Data use status tracking system, manager device, agent device, data use status tracking method, and storage medium

A manager device comprising:

• a manager-side process history storing unit;
• a manager-side processing unit that processes said data received from a terminal device that generates and transmits data and registers a process history including the process details of the data in said manager-side process history storing unit;
• and
• a manager-side referring unit that receives a process history reference request designating a part or all of said process histories registered in said manager-side process history storing unit from said terminal device and transmits, as a response, out of counting results obtained by counting said process histories designated by said received process history reference request with respect to a plurality of counting items, said counting result related to said counting item according to the type of the terminal device to the terminal device.

An agent device connected so as to be able to perform communication with a manager device including:

• a manager-side process history storing unit;
• a manager-side processing unit that processes said data received from a terminal device that generates and transmits data and registers a process history including the process details of the data in said manager-side process history storing unit;
• and
• a manager-side referring unit that receives a process history reference request designating a part or all of said process histories to registered in said manager-side process history storing unit from said terminal device and transmits, as a response, out of counting results obtained by counting said process histories designated by said received process history reference request with respect to a plurality of counting items, said counting result related to said counting item according to the type of the terminal device to the terminal device, and
• said agent device including:
• an agent-side process history storing unit;
• an agent-side processing unit that processes said data received from said manager device and registers a process history including the process details on the data in said agent-side process history storing unit;
• and
• a process history transmitting unit that transmits a part or all of said process histories registered in said agent-side process history storing unit to said manager device.

A storage medium which can be read by a computer connected so as to be able to communicate with a manager device comprising:

• a manager-side process history storing unit;
• a manager-side processing unit that processes data received from a terminal device that generates and transmits said data and registers a process history including the process details of the data in said manager-side process history storing unit;
• and a manager-side referring unit that receives a process history reference request designating a part or all of said process histories registered in said manager-side process history storing unit from said terminal device and transmits, as a response, out of counting results obtained by counting said process histories designated by said process history reference request with respect to a plurality of counting items, said counting result related to said counting item according to the type of the terminal device to the terminal device, the storage medium storing a program that makes said computer execute:
• an agent-side process of processing said data received from said manager device and registering a process history including the process details of the data in said agent-side process history storing unit;
• and
• a process history transmitting process of transmitting a part or all of said process histories registered in said agent-side process history storing unit to said manager device.
