SCREEN CONTROL DEVICE, IMAGE FORMING APPARATUS, AND COMPUTER READABLE MEDIUM
First Claim
1. A screen control device comprising:
- a history storage unit that stores history information associating information on a content of a process executed in an image forming apparatus with user information that identifies a user who executed the process;
a periodic process determination unit configured to determine whether a process executed by the user is a periodic process executed periodically on a basis of the history information;
an execution schedule calculation unit configured to calculate, in a case where it is determined that the process executed by the user is a periodic process, an execution scheduled date when the periodic process is executed next time;
a periodic process management unit configured to manage the periodic process in association with the user and the calculated execution scheduled date; and
a display controller configured to display a screen that allows an execution of the periodic process on a display when the user uses the image forming apparatus during a given term including the execution scheduled date.

Abstract
A screen control device includes: a history storage unit that stores history information associating information on a process executed in an image forming apparatus with user information that identifies a user who executed the process; a periodic process determination unit that determines whether a process executed by the user is a periodic process executed periodically based on the history information; an execution schedule calculation unit that calculates, in a case where the process executed by the user is a periodic process, an execution scheduled date when the periodic process is executed next time; a periodic process management unit that manages the periodic process in association with the user and the calculated execution scheduled date; and a display controller that displays a screen that allows an execution of the periodic process on a display when the user uses the image forming apparatus during a given term including the execution scheduled date.

6. A computer readable medium storing a program causing a computer to execute a process, the process comprising:
-
determining whether a process executed by a user is a periodic process executed periodically on a basis of history information, which is stored in a storage device and associates information on a process executed in an image forming apparatus with user information that identifies a user who executed the process; calculating, in a case where it is determined that the process executed by the user is a periodic process, an execution scheduled date when the periodic process is executed next time; storing the periodic process in a storage device in association with the user and the calculated execution scheduled date; and displaying a screen that allows an execution of the periodic process on a display when the user uses the image forming apparatus during a given term including the execution scheduled date.
