Information processing apparatus, information processing system, and non-transitory computer readable medium

1. An information processing apparatus comprising:

a processor programmed to

select an arbitrary location in an image;

set a person-in-charge for the arbitrary location in the image;

generate instructions for a sticky note screen displaying the image and a sticky note attached to the image at the arbitrary location in the image; and

in accordance with a position of the sticky note attached to the image, allocate contents of the sticky note to the person-in-charge corresponding to the arbitrary location in the image,

wherein the sticky note comprises a field for arbitrary data and the sticky note and the image are generated by separate applications.

2. The information processing apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the processor is further programmed to:

generate instructions for a progress screen displaying a task to be done, a person-in-charge to do the task, and a progress status in association with each other, and

add the contents to the progress screen as the task to be done in association with the person-in-charge.

3. The information processing apparatus according to claim 2 , wherein

the processor is programmed to change the displayed progress status in accordance with a user's input, and

when the progress status on the progress screen is changed by the user's input, the processor is programmed to update a sticky note corresponding to a changed task to be done.

4. The information processing apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein

in accordance with the position of the sticky note attached to the image, the processor is programmed to transmit a message including the contents of the sticky note to the person-in-charge corresponding to the position.

5. The information processing apparatus according to claim 4 , wherein the processor is programmed to

receive a reply to the message from the person-in-charge, and

update the sticky note corresponding to the contents when the reply is received.

6. The information processing apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein

a progress screen generated by an external apparatus displays a task to be done, a person-in-charge to do the task, and a progress status in association with each other, and

the processor is programmed to transmit the contents to the external apparatus so that the transmitted contents are added to the progress screen generated by the external apparatus in association with the person-in-charge.

7. The information processing apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein

the processor is programmed to associate persons-in-charge with partial images that are parts of the image, respectively, and

when the sticky note is attached to a partial image, the processor is programmed to allocate the contents of the sticky note to the person-in-charge associated with the partial image as a task to be done.

8. The information processing apparatus according to claim 7 , wherein

only when the sticky note has an attribute indicating that the sticky note is an allocation target by the processor, the processor is programmed to allocate the contents of the sticky note to the person-in-charge corresponding to the position.

9. An information processing system comprising:

a first device; and

a second device, wherein

the first device comprises a first processor programmed to

select an arbitrary location in an image

set a person-in-charge for the arbitrary location in the image,

generate instructions for a sticky note screen displaying the image and a sticky note attached to the image at the arbitrary location in the image,

in accordance with a position of the sticky note attached to the image, allocate contents of the sticky note to the person-in-charge corresponding to the arbitrary location in the image, and

generate instructions to transmit an allocation result to the second device, and

the second device comprises a second processor programmed to

receive the allocation result from the first device, and

allocate a task to be done to the person-in-charge in accordance with the allocation result,

wherein the sticky note comprises a field for arbitrary data and the sticky note and the image are generated by separate applications.

10. The information processing system according to claim 9 , wherein

the second processor is further programmed to

manage a progress status of the task to be done, and

generate instructions to transmit the progress status of the task to be done to the first device when the progress status is updated, and

the first processor is further programmed to

when the progress status of the task to be done is received from the second device, describe the progress status in the sticky note corresponding to the task to be done.

11. A non-transitory computer readable medium storing a program that causes a computer to execute information processing, the information processing comprising:

selecting an arbitrary location in an image;

setting a person-in-charge for the arbitrary location in the image;

generating a sticky note screen displaying the image and a sticky note attached to the image at the arbitrary location in the image; and

in accordance with a position of the sticky note attached to the image, allocating contents of the sticky note to the person-in-charge corresponding to the arbitrary location in the image,

wherein the sticky note comprises a field for arbitrary data and the sticky note and the image are generated by separate applications.
