  When the examination procedure is performed according to the flow shown in FIG. 15, the examinee who cannot print the examination fee payment form and the examination slip on the examination application terminal 12 can easily apply for the examination, as compared with the case of FIG. be able to.

  The present invention is not limited to this, and the examination procedure may be performed according to the flow shown in FIG. FIG. 16 is a flowchart showing still another operation example of the system to which the method for performing an examination procedure according to the present invention is applied.

  The flow shown in FIG. 16 is different from the flow shown in FIG. 8 in the steps in which an examination fee is paid. The specific contents will be described. From step S31 to step S34, the same processing as the flow from step S1 to step S4 shown in FIG. 8 is performed. In step S34, after “credit card” is selected as the payment method for the examination fee on the examination application page, the appropriate “credit card type” and “credit card number” are selected and entered. It is input as examination application data (step S34).

  The billing amount data including data indicating the amount of the examination fee that the examinee has to pay together with the data indicating “name” and “credit card number” included in the examination application data is the examination procedure management server 34. To the online approval system of a credit sales company (not shown) (step S35). The online approval system is a system that confirms whether or not a credit sales company approves a payment by a credit card by a credit card owner through a network.

  When the credit sales company approves the payment for the billing data (step S36), the approval data with an appropriate flag indicating that the payment for the billing data is approved is transmitted to the examination procedure management server 34 (step S36). S37). Upon receiving the approval data, the examination procedure management server 34 stores the corresponding examination application data in the examination application database 48b (step S38). In this example, the approval data is configured as the approval data by adding a flag indicating that the payment is approved to the billing data. However, the approval data is not limited to this and may be created in any other appropriate format.

  Then, the examination procedure management server 34 generates examination slip print data from the stored examination application data, and transmits it to the examination application terminal 12 via the network 100 by the HTTP server application 48a (step S39).

  The examinee uses the viewer application 28b and the printer 22 to print the received examination slip print data as shown in FIG. 14 to complete the examination procedure (step S40).

  When the examination procedure is performed according to the flow shown in FIG. 16, the examination fee payment form print data is transmitted from the examination procedure management server 34 to the examination application terminal 12, compared with the case of FIG. Since the payment work at the payment terminal 54 can be reduced using the examination fee payment form printing and the examination fee payment form, it is possible to easily apply for the examination very quickly. Further, when processing is performed by this flow in all examination application terminals 12, it is not necessary to install a payment terminal 54, and the system configuration can be simplified.

  Furthermore, in the present invention, the examination procedure may be performed according to the flow shown in FIG. FIG. 17 is a flowchart showing an operation example of the system to which the method for performing the examination procedure according to the present invention is applied.

  The flow shown in FIG. 17 is different from the flow shown in FIG. 8 in the steps in which an examination fee is paid. The specific contents will be described. From step S41 to step S44, processing similar to the flow from step S1 to step S4 shown in FIG. 8 is performed. In step S44, “electronic money” is selected as the payment method for the examination fee on the examination application page, and data relating to the payment method is input to the examination application data (step S44). In this case, the examination fee is paid by network electronic money without making payment by the settlement terminal 54 using the examination fee payment form (step S45).

  In this case, the network type electronic money management application needs to be installed in the examination application terminal 12 and the examination procedure management server 34. In this embodiment, e-cache developed by DigiCash is applied as network-type electronic money.
