Here, the state adapter 760 and the other pattern analyzing unit / adapter 770 graphically display the processing state of the business process or the processing state of the web process in the form of graphs and charts through the web browser 762, .

Hereinafter, a method for designing a business process using the integrated application providing system according to the present invention will be described in detail.

The integrated application provision system according to the present invention provides a business process design program, as shown in FIG.

For example, if the business process consists of two separate business processes for transferring specific items from the first DB server to the second DB server and for transferring specific items from the first DB server to the third DB server, , The business process can be designed using the branch function command.

Here, the branching function command unifies the individual business processes constituted by a plurality of branching functions and sets a sequence of a plurality of individual business processes.

At this time, the individual business process refers to a process of transmitting data from one extraction target server to one transmission target server.

First, the user drags an icon corresponding to the first DB server among the icons arranged on the left side, places it on the business process design screen, drags an icon for the branch function command and places the icon on the right side of the icon corresponding to the first DB server And icons for the second DB server and the third DB server are respectively dragged and arranged on the right side of the icon for the branch function command.

After arranging all of the icons for the extraction target server and the transmission target server, the user sets a task processing order for the individual business processes.

At this time, the setting of the task processing order can be set by the UI arrangement order of the provided flow leader.

Then, the user sets an argument item, which is data to be extracted from the first DB server, which is the extraction target server, and a transmission item, which is the data to be received by the second DB server and the third DB server, which are transmission target servers.

Then, the user can complete the business process design by pressing the save button when the business process design is completed.

Hereinafter, a method of providing an argument item and a segment item will be described in detail.

First, as shown in FIG. 4A, the management module 200 provides a list of the argument items to be extracted from the extraction target server, and can receive selection items from the user.

At this time, the management module 200 selects a designed business process similar to the design target business process, reads the acceptance item of the extraction target server included in the designed business process, and, as shown in FIG. 4B, And the list of the argument items of the extraction target server can be provided.

On the other hand, referring to FIG. 5, the method of providing an acceptance item of the management module according to the present invention starts with the management module 200 selecting and receiving an extraction target server (S210).

In step S220, the management module 200 determines whether a task process for the extracted target server is established.

If it is determined in operation 220 that the data extraction branch function command and the transmission destination server are not input and only the extraction target server is input, the management module 200 determines that the basic argument items (S230).

If it is determined in operation 220 that the data extraction branching function command of the extraction target server and the transmission destination server are input together and a business process is established, the management module 200 determines whether the design process The degree of similarity is calculated (S240).

At this time, the degree of similarity between the design target business process and the designed business process may be determined according to the configuration similarity of the transmission target server.

This is because even if the server for extracting data is the same and the server for extracting data is different from the server for extracting data, the final goal of designing the business process is to transmit data of a specific item to the transmission destination server This is because the target data is similar when the receiving server is the same.

Thereafter, the management module 200 selects a similar business process according to the calculated similarity (S250).

Then, the management module 200 reads an argument item of the extraction target server included in the selected similar task process (S260), rearranges the read argument items to an upper level to generate a list of argument items (S270) A list of the rearranged argument items is provided (S280).

In this way, it is possible to provide convenience to the user by allowing the user to select the acceptance item by providing the acceptance item for the designed business process similar to the design process, have.

Meanwhile, as shown in FIG. 6, the management module 200 may provide a selection target list to be received by the transmission destination server, and may select and input a transmission item.

Here, since the transfer destination server can receive only the data read from the extraction target server by the adapter, the selection target list is preferably composed of the argument items of the extraction target server.

Hereinafter, a business process processing method of the business process analysis engine according to the present invention will be described in detail with reference to FIG.

FIG. 7 is a flowchart illustrating a business process processing method of a business process analysis processing engine according to the present invention.

As shown in FIG. 7, the business process processing method of the business process analysis engine according to the present invention starts with the business process analysis processing engine 420 determining the extraction target server (S110).

Thereafter, the business process analysis processing engine 420 accesses the server 600 corresponding to the extraction target server through the adapter 500 (S120).

Then, the business process analysis processing engine 420 reads data corresponding to the argument item from the server 600 corresponding to the extraction target server (S130), edits the data according to the transmission item of the predetermined transmission destination server (S140), and transmits the edited data to the transmission destination server (S150).

For example, as shown in FIG. 8A, the business process analysis engine 420 processes individual business processes in the order determined by the branch function command when there are a plurality of individual business processes in the business process.

At this time, the business process analysis processing engine 420 may process the individual business process in the next processing sequence after confirming completion of transmission data reception from the transmission destination server at the time of processing individual business processes.

For example, when the extraction target server is the FTP server and the transmission destination server is the first DB server, the second DB server, and the third 3DB server, the business process analysis processing engine 420 transmits, to the FTP server through the adapter 500 And edits the read data in accordance with a transmission item of the first DB server as the transmission destination server and transmits the edited data to the first DB server through the adapter 500 .

The business process analysis processing engine 420 receives a transmission data reception completion message from the first DB server and confirms whether the first DB server has received data.

Then, the business process analysis processing engine 420 edits the data read according to the argument item of the FTP server according to the transmission item of the second DB server and transmits the edited data to the second DB server, Upon receipt of the reception complete message, the second DB server confirms whether or not data is received.

The business process analysis processing engine 420 edits the data read according to the argument item of the FTP server according to the transmission item of the 3DB server and transmits the edited data to the 3DB server.

At this time, if it is assumed that a transmission data reception complete message is not received from the third 3DB server, it is determined that the data transmission error is a data transmission error and the data transmitted to the first and second DB servers are deleted or data transmission is canceled, And transmits an error message indicating that an error has occurred in the data transmitted to the first DB server and the second DB server.

This makes it possible to ensure the reliability of the business process by eliminating the individual business processes that are missing.

That is, the business process according to the present invention is used to organically perform and share work and information linked in and out of an enterprise. In the case where data transfer or instruction to a specific business is omitted, Or to prevent information from being transmitted independently.

Accordingly, when any one individual business process can not be completed, it is possible to exhibit an effect of being held for performing another business process associated with the one business process.

8B, when the extraction target server is the first FTP server and the transmission destination server is the second FTP server, the second DB server and the mail server, the business process analysis processing engine 420 receives the branch function command Process individual business processes in the order determined by them.

First, the business process analysis processing engine 420 accesses the first FTP server through the adapter 500 and reads data according to an argument item of the first FTP server. In accordance with the read data, And reads detailed information corresponding to the read data.

The business process analysis processing engine 420 edits the detailed information read according to the transmission item of the second FTP server and transmits the edited detailed information to the second FTP server through the adapter 500.

Thereafter, the business process analysis processing engine 420 edits the data read from the first FTP server according to the transmission item of the second DB server, and transmits the edited data to the second DB server via the adapter 500 do.

The business process analysis processing engine 420 edits the detailed information read from the first DB server according to a transmission item of the mail server and transmits the edited data to the mail server through the adapter 500.

At this time, if there is a data transmission error to the mail server, the data transmitted to the second FTP server and the second DB server is deleted, or the additional error indicating that an error occurs in the data transmitted to the second FTP server and the second DB server Message.

Accordingly, the data set according to the designed business process is extracted from the extraction target server and transmitted to the transmission target server, so that the business process can be automatically performed without inputting the user.

It will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes and modifications may be made without departing from the scope of the invention as defined in the appended claims. It is self-evident.
