<< Operation of server 4 >>
The comment input process performed by the server 4 configured as described above will be described with reference to FIGS. 5 to 8. FIG. 5 is a flowchart showing an example of the comment input process. FIG. 6 is a diagram showing an example of a comment input screen 5 displayed on the screen in the comment input process. FIG. 7 is a diagram showing a screen after comment information of another date is selected in the comment input screen 5 shown in FIG. 6 and pasted in the comment information input field 52. FIG. 8 is a diagram showing an example of a screen after the comment information of another date pasted in the comment information input field 52 is edited by the user in the comment input screen shown in FIG. 7.

The comment input process is preferably performed at least after the attribute information of the date on which the user intends to input the comment information is acquired, and is preferably performed at a timing such as after the business end of the date.

As shown in FIG. 5, when the communication unit 46 receives an access request to the comment input screen 5 from the user terminal, the CPU 41 of the server 4 specifies a date based on the operation information from the user terminal ( Step S101). The date specified here is a date for which the corresponding attribute information has already been acquired and the input of the corresponding comment information has not been completed, and is selected by the user as the target for inputting the comment information. The date.

Next, the CPU 41 refers to the attribute information data table 451 stored in the storage unit 45, and each of the past dates before the date designated in the process of step S101 (hereinafter, also referred to as a designated date). The similarity calculation process for calculating the similarity with the attribute information on the designated date is performed (step S102). The details of the similarity calculation process will be described later.

Next, the CPU 41 extracts the date based on the similarity calculated in step S102 (step S103). For example, the CPU 41 extracts a predetermined number of dates in order from those having a high degree of similarity from the dates in the past before the designated date shown in FIG. In this case, the number of dates to be extracted may be any, and the setting may be arbitrarily changed by the user.

Next, the CPU 41 acquires the comment information corresponding to the extracted date from the storage unit 45 (step S104).

Next, the CPU 41 displays the comment input screen 5 shown in FIG. 6 on the terminal display unit of the user terminal, which includes the comment information input field 52 and the comment information display field 53 in which the acquired comment information is listed in descending order of similarity. It is displayed on 34 (step S105).
The comment input screen 5 is composed of a business performance display field 51, a comment information input field 52, a comment information display field 53, and the like. In the management performance display column 51, sales, the number of customers, the unit price per customer, personnel expenses, purchases, expenses, FL ratio, and the like are displayed, and management data that can be used as a reference for inputting comment information is displayed. In the comment information input field 52, comment information corresponding to the designated date is input based on the operation by the user. Further, various check boxes 521 to 523 are provided in the comment information input field 52, and can be arbitrarily checked by the user's selection. The check box 521 is a field in which a check mark is input by the user when the user determines that the comment information to be input is important. The check box 522 is a field in which a check mark is input by the user when the user determines that the comment information to be input is positive content. The check box 523 is a field in which a check mark is input by the user when there is a complaint from a customer, a business partner, or the like on a designated date. The information obtained based on the input contents in the check boxes 521 to 523 may be stored in the storage unit 45 as one of the attribute information items.

In the comment information display column 53, the comment information acquired in the process of step S104 is listed in descending order of similarity. If the similarity is the same value, the comment information corresponding to the date close to the specified date may be arranged higher, or any of them may be arranged higher based on the attribute information of each date. You may decide whether or not. For example, the comment information corresponding to a date whose "maximum temperature" or "minimum temperature" in the attribute information data table 451 is closer to the value of the specified date may be arranged higher, or the attribute information data table 451 may be arranged. Of these, the comment information corresponding to the date on which a specific item, for example, the item of "public event" or "store event" matches, may be arranged higher.
Further, the switching buttons 531 and 532 are displayed in the comment information display field 53, and when the switching button 531 is selected by the user, the comment information corresponding to the latest past date of the designated date is displayed in a list. In this case, the comment information corresponding to the date closer to the specified date is arranged higher. Further, when the switching button 532 is selected by the user, the comment information is again listed in descending order of similarity as described above.

Here, the content of the comment information corresponding to a date having similar attribute information, that is, having a high degree of similarity is likely to be similar to the content of the comment information that the user intends to input corresponding to the specified date. Therefore, when inputting the comment information corresponding to the designated date, the user can easily input the comment information by referring to any of the comment information listed in the comment information display field 53. In the present embodiment, the paste button 532 is displayed in the comment information display field 53, and after any comment information is selected by the user from the comment information displayed in the list, the paste button 532 is further displayed. When selected, the CPU 41 inputs the selected comment information into the comment information input field 52. For example, as shown in FIG. 7, after the comment information of "the coupon effect is produced but the order is biased" is selected by the user from the comment information display field 53, the paste button 532 is selected. Then, the CPU 41 inputs the comment information into the comment information input field 52. Further, the user edits the comment information of other dates input in the comment information input field 52 as necessary, and as shown in FIG. 8, for example, "the coupon is effective. It can be rewritten as comment information such as "Suppress and profit margin is excellent." Then, as shown in FIGS. 7 and 8, after the comment information is input in the comment information input field 52, the user selects the registration button 54, so that the CPU 41 registers the comment information corresponding to the designated date. be able to.
Further, when the user checks the comment information listed in the comment information display field 53 and determines that there is no comment information similar to the comment information that the user intends to input corresponding to the specified date, the user makes a comment. It is not necessary to select any of the comment information listed in the information display field 53. In this case, after the comment information is directly input by the user in the comment information input field 52, the registration button 54 is selected, so that the CPU 41 registers the comment information corresponding to the designated date.

Next, as shown in FIG. 5, the CPU 41 determines whether or not the comment information is registered in the comment information input field 52 (step S106). Specifically, as described above, when the registration button 54 is selected by the user while the comment information is input in the comment information input field 52, the CPU 41 determines that the comment information has been registered. If it is determined that the registration has been made (step S106; YES), the CPU 41 stores the registered comment information in the storage unit 45 (step S107), and ends the comment input process. When the check boxes 521 to 523 of the comment information input field 52 are input, the information is also stored in the storage unit 45 together with the comment information.

On the other hand, if it is determined that the comment information is not registered (step S106; NO), the CPU 41 determines whether or not to end the screen display of the comment input screen 5 (step S108). For example, it is determined whether or not to end the screen display based on whether or not the user has performed the operation of closing the comment input screen 5. If it is determined that the screen display of the comment input screen 5 is not finished (step S108; NO), the CPU 41 performs the process of step S106 again. On the other hand, when it is determined that the screen display of the comment input screen 5 is finished (step S108; YES), the CPU 41 ends the comment input process.
The comment input process is performed as described above.

In the process of step S103, a predetermined number of dates are extracted in order from the one with the highest calculated similarity, but the present invention is not limited to this, and for example, the calculated similarity is equal to or higher than the predetermined value. It may be used to extract the date of. In this case, the threshold value of the similarity may be any, and the setting may be arbitrarily changed by the user.

Next, the similarity calculation process performed by the server 4 of the present embodiment will be described with reference to FIGS. 9 and 10. FIG. 9 is a flowchart showing an example of the similarity calculation process. FIG. 10 is a diagram showing an example of the similarity calculated by the similarity calculation process.
Hereinafter, it is assumed that the corresponding comment information is stored in the storage unit 45 on the dates other than the designated dates among the dates shown in FIG.

As shown in FIG. 9, first, the CPU 41 extracts from the storage unit 45 the date in which the comment information is stored among the past dates before the designated date (step S201). Here, as described above, since the corresponding comment information is stored in the dates other than the specified date from "February 1" to "February 18", all the dates before the specified date are extracted. ..

Next, the CPU 41 selects a date from which the similarity has not been calculated yet from the dates extracted in the process of step S201 (step S202). Hereinafter, the date selected in the process of step S202 is also referred to as a target date.

Next, the CPU 41 selects one item from the attribute information of the target date for which the similarity has not been calculated yet (step S203). That is, of the attribute information data table 451 shown in FIG. 3, "day of the week", "holiday", "weather", "minimum temperature", "maximum temperature", "public event", "store event" and "business closing day". From each item, select one that has not been calculated for similarity. As described above, when the information obtained based on the input contents in the check boxes 521 to 523 is stored in the storage unit 45 as one of the attribute information items, the degree of similarity is included in the items. An uncalculated one may be selected.

Next, the CPU 41 determines whether or not the item of the attribute information selected in the process of step S203 matches the item of the attribute information of the specified date specified in the process of step S101 of the comment input process. (Step S204). For example, if the specified date is "February 18" and the "day of the week" item of the attribute information on the target date "February 1" is selected, "February 18" is "Saturday" and "2". Since "Month 1st" is "Wednesday", it is judged that the contents of both do not match. Further, for example, when the designated date is "February 17" and the "weather" item of the attribute information on the target date "February 3" is selected, "February 17" is "sunny". Since "February 3" is "sunny", it is judged that the contents of both are the same.
When "minimum temperature" or "maximum temperature" is selected from the attribute information, the "minimum temperature" or "maximum temperature" of the target date becomes the "minimum temperature" or "maximum temperature" of the specified date. On the other hand, when it is within the range of ± 2 ° C., it is judged to match. For example, if the specified date is "February 18" and the "minimum temperature" item of the attribute information on the target date "February 2" is selected, "February 18" is "3 ° C", Since "February 2" is "1 ° C", it is judged that the contents of both are the same. Further, for example, when the designated date is "February 17" and the item of "maximum temperature" of the attribute information on the target date "February 3" is selected, "February 17" is "11 ° C." , "February 3" is "8 ° C", so it is judged that the contents of both do not match.

When it is determined that the contents of the selected items match (step S204; YES), the CPU 41 adds "1" to the similarity of the target dates (step S205). On the other hand, if it is determined that the contents of the selected items do not match (step S204; NO), the CPU 41 omits the process of step S205 and performs the process of step S206 described later.

Next, the CPU 41 determines whether or not the similarity has been calculated for all the items of the attribute information of the target date (step S206). Specifically, in the attribute information data table 451 shown in FIG. 3, "day of the week", "holiday", "weather", "minimum temperature", "maximum temperature", "public event", "store event" and "business closing". When the similarity is calculated for all the items of "day", it is determined that the similarity is calculated for all the items. As described above, when the information obtained based on the input contents in the check boxes 521 to 523 is stored in the storage unit 45 as one of the attribute information items, all the items including the item are stored. It may be used to determine whether or not the similarity has been calculated.

If it is determined that the similarity has not been calculated for all the items of the target date (step S206; NO), the CPU 41 performs the process of step S203 again.

On the other hand, when it is determined that the similarity has been calculated for all the items of the target date (step S206; YES), the CPU 41 determines whether or not the similarity has been calculated for all the dates extracted in step S201. (Step S207). Here, since the corresponding comment information is stored in the "February 1" to "February 18" other than the specified date as described above, the similarity is calculated for all the dates before the specified date. In this case, it is determined that the similarity has been calculated for all dates.

If it is determined that the similarity has not been calculated for all dates (step S207; NO), the CPU 41 performs the process of step S202 again. On the other hand, when it is determined that the similarity has been calculated for all the dates (step S207; YES), the CPU 41 ends the similarity calculation process.

By performing the similarity calculation process as described above, "February 1" to "February 17" when "February 17" or "February 18" is specified in the comment input process. When the degree of similarity is calculated, the values are as shown in FIG.

For example, if the designated date is "February 17th", it will be as follows.
As for the attribute information of the target date "February 1", the item of "holiday" indicates "weekday", the item of "public event" indicates "0", and the item of "business closing date" indicates "0". It matches the attribute information of the specified date "February 17" in each item of. Therefore, the similarity of the target date "February 1st" is "3" as shown in FIG.
As for the attribute information of the target date "February 8", the item of "holiday" is "weekday", the item of "weather" is "sunny", the item of "maximum temperature" is "9 ℃", and "public event". The item of "" indicates "0", the item of "store event" indicates "0", the item of "business closing date" indicates "0", and the attribute information of the specified date "February 17" in each of these items. Matches with. Therefore, the similarity of the target date "February 8" is "6" as shown in FIG.

Further, for example, when the designated date is "February 18", it becomes as follows.
As for the attribute information of the target date "February 1st", the item of "store event" indicates "1", and only this item matches the attribute information of the designated date "February 18th". Therefore, the similarity of the target date "February 1st" is "1" as shown in FIG.
In addition, as for the attribute information of the target date "February 4", the item of "day of the week" is "Saturday", the item of "holiday" is "day before holiday", the item of "weather" is "cloudy", and "minimum temperature". The item of "4 ℃", the item of "maximum temperature" is "7 ℃", the item of "public event" is "1", and the item of "store event" is "1". It matches the attribute information of the specified date "February 18". Therefore, the similarity of the target date "February 4" is "7" as shown in FIG.

The CPU 41 may calculate the similarity by weighting the attribute information for each item. For example, if the items of "public event" and "store event" match, "3" is added to the similarity, and if the items of "holiday" and "weather" match, the similarity is "2". May be added to calculate the similarity. By weighting each item in this way, it is possible to more accurately extract dates with similar attribute information.
Further, for example, in each item of the attribute information, when the contents that are acquired infrequently match, a higher value may be added to the degree of similarity. For example, there may be a case where the specified date and the target date both match in "snow" in the "weather" item of the attribute information. In this case as well, dates with similar attribute information can be extracted with higher accuracy.
