ABSTRACT:
To provide a predetermined user with a privilege for a delegated application processing without providing the user with the application requester's log-in password. The application requester specifies a form class for identifying a form that requests a delegated application, both starting and ending dates for identifying a term of the requested delegated application together with a proxy applicant user ID that specifies a proxy applicant requested for the delegated application, then registers those items in the electronic form system. The electronic form system then registers those items in a proxy applicant definition table together with the application requester user II). The proxy applicant can thus enter the form submission mode of the application requester. In the form submission mode of the application requester, forms that can be submitted by the proxy applicant are selected according to the information of the form class, the starting date, the ending date, etc. registered beforehand and displayed as a list.

Mitsuo et al, “Electronic Decision System,” Patent Abstracts of Japan, Publication No. 06-231143, Application No. 05-034404 (Aug. 1994). This application is directed to an electronic decision system capable of deciding an application even if a decider is absent for a long period or a short period. A database 1 connected to a host computer stores application data 3, decision waiting data 5, and decision route data 7.
When an operator inputs an ID number and a password from terminal equipment, the computer checks the inputted contents (12), and if the password is valid, retrieves the existence of an application to the computer itself, the application applied to the computer as a substitute, or the application applied to the computer as approval after an allowable prescribed period by using the ID number as key (13). When the application concerned exists, the contents of the application are read out (14) and displayed on a display in the terminal equipment (15). In the case of submitting the application, the operator writes the decision history through a keyboard.
