[0037] <1.2 Functional configuration of server 20> 3 is a diagram showing the functional configuration of the server 20 constituting the tax return system 1 of the embodiment. As shown in FIG. 3, the server 20 functions as a communication unit 201, a storage unit 202, and a control unit 203.

[0038] The communication unit 201 performs processing for the server 20 to communicate with external devices.

[0039] The storage unit 202 stores data and programs used by the server 20. The storage unit 202 stores an accounting database 2021, a tax return database 2022, and the like.

[0040] The accounting database 2021 is a database for holding accounting data related to daily transactions registered in the tax return system 1. The accounting data stored in the accounting database 2021 is accounting data that a user has entered into an accounting service provided in conjunction with the tax return system 1, or accounting data obtained from a web server that provides other (external) accounting services. Details will be described later.

[0041] The tax return database 2022 is a database for holding information on the format of tax returns such as corporate tax returns, which are used when processing tax returns in the tax return system 1. The format stored in the tax return database 2022 is information on the form layout of the tax return, and defines, for example, information on character strings that are displayed fixedly, information on ruled lines, information on input fields where amounts and the like are entered, etc. This format is updated every time the tax return format is revised due to legal amendments or the like.

[0042] The control unit 203 performs the functions of various modules, such as a reception control module 2031, a transmission control module 2032, a tax return creation module 2033, a journal entry registration module 2034, and a tax return reflection module 2035, by the processor of the server 20 performing processing according to the program.

[0043] The reception control module 2031 controls the process by which the server 20 receives signals from external devices in accordance with a communication protocol.

[0044] The transmission control module 2032 controls the process in which the server 20 transmits signals to external devices in accordance with a communication protocol.

[0045] The tax return preparation module 2033 controls the process of accepting operational inputs when a user operates the terminal device 10 to input operational instructions for preparing a corporate tax return. The tax return preparation module 2033 also controls the process of preparing a tax return in accordance with the user's operations, based on the accounting data in the accounting database 2021. The accounting data in the accounting database 2021 referenced by the tax return preparation module 2033 is, as described above, accounting data that the user inputs into an accounting service provided in conjunction with the tax return system 1, or accounting data obtained from a web server that provides other (external) accounting services.

[0046] At this time, the tax return preparation module 2033 prepares a corporate tax return, for example, by reading accounting data from the accounting database 2021 and inputting the amounts of the settlement data, which are mainly calculated from transaction data (by adding up the amounts for each journal entry), into each item of the tax return format stored in the tax return database 2022. Corporate tax returns are made up of many types, and the content to be reported varies depending on the situation of the corporation, such as Schedule 1, which is a return regarding income for each business year, and Schedule 2, which is a detailed statement regarding the determination of family-owned corporations, etc., and formats for each of these types are stored in the tax return database 2022. Therefore, a corporate tax return is prepared according to attribute information indicating the situation of the corporation. The type of tax return to be prepared may be selected and input by the user, or the tax return preparation module 2033 may select from tax return formats stored in the tax return database 2022 and present it to the user based on attribute information registered in advance as information about the user's corporation.

[0047] The journal entry registration module 2034 controls the process of registering the amount of corporate tax to be paid, determined in the tax return prepared by the tax return preparation module 2033, in journal data as an unsettled transaction amount. The journal entry registration module 2034 registers the amount of corporate tax to be paid as a result of processing by the tax return preparation module 2033 in the accounting data of the accounting database 2021, either automatically or in response to a user operating the terminal device 10 to receive an operational instruction to register the amount of tax to be paid.

[0048] At this time, the journal entry registration module 2034 creates journal entry data for the determined amount of corporate tax paid (unsettled transaction amount) as "corporate tax, resident tax and business tax amount" as the debit item in the journal entry of the accounting data, and "unpaid corporate tax, etc." as the credit item.

[0049] The tax return reflection module 2035 controls the process of reflecting the amount of corporate tax paid (unsettled transaction amount) registered by the journal entry registration module 2034 in the tax return created by the tax return creation module 2033. Specifically, the tax return reflection module 2035 reflects the amount of corporate tax paid by, for example, entering it in the item "tax payment reserve accounted as a loss" in Schedule 5(2) ("Details regarding the payment status of taxes and public dues") of the tax return described below.

[0050] <2 Data Structure> FIG. 4 is a diagram showing an example of the data structure of the accounting database 2021 stored in the server 20.

[0051] As shown in FIG. 4, each record of the accounting database 2021 includes an item "user ID," an item "user name," an item "industry," an item "journal entry information," and the like.

[0052] The item “user ID” is information that identifies each user who uses the tax return system 1.

[0053] The item "user name" is information such as the name, trade name, etc. of the business (corporation) that is the user using the tax return system 1.

[0054] The item "industry" is information indicating the industry of the business operator who is the user using the tax return system 1, and for example, names such as "service" and "software development" are stored as shown in FIG.

[0055] The item "Journal entry information" is information on transactions recorded using the tax return system 1, and specifically includes the item "Date," the item "Account ID," the item "Debit (amount)," the item "Credit (amount)," etc.

[0056] The item "Date" is information indicating the date of the transaction entered in the tax return system 1.

[0057] The item "Account ID" is information that identifies each account entered in the tax return system 1. This item "Account ID" corresponds to the account listed in the summary column of the ledger, for example, the name of the account such as "cash," "accounts receivable," or "accounts payable."

[0058] The item "Debit (amount)" is the amount of the transaction entered in the tax return system 1 that is recorded on the debit side of the ledger.

[0059] The item "Credit (amount)" is the amount of the transaction entered in the tax return system 1 that is recorded on the credit side of the ledger.

[0060] When the server 20 receives an input of a transaction, it adds a record to the accounting database 2021 on a transaction (journal entry) basis.

[0061] <3 operations> Hereinafter, the process of preparing a tax return by the tax return system 1 according to the embodiment will be described with reference to FIG.

[0062] In step S711, the input operation receiving unit 171 of the terminal device 10 receives an operation for preparing a tax return from the user. The transmitting / receiving unit 172 transmits the received operation instruction information for preparing a tax return to the server 20.

[0063] In step S721, the tax return preparation module 2033 of the server 20 receives the operational instruction information for preparing a tax return sent from the terminal device 10 via the communication unit 201. The tax return preparation module 2033 prepares a tax return based on the data in the accounting database 2021 in the storage unit 202 in accordance with the operation input from the terminal device 10.

[0064] In step S712, the input operation receiving unit 171 of the terminal device 10 receives an operation instruction from the user to register the determined amount of corporate tax to be paid in the journal data as an unsettled transaction amount. The transmitting / receiving unit 172 transmits the received registration instruction information for the journal data to the server 20. Note that, as described above, if the journal entry registration module 2034 automatically registers the amount of corporate tax to be paid in the journal data, the processing of step S712 does not need to be performed.

[0065] In step S722, the journal entry registration module 2034 of the server 20 receives, via the communication unit 201, registration instruction information for the journal entry data transmitted from the terminal device 10. The journal entry registration module 2034 registers the amount of corporate tax to be paid, calculated by the processing of step S721, in the journal entry data of the accounting database 2021, in response to an operation input from the terminal device 10.

[0066] In step S723, the journal entry registration module 2034 of the server 20 notifies the terminal device 10 of the journal entry data of the amount of corporate tax paid registered in the process of step S722 by transmitting it via the communication unit 201.

[0067] In step S713, the transmitting / receiving unit 172 of the terminal device 10 accepts the journal data of the amount of corporate tax to be paid transmitted from the server 20. The notification control unit 174 of the terminal device 10 displays the journal data of the amount of corporate tax to be paid notified from the terminal device 10.

[0068] In step S714, the input operation receiving unit 171 of the terminal device 10 receives an operation instruction from the user to reflect the amount of corporate tax paid (unsettled transaction amount) in the tax return. The transmitting / receiving unit 172 transmits the received operation instruction information for reflecting the amount in the tax return to the server 20. Note that if the tax return reflection module 2035 automatically reflects the amount of corporate tax paid (unsettled transaction amount) in the tax return, the processing of step S714 does not need to be performed.

[0069] In step S724, the tax return reflection module 2035 of the server 20 receives, via the communication unit 201, operation instruction information for reflecting the tax return transmitted from the terminal device 10. The tax return reflection module 2035 reflects the amount of corporate tax payable registered by the processing of step S722 in a predetermined tax return, based on the operation input from the terminal device 10.

[0070] In step S725, the server 20 transmits the tax return data reflecting the amount of corporate tax to be paid to the terminal device 10 via the communication unit 201.

[0071] In step S715, the transmitting / receiving unit 172 of the terminal device 10 accepts the tax return data transmitted from the server 20. The notification control unit 174 of the terminal device 10 displays the tax return data notified from the terminal device 10.

[0072] <4 Screen example> Hereinafter, examples of screens for the tax return preparation process in the tax return system 1 will be described with reference to FIGS.

[0073] FIG. 6 is a diagram showing a situation where the tax amount adjustment screen 80 for displaying data relating to tax amount adjustment is displayed on the terminal device 10 (steps S712 to S713).

In area 82, the breakdown of the tax to be paid is displayed in detail column 82a, showing the amount of 70,000 yen for resident tax (per capita levy).

[0075] Area 83 displays the journal entry results for the corporate tax. Specifically, in detail column 83a, the amount of 70,000 yen is recorded in the debit account item "Corporate Tax, etc." In addition, in detail column 83b, the amount of 70,000 yen is recorded in the credit account item "Unpaid Corporate Tax, etc." In this way, the journal entry results for the corporate tax are displayed on tax adjustment screen 80. When the user presses register button 84, the journal entry results are registered in accounting database 2021.

[0076] FIG. 7 is a diagram showing a state in which a tax registration completion screen 90 for displaying the completion of tax registration is displayed on the terminal device 10. As shown in FIG.

[0077] As shown in FIG. 7, when the user presses link icon 91, a screen is displayed for confirming the tax transactions registered in the accounting database 2021. When the user presses button 92, the settlement data (i.e., journal data) is reflected in the tax return. When the user presses button 93, the tax amount adjustment can be redone.
