DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0017] Hereinafter, an embodiment of an additional attachment task support device, an additional attachment task support method, and an additional attachment task support program according to the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. Note that the present invention is not limited to the embodiment.

[0018] [1. Overview] In recent years, in order to comply with the Electronic Bookkeeping Act and other laws, the storage of data for electronic transactions has become mandatory. In this situation, there is a demand to be able to view invoices and other regulatory documents that are linked to the ledger. Specifically, there is a demand to be able to check the flow of data from sales management systems and expense reimbursement systems to accounting while checking supporting documents.

[0019] For example, there is a need to be able to check which debt or travel expense documents a certain financial document is linked to and what supporting documents it is linked to.Also, when supporting documents are generated after a document is entered from a sales management system or expense reimbursement system (for example, when an invoice for an October document arrives in November), there is a need to be able to attach the supporting documents.

[0020] However, in the past, while it was possible to link invoices and supporting documents, it was not possible to attach supporting documents midway. As a result, after linking, the accounting department had no choice but to issue red / black invoices, which placed a heavy burden on the accounting department. In addition, issuing red / black invoices made it difficult to trace the link with sales management systems, expense reimbursement systems, etc., which was undesirable from a control perspective. Furthermore, since different people were in charge of each business, managing supporting documents became cumbersome, and there was also the problem of not being able to know at which stage of the linking process the supporting documents were attached.

[0021] In other words, in the past, it was impossible to attach supporting documents during the process of linking to accounting, so the accounting side had to issue new red / black vouchers and reattach supporting documents. This not only resulted in cost, but also in the problem that the attached vouchers were not linked documents, making it difficult to trace the linking process and taking time to gather information for management decisions.

[0022] Therefore, in this embodiment, for example, it is made possible to attach supporting documents from multiple systems. This eliminates the need to issue unnecessary red and black vouchers, and distributes the load that was concentrated on the accounting department. However, vouchers that have been finally approved are still subject to red and black voucher issuance as before.

[0023] Furthermore, in this embodiment, for example, since the management of files attached across multiple systems is completed on the same ERP (Enterprise Resources Planning) system, it is possible to drill down from a financial document and check which document in which system the document was attached. This eliminates unnecessary red and black documents, making it possible to check the linking process without interruption.

[0024] In this embodiment, for example, the accounting system can attach supporting documents to documents linked from a sales management system, expense reimbursement system, etc. This makes it possible to attach supporting documents without issuing extra red / black documents when a process that requires the attachment of additional supporting documents occurs or when supporting documents have been omitted. This ability to attach supporting documents successfully reduces the costs associated with issuing and checking red / black documents, and also makes it easier to trace the linking process, resulting in faster management decisions.

[0025] For reference, a list of systems and databases related to this embodiment is shown in Fig. 2. The specific configuration and operation will be described below.

[0026] [2. Configuration] An example of the configuration of the additional attachment work support device 100 according to this embodiment will be described with reference to Fig. 1. Fig. 1 is a block diagram showing an example of the configuration of the additional attachment work support device 100.

[0027] The additional attachment task support device 100 is a commercially available desktop personal computer. Note that the additional attachment task support device 100 is not limited to a stationary information processing device such as a desktop personal computer, but may also be a portable information processing device such as a commercially available notebook personal computer, a PDA (Personal Digital Assistant), a smartphone, or a tablet personal computer.

[0028] The additional attachment support device 100 comprises a control unit 102, a communication interface unit 104, a memory unit 106, and an input / output interface unit 108.

In the following, the output device 114 may be referred to as the monitor 114, and the input device 112 may be referred to as the keyboard 112 or the mouse 112.

[0031] Various databases, tables, files, etc. are stored in the storage unit 106. Computer programs that work in conjunction with the OS (Operating System) to issue commands to the CPU (Central Processing Unit) to perform various processes are recorded in the storage unit 106. The storage unit 106 can be, for example, a memory device such as RAM (Random Access Memory) or ROM (Read Only Memory), a fixed disk device such as a hard disk, a flexible disk, an optical disk, etc.

[0032] The storage unit 106 includes, for example, a sales DB 106a as a link source database, an accounting DB 106b as a link destination database, and a voucher storage DB 106c as a voucher storage database.

[0033] As shown in FIG. 13 and other figures, the sales DB 106a includes, for example, purchase information data, electronic voucher linking data (sales), slip number linking data, and the like.

[0034] The purchase information data includes, for example, a voucher number, etc., as shown in Figure 13 etc. The electronic voucher linking data (sales) includes, for example, a voucher number, voucher identification data (electronic voucher GUID) for identifying the voucher, a classification of the database in which the data will be stored that indicates the sales database (sales management), and a classification (regulatory classification) regarding the method of storing the data, etc. The classification (regulatory classification) is a classification that means that the file is stored as a voucher (the regulatory classification of "electronic transaction" or "scanner storage"), or a classification that means that the file is stored as other files rather than as a voucher (the regulatory classification of "other").

[0035] As shown in Figure 13, the document number linking data includes, for example, the link source document number (Purchase document A and Purchase document B), which is the document number of the link source document, and the linking document number (Linking document Z and Linking document X), which is the document number of the linking document.

[0036] As shown in FIG. 14 and other figures, the accounting DB 106b includes, for example, journal data, electronic voucher linking data (finance), file data, and slip number linking data.

[0037] The journal data includes, for example, a slip number and an approval category, as shown in Figures 11, 12, and 14. The approval category is a category indicating that the final approval of the linked destination slip has not yet been given (the approval category "Under Approval" in Figure 11), or a category indicating that the final approval of the linked destination slip has already been given (the approval category "Approved" in Figure 12).

[0038] As shown in Figure 14, the electronic voucher linking data (finance) includes, for example, a voucher number, the voucher identification data (electronic voucher Guid), a classification indicating an accounting database among the classifications related to the database where the data will be stored (financial accounting), and the classification (system classification), etc.

[0039] As shown in Figure 14, the document number linking data includes, for example, the linked document number (journal entry document C and journal entry document D), which is the document number of the linked document, and the linked document number (linked document Z and linked document X).

[0040] The file data consists of file image data and file information data, as shown in Fig. 14 etc. The file image data includes, for example, the evidence identification data (electronic evidence Guid), binary data (data) of the evidence, etc. As shown in Fig. 14 etc., the file information data includes, for example, the evidence identification data (electronic evidence Guid), memos, the file name of the evidence, etc.

[0041] The voucher storage DB 106c includes, for example, voucher data, as shown in Fig. 15 etc. The voucher data consists of voucher image data and voucher information data, as shown in Fig. 15 etc. The voucher image data includes, for example, the voucher identification data (electronic voucher Guid) and the voucher binary data (data), as shown in Fig. 15 etc. The voucher information data includes, for example, the voucher identification data (electronic voucher Guid), the voucher file name, the voucher file type (file type), the transaction date, the amount, the customer name, the item name, the receipt date, the size, the reason for delay, the classification (regime classification), a deletion flag, etc.

[0042] The control unit 102 is a CPU or the like that comprehensively controls the additional attachment support device 100. The control unit 102 has an internal memory for storing control programs such as an OS, programs that define various processing procedures, required data, etc., and executes various information processing based on these stored programs.

[0043] The control unit 102 has, in terms of functional concept, for example: (1) an approval category acquisition unit 102a as approval category acquisition means for acquiring an approval category linked to a linked destination voucher number specified on a screen for correcting the linked destination voucher from the journal data stored in the linked destination database; (2) an additional attachment storage unit 102b as additional attachment storage means for generating electronic evidence linking data including the linked destination voucher number and evidence identification data for the additionally attached evidence, and storing the electronic evidence linking data in the linked destination database, when the approval category acquired by the approval category acquisition means is a category indicating that the linked destination voucher has not yet been finalized; (3) an error message display unit 102c as error message display means for displaying on the screen an error message indicating that an additional evidence cannot be attached to the linked destination voucher identified by the specified linked destination voucher number, when the approval category acquired by the approval category acquisition means is a category indicating that the linked destination voucher has already been finalized; and (4) an error message display unit 102c as error message display means for displaying on the screen an error message indicating that an additional evidence cannot be attached to the linked destination voucher identified by the specified linked destination voucher number. (5) a temporary table generating unit 102d as temporary table generating means for generating a temporary table for specifying a slip number, which is a table including details that associate and store the link source slip number and the link destination slip number, using the linking slip number based on the slip number linking data; (6) a confirmation candidate display unit 102e as confirmation candidate display means for displaying the details included in the temporary table for specifying a slip number as confirmation candidates; and (7) a confirmation candidate display unit 102f as confirmation candidate display means for displaying the details included in the temporary table for specifying a slip number when a specific detail is selected from the details displayed by the confirmation candidate display means. a voucher identification data etc. acquisition unit 102f as a voucher identification data etc. acquisition means for acquiring, from the table, a linked source voucher number corresponding to the linked destination voucher number held by the selected specific detail, and further acquiring, from the electronic voucher linking data stored in the linked source database, voucher identification data and classification linked to the acquired linked source voucher number; and (7) if the classification acquired by the voucher identification data etc. acquisition means is a classification meaning that the file is to be stored as a voucher, from the voucher data stored in the voucher storage database,The system is provided with: (8) a voucher acquisition unit 102g as a voucher acquisition means for acquiring the file names of the vouchers and the binary data of the vouchers linked to the voucher identification data acquired by the voucher identification data etc. acquisition means; (9) a voucher display unit 102i as a voucher display means for displaying the file names of the vouchers acquired by the voucher acquisition means in a list when a specific detail is selected from the details displayed by the confirmation candidate display means; and (10) a voucher display unit 102i as a voucher display means for displaying the file names of the vouchers and the binary data of the vouchers selected from the file names of the vouchers displayed by the file name list display means among the file names of the vouchers acquired by the voucher acquisition means (a voucher display means for displaying the file names of the vouchers and the binary data of the vouchers acquired by the voucher acquisition means when a specific detail is selected from the details displayed by the confirmation candidate display means). Specific examples of the processing executed by each unit will be described below in [4. Specific Examples of Processing].

[0044] [3. Overview of Workflow] In this section, an outline of a conventional business flow and an outline of a business flow in this embodiment will be compared and explained.

[0045] [3-1. Overview of conventional business flow] The conventional workflow for when a delivery is made in April is explained using Figure 3. First, the client sends a delivery note to the purchasing clerk. Next, the purchasing clerk generates purchase data from the sales management system by attaching the delivery note. The purchasing clerk then links the generated purchase data from the sales management system to the accounting system, and transfers the delivery note to the accounting clerk.

[0046] The conventional workflow for when an invoice for April delivery is sent in May will be explained using Figure 4. Because the accounting system has already been linked to the sales management system, the purchasing staff cannot attach the invoice. This is also true in this embodiment, but the conventional problem was that the accounting staff could not attach invoices and approval documents from the accounting system midway. This inability to attach documents midway increased the burden on the accounting staff, and also forced the accounting staff to create unnecessary new red / black slips, as shown on the far right of Figure 4.

[0047] [3-2. Overview of the Workflow in This Embodiment] The business flow in this embodiment when delivery occurs in April is shown in Fig. 5. Since the content is the same as that in Fig. 3, the explanation will be omitted.

[0048] The workflow in this embodiment, when an invoice for April delivery is sent in May, will be explained using Figure 6. As mentioned above, because the sales management system has already linked the accounting system with the journal entries, the purchasing staff cannot attach invoices, as in the past. However, in this embodiment, the accounting staff can attach invoices and approval documents mid-way through the process from the accounting system. Note that, in both the past and this embodiment, it is not possible to attach documents mid-way through a voucher that has been finally approved, as shown on the far right of Figure 6. If you want to attach a document to a voucher that has been finally approved, you must create a new red / black invoice, as shown in Figure 7.

[0049] In this way, this embodiment has succeeded in reducing the workload on the accounting department and strengthening control by allowing accounting personnel to attach documents mid-way through the accounting system. Furthermore, this embodiment has made it possible to do the following, for example: -You can now attach documents from multiple systems. - There is no longer any need to issue unnecessary red and black slips. -You can now drill down from financial documents and see at a glance which supporting documents are attached to which documents in which systems. ·Management of files attached across multiple systems can now all be completed on the same ERP.

[0050] [4. Specific examples of processing] This section describes a specific example of the processing according to this embodiment. As shown in Figure 8, this section explains a situation in which a purchasing clerk registers File A (delivery note) and then an accounting clerk registers File B (invoice) and File C (approval document).

[0051] Below, [4-1] explains specific examples of additional attachment of supporting documents, and [4-2] explains specific examples of confirmation of supporting documents.

[0052] [4-1. Examples of additional attachment of supporting evidence] This section explains specific examples of additional attachment of supporting documents.

[0053] (1) Registering purchase slips First, the purchasing staff enters information about purchase slip A and attaches a delivery note on the purchase entry screen shown in Fig. 9. As a result, purchase information data, slip number linking data, and electronic voucher linking data (sales) are generated in the sales DB, as shown in Fig. 9. Also, voucher image data and voucher information data, including a record for the delivery note, are generated in the voucher storage DB, as shown in Fig. 9.

[0054] (2) Collaboration from sales to finance Next, as shown in Figure 10, purchase voucher A is linked from the sales DB to the accounting DB. At this time, as shown in Figure 10, a new record is added to the voucher number linking data in the sales DB. Also, as shown in Figure 10, journal data and voucher number linking data are generated in the accounting DB. As shown in Figure 10, the voucher number linking data in the sales DB and the voucher number linking data in the accounting DB contain the same linking voucher, "linking voucher Z," so it is possible to trace the link between the DBs by using this linking voucher.

[0055] (3) Additional attachment by journal entry Next, the accounting staff enters information about journal entry slip C by calling up the journal entry screen in correction mode in Figure 11, and also attaches an invoice and a request for approval. The details of adding attachments are explained below.

[0056] The approval category acquisition unit 102a acquires the approval category associated with the linked partner voucher number specified on the screen for correcting the linked partner voucher (journal entry input screen) from the journal data stored in the linked partner database (accounting DB).

[0057] Specifically, when "journal entry voucher C" is specified as the voucher number on the journal entry input screen shown in Fig. 11, the approval category acquisition unit 102a acquires "under approval" as the approval category linked to journal entry voucher C from the journal entry data shown again in the accounting DB in Fig. 11. In contrast, if the journal entry data in the accounting DB were as shown in Fig. 12, which is different from this example, the approval category acquisition unit 102a would acquire "approved" as the approval category linked to journal entry voucher C.

[0058] If the approval category acquired by the approval category acquisition unit 102a is a category indicating that final approval of the linked destination voucher has not yet been made (approval category of ``under approval''), the additional attachment storage unit 102b generates electronic voucher linking data including the linked destination voucher number and voucher identification data (electronic voucher Guid) for the additionally attached voucher and stores it in the linked destination database (accounting DB).

[0059] Specifically, when the approval category acquired by the approval category acquisition unit 102a is "under approval," the additional attachment storage unit 102b generates electronic voucher linking data (finance) including a record having the voucher number "Journal entry voucher C" and the electronic voucher Guid "GuidB" for the invoice, and a record having the voucher number "Journal entry voucher C" and the electronic voucher Guid "GuidC" for the approval request, as shown in Figure 11, and stores this in the accounting DB.

[0060] As a result, a state has been created in which the invoice or approval document and the delivery note are linked, with the following link: Invoice or approval document → Journal entry voucher C → Linked voucher Z → Purchase voucher A → Delivery note. In other words, the invoice and approval document generated in May can be linked to the delivery note generated in April.

[0061] Furthermore, file image data and file information data including a record for the approval request form are generated and stored in the accounting DB, as shown in Fig. 11. Then, a record for the invoice is generated and stored in the document image data and document information data in the document storage DB, as shown in Fig. 11.

[0062] If the approval category acquired by the approval category acquisition unit 102a is a category indicating that final approval of the linked destination voucher has already been given (approval category of "approved"), the error message display unit 102c displays an error message on the screen (journal entry input screen) to the effect that additional attachment of supporting documents for the linked destination voucher identified by the specified linked destination voucher number is not possible.

[0063] Specifically, if the approval category acquired by the approval category acquisition unit 102a is "approved," the error message display unit 102c displays an error message on the journal entry input screen, as shown in Figure 12, indicating that additional supporting documents cannot be attached to journal entry voucher C.

[0064] (4) The final record If purchase voucher B, linked voucher X, and journal voucher D are also registered in the same manner as described in (1) to (3), the records ultimately generated in the sales DB, accounting DB, and voucher storage DB will be as shown in Figures 13 to 15, respectively.

[0065] As explained above in section [4-1], the additional attachment work support device 100 according to this embodiment can support the work of linking a linked source voucher (in this example, purchase voucher A) with a supporting document (in this example, a delivery note) attached from a linked source database (in this example, the sales DB) to a linked destination database (in this example, the accounting DB) to generate a linked destination voucher (in this example, journal entry voucher C), and then attaching additional supporting documents (in this example, an invoice and a request for approval) to the linked destination voucher. This eliminates the need for the accounting staff to issue new red / black vouchers as in the past when a process that requires the attachment of additional supporting documents occurs or when supporting documents are omitted from attachment, thereby reducing costs and labor and eliminating operational errors.

[0066] [4-2. Specific examples of documentary evidence verification] This section explains specific examples of document verification.

[0067] (1) Creating a temporary table for identifying slip numbers (collaboration information acquisition) When the "Details Inquiry" button is pressed on the general ledger screen shown in FIG. 16, a temporary table for identifying slip numbers is generated as follows.

[0068] The temporary table generation unit 102d uses the linking slip number based on the slip number linking data stored in the link source database (sales DB) and the slip number linking data stored in the link destination database (accounting DB) to generate a slip number identification temporary table, which is a table including details that associate and hold the link source slip number and the link destination slip number. Specifically, it is as follows.

[0069] (A) First, as shown in (A) of Figure 17, the temporary table generation unit 102d adds a record whose financial document number and document number are both "Journal Entry Document C" and a record whose financial document number and document number are both "Journal Entry Document D" to the document number linking data in the accounting DB, and generates a temporary table (interim version) for document number identification.

[0070] (B) Next, the temporary table generation unit 102d copies the slip number identification temporary table (interim version) generated in the accounting DB into the sales DB, as shown in FIG. 17(B).

[0071] (C) Next, the temporary table generation unit 102d references the slip number linking data in the sales DB and traces back to the purchase slip, starting from the linking slip. Specifically, as shown in (C) of FIG. 17, the temporary table generation unit 102d references the slip number linking data in the sales DB and traces back to purchase slip A, starting from linking slip Z. Also, although not shown, the temporary table generation unit 102d references the slip number linking data in the sales DB and traces back to purchase slip B, starting from linking slip X. Note that this tracing continues until it reaches a record in the slip number linking data in the sales DB where "linked slip number = linked slip number."

[0072] (D) Next, the temporary table generation unit 102d updates the traced-back purchase voucher in (C) to the temporary table (interim version) for identifying voucher number generated in (B). Specifically, as shown in (D) of Fig. 17, the temporary table generation unit 102d adds the record of financial voucher number "Journal Entry Voucher C" and the traced-back voucher number "Purchase Voucher A" and the record of financial voucher number "Journal Entry Voucher D" and the traced-back voucher number "Purchase Voucher B" to the temporary table (interim version) for identifying voucher number in the sales DB, and generates a temporary table (final version) for identifying voucher number in the sales DB.

[0073] (E) Finally, the temporary table generation unit 102d copies the temporary table for identifying slip numbers (final version) generated in the sales DB in (D) into the accounting DB as shown in (E) of Figure 18. In this way, a temporary table for identifying slip numbers tracing back from the journal entry slip to the link source is completed.

[0074] The temporary table for identifying voucher numbers that is generated when multiple vouchers are aggregated and linked to an accounting database is shown in Figure 19. The temporary table for identifying voucher numbers shown in Figure 19 is an example of a case where purchase vouchers A, B, and C are aggregated into linked voucher Z to become journal voucher C.

[0075] (2) Display of ledger detail inquiry screen (obtaining attached information) When the "Details Inquiry" button is pressed on the general ledger screen shown in Figure 16, a temporary table for identifying document numbers is generated as explained in (1), and then the ledger details inquiry screen shown in Figure 20 is displayed, as explained below.

[0076] The confirmation candidate display unit 102e displays the details included in the temporary table for identifying slip numbers as confirmation candidates. In other words, the confirmation candidate display unit 102e displays the linking process for all slips displayed on the general ledger screen on the ledger detail inquiry screen.

[0077] Specifically, as shown in Fig. 21, if the slip number in the slip number identification temporary table corresponds to the system classification of "sales management" in the system classification information, the confirmation candidate display unit 102e acquires data from the electronic voucher linking data (sales), and if it corresponds to the system classification of "financial accounting" in the system classification information, the confirmation candidate display unit 102e acquires data from the electronic voucher linking data (finance).Then, the confirmation candidate display unit 102e displays the acquired data on the ledger detail inquiry screen.

[0078] (3) Obtaining supporting documents There are two ways to check the documents: displaying the supporting documents via the attachment list screen from the ledger detail inquiry screen, or displaying the supporting documents directly from the ledger detail inquiry screen. In either case, however, the supporting documents must be obtained in advance. Therefore, in this section (3), we will explain in detail how to obtain the supporting documents.

[0079] When a specific detail is selected from the details displayed in the confirmation candidate display unit 102e, the document identification data acquisition unit 102f acquires the linked source document number corresponding to the linked destination document number held by the selected specific detail from the temporary table for document number identification.

[0080] Specifically, when the details in lines 1 to 3 (details with financial document number "Journal Entry Voucher C") are selected on the ledger detail inquiry screen of Figure 20, the supporting document identification data acquisition unit 102f acquires "Purchase Voucher A," "Linkage Voucher Z," and "Journal Entry Voucher C" as document numbers corresponding to the selected financial document number "Journal Entry Voucher C" from the temporary table for document number identification shown in Figure 22.

[0081] Next, the voucher identification data acquisition unit 102f acquires the voucher identification data (electronic voucher Guid) and classification (regime classification) linked to the acquired source document number from the electronic voucher linking data stored in the source database (sales DB) or the destination database (accounting DB).

[0082] Specifically, the acquired voucher number "Purchase Voucher A" corresponds to the system classification "Sales Management" when referring to the system classification information in Figure 22. In this case, the voucher identification data etc. acquisition unit 102f acquires a record that has the voucher number "Purchase Voucher A" and the classification "Sales Management" from the electronic voucher linking data (Sales) in Figure 22. Then, the voucher identification data etc. acquisition unit 102f acquires the electronic voucher Guid "GuidA" and the system classification "Electronic Transaction" from the acquired record. The acquisition flow described in this paragraph is also shown in Figure 23 for reference.

[0083] Furthermore, since the acquired document number "Linked Document Z" does not exist in either the electronic voucher linking data (sales) or the electronic voucher linking data (finance), as shown in Figure 22, processing for "Linked Document Z" ends here.

[0084] Then, with reference to the system classification information in Fig. 22, the acquired "Journal Entry Voucher C" corresponds to the system classification "Financial Accounting", so in this case, the voucher identification data etc. acquisition unit 102f acquires two records that have "Journal Entry Voucher C" and the classification "Financial Accounting" from the electronic voucher linking data (Finance) in Fig. 22. Then, the voucher identification data etc. acquisition unit 102f acquires the electronic voucher Guid "GuidB" and the system classification "scanner saved" as well as the electronic voucher Guid "GuidC" and the system classification "Other" from the acquired records.

[0085] The voucher number, electronic document Guid, and system classification obtained from the temporary table for identifying voucher numbers through the processing up to this point can be summarized as follows. "Purchase slip A, Guid A, electronic transaction" "Journal entry slip C, GuidB, saved by scanner" "Journal entry voucher C, Guid C, etc."

[0086] If the category acquired by the voucher identification data etc. acquisition unit 102f is a category that means storing a file as a voucher (the system category of ``electronic transaction'' or ``scanner storage''), the voucher acquisition unit 102g acquires the file name of the voucher and the binary data of the voucher linked to the voucher identification data (electronic voucher Guid) acquired by the voucher identification data etc. acquisition unit 102f from the voucher data (voucher information data and voucher image data) stored in the voucher storage DB.

[0087] Specifically, for "Purchase slip A, Guid A, electronic transaction," the voucher acquisition unit 102g acquires the file name "Delivery note.pdf" linked to Guid A from the voucher information data, and acquires the data "File A binary data" linked to Guid A from the voucher image data, as shown in Figure 22. The acquisition flow described in this paragraph is also shown in Figure 23 for reference.

[0088] In addition, for "Journal entry slip C, Guid B, saved by scanner," the supporting document acquisition unit 102g acquires the file name "invoice.pdf" linked to Guid B from the supporting document information data, as shown in Figure 22, and acquires the data "file B binary data" linked to Guid B from the supporting document image data.

[0089] In contrast, if the classification acquired by the evidence identification data etc. acquisition unit 102f is a classification (the "other" system classification) that means that the file is stored as an other file rather than as a evidence, the evidence acquisition unit 102g acquires the file name and file binary data of the file linked to the evidence identification data (electronic evidence Guid) acquired by the evidence identification data etc. acquisition unit 102f from the file data (file information data and file image data) stored in the accounting DB.

[0090] Specifically, for "Journal entry voucher C, Guid C, etc.", the supporting document acquisition unit 102g acquires the file name "Approval request form.xlsx" linked to Guid C from the file information data, as shown in Figure 22, and acquires the data "File C binary data" linked to Guid C from the file image data.

[0091] The slip number, system classification, file name, and binary data obtained from the temporary table for identifying slip numbers through the processing up to this point can be summarized as follows: "Purchase slip A, electronic transaction, delivery note.pdf, file A binary data" "Journal entry slip C, scanned, invoice.pdf, file B binary data" "Journal entry slip C, Other, Approval document.xlsx, File C binary data"

[0092] (4) How to display supporting documents via the attachment list screen from the ledger detail inquiry screen When a specific detail is selected from the details displayed in the confirmation candidate display unit 102e, the file name list display unit 102h displays a list of file names of the supporting documents acquired by the supporting document acquisition unit 102g. In other words, the file name list display unit 102h allows the attachment files linked to the financial document number of the selected line to be checked in a list by matching them with the attachment source document number of the detail inquiry.

[0093] Specifically, when any of the details in the first to third rows (the detail with the financial document number "Journal Entry Document C") is selected on the ledger detail inquiry screen of Figure 20 and the "Attach Voucher" button is pressed, the file name list display unit 102h will display, on the attached file list screen, as shown in Figure 24, the file name acquired by the voucher acquisition unit 102g, the document number acquired from the temporary table for document number identification by the voucher identification data etc. acquisition unit 102f, and the system classification acquired by the voucher identification data etc. acquisition unit 102f.

[0094] Next, the evidence display unit 102i displays the file name of the evidence and the binary data of the evidence selected from the file names of the evidence displayed by the file name list display unit 102h, among the file names of the evidence and the binary data of the evidence acquired by the evidence acquisition unit 102g.

[0095] Specifically, when the details button for the third line (source document number "Purchase document A") among the "···" buttons (details buttons) on the attachment list screen shown in Figure 24 is pressed, the voucher display unit 102i displays the file name of the voucher for the third line (delivery note.pdf) and the binary data of the voucher (image of the delivery note) on the attachment details screen, as shown in Figure 25.

[0096] Although not shown, when the "···" button (details button) on the attachment list screen shown in Figure 24 is pressed, the details button for the first line (source document number "Journal entry document C") is pressed, the evidence display unit 102i displays the file name (request document.xlsx) and binary data of the file (image of the request document) for the first line on the attachment details screen; and when the details button for the second line (source document number "Journal entry document C") is pressed, the evidence display unit 102i displays the file name (invoice.pdf) and binary data of the voucher (image of the invoice) for the second line on the attachment details screen.

[0097] (5) How to display supporting documents directly from the ledger detail inquiry screen When a specific detail is selected from the details displayed in the confirmation candidate display unit 102e, the voucher display unit 102i displays the file name of the voucher acquired by the voucher display unit 102i and the binary data of the voucher. In other words, when the attached information of the linked source purchase voucher is selected and "Attached Voucher" is pressed, the voucher display unit 102i displays the voucher number of the purchase voucher, and on the other hand, when the attached information of the linked destination financial voucher is selected and "Attached Voucher" is pressed, the financial voucher number is displayed.

[0098] Specifically, when the "Attached Voucher" button is pressed while the detail in the third line (the detail with the attached source document number "Purchase Document A") is selected on the ledger detail inquiry screen of Figure 20, the voucher display unit 102i will display the file name of the voucher for the third line (delivery note.pdf) and the binary data of the voucher (image of the delivery note) on the attachment details screen, as shown in Figure 25.

[0099] Although not shown, on the ledger detail inquiry screen of Figure 20, when the "Attach Voucher" button is pressed while the first line of details (details of the attachment source document number "Journal Entry Voucher C") is selected, the voucher display unit 102i will display the file name of the file for the first line of details (request form.xlsx) and the binary data of the file (image of the request form) on the attachment details screen, and when the second line of details (details of the attachment source document number "Journal Entry Voucher C") is selected and the "Attach Voucher" button is pressed, the voucher display unit 102i will display the file name of the voucher for the second line of details (invoice.pdf) and the binary data of the voucher (image of the invoice) on the attachment details screen.

[0100] As explained above in this section [4-2], the additional attachment support device 100 according to this embodiment can support the task of checking the supporting document (in this example, a delivery note) attached to a linked source document (in this example, purchase document A) linked to a linked destination document (in this example, journal entry document C). This allows the person in charge (in this example, the accounting person) to easily check, on the linked destination database (in this example, the accounting DB) side, the supporting document (in this example, a delivery note) linked to the document (in this example, purchase document A) linked from the linked source database (in this example, the sales DB) to the linked destination database (in this example, the accounting DB). This reduces costs and labor and also eliminates checking errors.

[0101] The additional attachment support device 100 according to this embodiment can be rephrased as the document verification support device 100, focusing on the function of supporting the document verification work explained in this section [4-2].
