Abstract

An information processing apparatus includes a collecting unit that collects data from communication equipment; a transmission unit that transmits the data to an external apparatus; an execution unit that executes a function of the information processing apparatus; an association unit that associates the function with the collected data; and a control unit that controls the transmission unit so as to transmit the data associated with the executed function to the external apparatus.

Claims (29)

1. An information processing apparatus comprising a processor configured to:

collect data from communication equipment;

transmit the data to an external apparatus;

execute a function of the information processing apparatus;

associate the function with the collected data; and

control the transmission so as to transmit the data associated with the executed function to the external apparatus,

wherein the processor controls the execution so as to preferentially execute a function corresponding to an execution request, in a case where the execution request for requesting execution of the function is made, while the processor collects the data from the communication equipment or while the processor transmits the data to the external apparatus,

wherein in a case where the preferentially executed function is set to a first function, the processor controls the execution so as to preferentially execute a second function, in a case where a second execution request for requesting execution of the second function is made after the first function, while the processor transmits the data associated with the first function to the external apparatus, and controls the transmission so as to preferentially transmit the data associated with the first function to the external apparatus after execution of the second function.

2. The information processing apparatus according to claim 1 , the processor configured to:

store related information in which information indicating the function, information indicating the communication equipment, and information indicating a user are associated with each other,

associate the executed function with the collected data, based on the related information.

3. The information processing apparatus according to claim 2 ,

wherein the information indicating the function includes information indicating a type of the function.

4. The information processing apparatus according to claim 3 ,

wherein the information indicating the communication equipment includes an equipment name of the communication equipment and identification information for identifying the communication equipment.

5. The information processing apparatus according to claim 4 ,

wherein the identification information for identifying the communication equipment includes a certificate of the communication equipment.

6. The information processing apparatus according to claim 2 ,

wherein the information indicating the communication equipment includes an equipment name of the communication equipment and identification information for identifying the communication equipment.

7. The information processing apparatus according to claim 6 ,

wherein the identification information for identifying the communication equipment includes a certificate of the communication equipment.

8. A non-transitory computer readable medium storing a program causing a computer to execute a process, the process comprising:

collecting data from communication equipment;

transmitting the data to an external apparatus;

executing a function of an information processing apparatus;

associating the function with the collected data;

controlling the transmission so as to transmit the data associated with the executed function to the external apparatus; and

controlling the execution so as to preferentially execute a function corresponding to an execution request, in a case where the execution request for requesting execution of the function is made, while collecting the data from the communication equipment or while transmitting the data to the external apparatus,

wherein in a case where the preferentially executed function is set to a first function, controlling the execution so as to preferentially execute a second function, in a case where a second execution request for requesting execution of the second function is made after the first function, while transmitting the data associated with the first function to the external apparatus, and controlling the transmission so as to preferentially transmit the data associated with the first function to the external apparatus after execution of the second function.
