DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a schedule management automatic planning method for managing business and private use.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, for work schedule management using a computer, many schedule software called a scheduler have been circulated, and these have been installed on a computer and used.

[0003]

However, generally, conventional schedule software simply inputs a schedule and displays a schedule on a screen, or simply activates an alarm when a due date is reached. It was something.

[0004] Therefore, it is necessary to input a schedule, and a lot of time and labor have been spent on the work.

[0005] In addition, simply displaying the schedule table on the screen, when the user notices that he / she is not always paying attention to the schedule, is nearing the date of the schedule and is not enough to complete the scheduled work by the date of the schedule. There was no time.

When an alarm is activated on a due date, the alarm is not activated until the due date, so that when the alarm is activated, there is a case in which there is no time to process scheduled work.

[0007] Further, in the case where business management is performed on a network by using general-purpose schedule software, there is a similar problem as described above for an administrator who checks a schedule input by each person in charge through the network.

When the schedule cannot be maintained and a work delay occurs, the schedule for unprocessed parts is reviewed, but the same problem may be repeated.

Therefore, in order to solve the above-mentioned problems, the present invention automatically prepares a schedule, recognizes in advance that the date of the schedule is approaching, and furthermore, even if it is desired to keep the schedule, the unprocessed portion is not processed. It is an object of the present invention to provide a schedule management automatic planning method that enables automatic change of all schedules.

BEST MODE FOR CARRYING OUT THE INVENTION A preferred embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings, taking as an example work schedule management relating to work from contract to start of construction in an apartment building.

FIG. 1 is a block diagram schematically showing the flow of work types related to work from contract to start of construction when constructing an apartment. After the contract 1, a three-party greeting (construction, sales, mediation) 2 is made, and various applications 3 and construction confirmation application 4, loan application 5 and loan application formal permission 6, order preparation 7 and order 8, groundbreak festival 9, etc. It is advanced in parallel by another route (A to D), and reaches the start of construction 10. The period until the start of construction 10 is usually at least 25 days from the contract. For each operation, a predetermined number of days is determined in advance, and a schedule is set.

For example, a three-party greeting 2 is within 7 days from the contract date 1 to 7 days, various applications such as an application for conversion to farmland 3 are three-day greetings within 2 to 7 days, a building confirmation application 4 is within 6 days from various applications 3 Application 5 is within 3 to 6 days of the three-party greeting, Official Loan 6 is within 8 days from the loan application 5, Order preparation 7 is within 2 to 8 days of the three-party greeting, Order 8 is within 7 to 5 days of order preparation, and local festival Numeral 9 is a three-party greeting within 2 to 7 days, and start of construction 10 is within 4 days from the date when all these operations are completed.

FIG. 2 is a network diagram showing an example of the automatic schedule management planning method according to the present invention. The network connection is generally a network connection using a cable, but may be a wireless network using a portable terminal or the like. With this network, Head Office 2
1, an office 22, and a district block 23 are connected, and are connected to a terminal for each manager and a terminal for a person in charge at each office. At the head office, a server computer 24 is installed and connected via a network. The server computer 24 stores a management master file, a work type information file, a scheduled days file, a property information file, and a property management file.

The management master file includes a person in charge, a department,
Data for performing basic management such as a business calendar is recorded. In the work type information file, work type information data for managing the order of various works is recorded.
The scheduled days file records a predetermined number of days to be completed for each property pattern and each work type. Here, the property pattern is a pattern of work types related to the type of property such as an apartment and a condominium, and the scheduled days file includes an allowable number of days for each work to be completed for each of the work types and an advance warning. The number of days is determined according to rules of thumb. In the property information file, work dates and actual dates for each property are recorded. In the property management file, the person in charge, the department, the work due date and the actual date are recorded for each property.

FIG. 3 is a table displaying the data of the work type information file on the screen, FIG. 4 is a table displaying the data of the scheduled days file on the screen, FIG. 5 is a calendar table displaying the business day calendar data of the management master file on the screen, FIG. 6 shows, as an example, a table displaying the data of the property information data file on a screen.

In the table shown in FIG. 3, each work type is arranged in chronological order, and each work is assigned an ID code. The precondition work ID code in FIG. 3 means an ID code of a work that must be completed first.

In the table shown in FIG. 4, the work ID codes are arranged in chronological order for each work type of each property pattern, and the allowable days in which the ID code of each work type in each property pattern must be completed are displayed. Further, the number of advance warning days and the number of spare days are displayed for each work ID code. The number of days of advance warning is divided into five stages, and is classified into signal 1 to signal 5 in descending order of the number of days. This signal is an index number of days set so that the risk of delay increases as approaching each schedule of each type of work. The screen display can be changed stepwise by using different colors or the like. For example, signal 1 is blue, signal 2 is green, signal 3 is yellow, signal 4 is pink, signal 5 is red, and so on. The number of spare days means a spare number of days that does not actually affect even if a delay occurs until the final work type is reached. The spare days are obtained on the basis of the type of work that requires the most days for the type of work. In the example of the table shown in FIG. 4, the property pattern 101, the work ID code 009
Has a grace period of 7 days for the work ID code 006.

The business day calendar shown in FIG. 5 has flags for 31 days for each year and month.
According to the actual calendar, 0 is a holiday and 1 is a business day. When calculating the schedule of the plan, only the business days are counted. When calculating the schedule of the plan, only the business days are counted.

In the table shown in FIG. 6, a property number is assigned to each property, and the property pattern, the process completion date and the actual date of the property are displayed for each property number. When the person in charge inputs the property pattern and the scheduled start date from the terminal for the person in charge, the server computer calculates the schedule of the plan by referring to the data of the work type information file and the scheduled days file,
The screen can be displayed on each terminal.

FIG. 7 is a flowchart showing the flow of registration of a planned schedule and registration of an actual date. The person in charge at each office first inputs the property pattern and the scheduled start date from the person in charge terminal (S1). When the person in charge enters the property pattern and the scheduled start date, the server computer at the head office
With reference to the stored work type information data, scheduled days data, and management master file, the due date of each work type is calculated, and the record is updated and managed as new property information on the server at the head office ( S2). The new property information updates the property management file of the server computer 24 (FIG. 2) at the head office (S3).

Further, each person in charge inputs a work completion date for each kind of work of the property from the person in charge terminal. With this input data, the property information file is updated, and the property management file is updated. In this way, the work schedule is managed based on the property management file updated in the server.

FIG. 8 is a flowchart showing an algorithm performed when the schedule is changed. When a delay occurs in the schedule (M1), the server computer issues a delay report request to the terminal for the person in charge, displays a display requesting the delay report on the terminal for the person on the screen, and the person in charge responds accordingly. Is input from the staff terminal (M2).

Whether the delay is a delay requiring a plan change or not is determined by comparing the planned date in the property information file with today, according to whether the planned date is delayed (M3). For example, in the case of an external factor such as a delay due to a loan institution, the person in charge inputs a scheduled completion date after the delay from the terminal for person in charge before the delay (M4).

When the server computer 24 determines that a change in the plan in the property information file is required, or when a delay is expected due to an external factor and a scheduled delay completion date is input, the history record in which the delay has occurred is deleted. It is recorded in the property information file as classification data (M5).

The server computer 24 creates a schedule record of the new category in which the planned schedule is changed in the property information file based on the old category data and the data of the planned number of days file and the data of the management master file (M
6). When creating a schedule record for a new category, in the case of delays due to internal factors, this is done by adding the allowable days of the expected number of days corresponding to the actual day, and in the case of delays due to external factors, the entered delay This is performed by adding the allowable number of days corresponding to the scheduled completion date. The property management data of the property management file is updated based on the property information data of the property information file (M7) thus newly created (M8).

FIG. 9 is a flowchart showing the algorithm of the automatic schedule management planning method according to the present invention. The server computer 24 calculates a difference between the schedule data input by the person in charge and today, that is, the number of remaining days (N1), and compares the number of remaining days with the number of advance warning days of the planned number of days (N1).
2).

The server computer 24 determines whether or not the number of remaining days compared in the process N2 is before the signal 1 (N3). If the number of remaining days becomes equal to or less than the number of days corresponding to the signal 1, the server 1 outputs a warning signal of the signal 1. Is transmitted to the person in charge terminal and displayed on the screen (N31). The same processing is performed for signals 2 to 4 (N4 to N6, N41 to N61).

If the signal corresponds to the signal 3 or the signal 4, the server computer 24 transmits a signal of the delay application request to the terminal for the person in charge, and displays the delay application request on the screen (N7). The person in charge determines whether or not the delay is due to an external factor (N8). If it is determined that the delay is an external factor, the person in charge inputs a scheduled completion date of the delay in consideration of the external factor (N9). ). The server computer, which receives the input of the delay completion date of the person in charge, creates and records the history and creates a new plan to change the schedule (N10).

When the number of remaining days becomes equal to or less than the number of days corresponding to the signal 5 (N11), the server computer sends a delay report request signal to the terminal for the person in charge and displays it on the screen for the terminal for the administrator, A delay report notification signal is sent and displayed on the screen, and when the person in charge inputs a delay report request, the signal is transmitted to the administrator terminal via the server computer, and a delay report is made (N12). If the number of delay days does not fit in the spare days, the server computer records the history and creates a new plan (N1).
0). The creation of the new plan is performed in the same manner as described with reference to FIG. 8, based on the old section data, using the data of the planned number of days file and the data of the management master file, and changing the schedule record of the new section in which the planned schedule is changed. Is created in the property information file, and when a schedule record of a new category is created, in the case of a delay due to an internal factor, this is performed by adding an allowable number of scheduled days corresponding to the actual day.

The above-described delay application request, delay report request, and delay report notification may be displayed on a screen in each terminal in a list format or individual format, or may be sent by e-mail.

As described above, the central processing type in which data is stored and processed by the host computer is preferable from the viewpoint of processing speed. However, when the data amount is large, the distributed processing for storing and processing the data in the terminal for the person in charge is used. The processing type may be used.

As is clear from the above description, according to the automatic schedule management planning method, the scheduler automatically enters the schedule just by inputting only the type of work such as the property pattern and the scheduled start date of the schedule. It is created and saves the trouble of inputting the schedules one by one.

By performing these processes by the server computer and providing them on the network, not only the person in charge but also the manager can be monitored using the manager terminal.

Further, by displaying the number of remaining days, displaying a warning on the screen as the number of remaining days decreases, and changing the warning as the number of remaining days decreases, it is possible to confirm that the date of the schedule is approaching. It can be checked immediately, making it easier to check the number of days required to complete the work by the deadline. Therefore, a problem of noticing that the schedule is approaching and that sufficient days have been lost is prevented.

Further, even if the date of the schedule has passed, the schedule is automatically re-assembled, so that the period for changing the schedule is shortened, and the labor required for the change is reduced.

Furthermore, since it is possible to draw out a schedule for each property or each person in charge, it is easy for the manager to grasp the overall progress, and it is easy to give instructions for improvement with respect to delays in work. Quick response is possible.

In addition, the server computer automatically requests the delay report from the person in charge and sends it to the manager, so that the manager does not have to wait for a report from the person in charge orally to take action. Thus, it is possible to reliably prevent the delay of the operation.

Further, since the result of the plan change is recorded,
There is also an advantage that it can be used for performance evaluation and personnel evaluation.

In the above embodiment, an example is shown in which the manager terminal and the staff terminal are connected via a network. However, the present invention is not limited to this. Can be stored to manage the work schedule.

In the automatic schedule management method described above, the program can be used as a computer-readable recording medium.

[0050]

As is apparent from the above description, according to the present invention, a schedule is automatically created, and further, it is easy to predict that the date of the schedule is approaching.
