Patent ID: 7970780

Claim:
A job log management system configured to manage a job log in a database, generated according to processing of a job by a device, the job log management system comprising: a search unit configured, when a user designates a search condition for searching for the job log whose content is desired to be changed and issues a change request of the job log, to search the database for a job log that satisfies the search condition; a second acquisition unit configured to acquire a scheduled date and time for acquiring a subsequent job log with respect to one or more devices managed by the job log management system; a re-search unit configured, if the job log that satisfies the search condition is not extracted by the search unit, to wait until the database managing the job log is updated and then perform a re-search for the job log that satisfies the search condition without receiving an instruction for re-searching for the job log from the user; a changing unit configured, when the job log that satisfies the search condition is extracted by the re-search unit, to change a content of the job log according to the change request issued by the user; and a notification unit configured to send notification information about a result of the change performed by the changing unit, wherein the search unit, when the user designates the search condition for searching for the job log whose content is desired to be changed and the content of the change to the job log and issues the job log change request, searches the database for the job log that satisfies the search condition, wherein the changing unit, when the job log that satisfies the search condition is extracted, changes the content of the job log according to the designated content of the change, wherein the re-search unit waits until the scheduled date and time acquired by the second acquisition unit elapses, wherein the search unit, the second acquisition unit, the re-search unit, the changing unit, and the notification unit are implemented using one or more processors.
