Further, in the announcement type information table 100, the contents of the above-mentioned items corresponding to the “issue type” corresponding to all the operations on the organization chart executed in the present embodiment other than those described above are also included. It is registered. For example, the contents of each of the above items are also registered for the “issue type” for the “delete” operation.

FIG. 8 is a diagram for explaining another pattern for changing the organization chart. In the case of organizational change, it is possible that an entire department may move to another department. The example shown in FIG. 8 is such an example.

FIG. 8A is an organization chart before change displayed on the display device 30. As shown in FIG.
Before the organizational change, the Human Resources Department and the General Affairs Department belonged to the General Affairs Headquarters. Under the Human Resources Department, there are a personnel department and a recruitment department. In other words, this organization chart is a hierarchical structure with the General Affairs Headquarters at the top of the tree, the Human Resources Department and the General Affairs Department under this tree, and the Human Resources Section and the Recruiting Section under the Human Resources Department. . And the general affairs headquarters,
The personnel department, the general affairs department, the personnel department, and the recruiting department constitute blocks having one or a plurality of employees as members (components), and these blocks are connected in a tree shape.

Consider a case where an organizational change is carried out in which the hiring section is moved from the subordinate of the personnel department to the subordinate of the general affairs department in the above organizational chart. In this case, in this embodiment, the user performs the following operation.

First, for example, the rectangular frame 311 of the recruitment section is
Specify by clicking the mouse. Next, in order to specify the destination of the hiring section, a rectangular frame 321 of the personnel section
Click on the right side of with a mouse or the like.

By the above operation, as shown in FIG. 8B, the entire display area 310 of the recruiting section is moved below the general affairs section, and the rectangular frame 303 of the general affairs section and the rectangular frame 311 of the recruiting section are perpendicular to each other. It is connected by 321. Further, the entire display area 320 of the personnel department also moves directly below the personnel department, and the rectangular frame 301 of the personnel department and the rectangular frame 321 of the personnel department are connected by a vertical line 322.

In addition to the above operation, the operation of dragging the rectangular frame 311 of the hiring section to the lower part of the rectangular frame 301 of the general affairs department with a mouse may be performed. As described above, in the organization chart shown in FIG. 8A, the data structure of the organization chart is changed by changing the affiliation of the recruitment section from the personnel department to the general affairs department as shown in FIG. 8B. become.

FIG. 9 is a diagram showing the data structure of the organization chart before change shown in FIG. 8A stored in the belonging file 52. In the figure, five belonging records 52r-11, 52r-12, 52r-13, to which the symbols ~ are given,
52r-14, and 52-15 are shown.

The above-mentioned items 1 to 3 respectively represent the following departments. That is, the affiliation record 52r of: the affiliation record 52 of the general affairs headquarters
Affiliation record 52r of r-11: Affiliation record 52r of the personnel department
-12 affiliation record 52r: HR department affiliation record 52r
Affiliation record 52r of -13: Affiliation record 52r of the recruiting section
Affiliation record 52r of -14: Affiliation record 52r of the General Affairs Department
-15 Next, these five belonging records 52r-11 to 52r
The chain structure of −15 will be described.

This chain starts from the affiliation record 52r-11 of the general affairs headquarters. That is, the affiliation code of the affiliation record 52r-12 of the personnel department is set in the "lower affiliation" item of the affiliation record 52r-11 of the general affairs headquarters.

Also, the affiliation record 52r-12 of the personnel department
In the "Higher affiliation" item of, the affiliation record 52 of the General Affairs Division
The affiliation code of r-11 is set. Further, in the “co-affiliation” item, the affiliation record 52r− of the general affairs department
15 affiliation codes are set. Further, in the "subordinate affiliation" item, the affiliation record 52r-13 of the personnel department
The affiliation code of is set.

Further, the affiliation record 52r- of the personnel section
In the item 13 “upper affiliation”, the affiliation record 5 of the HR department
The affiliation code of 2r-12 is set. In addition, in the "same affiliation" item, the affiliation record 52r- of the recruitment section
14 affiliation codes are set.

Further, the affiliation record 5 of the recruiting section
In the "upper affiliation" item of 2r-14, the affiliation code of the affiliation record 52r-12 of the personnel department is set. Then, "upper affiliation" of the affiliation record 52r-15 of the general affairs department
The affiliation code of the affiliation record 52r-11 of the general affairs headquarters is set in the item.

Based on the chain structure of the affiliation records 52r-11 to 52r-15 by the affiliation code as described above, the organization chart editing unit 70 sequentially assigns the affiliation records 52r-11 to 52r-15 from the affiliation file 52. Read
The organization chart shown in FIG. 8A is displayed on the screen of the display device 30.

FIG. 10 is a diagram showing the data structure of the organization chart in the belonging file 52 which is changed by the organization chart editing unit 70 due to the organization change shown in FIG. 8B.

As can be seen by comparing (a) and (b) of FIG. 8, the affiliation record 52r-14 of the hiring section is naturally changed by the above organizational change. That is, the affiliation code of the general affairs department is set in the "upper affiliation" item of the affiliation record 52r-14. In addition, the items of “X coordinate” and “Y coordinate” are also changed with the change of the display position on the screen (in this case, only the X coordinate is changed). Further, the affiliation record 52r-15 of the general affairs department is also changed. That is, the affiliation code of the hiring section is set in the "lower affiliation" item of the affiliation record 52r-15, and it is registered that the hiring section is now in the general affairs department.

[0124] Further, since the personnel department, which was a department belonging to the recruiting department, is changed to another department, the record 5 belonging to the recruiting department.
The item "2nd-13""Affiliation" is cleared. As a result, the recruiting section is removed from the personnel department. Further, since the display position on the screen is also changed, the items of "X coordinate" and "Y coordinate" are also changed (in this case, only the X coordinate is changed).

The above is the result of the change in the organizational chart shown in FIG.
Affiliation record 52r-1 stored in the affiliation file 52
1 to 52r-15. In this way, when the affiliation of the recruitment section is changed from the personnel department to the general affairs department, all employees belonging to the recruitment section are subject to personnel transfer.

In this case, although not shown in FIGS. 9 and 10, the "X coordinate" item of the employee record 54r of the employee belonging to the hiring section and the personnel section is also changed. That is, the content of the employee file 54 is also changed.

FIG. 11 shows the display device 3 in this embodiment.
It is a figure explaining the operation method which changes the organization chart as shown in above-mentioned FIG. 8 on the screen of 0. FIG. 11 is a diagram showing an organizational chart of the business headquarters H1 displayed on the display device 30. As shown in the figure, there are two departments B6 and B7 below the business headquarters H3. Under one section B6, there are two sections K11 and K12. The other section B7 has one section K13. In the figure, the display of employees is omitted except for the section K11. That is, this organizational chart is
With the business headquarters H1 as the top of the tree, departments 6 and 7 are subordinate to this, and sections K11 and K12 are subordinates of department B6.
Is a hierarchical diagram of a tree structure in which the section K13 belongs to the department B7. Then, the headquarters H3, the section B6,
The section B7, the section K11, the section K12, and the section K13 constitute a block having one or a plurality of employees as members (constituent elements), and these blocks are connected in a tree shape.

In such an organization chart, the above section K11
When moving the part B4 to the part B5, first, the input part 2
Select the "move" function via 0. Next, by clicking with a mouse or the like, a rectangle surrounding the belonging name of the section K11 (rectangular frame of belonging name) is designated as a movement target.
Next, the position on the right side of the section K13 is specified by clicking the mouse. By the above operation, the entire section K11 moves as shown by the arrow P in FIG.

As a result, the organization chart shown in FIG.
It is changed as shown in. That is, the rectangular frame of the belonging name of the section B6 and the rectangular frame of the belonging name of the section K12 under it are connected by a vertical line 351. Further, the rectangular frame having the belonging name of the section B7 and the rectangular frames having the belonging names of the sections K13 and K11 are connected. At this time, the display position of section K13 moves in parallel to the left side of the screen.

As described above, when a certain department is moved to the subordinate of another higher department in the organization chart, the operation "move" is first selected. Then, next, after designating the rectangular frame of the belonging name of the department as the movement target, it is only necessary to designate the destination of the rectangular frame of the department. As a result, the entire designated department is connected to the above-mentioned higher department and is under its control. In addition to the above operation, a drag operation with a mouse may be used.

In the example shown in FIGS. 11 and 12, all employees belonging to the section K11 are subject to transfer. Therefore, in the above example, all employees A of section K11 shown in FIG.
"Change" issuance record 56r for X, Y, and Z
Is created.

Note that the operations shown in FIGS. 11 and 12 are merely examples, and the operation of "moving" to a department may be transferred not only to the company but also to another company (head office or subsidiary). At this time, when a department moves from its own company to another company, the employees belonging to the department are “seconded”. Conversely, if a department moves from another company to its own company,
Employees who belong to that department will be sent back to work.

In FIG. 13, as described above, when the department is moved in the organization chart, the official announcement processing unit 90
It is a figure which shows the content of the announcement type information table 100 referred when creating the announcement record 56r.

In the official announcement type information table 100, one line is made up of items of "annual announcement type", "operation attribute", and "top of tree". "Type of announcement": The type of announcement of personnel changes ("transfer", "seconded", "seconded", etc.).

"Operation attribute": The type of operation ("move", etc.) on the organization chart display screen. "Top of tree": Information indicating the pattern of change at the top of the tree of the organization chart to which the operation-targeted department belongs.

When the "move" operation is executed for a certain department on the organization chart displayed on the display device 30, the official announcement processing unit 90 displays the "operation attribute" from the official announcement type information table 100. The type of the announcement is determined by reading the content of the "type of announcement" item in which the contents of the items "" and "top of tree" match.

FIG. 14 is a diagram showing various patterns of operation for moving a department on the organization chart on the display screen. In the figure (a), when department C belongs to department B,
The operation for inserting the department A between the department B and the department C is shown. That is, in this case, the department A is higher than the department B (upper insertion). The operation in this case is performed as follows, for example. The user first selects the department A, and then selects the “upper insertion” function. Next, the mouse cursor 411 is moved to the upper part of the rectangular frame 401 of the department C and the mouse is clicked to specify the upper position.

Next, FIG. 14 (b) shows an operation of causing the department A to belong to the department C when the department C belongs to the department B. That is, in this case, department A
Becomes a subordinate of department B (inserted below). In this case, the user first selects the department A, and then selects the “insert below” function. Next, the mouse cursor 411 is moved to the lower part of the rectangular frame 401 of the department C and the mouse is clicked to specify the lower position.

Next, FIG. 14 (c) shows an operation in which when the department C belongs to the department B, the department A belongs to the same department as the department B. That is, in this case, the department A becomes the same as the department B. In this case, department A
Is located to the right of department B, so the operation is "insert lower right". . In this case, the user first selects the department A, and then selects the "insert right" function. Next, the mouse cursor 411 is moved to the right part of the rectangular frame 401 of the department C and the mouse is clicked to specify the right part position.

Next, the operation of the above embodiment will be described with reference to the flowchart of FIG. First, the organization chart creation unit 60 creates an organization chart at the present time based on the belonging file 52 and the employee file 54 of the personnel database 50 (S1).

Then, the created organization chart is displayed on the screen of the display device 30 (S2). By the above processing,
For example, an organization chart as shown in FIG. 3A is displayed on the screen.

Subsequently, the user designates either "move" or "copy" operation in order to execute the personnel change processing for the above-mentioned organization chart through the input section 20 (S).
3). When the above-mentioned function designation is made, the organization chart editing unit 70 displays, for example, a message "Please specify the position (original position) of the employee or department to be moved or copied" on the screen of the display device 30. Display in the message display area.

When the above message is displayed, the user designates the employee or department to be operated by using a pointing device such as a mouse provided in the input unit 20 (S4).

This designation is made, for example, by clicking the display area of the employee or the rectangular frame display of the department with the mouse. The organization chart editing unit 70 stores the Y coordinate of the designated position in the register U1 (S5).

Subsequently, it is determined whether or not the designated position is the display position of the department by referring to the belonging file 52 (S6). That is, in this case, the belonging file 52
Affiliation record 52 of the department stored in the organization chart currently displayed on the screen of the display device 30.
By referring to the "X coordinate" and "Y coordinate" items of r, it is determined whether or not the designated position is within the rectangular frame display of the department. In addition, by referring to the “X coordinate” and “Y coordinate” items of the employee record 54r stored in the employee file 54 and currently arranged on the organization chart displayed on the display device 30, , It is determined whether or not the designated position is within the employee display area.

If the designated position is the employee's display position (step S6, NO), the employee is placed at the position designated by the user on the organization chart displayed on the screen.
A process of "moving" or "copying" is executed (S7). The employee moving / copying process of step S7 is performed by the process shown in FIG.
This is processing corresponding to various operations shown in.

16 and 17 are diagrams for explaining the details of the employee moving / copying process. In this process, the organization chart editing unit 70 first uses the (X, Y) coordinates of the original position designated in step S4 of FIG. 14 as a key to display the screen currently displayed on the display device 30 in the employee file 54. All employee records placed in the displayed organization chart 5
For 4r, the "X coordinate" and "Y coordinate" items are searched (S21).

Then, the corresponding employee record 54r having the same (X, Y) coordinates is read from the employee file 54 and the content is stored in the register A (S22). Next, the affiliation code at the top of the tree of the organization chart to which the relevant employee record 54r belongs is searched, and the affiliation code is registered in the register T.
It is stored in 1 (S23).

This search is performed by the employee record 54r.
Of the affiliation record 52r having the affiliation code set in the "affiliation code" item of
This is done by searching the chain of 2r in the higher direction.

Then, the "affiliation code" item of the relevant employee record 54r stored in the register A1 is stored in the register S1 (S24). Next, the organization chart editor 7
In the case of 0, the message "Please specify the position (destination position) of the move destination or copy destination" is displayed on the screen of the display device 30.

In response to the message, the user specifies the position (destination position) of the "destination" or "copy destination" by clicking the mouse or the like via the input unit 20 (S25).

The organization chart editing unit 70 uses the (X,
The Y) coordinate is received from the CPU 10 and the Y coordinate is stored in the register U1 (S26). Then, the organization chart editor 7
0 refers to the employee file 54 based on the (X, Y) coordinates of the preceding position and retrieves the employee record 54r corresponding to the (X, Y) coordinates (S27).

Then, when the corresponding employee record 54r is read from the employee file 54, this is read in the register A2.
(28). Then, similarly to step S23, the top affiliation code of the tree of the organization chart to which the relevant employee record 54r belongs is searched, and the affiliation code is stored in the register T2 (S29).

Next, the "affiliation code" item of the relevant employee record 54r stored in the register A2 is stored in the register S2 (S30). Further, subsequently, in FIG.
It is determined whether the attribute of the operation designated in step S3 of the flowchart is "move" or "copy" (S31).

If the attribute of the above operation is "move", the employee corresponding to the employee record 54r is referred to by referring to the "upper member" item of the employee record 54r stored in the register A1. It is determined whether or not there is a higher-level member in (operation target employee) (S32).

If there is a higher-level member, the employee record 54r of the higher-level member is read from the employee file 54 and stored in the register A3 (S33). Next, register A to see if the above-mentioned target employees have subordinate members.
The item "subordinate member" of the employee record 54r of the target employee stored in No. 1 is referred to, and it is determined whether or not there is a subordinate member (S34).

If there is a subordinate member (S3
4, YES), the employee record 54r stored in the register A1, that is, the employee record 54r of the operation target employee is deleted from the employee file 54 (S3).
5). Next, the "employee code" item of the employee record 54r stored in the register A4 is copied to the "lower member" item of the employee record 54r stored in the register A1 (S37).

Through the above processing, in the department to which the operation target employee belongs, the operation target employee is excluded, and the employee record 54r and the register A4 of the upper constituent member of the operation target employee stored in the register A3. And the employee record 54r of the lower-level member stored in the
Directly linked.

Next, the employee record 54r stored in the register A3 in which the item "lower member" is changed is written in the employee file 54 (S38). As a result, the updated employee record 54r of the upper-level member is written in the employee file 54.

Subsequently, the register A3 is added to the "upper member" item of the employee record 54r stored in the register A4.
"Employee code" of employee record 54r stored in
The contents of the item are copied (S39).

As a result, the employee record 54r of the higher-level member and the employee record 5 of the lower-level member of the above-mentioned operation target employee
4r is directly linked by the "upper member" item of the lower member.

Then, the "Y coordinate" item of the employee record 54r stored in the register A4 is decremented by "1" (S47). Then, the employee record 54r stored in the register A4 changed as described above is written in the employee file 54 (S48).

As a result, in the personnel database 50, the upper member and the lower member are directly linked. On the other hand, if the subordinate member does not exist in step S34 (S34, NO), the "subordinate member" item stored in the register A3 is cleared (S40).

As a result of the movement of the operation subject employee, there is no subordinate member among the upper members of the operation subject employee. Next, the employee record 54r stored in the register A3 is written to the employee file 54 (S4
1) Then, the process proceeds to step S52 described later.

As a result, the updated employee record 54r of the above-mentioned upper member is written in the employee file 54. As a result, in the personnel database 50, only the employee who is a higher-rank member of the operation target employee belongs to the department to which the operation target employee belongs.

In step S32, if there is no upper member of the operation subject employee (S32, N
O), employee record 54 stored in register A1
The "affiliation code" item is read from r and this employee record 54r is stored in the register B1 (S42).

Next, it is determined whether or not there is a subordinate member of the operation subject employee by referring to the "subordinate member" item of the employee record 54r stored in the register A1 (S43).

Then, if there is no subordinate member (S
43, NO), and proceeds to step S52 described later. on the other hand,
If a subordinate member exists (S43, YES), the employee record 54r of the subordinate member having the employee code set in the "subordinate member" item is stored in the employee file 54.
Read from the memory and store it in the register A4 (S4
4).

Next, the "employee code" of the employee record 54r stored in the register A4 is copied to the "member" item of the belonging record 52r stored in the register B1 (S45).

Then, the "upper member" item of the employee record 54r stored in the register A4 is cleared (S
46). Then, the "Y coordinate" item of the employee record 54r stored in the register A4 is decremented by "1" (S47). Then, the employee record 54r stored in the register A4 changed as described above is written in the employee file 54 (S48).

Through the above processing, the personnel database 50
As the first employee of the department to which the operation subject employee belongs, an employee who is a subordinate member of the operation subject employee is registered in the.

Next, the employee record 54r is stored in the register A4.
It is determined whether or not there is a subordinate member of the employee in which is stored by referring to the "subordinate member" item of the employee record 54r (S49).

If the subordinate member exists (S4
(9, YES), the employee record 54r having the employee code set in the "subordinate member" item is read from the employee file 54. The employee record 54r is the employee record 54r of the subordinate member. Then, this employee record 54r is stored in the register A5 (S5
0).

Next, the employee record 54r stored in the register A5 is copied to the register A4 (S5
1). Then, the processes of steps S47 to S48 are executed again.

As a result, the "Y coordinate" item is decremented by "1" in the employee record 54r of the subordinate member of the subordinate member of the operation subject employee. That is, when the organization chart is displayed on the screen, the display position moves upward by one line (upward direction of Y coordinate).

Thereafter, the processes of steps S47 to S51 are repeated until it is determined in step S49 that there is no subordinate member (S49, NO). In other words, the process for moving the display position up by one line for all the employees located at the lower ranks of the operation target employee is "Y" in the employee record 54r of those employees.
It is applied to the "coordinates" item.

If it is determined in step 49 that there is no subordinate member, the process proceeds to step S52 described later. Through the above processing, in the personnel database 50, the operation target employee is deleted from the department to which the operation target employee belongs, and the display position of the employee who is a subordinate employee of the operation target employee is displayed by one line. Move to (upward direction of Y coordinate).

In this way, in the personnel database 50, the employee composition of the original department to which the operation subject employee belongs is changed. Next, the processes after step S52 shown in the flowchart of FIG. 16 will be described. Step 41 above
If it is determined NO in step S43, and further, if the attribute of the designated operation is "copy" in step S31, the process proceeds to step S52.

The process to be described below is a process for changing the employee composition of the department to which the operation-target employee is moved or copied. In step 52, it is determined whether or not there is a higher-level member of the employee whose employee record 54r is stored in the register A2 by referring to the "upper-level member" item of the employee record 54r.

If the upper member does not exist (S52, NO), the affiliation record 52r having the affiliation code set in the "affiliation code" item of the employee record 54r stored in the register A2 belongs. It is read from the file 52 and stored in the register B2 (S5
3).

Next, the "employee code" of the employee record 54r stored in the register A1 is copied to the "member" item of the belonging file 52r stored in the register B2 (S54).

Then, the "upper member" item of the employee record 54r stored in the register A1 is cleared (S55). Through the above-described processing, the employee who has been moved or copied and whose employee record 54r is stored in the register A1 (operation target employee) is set to be the first employee in the department of the destination of the move or the concurrent job. .

On the other hand, if there is a higher-level member in step S52 (S52, YES), the "high-level member" item of the employee record 54r stored in the register A1 is changed to
The contents of the item "upper member" of the employee record 54r stored in the register A2 are copied (S56).

[0184] As a result, the employee subject to the above operation records the employee record 5 in the register A2 in the department to which he / she is transferred or concurrently serving.
It is set as a subordinate member of the employee who stores 4r. After performing the processing of step S55 or S56, the employee record 54r stored in the register A1
The content of the "affiliation code" item of the employee record 54r stored in the register A2 is copied to the "affiliation code" item of (S57).

Next, the contents of the "X seat" and "Y seat" items of the employee record 54r stored in the register A2 are set to the employee record 54 stored in the register A1.
Copy to the "X seat" and "Y seat" items of r (S
58).

Subsequently, the employee record 54r of the operation subject employee whose contents stored in the register A1 are changed.
Is written in the employee file 54 (S59). continue,
The belonging record 52r stored in the register B2 is written to the belonging file 52 (S60).

Through the above processing, the personnel database 5
0, the location of the employee to be operated in the transfer destination or the post serving concurrently is registered. Next, the "Y coordinate" item of the employee record 54r stored in the register A2 is set to "
It is incremented by 1 "(S61).

Then, the employee record 54r stored in the changed register A2 is written in the employee file 54 (S62). As a result, the personnel database 5
0, the employee whose employee record 54r is stored in the register A2 is registered as a subordinate member of the above-mentioned operation target employee on the organization chart.

Next, whether the employee code is set in the "lower member" item of the employee record 54r stored in the register A2, that is, the lower member of the employee whose employee record 54r is stored in the register A2. It is determined whether or not exists (S63).

If the subordinate member exists (S6
3, YES), the employee record 54r of the employee having the employee code set in the above-mentioned "subordinate member" item is read from the employee file 54. Then, the employee record 54r is stored in the register A5 (S64).

Next, the employee record 54r stored in the register A5 is stored in the register A2 (S65), and the process returns to the step S61. Then, the processes of steps S61 to S62 are executed for the employee record 54r newly stored in the register A2. Then, again in step S63, it is determined whether or not the affiliation code is set in the "subordinate member" item of the employee record 54r stored in the register A2. Then, if the belonging code is not set (S63, NO), the process ends.

In this way, in the personnel database 50, in the department to which the employee to be moved or copied newly belongs, the organizational chart of the employee who is a subordinate member of the employee is displayed. The display position of is registered so as to be lowered by one line.

Taking the example of the organizational chart shown in FIG. 3, in the "Recruiting Section" of "Kyoko Yamamoto", the display position of "Jiro Takahashi" and "Goro Kobayashi" is one line. Minutes will go down.

Returning to the explanation of the flow chart of FIG. 16 and 1 by the organization chart editor 70 described above.
When the employee moving / copying process of step S7 shown in the flowchart of FIG. 7 is completed, the announcement processing unit 90 in turn issues the registers S1, S2, T1, T2, U1 and U2.
On the basis of the contents stored in and the type of operation (moving or copying), the official announcement type information table 100 is referred to, and all employees who are the targets of official announcement are notified of the personnel changes of the employees subject to the operation. On the other hand, the type of the announcement that determines the type of the announcement is determined (S8).
It is determined by a combination of three types of information (movement or copying), “change of top of tree”, and “change of employee belonging code”.

The announcement processing unit 90 determines the "change of the top of the tree" by checking the belonging codes set in the registers T1 and T2. As for "change of employee belonging code", registers S1 and S
Judgment is made by checking the affiliation code set in 2. Furthermore, the “operation attribute” is the same as in step S3.
Is determined by the operation designated by the user.

Then, by referring to the official announcement type information table 100, the following "official announcement type" is determined. Change: "Operation attribute" is "move" and "change of tree top" is "in-house → in-house" and "change of employee affiliation code" is "change".

Change (promotion): When the condition of "change of Y coordinate to higher rank" is added to the condition of "change". Seconded: "Operation attribute" is "move" and "change of tree top" is "in-house → other company" and "change of employee affiliation code" is "change".

Transferring and returning: "Operation attribute" is "move" and "tree top change" is "other company → own company" and "employee affiliation code change" is "change". Concurrent post: “Operation attribute” is “copy” and “change of tree top” is “in-house → in-house” and “change of employee affiliation code” is “change”.

Promotion: "Operation attribute" is "move" and "change of tree top" is "company-to-company", "change of employee affiliation code" is "change", and "Y coordinate is higher" That is the case.

Demotion: "Operation attribute" is "Move" and "Change of tree top" is "Own → Own", "Change of employee's affiliation code" is "Change", and "Y coordinate is low" That is the case.

After determining the "issue type" as described above, an issue record having the format shown in FIG. 2C is created, and this issue record is used as the issue history file 5
6 (S9).

Next, the organization chart creating unit 60 causes the affiliation file 52 and the employee file 54 updated by the above processing.
From affiliation record 52r and employee record 5 respectively
4r is read and a new organization chart is created (S1
3).

Then, the organization chart is displayed on the screen of the display device 30 (S14). By the above processing, on the screen of the display device 30, in the organization chart shown in FIG.
When "Kyoko Yamamoto" is "moved" from "Human Resources Division" to higher level of "Jiro Takahashi" in "Recruitment Division", the organizational chart display changes as shown in Fig. 3 (b). .

On the other hand, if it is determined that the position designated in step S6 is the "affiliation display" position (S6, YE).
S), the affiliation movement process showing the details of the process in the flowchart of FIG.

Next, the processing of the flowchart of FIG. 18 will be described. First, the organization chart editor 70 first selects the affiliation file 52.
15, the (X coordinate, Y coordinate) closest to the (X coordinate, Y coordinate) of the original position specified in step S4 of the flowchart of FIG. 15 is set in the "X coordinate" and "Y coordinate" items. Affiliation record 52r (corresponding affiliation record 52
r) is searched (S101).

Then, the corresponding affiliation record 52r is read from the affiliation file 52 and stored in the register B1 (S102). Then, the above applicable affiliation record 5
The process of searching for the belonging record 52r at the top of the organization chart tree while tracing the chain of belonging records 52r starting from the belonging code set in the "superordinate belonging code" item of 2r in the belonging department 52
Run against. When the affiliation record 52r at the top of the tree is read from the affiliation file 52, the affiliation code set in the "affiliation code" item of the affiliation record 52r is stored in the register T1 (S10).
3).

Next, the organization chart editor 70 uses the display device 30.
The message "Please specify the destination (destination) of the specified department" is displayed on the screen. In accordance with this message, the user operates a pointing device such as a mouse to specify the destination (destination position) of the designated department on the organization chart displayed on the screen of the display device 30. (S104).

Upon receiving the coordinate information (X coordinate, Y coordinate) of the previous position designated by the user from the CPU 10, the organization chart editing unit 70 stores the (X coordinate, Y coordinate) in the belonging file 52. The "X coordinate" item and the "Y coordinate" item of the belonging record 52r are compared. And the above-mentioned position is above or below the affiliation name of any department on the organization chart,
Alternatively, it is determined whether or not the position corresponds to the right (S10).
5).

[0209] If the position does not correspond to any of the above positions (S105, NO), an "error message" is displayed on the screen and the process returns to step 104 again. On the other hand, the destination specified by the user is above and below the rectangular frame of the belonging name,
Alternatively, if the belonging record 52r corresponding to the right position exists, the belonging record 52r is set to the belonging file 52r.
Is read from and stored in register B2 (S10
6).

Next, the chain of the belonging record 52r is traced in the higher belonging direction from the belonging code set in the "higher belonging" item of the belonging record 52r stored in the register B2 to the belonging file 52. Affiliation record 5 at the top of the stored organization chart tree
Search for 2r. Then, the affiliation code of the affiliation record 52r at the top of the tree is stored in the register T2 (S107).

Then, the belonging record 52r stored in the register B1 is deleted from the belonging file 52 (S
108). As a result, the affiliation record 52r having the "affiliation name" that has been "moved" by the user is deleted from the affiliation file 52.

Next, the belonging record 52r deleted from the above belonging file 52 stored in the register B1.
The (deleted affiliation record 52r) and the affiliation record 52r linked via its "upper affiliation", "coordinate affiliation", and "lower affiliation" items are corrected (S109).

In this modification process, for example, "subordinate affiliation"
If the item includes the belonging record 52r in which the belonging code of the deleted belonging record 52r is set, the "subordinate belonging" item of the belonging record 52r is corrected. In addition, if there is a belonging record 52r in which the belonging code of the deleted belonging record 52r is set in the “co-affiliation” item, the “co-affiliation” item and the “X coordinate” item of the belonging record 52r are set as necessary. Fix it. Furthermore, "upper affiliation"
If the item includes the belonging record 52r to which the belonging code of the deleted belonging record 52r is set, the "upper affiliation" item and the "Y coordinate" item of the belonging record 52r are also corrected. Further, when the subordinate affiliation record 52r is chained to this affiliation record 52r, the "Y coordinate" item is also corrected for those affiliation records 52r.

Next, in step S109,
The "X-coordinate" or "Y-coordinate" item of the employee record 54r of each employee belonging to the department to which the "X-coordinate" or "Y-coordinate" item has been corrected is corrected (S110).

Subsequently, in order to arrange the department corresponding to the belonging record 52r stored in the register B1 at the designated previous position on the organization chart, the belonging record 5
The contents of 2r (such as "upper affiliation", "coordinate affiliation", or "lower affiliation" item) are corrected (S111).

Next, the employee record 54r of each employee belonging to the department corresponding to the belonging record 52r stored in the register B1 is read from the employee file 54, and the "X coordinate" and "Y coordinate" of these employee records 54r are read. Item is corrected, and after correction, these employee records 54r are written in the employee record 54r (S112).

Subsequently, the affiliation record 52r stored in the register B2 and the affiliation record of the department whose position on the organization chart changes with the movement of the department in which the affiliation record 52r is stored in the register B2 The contents of 52r are corrected (S113). In this process, for example, as shown in FIG. 14, the belonging department A designated as the target of the “move” operation is the mouse cursor 411.
Is a process associated with the change of the organizational chart caused by moving to the subordinate of the department B by designating the previous position. FIG.
In the case of 4 (a), the contents (“upper affiliation” item and “Y coordinate” item) of the affiliation record 52r of the department C stored in the register B2 are changed. Also, FIG. 14 (c)
Also in this case, the content of the belonging record 52r of the department C stored in the register B2 (the item of “co-affiliation”) is changed. These correction processes are performed by the corresponding affiliation record 52.
It is executed by reading r from the belonging file 52, and after correction, the corresponding belonging record 52r is written in the employee file 54.

Subsequently, in step S113, the display position (the "X coordinate" and "Y coordinate" items of the belonging record 52r) is displayed.
The employee record 54r belonging to the corrected department is read from the employee file 54, and "X" of the employee record 54r is read.
Correct the "Coordinates" and "Y coordinates" items. And after correction,
The employee record 54r is written in the employee file 54 (S114).

As described above, step S1 in FIG.
The affiliation movement process of 0 is completed, and the personnel structure database 50 corrects the tree structure of the organization chart and the position (display position) of the employee on the organization chart.

Then, the description returns to the flowchart of FIG. 15 again. When the affiliation movement processing of step S10 is completed by the organization chart editing unit 70 as described above, the official announcement processing unit 90 refers to the official announcement type information table 100 shown in FIG. 13 and finds the register T1 obtained in the process. , T
2, and the type of announcement is determined based on the attribute of the operation designated by the user (S11).

As shown in FIG. 13, the types of announcement include “transfer”, “seconded”, and “seconded work”. "Change"
Indicates that the operation attribute is "move" and the change of the top of the tree is from the company to the company (the register T1 and the register T2 store the affiliation code indicating the company's top).
Is the case. In the case of "secondary", the operation attribute is "move" and the change in the top of the tree indicates that the company is → another company (the register T1 is the affiliation code indicating the company's top, and the register T2 is the other company's top). The affiliation code is stored). Furthermore, in the case of "returning to work", the attribute of the operation is "move" and the top of the tree changes. The affiliation code shown is stored).

Next, when the type of issuance is determined as described above, the issuance record 56 of the format shown in FIG. 2 (c) for the employees belonging to the department which is the target of the above operation.
Create r. Then, the announcement record 56r is written in the announcement history file 56 (S12).

Employee record 54r of the employee who belongs to the department
Is the belonging record 52r stored in the register B1.
It can be known based on the employee code set in the "Manager" item and the "Member" item (see FIG. 4).

Subsequently, the above-mentioned steps S13 and S1.
The process of No. 4 is executed, and the organization chart changed by the user's operation is displayed on the screen of the display device 30. Although not shown in the flow chart, when the user inputs a command or the like from the input unit 20 to instruct the printout of the official announcement, the official announcement record 56r written in the official announcement history file 56 is read out, An announcement is output via the printing device 40.

As described above, according to this embodiment,
The organization chart can be easily changed on the screen while using a pointing device such as a mouse. Further, this change can be immediately reflected in the employee file 54 and the affiliation file 52 constituting the personnel database 50. Further, along with the change of the organization chart, an announcement record is automatically created for the employee to be transferred, and this is stored in the announcement history file 56. Then, based on the official announcement record stored in the official announcement history file 56,
It is also possible to print out the official announcement through the printing device 40.

Therefore, the work of organizational change and personnel change can be executed quickly and accurately on the screen.
In addition, in the above-mentioned embodiment, as the operation on the organization chart, "move" and "copy" can be executed.
Other operations such as “Delete” may be added. In addition, the organization chart before the change is not erased, and the organization chart after the change is displayed in a different color so that the change is displayed. You may make it recognizable on a screen.

In the above embodiment, the example of editing the organization chart is taken up, but the present invention is not limited to this.
The relationship between the upper element (superordinate concept) and the subordinate element (subordinate concept) is expressed by the hierarchical structure, such as a software design document in which the relationship between the main routine and the subroutine is expressed by the hierarchical structure. It is applicable to edit processing.

[0228]

As described above, according to the present invention, a hierarchical diagram represented by a tree structure can be corrected on the screen by an easy operation. It is possible to significantly reduce the time and effort of the work, and to perform the work accurately. Further, since the change information generated by the correction of the hierarchy chart is automatically created, the data necessary for issuing the official notice of the personnel change, etc. which occurs when the organization chart is changed can be automatically created. Furthermore, since the change information in the tree structure generated by the correction of the hierarchical diagram is automatically reflected in the storage means such as the database that manages the data structure of the hierarchical diagram,
The management of the data structure becomes easy.
