Abstract

PURPOSE:To perform backup in detail by considering the significance, size, and access frequency of information, etc., by saving office managing information by extracting logically, and storing the office managing information extracted logically by unifying to the office managing information. CONSTITUTION:An office managing information input means 5 reads in the office managing information from office managing files 3 and 4 in memory devices 1 and 2, and an office managing information extraction means 7 extracts read in office managing information logically. An office managing information unifying means 8 unifies extracted office managing information logically, and an office managing information output means 6 writes the office managing information on an office managing file. In such a way, it is possible to realize an office managing information logical saving/storing device respondable to the shift, the division, and the unification of a system.

Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION (Field of Industrial Application) The present invention relates to an office management system, and particularly to an apparatus for logically saving/storing office management information of an office management file.

(Prior art) Conventionally, in an office management system, when saving/storing office management information on an office management file, the office management file is saved to a disk, or the data is saved in a file for each area of the office management database. Methods of physically saving/storing office management files, such as by copying them, have been known.

(Problem to be Solved by the Invention) In an office management system, it is essential to back up office management files in order to handle a large amount of data, but since it is only possible to perform a physical backup of each file, some parts of the office management information cannot be backed up. Even if you back up only the file, there is a drawback that all information in the file must be saved. Another disadvantage is that it cannot handle the migration, division, and integration of office management file information associated with system migration, division, and integration.

An object of the present invention is to read office management information from an office management file on a storage device, logically extract it, logically integrate the extracted office management information, and write it into the office management file. An object of the present invention is to provide an office management information logical evacuation/storage device that is configured to be able to handle system removal, system migration, division, and integration.

(Means for Solving the Problems) The office management information logical saving/storage device according to the present invention has the following features:
The apparatus includes an office management information input means, an office management information extraction means, an office management information integration means, and an office management information output means.

The office management information input means is for reading office management information from the office management file on the storage device, and the office management information extraction means is for logically extracting the read office management information. The office management information integration means is for logically integrating the extracted office management information, and the office management information output means is for writing the office management information into an office management file.

(Implementation row) Next, the present invention will be explained with reference to the drawings.

FIG. 1 is a block diagram illustrating an embodiment of an office management information logical backup/storage device according to the present invention. In FIG. 1, 5 is an office management file managed by the office management system, and 1 is a storage device for storing the office management file S.

Further, 4 is an office management file logically extracted from the office management file S, and is a storage device for storing the two files 4. Reference numerals 6 and 8 denote an office management information input section and an office management information output section, which input and output office management files on the storage devices 1 and 2, respectively. 7 and 8 are an office management information extraction section and an office management information integration section, respectively, which logically divide or integrate the office management information. The host is an office management control unit, 1 is a keyboard input device, and 11 is a display device.

Usually, the office management system is an office management file S.
, 4, an office management information input section 6, an office management file output section 8, an office management information extraction section 7, an office management information integration section 8, an office management control section 9, a keyboard input device 10. and a display device 11.

FIG. 2 shows the office management information file 3 shown in FIG.
4 is an explanatory diagram showing the structure of No. 4. FIG.

In FIG. 2, office management information is information managed by the office management system, and includes office information such as office ID, office name, email number, and affiliated users, owned mailbox, and email information such as email. It is composed of file information such as owned cabinets, folders, documents, etc., and is physically realized on the office management file 3 on the storage value #1.

One piece of office management information is realized as a collection of sub-information such as office information, mail information, and file information in the office management file configuration.

Furthermore, the office management information itself has a hierarchical structure by grouping multiple pieces of office management information.

In this way, office management information is composed of a hierarchical structure of several physical records. The present invention is not based on the physical record unit of these office management information.
This enables saving and storage in logical units.

The office management information is read from the office management file 1 by the office management information input section S. The read office management information is logically traced through the structure of the office management information by the office management information extraction section 7, and all logical partial information of the office management information is extracted.

FIG. 8 is an explanatory diagram showing the file structure of logically extracted office management information.

The extracted office management information 1B is composed of a location representing a logical storage location of data and management information of the data, and is stored in the storage device! by the office management information output unit 6. Written above as file 4. As a result, the office management information is logically saved. In addition, the extracted office management information is read from the storage device 2 by the office management information input section 5. The read office management information is sent to the office management information integration unit 8, and the office management information integration unit 3 reads the logical storage location of the data and determines in which part of the office management file δ the office management information should be stored. The office management information integration unit 3 determines whether to add the information. Next, when office management information to be added to the office management file 2 is inputted by the office management information output section 8, the data is written into the office management file S by the office management information output section 6. This allows logical storage of office management information.

(Effects of the Invention) As explained above, the present invention can logically extract and save office management information, or logically extract and store office management information by integrating it into office management information. Rather than simply backing up individual files, we are now considering the importance and size of office management information.
This also has the effect of making it possible to perform detailed backups in consideration of access frequency and the like. Another advantage is that it becomes possible to migrate, divide, and integrate office management information of office management files in conjunction with system migration, division, and integration.
