  • Publication number: 20170289342
    Abstract: This invention is directed to a business support system that controls business use of a communication device based on a work time without user's awareness. The business support system includes a work time register that registers a work time, and a business use controller that, in reference to the work time register, starts business use of a communication device by a business application for supporting the business use of the communication device when a current time falls within the work time, and stops the business use of the communication device by the business application when the current time falls outside the work time. For example, the business use controller starts the business use of the communication device by the business application by activating a predetermined program in the communication device, and stops the business use of the communication device by the business application by stopping the predetermined program in the communication device.
