employees Figure 13 is a flowchart showing an example of the approval process for a request for contract renewal of an outsourced employee, which is performed by the information processing device 100. The information processing device 100 may perform the process shown in Figure 13 in response to instructions from the applicant in the workflow for the request for contract renewal of an outsourced employee.

[0059] First, the workflow drafting unit 150 drafts a workflow for the approval process regarding the contract renewal of an outsourced employee (S301). For example, the workflow drafting unit 150 may draft a workflow based on information entered by the workflow applicant. The workflow drafting unit 150 adds the information of the drafted workflow to the approval information 178 stored in the storage unit 170. Specifically, the workflow drafting unit 150 adds the information entered by the workflow applicant to the approval information 178, linking it to the approval ID. Immediately after the approval is submitted, the approval route and approval history fields are blank, and the status is "incomplete".

[0060] Next, the approval route determination unit 155 determines the approval route of the workflow based on the organizational table 176 stored in the storage unit 170 (S302). For example, in the case of a request for approval regarding the renewal of a contract for a business outsourcing employee, the approval route may be determined to be (1) the section chief of the department to which the applicant belongs, (2) the department head of the department to which the applicant belongs, or (3) the head of the Human Resources Department. The approval route determination unit 155 writes the determined approval route to the request information 178.

[0061] Next, the information processing device 100 determines whether all approvers have approved the proposal (S303). If it is determined that all approvers have approved the proposal, the information processing device 100 notifies the applicant that the proposal has been approved (S304). The information processing device 100 may notify the applicant that the proposal has been approved by sending the notification to the applicant's account in the proposal system, or it may send the approval notification to the applicant's email address. The applicant's email address can be obtained by referring to the personnel list 174. After that, the information processing device 100 writes "Approved" in the status column of the proposal information 178 and terminates the process according to this flowchart.

[0062] On the other hand, if it is determined in S303 that not all approvers have approved the proposal, the information processing device 100 determines whether or not any of the approvers have rejected the proposal (S305). If it is determined that no of the approvers have rejected the proposal, the information processing device 100 determines whether or not the contract period of the outsourced employee who is the subject of the proposal has expired (S306). For example, the information processing device 100 may obtain the contract expiration date of the outsourced employee from the personnel list 174 stored in the storage unit 170, and if the contract expiration date is earlier than the current date, it may determine that the contract period of the outsourced employee who is the subject of the proposal has expired.

[0063] If, in S306, it is determined that the contract period of the outsourced employee subject to the approval request has not expired, the information processing device 100 returns to S303. As a result, the processes of S303, S305, and S306 are repeated until all approvers approve the request, one of the approvers rejects the request, or the contract period of the outsourced employee expires.

[0064] If, in S305, it is determined that any of the approvers has rejected the proposal, or if, in S306, it is determined that the contract period of the outsourced employee who is the subject of the proposal has expired, the information processing device 100 notifies the applicant that the proposal has been rejected (S307). The information processing device 100 may notify the applicant that the proposal has been rejected by sending the notification to the applicant's account in the proposal system, or it may send the rejection notice to the applicant's email address. The applicant's email address can be obtained by referring to the personnel list 174. Subsequently, the information processing device 100 writes "Rejected" in the status column of the proposal information 178.

[0065] Next, the account update unit 130 instructs the account management device 300 to disable the contract employee's account (S308). For example, the account update unit 130 may control the communication unit 110 to send an account disable request, including the contract employee's employee ID, to the account management device 300. The account management device 300 may disable the account corresponding to the employee ID included in the account disable request received from the information processing device 100. Once the contract employee's account is disabled, it becomes impossible to log in to various systems using the contract employee's account. This prevents the contract employee's account from being misused.

[0066] According to the embodiment described above, the information processing device 100 comprises an acquisition unit 120, an update information generation unit 125, and an account update unit 130. The acquisition unit 120 acquires transfer information 214, which is information about transferees who are subject to personnel changes within the company. The update information generation unit 125 generates update information 172 for updating the account information of transferees based on the transfer information 214. The account update unit 130 causes the account information of transferees to be updated in the account management device 300 based on the update information 172. As a result, the information processing device 100 can reduce the workload on the user when updating the account information of transferees.

[0067] In the above explanation, it was assumed that the information processing device 100 and the personnel information management device 200 are separate servers, but this is not limited to this. For example, if the information processing device 100 and the personnel information management device 200 are operated by the same company or group company, a single server integrating the information processing device 100 and the personnel information management device 200 may be provided as the information processing device.

[0068] Although embodiments for carrying out the present invention have been described above using examples, the present invention is not limited in any way to these embodiments, and various modifications and substitutions can be made without departing from the spirit of the present invention.
