Method and apparatus for transmitting data in correspondence to a progress stage of a series of business processings
 Even if undecided portion is contained in the data which is necessary for a series of business processings, necessary data is transmitted to the business processing section which wants to confirm the necessary data without carrying out the destination specifying operation. When inputting data from the business processing section in charge of input, parameters representing the degrees of decision are input together with the data and are stored in a database which is common to the business processing sections, the progress stage of a series of business processings is judged on the basis of a progress stage definition table in which the relation between the input situation of the data items and the parameters, and the progress stages of the series of business processings is defined. The data items which are to be transmitted in the progress stages and the transmission destinations are judged based on a transmission destination definition table in which the relation among the progress stages of the series of business processings, the data items as objects of the transmission and the transmission destinations is defined. The data of interest is fetched from the common database, and is transmitted to a data input/output unit of the business processing section as the transmission destination obtained by the judgement results.
