Summary of the Invention

Problems to be Solved by the Invention

[0005] In recent years, with the spread of information processing technology, information processing devices are sometimes installed on both the local government side and the facility side, and information is managed independently on both sides. In such cases, the information managed on the local government side and the facility side may be managed independently and therefore do not necessarily coincide. When the information managed on the local government side and the facility side does not coincide, the smooth operation of the facility and administrative services is hindered. However, the corporate childcare facility management system described in Patent Document 1 does not take into account the case where the information managed on the local government side and the facility side does not coincide.

[0006] Therefore, the present invention aims to facilitate the smooth operation of facilities and administrative services. [Means for solving the problem]

[0007] A difference notification system according to one aspect of the present invention comprises: a first acquisition unit that acquires local government information managed by the local government regarding a facility; a second acquisition unit that acquires facility information managed by the facility that corresponds to the local government information; a difference identification unit that identifies the difference between the local government information and the facility information; a notification unit that outputs notification information notifying the difference to a notification destination device, which is either a local government device used by a user on the local government side or a facility device used by a user on the facility side; and a confirmation result output unit that outputs the confirmation result for the difference to a notification source device, which is either a local government device or a facility device different from the notification destination device. [Effects of the Invention]

[0008] According to the present invention, it is possible to realize the smooth operation of facilities and administrative services. [Brief explanation of the drawing]

[Figure 7] This figure shows an example of a display screen shown on the display unit of the facility-side device 300, which is the notification recipient device. [Figure 8] This flowchart shows an example of processing in the differential notification system 100. [Modes for carrying out the invention]

[0010] A preferred embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the attached drawings. Figure 1 is a diagram showing an overview of the processing in a differential notification system 100, which is one embodiment of the present invention.

[0011] The difference notification system 100 is an information processing system implemented by a difference notification program. The difference notification system 100 is an information processing system that identifies and notifies the differences between local government information managed by the local government regarding a facility and facility-side information managed by the facility that corresponds to the local government information.

[0012] First, the difference notification system 100 obtains local government information from the local government device 200 (S101). The difference notification system 100 obtains facility information from the facility device 300 (S102). The difference notification system 100 identifies the differences between the local government information and the facility information (S103).

[0013] Subsequently, the difference notification system 100 notifies notification information for notifying the difference to a destination device (for example, the facility-side device 300) that is the destination among the local government-side device 200 and the facility-side device 300 (S104). The difference notification system 100 acquires a confirmation result for the difference from the destination device (for example, the facility-side device 300) (S105). Then, the difference notification system 100 outputs the confirmation result for the difference to a source device (for example, the local government-side device 200) that is the source among the local government-side device 200 and the facility-side device 300 (S106).

[0014] FIG. 2 is a diagram showing the configuration of a difference notification system 100 according to an embodiment of the present invention. The difference notification system 100 is communicably connected to the local government-side device 200 and the facility-side device 300 via a network such as the Internet. Details of the difference notification system 100 will be described later.

[0015] The local government-side device 200 is an information processing device used by a user on the local government side, and is, for example, a computer, a smartphone, a tablet terminal, a personal computer, or the like.

[0016] The local government-side device 200 may be an information processing device used by a local government employee who is a user on the local government side. Here, the local government includes, for example, a local government that manages information on facilities and manages the operation of facilities.

[0017] The local government-side device 200 can access the difference notification system 100 and provide local government-side information to the difference notification system 100. Further, the local government-side device 200 can receive a notification of the difference between the local government-side information and the facility-side information from the difference notification system 100. Further, the local government-side device 200 can instruct the difference notification system 100 to update the difference.

[0018] The facility-side device 300 is an information processing device used by a user on the facility side, and is, for example, a computer, a smartphone, a tablet terminal, a personal computer, or the like.

[0019] The facility-side device 300 may be, for example, an information processing device used by a facility staff member who is a user on the facility side. Here, the facility may be, for example, a childcare facility. The childcare facility may include, for example, a kindergarten and a daycare facility.

[0020] The facility-side device 300 accesses the differential notification system 100 and provides facility-side information to the differential notification system 100. Also, the facility-side device 300 can receive a notification of the difference between the local government-side information and the facility-side information from the differential notification system 100. Further, the facility-side device 300 can instruct the differential notification system 100 to update the difference.

[0021] In FIG. 2, one local government-side device 200 and one facility-side device 300 are shown, but there may be a plurality of local government-side devices 200 and facility-side devices 300, respectively.

[0022] Next, the details of the differential notification system 100 will be described. The differential notification system 100 includes a storage unit 110, a first acquisition unit 115, a second acquisition unit 120, a difference identification unit 125, a notification unit 130, a notification destination confirmation result acquisition unit 135, a notification destination confirmation result output unit 140, a notification source confirmation result acquisition unit 145, an update unit 150, and an invoice creation unit 155. Each unit shown in FIG. 2 can be realized, for example, by using a storage area or by a processor executing a program stored in the storage area.

[0023] The storage unit 110 stores information processed in the differential notification system 100. The storage unit 110 can store, for example, local government-side information, facility-side information, identification result information, notification information, notification destination confirmation result information, and notification source confirmation result information, which will be described later.

[0024] The first acquisition unit 115 acquires local government-side information managed by the local government regarding the facility and stores the local government-side information in the storage unit 110.

[0025] Local government information includes, for example, user information about facility users. User information includes, for example, information about at least one of the following: name, age, gender, address, and contact information of the facility user. Here, if the facility is a childcare facility, the facility user may be, for example, a child belonging to a childcare facility, and the user information may be child information about the child. Furthermore, the child information may also include information about the amount of childcare required.

[0026] The information from the local government may also include, for example, information about facility staff, as described later.

[0027] Local governments manage user information (e.g., child information) to manage and supervise whether facilities are providing facility services appropriately. Local government information may be information managed within the local government's internal network (e.g., Local Government Wide Area Network (LGWAN)) that is accessible only to devices authenticated by the local government (e.g., local government device 200), or it may be information managed in a so-called government cloud. Local government information may also be information managed in an account corresponding to the local government set up in the differential notification system 100. This allows the differential notification system 100 to identify the difference between the local government information managed within the local government's internal network and the facility information managed by the facility device 300.

[0028] The first acquisition unit 115 can acquire local government information from the local government device 200. Here, the local government device 200 may, for example, acquire a predetermined file containing local government information output from the local government's core system (for example, a system within the integrated administrative network), acquire local government information from the file, and output the acquired local government information to the differential notification system 100. This allows the differential notification system 100 to acquire local government information while maintaining the security of the local government's core system, without requiring the differential notification system 100 and the local government's core system to be connected for communication via a network.

[0029] Figure 3 shows an example of local government information stored in the storage unit 110. The local government information stored in the storage unit 110 includes, for example, a local government ID and user information. The local government ID is information that identifies the local government (for example, the local government device 200).

[0030] The second acquisition unit 120 acquires facility-side information managed by the facility, which corresponds to the information on the local government side, and stores the facility-side information in the storage unit 110.

[0031] Facility-side information includes, for example, information corresponding to local government-side information. If local government-side information includes user information, facility-side information includes user information managed by facility-side device 300.

[0032] Furthermore, facility information may include, for example, information about the facility itself. Facility information may include, for example, information about the facility staff. Facility staff information may include, for example, information about at least one of the following: the name, age, gender, qualifications, address, contact information, employment type, job title, position, and work status of the facility staff.

[0033] The facility manages its own information independently of, for example, the local government's information. That is, the facility may manage its own information in a database different from the local government's internal network or government cloud (for example, a database maintained or contracted by the facility, or the storage unit of the facility's device 300), or it may be managed in an area within the local government's internal network or government cloud that is different from the area where the local government's information is managed. Furthermore, the facility's information may be managed by an account corresponding to the facility set up in the differential notification system 100. In these cases, since the local government's information and the facility's information are managed independently of each other, discrepancies (differences) may occur. Therefore, the differential notification system 100 identifies and notifies the facility of such differences.

[0034] Figure 4 shows an example of facility-side information stored in the storage unit 110. The facility-side information stored in the storage unit 110 includes, for example, a facility-side ID, user information, and staff information. The facility-side ID is information that identifies the facility (for example, a facility-side device 300). The user information included in the facility-side information corresponds to the user information included in the local government-side information, but the content indicated by the user information included in the facility-side information and the content indicated by the user information included in the local government-side information may be different.

[0035] The difference identification unit 125 identifies the differences between the local government information and the facility information, and stores the identification result information related to the identification result in the storage unit 110.

[0036] The difference identification unit 125, for example, refers to the local government information and the facility information and identifies the parts that differ between the local government information and the facility information as differences.

[0037] The difference identification unit 125 may, for example, refer to user information included in the local government information and user information included in the facility information, and identify the differences in user information for each user. This allows the difference notification system 100 to notify the notification destination device of the differences for each user.

[0038] The difference identification unit 125 may, for example, use the local government information as a reference and identify the parts of the facility information that differ from the local government information as differences. Alternatively, the difference identification unit 125 may, for example, use the facility information as a reference and identify the parts of the local government information that differ from the facility information as differences.

[0039] Furthermore, the difference identification unit 125 may identify differences based, for example, on instructions from the local government-side device 200 or the facility-side device 300. This allows users of the local government-side device 200 or the facility-side device 300 to utilize the difference identification process by the difference notification system 100 as needed.

[0040] Furthermore, the difference identification unit 125 may generate difference display information for displaying the difference identified by the difference identification unit 125 on the notification destination device, and output the difference display information to the notification source device. This allows the notification source device to instruct the notification destination device whether or not to send a notification using the notification unit 130 described later.

[0041] In this case, the difference display information includes, for example, display information for showing the content indicated by the facility information and the content indicated by the local government information for each user and for each item. Furthermore, the difference display information may also include, for example, display information for showing the content indicated by the facility information and the content indicated by the local government information for each user and for each item, only for users where there is a difference between the facility information and the local government information. Additionally, the difference display information may include display information for displaying an area (e.g., radio buttons) for selecting the content to adopt.

[0042] The notification unit 130 generates notification information that notifies of the difference based on the specified result information, stores it in the storage unit 110, and outputs the notification information to the notification destination device, which is either the local government-side device 200 or the facility-side device 300.

[0043] The notification unit 130 can output notification information to, for example, the facility-side device 300. When the difference identification unit 125 identifies a difference between the facility-side information and the local government-side information, based on the local government-side information, the notification unit 130 may output notification information to the facility-side device 300. This allows the facility-side device 300 to understand the difference with the local government-side information.

[0044] Furthermore, the notification unit 130 can output notification information to, for example, the local government-side device 200. When the difference identification unit 125 identifies a difference between the facility-side information and the local government-side information, the notification unit 130 may output notification information to the local government-side device 200. This allows the local government-side device 200 to grasp the difference with the facility-side information.

[0045] The notification information includes, for example, difference content information relating to the content of the difference identified by the difference identification unit 125.

[0046] Furthermore, the notification information may also include, for example, confirmation request information requesting the recipient device to confirm the contents of the differences. This allows the difference notification system 100 to request the recipient device to confirm the contents of the differences.

[0047] Furthermore, the notification unit 130 may, for example, output notification information to a notification destination device among the municipal-side device 200 or facility-side device 300 that is different from the notification source device, based on instructions from the notification source device among the municipal-side device 200 or facility-side device 300. This allows users of the municipal-side device 200 or facility-side device 300 to utilize the notification processing by the differential notification system 100 as needed.

[0048] The notification unit 130 may, for example, generate notification display information for displaying notification information on a notification destination device, and output the notification display information to the notification destination device.

[0049] Figure 5 shows an example of notification information stored in the storage unit 110. The notification information stored in the storage unit 110 includes, for example, a notification information ID and notification content information. The notification information ID is information that identifies the notification information stored in the storage unit 110. The notification content information is information that indicates the content of the notification, for example, information that indicates the content of the identified difference.

[0050] The notification recipient confirmation result acquisition unit 135 acquires notification recipient confirmation result information regarding the confirmation result for the difference in the notification recipient device from the notification recipient device and stores the notification recipient confirmation result information in the storage unit 110.

[0051] The notification recipient confirmation result information may include, for example, update instruction information that instructs the updating of the differential. The update instruction information included in the notification recipient confirmation result information may include, for example, update acceptance information that accepts the update corresponding to the differential, or update rejection information that rejects the update corresponding to the differential.

[0052] The notification recipient confirmation result output unit 140 outputs the confirmation result for the difference to the notification source device, which is either the local government-side device 200 or the facility-side device 300, and is different from the notification recipient device.

[0053] The notification recipient confirmation result output unit 140 may, for example, output the notification recipient confirmation result information acquired by the notification recipient confirmation result acquisition unit 135 to the notification recipient device. Alternatively, the notification recipient confirmation result output unit 140 may, for example, output information obtained by processing the notification recipient confirmation result information to the notification recipient device.

[0054] The notification recipient confirmation result output unit 140 can output update request information as a confirmation result, requesting an update based on at least one of the local government information and the facility information. Here, the update based on at least one of the local government information and the facility information includes, for example, an update corresponding to a specified difference based on at least one of the local government information and the facility information.

[0055] When the notification unit 130 outputs notification information to the facility-side device 300, the notification destination confirmation result output unit 140 can output the confirmation result to the local government-side device 200. This allows the differential notification system 100 to update information based on the confirmation result for the difference in the facility-side device 300.

[0056] Furthermore, when the notification unit 130 outputs notification information to the local government-side device 200, the notification destination confirmation result output unit 140 can output the confirmation result to the facility-side device 300. This allows the differential notification system 100 to update information based on the confirmation result for the difference in the local government-side device 200.

[0057] The notification source confirmation result acquisition unit 145 acquires the confirmation result from the notification source device and stores the notification source confirmation result information related to the said confirmation result in the storage unit 110.

[0058] The notification source confirmation result acquisition unit 145 can acquire update instruction information regarding differential update instructions received from the notification source device as notification source confirmation result information. Here, the update instruction information includes, for example, information regarding the location to be updated and the content of the update.

[0059] The notification source device can refer to the notification destination confirmation result information and output notification source confirmation result information, including update instruction information that instructs the updating of the difference, to the difference notification system 100. Here, the updating of the difference includes updates based on local government information (i.e., updating the difference between the facility information and the local government information to match the content indicated by the local government information), updates based on facility information (i.e., updating the difference between the local government information and the facility information to match the content indicated by the facility information), and both.

[0060] The update unit 150 updates at least one of the local government information and the facility information based on the confirmation result (for example, at least one of the notification source confirmation result information or the notification recipient confirmation result information).

[0061] If the update instruction information included in the confirmation results (for example, at least one of the notification source confirmation result information or the notification recipient confirmation result information) instructs an update based on the local government's information, the update unit 150 can update the differences between the facility's information and the local government's information to match the content indicated by the local government's information. Also, if the update instruction information instructs an update based on the facility's information, the update unit 150 can update the differences between the local government's information and the facility's information to match the content indicated by the facility's information.

[0062] Here, the update of local government information or facility information by the update unit 150 may also be performed by updating local government information or facility information managed by the differential notification system 100 (for example, uploaded to the storage used by the differential notification system 100).

[0063] The differential notification system 100 can update information based on, for example, the notification source confirmation result information, taking into account confirmations from both the local government-side device 200 and the facility-side device 300. More specifically, for example, the notification recipient device first performs an update acceptance operation to accept the update through the differential notification system 100, the notification source device, upon receiving notification that the update acceptance operation has been performed, issues an update instruction based on the update acceptance operation, and the differential notification system 100 can perform the update based on the update instruction. In this way, the differential notification system 100 can update information with the consent of both the local government-side device 200 and the facility-side device 300.

[0064] Furthermore, the differential notification system 100 may update information based, for example, on update instruction information received from the local government-side device 200. In this regard, the information updated by the differential notification system 100 may include, so to speak, public information managed by the local government. Therefore, by updating based on update instructions from the local government-side device 200 rather than update instructions from the facility-side device 300, the differential notification system 100 can maintain the reliability of the updated information.

[0065] Furthermore, the differential notification system 100 can update information based, for example, on notification recipient confirmation result information. More specifically, for example, the notification recipient device can perform an update acceptance operation to accept the update through the differential notification system 100, and the differential notification system 100 can perform the update based on said update acceptance operation. This allows the notification recipient device to directly issue update instructions to the differential notification system 100. The differential notification system 100 can, for example, update the first piece of information based on an update instruction from the notification recipient device, and further update the second piece of information based on an update instruction from the notification source device, depending on the information to be updated (especially, for example, the importance of the information).

[0066] Next, the processing performed by the difference identification unit 125, notification unit 130, notification destination confirmation result acquisition unit 135, notification destination confirmation result output unit 140, notification source confirmation result acquisition unit 145, and update unit 150 will be explained using a specific example. Here, we will explain using the example where the local government side information includes child information, the notification destination device is the facility side device 300, and the notification source device is the local government side device 200.

[0067] Here, since the child information includes, for example, information based on the Basic Resident Register Network System, the child information managed by the local government may be more accurate than the child information managed by the facility. Therefore, the difference notification system 100 notifies the local government device 200 of the differences in child information, using the local government device 200 as the notification source device.

[0068] First, the difference identification unit 125 identifies the difference between the local government information (i.e., in this case, the child information managed by the local government device 200) and the facility information (i.e., in this case, the child information managed by the facility device 300). At this time, the difference identification unit 125 may, for example, use the local government information as a reference and identify the part of the facility information that differs from the local government information as the difference. Next, the notification unit 130 notifies the facility device 300 of the identified difference. The facility device 300 confirms the notified difference and outputs notification destination confirmation result information to the difference notification system 100 indicating whether to accept the update based on the local government information or whether to reject the update based on the local government information, and the notification destination confirmation result acquisition unit 135 acquires the notification destination confirmation result information.

[0069] The notification recipient confirmation result output unit 140 outputs the notification recipient confirmation result information to the local government device 200. The notification source confirmation result acquisition unit 145 acquires the notification source confirmation result information from the local government device 200. At this time, the notification source confirmation result acquisition unit 145 acquires the notification source confirmation result information including the update instruction information. The update unit 150 updates the facility-side information based on the update instruction information.

[0070] In this way, the differential notification system 100 updates information based on instructions from the notification source device. Specifically, the differential notification system 100 updates facility-side information based on instructions from, for example, the local government-side device 200. This allows the differential notification system 100 to update the differences in the information managed by the notification destination device based on explicit instructions received from the notification source device, particularly the local government-side device 200, which manages the information used as the basis for identifying the differences, thereby preventing easy updates by the notification destination device.

[0071] Figure 6 shows an example of a display screen shown on the display unit of the local government-side device 200, which is the notification source device. The example of the display screen shown in Figure 6 is, for example, an example of a display screen that is displayed based on the difference display information output by the difference identification unit 125.

[0072] The screen shown in Figure 6 includes, for example, an area 601 that displays the content indicated by facility-side information for each user and item, and an area 602 that displays the content indicated by local government-side information for each user and item. The notification source device can, for example, select the content to be adopted from the content displayed in areas 601 and 602 by operating an area (for example, radio buttons) for selecting the content to be adopted. In this way, the notification source device can propose a method for reflecting the differences to the device through the difference notification system 100.

[0073] Figure 7 shows an example of a display screen shown on the display unit of the facility-side device 300, which is the notification recipient device. The example of the display screen shown in Figure 7 is an example of a display screen that is displayed by notification display information output by the notification unit 130, for example.

[0074] The screen shown in Figure 7 includes, for example, an area 701 that displays the content indicated by the facility-side information managed by the notification-receiving device, an area 702 that shows the updated content selected by the notification-sending device, the municipal-side device 200, and an area 703 that allows the facility-side device 300 to select whether or not to accept the update. Users of the facility-side device 300 can, for example, select whether or not to accept the update by selecting a radio button displayed in area 703.

[0075] Furthermore, if the information managed by the facility is more accurate than the information managed by the local government (for example, in the case of employee information), the processing of the difference notification system 100 for that information may be carried out similarly, with the notification destination device being the local government device 200 and the notification source device being the facility device 300.

[0076] The invoice creation unit 155 creates an invoice from the facility to the local government based on the information contained in at least one of the local government information and the facility information. At this time, the invoice creation unit 155 can create an invoice based on the child information updated by the update unit 150.

[0077] Here, childcare facilities periodically (for example, monthly) submit claims for grants, subsidies, or subsidies to the local government. The grants, subsidies, or subsidies paid by the local government to the childcare facilities vary depending on, for example, the number of children using the facility, particularly the number by age and the amount of childcare required. If the child information provided by the local government does not match the child information provided by the facility, the invoice issued by the facility may be deemed inappropriate by the local government, potentially leading to rework in the invoice creation process and hindering smooth billing. Therefore, the invoice creation unit 155 uses the update unit 150 to ensure that the child information provided by the local government and the facility are identical before creating the invoice. This allows the invoice creation unit 155 to create invoices based on accurate child information.

[0078] In this case, the invoice creation unit 155 may create an invoice if the update unit 150 results in the local government information and the facility information indicating the same child information. This allows the invoice creation unit 155 to create an invoice based on accurate child information. Alternatively, the invoice creation unit 155 may create an invoice even if the local government information and the facility information do not indicate the same child information. In this case, the invoice creation unit 155 may, for example, create an invoice based on child information derived from at least one of the local government information and the facility information, based on instructions from a user of the differential notification system 100 (for example, a facility staff member). This allows the invoice creation unit 155 to support the invoice creation process even before the local government information and the facility information match.

[0079] Furthermore, the invoice creation unit 155 can create invoices based on additional staff information included in the facility information. Here, the grants, subsidies, or subsidies paid by the local government to the childcare facility vary depending, for example, on the number of staff at the childcare facility, particularly the number of staff with specific qualifications. Therefore, the invoice creation unit 155 can create accurate invoices by creating them based on additional staff information.

[0080] Figure 8 is a flowchart showing an example of processing in the differential notification system 100.

[0081] First, the first acquisition unit 115 acquires information from the local government (S801). The second acquisition unit 120 acquires information from the facility (S802). The difference identification unit 125 identifies the differences between the local government information and the facility information (S803). The notification unit 130 outputs notification information to the notification destination device to notify it of the differences (S804).

[0082] Next, the notification recipient confirmation result acquisition unit 135 acquires notification recipient confirmation result information from the notification recipient device (S805). The notification recipient confirmation result output unit 140 outputs the notification recipient confirmation result information to the notification source device (S806). The notification source confirmation result acquisition unit 145 acquires notification source confirmation result information from the notification source device (S807). The update unit 150 updates at least one of the local government side information and the facility side information based on the update instruction acquired from the notification source device (S808). The invoice creation unit 155 creates an invoice from the facility to the local government based on the updated information (S809).

[0083] The present invention has been described above. The difference notification system 100 acquires local government information, acquires facility information, identifies the difference between the local government information and the facility information, outputs notification information to a notification destination device among the local government device or facility device, and outputs the confirmation result for the difference to a notification source device among the local government device or facility device that is different from the notification destination device. As a result, the difference notification system 100 can realize the smooth operation of facilities and administrative services.

[0084] Furthermore, the differential notification system 100 can update at least one of the local government information and the facility information based on the verification results. This allows the differential notification system 100 to update the information appropriately even if there are discrepancies between the local government information and the facility information, thereby enabling the smooth operation of facilities and administrative services.

[0085] Furthermore, the differential notification system 100 can update at least one of the local government information and the facility information based on update instructions obtained from the notification source device. As a result, the differential notification system 100 can appropriately update the information even if there is a discrepancy between the local government information and the facility information, thereby enabling the smooth operation of facilities and administrative services.

[0086] Furthermore, the differential notification system 100 can output update request information as a confirmation result, requesting an update based on at least one of the local government information and the facility information. This allows the differential notification system 100 to update the information even if there is a discrepancy between the local government information and the facility information, after obtaining the consent of both the local government device and the facility device.

[0087] Furthermore, the differential notification system 100 can update child information relating to children belonging to childcare facilities, using at least one of the local government's information and the facility's information. This enables the differential notification system 100 to ensure the smooth operation of administrative services related to early childhood education and care facilities.

[0088] Furthermore, the differential notification system 100 can create invoices from the facility to the local government based on the child information. In this case, the differential notification system 100 can create invoices based on the updated child information. This allows the differential notification system 100 to create invoices in a way that is convenient for its users.
