Is retrieved as a user ID of a node corresponding to a person who has the authorization authority (here, the fifth record), and the employee's user ID as the person having the authorization authority stored in the record (Here, “Mori”) is extracted (step S205). At this time, if there are a plurality of records storing the user ID extracted in step S204, a record effective on the system date is selected. Thereby, it is possible to determine an employee (in this case, an employee with the user ID “Mori” and the name “Yuji Mori”) who should first perform approval or rejection processing on the application data (see FIG. 3). The approval route determination processing unit 27 outputs this user ID to the approval / rejection processing unit 28.
[0030]
Next, the approval / rejection processing unit 28 uses a client terminal (here, “Yuji Mori”) having the user ID (here, “Mori”) extracted in step S205. The contents of the application data are displayed on the client terminal 12 (step S206).
Then, the approval / rejection processing unit 28 responds to an instruction from the employee (here, “Yuji Mori”) having the user ID extracted in step S205 (here, the employee “Yuji Mori”) An instruction to approve is input), and the value of one approval column (here, the first approval column) among the plurality of approval columns in the application data is rewritten (step S207). FIG. 10 is a diagram showing application data after rewriting.
[0031]
Next, the approval route determination processing unit 27 checks whether or not all approvals are completed. If it is determined that all approvals are completed, the process is terminated. If not, The process returns to step S203 (step S208).
[0032]
FIG. 11 is a flowchart showing an outline of the approval route creation / update process of the server 1. Hereinafter, the approval route creation / update process of the server 1 will be described with reference to FIG.
The approval route creation / update processing unit 29 adds, deletes, or changes an employee as an authorized person from an employee who is using a client terminal (here, the client terminal 13). For this purpose, the approver table recorded in the approver table recording unit 23 or the organization table recorded in the organization table recording unit 24 is created or updated (step S301).
[0033]
