Abstract

<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To solve such a problem that although there is a technology for managing a flag showing that input to a screen is completed, and for, when it is not flagged, warning a user to go on to the next processing in the conventional manner, regarding a technology for warning the user of skipping of processing in a system having a plurality of hierarchies for completing processing in each hierarchy, in this case, determination is made only on the basis of whether it is flagged or not, and it is not possible to specify any reason why the flag is set to such a state. <P>SOLUTION: A management table for registering processing sequence, processing frequency and processing hierarchy input as data on each screen in a table is created, and processing is performed by skipping one hierarchy based on this. When it is determined that the processing has been skipped, warning corresponding to the processing is output. To the management table and each processing, a change history information table showing who has performed the processing, and what type of content of processing has been performed is linked so that the warning corresponding to the processing can be output. Thus, it is possible to achieve pop-up display under the consideration of the changed content. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2011,JPO&INPIT

Description

  The present invention relates to a system for selecting a screen for inputting and correcting data from a menu screen, and particularly to a transportation revenue management system.

  There is a system that inputs necessary data on each screen and performs the following processing based on the data. In particular, there is a system in which processing on each screen is categorized into a plurality of hierarchies, and the processing is completed for each hierarchy. The present invention relates to a technique for warning processing skip in such a system. In such a system, after inputting data on several screens, when further data is input based on those data on the next screen and data processing is performed on the next screen, when the screen input is completed , Manage the flag indicating that the input on the screen is completed in the database, and if the flag is set, go to the next process, and if the flag is not set, There is known a technique of warning that a process is to be performed (Patent Document 1). In addition, when the data once input is corrected again and the next process is performed without performing the process of reflecting the next data, the data that should be originally performed may not be reflected. In this regard, a technique is known in which when the data is retroactively re-corrected, the flag is cleared to control the next process.

Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 11-288861

  However, in Patent Document 1, when a transition of screen processing to be performed at present is attempted to be controlled by a flag, only the determination of whether the flag item is “0” or “1” is made, so the flag is in that state. The reason cannot be specified. In addition, only the process of managing the flag cannot specify the information about which data has been corrected when the flag is released from the standing state.

  Further, in a system in which a plurality of users can process input and correction on the screen in parallel, the person whose data has been corrected may be different from the person who is performing the next process. In such a case, it is necessary to recognize why the input data has been corrected. In particular, if you are dealing with important data, such as a transportation revenue management system, you need to manage the reason for the correction.

  An object of the present invention is to use a management table as a data file in order to solve the above problem, warn that the processing order is incorrect, link it with a change history information table using a key item, and allow other users to store data. Since it has been modified, it is necessary to provide a means for outputting a warning with an indication of who should perform the operation again.

  A management table is created in the data file, and the processing order, the number of processing times, and the processing hierarchy entered in each screen are registered in the table. The processing order is automatically assigned by the CPU at the end of screen input in the order of the input screen. The number of processes stores the number of processes on the screen as a numerical value. The processing hierarchy is a layer for limiting the order of processing, and is an item that becomes a definition for enabling processing of the next hierarchy after finishing all the processes of the same hierarchy. In addition, when processing is performed retroactively, it is necessary to perform processing again in the order of the hierarchy from the re-executed processing. These items are stored in the management table when the screen input is completed and the transaction is completed.

  The warning output method for data reflection omission and skipping of processing determines that data reflection omission and processing has been skipped by performing processing with one layer skipped, and outputs a warning. In addition, by linking the management table and the change history information table in the data file, the data skipped by processing the hierarchy, and the data that is not reflected is displayed in a pop-up on the screen, which data is not reflected to the user. Let them know.

  It is possible to output a warning that can determine which data has been modified and who has corrected how the data is not reflected due to skipping processing. As a result, it is possible to prevent an error in the recorded data that occurs due to skipping the processing.

  Embodiments according to the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings.

  FIG. 1 shows a hardware configuration of a processing procedure error warning device (hereinafter referred to as a server) 10. The server and the plurality of client terminals 20 are connected by a network or a dedicated line. The server exchanges information with the client terminal via the interface 120. Here, the server can operate the screen input in parallel from each client terminal. The predefined processing unit 100-1 functioning by the CPU 100 of the server executes the processing instructed from the screen, and the management table registration unit 100-2 determines the processing contents on each screen and the order in which the processing was performed. , Execute processing to be stored in the table (management table 110-1, change history information table 110-2) stored in the storage area 110 of the server, and the warning execution processing unit 100-3 issues a warning using the management table. Execute.

  FIG. 2 shows the concept of multi-level data processing in this embodiment. In level 1, the sales data input process, the refund data input process, and other data input processes are performed. When all the processes are completed, the process of the hierarchy 1 is completed and the process transits to the hierarchy 2. Here, the processes in the hierarchy can be performed independently, but the process of hierarchy 2 as the next hierarchy cannot be performed unless all the processes of hierarchy 1 are completed. In Tier 2, revenue data is created based on the data input in Tier 1. At this time, the revenue data input screen is displayed on the screen of the client terminal. When this processing is completed, the processing of layer 2 is completed and the transition to layer 3 is made. In level 3, bank deposit data creation processing is performed based on the aggregated data.

  Here, it is assumed that the station clerk notices that he / she has forgotten to input the refund data before performing the process of creating the bank deposit data at the level 3. At that time, the payout data input process of level 1 is executed again. In other words, necessary data is input and corrected from the refund data input processing screen. Thereafter, the processing of level 2 is performed again, and the data corresponding to the refund data input of level 1 is reflected in the revenue data.

  However, if the process is forgotten and the process of level 3 is performed, data consistency cannot be obtained and correct bank deposit data cannot be obtained. In such a case, there is a possibility that the revenue data related to the corporate office is not reflected and misreception of the contact settlement with other companies. In the present embodiment, an example will be described in which when the processing of level 2 is skipped in this way, a pop-up display that warns that effect is displayed on the screen to warn that processing is skipped. Specific processing contents will be described later.

  In this embodiment, at the time of warning, using the processing name and processing count of the management table, the input / correction information made by the processing count is acquired from the change history information table, and in creating bank deposit data, It is possible to warn the user whether there is insufficient data reflection. With such a mechanism, it is possible to prevent omissions in the reflection of revenue data related to corporate offices and misreception of contact settlement with other companies. In addition, there is a possibility that multiple users may correct data in parallel in this system, but by managing the management table in a unified manner, it was possible to centrally manage data reflection omissions caused by corrections made by other users. Information can be output to a warning output pop-up from the management table and the change history information table until “who” and “what” are corrected.

  The process of issuing a warning when performing a process skipping the process hierarchy will be described with reference to FIGS.

  FIG. 3 shows a specific example of the management table. In each process of each hierarchy, when inputting, correcting, and deleting data and registering the data, the management table registration unit sets a numerical value one larger than the process order of the immediately preceding process in the order in which the records of each process are operated. Store it as information. It should be noted that the processing hierarchy of each processing content is specified by preparing a correspondence table in advance. When the same process is performed again, the record is stored with a numerical value that is 1 larger than the process count when the process was performed last time as the process count. In this example, the refund data input is corrected and the refund data input process is performed twice.

  Further, as shown in FIG. 4, the management table registration unit stores in the change history information table what content and who modified each process in each layer. Here, the information about the person in charge is included in the information regarding the processing sent from the client terminal.

  A case where a warning is issued will be described with reference to FIG.

  The warning execution processing unit reads the management table from the storage area when performing the processing of level 3 (S501). Then, the processing hierarchy to be performed is compared with the previous processing hierarchy (S502). As a result of this comparison, if the hierarchy is not continuous, for example, if the process of hierarchy 3 is going to be performed next to the process of hierarchy 1, it is determined that the intermediate hierarchy has been skipped, and the process of 6 is performed. Output a warning popup on the screen. When popping up on the screen, who modified what in the previous hierarchy (in the case of jumping from hierarchy 1 to hierarchy 3 above, refers to hierarchy 1) using the change history information stored in the storage area The warning is output so that it can be understood. Specifically, the refund data input process, which is the process of level 1 that caused the skip of the process hierarchy, is identified as the cause of error (S503), and the processing screen name and the number of times of the refund data input process are managed. Extract from table. Then, the change history information table is searched using the two pieces of information as keys, and the person in charge and the change contents are extracted (S504). Then, a warning is output to the client terminal based on the extracted person in charge and processing contents (S505). In this way, miscounting can be prevented, and work burdens such as investigations when misdata is recorded at the head office examination section can be reduced.

  What operations were performed on the change history information table using the processing screen name, processing count, and date as key items when the hierarchy jumped from 1 to 3 as in the processing of the order 5 and 6 in the management table above. You can correct the processing procedure by acquiring (change content) and writing this content in the screen pop-up warning.

  The above processing will be described more clearly as information processing with reference to the flowchart of FIG. 6 (m and n described below are arbitrary integers).

  When processing of order m and hierarchy n is performed, attention is paid to processing of order (m−1) which is processing performed before that. The processing unit of the host calculates whether the processing of the order (m-1) is not lower than the hierarchy (n-2). Otherwise there is no warning output. If it is lower than the hierarchy (n-2), the management table is searched for the process of the hierarchy (n-1) in the process after the order (m-2). When there is a corresponding record in the management table, the maximum value of the order of those records is acquired, and the processing performed from the processing performed to the maximum value to the order (m-1) from the change history information table to the processing screen The change contents are acquired from the change history information using the name, processing count, and date as keys, and a warning message is displayed. If there is no corresponding record as a result of searching the management table for processing of the hierarchy (n-1) in the management table, the processing performed from order 1 to order (m-1) is output to the warning message as above To do.
