Although the directory structure formed by the directory designs shown in FIGS. 6 to 8 has four hierarchies, it is not limited to this, and may have multiple hierarchies other than four.

<Control unit 13>
The control unit 13 has a CPU (Central Processing Unit), a ROM, a RAM, a CMOS (Complementary Metal-Oxide-Semiconductor) memory, etc., which are configured to communicate with each other via a bus, which is known to those skilled in the art. belongs to.
The CPU is a processor that controls the server 10 as a whole. The CPU reads the system program stored in the ROM and application programs such as data transfer processing, abstraction processing, and analysis processing via the bus, and performs the system program and data transfer processing, abstraction processing, and It controls the entire server 10 according to application programs such as analysis processing. As a result, as shown in FIG. 4, the control unit 13 is configured to include an ID manager 130, a design registration unit 131, a file registration unit 132, a design reference unit 133, a design determination unit 134, a communication data transfer unit 135, and a store data transfer unit 136. , data analysis unit 137 , communication service providing unit 138 , and store service providing unit 139 . Various data such as temporary calculation data and display data are stored in the RAM. The CMOS memory is backed up by a battery (not shown), and configured as a non-volatile memory that retains the memory state even when the power of the server 10 is turned off.

<ID manager 130>
The ID manager 130 identifies the user based on user authentication information received from the terminal device 20 via the communication unit 11 and user information (eg, ID, password, etc.) registered in advance in the storage unit 15. access is permitted. If the user's access is permitted and the user requests a communication service, a store service, or a storage service, the ID manager 130 provides the user with the communication service, the store service, or the storage service via the terminal device 20. enable the use of the Service; Here, the storage service means a service that provides the functions of the design registration unit 131, file registration unit 132, design reference unit 133, design determination unit 134, and data analysis unit 137, which will be described later.

<Design registration unit 131>
The design registration unit 131 automatically takes in the directory designs shown in FIGS. 6, 8, and 9 which are designed in advance according to any business flow of any company by an external device (not shown), for example. The design registration unit 131 forms an arbitrary directory structure having a plurality of hierarchies for each of the directory 154, for example, the sales business 1541, the manufacturing site 1542, and the system design 1543, based on the imported directory design.
In addition, the design registration unit 131 registers directory and folder information in the storage unit 15 for centrally managing folders or files in a plurality of hierarchies defined by the directory structure.

<File registration unit 132>
The file registration unit 132 saves an arbitrary file created in advance in a folder (formed in the storage unit 15 ) for storing the file managed by the directory 154 .

<Design reference unit 133>
The design reference unit 133 searches the directory structure registered in advance in the directory 154 of the storage unit 15 by the design registration unit 131 . When the file registration unit 132 saves a file in the storage unit 15, the design reference unit 133 guides the directories and folders that are candidates for the file save destination for each hierarchy.
Specifically, the design reference unit 133 converts files such as document files, drawing files, and photo data files created in advance for the sales work 1541 to the data shown in FIG. When newly registering in the storage unit 15 based on the directory structure, the directory 154 of the storage unit 15 is searched for directory and folder information corresponding to the file to be newly registered. Specifically, the design reference unit 133 refers to the searched directory and folder information, so that the file to be newly registered is stored in the folder 02-2 of the folder 02 based on the directory structure illustrated in FIG. 5B. invite. By doing so, the file registration unit 132 can save the newly registered file in the folder 02-2 of the folder 02 with the file name of "folder 02 folder 02-2 document file".
As described above, the server 10 registers created data files, document files, image files, drawing files, etc. in preset folders, so that secure folder management is possible and file retrieval is facilitated. In addition, when multiple people use it, it becomes easy to manage folders when multiple people use it. Furthermore, since files cannot be registered in different folders, for example, when folders are created for each customer, erroneous registration of a file for another customer can be prevented.

For example, when saving the created document file in the folder 02-2 of the folder 02 shown in FIG. 5B, the design reference unit 133 refers to the directory design shown in FIG. The folder structure may be displayed on the display device (not shown) of the terminal device 20 that created the document file. For example, when the user selects the folder 02 of layer 0 in a drop-down format via the terminal device 20, the folder structure of layer 1 is displayed on a display device (not shown) so that the folder structure can be selected, and the folder structure is displayed by the user. When 02-2 is selected, since there is no folder in layer 2, an item for inputting a file name is displayed, and an arbitrary file name can be set. In the terminal device 20, when the user inputs the file name of "document file", the file registration unit 132 can newly register in the folder with the file name "folder 02 folder 02-2 document file". can.

<Design determination unit 134>
When the file saved in the storage unit 15 by the file registration unit 132 is re-saved in the storage unit 15, the design determination unit 134 stores the file in the same directory 154 and/or folder as the directory 154 and/or folder in which the file is saved. Determines whether or not it has been saved again.
Specifically, for example, when a file such as a text file is edited by the terminal device 20 and the edited file is to be re-registered (re-saved), when file re-registration is selected, the design determination unit 134 selects the file re-registration. The folder name attached to the file name is compared with the directory designs (design sheets) shown in FIG. 5A and FIGS. 6 to 8, for example. When attempting to register in a folder that is not in the directory design (design sheet), the design determination unit 134 outputs an alarm such as a message "There is no registered folder. Please newly register" to the terminal device 20 that edited the file. and displayed on a display device (not shown) of the terminal device 20 .
By doing so, since the server 10 cannot register files in different folders, for example, when folders are created for each customer, it is possible to prevent mistakenly registering a file for another customer. can.

The design determination unit 134 may use metadata of files automatically recorded by an OS such as Windows (registered trademark) shown in FIG. FIG. 9 is a diagram showing an example of metadata.
Specifically, for example, for each directory, it is decided in advance what kind of data should be automatically written to the metadata related to the file that is automatically generated when the file is created. By entering the location and the contents to be written in the directory design (design sheet), when a predetermined file is registered in the system, an OS such as Windows (registered trademark) names the file based on the design sheet. Automatically generate and write metadata at the same time. By doing so, for example, as shown in FIG. 6, by setting "sales information" in the metadata title and "product number 4444" in the category in advance, when re-registering the file, You can display this metadata or use this metadata as confirmation text. In addition, when deciding the operation of what kind of data to automatically write to the metadata related to the file that is automatically generated when creating the file, and when re-registering the file, the file It is also possible to display candidates of metadata related to and allow the user to select.
Specifically, for example, as shown in FIGS. 6 to 8, the operation of what kind of data is to be written in the metadata is determined in advance for each of the directory 154, for example, a sales operation 1541, a manufacturing site 1542, and a system design 1543. , fill in the directory design (design sheet) in advance with the location and the contents to be written. By doing so, when registering a file, the design determination unit 134 can automatically generate a file name and write predetermined data in a predetermined location of the metadata related to the file. For example, as shown in FIG. 9, by setting "sales information" in the title and "product number 4444" in the classification in advance, the design determination unit 134 can display the relevant data at the time of re-registration, or display the data for confirmation. Can be made available as text.

<Communication Data Transfer Unit 135>
Based on the communication data storage destination table 153, the communication data transfer unit 135 transfers, at a predetermined timing, communication data stored in communication services such as SNS and email to a folder in a directory 154 that stores communication data.
Specifically, the communication data transfer unit 135 transfers the communication data registered in the room data 151 in the communication service to the directory 154 based on the communication data recorded in the room, for example, the sales operation 1541, the manufacturing site, etc. 1542 and 1543 are transferred and stored in a folder such as a meeting for system design. The communication data transfer unit 135 performs once a day or a specified The data may be transferred at a predetermined timing such as the time when the data is received.
In addition, since the communication data transfer unit 135 includes personal information such as room member names registered in the room data 151, the content of the message transmitted in the room and the "last name" and "first name" registered in the SNS etc. ”, etc., and the entire text, and character strings that can identify personal information may be anonymized by replacing them with “****” before transferring the communication data. .

<Store data transfer unit 136>
As described above, the store data transfer unit 136 transfers store data including ID information (customer information) and/or product information of a user who is a store user in any store service including an EC site to the design registration unit 131. The data is transferred to a folder formed in accordance with the business flow of the sales business 1541, for example, in the directory structure formed in advance in the storage unit 15. FIG.
Specifically, the store data transfer unit 136 transfers store data including store user ID information (customer information) and/or product information, for example, to the name, gender, age, address, and email of the user of the terminal device 20. Abstract processing is performed so that personal information such as addresses, telephone numbers, and mobile phone numbers cannot be specified. For example, the store data transfer unit 136 abstracts ages into teens, twenties, etc., abstracts addresses into prefectures, etc., and stores data once a day or periodically at a specified time. The data is transferred to the store information folder of sales business 1541 . In this way, part of the data is abstracted and used so as not to identify the individual, but other data that identifies the individual is sold using the function of the store data transfer unit 136 (transfer function 2). It is protected so that it is not sent to business store information.
By doing so, the data analysis unit 137, which will be described later, uses the abstracted store data to perform processing such as tallying the results of searching for arbitrary products by product name or product number by age. It is possible to conduct marketing that general e-commerce carries out, such as grasping the purchasing demographic.

<Data Analysis Unit 137>
The data analysis unit 137 selects, for example, the communication data transfer unit 135 from among the directory structures formed in the storage unit 15 in advance by the design registration unit 131 and formed in the storage unit 15 along any business flow of any company. Based on the communication data transferred to the folder formed along the business flow of the manufacturing site by the At least one of an issue in the sales work based on the communication data, or an issue in the system design work based on the communication data transferred to the folder formed along the work flow of the system design work by the communication data transfer unit 135. Any problem can be analyzed and queried to the user.
Alternatively, the data analysis unit 137 selects a directory structure formed in the storage unit 15 in advance by the design registration unit 131 in the storage unit 15 according to an arbitrary business flow of an arbitrary company. Based on the folder formed according to the manufacturing progress status at the manufacturing site, or the past case at the manufacturing site, based on the folder formed according to the business flow of the sales business, the progress of the sales business in the sales business , or past cases in sales work, or progress in system design work based on folders formed along the work flow of system design work, or past cases in system design work, at least either progress or past Cases can be analyzed and queried.

Specifically, the data analysis unit 137 may, for example, input the reports in the sales report folder of the sales business 1541 into the trained model and extract features for each report.
