Work flow system for deciding whether to execute the work flow based on function restriction information

摘要

An image processing apparatus capable of executing a work flow according to setting information indicating a processing content for combining a plurality of functions and executing the functions as a series of processings, includes: an obtaining unit configured to obtain function restriction information indicating a function whose execution is restricted among a plurality of functions provided to the image processing apparatus; a function identification unit configured to identify a function executed by the image processing apparatus and a function executed by the other apparatus on the basis of the setting information; and a decision unit configured to decide whether execution of the work flow based on the setting information is restricted on the basis of the function restriction information and the function executed by the image processing apparatus and the function executed by the other apparatus identified by the function identification unit.
