Embodiments of the present invention will be described below based on the drawings.

Referring to FIG. 1, an accounting information management device 20 disclosed as this embodiment is communicably connected to user computers 10 and 12 and accounting office computers 14 and 16 via the Internet 30. In the present invention, user computers or accounting office computers can be added as appropriate with approval from the operating entity of the accounting information management device 20. The user computers 10, 12 or the accounting office computers 14, 16 use their respective accounting software to create various types of business accounting books, and provide individual accounting information to the accounting information management device 20 via the Internet. The operating entity of the accounting information management device 20 is equipped with a corporate authentication infrastructure (user information master) for managing users or a predetermined third party, and can approve and determine entities that can access the device. Therefore, as will be detailed below, even if the user or a predetermined third party changes the accounting software, the accounting information management device 20 can be used to maintain the desired accounting software and management environment. can be used. Furthermore, even in the accounting office computers 14 and 16 that are entrusted with the user's accounting operations, operations can be performed using the desired accounting software or management environment, regardless of the type of accounting software used by the user. . Furthermore, even if the user changes the accounting firm to which the accounting work is entrusted, as long as the accounting firm is approved by the accounting information management device 20 shown in FIG. 1, there will be no particular burden on the user. Able to perform accounting work.

In other words, the accounting information management device 20 of the present invention can manage accounting information of corporations related to different accounting software, even if individual users or accounting firms use different accounting software to manage their accounting. It is possible to extract necessary information from financial and accounting information and automatically provide necessary accounting data in response to client requests.

In the present embodiment, the accounting information management device 20 is provided with account auxiliary items in addition to classification and classification of account items. Previously, account items were used only for formal divisions and classifications, and it was not possible to fully identify the divisions and classifications specific to individual corporations. In the present invention, by combining account items and account sub-items, it is possible to make detailed divisions and classifications by utilizing the auxiliary items, even for detailed information that cannot be grasped with the initial account information alone. . Therefore, in the present invention, since a common storage file is constructed by utilizing this information, accounting book data can be comprehensively stored for any user or a predetermined third party.

Furthermore, the Electronic Bookkeeping Act requires companies to create their accounting data electronically under certain requirements and store it for a specified period (7 or 10 years or more). Although data that has passed a predetermined period is no longer required to be stored under the law, it is also not required to be disposed of, so accounting information cannot be stored in a format such as the accounting information management device 20 disclosed as this embodiment. By managing it, it becomes easier to comply with the law, and it also becomes easier to utilize it as part of corporate or public intellectual assets. An example of this is the use of application documents or report documents to public institutions as shown by 18 in FIG.

Although not shown, a server that stores various information in the present invention is also connected to the Internet line 20. For convenience of illustration, there are two terminals for the user computer and the accounting office computer. Actually, the number of connections to the Internet line 20 is plural. Users in the present invention include, but are not limited to, corporations, limited liability companies, medical corporations, agricultural corporations, and other various business entities. Self-employed individuals are also within the scope of users of the present invention.

The user computers 10 and 12 and the accounting office computers 14 and 16 are information equipment terminals of corporate customers who have a contract with a business that operates the accounting information management device 20 and provides services. Specifically, it is an electronic computer capable of displaying images, such as a personal computer (PC), mainframe, smartphone, or tablet. Therefore, if there is an affiliated relationship, the user computers 14, 16 can access the accounting firm computers 14, 16 and provide necessary information. Furthermore, by accessing the accounting information management device 20, the user computers 10 and 12 can provide information to the accounting information management device 20 via an API (Application Programming Interface).

As described above, since the accounting information management device 20 of the present invention is equipped with a predetermined information management means, in such a case, the user computers 10 and 12 are not equipped with the information management means stipulated in the Electronic Bookkeeping Law. Even if the accounting software is not available, the user can still use the accounting software as is.

In the embodiment shown in FIG. 1, the accounting information management device 20 of the present invention is described as an independent system, but a program that can execute the device on the cloud is listed, and the user computers 10, 12 and Alternatively, it may be configured so that the accounting office computers 14 and 16 can access it.

Although not the main purpose of the present invention, the accounting information management device 20 may be communicatively coupled to another mainframe. For example, the accumulated accounting data in the accounting information management device 20 can be managed and operated in a mainframe operated by administrative authorities as shown in 18 in FIG. For example, it is possible to create corporate trend data by industry, period, and item. In one implementation, when a user requests a loan from a financial institution or applies for a national project, the company's accounting data, which is required when a user requests a loan from a financial institution or applies for a national project, can be provided to authorities in advance without the need for the user or accounting firm to submit it. It becomes possible to share with.

As shown in the schematic block diagram of FIG. 2, the accounting information management device 20 connected to the Internet line 30 includes, in terms of hardware, a CPU 21, a ROM 22, a RAM 23, an input/output interface (I/F) 24, and a storage device. 25, a communication I/F 26, an input device 27, and a display device 28, which are connected by a bus.

One or more CPUs 21 read processing programs stored in the ROM 22 or the storage device 25, and execute various processes using the RAM 23 as a working memory. Various processes include specifying user information and user accounting information from the user computer to the accounting information management device 20, converting into a data format, calculating data storage time, receiving a time stamp, request data, and processing the request data. This includes the process of creating an output data table.

The input/output I/F 24 is connected to the input device 27 and the display device 28 to input and output data.

The storage device 25 is composed of an HDD, SSD, etc., and stores various data. The storage device 25 constitutes the save file storage section 204 in FIG.

The communication I/F 27 transmits and receives data to and from the user computers 10 and 12 and the accounting office computers 14 and 16 illustrated in FIG. 1 via the communication network 30.

Each of the functions shown in FIGS. 1 and 2 is realized by executing instructions of a program that is software that implements each function. As a recording medium for storing this program, for example, a CD, a DVD, a semiconductor memory, a programmable theoretical circuit, etc. can be used. Further, this program may be supplied to the storage device 25 of the accounting information management system 20 via any transmission medium (communication network, broadcasting, etc.) that can transmit the program.

Next, referring to FIG. 3, communication section 201 may include a receiving section and a transmitting section, although not shown. The receiving unit receives accounting information from user computers 10, 12 or accounting office computers 14, 16 illustrated in FIG. Although the timing of reception in the receiving section is not intended to be particularly limited in the present invention, it can be set as appropriate. It can also be set appropriately when the user or accounting firm is authenticated to the accounting information management device. For example, various periods such as one day, one week, one month, and half a year may be set. If one month is designated as the predetermined period, monthly trial balance information may be included. In this case, by using the accounting information management device of the present invention, the accounting office computer transmits the data generated by the response data generating section (described later) to the user computer 10, 12 or the accounting office computer. It has means for transmitting to the office computers 14,16. Individual accounting information may be sent to a predetermined third party, such as a financial institution, that requests loan-related screening. Alternatively, the transmitter may be configured to transmit the data generated in this way to another collaborating server.

The communication unit 201 may communicate with the user or a predetermined third party using e-mail, or may communicate with the user or a predetermined third party via the cloud.

The accounting information acquisition unit 202 acquires user information created by individual accounting software from the user computers 10, 12 or the accounting firm computers 14, 16, and multiple pieces of accounting information for the user, regardless of the type of accounting software. . Here, the user information is information including, for example, company information of a corporation, fiscal year end, and the like. It may also include basic company information and customer information.

The basic company information is information regarding the corporation, such as the corporation's name, corporation number, address, representative, and fiscal year end. The business partner information is information regarding the name and address of the business partner (accounts receivable and payable) of the corporation.

The plural pieces of accounting information include financial and accounting information of the corporation in accordance with the description format (description items) in the attached table of the tax return, which is a tax return document. For the purposes of the present invention, some of each may be classified as masters. Specifically, these are account item master, sub-item master, journal entry slip, ledger, trial balance, and fixed asset ledger.

The account item master is the content of displayed amounts used in journal entries, financial statements, etc. in double-entry bookkeeping. The account master corresponds to the account item. Journal entry slips are slips and sets of slips that represent individual transactions of a corporation using double-entry bookkeeping with debits and credits. A ledger is a book (general ledger) in which all accounts are set up and transactions are posted from the journal and recorded for each account. A trial balance is a summary table that verifies the accuracy of postings from a journal to each account in a ledger, and includes a total trial balance, a trial balance, and a trial balance. A fixed asset ledger is a ledger that clarifies the status of fixed assets such as real estate and movable assets owned by a corporation and the evaluation of fixed assets (for example, the history of depreciation), which is the tax base for fixed asset tax.

In addition, in the embodiment and its description, fixed asset management software may be included in the accounting software. Some types of software can be divided into accounting software and fixed asset management software. In this case, the fixed asset ledger belonging to the fixed asset management software is separated from the accounting software and subsequent processing is performed.

Individual users use their own accounting software to manage corporate information and corporate accounting information. (See the dashed line box directly below the accounting software in the diagram). Generally known accounting software merely assists in accounting processing, and its data management format has low data compatibility with various types of separate tables and corporate information. Since the accounting book storage system 1 of this embodiment implements the specifications of API (Application Programming Interface), the corporate accounting information acquisition unit 202 of the present invention can handle multiple types of accounting software used in each corporation. Even if it exists, corporate information and multiple pieces of accounting information of the corporation (taxpayer) are acquired regardless of the type of accounting software (corresponding to each type of accounting software).

The storage file generation unit converts accounting information acquired from the user computers 10 and 12 or the accounting office computers 14 and 16 into a data format set by the accounting information management device 20 and stores the converted accounting information. Preferably, it is converted into a predetermined accounting book format. Specifically, the flow is generally as follows.

a. The accounting information acquisition unit of the accounting information management device 20 collects information about the corporation that is the user (accounting data provider) and information about the corporation's accounting processing for a certain period of time. Here, the API specifications of the accounting information management device 20 realize aggregation of individual information.
b. The accounting information management device 20 is connected to accounting software currently used by corporations. At this point, approval information, which will be described later, and the required data area are specified.
c. The accounting information management device 20 initializes setting information. Here, initial values for account items and applications for extracting accounting data are set.
d. The accounting information management device 20 checks and edits setting information.
e. The accounting information management device 20 imports data into an intermediate file. Here, accounting data is extracted from the setting information. Specifically, the total for the fiscal year is extracted from the trial balance, the unit of transaction from the ledger, the combination of transactions from the journal entry slip, and the customer information from the customer master.
f. The accounting information management device 20 checks and edits intermediate files. Here, the accounts receivable, reasons for non-collection of accounts receivable, number of shares, calculation period, and use of donations are made.
g. The accounting information management device 20 creates a save file.
h. The accounting information management device 20 checks and edits saved files.

The save file created in the above steps is stored in the save file storage unit 204. The saved file storage unit 204 may have a so-called time stamp function, or may have a clock function based on the stored date. It is also possible to attach an alert to data stored for a predetermined period in the storage unit. By providing such a function, the storage period of the accounting information data stored in the accounting information management device of the present invention becomes clear to the user, and accounting information stored for a long period of time can be managed particularly efficiently. Can be done.

Next, the response data generation unit 205 will be explained. In the accounting information management device of the present invention, accounting information stored as a save file is obtained by extracting requested accounting information from user computers 10, 12 or accounting firm computers 14, 16 in response to a request from these. It can be configured and output in a predetermined data format.

Extraction is performed from corporate information and accounting information in response to client requests. Then, description format information compatible with individual accounting software is generated. Through this extraction, the target item according to the client's request is specifically recognized in the client system. For example, if the subject of the client request is a corporation and receives a loan from a financial institution, the most recent trial balance and financial statements for the past three periods can be output in a format compatible with the accounting software on the client terminal. Send.

Next, with reference to FIG. 4, another aspect of the accounting information management device of the present invention will be described. In FIG. 4, the accounting information management device is communicably connected to a user computer 10 and an accounting firm computer that handles some or all of the user's accounting operations. For example, the user computer 10 can provide accounting information not only to the accounting firm computer 14 but also to the accounting information management device 20 as a backup, so that the user of the user computer 10 can manage the 16 accounting operations shown in FIG. By providing accounting information from the accounting information management device 20 to the accounting office computer 16 when switching to a different location, the accounting operations for the user can be taken over without any problems.

Next, specific outputs of the accounting information management device according to the present invention will be explained with reference to FIG. The accounting system in FIG. 5 corresponds to the user computers 10 and 12 or the accounting office computers 14 and 16 in FIG. In the accounting system shown in Figure 5, the accounting ledger data stored in the accounting database (DB) can be linked as CSV, etc., and the output of the accounting processing operations normally performed by the accounting system can be linked. The same can be done.

The present invention has made it possible to construct an accounting information database with a certain degree of portability, regardless of the accounting software used by users and accounting firms. Building such a database is advantageous for storing accounting book data under certain conditions for a long period of time, and it is also possible to effectively utilize the accumulated data by analyzing it.
