Service processing device and method
First Claim
1. A service processing device comprising:
- a controller that;
(1) interprets contents of script data that describes at least a location of document data as a processing object, and contents of plural service processing operations to be performed to the document data; and
(2) links plural service processing units that are connected to a network with each other to perform the plural service processing operations to the document data on the basis of a result of the interpreting.

Abstract
A plurality of equipment connected to a network are linked with each other to perform plural processing operations to document data. When, for example, a user defines a desired service linkage job flow by using, for example, a GUI screen displayed on a client terminal, job flow information is transmitted to a script creation server, and a script is created in which processing contents and a storage location of a document as a processing object are defined. The created script can be stored in a storage unit such as, for example, a script management server. When the user selects a desired script among plural scripts stored in the script management server, the selected script is transmitted to a linkage processing server. The linkage processing server interprets the script, makes a processing request to respective devices such as, for example, an image processing device so that the document is processed in accordance with the processing contents described in the script, and links the devices with each other to perform plural processing operations.

16. A service processing device comprising:
a controller that;
(1) interprets contents of script data that describes at least a location of document data as a processing object and contents of plural service processing operations to be performed to the document data;
(2) executes at least one of the service processing operations to the document data on the basis of a result of the interpreting; and
(3) causes the service processing device to transmit the script to another service processing device for performing a next service processing operation after executing the at least one service processing operation.- View Dependent Claims (17, 18, 19, 20)

executing means for executing at least one of the service processing operations to the document data on the basis of an interpretation result of the interpreting means; and
transmission means for transmitting the script to another service processing device for performing a next service processing operation after the executing means executes the at least one service processing operation. - View Dependent Claims (22, 23, 24, 25)
