(P in FIG. 4).
The basic information TBL 40A, the history information TBL 40B, and the history information condition TBL 40C are updated as needed when information is changed or added.

  As shown in FIG. 5, in the employee history diagram 20 displayed on the display unit 14, a basic information display area 201 in which basic information about employees is displayed in the upper part, and history information 26 for each management item is displayed in the central part. A history information display area 202 is provided, and a search area 28 for searching for another employee having history information 26 that is the same as or similar to the history information 26 is provided at the bottom.

In the basic information display area 201, as the basic information, the company, company, office, employee number, name, gender, date of birth, and age are displayed.
In the history information display area 202, the management items of the history information 26 are arranged on the vertical axis 21, and the time axis from the past to the future is arranged on the horizontal axis 22.
The vertical axis 21 is roughly divided into three attributes. Specifically, there are an announcement 211 issued from the company to the employee, an application 212 for reporting from the employee to the company, and office work / operation 213 handled by personnel. It is divided.

In the announcement 211, the company, business office, affiliation, title, job type, and job class are displayed as management items of the history information 26, and in the application 212, the employee residence, commuting route, family structure, family address, official qualification, The language level is displayed as a management item of the history information 26. In the office work / operation 213, social insurance, resident tax, business evaluation, and retirement allowance are displayed as management items of the history information 26.
On the horizontal axis 22, the time axes of the past 221, the current 222, and the future 223 are displayed in order from the left in the history diagram 20. The past 221 refers to the period before the previous period, the present 222 refers to the current period, and the future 223 refers to the period after the next period. Regarding the history information 26 of the past 221, the scale of the period can be adjusted by the slider 23 provided at the upper center of the history information display area 202. Specifically, the unit display length of the past 221 on the horizontal axis 22 is determined by sliding the slider 23 from left to right, so that half a month, one month, two months, three months, four months, five months, Months, 10 months, 15 months, and 20 months are changed.
Note that the period adjusted by the slider is not limited to the above period, and may be set as appropriate.

Regarding the display of the history information 26, a radio button 24 is provided between the management item on the vertical axis 21 and the history information 26 so that either the thinning display mode or the equal width display mode can be selected. By clicking or, the history chart 20 in any mode can be displayed for each management item.
In each mode, a toggle button 25 is provided so that it is possible to select whether or not to display a step-down display for each management item.
In addition, a collective radio button 24A is provided at the upper right of the history chart 20 so that all the management items can be selected at once in the thinning display mode or the equal width display mode. A collective toggle button 25A is provided at the upper right of the history chart 20 so that it can be selected collectively.
When none of the radio button 24, toggle button 25, collective radio button 24A, and collective toggle button 25A is selected, so-called standard display is performed in which neither thinning display, equal width display, or step-down display is performed. It has become.

  Further, the predicted event content 27 for the future 223 (next period) is displayed on the right side of the history information 26 for the current 222 (current period). This is based on the history transition TBL (not shown) that stores the transition rate calculated from the accumulated data of the history transitions of other employees, and may be based on the past 221 and the current 222 history information 26 for each management item. The predicted event content 27 having a high value is displayed as a predicted value. For example, in the case of an affiliation management item, based on past affiliation and current affiliation, a department that is likely to be a job rotation destination is displayed as the predicted event content 27 based on the past transfer results of other employees. Yes.

  In the search area 28, when arbitrary history information 26 is dragged and dropped into the search area 28, the search condition 281 is displayed based on the information stored in the name value 454 of the history information condition TBL 40C, and the information based on the search condition 281 is displayed. This is a screen display area in which the same or similar target history information is searched from the history information TBL 40B stored in the DB 30, and other employees having the same or similar target history information are listed.

Next, the operation of this embodiment will be described.
[Equal width display]
The equal width display process is executed in cooperation with the CPU 11 and the equal width control program 151 stored in the program storage unit 15A stored in the storage unit 15 when a process start instruction is input from the operation unit 12. The

First, the CPU 11 determines whether or not to perform a uniform width display process for the management items displayed in the history chart 20.
Here, the equal width display means the period length of each history information 26 so that the start points indicating the start times of the individual history information are arranged in time series at equal widths (equal intervals) with respect to the horizontal axis 22. Regardless of whether or not the length is adjusted.

As shown in FIG. 6, the CPU 11 acquires basic information TBL 40A, history information TBL 40B, and history information condition TBL 40C, which are information related to employee history, from the information DB 30 (step S1).
The CPU 11 derives the number of history information 26 relating to all the management items displayed in the history diagram 20 from the information stored in the history information TBL 40B (step S2).

Next, the CPU 11 measures the number of start points from the start of the history period of each history information 26 based on the derived number of history information 26 (step S3). The CPU 11 determines whether or not the number of measured start points is larger than an arbitrary set value (step S31). When the number of start points is larger than an arbitrary set value (step S31; YES), the CPU 11 determines not to perform the equal width display process (step S42). Further, when the number of start points is smaller than an arbitrary set value (step S31; NO), the CPU 11 determines to perform the equal width display process (step S41). Specifically, the length of each history information 26 is set regardless of the length of the period so that each start point is arranged in time series with equal width (equal interval) with respect to the horizontal axis 22 of the history chart 20. Decide to adjust and display. At this time, the leftmost starting point with respect to the horizontal axis 22 is arranged at a predetermined distance from the left end of the history information display area 202 of the past 221 to the right. Similarly, the rightmost starting point is also arranged at a predetermined distance from the right end of the history information display area 202 of the past 221 to the left. For this reason, the visibility of the history information 26 on the left end can be ensured, and the display space for the history information 26 on the right end can be secured. In this case, the separation distance between the start points, in other words, the length of the individual display area 261 can be calculated by the following equation.
L = (L _y − (L _LSB + L _RSB )) / (N _P −1) (Equation 1)
L = length of the individual display area 261 L _y = horizontal axis length in which the history information 26 is displayed L _LSB = separation dimension on the left end side L _RSB = separation dimension on the right end side N _P = total number of start points

  Arbitrary setting values may be appropriately changed according to the display size of the display unit 14 or the like. That is, if the display size is reduced, the length of the horizontal axis 22 in the history chart 20 is also shortened. Accordingly, by reducing the setting value (decreasing the upper limit number of starting points for performing the monospace display), the monospace display is performed. The effect of improving the visibility by is maintained.

  In addition, the history chart 20 may be displayed in combination with not only monospaced display but also step-down display. For example, when the toggle button 25 or the collective toggle button 25A is selected, a step-down display is performed. Here, the step-down display means that the history information 26 immediately after the history information 26 determined that the history content 262 cannot be displayed in the individual display area 261 is lowered, and the history content 262 is moved from the individual display area 261. It is to project out. That is, when the history content 262 cannot be displayed in the length of the individual display area 261 calculated by the above (Equation 1), the display is lowered.

An example of the equal width display will be described with reference to FIGS.
The history chart 20 shown in FIG. 7 shows only the step-down display, not the monospace display. The numbers (1) to (13) shown in the figure are the starting points (starting times) of the respective history information 26. In addition, in the lower part of the history chart 20, those starting points are arranged at corresponding positions. As is clear from FIG. 7, the respective start points are arranged at various intervals. In other words, each starting point has a narrow interval width or a wide interval. That is, in the starting points having a narrow interval width, there are places where the front-rear relationship is unclear, which is the front or the rear (in the figure, the front-rear relationships (5) to (9) are particularly unclear). Is). In addition, in the context of the starting point where the arrangement of the management items is away from the vertical axis 21, it is more difficult to grasp the context because it is separated in the vertical axis direction and close to the horizontal axis direction ( In the figure, the context of (6) and (8) is particularly unclear).

On the other hand, as shown in FIG. 8, in the case of performing the equal width display, each history information 26 is set to the period length so that the start points are arranged at equal intervals with respect to the horizontal axis 22 in time series. Regardless of the length has been adjusted.
In this way, before the equal width display process, the distance between the start points is widened by displaying the portions where the distance between the start points is narrow (particularly, the start points (5) to (9) in FIG. 7) at the same width. For this reason, it is possible to easily recognize the front-rear relationship of the history information 26 relating to each start point.
In addition, the start points (in particular, the start points (6) and (8) in FIG. 7) between the management items arranged away from the vertical axis 21 are further in the context when the distance to the horizontal axis 22 is narrow. However, since the interval between the start points with respect to the horizontal axis is widened by displaying the same width, it is easy to grasp the context.

Further, the leftmost starting point (1) is arranged at a predetermined distance from the left end of the history information display area 202 of the past 221 to the right. Similarly, the rightmost start point (13) is also arranged at a predetermined distance from the right end of the history information display area 202 of the past 221 to the left. Specifically, for example, the length of the horizontal axis 22 of the history information display area 202 of the past 221 and the current 222 of the history chart 20 is a quarter length from the left end of the history information display area 202 to the right. The starting point (1) is separated. Similarly, the start point (13) is also separated by a quarter length from the right end of the history information display area 202 to the left. The separation dimension is not limited to one-fourth, and may be one-fifth, or the separation distance of the start point (1) and the separation distance of the start point (13) may be different.
By doing so, the history information 26 having the start point (1) is separated from the vertical axis 21 by a predetermined distance, so that the visibility of the history content 262 is improved. Further, since the history information 26 having the start point (13) is separated from the right end of the current 222 by a predetermined distance, a predetermined distance is secured as the individual display area 261. That is, a space for displaying the history content 262 can be secured.

  In the present embodiment, the history diagram 20 in which all the management items are displayed in the equal width mode is shown (when the equal width display is selected by the collective radio button 24A). It is also possible to select with the button 24 and display the same width only for some of the management items (including the case where only one management item is selected).

As described above, according to the information processing apparatus 1 according to the present embodiment, the CPU 11 displays the history diagram 20 in which the history information 26 related to personnel is arranged in time series on the display unit 14, and has a plurality of different initial periods. When the history information 26 is displayed side by side in time series, at least a part of the history information 26 is displayed so that the positions of the start points indicating the start of the individual history information 26 are continuous at equal intervals in time series. The display width of the history information 26 is adjusted, and a history diagram 20 in which the history information 26 is arranged in time series with the adjusted display width is displayed on the display unit 14.
According to this, since the display width of the history information 26 is adjusted so that the start points indicating the start time of the history information 26 are arranged at equal intervals, even when the start points of the history information 26 are concentrated at a close time, the history information 26 It is possible to easily recognize the context of each starting point.
Therefore, it is possible to display the history diagram 20 in which the context of the history information 26 can be easily understood.

  In addition, the CPU 11 adjusts the display width of each history information 26 so that the interval between the start points is equal when the start points of the history information 26 displayed in chronological order do not exceed a predetermined number. When there are a large number of pieces of history information 26 exceeding the number, even if the start points are arranged at equal intervals, the interval between the start points does not increase so much, so that the context is not necessarily easily grasped. For this reason, by setting the upper limit of the number of start points from which the effect of improving the visibility by arranging the start points at equal intervals and displaying the same width is set as the set value, the effect of improving the visibility is not obtained. Equal width display can be avoided.

  In addition, the CPU 11 arranges the history information 26 of a plurality of management items along the direction of the vertical axis 21 of the history chart 20, and the history information 26 of each management item is time-series along the direction of the horizontal axis 22 of the history chart 20. Each history information 26 is displayed so that at least some of the start points have equal intervals among the history information 26 of the plurality of management items arranged in the history diagram 20. Therefore, even when the start point of the history information 26 is concentrated at a near time, the context of the start point for each history information 26 can be easily recognized. For example, it is particularly difficult to grasp the front-rear relationship between the history information 26 whose management items are arranged away from the vertical axis 21 and whose interval is narrow with respect to the horizontal axis, but by arranging the start points at equal intervals, The interval between the start points with respect to the axes is widened, and the context of the history information 26 can be easily grasped.

Further, the CPU 11 determines whether or not the display of the history content 262 of the history information 26 fits in the individual display area 261 where the history information 26 is displayed, and if it is determined that the display of the history content 262 does not fit, The history information 26 subsequent to the history information 26 is displayed in a step-down manner.
According to this, since the history information 26 immediately after the history information 26 in which the history contents 262 cannot be displayed in the individual display area 261 is displayed in a step-down manner, the CPU 11 displays the history contents 262 outside the individual display area 261. Can be displayed.

  In the present embodiment, the information processing apparatus 1 has been described as a stand-alone apparatus, but the information processing apparatus 1 may be configured by a plurality of apparatuses connected to a LAN or the Internet. For example, the information processing apparatus 1 may be configured by a terminal including a user interface such as the operation unit 12 or the display unit 14, a storage device including the storage unit 15, and a server including a display control unit. .

  In the present embodiment, the history chart 20 is displayed on the display unit 14. However, the present invention is not limited to this. For example, the history chart 20 may be printed out from a printer.

In the present embodiment, the information processing apparatus 1 has been described as an apparatus that manages the history information 26 of a person who is an employee belonging to a company. However, the information processing apparatus 1 is not limited to this configuration. It is good also as a structure which manages the personnel information of the member who belongs to arbitrary organizations and groups.
That is, “employee” is not limited to an employee belonging to a company, but includes persons such as members belonging to an organization or a group.

  In addition, the detailed configuration and detailed operation of each device constituting the information processing apparatus 1 can be changed as appropriate without departing from the spirit of the invention.

Although the embodiment of the present invention has been described, the scope of the present invention is not limited to the above-described embodiment, and is included in the invention described in the claims and the equivalent scope thereof.
