Best Mode for Carrying Out the Invention

[39] The present invention will now be described in detail in connection with a preferred embodiment with reference to the accompanying drawings. FIG. 1 shows a schematic configuration of a hardware network for a method of managing enterprise integration information in accordance with an embodiment of the present invention. As shown in FIG. 1, an enterprise computer 200, an advisory board member computer 300, a member computer 400 and a software developer computer 500 are interconnected on the basis of a server apparatus 100 connecting to the Internet.

[40] The server apparatus 100 is embedded with a WWW server enabling a homepage, having a specific URL, to be operated and also embedded with a database server, an e- mail server, etc. Further, the server apparatus 100 has an Application Service Provider (ASP) (on-line program lease service), i.e., software installed therein. Further, the server apparatus 100 has an ERP solution installed therein.

[41] The enterprise computer 200 can become a PC of small and medium enterprises, which requires integrated information management. Through this enterprise computer 200, an enterprise's production information (production target, an output, inventories, etc.), sales information (daily volume of sales, the accumulated volume of sales, etc.), information of tax affairs (tax account, processing costs, the corporation tax, the Grade A earned income tax, a local tax, a value-added tax, etc.), information of financial affairs, business information (the number of retail stores, selling information, etc.), management information, information of personal affairs (a chief director level, the chief of a department level, a section chief level, temporary workers, etc.), salary information (a salary grade, a salary system, an allowance, a bonus, retirement grants, etc.), and insurance information (a national pension, medical insurance, industrial disaster insurance, etc) are input. The above information can be sufficiently input through a predetermined form of a window (not shown). The input information is transmitted to the server apparatus 100 over the Internet and stored in a database (not shown) of the server apparatus 100. The enterprise computer 200 can be installed in each enterprise or can be installed in plural numbers in each post of each enterprise. Furthermore, when there are several persons in charge within an enterprise, an ID and a security grade can be assigned to each person so that a business task can be performed only within a permitted range.

[42] The advisory board member computer 300 is a computer to which experts, such as an accountant, a licensed tax accountant, a certified labor affairs consultant, a lawyer, and a business consultant can gain access. For example, an accounting management program or a tax affairs management program is installed in the advisory board member computer 300 to which an accountant or a licensed tax accountant gains access. Accordingly, the advisory board member computer 300 receives previously designated information (for example, information of tax affairs and accounts) from the server apparatus 100 and automatically inputs the received information to the accounting management program or the tax affairs management program, thus creating desired results (bookkeeping, account book bookkeeping, amount settlement, etc.). At this time, an accountant or a licensed tax accountant can monitor the execution process of the program and may further input consultation contents, if appropriate, or modify numerical values, and so on. Although tax affairs and accounts have been described as an example, the consultation data may include an enterprise's credit rating data, operation consultation data, insurance management data and the like. The generated data of the advisory board member computer 300 is sent to the server apparatus 100 and stored therein.

[43] In particular, in the event of credit rating data, a credit rating, an investment grade, and a future value grade of a corresponding enterprise are automatically determined (for example, AAA rating, AAb rating, etc.) based on criteria, which have been previously input and designated by financial experts, operation experts, etc. The determined enterprise evaluation data is provided to not only the CEO of an enterprise, but investors, etc., who access the member computer 400 and thus utilized as financial information.

[44] The member computer 400 is a personal computer to which a member (for example, a person in charge or a CEO) who belongs to an enterprise, or a third party subscribes as a member and gains access. After subscribing to the server apparatus 100 as a member and downloading and installing ActiveX, the member computer 400 can display specific information or data downloaded from the server apparatus 100. A member pays a fee, such as a monthly fee and an added information use fee in order to use the member computer 400.

[45] In particular, the member computer 400 assigns security grades according to a member's identity (for example, a person, an enterprise associated persons, investors, public service personnel, people who work in the media, etc.). The security grades are classified into a plurality of levels, and an authority to access information or data stored in the server apparatus 100 is limited according to the level. The reason why the security grades are assigned as described above is to prevent an enterprise's business information, secret, etc., from being leaked to the outside. [46] The software developer computer 500 is connected to the server apparatus 100 and functions to develop, install and maintain various ASP programs executed in the server apparatus 100. Furthermore, the software developer computer 500 may operate a call center, if needed. [47] The certification institute server 600 is a computer for electronic authentication when being issued civil affair documents such as a certificate of financial statements or an audit report. The certification institute server 600 connects to the server apparatus 100 over a network. [48] FIG. 2 is a configuration showing an example of enterprise information processed on the basis of the server apparatus 100 shown in FIG. 1. As shown in FIG. 2, the server apparatus 100 is equipped with information units that manage various pieces of information. [49] For example, a personal affairs and salary management information unit 110 is a database to which information about the class of one's position, a salary grade, seniority, a salary, etc., of employees who works for an enterprise has been input. [50] An accounting management information unit 120 is a database to which information about funds, tax, salary, expenses, accrued revenue, selling, etc., of an enterprise has been input. [51] A sales management information unit 130 is a database to which information about sales time, sales areas, a sales volume, inventories, the volume of circulation, etc., of an enterprise product has been input. [52] A cost management information unit 140 is a database to which information about the prime cost, a production cost, a factory price, a selling price, a margin, personal expenses, etc., of each product has been input. [53] A materials management information unit 190 is a database to which information about a purchase price, a purchase volume, a purchase time, the volume of inventories, quality, and so on of each product has been input. [54] A trade management information unit 180 is a database to which information about the import or export of products has been input. [55] A production management information unit 170 is a database to which information about a factory or line-based output, a defective proportion, production manpower, a production time, etc., of a product has been input. [56] A management information management information unit 160 is a database to which information about an enterprise's external operation, production, sales, an actual yield, an operation target, enterprise evaluation, partner firms, etc., has been input. [57] A reference information management information unit 150 is a database to which in- formation about an enterprise s basic information (for example, a factory location, a factory area, a production capability, a history, etc.) has been input.

[58] FIG. 3 is a flowchart showing a process of allowing the advisory board member computer 300 to generate consultation data in accordance with an embodiment of the present invention. Referring to FIG. 3, various pieces of enterprise information is first input through the enterprise computer 200. The input information is input to the server apparatus 100. The server apparatus 100 informs the advisory board member computer 300 that there is input or change of data. In response thereto, the advisory board member computer 300 receives the information from the server apparatus 100 and generates consultation data. In this case, the server apparatus 100 classifies the enterprise information according to previously designated classes and transmits the information to the corresponding advisory board member computer 300. For example, since a tax affairs management program is installed in the advisory board member computer 300 to which a licensed tax accountant gains access, pieces of information necessary to execute the tax affairs management program are transmitted to the corresponding advisory board member computer 300. Furthermore, since an accounting management program is installed in the advisory board member computer 300 to which an accountant gains access, pieces of information necessary to execute the accounting management program are transmitted to the corresponding advisory board member computer 300.

[59] Accordingly, as shown in FIG. 3, processes, including management environment analysis and diagnosis (S200), internal environment analysis and diagnosis (S210), financial environment analysis and diagnosis (S220), production environment analysis and diagnosis (S230), business environment analysis and diagnosis (S240), management environment analysis and diagnosis (S250), and business operator analysis and diagnosis (S250) can be performed sequentially within one advisory board member computer 300 or can be performed in parallel in several advisory board member computers 300 and then collected by the server apparatus 100. To this end, a program capable of performing corresponding analysis and diagnosis is installed in each advisory board member computer 300.

[60] Hereinafter, a method of managing enterprise integration information is described in detail. First, several companies input their enterprise information through their own enterprise computers 200 and transmit the enterprise information to the server apparatus 100 over the Internet. This input process is the whole process that has to be processed by an enterprise.

[61] Next, the server apparatus 100 classifies the input information according to the classification of committee members and transmits it to the advisory board member computer 300. The advisory board member computer 300 generates consultation data using a program embedded therein based on the received information. At this time, the committee members can supervise the generated consultation data, input consultation opinions or modify the consultation data (for example, an increase of a management target, etc.), if needed. The generated consultation data is first transmitted to the server apparatus 100 and stored therein.

[62] Thereafter, when there is a request from the enterprise computer 200 or the member computer 400 connected to the server apparatus 100, the server apparatus 100 transmits the generated consultation data to a corresponding computer according to a security grade and displays the consultation data on the computer. This process is performed in real-time, so that members and companies can easily understand necessary integrated information at an appropriate time. Further, management diagnosis data can be generated and provided periodically.

[63] A recording medium according to the present invention can be read by a computer and have a series of command recorded thereon. An example of this recording medium can include a floppy disk, a hard disk, a magnetic reel tape, an optical disk (including CD, DVD, blue-ray disk, etc.), a semiconductor memory (including RAM, ROM, EEPROM, USB memory, CF memory, SD memory, etc.) or the like. However, it should be construed that the recording medium of the present invention is not limited to the above media, but any medium may be used as long as it can have electronic data recorded thereon and can maintain and read the data. Industrial Applicability

[64] The present invention relates to an enterprise information management method, and more particularly, to a method of managing enterprise integration information, which can manage various pieces of enterprise information professionally and integrally using the Internet and offer the enterprise information to members in real-time.
