Thereby, even a user who does not have expertise about a computer can easily reflect a setting for reaching a target transition destination screen in an application without going through an unnecessary screen.
That is, according to the present embodiment, work by an engineer who requires specialized knowledge such as source code programming, compilation, and distribution (installation) to the system is unnecessary.
Further, according to the present embodiment, it is not necessary to compile or redistribute a module when a module is changed by an engineer when an operation change such as a data table referred to by an application or a screen transition is performed. For this reason, the technology according to the present embodiment can reduce the development man-hours and the development period, and can construct the communication system 1 for any computer system at a low cost.

Furthermore, according to the present embodiment, once the application is distributed to the smart device 2, the screen transition setting can be easily updated by acquiring new transition definition information from the server 3. That is, the communication system 1 that is highly convenient for the user can be provided.
Further, according to the present embodiment, the transition destination screen such as FIG. 12A and FIG. 13A is specified by describing the table name of the management table 321 and the narrowing-down conditions in the transition definition information 221. It is possible to transit to the transition destination screen without going through each screen for performing the screen or a screen for setting a narrowing condition as shown in FIG. As a result, the burden on the user is greatly reduced.

  For example, a user who has almost decided to transition to the screen in FIG. 14A displays FIG. 12A, FIG. 13A, FIG. 13B, etc. each time the transition destination screen is displayed. It is annoying to go through. According to this embodiment, based on the transition definition information 221, it is possible to skip FIG. 12 (a), FIG. 13 (a), and FIG. 13 (b) and directly transition to the target transition destination screen. Therefore, the burden on the user can be reduced.

  Also, as shown in FIG. 19A, a list of transition definition information 221 stored in the server 3 is displayed, and the transition definition stored in the smart device 2 owned by the user from the list is displayed. By selecting / acquiring the information 221, it is possible to acquire the transition definition information 221 required by the user.

In addition, this invention is not limited to above-described embodiment, Various modifications are included.
For example, in the present embodiment, the mobile device that is the smart device 2 is wirelessly connected to the network 4, but is not limited thereto, and may be connected by wire.
In the present embodiment, the generated transition definition information 221 is transmitted to the server 3, and after the transition definition information 221 is published by the server 3, the smart devices 2 other than the smart device 2 that generated the transition definition information 221 The disclosed transition definition information 221 is acquired. However, after the smart device 2 generates the transition definition information 221, it may be directly distributed to other smart devices 2. In this case, the smart device 2 also functions as the server 3.

Further, when the transition definition information 221 is distributed directly from the smart device 2 to another smart device 2, the acquired smart device 2 may be able to select the transition definition information 221 to be acquired.
In the present embodiment, the transition definition information 221 stores a table name corresponding to the transition source screen and a table name corresponding to the transition destination screen. However, the present invention is not limited to this. For example, the same management table 321 is used. When the screen transitions, the field name of the transition source, the field name of the transition destination, etc. may be stored.
Alternatively, user evaluation using the transition definition information 221 acquired from the server 3 may be transmitted to the server 3. Then, the server 3 may store the evaluation in the transition management information 322. Further, the server 3 displays the evaluation of the transition definition information 221 on the transition definition selection screen 1600 in FIG. 19A, and the user selects the transition definition information 221 acquired based on the evaluation. Also good.
In practice, it is preferable to use XML (Extensible Markup Language) or the like for the screen information, the transition definition information 221 and the like.
