  The first conversion means 51A converts the different types of application data acquired via the network 300 into unified application data having a unified layout, a unified data format, and a unified description method. Is. The unified layout, the unified data format, and the unified description method are preset for conversion by the first conversion means 51A. Further, the first conversion means 51 </ b> A temporarily stores application data transmitted from the application data transmission means 31 in the data storage unit 60.

  More specifically, the first conversion means 51A decrypts the application data transmitted from the application data transmission means 31, and based on the decrypted application data, the unified application data is obtained using a plurality of first conversion definition files. To create. The plurality of first conversion definition files include conversion parameters for a second electronic application support program described later, and are stored in the data storage unit 60.

  The plurality of first conversion definition files correspond to each of a plurality of types of application data. That is, the plurality of first conversion definition files correspond to each of the plurality of linkage systems that provide the application data creation unit 22. The plurality of first conversion definition files correspond to each type of electronic application procedure.

  For example, some of the application data item names may be different for each linkage system. In other words, as an example, “employee name”, “employee name”, “employee name”, etc. are substantially the same item names, and there is no problem at the stage of creating application data. May be adopted. However, at the stage of creating the application form, for example, a process of unifying the “employee name” is necessary.

  For example, the description method of item information may differ for every cooperation system. That is, as an example, item information corresponding to an item such as “application date” indicates a date of “June 24, 2016”, and “20160624”, “2016624”, “160624”, “h280624”, etc. for each linkage system. Different description methods may be used. The difference in the description method of the item information is not a problem at the application data creation stage, but at the stage of creating the application form, for example, a process of unifying into “20160624” is necessary.

  In this way, the application data creation means 22 of the cooperation system creates application data such as a unique layout. For this reason, the first conversion means 51A is configured to identify the cooperation system from the acquired application data, read the first conversion definition file corresponding to the identified cooperation system from the data storage unit 60, and perform the conversion process. Yes. For this reason, the electronic application support server 40 can individually cope with a cooperation system that can cooperate with the electronic application support system 100.

  The application data is created for each type of electronic application procedure, and includes different information for each type of procedure. For this reason, as described above, the plurality of first conversion definition files are configured to correspond to the respective types of electronic application procedures. For this reason, the electronic application support server 40 can individually cope with each procedure of the electronic application.

  That is, the first conversion means 51A has a function of identifying the type of application data, and creates unified application data using a first conversion definition file corresponding to the identified type. And in the electronic application support server 40, since the 1st conversion definition file can be rewritten through the network 300 etc., it can respond flexibly to the increase / decrease change of a cooperation system. In addition, even when information required in the application form is added or deleted, it can be dealt with by rewriting the first conversion definition file.

  The second conversion means 51B converts the unified application data created by the first conversion means 51A and creates an application form that conforms to the electronic application system of the public institution. More specifically, the second conversion means 51B converts the format and data format of the unified application data and creates an application form.

  Here, the electronic application system of the public institution has a plurality of procedures that allow electronic application, and an application form and the like are provided for each type of electronic application procedure. Therefore, the 2nd conversion means 51B is comprised so that an application may be created using the some 2nd conversion definition file corresponding to each of the kind of procedure of unified application data. The plurality of second conversion definition files are stored in the data storage unit 60. The plurality of second conversion definition files correspond to each electronic application procedure, and include conversion parameters for a second electronic application support program described later.

  That is, the second conversion means 51B has a function of identifying the type of procedure of the unified application data, and creates an application using the second conversion definition file corresponding to the identified type of procedure. And in the electronic application support server 40, since the 2nd conversion definition file can be rewritten through the network 300 etc., it can respond flexibly with respect to the change of the format etc. of an application form.

  Further, the second conversion means 51B temporarily stores the created application form in the data storage unit 60. Then, the second conversion unit 51B transmits a storage signal indicating that the application form is temporarily stored to the application form transmission unit 52. However, the second conversion unit 51B may transmit the created application form to the application form transmission unit 52.

  When receiving the storage signal from the second conversion unit 51B, the application form transmission unit 52 reads the application form from the data storage unit 60, encrypts the read application form, and returns it to the signature processing unit 32. If the application form is directly transmitted from the second conversion means 51B to the application form transmission means 52, the application form transmission means 52 encrypts the transmitted application form and returns it to the signature processing means 32. Become. Further, the second conversion unit 51B is configured to delete the application data and the application form temporarily stored in the data storage unit 60 after returning the application form to the signature processing unit 32.

  Here, the information included in the first conversion definition file and the information included in the second conversion definition file do not depend on each other. For this reason, by rewriting some of the multiple first conversion definition files and multiple second conversion definition files, depending on the degree of change of the application form etc. regarding the electronic application and the degree of increase / decrease change of the linkage system A flexible response can be realized.

  For example, when the layout or the like of the application data of the cooperation system is changed, or when the number of cooperation systems is increased, it can be dealt with by rewriting the first conversion definition file. In addition, when the form of the application form is changed, or when the number of application form forms increases due to an increase in the number of procedures that can be electronically applied, it can be dealt with by rewriting the second conversion definition file. When the information required in the application form increases, it can be dealt with by rewriting part of the first conversion definition file and the second conversion definition file. For example, it is a case where the description of my number becomes obligatory with the enforcement of the my number system.

  The application form transmission unit 52 temporarily stores the signature application form transmitted from the signature processing unit 32 in the data storage unit 60. The application form transmitting unit 52 decrypts the signature application form transmitted from the signature processing unit 32 and transmits the decrypted signature application form to the public institution server 200. The application form transmitting means 52 is configured to collectively transmit a plurality of signature application forms to the public institution server 200 when a plurality of signature application forms are transmitted from the signature processing means 32 at once. Then, the application form transmitting means 52 is configured to delete the temporarily stored signature application form after transmitting the signature application form to the public institution server 200.

  Further, the application form transmission means 52 acquires the reception information returned from the public institution server 200 in response to the transmission of the signature application form, and transfers the acquired reception information to the inquiry processing means 33. The reception information is configured by an arbitrary number, a code such as an alphabet, or a combination thereof. For example, from the e-Gov electronic application system, a transmission number and an arrival number are transmitted as reception information.

  The inquiry relay unit 53 relays communication between the inquiry processing unit 33 and the public institution server 200. That is, the inquiry relay unit 53 transfers the inquiry notification transmitted from the inquiry processing unit 33 to the public institution server 200 and transfers the status report notification transmitted from the public institution server 200 to the inquiry processing unit 33. is there.

  The document acquisition processing unit 54 acquires a document corresponding to the reception information from the public institution server 200 when a document acquisition command is notified from the inquiry processing unit 33. At that time, the document acquisition processing unit 54 temporarily stores the acquired document in the data storage unit 60. When a document acquisition command regarding batch application is notified from the inquiry processing unit 33, the document acquisition processing unit 54 acquires a document corresponding to each reception information included in the document acquisition command from the public institution server 200 in a batch. It is configured as follows.

  The document acquisition processing unit 54 encrypts the acquired document and uploads it to the confidential file exchange storage unit 71. When uploading to the confidential file exchange storage unit 71 is completed, the document acquisition processing unit 54 deletes the temporarily stored document. Further, the document acquisition processing unit 54 transmits a document storage notification indicating that the document has been uploaded to the acquisition unit 34B.

  The location information creating unit 55A creates location information in response to a location information transmission command transmitted from the address selecting unit 34D. In the present embodiment, the location information creating unit 55A creates location information including access information that is URL (Uniform Resource Locator) information related to the location of the document and a password associated with the access information. The access information is URL information for accessing the authentication screen, and the password associated with the access information is a password that is requested to be input on the authentication screen.

  The access information may be, for example, a one-time URL that is URL information in which the expiration date is set to 30 days and the number of accesses is limited to one. The password associated with the access information may be a one-time password that is valid only once. However, the expiration date of the one-time URL as access information may be set shorter than 30 days or may be set longer than 30 days. Further, the access information may be URL information in which the number of accesses is limited to two or more.

  The mail transmission unit 55B transmits an e-mail including the location information created by the location information creation unit 55A to the email address selected by the address selection unit 34D.

  The authentication processing means 72 displays an authentication screen on the display unit of the distribution destination terminal 80 that has accessed the URL relating to the location of the document with a Web browser. The authentication screen is based on basic authentication, and the authentication processing means 72 performs authentication processing based on basic authentication. That is, the authentication processing unit 72 reads information on the authentication screen from the data storage unit 60 and displays the authentication screen when the URL related to the location of the document is clicked on the distribution destination terminal 80.

  The authentication processing means 72 requests input of a password associated with access information and preset authentication information on the authentication screen. The authentication information is a unique ID or the like set in the electronic application support system 100, and is presented in advance to the application target person. The authentication processing unit 72 permits the download of the distribution document from the confidential file exchange storage unit 71 when the password and the authentication information associated with the access information are input on the authentication screen. As described above, the electronic application support system 100 enhances security by increasing the complexity of information necessary for access. The distribution destination terminal 80 permitted to download can download a specific distribution document from the confidential file exchange storage means 71.

  After the distribution destination terminal 80 downloads the distribution document, the authentication processing unit 72 transmits a deletion instruction to the confidential file exchange storage unit 71 when the storage time set to 24 hours elapses, for example. The delivery document in the storage means 71 is deleted. Further, the authentication processing means 72 transmits a delete command to the confidential file exchange storage means 71 when the storage period set for 30 days elapses without downloading the distribution document, and the confidential file exchange storage means 71. The document for distribution is deleted.

  Here, the address table may be table information in which identification information of each of a plurality of application subjects and two mail addresses are associated with each other. Then, the address selection unit 34D may select two mail addresses of the application target person corresponding to the identification information from the address table. Then, the mail transmitting means 55B transmits an e-mail including URL information related to the location of the document to one of the mail addresses selected by the address selecting means 34D, and the other mail address selected by the address selecting means 34D. An e-mail including a password may be transmitted.

  In this way, when one application target person manages two distribution destination terminals 80, an e-mail including URL information regarding the location of the document is transmitted to one distribution destination terminal 80, and the other It is possible to sort information such as sending an e-mail including a password to the distribution destination terminal 80. That is, the mail transmission means 55B can request the input of the password transmitted to the other distribution destination terminal 80 on the authentication screen of the one distribution destination terminal 80. Therefore, according to the electronic application support system 100 having such a configuration, security can be further improved.

  As described above, the data storage unit 60 stores a plurality of first conversion definition files, a plurality of second conversion definition files, an address table, authentication screen information, and the like. The data storage unit 43 stores a second electronic application support program. The second electronic application support program causes the CPU 40A as a computer to function as the data conversion processing unit 51, the application form transmission unit 52, the inquiry relay unit 53, the document acquisition processing unit 54, the document provision unit 55, and the authentication processing unit 72. It is a program for. The electronic application support system 100 may realize at least one of the functions of the electronic application processing unit 50 by hardware such as a circuit device.

(Application processing method)
FIG. 7 is a flowchart showing the operation of the application process related to the electronic application among the operations of the electronic application support system 100 of FIG. FIG. 8 is a schematic diagram illustrating the form of application processing by the electronic application support system 100 of FIG. Based on FIG.7 and FIG.8, the application processing method of the electronic application support methods by the electronic application support system 100 is demonstrated.

  Here, an application processing method when the electronic application support server 40 makes an electronic application in cooperation with each of the three user terminals 10 will be described with reference to FIG. Each of the three user terminals 10 has one of data creation processing units 20A to 20C of different cooperation systems. The data creation processing units 20A to 20C each create different types of application data. The functional configuration of the data creation processing units 20A to 20C is the same as that of the data creation processing unit 20 in FIG.

  When the input unit 12 receives an input operation instructing start of creation of application data, the input unit 12 outputs an operation signal indicating the received operation content to the screen providing unit 21 and the application data creating unit 22. The screen providing means 21 displays an input setting screen for creating application data on the display unit 11 in response to an operation signal from the input unit 12 (step S101).

  Then, the application data creation unit 22 creates application data in cooperation with the screen providing unit 21 based on a user input operation corresponding to the input setting screen. That is, as shown in FIG. 8, the data creation processing unit 20A creates application data in XML format, and the data creation processing units 20B and 20C create application data in CSV format. Here, the application data created by the data creation processing unit 20B and the application data created by the data creation processing unit 20C have the same data format, but the order of items is different, and the whole is different. (Step S102).

  Next, the identification information adding unit 23 adds the identification information of the application target person to the application data created by the application data creating unit 22 (step S103). Then, the identification information adding means 23 encrypts the application data to which the identification information is added and transmits it to the first conversion means 51A of the electronic application support server 40 (step S104).

  Next, the first conversion means 51A decrypts the application data transmitted from the application data creation means 22. At that time, the first conversion means 51A temporarily stores the application data in the data storage unit 60. Then, the first conversion means 51A converts the decrypted application data into unified application data having a unified layout, a unified data format, and a unified description method.

  In the example of FIG. 8, the first conversion definition files 61A_1 to 61A_n, 61B_1 to 61B_n, and 61C_1 to 61C_n are shown as a plurality of first conversion definition files that the first conversion unit 51A reads from the data storage unit 60 for explanation. Yes. It is assumed that the data creation processing units 20A to 20B are provided from different cooperative systems. The first conversion definition files 61A_1 to 61A_n correspond to the data creation processing unit 20A, the first conversion definition files 61B_1 to 61B_n correspond to the data creation processing unit 20B, and the first conversion definition files 61C_1 to 61C_n It corresponds to the processing unit 20C. The first conversion definition files 61A_1 to 61A_n, the first conversion definition files 61B_1 to 61B_n, and the first conversion definition files 61C_1 to 61C_n correspond to different electronic application procedures, respectively.

  That is, the first conversion unit 51A unifies the application data transmitted from the data creation processing unit 20A using any one of the first conversion definition files 61A_1 to 61A_n according to the type of procedure of the application data. Convert to application data. The first conversion unit 51A uses the application data transmitted from the data creation processing unit 20B as the unified application data using any one of the first conversion definition files 61B_1 to 61B_n according to the type of procedure of the application data. Convert to The first conversion means 51A uses the application data transmitted from the data creation processing unit 20C as the unified application data using any one of the first conversion definition files 61C_1 to 61C_n according to the type of procedure of the application data. (Step S105).

  Subsequently, the second conversion means 51B converts the unified application data using a plurality of second conversion definition files, and creates an application form.

  Here, in the example of FIG. 8, for the sake of explanation, the second conversion definition files 62 </ b> _ <b> 1 to 62 </ b> _n are shown as a plurality of second conversion definition files that the second conversion unit 51 </ b> B reads from the data storage unit 60. The second conversion definition files 62_1 to 62_n are provided for each type of procedure that can be applied to the electronic application system of a public institution. The second conversion means 51B selects one of the second conversion definition files 62_1 to 62_n according to the type of procedure of the unified application data transmitted from the first conversion means 51A, and selects the selected second Conversion processing is executed using the conversion definition file 62_k (k = 1, 2,..., N). Thereby, the 2nd conversion means 51B produces the application according to the kind of procedure of an electronic application (step S106).

  Next, the second conversion unit 51B temporarily stores the created application form in the data storage unit 60 and transmits a storage signal to the application form transmission unit 52. The application form transmitting unit 52 acquires an application form corresponding to the storage signal transmitted from the second conversion unit 51B from the data storage unit 60, encrypts the acquired application form, and signs processing unit 32 of the communication library unit 30. Return to Then, the second conversion means 51B deletes the temporarily stored application data and application form (step S107).

  Next, the signature processing means 32 decrypts the application form returned from the second conversion means 51B, and creates a signature application form by adding the electronic signature information to the decrypted application form (step S108). Then, the signature processing means 32 encrypts the created signature application form and transmits it to the application form transmission means 52 (step S109).

  Next, the application form transmission unit 52 temporarily stores the signature application form transmitted from the signature processing unit 32 in the data storage unit 60. In addition, the application form transmission means 52 decrypts the signature application form and transmits it to the electronic application system of the public institution. Then, the application form transmission means 52 deletes the temporarily stored signature application form (step S110).

  Further, the application form transmission means 52 acquires the reception information transmitted from the public institution server 200 in response to the transmission of the signature application form, and transfers the acquired reception information to the inquiry processing means 33 (step S111). The inquiry processing unit 33 stores the reception information transmitted from the application form transmitting unit 52 in the storage unit 13 (step S112). Subsequently, the associating unit 34A associates the reception information stored in the storage unit 13 with the identification information in the address table (step S113).

(Document acquisition method)
FIG. 9 is a flowchart showing the operation of the document acquisition process among the operations of the electronic application support system 100 of FIG. Based on FIG. 9, the document acquisition method of the electronic application support methods by the electronic application support system 100 will be described.

  The inquiry processing means 33 is connected to the public institution via the inquiry relay means 53 in response to a user's operation via the input unit 12 or when a certain time has elapsed from the application to the public institution server 200. An inquiry about the application status is made to the server 200 (step S201). The inquiry processing unit 33 stands by until a status report notification indicating completion of document creation is returned from the public institution server 200 (step S202 / No). Then, when a status report notification indicating completion of document creation is returned from the public institution server 200 (Yes in step S202), the inquiry processing unit 33 notifies the document acquisition processing unit 54 of a document acquisition command (step S203). ).

  When the document acquisition command is notified from the inquiry processing unit 33, the document acquisition processing unit 54 acquires a document corresponding to the reception information included in the document acquisition command from the public institution server 200. At that time, the document acquisition processing unit 54 temporarily stores the acquired document in the data storage unit 60 (step S204). Next, the document acquisition processing unit 54 encrypts the acquired document and uploads it to the confidential file exchange storage unit 71. Then, the document acquisition processing unit 54 deletes the primary stored document (step S205). The document acquisition processing unit 54 transmits a document storage notification indicating that the document has been uploaded to the acquisition unit 34B (step S206).

  When the acquisition unit 34B receives the document storage notification from the document acquisition processing unit 54, the acquisition unit 34B downloads and decrypts the document from the confidential file exchange storage unit 71 (step S207). Then, the acquisition unit 34B causes the confidential file exchange storage unit 71 to delete the document. That is, the acquisition unit 34B transmits a deletion command to the confidential file exchange storage unit 71, and the confidential file exchange storage unit 71 deletes the downloaded document in response to the deletion command (step S208).

(Document delivery method)
FIG. 10 is a flowchart showing the operation of the public document distribution process among the operations of the electronic application support system 100 of FIG. FIG. 11 is a schematic view illustrating a form of document distribution processing by the electronic application support system 100 of FIG. Based on FIG.10 and FIG.11, the document delivery method of the electronic application support methods by the electronic application support system 100 is demonstrated. Here, based on FIG. 11, in a situation where one application target person manages two distribution destination terminals 80A and 80B, an electronic mail including a one-time URL is transmitted to the distribution destination terminal 80A, and the distribution destination terminal Description will be made assuming that an e-mail including a one-time password is transmitted to 80B.

  The selection processing unit 34C displays a list of the documents acquired by the acquisition unit 34B on the selection processing screen of the display unit 11 in units of document files (step S301). Next, the selection processing unit 34 </ b> C accepts a document file selection operation via the input unit 12. That is, as shown in FIG. 11, the user who manages the user terminal 10 can select a document file to be provided to the application target person from among documents including a plurality of document files on the selection processing screen. (Step S302).

  Next, when the user instructs distribution via the input unit 12, the selection processing unit 34C encrypts the selected document file as a distribution document and uploads it to the confidential file exchange storage unit 71 (step S303). The address selection unit 34D selects two mail addresses of the application target person corresponding to the reception information from the address table by checking the reception information transferred from the application form transmission unit 52 against the address table (step S304). Then, the address selecting unit 34D transmits a location information transmission command including the selected mail address and reception information to the location information creating unit 55A (step S305).

  Next, the location information creating means 55A creates a one-time URL for accessing the authentication screen and a one-time password associated with the one-time URL as the location information (step S306). Then, the mail transmission unit 55B transmits an electronic mail including the location information to the two mail addresses selected by the address selection unit 34D. That is, the mail transmission unit 55B transmits an electronic mail including a one-time URL to the distribution destination terminal 80A corresponding to one of the mail addresses selected by the address selection unit 34D. Further, the mail transmission means 55B transmits an electronic mail including the one-time password to the distribution destination terminal 80B corresponding to the other mail address selected by the address selection means 34D (step S307).

  Then, the authentication processing means 72 stands by until there is an access to the one-time URL (Step S308 / No). When the application target person accesses the one-time URL from the distribution destination terminal 80A (step S308 / Yes), the authentication processing means 72 displays an authentication screen on the display unit of the distribution destination terminal 80A (step S309).

  Next, the authentication processing means 72 requests input of a one-time password transmitted to the distribution destination terminal 80B and input of authentication information such as a unique ID of the electronic application support system 100 on the authentication screen. When the one-time password and the authentication information are input on the authentication screen, the authentication processing unit 72 collates the one-time password and the authentication information to determine whether the input information is correct (step S310). ).

  If the input one-time password and authentication information are correct (step S310 / Yes), the authentication processing means 72 permits the distribution destination terminal 80A to download the distribution document. That is, the authentication processing unit 72 displays permission information indicating permission to download the distribution document on the display unit of the distribution destination terminal 80A (step S311). For example, the authentication processing unit 72 displays a download button as permission information on the display unit of the distribution destination terminal 80. Then, when the application target person presses the download button by a mouse operation or a touch operation, the decrypted distribution document is downloaded to the distribution destination terminal 80A via the Internet. The authentication processing unit 72 transmits a delete command to the confidential file exchange storage unit 71 when the storage time has elapsed after the distribution destination terminal 80A downloads the distribution document. Then, the confidential file exchange storage unit 71 deletes the distribution document in response to the deletion command (step S312).

  On the other hand, if the input one-time password and authentication information are incorrect (step S310 / No), the authentication processing means 72 refuses to download the distribution document to the distribution destination terminal 80A. In other words, the authentication processing means 72 causes the display unit of the distribution destination terminal 80A to display refusal information indicating that the distribution document download is not permitted. In the present embodiment, the authentication processing means 72 displays the authentication screen again as rejection information (step S312).

  Note that the authentication processing means 72 transmits a delete command to the confidential file exchange storage means 71 when the storage period has passed without the distribution document being downloaded, such as when there is no access to the one-time URL. The confidential file exchange storage unit 71 deletes the distribution document in response to the deletion command from the authentication processing unit 72.

  In step S312, the case where the authentication processing unit 72 displays the authentication screen again as the rejection information is exemplified, but the present invention is not limited to this. For example, the authentication processing means 72 may display a retransmission request button for requesting retransmission of location information as rejection information on the display unit of the distribution destination terminal 80A. Then, when the application subject presses the retransmission request button, the process may return to step S306. That is, the authentication processing unit 72 may notify the document providing unit 55 of a location information retransmission request for requesting retransmission of location information.

  As described above, the electronic application support server 40 converts the application data into the unified application data and then converts the unified application data into the application form. The contents of the two-stage conversion process can be individually adjusted, such as adjusting the contents and adjusting the process contents by the second conversion means 51B if there is a minute change in the electronic application system. More specifically, the electronic application support server 40 uses the first conversion definition file 61 and the second conversion definition file 62 that do not depend on each other to execute a two-step conversion process. A flexible response according to the degree and the degree of increase / decrease change of the cooperation system can be realized. Therefore, according to the electronic application support server 40, it is possible to improve the development efficiency when there is a change in the format of the application form related to the electronic application and the increase / decrease change of the cooperation system, and the development cost can be reduced.

  In other words, in the past, each time a law revision of an application destination was made, software and the like were developed and distributed to users. Since part of the one conversion definition file 61 and the second conversion definition file 62 can be rewritten, the cost can be reduced without taking time and effort.

  Conventionally, the entire software and the like has been developed even when the number of cooperation systems increases, the layout of the application data of the cooperation systems changes, etc. By rewriting only the definition file 61, it is possible to improve development efficiency and reduce costs in such a case. That is, according to the electronic application support server 40, it is possible to absorb the gap between the cooperation systems in the related companies and flexibly cope with the increase and change of the cooperation systems.

  Further, conventionally, even when the application form of the electronic application system is changed or the number of procedures for electronic application is increased, the entire software has been developed, but the electronic application support server 40 By rewriting only the second conversion definition file 62, it is possible to improve the development efficiency and reduce the cost in such a case.

  However, even when the information required for the application form increases, the electronic application support server 40 does not depend on each other because the first conversion definition file 61 and the second conversion definition file 62 do not depend on each other. Therefore, it is possible to improve the development efficiency and reduce the cost.

  Also, the electronic application support system 100 creates application data at the user terminal 10, creates an application form at the electronic application support server 40, and transmits it to the public institution server 200. That is, since the electronic application support system 100 separates the application data creation side and the application form creation and application side, modules such as software can be separately developed. Therefore, according to the electronic application support system 100, it is possible to reduce the number of man-hours for the test at the time of module development, so that the response speed can be increased.

  Furthermore, since the electronic application support system 100 stores each conversion definition file for converting application data into an application form in the electronic application support server 40 composed of a cloud server, etc., There is no need to distribute modules to users even when there is an increase / decrease in the linkage system. For this reason, according to the electronic application support system 100, it is possible to reduce the cost of responding to changes in the form of the application form and changes in the cooperation system.

  In the technique of Patent Document 1, it is necessary to artificially add electronic signature information. However, since the electronic application support system 100 can automatically add electronic signature information, it is convenient for the user. Improvements can be made.

  Here, when an electronic signature using an IC card is requested, it is necessary to perform a signature process on the user terminal 10 side to which the card reader is connected. In this regard, the electronic application support system 100 returns the created application form to the user terminal 10 once and adds the electronic signature information at the stage where the electronic application support server 40 has created an application form suitable for the electronic application system. It is like that. For this reason, according to the electronic application support system 100, it can respond to various required signature formats.

  However, the electronic application system of a public institution requires a different signature format for each procedure, and there are cases where electronic signature information can be added to an application form using a file format electronic certificate. Therefore, the signature processing unit 32 may be provided as an internal configuration of the electronic application processing unit 50 when the electronic signature based on the electronic certificate in the file format can be used. That is, the second electronic application support program may cause the CPU 40 </ b> A as a computer to function as the signature processing means 32. The electronic application support system 100 having such a configuration adds the electronic signature information by the electronic application support server 40 without returning the application created by the electronic application support server 40 to the user terminal 10 and is publicly available. It can be transmitted to the engine server 200.

  In addition, the electronic application support system 100 can automatically perform all the processes after outputting the application data from the data creation processing unit 20. For this reason, according to the electronic application support system 100, sensitive information, such as my number, can be processed safely.

  In addition, the electronic application support system 100 creates an application form after adding the identification information of the application target person to the application data, selects the e-mail address of the application target person corresponding to the identification information from the address table. To send information related to the location of the document. Therefore, according to the electronic application support system 100, since artificial processing can be reduced, a document transmitted from a public institution in response to an electronic application can be sent to each application target person in a highly secure environment. It can be provided efficiently.

  In other words, when a document is acquired from the public institution server 200, if it is a conventional electronic application support system, it is necessary to artificially associate the email address of the application target person with the document. In this regard, the electronic application support system 100 selects the mail addresses of a plurality of applicants based on the identification information added at the stage of creating the application data, and automatically transmits the location information to the selected mail addresses. be able to. Therefore, the electronic application support system 100 does not need to use personal information of an individual name or address when selecting an e-mail address of an application target person, and it is not necessary to intervene artificial processing. Leakage can be prevented and the efficiency of document distribution work to individuals can be improved.

  In addition, when the electronic application support system 100 acquires a document related to the same procedure of a plurality of application subjects at once, when receiving a selection operation on a document of one application subject, It has a function to reflect on the remaining documents of applicants. For this reason, according to the electronic application support system 100, a user's effort can be saved.

  In addition, the electronic application support system 100 transmits access information by e-mail and requests authentication information and password input on the authentication screen to increase the complexity of information necessary for access, thereby enhancing security. can do. In addition, the electronic application support system 100 can improve security by adopting a one-time URL as access information and adopting a one-time password as a password associated with the access information. Furthermore, if the electronic application support system 100 transmits the access information and the password to different mail addresses, the security can be further improved.

  In addition, each unit of the communication library unit 30, each unit of the electronic application processing unit 50, and the authentication processing unit 72 deletes each temporarily stored data after predetermined processing, and each data including confidential information Is configured not to save more than necessary. Therefore, according to the electronic application support system 100, it is possible to reduce the risk of information leakage and to effectively use memory resources.

  Here, the embodiments described above are preferred specific examples in the electronic application support server, the electronic application support method, and the electronic application support program, and the technical scope of the present invention is not limited to these aspects.

Further, the user terminal 10 may have at least one of each means of the electronic application processing unit 50 and the authentication processing means 72. In other words, the first electronic application support program and the second electronic application support program may be partially reconfigured. When the user terminal 10 is configured to include all of the electronic application processing unit 50, the data storage unit 60, and the confidential information processing unit 70, the storage unit 13 stores the first electronic application support program and the second electronic application support program. An electronic application support program configured in combination with the electronic application support program is stored.

  1 and 8 exemplify the case where three user terminals 10 cooperate with the electronic application support server 40. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and the electronic application support server 40 includes one or two electronic application support servers 40. Alternatively, electronic application support processing may be performed in cooperation with four or more user terminals 10. In addition, FIG. 8 illustrates the case where one cooperation system is stored in one user terminal 10, but not limited to this, a plurality of cooperation systems are stored in one user terminal 10.
