DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
[background]
First, in order to help understanding of the present invention, the background will be described with specific examples.
For example, when a confidential part is included in an electronic document, permission / prohibition authority (view), print (Print), copy (Copy), edit (Edit), etc. for the confidential part ( Hereinafter, the authority level) is set as the access right. In some cases, it is desired to set an access right for each viewer and each period for each confidential portion of the electronic document. Thus, when a large number of access rights comprising various setting conditions are set, a means for easily confirming the access right setting range and the access right setting conditions is required.
In response to such a request, for example, when a plurality of access rights with different setting conditions are set for one confidential part included in the electronic document, the access rights are set in accordance with the set access right setting conditions. The setting conditions for the set access rights may be identified by displaying the setting ranges for the respective access rights in different display modes.
However, even with the above-described means, if too many access rights are set, it is difficult to grasp the setting result, and there is a possibility that an access right setting error or a setting omission occurs.
[0015]
Therefore, the condition setting device 2 of the present embodiment displays the access right setting range corresponding to the setting condition narrowed down by the narrowing condition, and facilitates the confirmation of the set access right. In addition, the condition setting device 2 displays the difference between the setting ranges narrowed down by a plurality of narrowing conditions, thereby making it possible to visually recognize the difference in appearance. Furthermore, the condition setting device 2 continuously displays the change over time of the setting range, and enables confirmation along the time axis of the setting range of the access right at each time point.
[0016]
[Embodiment]
Next, an embodiment of the present invention will be described.
FIG. 1 is a diagram illustrating a hardware configuration of a condition setting device 2 to which a setting confirmation display method according to the present invention is applied.
As shown in FIG. 1, the condition setting device 2 includes a control device 20 including a CPU 202 and a memory 204, a communication device 22, a printer 23, a recording device 24 such as an HDD / CD device, and an LCD display device or a CRT display device. And a user interface device (UI device) 26 including a mouse / keyboard / touch panel.
[0017]
[Condition setting program 5]
FIG. 2 is a diagram showing a configuration of the condition setting program 5 which is executed by the control device 20 (FIG. 1) and realizes the setting confirmation display method according to the present invention.
As shown in FIG. 2, the condition setting program 5 includes a UI unit 510 (display unit), a setting management unit 520, a setting database (setting DB) 530, an extraction unit 540, a UI control unit 550, and a printing unit 560. The The UI control unit 540 includes a condition display control unit 542 and a list display unit 554.
The condition setting program 5 is supplied to the control device 20 via, for example, the recording medium 240 (FIG. 1) or the network, loaded into the memory 204, and executed.
[0018]
In the condition setting program 5, the UI unit 510 controls the mouse or keyboard of the UI device 26 (FIG. 1) to narrow down setting information for setting the access right, or narrowing down for confirming the set access right. An input of conditions and the like is received and output to the setting management unit 520 and the UI control unit 540. The UI unit 510 controls the display device of the UI device 26 to display a setting screen, a setting confirmation screen, and the like.
[0019]
The setting management unit 520 sets an access right according to the setting information input from the UI unit 510, and updates the setting table stored in the setting DB 530. The setting management unit 520 of this example specifies the authority level of the access right (viewing authority, printing authority, duplication authority, and editing authority), the grant target to which the access right is granted, and the validity period of the access right. Set access rights. At that time, the setting management unit 520 checks whether the newly input setting information (authority level, grant target, and validity period) is consistent with the access right that has already been set. The data may be output via the UI unit 510.
[0020]
When the narrowing condition is input via the UI unit 510 and the UI control unit 550, the extracting unit 540 extracts the setting range of the access right corresponding to the setting condition narrowed down by the input narrowing condition. The extraction unit 540 of this example extracts access right setting information corresponding to the input narrowing condition from the setting DB 530 and outputs it to the UI control unit 550. The narrowing condition is a condition for narrowing the setting condition for the setting item of the access right. For example, the condition for specifying the validity period of the access right, the right level of the access right, and the grant target to which the access right is given. is there. The validity period of the access right may be specified at either the time point or the period. The authority level indicates permitted / prohibited contents, and is specified by conditions such as “browsing is permitted”, “printing is permitted”, or “duplication is not permitted”, for example.
Note that, when no narrowing condition is input, the extraction unit 540 extracts all access right setting information set in the electronic document and displays the set range of all access rights set.
[0021]
The UI control unit 550 includes a condition display control unit 552 and a list display unit 554.
The condition display control unit 552 controls the UI unit 510 to display the setting range in which the access right is set. The condition display control unit 552 of this example displays the setting range of the access right using a setting range display (for example, a frame or shaded area) indicating an area on the screen, but is not limited thereto. The character string indicating the setting range (such as the coordinate value itself) may be used for display.
For example, the condition display control unit 552 detects the update of the access right setting information stored in the setting DB 530 and displays a setting range display indicating the setting range of the updated access right. At this time, the condition display control unit 552 changes the color or pattern of the setting range display so that the contents of the set access rights (authority level, effective period, grant target, etc.) can be distinguished, Display it over the confidential part to be set (target to be set).
When the access right setting information corresponding to a plurality of narrowing conditions is input from the extraction unit 540, the condition display control unit 552 performs a logical operation (AND operation, OR operation, NOT) on the access right corresponding to these narrowing conditions. Calculation, XOR calculation, etc.) and an access right setting range display corresponding to the calculation result is displayed. For example, when “difference” between the period 1 and the period 2 is designated as the narrowing-down condition, the condition display control unit 552 is the access right setting range set in the period 1 and is set in the period 2 A setting range not extracted is extracted, and a setting range display corresponding to the extracted setting range is displayed.
[0022]
The list display unit 554 displays the set access rights as a list. The list display unit 554 of this example displays the set access right identification information (setting condition number), the access right authority level (viewable / impossible, editable / impossible, etc.), and the access right valid time. Display as a list. The list of this example is arranged in the set order.
When the list display unit 554 receives an operation for selecting one of the access rights displayed as a list via the UI unit 510, the list display unit 554 instructs the condition display control unit 552 to display the setting range display of the selected access right. Instruct. The condition display control unit 552 displays the setting range display of the access right in a display mode in which the selection can be distinguished according to an instruction from the list display unit 554.
[0023]
When a printing instruction is input via the UI unit 510, the printing unit 560 controls the printer 23 (FIG. 1) to print a setting confirmation screen or the like.
[0024]
FIG. 3 is a diagram illustrating a setting table 532 stored in the setting DB 530. As illustrated in FIG. 3, the setting DB 530 includes a setting condition number (setting condition No), a confidential part in which an access right is set, a grant target (authority range) to which the access right is given, an authority level (authority content), and The effective period (period) of authority is stored in association with each other as the setting table 532.
“Setting condition No.” is a serial number assigned in the input order of access right setting information, and is used as identification information of the access right setting information.
“Secret part” indicates a range in which the access right is set, and in this example, indicates a secret part in the electronic document.
“Authority range” indicates the range of viewers to whom access rights are given. For example, “A12G0000” indicates that all members of the “A12 group” are to be granted authority, and “A13G0001” indicates that the member corresponding to the member number “0001” belonging to the “A13 group” is authorized. Indicates that it is a grant target.
“Authority content” indicates an authority level. For example, “V” and “E” indicate that browsing is possible and editing is possible, and “ALL” is that browsing, printing, copying, and editing are all possible. Indicates.
“Period” indicates the validity period of the set access right. When the period is not specified (in the case of “null”), it indicates that the access right is valid indefinitely. The validity period is indefinite with no start and end dates, only with the start date of the period, only with the end date of the period, and with the start and end dates of the period. Including things.
[0025]
[Permission setting operation]
Hereinafter, the authority setting operation of the condition setting device 2 will be described.

As shown in FIG. 4, in step 110 (S110), the setter who sets the access right to the electronic document uses the UI device 26 (FIG. 1) to use the confidential part, the scope of the authority to be granted, the authority content ( When setting information specifying an authority level and a valid period is input, the UI unit 510 outputs the input setting information to the setting management unit 520.
The setting management unit 520 sets an access right for the confidential part of the electronic document according to the input setting information, and updates the setting table 532 of the setting DB 530.
In step 120 (S120), when the condition display control unit 542 detects an update in the setting DB 530, the condition display control unit 542 specifies a newly set access right and searches for a set range display corresponding to the newly set access right. . In other words, the condition display control unit 542 searches for an access right having the same authority attribute (authority level, grant target, and validity period) as the newly set access right. This is to display the setting range display in the same display mode (color and pattern) when the same access right is set in the other confidential parts.
[0026]
In step 130 (S130), when the condition display control unit 542 finds a corresponding setting range display, the condition setting program 5 shifts to the process of S150, and otherwise shifts to the process of S140. .
In step 140 (S140), the condition display control unit 542 displays and displays a screen (display attribute setting screen) for selecting a display mode (color and pattern) for the setting range display of the access right to be newly set. The mode selection is accepted, and the selected display mode is registered in association with the authority attribute.
In step 150 (S150), the condition display control unit 542 displays a setting range display corresponding to the attribute of the set access right in the confidential area where the access right is set.
As described above, when the access right is newly set, the condition display control unit 542 adds a new setting range display to display the setting range display corresponding to the plurality of set access rights.
[0027]
FIG. 5 is a flowchart for explaining the setting information input process (S110) shown in FIG. 4 in more detail.
As shown in FIG. 5, in step 112 (S112), the UI unit 510 receives an operation for designating the range of the confidential part via the UI device 26 (FIG. 1), and further accesses the designated confidential part. Accepts an input of a grant target (right grant target) that grants the right.
In step 114 (S114), the UI unit 510 receives an input of the validity period of the access right via the UI device 26.
In step 116 (S 116), the UI unit 510 receives an authority level setting operation for the access right via the UI device 26.
In step 118 (S118), the UI unit 510 outputs, to the setting management unit 520, information for identifying the confidential part, the grant target, the validity period, and the authority level as access right setting information.
The setting management unit 520 sets the access right according to the input access right setting information, and updates the setting table 532 of the setting DB 530.
[0028]
[Setting screen]
FIG. 6 is a diagram illustrating a setting screen displayed by the UI unit 510. FIG. 6A illustrates a setting screen 610 that accepts designation of a confidential part, FIG. 6B illustrates a setting screen 620 that accepts the setting of the validity period of the access right, and FIG. The setting screen 630 which receives the setting of an authority level is illustrated.
As illustrated in FIG. 6A, the UI unit 510 displays a setting screen 610 in S112 of FIG. On the setting screen 610, a setting confirmation screen 612 and a screen transition button 614 are displayed.
The setting confirmation screen 612 displays an electronic document that is a target of access right setting, and accepts an operation for specifying the range of the confidential portion. The designated confidential part is displayed by the designated range display 612a.
The screen transition button 614 transitions to a button 614a for transitioning to a period setting screen 620, a button 614b for transitioning to a target setting screen for setting an authority grant target, and a level setting screen 630 for setting an authority level. Button 614c for the purpose.
The person who sets the access right designates the range of the confidential part (content to which the access right is set) on the setting confirmation screen 612, clicks the screen transition button 614, etc., and the authority attribute (authority level) for the designated confidential part , Transition to setting process of grant target and valid period).
[0029]
As illustrated in FIG. 6B, the UI unit 510 displays a period setting screen 620 in S114 of FIG. The period setting screen 620 displays a setting confirmation screen 612, a numeric key button 622, a slider bar 624, and a period display unit 626 that are substantially the same as those in FIG.
The numeric keypad button 622 detects an operation of selecting a displayed number or character and accepts an input of an access right validity period. The slider bar 624 detects a drag operation of the bar 624a and receives an input of an access right validity period.
The period display unit 626 displays the input effective period and confirms the input result.
[0030]
As illustrated in FIG. 6C, the UI unit 510 displays a level setting screen 612 in S116 of FIG. On the level setting screen 612, a setting confirmation screen 612 and a level setting button 632 that are substantially the same as those in FIG. The level setting button 632 receives operations for selecting whether viewing (View), printing (Print), copying (Copy), and editing are permitted.
[0031]
FIG. 7 is a diagram illustrating a display attribute setting screen 640 displayed by the condition display control unit 542. The condition display control unit 542 displays the display attribute setting screen 640 in S140 of FIG. On the display attribute setting screen 640, a color designation unit 642 and a pattern designation unit 644 are displayed.
The color designation unit 642 includes an automatic color assignment button 642a, a color selection button 642b, and the like. When a click operation or the like is detected by the automatic color assignment button 642a, the condition display control unit 542 automatically assigns colors so that authority attributes can be uniquely identified. When a click operation or the like is detected by the color selection button 642b or the like, the condition display control unit 542 assigns a color corresponding to the detection position to the setting range display.
The pattern specifying unit 644 includes a pattern selection button 644a corresponding to a plurality of patterns. When the pattern selection button 644a detects a selection operation, the condition display control unit 542 assigns a pattern corresponding to the selection operation to the setting range display.
The access right setter uses the display attribute setting screen 640 to set the color and pattern of the setting range display so that the access right attributes can be distinguished. The set display attributes (color and pattern) are displayed on the display attribute setting screen 640 for confirmation. In addition, although this example demonstrated the form which used the kind of color and the pattern as a display attribute as a specific example, it is not limited to this, For example, a color density or saturation, an emphasis degree, etc. The display attribute may be changed according to the access right attribute.
[0032]
FIG. 8 is a diagram illustrating an electronic document displayed on the setting confirmation screen 612. FIG. 9 is a diagram illustrating a preview screen 700 when the access right is set for the electronic document illustrated in FIG.
As illustrated in FIG. 8, the electronic document of this example is an organization chart of “A development department”. That is, the UI unit 510 of this example displays an electronic document indicating an organization chart of “A development unit” as an access right setting target.
As illustrated in FIG. 9, the UI unit 510 displays the electronic document illustrated in FIG. 8 on the preview screen 700, and further sets the access right setting range according to the control of the condition display control unit 542. Range displays 710a, 710b, 710c, and 710d are displayed on the preview screen 700 in an overlapping manner. The setting range display 710 displayed on the preview screen 700 is displayed in a color and pattern according to the attribute of the access right, and is arranged in the vicinity of the confidential part (setting target) to which the access right is set.
The preview screen 700 will be described as a specific example in which the preview screen 700 is displayed in the area of the setting confirmation screen 612 when a preview instruction is received. However, the preview screen 700 is not limited to this and is displayed in another area. May be. The preview screen 700 may be printed on a sheet by the printer 23 (FIG. 1).
As described above, when a plurality of access rights are set for a plurality of confidential parts of the electronic document, the condition setting program 5 represents the setting ranges of these access rights in different display modes according to the setting contents. Visualize the difference in access right settings. However, if a plurality of access rights are set in one confidential part, it becomes difficult to confirm and review the setting contents.
Therefore, as will be described below, the condition setting program 5 narrows down access rights based on the narrowing conditions, and displays the narrowed access right setting range.
[0033]
[Filtering display]
Next, the operation of narrowing down and displaying the access right according to the narrowing conditions will be described.
FIG. 10 is a flowchart for explaining the operation of the narrowed display (S20).
As illustrated in FIG. 10, in step 210 (S210), when the UI unit 510 receives an input of at least one narrowing condition, the UI unit 510 outputs the input to the extraction unit 540 via the UI control unit 550.
In step 220 (S220), the extraction unit 540 acquires access right setting information corresponding to the input narrowing condition from the setting DB 530, and outputs it to the condition display control unit 552.
In step 230 (S230), the condition display control unit 552 determines whether the display of the difference is instructed. The condition setting program 5 proceeds to the process of S240 when the difference display is instructed, and otherwise proceeds to the process of S250. That is, when the difference display is not instructed, the condition setting program 5 proceeds to the processing of S250 and displays a setting range display indicating the setting range of the access right narrowed down by the narrowing condition.
[0034]
In step 240 (S240), the condition display control unit 552 extracts the access right difference corresponding to the narrow-down condition based on the access right information input from the extraction unit 540. For example, the condition display control unit 552 removes a portion overlapping the access right setting range corresponding to the second narrowing condition from the setting range of the access right corresponding to the first narrowing condition, and sets the first narrowing condition. A range in which a corresponding access right is set and an access right corresponding to the second narrowing condition is not set is extracted.
As described above, in this example, the case where the condition display control unit 552 extracts the difference of the setting range will be described as a specific example, but an overlapping portion (product set) or the like may be extracted.
[0035]
In step 250 (S250), the condition display control unit 552 controls the UI unit 510 to display a set range display indicating the extracted range (difference) on the UI device 26 (FIG. 1). When the difference display is not instructed, the condition display control unit 552 displays a setting range display corresponding to the access right setting information input from the extraction unit 540 on the UI device 26.
[0036]
FIG. 11 is a diagram exemplifying a setting range display of the access right narrowed down by the narrowing condition.
As illustrated in FIG. 11, when “2003 or later” and “viewable” are input as narrowing conditions, the condition display control unit 552 controls the UI unit 510 to access that matches the narrowing conditions. Setting range displays 710a and 710b indicating the right setting range are displayed. The setting range display 710a and the setting range display 710 in this example are displayed with different display attributes because the objects to which the access right is given are different.
[0037]
FIG. 12 is a diagram illustrating an access right setting range display when a period is designated as a narrowing condition. The narrowing-down condition in this example is a period of “2000 to 2005”, and the condition display control unit 552 accepts designation of each time point in this period with a slider bar or the like, and the access right set at each time point. The setting range display is changed continuously. FIG. 12A illustrates the setting range display when the time point “January 2002” is specified, and FIG. 12B shows the setting when the time point “January 2004” is specified. A range display is illustrated.
As illustrated in FIG. 12A, when the time point “January 2002” is designated, the condition display control unit 552 sets an access right in which the time point “January 2002” is within the effective period. The range display (710a, 710b, 710c and 710d) is displayed.
Furthermore, when the time point “January 2004” is specified by dragging the slider bar, the condition display control unit 552 displays the time point “January 2004” as illustrated in FIG. An access right setting range display (710a and 710b) within the effective period is displayed.
As described above, when the setting range display 710 corresponding to a continuous change in time is continuously displayed, the authority level or the grant target may be narrowed down in advance. For example, when the time is changed by narrowing down to the authority level “viewable”, the setting range display 710 continuously displays the variation of the range in which browsing is permitted.
[0038]
FIG. 13 is a diagram exemplifying a setting range display showing a difference between access rights narrowed down by two narrowing conditions.
As illustrated in FIG. 13, “set for A1G group members for all periods” is input as the first screening condition, and “set for A2G group members for all periods” is input as the second screening condition. When instructed to display the difference obtained by subtracting the second narrowing condition from the first narrowing condition, the condition display control unit 552 displays the setting range display 810 corresponding to this difference. The setting range display 810 of this example shows a portion that is set for the A1G group member and is not set for the A2G group member. In other words, the setting range display 810 is changed from the setting range display 710a illustrated in FIG. 9 (the range of access rights set only for A1G group members) to the setting range display 710d (the access right set for all employees). Excluding the overlapping area.
In this way, the condition setting program 5 displays the difference between the access right setting ranges that are narrowed down by two or more narrowing conditions, so that the access right does not overlap (that is, the access right that is specific to the narrowing condition). It is easy to check the setting information regarding the setting location.
[0039]
Next, a list display of access rights will be described.
FIG. 14 is a diagram illustrating an access right list display screen 900.
As illustrated in FIG. 14, when the list display of the access right is instructed, the list display unit 554 displays the list display screen 900 including the list display screen 910 and the preview screen 700 on the UI device 26 (FIG. 1). Display.
The list display screen 910 displays the set access right setting information in a list in order of setting. The access right setting information in this example is “setting condition No” that is the serial number of the set access right, “right contents” that indicates the right level of the access right, and “period” that indicates the validity period of the access right. . When one access right setting information is selected from the access right setting information displayed on the list display screen 910, the list display unit 554 changes the display mode of the selected access right setting information 912, and This indicates that the access right setting information 912 has been selected.
The list display unit 554 further displays a setting range display 710 b corresponding to the selected access right setting information 912 on the preview screen 700. For example, the list display unit 554 displays the selected access right setting information 912 and the setting range display 710b indicating the setting range of the access right corresponding to the selected access right setting information 912 in substantially the same display mode.
As described above, the list display unit 554 associates the set list of the access right setting information with the setting range display on the preview screen 700, thereby enabling setting confirmation without omission.
[0040]
As described above, the condition setting device 2 according to the present embodiment narrows down the access right set for each part of the electronic document according to the narrowing condition, and the setting range display 710 indicating the narrowed access right setting range. Is displayed to facilitate confirmation of the setting range of the desired access right.
