Apparatus for controlling job history recording settings in an image forming apparatus, and method and storage medium for controlling the same

摘要

When an instruction about changing the job execution limit information is made, a policy server determines whether or not the changed job execution limit information indicates that the execution of the job by the job execution unit is not limited. When the changed job execution limit information indicates that the execution of the job is not limited and the setting is made such that the job history information for the job is recorded on the image processing apparatus, the policy server sets the changed job execution limit information to the image processing apparatus.
