An approach is provided for classifying and routing received documents. Text documents are received by a document classification service. The document classification service determines a classification types for documents based on a keyword-to-classification mapping. A document classification notification is send to a client device. The client device then confirms the document classification. Once confirmed, the document is sent to one or more destinations based on the classification of the document and a corresponding destination mapped to the classification.

A processing apparatus transmits a request to an external apparatus server for a job on a condition that a predetermined time has elapsed from detection of a predetermined event by a detection unit.

A processing apparatus includes a reception unit configured to receive a job notification transmitted from a server, a control unit configured to store reception information indicating that the job notification is received in a memory, a request unit configured to request, in a case where the reception unit receives the job notification, the server to transmit job information, and an execution unit configured to execute the job using the job information transmitted from the server, in which the request unit requests the job information from the server in a case where the determination unit determines that the reception information is stored.

An information processing apparatus includes a first display controller, a second display controller, an image display controller and a first switching unit. The first display controller performs control such that a first screen is displayed on a display. The first screen is a screen that shows a specified destination and includes a first image for accepting an operation for inputting a character string representing a destination. The second display controller performs control such that a second screen is displayed. The second screen is a screen that shows a specified destination. The image display controller performs control, in response to a predetermined operation performed while the second screen is displayed, such that a second image for accepting an operation for inputting a character string representing a destination is displayed on the display. The first switching unit switches between the first screen and the second screen.

A communication apparatus includes a data sender and a processing record sender. The data sender sequentially sends data to m destinations, where m is an integer of two or greater. The processing record sender sends a processing record concerning the data sent to the first destination through a processing record concerning the data sent to the n-th destination to the n-th destination when the data sender sends the data to the n-th destination, where n is an integer of 1 to m. The processing record sender sends the processing record concerning the data sent to the first destination through a processing record concerning the data sent to the m-th destination to the first through (m−1)-th destinations when the data sender sends the data to the m-th destination.

An image processing apparatus including a transmission function for transmitting an image sets whether to permit use of a destination not previously registered. The image processing apparatus also receives, from an external apparatus, data including at least a destination field. The image processing apparatus sets the transmission destination based on destination information included in the destination field of the received data upon a condition that a setting is set permitting use of a previously un-registered destination and does not set the transmission destination based on the destination information included in the destination field of the received data upon a condition that a setting is set prohibiting use of a previously un-registered destination.

A data processing apparatus includes a processing unit configured to perform a process on print data or setting data of the print data by a processing method targeting print data of a specific description format; a receiving unit configured to receive print data and setting data of the print data of a description format selected by a user; a determination data obtaining unit configured to obtain determination data that indicates whether a printer driver used for inputting the received print data and the setting data is a target printer driver for the process performed by the processing unit; and a process control unit configured to determine whether to perform the process by the processing unit on the received print data or the setting data based on the obtained determination data, and control the processing by the processing unit.

An information processing system including a device connected to an information processing apparatus is provided. The device includes an accepting unit that accepts a request for executing a set of process units defined by definition information with respect to data generated by the device, a first process control unit that controls execution of a part of the process units based on the definition information, and a transmitting unit that transmits to the information processing apparatus an execution result of the process unit controlled by the first process control unit and information indicating the process unit executed at the device. The information processing apparatus includes a receiving unit that receives the execution result and the information indicating the process unit executed at the device, and a second process control unit that controls execution of a process unit that has not been executed at the device based on the definition information.

In order to support a user operation in a system cooperation function using wireless communication, an information processing system includes an image processing apparatus with an image scanning unit and a mobile terminal. The mobile terminal performs wireless communication with the image processing apparatus; identifies a distance from the image processing apparatus based on the wireless communication; displays a screen used to accept a user operation; and controls an image scanning operation by the image scanning unit in cooperation with the image processing apparatus. If the distance is less than a predetermined distance, the mobile terminal displays a first screen that prompts a first scanning method, and if the distance is not less than the predetermined distance, the mobile terminal displays a second screen that prompts a second scanning method different from the first scanning method.

An image processing apparatus reads an image depicted on paper to create image data of the image and saves the image data in a storage; selects an intermediary from among one or more servers based on an e-mail address designated; sends location data indicating a saving location of the image data or the image data to the intermediary in order to provide a terminal with the image data via the intermediary; sends, to the e-mail address, an message including access information for accessing the location data or the image data saved to the intermediary; and sends, when the intermediary is accessed by the terminal based on the access information and requests the image data, and further, when data corresponding to the access information is the location data, the image data to the requesting server.
