A slip image obtaining unit obtains image information on a slip on which character information has been entered. A character recognizing unit recognizes characters entered on the slip on the basis of the image information obtained by the slip image obtaining unit. A determining unit determines whether assistance by an assistant is necessary in an inputting process with the slip according to whether a result of recognition by said character recognizing unit satisfies a predetermined determination condition. An assistance requesting unit requests assistance by the assistant when the determining unit determines that assistance by the assistant is necessary. Whereby, a load on the assistant can be diminished. |
