Description

Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a schedule reservation device, and more particularly to a schedule reservation device that automatically manages reservations of regular schedules that occur periodically at predetermined intervals.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Generally, in a schedule reservation device that automatically reserves a preset regular schedule (composed of a plurality of regular schedule data), a plurality of regular schedule data already registered among the plurality of regular schedule data to be registered. Regarding the regular schedule data that is tried to be registered in duplicate during the time zone (including the date and time, etc.) in which the schedule data is registered, for example, as shown in FIG. 11, a warning such as a warning message is displayed. , The regular schedule data was not registered.

[0003]

However, in the above-mentioned conventional schedule reservation device, it is not shown when the regular schedule data to be registered overlaps with the schedule data of the time zone in which the regular schedule data has already been registered. In order to register the regular schedule data again, the user first has to search for a time period during which the regular schedule data was not registered, which is a troublesome process.

Therefore, the present invention makes it easy for duplicate regular schedules during reservation processing of regular schedules.
It is an object of the present invention to provide a schedule reservation device capable of performing registration, change, cancellation, etc.

[0005]

In order to solve the above-mentioned problems, the present invention provides a first storage means for storing regular schedule data corresponding to a regular schedule that occurs periodically at a predetermined period, and an irregular occurrence. Second storage means for storing normal schedule data corresponding to the normal schedule, determination means for determining whether or not the regular schedule and the normal schedule overlap in the same time zone, the regular schedule and the normal schedule When the same time zone overlaps, the third storage means for storing the handling procedure of the regular schedule data corresponding to the overlapping regular schedule, and the regular procedure based on the handling procedure stored in the third storage means. It is equipped with a processing controller that re-registers the schedule data after changing it or cancels the registration. To.

[0006]

According to the present invention, the first storage means stores the regular schedule data corresponding to the regular schedule which is regularly generated every predetermined period, and the second storage means is the regular schedule which is irregularly generated. The corresponding normal schedule data is stored, and when the regular schedule and the normal schedule are duplicated in the same time zone, the third storage unit stores the handling procedure of the regular schedule data corresponding to the duplicated regular schedule.

On the other hand, the discriminating means is the first storing means and the second storing means.
Based on the stored contents of the storage means, it is determined whether or not the regular schedule and the normal schedule overlap in the same time period, whereby the processing control device causes the regular schedule and the normal schedule to overlap in the same time period. In this case, the regular schedule data is changed and then re-registered based on the handling procedure stored in the third storage means, or the registration is stopped.

Therefore, even when the regular schedule is already registered and cannot be duplicated when the regular schedule is registered, the regular schedules in the overlapping time zones are to be processed according to the preset handling procedure. You can change or cancel registration on the spot.

FIG. 4 shows an example of the structure of regular schedule data. As the regular schedule data, almost the same as the regular schedule data, the schedule item data indicating the application target of the regular schedule data, the code data indicating the identification code of the applicable schedule data, and the start date indicating the start date of the schedule. Day data, end date data indicating the end date of the schedule, start time data indicating the start time of the schedule, end time data indicating the end time of the schedule, cycle data indicating the occurrence cycle of the regular schedule Usage data indicating the contents of the schedule and remarks data indicating the location of the schedule are stored. The configuration of the regular schedule data is not limited to these, and may be changed as appropriate.

FIG. 5 is an example of change mode data showing how the regular schedule is processed when the regular schedule and the normal schedule overlap in time zone.

In the present embodiment, it is assumed that the storage device 14 stores change mode data of the automatic setting change mode of "set on the next day (next business day)". As other change mode data, "change input" mode that prompts the user to change the duplicate regular schedule data when the schedules overlap, and when the schedules overlap, do not register the duplicate regular schedule "delete"
There are modes etc.

Next, the operation of this embodiment will be described with reference to the flow charts of FIGS. First, the user uses the input device 16 to input new schedule data as regular schedule information (step S1). Specifically, as shown in FIG.
Every Tuesday between 31st March 1993 13: 00-1
At 5:00, the regular schedule data indicating that the regular conference is used for the purpose in the conference room B is input.

As a result, the schedule information updating device 15
Checks the storage device 11 storing the normal schedule information as to whether or not the normal schedule has already been registered at the date and time when the regular schedule is to be registered (step S2).

Next, it is judged whether or not there are overlapping schedules (step S3). If the schedule data do not overlap, the target regular schedule information is stored in the storage device 12.
(Step S5).

However, in the determination in step S3, as shown in the individual normal schedule data of FIG.
When the regular schedule data and the regular schedule data corresponding to the business trip on 9 (Tue) overlap, the overlapping schedule changing process described later is performed (step S4).

The overlapping schedule changing process will be described below with reference to the flowchart of FIG.

The schedule information updating device 15 refers to the storage device 14 storing the regular schedule change mode information (step S10) and determines the change mode (step S11).

A) In the case where the change mode data is set to the mode "set the next (business) day" for the overlapping regular schedule, the regular schedule is on or after the overlapping date. Search for business days for which the schedule can be set in the same time zone as (step S1)
2) When the corresponding business day is found, as shown in FIG. 8, the user is asked whether or not the business day can be displayed on the display screen of the display device 17 and the schedule can be set on the business day ( Step S13).

Accordingly, it is determined whether or not the duplicate regular schedule may be set on the business day according to the result of the inquiry (step S14), and if it is set, the business day is set. As the start date and end date,
Schedule item data in the regular schedule,
Code data, start time data, end time data, application data, and remarks data are registered in the normal schedule data (step S18). After that, the schedule item data, code data, start time data, end time data, usage data, and remarks data of the regular schedule data are set as the start date and end date when the regular schedule data overlaps with the regular schedule. , Storage device 1
The data is stored in the regular schedule deletion information data in 3 (step S19), and the process ends.

The regular schedule deletion information data will be described with reference to FIG. The regular schedule deletion information data is, like the regular schedule data, schedule item data indicating the application target of the regular schedule data, code data indicating the applicable target, start date data indicating the start date of the schedule, End date data indicating the end date of the schedule,
The start time data indicating the start time of the schedule, the end time data indicating the end time of the schedule, the usage data indicating the contents of the schedule, and the remark data indicating the location of the schedule are stored.
The structure of the regular schedule deletion information data can be changed as appropriate according to the structure of the regular schedule data.

When the regular schedule is output to the display device 17 or the printing device 18, the regular schedule deletion information data is referred to, and the portion overlapping the normal schedule is excluded from the regular schedule.

Further, in the determination of step S14, if the user does not want to set the regular schedule of the overlapped portion on the business day, the user inputs the schedule change date via the input device 16 (step S15).

Here, the schedule information updating device 15 is
The input schedule data of the modification date is checked (step S16), and it is determined whether the schedule can be set in the same time zone as the regular schedule on the modification date (step S17).

If the schedule can be set in the determination in step S17, the change date is set to the start date,
And, as the end date, the schedule item data, the code data, the start time data, the end time data, the usage data, and the remark data in the regular schedule data are registered as the normal schedule data (step S18).
After that, the schedule item data, the code data, the start time data, the end time data, the usage data, and the remark data in the regular schedule data are stored in the storage device 1 with the dates on which the regular schedules are duplicated as the start date and the end date.
The data is stored in the regular schedule deletion information data in 3 (step S19), and the process ends.

B) When the change mode data is set to "change input", the user inputs the schedule change date via the input device 16 (step S1).
5).

Here, the schedule information updating device 15 is
The schedule data of the change date is checked (step S16), and it is determined whether the schedule can be set in the same time zone as the regular schedule on the change date (step S17).

When the schedule can be set in the determination in step S17, the schedule item data, the code data, the start time data in the regular schedule data are set with the change date as the start date and the end date.
The end time data, the usage data, and the remarks data are registered as normal schedule data (step S18). After that, the schedule item data, the code data, the start time data, the end time data, the usage data, and the remark data in the regular schedule data are stored in the storage device with the date when the regular schedules are duplicated as the start date and end date. The data is stored in the regular schedule deletion information data in 13 (step S19), and the process ends.

If the setting cannot be made in the determination in step S17, a message to that effect is displayed on the display device 17 and the state of waiting for input of the change date is entered again.

C) When the change mode data is set to the "cancel" mode, the regular schedule data is not set, and the dates overlapping the normal schedule are set as the start date and end date. Schedule item data in regular schedule data, code data,
The start time data, the end time data, the usage data, and the remarks data are stored in the storage device 13 as the regular schedule deletion information data (step S19), and the process ends.

Here, a more specific processing example will be described.
Here, 13:00 to 1 on Tuesday, July 9, 1992
A process of registering a regular schedule for holding a regular conference in the conference room B at 5:00 will be described.

In this case, the business trip meeting schedule has already been set as the normal schedule data at 8:00 to 18:00 on Tuesday, July 9, 1992 (see FIG. 2). In the example, since the change mode data is the “set to the next (business) day” mode, the regular schedule updating device 15 displays the schedule data reset on the next day on the display device 17, and
Change to Conference Room B from 13:00 to 15:00 on Wednesday, July 10, 992. In this case, the changed regular schedule information is stored in the storage device 13 that stores the regular schedule deletion information data as the regular schedule deletion information data by the regular schedule information updating device 15. As a result, as shown in FIG. 9, the storage device 13 stores the regular schedule deletion information data. The changed regular schedule data is stored as normal schedule data by the schedule information updating device 15 in the storage device 11 that stores the normal schedule data. The storage state of the normal schedule data resulting from this is shown in FIG. In the figure, the changed portions are indicated by wavy lines.

Then, the fact is displayed on the display device 17, and the process is terminated. As described above, according to the present embodiment, even if the regular schedule reservation overlaps with the already registered normal schedule, it is not necessary to search for which schedule overlaps, and on the spot. You can register a new schedule.

[0038]

According to the present invention, after the regular schedule and the normal schedule are overlapped in the same time zone by the processing control device, the regular schedule data is changed based on the handling procedure stored in the third storage means. Re-register,
Alternatively, because registration is canceled, when you try to register a regular schedule, even if the normal schedule has already been registered and you cannot register it in duplicate, according to the preset handling procedure, This has the effect of changing the regular schedule or canceling registration on the spot.
