Abstract

Provided is a non-transitory computer readable medium storing an access rights update program causing a computer to be executed as: an acquisition unit that acquires access rights update information, which includes information specifying an object of personnel changes, a type of personnel changes, a changed organization, a delegate of access rights for a storage unit that stores a document, and an effective period of the access rights, before the personnel changes; a search unit that searches for the storage unit, for which access rights information including the effective period of the access rights is set and which needs to be updated, on the basis of the acquired access rights update information; and an update unit that updates the access rights information, which is set for the searched storage unit, before the personnel changes on the basis of the acquired access rights update information.

Claims (24)

1. A non-transitory computer readable medium storing an access rights update program causing a computer to be executed as:

an acquisition unit that acquires access rights update information, wherein the access rights update information includes information specifying an object of personnel changes, a type of personnel changes, a changed organization, a delegatee of access rights for a storage unit that stores a document, and an effective period of the access rights, before the personnel changes;

a search unit that searches for the storage unit, for which access rights information including the effective period of the access rights is set and which needs to be updated based on the status of the personnel changes, on the basis of the access rights update information acquired by the acquisition unit; and

an update unit that updates the access rights information, which is set for the storage unit searched for by the search unit, before the personnel changes on the basis of the access rights update information acquired by the acquisition unit.

2. The non-transitory computer readable medium according to claim 1 ,

wherein the storage unit includes a plurality of storage units with a hierarchical structure, and

the access rights information is set with the content corresponding to each storage unit, for each of the plurality of storage units.

3. The non-transitory computer readable medium according to claim 2 ,

wherein when there is no user capable of accessing the storage unit after the effective period of access rights, the update unit sets access rights, which are set for the parent storage unit of the storage unit, for the storage unit.

4. The non-transitory computer readable medium according to claim 1 ,

wherein when personnel change information is received and a work transfer department is included in the personnel change information, the acquisition unit generates the access rights update information with the work transfer department as the delegatee of the access rights.

5. The non-transitory computer readable medium according to claim 2 ,

wherein when personnel change information is received and a work transfer department is included in the personnel change information, the acquisition unit generates the access rights update information with the work transfer department as the delegatee of the access rights.

6. The non-transitory computer readable medium according to claim 3 ,

wherein when personnel change information is received and a work transfer department is included in the personnel change information, the acquisition unit generates the access rights update information with the work transfer department as the delegatee of the access rights.

a search unit that searches for the storage unit, for which access rights information including the effective period of the access rights is set and which needs to be updated based on the status of the personnel changes, on the basis of the access rights update information acquired by the acquisition unit;

an update unit that updates the access rights information, which is set for the storage unit searched for by the search unit, before the personnel changes on the basis of the access rights update information acquired by the acquisition unit; and

a document management unit that controls access from a user on the basis of the access rights information set for the storage unit.

8. An access rights update method comprising:

acquiring access rights update information, wherein the access rights update information includes information specifying an object of personnel changes, a type of personnel changes, a changed organization, a delegatee of access rights for a storage unit that stores a document, and an effective period of the access rights, before the personnel changes;

searching for the storage unit, for which access rights information including the effective period of the access rights is set and which needs to be updated based on the status of the personnel changes, on the basis of the acquired access rights update information; and
