Abstract

An image processing apparatus includes an image processing unit, a use authority information acquisition unit, and a transmission controller. The image processing unit processes an image in accordance with an instruction from a terminal apparatus. The use authority information acquisition unit acquires use authority information in which, for each user, use authority is set for a resource that the image processing apparatus has. The transmission controller transmits, in a case where a change has occurred in a state of the resource, resource-state information, which is information regarding the state of the resource, to a terminal apparatus of a user who has authority to use the resource, in accordance with the use authority information acquired by the use authority information acquisition unit.

Claims (11)

1. An information processing apparatus comprising:

a processor connected to a memory and configured to act as:

an acquisition unit that acquires use authority information in which, for each user, use authority is set for a function relating to a resource of the information processing apparatus; and

a transmission unit that transmits, in a case where a change has occurred in a state of the resource, information relating to a state of the resource to a user having authority to use a function relating to the resource, and does not transmit the information to a user that does not have authority to use the function relating to the resource,

wherein the change in the state of the resource is a change of resource status that influences another user that has use authority for a resource related to the chancre of the resource status.

2. The information processing apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein when the function relating to the resource is unable to be used, a user, even if authenticated for the function relating to the resource, is not provided the information by the transmission unit.

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

acquiring use authority information in which, for each user, use authority is set for a function relating to a resource of the information processing apparatus; and

transmitting, in a case where a change has occurred in a state of the resource, information relating to a state of the resource to a user having authority to use a function relating to the resource, and does not transmit the information to a user that does not have authority to use the function relating to the resource,

wherein the change in the state of the resource is a change of resource status that influences another user that has use authority for a resource related to the change of the resource status.

4. The non-transitory computer readable medium according to claim 3 , wherein when the function relating to the resource is unable to be used, a user, even if authenticated for the function relating to the resource, is not provided the information by the transmitting.
