An information processing system includes a processor configured to: obtain a feature of a target document which is a document to be processed; and obtain information on a process performed by the information processing system on a past document which is a document that has the obtained feature and that has been processed in past in the information processing system.

An information processing apparatus includes a processor programmed to execute a process. The process includes obtaining, from apparatus management information associating identifiers of other information processing apparatuses with resources of services being used by the other information processing apparatuses, one or more of the identifiers of the other information processing apparatuses associated with resources of a service available to a user, displaying the obtained one or more of the identifiers of the other information processing apparatuses on a display device as remote connection destinations in association with the resources of the service available to the user such that the resources of the service available to the user are selectable, and performing remote sharing with one or more of the other information processing apparatuses whose identifiers are associated with a resource selected on the display device from the resources of the service available to the user.

An information processing apparatus, an information processing system, and an information processing method. The information processing apparatus executes a predetermined workflow including a component whose usage history is to be counted, transmits to a user terminal through a communication network, count target contract input screen information for displaying a count target contract input screen on a display of the user terminal, the count target contract input screen associating a predetermined count target contract with the predetermined workflow, in response to an operation on the count target contract input screen displayed on the display of the user terminal based on the count target contract input screen information, associates the predetermined workflow with predetermined count target contract information indicating the predetermined count target contract, and in response to an execution of the predetermined workflow, counts the usage history of the component included in the predetermined workflow in association with the predetermined count target contract.

A communication device including: a transmission file setter which sets an upper limit value of a capacity of a file transmittable by e-mail; a transmission page setter which sets a page count of a transmission file; a communicator which divides, when the transmission file including multiple pages exceeds the upper limit value, the transmission file into multiple divided transmission files, and transmits the divided transmission files; a transmission setter which receives a combining configuration file for combining the divided transmission files, and the setting of a combining tool; and a controller which controls the transmission file setter, the transmission page setter, and the communicator. When the communicator transmits the plurality of divided transmission files, the controller causes the communicator to also transmit the combining configuration file and the combining tool for creating a file of the page count, in accordance with the setting of the transmission setter.

A multifunction peripheral stores normal user information for executing user authentication in and an auxiliary storage. The multifunction peripheral has a quick login mode for simple authentication. When registering a new user in the quick login mode, the CPU determines whether a login name in the normal user information of an existing user matches a login name of the new user. When the two login names match, the user is allowed to select whether to associate the new user with the existing user. When selected to associate the new user with the existing user, the quick user information of the new user including the first management information and the second management information is generated using at least user ID in the normal user information of the existing user, the first management information is stored in the auxiliary storage, and the second management information is stored in a main storage.

According to an aspect of the present invention, an information processing apparatus comprises receiving a selection of a channel for a destination of a document image, obtaining information of users belonging to the channel for the destination from an information sharing service, displaying a button for each of the obtained information of users on a screen, and if the button is pressed, displaying a message including a user corresponding to the pressed button as a recipient in an input field of the screen, and transmitting the message inputted on the screen and the document image to the channel of the information sharing service.

An information processing apparatus, an information processing system, and an information processing method. The information processing apparatus executes a predetermined workflow including a component whose usage history is to be counted, transmits to a user terminal through a communication network, count target contract input screen information for displaying a count target contract input screen on a display of the user terminal, the count target contract input screen associating a predetermined count target contract with the predetermined workflow, in response to an operation on the count target contract input screen displayed on the display of the user terminal based on the count target contract input screen information, associates the predetermined workflow with predetermined count target contract information indicating the predetermined count target contract, and in response to an execution of the predetermined workflow, counts the usage history of the component included in the predetermined workflow in association with the predetermined count target contract.

An image processing system that is capable of retrying transmission of image data without limiting execution of other jobs in an image processing apparatus. An instruction to execute a job which reads an original, generates image data of the original, and sends the image data to a user-specified destination, is received from a user. An information processing apparatus generates a command for executing the job and sends the command to the image processing apparatus. The image processing apparatus executes the job based on the command. When sending of the image data to the user-specified destination is unsuccessful, the image processing apparatus sends the image data to the information processing apparatus. In accordance with an instruction received from the user, the information processing apparatus sends the image data to the user-specified destination.

A user personal computer (PC) serves as a transmission device for transmitting data to a terminal device. The user PC includes a user PC communicator, an inputter configured to receive an input of a selection instruction for selecting data to be transmitted by the user PC communicator and an input of a transmission instruction for transmitting data, and a transmission controller configured to control the user PC communicator to transmit data selected by an input received by the inputter and a notification regarding the selected data. The data and the notification regarding the data are transmitted through different communication paths to the terminal device.
