Information management apparatus, information processing apparatus, and non-transitory computer readable medium

1. An information management apparatus comprising:

a processor configured to

associate components including questions and answers to the questions using parent-child relationships, and control a display of the components as a tree structure,

receive a selection of a subset of components at a first position in the tree structure according to a user operation, and also connect the selected subset of components to a second position of the tree structure while the selected subset of components remain unchanged at the first position in the tree structure, and

change the parent-child relationships of the components according to the connection of the components.

2. The information management apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein

the processor is capable of designating a range for each application applying a created tree structure and components.

3. The information management apparatus according to claim 2 , wherein

the processor manages a plurality of application range maps for designating the range for each application, and

the processor receives a selection of a subset of components in a tree structure of a first application range map among the plurality of application range maps, and connects the selected subset of components to a tree structure tree in a second application range map.

4. The information management apparatus according to claim 3 , wherein

when there is a change in a parent-child relationship between components forming a tree structure from among a tree structure in the first application range map and a tree structure in the second application range map, the processor causes a change of only the parent-child relationship between the components connected between the application range maps to be reflected in the tree structure in the second application range map.

5. The information management apparatus according to claim 3 , wherein

when there is a change in the questions and the answers to the questions in the components forming a tree structure from among a tree structure in the first application range map and a tree structure in the second application range map, the processor causes a similar change to be reflected in the components forming a tree structure in the second application range map.

6. The information management apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein

the processor displays a plurality of tree structures, and

the processor receives a selection of a subset of components in a first tree structure among the plurality of tree structures, and connects the selected subset of components to a second tree structure among the plurality of tree structures.

7. The information management apparatus according to claim 6 , wherein

when there is a change in a parent-child relationship between components forming one of a first tree structure and the second tree structure, the processor causes a similar change to be reflected in the second tree structure.

8. The information management apparatus according to claim 6 , wherein

when there is a change in the questions and the answers to the questions in the components forming one of the first tree structure and the second tree structure, the processor causes a similar change to be reflected in the components forming the second tree structure.

9. The information management apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein

the processor causes questions to be displayed in a tree structure.

10. The information management apparatus according to claim 9 , wherein

the processor causes the tree structure to be displayed together with a table for creating the tree structure.

11. The information management apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein

when the connection is made, the processor also changes the display of the table for creating the tree structure according to the connection.

12. A non-transitory computer readable medium storing a program causing a computer to execute a process for managing information, the process comprising:

associating components including questions and answers to the questions using parent-child relationships, and controlling a display of the components as a tree structure;

receiving a selection of a subset of components at a first position in the tree structure according to a user operation, and also connecting the selected subset of components to a second position of the tree structure while the selected subset of components remain unchanged at the first position in the tree structure; and

changing the parent-child relationships of the components according to the connection.
