JP 2015-18544 A

  By the way, the application which needs to input information about many input items is increasing with the diversification of application contents. As a result, it is easy for information leakage about some of the input items to occur.

  Generally, when it is determined that there is an input item for which information has not been input when transmitting information from the application terminal to the reception server, a display requesting input of information about the input item is displayed on the application terminal, The applicant continues to input information according to the display. However, this work is complicated for the applicant because it forces the applicant who knows that the input of information has been completed to be input, and the efficiency of the information input is low. For this reason, the time required for inputting the information is increased.

Such a problem is not limited to the case where information necessary for application is input to the application terminal, but is common when information regarding a plurality of input items is input to an information input device that processes the input information.
An object of the present invention is to provide an information input device and an information input program capable of suppressing information input leakage.

  An information input device that solves the above problems includes a display unit that displays an input screen, a touch sensor that receives an operation of selecting an area in the input screen and outputs a signal indicating the position of the operation, and the signal And a control unit that controls display of the display unit, each of the plurality of input items indicates a type of information to be input to the input item, and an input field of the input item corresponds to the input item As an input of information, an area in which information based on the signal is displayed, the control unit includes the input field of the input item in the input screen and sequentially displays the input item for each input item. A display control unit configured to display information in the input field being displayed based on the signal indicating a position of an operation on the screen, wherein the display control unit is a condition of information to be displayed in the input field being displayed; For each input item to which the input field being displayed indicates whether the information displayed in the input field is satisfied as the completion of input of information for the input item, and whether the input of information is complete Until it is determined that the input of information is completed, the display is not changed in the input field of the next input item, and when it is determined that the input of information is completed, the next The display is changed to the input field of the input item.

  An information input program that solves the above problem is based on a display unit that displays an input screen, a touch sensor that receives an operation of selecting an area in the input screen and outputs a signal indicating the position of the operation, and the signal An information input program that causes the control unit of the information input device to function as a display control unit, and each of the plurality of input items is input to the input item. The type of information to be displayed is indicated. The input field of the input item is an area in which information based on the signal is displayed as information input to the input item, and the display control unit is configured to input the input item. A column is included in the input screen and displayed in order for each input item, and information is input to the displayed input column based on the signal indicating the position of the operation on the input screen. A display control unit for displaying that the condition of information to be displayed in the input field being displayed satisfies the information displayed in the input field as completion of input of information for the input item Whether the input of information is completed is determined for each input item to which the input field being displayed belongs, and the input of the next input item is determined until it is determined that the input of information is complete When it is determined that the input of information is complete without changing the display to the column, the display is changed to the input column of the next input item.

  According to the above configuration, the input field of the input item for which no information is input is not displayed until it is determined that the input of information for the input item to which the input field being displayed belongs is completed. Information leakage to each of these is suppressed. In addition, after information has been input for all input items, it is determined whether or not information input has been completed for each input item, and it is determined that information input has not been completed. Compared with a configuration that requires input of appropriate information for the input items, it is possible to prevent the user from feeling complicated in inputting information and to input information efficiently.

  In the above configuration, the input screen includes a first area, and the display control unit uses the input field for displaying information based on the signal as the target input field in the input field, When an operation for selecting the first area is detected in a state where the input field is set as the target input field, a target change process may be performed. The target change process performs the determination, and when it is determined that the input of information for the input item to which the input field being displayed belongs is completed, the input field of the input item included in the input screen Is changed to the input field of the next input item, and the input field is set as the target input field.

  According to the above configuration, the input field of the input item included in the input screen is changed to the input field of the next input item through the above determination by one operation of selecting the first area, and the input field is the target. Since it is set in the input field, the user can input information for the next input item following the selection of the first area. Therefore, the operation required to input information is reduced as compared with a configuration that requires two or more operations from the completion of input of information for one input item to the start of input of information for the next input item. Therefore, the convenience for the user is improved, and the efficiency of information input is increased.

  In the above-described configuration, the input item is composed of a plurality of lower items further dividing the input item, and the input field of the input item is provided for each of the lower items, and constitutes the input item being displayed The operation of selecting the first area is detected in a state where the input fields of all the lower items are sequentially set to the target input field one by one and the last input field is set to the target input field. When this is done, the display control unit may perform the target changing process.

  According to the above configuration, when the input item is composed of a plurality of lower items, the target input field is the last of the input items previously displayed through the above determination by the operation of selecting the first area. The input field is changed to the input field of the newly displayed input item. Therefore, since the user can input information following the selection of the first area in a mode suitable for the configuration of the input items, the convenience for the user is improved.

  In the configuration described above, the display control unit is required to input information among the plurality of lower items constituting the input item to which the input field being displayed belongs, and information is not input. When there is the lower item, as the determination, it may be determined that the input of information for the input item is not completed, and a notification indicating that there is an uninput lower item may be displayed.

  According to the above configuration, since it is accurately determined whether or not the input of information for the displayed input item has been completed, omission of input of information is accurately suppressed. In addition, since it is notified that there is a non-input sub-item, the user can appropriately input information by inputting information to the non-input sub-item.

  In the above configuration, the control unit displays in the input field whether or not the information input to the input item is information that matches the format of information to be input to the input item. An error determination unit that determines each time the information being changed is changed, and the display control unit determines that the information input to the input item does not match the format by the error determination unit. A notification indicating that the input information does not match the format is displayed, and the latest determination result by the error determination unit indicates that the information input for the input item matches the format. When the display control unit indicates that the information has not been input, it may be determined that the input of information for the input item is not completed as the determination by the display control unit.

  According to the above configuration, the input field for the next input item is not displayed unless the information that matches the format of the information to be input for the input item is displayed. It is possible to smoothly input accurate information that matches the format of information to be processed. Further, since it is notified that the input information does not match the format, the user can appropriately advance the input of information.

  Furthermore, since the determination by the error determination unit is performed every time the information displayed in the input field is changed, the user can easily determine whether the input information matches the format of the information to be input. Can be judged. If the input information does not match the format of the information to be input, the user can immediately correct the information. Therefore, compared with the case where an error is pointed out after the input of a large amount of information, it is possible to reduce the complexity that the user feels when correcting the information.

  In the above configuration, the display control unit has determined that the input of information has been completed by changing the input field of the input item included in the input screen by the target changing process. The input information about the input item may be included in the input screen and displayed.

  According to the above configuration, the user can check whether there is an error in the input information for the input items that have been input while inputting information for the input items that have not been input. Accordingly, the efficiency of information input is improved as compared with a configuration in which a screen for only confirmation of information input to an input item is displayed for each input item and information confirmation is required. In addition, the number of input items to be checked at a time is small compared to a configuration in which requests for confirmation of input information are collectively performed after information is input to all input items. On the other hand, since the information can be confirmed immediately after the information is input, the convenience for the user is improved.

  In the above configuration, when an operation for selecting the input item on which the input information is displayed is detected, the display control unit selects the input field of the input item included in the input screen. Alternatively, the input field of the input item may be changed.

  According to the above configuration, when the user notices that there is an error in the input information by confirming the input information, the user can immediately select the input item by performing the operation of selecting the input item. The information entered can be corrected. Therefore, convenience in inputting information is improved.

  In the above configuration, the plurality of input items are divided into a plurality of categories, and the display control unit inputs information for each of the plurality of input items included in the category for each category. When it is determined that the information has been completed, a request for confirmation of information input to each input item included in the category may be displayed.

  According to the above configuration, the input items to be confirmed at one time by the user are compared with the configuration in which the confirmation of the input information is collectively performed after the information is input to all the input items. Since the number is small and the information can be confirmed while the elapsed time after the information is input to the input item is short, the convenience for the user is improved.

  In the above configuration, the display control unit includes a display indicating a ratio of the input items that are already determined to be input among a plurality of the input items, and displays the display on the input screen. Also good.

  According to the above configuration, the user can grasp the ratio of input items for which information has been input among a plurality of input items for which information needs to be input. Even in a configuration in which it is not possible to confirm how many items there are, it is possible to know how much information has been input. Therefore, convenience in inputting information is improved.

The display unit 12a has a function of displaying characters, images, and the like on the display surface of the display unit 12a based on data received from the control unit 13, and specifically displays the input screen Dn described above.

  The operation unit 12b is a touch sensor that includes a touch panel and its drive circuit and detection circuit. The operation unit 12b converts an operation performed on the operation surface of the operation unit 12b by the user, that is, an operation input to the operation unit 12b into a signal and outputs the signal to the control unit 13. Specifically, the operation unit 12b receives an operation of touching the operation surface superimposed on the display surface with a finger or the like, in other words, an operation of selecting an area in the input screen Dn displayed on the display surface. A signal indicating the position of the operation is output.

  The control unit 13 includes a CPU and a volatile memory such as a RAM. The control unit 13 controls communication by the communication unit 11 based on programs and data stored in the storage unit 14, exchanges data and signals between the control unit 13 and the input / output unit 12, and stores in the storage unit 14. Control of each functional unit included in the information input device 10 such as reading and writing of programs and data, various arithmetic processes, and the like is performed.

Specifically, the control unit 13 includes a display control unit 13a and an error determination unit 13b.
The display control unit 13a detects a contact position of a finger or the like on the operation surface based on a signal from the operation unit 12b, and determines which region is selected in the input screen Dn. Then, the display control unit 13a performs processing according to the selected area. For example, the display control unit 13a displays the input screen Dn on the display unit 12a by processing such as generation of data to be displayed on the display unit 12a, and displays the display content of the input screen Dn based on a signal from the operation unit 12b. The change is instructed to the display unit 12a.

  Specifically, when the display control unit 13a determines that the area where the character key Km is displayed has been selected, the display control unit 13a inputs the lower item Is that is the input target of the character or number indicated by the selected character key Km. Display in column F. In addition, when the display control unit 13a determines that the area where the auxiliary key Ks is displayed is selected, the display control unit 13a includes the input item F in the input field F of the lower item Is to be input according to the process indicated by the selected auxiliary key Ks. Change the display. Information displayed in the input field F is held by the display control unit 13a.

  The display control unit 13a selects the area where the completion key Kf is displayed when the lower item Is to be input is not the lower item Is whose input order is set last in the input item In. When it is determined that it has been performed, the following processing is performed. That is, the display control unit 13a refers to the determination result by the error determination unit 13b, and when the predetermined condition is satisfied, the display control unit 13a stores the input field F of the lower item Is held by the display control unit 13a. The displayed information is determined as information corresponding to the lower item Is. At the same time, the display control unit 13a changes the input target to the lower item Is set in the input order next to the lower item Is, and changes the display accordingly.

  The display control unit 13a also displays the area where the completion key Kf is displayed when the lower-level item Is to be input is the lower-level item Is whose input order is last set in the input item In. When it is determined that it has been selected, the following processing is performed. That is, the display control unit 13a refers to the determination result by the error determination unit 13b and the information held by the display control unit 13a, and whether or not the input of information for the input item In to be input has been completed. Determine. Among these, the display control unit 13a is displayed in the input field F of the lower item Is held by the display control unit 13a when a predetermined condition is satisfied as a determination result by the error determination unit 13b. Is determined as information corresponding to the lower item Is. When it is determined that the input of information for the input item In to be input is completed, the display control unit 13a sets the input field F of the input item In displayed in the input target display area Zb to the input order. Is changed to the input field F of the input item In set next to the input item In.

  In other words, the display control unit 13a does not display the input field F of the input item In for which no information is input until it is determined that the input of information for the input item In to be input has been completed.

  It is indicated that information corresponding to each lower item Is is held in the information input device 10 as confirmed information, that is, information corresponding to each lower item Is is input to the information input device 10.

  The display control unit 13a displays various displays in the notification display area Za in accordance with the information input status. Such a display includes the above-described progress display Np and information that has already been input for the input item In that has already been determined to have been input, that is, information corresponding to the sub-item Is of the input item In. A confirmed information display Nc indicating the confirmed information is included.

  Whenever the information displayed in the input field F of the lower item Is that is the input target is changed, the error determination unit 13b selects the character key Km or the auxiliary key Ks. Whenever it is determined that the display in the input field F is changed, an error determination process is performed. In the error determination process, the error determination unit 13b determines that the information input to the input lower item Is, that is, the information displayed in the input field F is the information to be input to the lower item Is. It is determined whether or not the information matches a format preset as a format.

For example, software including the information input program may be embodied as application software for application.

[Operation of information input device]
With reference to FIGS. 3 to 13, the operation of the information input device 10 will be described with reference to the transition of the input screen Dn.
FIG. 3 shows the input screen Dn in which the input item In set in the first input order is displayed in the input target display area Zb and before the input of information is started. Among the sub-items Is that constitute the input item In being displayed, the input field F of the sub-item Is whose input order is set first is the operation that the display control unit 13a inputs to the operation unit 12b. The corresponding information, that is, information based on the signal from the operation unit 12b, is set in the target input field that is a target to be displayed. The lower item Is to which the input field F set in the target input field belongs is the lower item Is to be input. In the input field F of the lower item Is, a target display Nt indicating that the input field F is set as the target input field, that is, the lower item Is is an input target is displayed.

  Specifically, an input item In of “name” is displayed, and this input item In is composed of a lower item Is of “last name” and a lower item Is of “first name”. The sub-item Is of “last name” is set as an input target, the frame of the input field F is displayed in dark color as the target display Nt, and a cursor is displayed in the input field F.

  As described above, the display control unit 13a does not display the input field F of the next input item In until it is determined that the input of information for the input item In to be input has been completed. Therefore, in the state where information is not input to the subordinate item Is which is an essential item among the displayed input items In, for example, an input field of the input item In where no information is input by scrolling the input screen Dn or the like Even if F is displayed, such an input field F is not displayed.

  FIG. 4 shows an input screen Dn in which the operation for selecting the character key Km is performed and the display is changed from the screen shown in FIG. That is, when the display control unit 13a instructs to change the display according to the selected character key Km, the character or the like indicated by the selected character key Km is displayed in the input field F that is the target input field. Further, when an operation for selecting the auxiliary key Ks is performed, the display control unit 13a instructs the display to be changed according to the selected auxiliary key Ks, so that the process indicated by the auxiliary key Ks is performed. The information displayed in the input field F that is the target input field is changed.

  Specifically, the hiragana characters corresponding to the character key Km selected by the user are converted into the input field F of the subitem Is of the “last name”, and further, the hiragana characters are converted by the selection of the auxiliary key Ks. Kanji characters are displayed. The user performs an operation of selecting the character key Km or the auxiliary key Ks according to the information to be input, that is, the user's last name in the example of FIG. Display information.

  Here, every time the information displayed in the input field F of the input target sub-item Is changes, an error determination process is performed by the error determination unit 13b. This process will be described with reference to FIG.

  The flow shown in FIG. 5 is performed by the error determination unit 13b every time the display control unit 13a determines that the character key Km or the auxiliary key Ks is selected and changes the display in the input field F that is the target input field. This is a process to be performed.

  First, in step S10, the error determination unit 13b determines whether characters or the like are displayed in the input field F, which is the target input field, that is, character information is held in the display control unit 13a as information on the target input field. Determine whether or not. The character information includes characters, numbers, symbols, and the like, and holding the character information indicates that the input field F is not blank.

  When it is determined that the character information is held (step S10: YES), the error determination unit should input the character or the like indicated by the character information to the input lower item Is as the process of step S11. It is determined whether or not the information format matches a preset format. For example, when the input target is the sub-item Is of “last name”, hiragana, katakana, and kanji characters are set as information formats to be input, and numbers are excluded. Further, for example, when the input target is the sub-item Is of the “year” of the input item In of “birth date”, a 4-digit number is set as the format of information to be input. The error determination unit 13b determines whether or not the characters indicated by the character information match the format set in advance as described above.

  When it is determined that the character or the like indicated by the character information matches the preset format (step S11: YES), the error determination unit 13b sets the error determination result to “no error” as the process of step S12. Set to, and the process ends. Similarly, when it is determined in step S10 that character information is not held (step S10: NO), that is, when the input field F of the target input field is blank, the error determination unit 13b In step S12, the error determination result is set to “no error”, and the process ends. In the previous error determination process, when the determination result of the error determination is set to “no error”, the setting is maintained.

  On the other hand, when it is determined that the character or the like indicated by the character information does not match the preset format (step S11: NO), the error determination unit 13b sets the error determination result to “ Set to “Error” to end the process. In the previous error determination process, when the determination result of the error determination is set to “error present”, the setting is maintained.

  When the determination result of the error determination is set to “with error”, the display control unit 13a inputs the input information to the input item lower item Is in the vicinity of the input field F that is the target input field. An error display, which is a notification indicating that it does not match the format of the power information, is displayed. FIG. 6 shows an input screen Dn on which an error display Ne is displayed. While the error determination result is set to “with error”, the error display Ne continues to be displayed. When the error determination result is set to “no error”, the display control unit 13a displays the error display Ne. Change the display to turn off.

  Thereby, for example, when the format of the information to be input is set as in the above example, and the input target is the subitem Is of “last name”, the input field is selected based on the selection of the character key Km. When a number is displayed on F, an error display Ne is displayed. Based on the selection of the auxiliary key Ks, the number displayed in the input field F is deleted and the input field F becomes blank, or only hiragana, katakana, and kanji are displayed in the input field F. When the state is reached, the error display Ne disappears.

  Also, for example, when the input object is the sub-item Is of “year” in the input item In of “birth date”, characters other than four-digit numbers in the input field F, that is, numbers other than four digits, When characters other than numbers are displayed, an error display Ne is displayed. Then, based on the selection of the character key Km or the auxiliary key Ks, for example, when the number displayed in the input field F is increased or decreased to display a four-digit number, the error display Ne disappears.

  Each time the character displayed in the input field F increases or decreases by one character, an error display Ne based on such error determination is displayed. Therefore, the user can obtain the information displayed in the input field F by the user's operation, It can be easily determined whether or not it matches the format of information to be input. If the information displayed in the input field F does not match the format of the information to be input, the user can immediately correct the information. Therefore, compared with the case where an error is pointed out after the input of a large amount of information, it is possible to reduce the complexity that the user feels when correcting the information.

  It is to be noted that each time the information displayed in the input field F of the input target sub-item Is changes, the information input to the input target sub-item Is matches the format of the information to be input. If the determination is made and the notification is displayed when it is determined that they do not match, the error determination processing flow by the error determination unit 13b is different from the flow shown in FIG. It may be.

Thus, when the user determines that the information to be input is displayed in the input field F of the lower item Is to be input, the user performs an operation of selecting the completion key Kf. When detecting an operation for selecting the area where the completion key Kf is displayed based on the signal from the operation unit 12b, the display control unit 13a determines that the input item In is the lower item Is to be input. It is determined whether or not the input item is the lower item Is set last. When there is one sub-item Is that constitutes the input item In, the sub-item Is corresponds to the sub-item Is that is set last in the input order.
The flow illustrated in FIG. 7 is a process performed by the display control unit 13a when it is determined that the input lower-level item Is is not the last lower-level item Is.

  First, as a process of step S20, the display control unit 13a determines whether or not the determination result of the error determination by the error determination unit 13b is set to “no error”.

  When it is determined that the determination result of the error determination is set to “no error” (step S20: YES), the display control unit 13a performs the process of step S21, the target held by the display control unit 13a The information displayed in the input field F of the input field is confirmed and held as information corresponding to the input target lower item Is. When the input field F of the target input field is a blank field, the display control unit 13a determines and holds blank field information, which is information indicating that there is no character information, as information corresponding to the lower item Is. To do.

  In step S22, the display control unit 13a sets the input field F of the lower item Is set next to the lower item Is in the target input field, that is, the input order is the next. The lower item Is is set as an input target, the display is changed accordingly, and the process ends.

  When it is determined that the determination result of the error determination is not set to “no error”, that is, “error present” is set (step S20: NO), the display control unit 13a performs steps S21 and S22. The process ends without performing the process.

  FIG. 8 shows a state in which the lower item Is set to the first input order is set as an input target, and information matching the format of the information to be input is displayed in the input field F of the lower item Is. That is, the input screen Dn after the completion key Kf is selected while the input screen Dn shown in FIG. 4 is displayed is shown.

  As shown in FIG. 8, in the input field F of the next lower item Is of the input field F in which information is displayed, the input field F is the target input field, that is, the lower item Is is the input target. A target display Nt is displayed. Specifically, Kanji characters are displayed in the input field F of the lower item Is of the “last name”, and the target display Nt is displayed in the input field F of the lower item Is of the “first name”.

  That is, by selecting the completion key Kf, the information displayed in the input field F of the lower item Is that was the input target is confirmed, and the input target is changed to the next lower item Is. The user can display information in the input field F of the lower item Is newly set as the input target by performing an operation of selecting the character key Km.

  When the determination result of the error determination is set to “error present” and the error display Ne is displayed, such confirmation of information and change of the input target are not performed. That is, the input target lower item Is is not changed, and the error display Ne is continuously displayed. However, it is assumed that the user rarely performs an operation of selecting the completion key Kf in a state where the error display Ne is displayed.

  As described above, since the information displayed in the input field F and the input target lower item Is are changed by one operation of selecting the completion key Kf, the information is confirmed and the input target is changed. Compared with a configuration that requires separate operations, the convenience of the user when inputting information is high.

  When the determination result of the error determination is set to “with error”, if the input target lower item Is is not changed, the processing flow by the display control unit 13a is the flow shown in FIG. May be different.

  Even after the input target sub-item Is is changed, information is input to the input target sub-item Is after the change in the same manner as described above with reference to FIGS. When the input item In to be input is composed of three or more sub-items Is, as in the above description with reference to FIGS. 7 and 8, the input target sub-item Is is further according to the set input order. Is changed, and the input of information for the lower item Is, the determination of the information, and the change of the input lower item Is are repeated.

  FIG. 9 shows the input screen Dn in a state in which the lower item Is whose input order is set last in the input item In to be input is set as the input target, and information is displayed in the input field F of the lower item Is. . Specifically, Kanji characters are displayed in the input field F of the subitem Is of the “last name” and the subitem Is of the “first name” constituting the input item In of the “name”.

  Also in this case, when the user determines that the information to be input is displayed in the input field F of the lower item Is that is the input target, the user performs an operation of selecting the completion key Kf. When detecting an operation for selecting the area where the completion key Kf is displayed based on the signal from the operation unit 12b, the display control unit 13a determines that the input item In is the lower item Is to be input. It is determined whether or not the input item is the lower item Is set last. When the completion key Kf is selected in a state where the input screen Dn shown in FIG. 9 is displayed, the display control unit 13a determines that the input target lower item Is is the last lower item Is in the input order. .

  The flow shown in FIG. 10 is a process performed by the display control unit 13a when it is determined that the input subordinate item Is is the last subitem Is in the input order. This is a process for determining whether or not the input of information for the item In has been completed and changing the display according to the determination result.

  First, as a process of step S30, the display control unit 13a determines whether or not the determination result of the error determination by the error determination unit 13b is set to “no error”.

  When it is determined that the determination result of the error determination is set to “no error” (step S30: YES), the display control unit 13a includes the target held by the display control unit 13a as the process of step S31. The information displayed in the input field F of the input field is confirmed and held as information corresponding to the input target lower item Is. When the input field F of the target input field is a blank field, the display control unit 13a determines and holds blank field information, which is information indicating that there is no character information, as information corresponding to the lower item Is. To do.

  In step S32, the display control unit 13a refers to the information determined as information corresponding to the plurality of lower items Is configuring the input item In to be input, and the lower items set as essential items. It is determined whether blank information is held as information corresponding to Is. The fact that the blank information is held indicates that the input field F of the lower item Is is blank, and no information such as characters is input to the lower item Is.

  When it is determined by the process of step S32 that there is no lower item Is for which blank information is held for the lower item Is of the essential item (step S32: YES), the display control unit 13a displays the input item In It is determined that the input of information for is completed, and the process of step S33 is performed. That is, the display control unit 13a displays the input field F of the input item In, which is set next to the input item In, in the input target display area Zb instead of the input field F of the input item In. Let In other words, the display control unit 13a changes the input item In to be input to the next input item In. At the same time, the display control unit 13a sets the input field F of the lower item Is, whose input order is set first, among the lower items Is constituting the new input target input item In as the target input field. That is, the first subitem Is in the input order is set as an input target, and the target display Nt is displayed. Further, the display control unit 13a causes the notification display area Za to display information determined as information corresponding to the input item In that has been determined to be complete, and the input that is newly targeted for input. The progress display Np is changed according to the input order set in the item In.

  On the other hand, when it is determined by the process of step S32 that the subordinate item Is of the essential item has the subordinate item Is holding the blank information (step S32: NO), the display control unit 13a performs the process of step S34. A notification indicating that there is a non-input lower item Is is displayed, and the process is terminated. That is, in this case, the display control unit 13a determines that the input of information for the input item In as the input target is not completed, and does not change the input item In as the input target.

  Further, when it is determined by the process of step S30 that the determination result of the error determination is set to “error present” (step S30: NO), the display control unit 13a does not perform the processes after step S31. End the process. That is, also in this case, the display control unit 13a determines that the input of information for the input item In as the input target is not completed, and does not change the input item In as the input target.

  In FIG. 11, the lower item Is set last in the input order is set as an input target, and matches the format of information to be input in the input fields F of all the lower items Is of the input item In that is the input target. An input screen Dn after the completion key Kf is selected in a state where information is displayed is shown. Specifically, FIG. 11 shows, as shown in FIG. 9, the subordinate item Is of “name” whose input order is set last in the subordinate item Is constituting the input item In of “name”. The input screen Dn after the completion key Kf is selected is shown in a state where characters are displayed in the input fields F of all the subordinate items Is of “last name” and “first name”. In this case, when an operation for selecting the completion key Kf is input to the operation unit 12b, the display control unit 13a determines that the input of information for the input item In of “name” has been completed.

As shown in FIG. 11, the input field F of the input item In displayed in the input target display area Zb has an input order from the input field F of the input item In determined to have completed the input of information. The input item In is changed to the input field F of the input item In set next to the input item In.
Specifically, the input item In displayed in the input target display area Zb is changed from the input item In of “name” to the input item In of “birth date”.

  Then, the input field F of the lower item Is for which the input order is set first among the lower items Is constituting the input item In newly set as the input target is set as the target input field. An object display Nt is displayed on F.

  Specifically, among the sub-items Is of the “year”, “month”, and “day” constituting the input item In of the “birth date”, the sub-item Is of the “year” is set as an input target. A target display Nt is displayed in the input field F of the item Is.

  Therefore, the user can display information in the input field F of the lower item Is in the input item In newly set as the input target by performing an operation of selecting the character key Km after the completion key Kf. .

  In the notification display area Za, a confirmed information display Nc indicating information confirmed as information corresponding to each lower item Is is displayed for the input item In that is determined to have completed the input of information. .

  Specifically, as the confirmed information display Nc, the input item In of “name” which is the input item In determined to have completed the input of information is displayed in the subitem Is of “last name” and “first name”. Information determined as the corresponding information is displayed.

  Further, the progress display Np is changed so that the ratio of the input items In that have been input indicated by the progress display Np increases. The input item In that has already been input is an input item In that is determined to have been input after information corresponding to all the lower items Is constituting the input item In is confirmed.

  Specifically, the progress display Np is configured such that, for example, a plurality of graphic elements are arranged in a straight line, and the color of the graphic element is changed from the graphic element at the end, etc. The ratio of the input item In that has already been determined to have been input. The input screen Dn shown in FIG. 11 indicates that the color of the graphic element at the end is changed and the ratio of the input item In that has been input is increased compared to the input screen Dn shown in FIG. .

  In the input screen Dn shown in FIG. 9, the character key Km displayed in the key display area Zc indicates hiragana, whereas in the input screen Dn shown in FIG. 11, the character key Km indicates a number. In this way, the display control unit 13a changes the character or the like indicated by the character key Km displayed in the key display area Zc in accordance with the format of information to be input to the lower item Is constituting the input item In to be input. May be.

  FIG. 12 shows a case where the lower item Is set last in the input order is an input target, and the completion key is in a state where the lower item Is which is an essential item has a lower item Is in which no information such as characters is input. The input screen Dn after Kf is selected is shown. Specifically, in FIG. 12, among the lower items Is constituting the input item In of “name”, the lower item Is of “first name” whose input order is set last is the input target, and “last name” The character is displayed in the input field F of the lower item Is of “”, while the character is not displayed in the input field F of the lower item Is of the “name”, and after the completion key Kf is selected. The input screen Dn is shown. In this case, when an operation for selecting the completion key Kf is input to the operation unit 12b, the display control unit 13a determines that the input of information for the input item In of “name” is not completed.

As shown in FIG. 12, the input field F of the input item In displayed in the input target display area Zb is not changed, and a blank display Nb that is a notification indicating that there is an uninput sub-item Is is an information Is displayed in the vicinity of the input field F of the sub-item Is that is not input.
Specifically, a blank display Nb is displayed in the vicinity of the input field F of the subordinate item Is of the “name” which is a blank.

  In addition, it is preferable that the display control unit 13a sets the input field F of the lower item Is that is set first in the input field F of the lower item Is that is a blank as the target input field. In other words, it is preferable that the sub-item Is where no information is input is an input target.

  As described above, the display control unit 13a is in a state where the input fields F of all the lower items Is of the input item In to be input are sequentially set as the target input fields, and the last input field F is set as the target input field. When the operation for selecting the completion key Kf is input to the operation unit 12b, it is determined whether or not the input of information for the input item In to be input is completed. As this determination, the display control unit 13a determines that the error determination result for the information input to the lower item Is that is the last input target, that is, the latest error determination result is "no error" And when information, such as a character, is input into all the subordinate items Is of the essential items, it is determined that the input of information for the input item In has been completed. Then, the display control unit 13a changes the input field F of the input item In displayed in the input target display area Zb to the input field F of the next input item In where no information is input, and this input field F Is set in the target input field.

  On the other hand, as the above determination, when the determination result of the latest error determination is “error present”, the display control unit 13a determines that the input of information for the input item In to be input has not been completed. The display control unit 13a completes input of information for the input item In to be input even when there is a sub-item Is in which no information such as characters is input in the sub-item Is of the essential items. Judge that there is no. In these cases, the display control unit 13a does not change the input field F of the input item In displayed in the input target display area Zb.

  If the input item In to be input is changed in this way, the flow of processing by the display control unit 13a may be different from the flow shown in FIG.

  As described above, in the information input device 10 of this embodiment, when it is determined that the input of information for the input item In to be input, that is, the input item In to which the input field F being displayed belongs, has been completed. Only, the input field F of the next input item In is displayed. Therefore, the information for the input item In is compared with the configuration in which the input fields F of the plurality of input items In that require input of information can be freely displayed regardless of the information input status by scrolling the screen or the like. Input leakage is suppressed.

  Further, after information has been input for all input items In, it is determined whether there is an input item In for which no information is input, and information input for each input item In should be input Compared with a configuration in which it is determined whether or not the information matches the information format, and the user is requested to input information corresponding to the input item In that has not been input or information that matches the format, the user can Can be prevented from being complicated, and information can be input efficiently.

  Then, by one operation for selecting the completion key Kf, whether or not the information displayed in the input field F of the input target sub-item Is is confirmed and whether or not the input of information to the input target input item In is completed. Since the input item In to be input is changed based on the determination and the determination result, the convenience of the user when inputting information is high. That is, in the information input device 10 of the present embodiment, after the user finishes inputting information for all the lower items Is of the input target input item In, the user can input a new input target input item In by one operation. The input field F is displayed, and subsequently, information can be input to the sub-item Is of the input item In.

  Therefore, for example, the number of operations required for inputting application information is reduced as compared with a configuration that requires separate operations for determining information corresponding to the input target sub-item Is and changing the input target input item In. can do. For example, as a configuration compared with the configuration of the present embodiment, information is sequentially input to a plurality of lower items Is, and information is also input to the last input target lower item Is. When an operation of selecting a predetermined key is performed, a configuration is assumed in which information input to each lower item Is is displayed and the user is requested to confirm the information. In such a configuration, when the user performs an operation of selecting a key indicating that the information has been confirmed, the input field F of the new input target input item In is displayed, and information input to the input item In is input. Is possible. Therefore, as compared with the present embodiment, the number of operations required for sequentially inputting a plurality of information is increased by one for each input item In.

  In recent years, application information is often composed of information corresponding to a large number of input items In, so even if the number of operations reduced per input item In is one, The burden on the user during input is greatly reduced.

  Further, since the user can grasp the ratio of the input items In that have been input among all the input items In by the progress display Np, how many input items In are not input by scrolling the screen or the like. Even in the configuration of the present embodiment in which it is not possible to confirm, it is possible to know to what extent information input has progressed among all the input items In. Therefore, the user can grasp the guideline for the time required for inputting information, and the convenience for inputting information is improved.

  In addition, since the confirmed information is displayed for the input item In that has been input as the confirmed information display Nc, the user can input the input item In that has been input while inputting information for the input item In that has not been input. It is possible to confirm whether the input information is correct. Therefore, the efficiency of information input is improved as compared with a configuration in which a screen only for confirming information input to the input item In is displayed for each input item In and confirmation of information is required. In addition, the number of input items In to be confirmed at a time is small compared to a configuration in which confirmation of input information is collectively performed after information is input to all input items In. Since the information can be confirmed immediately after the information is input to the input item In, the convenience for the user is improved.

  When there are a plurality of input items In that have already been determined to have been input, the confirmation information display Nc is confirmed as information corresponding to each sub-item Is for all these input items In. Preferably, the displayed information is displayed. When the number of input items In that have been input is large, input information corresponding to a plurality of input items In may be displayed in order by scrolling the input screen Dn.

  Then, when an operation for selecting one of the input items In already displayed displayed as the confirmation information display Nc is input to the operation unit 12b and this operation is detected based on a signal from the operation unit 12b, display control is performed. The unit 13a preferably changes the input field F of the input item In displayed in the input target display area Zb to the input field F of the selected input item In. At this time, the input field F of the lower item Is for which the input order is set first among the lower items Is constituting the selected input item In is set as the target input field, and each of the lower items Is In the input field F, it is only necessary to display information determined as information corresponding to each lower item Is.

  According to such a configuration, when the user notices that there is an error in the input information about the input item In that has been input by confirming the confirmation information display Nc, the user performs an operation of selecting the input item In. Immediately, the information corresponding to the input item In can be corrected. This also improves convenience when inputting information.

  The plurality of input items In are divided into a plurality of categories, and the display control unit 13a completes input of information for each input item In for each of the plurality of input items In included in the category. It is preferable to display a request for confirmation of the information input for each input item In included in the category.

  FIG. 13 shows a confirmation screen Dk which is a screen for such confirmation. In the example shown in FIG. 13, one category is configured from an input item In of “name” and an input item In of “birth date”. When it is determined that the input of information for each input item In has been completed for all two input items In belonging to this category, the display control unit 13a corresponds to each sub-item Is of each input item In. Information confirmed as information is included in the confirmation screen Dk and displayed. In the confirmation screen Dk, according to the notification requesting the user to confirm the displayed information and the result of the user confirming the information, that is, according to the presence or absence of an error in the information corresponding to each input item In Area to select. In this case, when it is determined that the input of the last input item In among the input items In belonging to the category has been completed with the selection of the completion key Kf, the input of the input item In is completed. The confirmation screen Dk is displayed. When an area indicating that there is no error in the information corresponding to each input item In is selected on the confirmation screen Dk, the input screen Dn including the input field F of the next input item In is displayed.

  According to such a configuration, after the information is input to all the input items In, the input items that the user should confirm at a time as compared with the configuration in which a request for confirmation of the input information is collectively performed. Since the number of In is small and the information can be confirmed while the elapsed time after the information is input to the input item In is short, the convenience for the user is improved. In addition, even when information needs to be corrected, it is more complicated for the user to correct the information compared to performing correction after going back to the information entered earlier after inputting a lot of information. Can be reduced. Such a configuration is particularly effective when the application information is configured from information corresponding to a large number of input items In.

As described above, according to the information input device 10 and the information input program of the present embodiment, the effects listed below can be obtained.
(1) Since the input field F of the next input item In is not displayed until it is determined that the input of information to the input item In to which the input field F being displayed belongs is completed, the input of information to the input item In Leakage is suppressed. In addition, after information has been input for all input items In, it is determined whether or not information input has been completed for each input item In, and information input has not been completed. Compared to a configuration that requires input of appropriate information for the determined input item In, the user can be prevented from feeling complicated input of information, and more efficient input of information is possible.

  (2) When an operation for selecting the completion key Kf is detected in a state where the input field F of the input item In being displayed is set as the target input field, the details of the displayed input item In are displayed. When an operation for selecting the completion key Kf is detected in a state where all the input fields F are sequentially set as target input fields and the last input field F is set as a target input field, the following processing is performed. . That is, when it is determined that the input of information to the input item In to which the input field F being displayed belongs is completed, the input field F of the input item In included in the input screen Dn is input to the next input item In. It is changed to the field F, and this input field F is set as the target input field.

  According to such a configuration, the above process is performed by one operation of selecting the completion key Kf. Therefore, the user can input information for the next input item In following the selection of the completion key Kf. . Therefore, the operation required for information input is more than the configuration that requires two or more operations from the completion of the input of information for one input item In to the start of the input of information for the next input item In. Therefore, the convenience of the user is improved, and the efficiency of information input is improved. In addition, when the input item In is composed of a plurality of lower items Is, the final input of the input item In previously displayed in the target input field is determined through the above determination by the operation of selecting the completion key Kf. The field F is changed to the input field F of the newly displayed input item In. Therefore, since the user can input information following the selection of the completion key Kf in a mode suitable for the configuration of the input item In, convenience is improved.

  (3) When there is a sub-item Is where input of information is essential and information is not input among a plurality of sub-items Is of the input item In to which the input field F being displayed belongs, the input item In It is determined that the input of information has not been completed, and a blank display Nb is displayed. According to such a configuration, since it is accurately determined whether or not the input of information for the input item In is completed, omission of input of information is accurately suppressed. In addition, since it is notified that there is a non-input sub-item Is, the user can appropriately input information by inputting information to the non-input sub-item Is.

  (4) When the error determination unit 13b determines that the information input with respect to the input item In does not match the format of the information to be input, that is, “There is an error”, an error display Ne is displayed. When the latest determination result indicates “with error”, it is determined that the input of information for the input item In is not completed. According to such a configuration, the input field F of the next input item In is not displayed unless information that matches the format of information to be input to the input item In is displayed, and information input cannot proceed. Therefore, it is possible to smoothly input accurate information that matches the format of information to be input. Further, since it is notified that the input information does not match the format, the user can appropriately advance the input of information.

  Furthermore, since such an error determination is performed every time the information displayed in the input field F is changed, the user can easily determine whether or not the input information matches the format of the information to be input. Judgment is possible. If the input information does not match the format of the information to be input, the user can immediately correct the information. Therefore, compared with the case where an error is pointed out after the input of a large amount of information, it is possible to reduce the complexity that the user feels when correcting the information.

  (5) With the input field F of the input item In included in the input screen Dn being changed, the input item In that has been determined to have been input as the finalized information display Nc has been input Is included in the input screen Dn and displayed. According to such a configuration, the user can confirm whether or not there is an error in the input information for the input item In that has been input while inputting information for the input item In that has not been input. Therefore, the efficiency of information input is increased. In addition, since the number of input items In to be confirmed at a time is small and the information can be confirmed immediately after the information is input to the input item In, the convenience for the user is improved.

  (6) When an operation for selecting the input item In that has been input that is displayed as the confirmation information display Nc is detected, the input field F of the input item In included in the input screen Dn is displayed in the selected input item In. The input field F is changed. According to such a configuration, when the user notices that there is an error in the input information by confirming the confirmation information display Nc, the user can immediately select the input item In by performing an operation of selecting the input item In. The information corresponding to can be corrected. Therefore, convenience in inputting information is improved.

  (7) As the progress display Np, a display showing the ratio of the input item In that has already been determined that the input of information has been completed is included in the input screen Dn, so the user needs to input information Of the plurality of input items In, it is possible to grasp the ratio of the input items In that have been input with information. Therefore, convenience in inputting information is improved.

  (8) For each category, when it is determined that the input of information for each input item In is completed for all of the plurality of input items In included in the category, for each input item In included in the category A request to confirm the entered information is displayed. According to such a configuration, the number of input items In to be confirmed by the user at a time is small, and the information is confirmed while the elapsed time after inputting information to the input item In is short. This improves the convenience for the user. In addition, it is possible to reduce the complexity that the user feels when correcting information, compared to performing retroactive correction after the input of a large amount of information.

The above embodiment can be implemented with the following modifications.
In the embodiment described above, when the determination result of the error determination by the error determination unit 13b is set to “with error” when changing the input target lower item Is in one input item In, that is, the input target When the information input for the lower item Is does not match the format of the information to be input, the input target is not changed, while the character information is not held as the information in the target input field. That is, when the input field F of the input target lower item Is is blank, the input object is changed. The conditions under which the change of the input target sub-item Is within one input item In is not limited to this.

  For example, when the input item is the lower item Is that is not the last in the input order and the completion key Kf is selected, the determination result of the error determination is set to “with error”, and the lower item of the input target In any case where Is is an indispensable item and the input field F is blank, the input target need not be changed. In this case, when information that does not match the format of information to be input for the input target lower item Is is input, and when the input field F of the input target lower item Is that is an essential item is blank In both cases, the user cannot input information for the next lower item Is.

  Further, for example, when the lower item Is whose input order is not the last is the input target and the completion key Kf is selected, when the determination result of the error determination is set to “with error”, and when the lower level of the input target In any case where the input field F of the item Is is blank, the input target may be changed. In this case, when information that does not match the format of information to be input for the input target lower item Is is input, and when the input field F of the input target lower item Is that is an essential item is blank In both cases, the user can input information for the next lower item Is by selecting the completion key Kf. In such a case, the determination result of the error determination for the information input to each lower item Is is held, and as a determination whether or not the input of information for the input item In is completed, that is, the input order is When the last lower item Is is an input target and the completion key Kf is selected, the display control unit 13a preferably performs the following processing. That is, the display control unit 13a indicates that the error determination result for the information input to each sub-item Is is “no error”, and information such as characters is input to all the sub-items Is of the essential items. When it is determined that the input of information for the input item In has been completed. Then, the display control unit 13a changes the input field F of the input item In displayed in the input target display area Zb to the input field F of the next input item In whose input order is the next. Even with such a configuration, when there is no omission of information with respect to the subordinate items Is of the essential items and information that matches the format of information to be entered with respect to each subordinate item Is is input, the completion key Kf By the selection, the input item In to be input is changed, and the input field F of the input item In that has not been input is displayed.

  In the above embodiment, the error determination by the error determination unit 13b is performed every time the information displayed in the input field F is changed, but the mode of error determination is not limited to this.

  For example, when an operation for selecting the completion key Kf is input to the operation unit 12b, the error determination unit 13b displays information input to the input target lower item Is, that is, an input field that is a target input field. It may be determined whether the information displayed in F matches the format of the information to be input. Specifically, when the lower item Is whose input order is not the last is an input target and the completion key Kf is selected, the above determination is performed by the error determination unit 13b, and the display control unit 13a displays the determination result. In response, the sub-item Is to be input is changed. Further, when the input item is the last lower item Is in the input order and the completion key Kf is selected, the determination by the error determination unit 13b is performed, and the display control unit 13a displays the determination result and the lower items of the essential items. Depending on whether or not there is a blank in the input field F of the item Is, the input item In to be input is changed.

  Further, for example, only when the lower order item Is whose input order is the last is an input target and the completion key Kf is selected, the error determination unit 13b sets each of the plurality of lower items Is constituting the input item In to be input. It may be determined whether or not the input information matches the format of the information to be input. In the display control unit 13a, the result of the error determination regarding the information input to each sub-item Is is “no error”, and information is input to all the sub-items Is of the essential items. When it is determined that the input of information for the input item In is complete, the input item In to be input is changed. In such a configuration, when the lower item Is whose input order is not the last is the input target and the completion key Kf is selected, the display control unit 13a may unconditionally change the input target lower item Is. However, when the input target lower item Is is an essential item and the input field F is blank, the input target lower item Is may not be changed.

Further, the error determination unit 13b may perform error determination in any case when the information displayed in the input field F is changed and when the completion key Kf is selected. For example, when the information displayed in the input field F is changed, the error determination unit 13b determines whether or not the input character type matches the character type to be input, and the completion key Kf When is selected, it may be determined whether or not the number of input characters matches the number of characters to be input.
Moreover, the mode of error determination by the error determination unit 13b may be different for each lower item Is.

  In the above embodiment, the display control unit 13a determines that the determination result of the error determination for the information input to the lower item Is that is the last input target is “no error” and the lower item of the essential item When information such as characters was input to all of Is, it was determined that the input of information for the input item In was completed. The condition that the display control unit 13a determines that the input of information for the input item In is completed is not limited to this. For example, error determination by the error determination unit 13b is not performed, and the display control unit 13a can display information such as characters in all the subordinate items Is of the essential items regardless of the format of the input information. You may determine with the input of the information with respect to the said input item In having been completed.

  In short, the display control unit 13a confirms that the information displayed in the input field F satisfies the condition of the information to be displayed in the input field F being displayed. Can be handled as the completion of the input of information. The information conditions include, for example, character codes such as numbers and katakana, the number of characters, and presence / absence of character information. For example, when the condition of the information to be displayed in the input field F being displayed is that there is character information, the information displayed in the input field F is displayed regardless of the format if characters are displayed. Satisfies this condition. For example, when the condition of the information to be displayed in the input field F being displayed is that there is no number or character information, if the number is displayed or is blank, the information is displayed in the input field F. Information meets this condition. In this case, the lower item Is to which the input field F belongs is a non-essential item.

  In the above embodiment, when the input item is the last lower item Is in the input order and the completion key Kf is selected, the display control unit 13a determines whether or not the input of information for the input item In has been completed. Judgment was made. The case where the display control unit 13a performs the above determination is not limited to such a case. For example, the display control unit 13a, when the lower item Is whose input order is the last is the input target, and the determination result of the error determination for the information input to the lower item Is becomes “no error” Specifically, for example, the above determination may be performed when a number of digits to be input is input to the lower item Is.

Further, for example, as shown in FIG. 14, when the information for the lower order item Is in the last input order can be input by selection as in the “sex” lower order item Is, the candidate key Ki indicating the selection candidate is The display control unit 13a may make the above determination when an operation for selecting one of the candidate keys Ki displayed on the key display area Zc is input to the operation unit 12b.
These candidate keys Ki are displayed in a drum roll shape, that is, in a form in which a plurality of selection candidates are arranged on the surface of a rotating cylinder, and information input to the lower item Is by rotating the cylinder is displayed. It may be selected.

  The display control unit 13a is not limited to the above determination when changing the input item In as an input target, but also when changing the lower item Is as the input target within one input item In, regardless of the selection of the completion key Kf. Indicates that when the determination result of the error determination for the information input to the input target lower item Is is “no error” or when any candidate key Ki is selected, the input target lower item Is The item Is may be changed. When information about the lower item Is is input by selecting the candidate key Ki, the display control unit 13a responds to the lower item Is when an operation for selecting the candidate key Ki is input to the operation unit 12b. What is necessary is just to fix and hold the information to perform.

  In the key display area Zc, when the operation for selecting the key is input to the operation unit 12b, the key that the display control unit 13a performs the same processing as that performed when the completion key Kf is selected is completed. It may be displayed in addition to the key Kf. That is, a plurality of first areas may be displayed in the key display area Zc. In short, when one operation for selecting any one of the first regions is performed, the display control unit 13a may perform the processing shown in FIGS.

  In addition, the process performed by the display control unit 13a when changing the input target sub-item Is in one input item In, that is, the process shown in FIG. 7 and the display control unit 13a when changing the input item In being the input target. The process to be performed, that is, the process illustrated in FIG. 10 may be performed in accordance with selection of a different key.

  In the above embodiment, on the input screen Dn, the notification display area Za is arranged in the upper part, the input target display area Zb is arranged in the middle part, and the key display area Zc is arranged in the lower part. However, the arrangement of these areas is not limited to this. .

  The display mode of the progress display Np may be different from that of the above-described embodiment, as long as it is a display indicating the ratio of the input item In that has already been determined that the input of information is completed among the plurality of input items In. Good. For example, the progress display Np may indicate such a ratio by a number. Further, the progress display Np does not have to be changed every time the input item In to be input is changed, and may be changed every time input of information for a small number of input items In is completed. In short, the progress display Np may be a display that shows in detail the ratio of the input items In that have been input based on the input order set in the input items In that are newly input. A rough display may be used.

  If the operation unit 12b is a touch sensor that accepts contact with the operation unit 12b as an operation and outputs a signal indicating the position of the operation, the information input device 10 may be a smartphone or a tablet terminal. It may be a music player or the like. In general, such a device has a smaller display surface on which information is displayed than a personal computer, and the number of input items In that can be displayed at a time is small. In the configuration in which the field F can be freely displayed, the user is less likely to notice that there is an input item In in which no information is input. Therefore, by applying the configuration of the present embodiment to such an apparatus, an effect of suppressing information input leakage can be highly obtained. Further, among these devices, smartphones tend to have a particularly small display surface. Therefore, when the configuration of the smartphone according to the present embodiment is applied, it is particularly useful.
