Abstract:
1. An information processing apparatus which executes a series of processing including a plurality of processes, comprising: a first storage unit configured to store attribute information of image data necessary for each of the series of processing as an execution condition of the series of processing; a second storage unit configured to store corresponding information between the execution condition of the series of processing and the series of processing; an image data acquisition unit configured to acquire image data; a first search unit configured to search an execution condition of the series of processing in the first storage unit based on the acquired image data and acquire the execution condition of the series of processing which corresponds to the attribute information of the image data; a second search unit configured to search the corresponding information in the second storage unit based on the execution condition of the series of processing acquired by the first search unit and acquire the series of processing which corresponds to the execution condition of the series of processing; a display unit configured to display information indicative of the series of processing acquired by the second search unit; and a business form recognition unit configured to execute business form recognition processing with respect to the image data acquired by the image data acquisition unit and acquire business form information as to a business form of the image data; wherein the attribute information of the image data includes business form information as to the business form of the image data; and wherein the first search unit acquires an execution condition of the series of processing, which corresponds to the business form information acquired by the business form recognition unit, among the execution conditions of the series of processing in the first storage unit, wherein the attribute information of the image data includes a resolution of the image data and business form information for every page which corresponds to the image data; and wherein the first search unit acquires an execution condition of the series of processing which matches the business form information acquired by the business form recognition unit based on the business form information acquired by the business form recognition unit, the resolution included in the attribute information of the image data and the business form information for every page included in the attribute information, wherein the first search unit determines whether the business form information acquired by the business form recognition unit completely matches, partially matches or does not match the execution condition of the series of processing; and wherein the display unit displays the information indicating the series of processing acquired by the second search unit in a display form according to the determination result as to the series of processing by the first search unit.
