WORKFLOW GENERATION SUPPORTING APPARATUS

摘要

A workflow generation supporting apparatus includes a unit extracting difference information between old and new work rules documents; a unit obtaining association information between configuration information of the old work rules document and steps of a workflow of the old work rules document; and a supporting unit supporting generation of a workflow of the new work rules document by presenting a step to be changed in the workflow of the old work rules document based on the difference information and the association information. When the difference information includes an added configuration, the supporting unit compares the layers in terms of the logical configuration of the added configuration and an immediately previous step, and, when the layer of the added configuration is lower than the layer of the immediately previous step, presents the immediately previous step as a step to be changed in the workflow of the old work rules document.

1. A workflow generation supporting apparatus comprising:
an extracting unit that extracts difference information between an old work rules document and a new work rules document; an obtaining unit that obtains association information between configuration information of the old work rules document and steps of a workflow of the old work rules document; and a supporting unit that supports generation of a workflow of the new work rules document by presenting a step to be changed in the workflow of the old work rules document on the basis of the difference information and the association information, wherein, when the difference information includes a configuration newly added in the new work rules document, the supporting unit compares the layer in terms of the logical configuration of the added configuration with the layer in terms of the logical configuration of a step immediately prior to the added configuration, and, when the layer in terms of the logical configuration of the added configuration is lower than the layer in terms of the logical configuration of the immediately previous step, the supporting unit presents the immediately previous step as a step to be changed in the workflow of the old work rules document.
