Solution Overview

Problem

Conventional methods for generating and maintaining organizational charts are cumbersome, labor-intensive, and lack flexibility, especially in large and rapidly changing organizations, and do not leverage advanced technological developments like cloud computing and AI.

Innovation Solution

A distributed organizational data construction method that distributes the work of constructing organizational data among a large number of people, using a backend system with data, transceiver, and matching modules to generate and update organizational charts efficiently.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Quantity of substance

If conventional methods are used to collect and integrate data from various departments, then organizational data can be gathered, but the complexity of integrating data with different formats and structures increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveorganizational dataVSAvoiddata integration complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Quantity of substanceVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent segments the organizational data into standardized units with consistent fields (current level field, superior level field, etc.). Each department's data is collected as standardized organizational unit data, which simplifies the integration process by ensuring all data follows the same structure regardless of its origin department.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The patent transforms data from various formats into a standardized parameter structure. By changing the data representation to a uniform format with specific fields, the system eliminates the complexity of handling different data structures while maintaining the quantity and quality of organizational data.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #35Parameter changes

2Adaptability or versatility

If manual updating is used when organizational structure changes, then information can be updated, but errors and delays increase

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveorganizational structure flexibilityVSAvoiddata accuracy
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSReliability

Solution Approach 1:

The system enables self-service data updates where employees can independently fill in their own organizational unit data through the terminal device. This eliminates manual updating by HR personnel and reduces both errors and delays, while maintaining high reliability through automated data collection and validation processes.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #25Self-service

Solution Approach 2:

The system implements automated feedback mechanisms where uploaded data is automatically validated and processed. The backend receives data from employees, validates it against organizational structure rules, and updates the organizational chart automatically, providing immediate feedback and eliminating manual review delays.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #23Feedback

3Productivity

If conventional methods are used to draw and maintain organizational charts, then charts can be generated, but the time and labor required increase significantly for large companies

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveorganizational chart generation efficiencyVSAvoidtime for chart construction
Core Design Contradiction:
ProductivityVSLoss of time

Solution Approach 1:

The patent replaces manual mechanical processes of drawing and maintaining organizational charts with automated electronic systems. The backend automatically processes organizational unit data, matches relationships between employees, and generates organizational charts without human intervention, dramatically reducing time and labor requirements.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #28Mechanics substitution (Replace mechanical system)

Solution Approach 2:

The system transforms the manual chart construction process into an automated parameter-based generation process. By changing from manual drawing to automated data processing and visualization, the system efficiently handles large companies with numerous employees while minimizing time loss.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #35Parameter changes

4Adaptability or versatility

If conventional organizational charts are used, then structure can be represented, but flexibility for quick adjustments is limited

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveorganizational chart flexibilityVSAvoidtime for adjustments
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSLoss of time

Solution Approach 1:

The patent implements a dynamic organizational chart system where the structure can be quickly adjusted by updating the database with new organizational unit data. When employees transfer or departments change, the system automatically reflects these changes in real-time, providing flexibility without time loss for adjustments.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #15Dynamics

Solution Approach 2:

The system enables self-service updates where employees can report their own position changes, and the backend automatically updates the organizational chart. This eliminates the need for manual chart redrawing and provides immediate flexibility for organizational adjustments.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #25Self-service

AI summary

The disclosure describes a distributed organizational data construction method and an organizational data construction backend that can distribute the work of constructing organizational data to be done by a large number of people and make it easy to sign leave request forms. The organizational data construction backend generates an organizational chart and includes: a data module for generating organizational unit data, wherein each of organizational unit data includes one current level field and one superior level field; and a transceiver module for transmitting the organizational unit data to work devices and for receiving the plural filled-in organizational unit data, wherein the plurality of filled-in organizational unit data are transmitted by the work devices; and a matching module for matching the current level fields and the superior level fields of the filled-in organizational unit data to generate an organizational chart.
