Abstract
An image processing apparatus comprising, a detector unit configured to detect an event that a user logged in to the image processing apparatus logs out, an query unit configured to be operable when said detector unit detects the event, to query the user whether or not to change a setting of a job under execution, and a control unit configured to be operable when the setting of the job is to be changed as a result of the query made by said query unit, to change the setting of the job and then perform a logout, and, when the setting of the job is not to be changed as a result of the query made by said query unit, to restrict the logout.

6. An image processing apparatus comprising:
-
a detector unit configured to detect an event that a user logs in to the image processing apparatus; a determination unit configured to be operable when the event is detected by said detector unit, to determine whether or not an interactive job that requires an instruction from a user after a start of execution of the job and before an end of the execution of the job is under execution; and a control unit configured to be operable when said determination unit determines that the interactive job is under execution, to query a user whether or not to cancel the interactive job, and, when said determination unit determines that the interactive job is not under execution, to perform a login to the image processing apparatus without making the query. - View Dependent Claims (7, 8)

10. A method of controlling an image processing apparatus, comprising:
-
a detection step of detecting an event that a user logs in to the image processing apparatus; a determination step of determining whether or not an interactive job that requires an instruction from a user after a start of execution of the job and before an end of the execution of the job is under execution, when the event is detected in said detection step; and a control step of querying a user whether or not to cancel the interactive job, when it is determined in said determination step that the interactive job is under execution, and, performing a login to the image processing apparatus without making the query, when it is determined in said determination step that the interactive job is not under execution.

12. A storage medium storing a computer-readable program for causing a computer to execute a method of controlling an image processing apparatus,
wherein the program comprises: -
a detection module for detecting an event that a user logs in to the image processing apparatus; a determination module for determining whether or not an interactive job that requires an instruction from a user after a start of execution of the job and before an end of the execution of the job is under execution, when the event is detected by said detection module; and a control module for querying a user whether or not to cancel the interactive job, when it is determined by said determination module that the interactive job is under execution, and, performing a login to the image processing apparatus without making the query, when it is determined by said determination module that the interactive job is not under execution.
