Abstract

A control device includes an execution control unit that performs control to execute specific processing based on information posted by a user in a talk room in which each of plural participating users is able to post and view information, in which the execution control unit provides notification regarding execution of the specific processing to only some of the plural users according to predetermined conditions.

Claims (47)

1. A control device, comprising:

a processor that performs control to execute specific processing based on information posted by a user in a talk room in which each of a plurality of participating users is able to post and view information,

wherein the processor provides notification regarding execution of the specific processing to only some users of the plurality of participating users according to predetermined conditions.

2. The control device according to claim 1 ,

wherein the predetermined conditions are that a content of the notification is a content other than a content indicating start of execution or completion of execution of the specific processing, and

the processor posts the notification to the talk room in a case where the content of the notification is the content indicating start of execution or completion of execution of the specific processing.

3. The control device according to claim 2 ,

wherein, in a case where there are a plurality of users of notification destinations of the notification regarding execution of the specific processing, the processor posts the notification regarding execution of the specific processing to another talk room which only the plurality of users of the notification destinations participate.

4. The control device according to claim 1 ,

wherein the predetermined conditions are set by a combination of a content of the notification and the some users to whom the notification is to be provided.

5. The control device according to claim 4 ,

wherein the specific processing is processing executed by an external apparatus, and

the predetermined conditions are that the content of the notification is a content indicating that an operation of the external apparatus is required and the some users are users satisfying a predetermined relationship with the external apparatus among the of c a users participating in the talk room.

6. The control device according to claim 5 ,

wherein the predetermined relationship is that a distance from the external apparatus is equal to or less than a predetermined value, and

the some users are users whose distances from the external apparatus are equal to or less than the predetermined value among the plurality of participating users.

7. The control device according to claim 6 ,

wherein, in a case where there are a plurality of users of notification destinations of the notification regarding execution of the specific processing, the processor posts the notification regarding execution of the specific processing to another talk room in which only the plurality of users of the notification destinations participate.

8. The control device according to claim 5 ,

wherein the predetermined relationship is that association with the external apparatus is registered in advance, and

the some users are users associated with the external apparatus among the plurality of participating users.

9. The control device according to claim 5 ,

wherein the predetermined conditions are that the content of the notification is a content regarding processing to be executed before processing in the external apparatus and the some users are users who post information for giving an instruction to execute the specific processing among the plurality of participating users.

10. The control device according to claim 5 ,

wherein, in a case where there are a plurality of users of notification destinations of the notification regarding execution of the specific processing, the processor posts the notification regarding execution of the specific processing to another talk room in which only the plurality of users of the notification destinations participate.

11. The control device according to claim 4 ,

wherein, in a case where there are a plurality of users of notification destinations of the notification regarding execution of the specific processing, the processor posts the notification regarding execution of the specific processing to another talk room in which only the plurality of users of the notification destinations participate.

12. The control device according to claim 1 ,

wherein, in a case where there are a plurality of users of notification destinations of the notification regarding execution of the specific processing, the processor posts the notification regarding execution of the specific processing to another talk room in which only the plurality of users of the notification destinations participate.

13. The control device according to claim 12 ,

wherein another talk room is dynamically generated due to posting of information for giving an instruction to execute the specific processing.

14. The control device according to claim 1 ,

wherein the some users are users who post information for giving an instruction to execute the specific processing among the plurality of participating users.

15. The control device according to claim 14 ,

wherein the specific processing is processing executed by an external apparatus, and

the processor provides notification regarding execution of the specific processing to only a user who posts information in a case where a distance from the external apparatus is equal to or less than a predetermined value, and posts notification regarding execution of the specific processing to the talk room in a case where the distance from the external apparatus is greater than the predetermined value.

16. The control device according to claim 14 ,

wherein the specific processing is scanning processing for reading an image from a document, and

the predetermined conditions are that a content of the notification is relevant to the scanning processing.

17. The control device according to claim 1 ,

wherein the processor further provides the notification to users other than the some users among the plurality of users in a case where the notification is not checked by the some users even though a first threshold value time has passed.

18. The control device according to claim 17 ,

wherein the processor further provides the notification to the users other than the some users in a case where processing corresponding to the notification is not performed by the some users even though a second threshold value time has passed.

19. The control device according to claim 18 ,

wherein the second threshold value time is set to a e longer than the first threshold value time.

20. A non-transitory computer readable medium storing a control program causing a computer to function as:

the control device according to claim 1 .
