Description

  The present invention relates to a computer system (hereinafter referred to as a “journal analysis center system”) that performs processing for providing a journal analysis service related to accounting for a user of a terminal having a browser function. Journals on the Web screen by ordinary users can be sent to the journal analysis center system by taking vouchers such as receipts and receipts photographed at the journal, etc., and sending the electronic data (hereinafter referred to as “voucher data”) to the journal analysis center system. The present invention relates to a journal analysis center system capable of confirming detailed information and importing journal data into accounting software owned by an accounting software owner (registered user).

Application software for supporting financial accounting work (hereinafter referred to as accounting software) has been used by corporations and individuals. Accounting business software, for example, displays transaction input screens and input auxiliary screens such as various books and slips and user-defined books, "Accounting data input support function" to support the input of accounting data, Automatic journalizing function that automatically journals transactions entered from the transaction input screen, etc., and "Accounting document creation function" that creates electronic data for various financial accounting documents based on the entered transaction data. It is composed of a program and data for causing a computer to realize the accounting operation support function (see, for example, paragraph [0023] of Patent Document 1).
Here, the “journal processing” and the “entry form of journal entry data” in the conventional accounting software as described above will be outlined.

In accounting business software, when generating journal data for an actual bookkeeping transaction, for example, the transaction data input from the transaction input screen is obtained, and journal processing is performed based on the transaction data. And various electronic documents for financial accounting are created based on the journal data that is the processing result. User data input forms include, for example, the type of transaction displayed on the transaction input screen (cash, deposit, accounts receivable, accounts payable, etc.), transaction type (sales / collection, purchase / payment, borrowing / repayment, etc.) The transaction name and the transaction date and amount, and the transaction data is input, and various books and slips prepared in advance as standard, or a user customized book, etc. There are a form in which necessary information is input on the screen and a form in which information of each item is input on the screen of the journal diary which is a book for recording all transactions (for example, paragraph [0016] in Patent Document 1 is used. See>
In addition to Patent Document 1, many proposals have been made for automatic journalizing of actual transactions that have been carried out, but the data to be journalized is generally manually entered from the input screen by the user. (For example, see Patent Documents 2, 3, and 4).

  On the other hand, a technique has also been proposed in which an OCR (Optical Character Reader) device is used as data entry means for journal entries, and the contents of slips and books printed on paper are read by the OCR device for journalizing (for example, Patent Document 5). , 6).

  For example, Patent Document 5 includes accounting information read by an OCR device and accounting information obtained from an electronic banking system as journal entries, and items related to journal entries (date, counterparty, abstract) from the input accounting information. , Deposit amount, withdrawal amount) and journalizing processing is disclosed. Specifically, in Patent Document 5, one or more items are determined from the description contents (accounting information) of the slip read by the OCR device, and items stored in the history database (processed as correct journals in the past). Item) and the item to be processed this time (judgment) (judgment) is judged, and the user can easily select an account item by displaying a list of journal patterns that can be selected in descending order of the match rate. I am doing so. Further, this Patent Document 5 discloses that learning is performed by feeding back a journal result confirmed by a user to a history database so that more accurate journaling can be performed.

JP 2006-285710 A JP 2003-208503 A JP 2001-236354 A JP 2001-167221 A JP 2007-304643 A JP 2004-246575 A

  As described above, in a system that supports financial accounting work, in addition to accounting information manually entered from the input screen by the user and accounting information obtained from an electronic banking system, the paper is used on paper. It has also been proposed to read the contents of written vouchers (receipts, receipts, slips, books, etc.) with an OCR device and make a journal for the transaction indicated on the voucher. In addition, as disclosed in Patent Document 5, a method is also proposed in which a journal similar to a journal input in the past is extracted from history data storing journal results and the journal of the transaction is inferred. Yes.

  However, the data learned in Patent Document 5 stores journal results based on a journal pattern selected by a user (individual or employee in a company) from a list display of journal patterns of past transactions similar to the transaction. The range of learning is the range of knowledge possessed by individual users (or employees in the company). Therefore, it is not always possible to perform more accurate journal entry by repeatedly using the journal entry system. In other words, for users who do not have specialized knowledge about accounting such as bookkeeping, the journal pattern learned based on the judgment of the person is not highly reliable. Journal entries may occur.

  Further, in Patent Document 5 and Patent Document 6, the use of an OCR device as a data input means for journaling can provide an effect of saving labor of data input by humans. (OCR device, main device, etc.) is required, and there is an inconvenience that data obtained cannot be input on the spot. For example, it is inconvenient to take a receipt or receipt issued at a taxi, a store, etc. to the workplace or home, check the journal, and enter data.

Enter information (see "User Information for Registered User" above) and perform user registration. On the other hand, the user 1a who does not desire user registration moves to step S12. Here, the user 1a who has registered as a user is treated as a registered user 1b by logging in using the registered personal authentication information (user ID, login password), and the journal past history browsing service. Or the journal data import service to the accounting software 3 owned by the person can be used (step S11).

When the user 1 (general user 1a or registered user 1b) acquires voucher data using a predetermined data fetching means (step S12), and requests a journal analysis service for the voucher data from the journal analysis center 100 Transmits the voucher data stored in the storage unit of the user terminal 2 to the journal analysis server 10 via the Web 30 (step S13).
The service request accepting means 11 of the journal analysis server 10 receives the voucher data from the user terminal 2, and in the case of the journal analysis request by login using the personal authentication information, it is processed as a journal analysis request by the registered user 1b thereafter. (Step S21). Subsequently, the journal analysis server 10 analyzes the voucher data by the journal element extraction means 12 and extracts the journal element information as text format data (step S22).

  The recommended journal presentation unit 13 of the journal analysis server 10 executes the following journal processing based on the journal element information extracted in step S22.

  The recommended journal presentation means 13 first determines whether or not user information is registered in the user database 26 (step S23). If it is determined that the user information is registered, the extracted journal element information (product) Name, purchase destination, payment method, etc.) and the past history of the registered user 1b of the journal analysis request source recorded in the history database 25, and determines whether there is a similar proof in the past history (step) S24).

  If it is determined in step S24 that there is a similar voucher in the past history, the recommended journal presenting means 13 records similar voucher journals (all journals of similar vouchers among the journals used by the person in the past). If it is extracted from the database 25 (step S25) and it is determined in step S24 that there is no similarity proof, or if it is determined in step S23 that user information is not registered in the user database 26, Based on the above-mentioned “number of persons” information indicating the number of journal processing persons for each journal pattern, journals frequently used by the user (journals in which account items with a large number of users are set) are extracted (step S26).

  Then, the recommended journal presentation unit 13 displays the contents of the journal extracted in step S25 or S26 on the Web screen G of the requesting user terminal 2 as a journal result (journal data) D2 (step S27).

  The user 1 who has requested the journal analysis service in the step S13 checks the journal entry contents by referring to the journal result D2 (step S14), and corrects the journal data on the Web screen G if there is a correction. If the user wants to end the operation, log out or close the Web screen G to end the operation on the user terminal 2 side (step S15).

  On the other hand, the journal analysis server 10 determines whether or not the journal data has been corrected by the user 1 in step S15 (step S28). If it is determined that the journal data has been corrected and the confirmation has been completed, the learning means 14 searches whether or not the journal element modified in step S15 is registered in the journal advisor database 20, and if it is not registered, information on the journal element is searched for the corresponding journal element in the journal advisor database 20. New journal element information is learned by additionally registering it in the user shared table (step S29).

  Subsequently, when the requesting user 1 is the registered user 1b, the journal analysis server 10 generates a journal history based on the journal result D2, and associates it with the user ID of the registered user 1b in the history database 25. (Step S30). Then, the journal analysis server 10 determines whether or not the user information is registered in the user database 26 (step S31), and when it is not registered, ends the journal analysis service processing.

  On the other hand, if it is determined in step S31 that the user information is registered, the journal analysis server 10 registers the information registered in the user database 26 (information indicating whether or not the accounting software product is owned). , It is determined whether or not the user 1b is a user of accounting software (step S32). If the user 1b is determined to be a user of accounting software, the accounting software cooperation processing means 16 receives data from the user terminal 2. In response to the take-in request (step S16), take-in data of the journal data for the voucher is generated (step S33), and the generated take-in data (journal file D3) is transmitted to the requesting user terminal 2 for journal entry. The analysis service process is terminated (step S34).

  On the other hand, the accounting software 3 installed on the user terminal 2 side imports the journal file D3 transmitted from the journal analysis server 10 into the storage unit, and ends the journal data import process for the voucher. Thereafter, the accounting software 3 creates electronic data of financial accounting documents using the journal file D3.

  Next, operations on the user terminal 2 side and main screens provided by the journal analysis server 10 will be described in detail along the flow of the flowchart of FIG. 10 with reference to specific screen examples. Note that the processing that has already been described will be omitted or simplified.

(4-2) User terminal side operation example and Web screen display example FIG. 10 shows a flow from when the user uploads the voucher data to refer to the journal. The flow is not limited to the order shown in FIG. For example, the order of step S42 and step S43 may be reversed, and the procedure of step S42 is performed after step S46 (electronic data of another voucher is created at that time), and the process proceeds to step S47. Anyway.

  The user 1 first obtains a voucher for a paper medium such as a receipt or a receipt (collects vouchers for each employee in the case of a company) (step S41), and takes in arbitrary data such as a portable terminal with a camera function or a scanner. Using the means, a voucher data file obtained by digitizing the voucher is created for each voucher (step S42).

  When using the journal analysis service, the user terminal 2 accesses the website 30 of the journal analysis center 100 (step S43), and in the case of the registered user 1b (in the case of “Yes” in step S44), the Web Log in by entering authentication information (user ID, login password) from the login dialog on the screen. If the login authentication is successful, a My Page dedicated to the registered user is displayed, and thereafter, an operation is performed on the Web page of the My Page displaying the information for the user (Step S45).

  On the other hand, in the case of the general user 1a (in the case of “No” in step S44), the operation is performed on the Web screen of the top page thereafter.

  When the user 1 (general user 1a or registered user 1b) clicks the upload tab provided on the Web screen, the screen is switched to the “upload screen G1” shown in FIG. Instruct to upload voucher data.

  In this embodiment, when a user receives a journal analysis service, one or a plurality of voucher data is uploaded to a dedicated Web page that is a temporary storage area for voucher data on the journal analysis center 100 side, and thereafter In accordance with the transmission instruction, the uploaded voucher data is transmitted to the journal analysis server 10.

  As shown in the example of FIG. 11, an upload button B11, a transmission button B12, and a journal reference button B13 are provided on the upload screen G1, and one or a plurality of user 1 stored in the storage unit of the user terminal 2 are provided. When the user selects and designates the voucher data file and presses the upload button B11, the designated voucher data is uploaded to a dedicated Web page. This uploading operation may be repeated a plurality of times, and all the uploaded voucher data is stored in the data storage (the dedicated Web page) on the journal analysis center 100 side (step S46).

  Then, if the voucher data upload operation is completed (in the case of “Yes” in step S47), the user 1 presses the transmission button B12 on the upload screen G1. By the operation of this transmission button B12, the uploaded voucher data is transmitted to the journal analysis server 10 in the journal analysis center 100, and the journal analysis processing by the journal analysis server 10 is executed. At that time, it is possible to select and specify individual files of the voucher data without transmitting all the uploaded voucher data, and to individually transmit the voucher data, or to transmit a plurality of voucher data together ( Step S48).

  In step S48, whether the voucher data has been sent or not sent can be visually recognized on the upload screen G1 on which the file name list of the uploaded voucher data is displayed. 11, for example, the uploaded file is yellow, the transmitted file is orange, and the journal file is blue, so that the statuses can be displayed on the screen G <b> 1 so that the statuses can be distinguished by color coding or status notation. I have to. Further, search is possible for each status, and the voucher data that has been transmitted and the voucher data that has been completed can be checked in a list by the search operation.

  Note that the voucher data file (image data and text format data file) stored on the dedicated Web page is stored for a certain size in the case of the registered user 1b, and in the case of the general user 1a. It is automatically deleted after confirming journal entries described later. It is also possible for the user to delete it.

  When the voucher data is transmitted to the journal analysis server 10 by the operation of the send button B12 in step S48, the journal analysis server 10 (the journal element extraction unit 12 and the recommended journal presentation unit 13) analyzes the received voucher data. Journal is performed, and a Web screen G showing the journal results is displayed on the display unit of the user terminal 2. The user 1 checks the journal entry for the voucher by referring to the journal entry example displayed on the Web screen G (step S49).

  The following is a specific example of a journal reference screen provided by the journal analysis server 10 (screen examples in FIGS. 12 to 15) and a specific example of a journal confirmation screen (screen example in FIG. 16) for the journal confirmation operation in step S49. Will be described in detail.

  FIG. 12 shows an example of the journal entry reference screen (top page) G2 displayed as the Web screen G in the above step S49. When the user 1 transmits the voucher data, even the general user 1a is registered user 1b. Even so, a transition is made to this journal entry reference screen G2.

  The journal reference screen G2 displays the contents of the voucher data transmitted by itself (in this example, the contents of each item G21 of the journal element information extracted by analyzing the voucher data) in a list. Check the voucher data sent by. If there is voucher data that has been sent in error, a check column for “deletion” provided corresponding to the detail display portion of each voucher (□ column at the right end of the detail display portion in this example) Click to place a check mark, and then press “Delete” button B23. By this operation, the corresponding voucher data stored in the dedicated web page is deleted.

  On the journal reference screen G2, in addition to the “delete execution button” B23, a “deleted data reference button” B21 for referring to deleted data and a “journal created data” for referring to journal created data Reference button "B22" is provided.

  In the recommended journal presenting means 13 of the journal analysis server 10, when a voucher is selected by a click operation of a detail display section (for example, a detail display section indicated by symbol G22 in FIG. 12), the journal result for the transaction of the selected voucher is selected. Transition to the screen where is displayed. At that time, the journal reference screen G3 of FIG. 13 is displayed for the general user 1a, and the journal reference screen G5 shown in FIG. 14 is displayed for the registered user 1b.

  First, the case of the general user 1a will be described.

  FIG. 13 shows an example of the journal entry screen G3 after the detail selection by the general user 1a. In the journal reference screen G3, as shown in FIG. 13, the content of “recommended journal” is displayed in the recommended journal display section G31 provided corresponding to each item column displayed in the journal entry format of double entry bookkeeping. Is done.

  The "recommended journal" mentioned here is a journal recommended by the Journal Analysis Center for the user. In this embodiment, a suitable item (credit account, debit) as a transaction item shown in a voucher such as a receipt. This refers to journal entries in which a course with the largest number of users of all users is set as a recommended course when there are a plurality of candidates (accounts or supplementary courses). The recommended subject is a subject obtained based on the “number of people” recorded in the mapping table 23. In the present embodiment, the recommended subject is the subject with the largest number of users.

  And in this Embodiment, while presenting the said recommended journal to a user, a user can select the 2nd or subsequent subject in order with the largest number of users of all users (the order of the number of users). It is set as the form to present.

  Here, an example of a user operation will be described.

  The user confirms the contents of the journal by looking at the journal reference screen G3 showing the recommended journal.

  If there are items to be corrected (amount, subject, description, tax classification, etc.), click on the correction location to correct the content.

  In the example of the journal reference screen G3 in FIG. 13, the product “XX Standard 13” shown in the description column is accounting software, and “credit expendable” is presented as a credit account item presented as “recommended journal”. It shows that there are the most users. If you want to modify the account item (“Consumables Expenses”), according to the click operation of that part, the other account items that match the product are ordered by the number of users (“Software” in this example) The screen G4 (referred to as a “subject candidate display screen” for convenience of explanation) displayed as a recommended candidate correction candidate is displayed as shown in FIG. 13 in the order of “office supplies costs” and “miscellaneous expenses”. When the user selects an account item that the user wants to use from the list of the candidate item display screen G4, the journal reference screen G3 is returned to and changed to the selected account item. For example, in the example of FIG. 13, when it is desired to change “consumables cost” to “software”, when “software” is selected, the credit account item is changed from “consumables cost” to “software”.

  Clicking on the check column in the journal display part G31 (in this example, the □ column on the left side of each line where account items and supplementary items are displayed) puts a check mark, and the “business owner loan” or The account item has been changed to "Business Borrower", and if it is unchecked, it will return to its original state.

  Next, the case of the registered user 1b will be described.

  FIG. 14 shows an example of the journal reference screen G5 after the detail selection by the registered user 1b. In the case of the registered user 1b, the voucher is selected by clicking on the detail display section indicated by reference numeral G22 in FIG. Then, the display changes to the journal entry screen G5 in FIG.

  In the case of the registered user 1b, the content of “recommended journal” is displayed on the recommended journal display unit G31 on the My Page dedicated to the registered user, as with the general user 1a. Hereinafter, differences from the general user 1a will be described.

  In the case of the registered user 1b, as described above, the past history of the person's journal stored in the history database 25 can be browsed, and the journal file D3 generated from the voucher data D1 is taken into the accounting software 3. Is possible.

  In the case of the registered user 1b, if there are items to be corrected, clicking the correction part on the journal reference screen G5 displays the number of other journals (journals other than recommended journals) used by the person in the past ( For convenience of explanation, it is called “first subject candidate display portion” and a display portion of the number of other journal entries used by a user other than the user (referred to as “second subject candidate display portion” for convenience of explanation) is provided. Transition to screen G5.

  When the first subject candidate display section is clicked, a screen G7 is displayed in which other journals used by the person in the past are displayed as a list of recommended subject correction candidates in descending order of the number of times the person has used in the past. When the second subject candidate display section is clicked, a screen (not shown) is displayed in which other journals used by users other than the principal are displayed in a list. When the registered user 1b selects an account item to be used from the list displayed on the screen G7, the registered user 1b returns to the journal reference screen G3, and the selected account item is reflected in the recommended journal. It should be noted that both the list of other journals used by the user in the past and the list of other journals used by users other than the user may be displayed simultaneously on the same screen G7.

  Next, an operation when the account item that the user wants to use does not exist in the list will be described.

  If the account item that the user wants to use does not exist in the list, for example, if the merchandise name described in the receipt is not registered in the merchandise master 21, a journal reference screen that presents the contents of the recommended journal (FIG. 13). In the general user screen G3 or the registered user screen G5 in FIG. 14, for example, “not applicable” is displayed in red on the display section of the account item (see screen example G8 in FIG. 15).

  Then, when the “not applicable” portion is clicked, a journal advisor screen G9 shown in FIG. 15 is displayed, so that the user 1 can select any one of “category search”, “keyword search”, and “question search”. Using the search function, the account item is searched from the account item group registered in advance in the item master 22 and determined.

  For example, in “category search” and “keyword search”, a list of subjects hit by the search is displayed, and user 1 selects an account item from the list. The “question search” function is a function for searching in a conversation format between the user and the computer. The user 1 answers the question from the computer, and the account item is selected.

  When the account item is determined by using the journal advisor function, the journal reference screen G5 in FIG. 14 (journal reference screen G3 in FIG. 13 in the case of the general user 1a) is returned, and the determined account item is the journal entry. This is reflected in the display section of the account item on the reference screen (general user screen G3 in FIG. 13 or registered user screen G5 in FIG. 14).

  Also, when there is no account item to be used in the list of recommended journals and other journals, the account item is determined using the journal advisor function. At that time, in the case of the general user 1a, the “use other account item” button on the subject candidate display screen G4 in FIG. 13 is clicked, and in the case of the registered user 1b, the first subject candidate in FIG. When the “Use other account item” button on the display unit or the second item candidate display unit G6 is clicked, a transition is made to the journal advisor screen G9 in FIG.

  Next, an operation when the registered user 1b imports the journal file into the accounting software 3 will be described.

  The registered user 1b clicks the “Generate Journal File” button provided on the journal reference screen G5 in FIG. By this operation, the journal file D3 is generated by the accounting software cooperation processing means 16, the journal file D3 is stored in the data storage of the journal analysis server 10 in association with the user ID, and the journal confirmation screen G10 of FIG. Is displayed.

  If you want to finally confirm the contents of a journal on this journal confirmation screen G10 and delete the data of that journal, click on the journal display and it will be clicked from the journal reference screen (top page) G2 in FIG. The voucher data corresponding to the journal entry is deleted.

  In addition, as a result of confirming the contents of the journal, if the contents are acceptable, clicking the “save button” on the journal confirmation screen G10 causes the data displayed on the journal confirmation screen G10 by the journal history accumulating means 15 to be displayed. Is entered in the history database 25 which is the data storage of the journal analysis server 10 in association with the user ID.

  When the user 1b imports into the accounting software 3, the accounting software 3 of the journal file D3 that has not been imported among the journal files D3 stored in the history database 25 by the operation on the user terminal 2 side. Is taken in.

  Here, the taking-in operation will be described with reference to FIG.

  FIG. 17 shows an example of a display screen of the accounting software 3 installed in the user terminal 2. When the “Journal import button” B20 in the menu display part of the display screen G20 is clicked, the journal analysis server 10 is informed. The journal file data import request is sent.

  When the data import request is received, the accounting software cooperation processing means 16 of the journal analysis server 10 reads the journal file D3 corresponding to the user ID of the requesting registered user 1b from the data storage, and requests the journal file D3. Transmit to the original user terminal 2.

  The accounting software 3 on the user terminal 2 side imports the received journal file D3 into the storage unit, and uses the journal file D3 to create electronic data of financial accounting documents.

  FIG. 18 shows a specific example of the accounting software 30 having a function of coordinating with the journal analysis server 10. For example, “Yayo Accounting (registered trademark) All Series 3a” sold by the present applicant, “Report 3b” is the accounting software 3 described above.

  As shown in FIG. 18, in the case of a registered user 1 b who owns accounting software 3, electronic data 5 of a voucher such as a photographed receipt 5 a or a receipt 5 b for direct debit is transmitted from the user terminal 2 to the journal analysis center 100. Then, by importing the journal file D3 generated on the journal analysis center 100 side into the accounting software 3, electronic data of financial accounting documents can be created from various vouchers recorded on the paper medium.

  Next, journal processing in the case of providing general journals will be described with reference to FIGS. 20 to 21 along the flow of the flowchart of FIG. Note that the processing that has already been described will be omitted or simplified.

(4-3) Journal Processing when General Journal is Provided The journal element extraction unit 12 of the journal analysis server 10 recognizes the character information group recorded in the image data of the receipt 5 received from the user terminal 2. 20 is converted into text data composed of items as shown in FIG.

  FIG. 20 shows a configuration example of the text data D1a after the conversion process (journal element information extracted by the journal element extraction unit 12 from the voucher data D1). Items # 2 to # 11 in FIG. Each element of journal element information extracted from a voucher such as 5. The items to be extracted are different between the registered user 1b and the general user 1a (non-registered user), and the items indicated by “◯” in the “registered user” and “non-registered user” fields in FIG. This is the user's extraction item. In addition, when the content of the item is not recorded in the voucher, information indicating that the item is not applicable is set. Note that the item # 10 (phone number of the purchaser) in FIG. 20 is used when automatically generating a summary character string. For example, the journal analysis server 10 searches for information such as a purchaser name from the telephone number and reflects the obtained information in the contents of the summary or associates it with a user ID for history management of registered users. (Such as the telephone number and purchaser name) are stored in a database (step S51).

  In determining the credit account item, the recommended journal presentation means 13 collates the purchase method (payment method) in the journal element information D1a extracted in step S51 with the payment method in the product master 21 (step S52). Then, an account item corresponding to the matched payment method is obtained from the payment method master 24 (see FIG. 21), and the account item is determined as a credit account item (step S53).

  On the other hand, when determining the debit account item, the recommended journal presentation means 13 collates the purchased product name in the journal element information D1a with the product name in the product master 21 (step S54) and is shown in the receipt 5. It is determined whether or not the product specified by the product name is in the product master 21 (step S55). When it is determined that the product is in the product master 21, the account item with the largest number of users is selected from the mapping master 23 among a plurality of account items (debit account items) that match the product group to which the product belongs. Is selected based on usage information of all users, and the selected account item, in other words, “Account item with the largest number of users” is presented to the general user 1a who is the non-registered user 1b. (Step S56).

  Subsequently, the recommended journal presentation means 13 generates a journal based on the credit account item determined in step S53, the debit account item determined as the recommended item in step S56, and the journal element information D1a extracted in step S51 (step S51). S57).

  On the other hand, if it is determined in step S55 that the merchandise shown in the receipt 5 is not in the merchandise master 21, the debit account item is set as “not applicable” (step S58), and the credit account item determined in step S53. The journal is generated based on the journal element information D1a extracted in step S51 (step S59).

  Then, by setting and displaying the journal generated in step S57 or S59 on the journal reference screen G3 in FIG. 13, the journal of the recommended journal (the journal in which the debit account item with the largest number of users is set) is displayed. An example is presented to the general user 1a.

  Further, the recommended journal presenting means 13 is, for example, in accordance with the click operation of the debit account item (the recommended item correction operation) in the above-mentioned recommended journal entry example, as shown in the screen G4 in FIG. Display a list of debit accounts in journals used other than journals, and set the debit account selected from the list as a corrected debit account item in the journal entry example of the recommended journal for general user 1a. Display (step S60).

  Specifically, in the above-described steps S54 to S57 and S60, the recommended journal presentation unit 13 selects a product group corresponding to the product name included in the journal element information extracted from the voucher data D1 by the journal element extraction unit 12 from the product master 21. The account item with the largest number of users of all users in the mapping table 23 corresponding to the product group is used as the recommended item for the debit account item, and the recommended item is used for all users. In the example, a journal entry is automatically generated with the selected recommended item as a debit account item and the journal reference screen G3 showing the journal as a recommended journal is analyzed. The information is presented on the display unit of the user terminal 2 that requested the service, and the journal pattern in the mapping table 23 is used. It is to update the translation number of people.

  When the user corrects the recommended item, the recommended journal presenting unit 13 adds the journal element information extracted by the journal element extracting unit 12 in accordance with the debit account item click operation (recommended item correction operation). For the product group to which the product specified by the included product name belongs, the account item with the second largest number of users among the account items in the mapping table 23 corresponding to the product group is the recommended item. It is presented as a correction candidate on the display unit of the user terminal 2 that is the requester of the journal analysis service, and the recommended journal is corrected using the account item selected by the user from the correction candidates as a debit account item.

  Next, journalizing processing in the case of providing history data to a registered user will be described with reference to FIG. 23 along the flow of the flowchart of FIG. In the flowchart of FIG. 22, the same step number as the flowchart of FIG. 19 is assigned to the same process as the journal process in the case of providing a general journal, and the description is omitted.

(4-4) Journal Processing when Historical Data is Provided to Registered User When the user who requested the journal analysis service is the registered user 1b, the recommended journal presenting means 13 is shown in the receipt 5 in step S55 of FIG. When it is determined that the product to be stored is in the product master 21, it is determined whether or not the product group to which the product belongs is in the history master (history database) 25 (step S56A). Selects from the history master 25 a debit account item having the highest usage frequency for the requesting user itself based on the usage frequency information of the requesting user, in other words, the requesting user 1b is now registered. The most frequently used account item ”is determined as the“ recommended item ”to be presented to the requesting registered user 1b (step S56B).

  Then, a journal is generated based on the credit account determined in step S53, the selected debit account determined as a recommended item in step S56B, and the journal element information D1a extracted in step S51 (step S57A), and the generated journal is generated. Is set and displayed on the journal reference screen G5 in FIG. 14 to present a journal entry example of the recommended journal to the registered user 1b.

  Furthermore, the recommended journal presentation means 13 responds, for example, to the requesting registered user as shown in the screen G6 in FIG. 14 in response to a debit account item click operation (recommended item correction operation) in the above-mentioned recommended journal entry example. The number of journals used by 1b in the past other than the recommended journals ("first other journals") and journals used by users other than the registered user 1b other than the recommended journals ("second other journals") And the number of entries).

  Then, according to the click operation of those number display sections, as shown in the screen G7 in FIG. 14, the list of debit account items in the “first other journal” (the highest frequency of use is the second or later). List of debit account items that show as a candidate for correction of recommended items), or a list of debit account items in "Second Other Journals" (other account items used by users other than the principal) List of debit account items shown as candidates for correction), and display the debit account selected from those lists as a corrected debit account item in the journal entry example of the recommended journal for the registered user 1b. (Step S60A).

  On the other hand, if it is determined in step S56A that the product group to which the product belongs does not exist in the history master 25, the process proceeds to step S58.

  Specifically, in the above-described steps S54 to S57A and S60A, the recommended journal presentation unit 13 recommends that the journal entry extraction unit 12 provides the voucher data when the user who requests the journal analysis service is the registered user 1b. A merchandise group corresponding to the merchandise name included in the journal element information extracted from D1 is obtained from the merchandise master 21, and the debit having the highest frequency of use among the account items in the history database 25 corresponding to the merchandise group. The account item is set as a recommended item, and the recommended item is selected from the past history in the history database 25 based on the own usage frequency information (information of the “number of times” in the history database 25), and the selected recommended item is debit account item. The journal entry screen G5 showing the journal as a recommended journal is automatically generated as a journal analysis service. While presenting on the display unit of the user terminal 2 of Motomemoto, and to update the journal number by the journal pattern in the database of registered customers (history database 25).
