Abstract

A device, a process execution system, a process execution method, and a non-transitory recording medium. The device requests an information processing system to perform a second process using result of a first process executed by the device, displays on a display, result of the second process acquired from the information processing system, and receives a request for the device to execute the first process again.

Claims (62)

1. A device comprising:

circuitry configured to:

request an information processing system to perform a second process using a result of a first process executed by the device;

display on a display, a result of the second process acquired from the information processing system; and

receive a request for the device to execute the first process again,

wherein when the first process is scanning of a plurality of images at once and the second process is cropping of each image from image data generated by the scanning and transmission of each cropped image to the outside, and when a request to combine cropped images of a plurality of receipts is received,

the circuitry is further configured to acquire the cropped images of the plurality of receipts that are candidates for combining from the information processing system, and

the circuitry is further configured to display on the display with priority the cropped images of the plurality of receipts that are the candidates for combining.

2. The device of claim 1 , wherein

when the request for executing the first process again is received, the circuitry is further configured to execute the first process again.

3. The device of claim 2 , wherein:

the second process includes a plurality of processes; and

the circuitry is configured to display on the display, the result of the second process before all the plurality of processes are executed.

4. The device of claim 2 , wherein:

when the first process is scanning of a document and the second process is image processing of image data generated by the scanning and transmission of the image data to the outside,

the circuitry is configured to:

display on the display the result of the image processing acquired from the information processing system;

scan the document again and request the information processing system to execute the second process when the request to execute the scanning again is received; and

transmit the image data to the information processing system when a request to transmit the image data to the outside is received.

5. The device of claim 4 , wherein

when the first process is the scanning of a plurality of images at once and the second process is the cropping of each image from the image data generated by the scanning and transmission of each cropped image to the outside, the circuitry is configured to:

display on the display each cropped image acquired from the information processing system; and

scan the plurality of images again, the plurality of images whose arrangement has been changed, when a request to execute the scanning again is received.

6. The device of claim 5 , wherein the circuitry is configured to:

display the cropped images selected from cropped images of all receipts in each of a plurality of fields for displaying the cropped images of the receipts; and

receive the combining of a plurality of cropped images displayed in the plurality of fields.

7. The device of claim 5 , wherein the circuitry is configured to:

display on the display a calendar icon together with the cropped image;

display on the display a calendar when pressing of the calendar icon is received; and

when pressing of a date on the calendar is received, receives the date as a file name of the cropped image.

8. The device of claim 2 , wherein

when the first process is selecting a stamp image and a file, and the second process is generating a stamped image of the file on which the stamp image is superimposed, the circuitry is configured to:

display on the display the stamped image acquired from the information processing system;

display on the display a selection screen of the stamp image and the selection screen of the file again when request for selecting the stamp image and selecting the file is received again;

acquire the stamped image using one of a received stamp image and a received file from the information processing system again;

display on the display the stamped image again; and

print the stamped image when a request for printing of the stamped image is received.

9. The device of claim 8 , wherein

the first process further includes receiving a selection of a position of the stamp image, and

the circuitry is configured to:

display on the display the stamped image acquired from the information processing system;

receive the selection of the position of the stamp image again;

acquire the stamped image from the information processing system, generated based on a received position of the stamp image;

display on the display the stamped image again; and

when the printing of the stamped image is received, print the stamped image.

10. A process execution system comprising:

an information processing system; and

a device that requests the information processing system to execute a second process using a result of a first process in the device, the device including circuitry configured to:

display on a display a result of the second process acquired from the information processing system; and

receive input for executing the first process in the device again, and

the information processing system comprising:

another circuitry configured to transmit to the device, a result of executing the second process using a result of the first process executed again,

wherein when the first process is scanning of a plurality of images at once and the second process is cropping of each image from image data generated by the scanning and transmission of each cropped image to the outside, and when a request to combine cropped images of a plurality of receipts is received,

the circuitry is further configured to acquire the cropped images of the plurality of receipts that are candidates for combining from the information processing system, and

the circuitry is further configured to display on the display with priority the cropped images of the plurality of receipts that are the candidates for combining.

11. A process execution method executed by a device that requests an information processing system for executing a second process using a result of a first process by the device, the method comprising:

displaying on a display a result of the second process acquired from the information processing system; and

receiving input for executing the first process again in the device,

wherein when the first process is scanning of a plurality of images at once and the second process is cropping of each image from image data generated by the scanning and transmission of each cropped image to the outside, and when a request to combine cropped images of a plurality of receipts is received,

the method further comprises acquiring the cropped images of the plurality of receipts that are candidates for combining from the information processing system, and

the method further comprises displaying on the display with priority the cropped images of the plurality of receipts that are the candidates for combining.

12. A non-transitory recording medium storing a plurality of instructions which, when executed by one or more processors, causes the processors to perform the process execution method of claim 11 .
