A mobile terminal management server for providing various kinds of data to a mobile terminal used by a user via a communication network in response to a request from the mobile terminal, the mobile terminal management server being a server in which ERP runs, the mobile terminal management server comprising:

a report data storage section for storing report data generated for each business unit in a business process;

a search condition designation screen providing section that provides a search condition designation screen used to designate a search condition in response to the request from the mobile terminal;

a search condition receiving section that receives a search condition designated through the search condition designation screen from the mobile terminal;

a report data searching section that searches for report data satisfying the search condition received by the search condition receiving section by referring to the report data storage section; and

a search result providing section that provides search result data to the mobile terminal as a search result, the search result data representing the report data searched by the report data searching section,

wherein a selection item arrangement circle display region is provided on the search condition designation screen to display a selection item arrangement circle in which a plurality of selection items selectable to designate a search condition are arranged substantially on a circumference thereof.

2. The mobile terminal management server according to claim 1, wherein a selection item rotation rendering setup is made in the selection item arrangement circle display region so that selection item rotation rendering in which the plurality of selection items are rotationally moved on the circumference of the selection item arrangement circle is carried out in accordance with a predetermined rotation instruction operation of the mobile terminal by the user.

3. The mobile terminal management server according to claim 1, wherein a plurality of selection item arrangement circle display regions are provided on the search condition designation screen.

4. The mobile terminal management server according to claim 3, wherein the plurality of selection item arrangement circle display regions are set up so that a part of the selection item arrangement circle display regions is partially superimposed, and the selection items arranged on the selection item arrangement circle displayed in each of the selection item arrangement circle display regions are configured to have a display form different from that of any other selection item arrangement circle.

5. The mobile terminal management server according to claim 3, wherein the plurality of selection item arrangement circle display regions are provided on the search condition designation screen for every predetermined class,

wherein selection items arranged substantially on a circumference of a first selection item arrangement circle displayed in a first selection item arrangement circle display region are report type selection items used to designate one or more report type as a search condition,

wherein selection items arranged substantially on a circumference of a second selection item arrangement circle displayed in a second selection item arrangement circle display region are detailed condition selection items used to designate one or more detailed condition among detailed conditions including at least one of a date, a customer, and an organization as a search condition,

wherein the search condition receiving section receives the search condition including the report type designated through the search condition designation screen and at least one of the detailed conditions from the mobile terminal, and
