A management device, a control method thereof, and a storage medium storing a program manage network devices. Map information is managed by assigning attribute information thereto, information for a network device (management target) is managed by assigning attribute information thereto, and user information is managed by assigning attribute information thereto. When the map information becomes a placement target for a placement operation for a network device corresponding to a map selected, map information that has been assigned attribute information that does not corresponding to the attribute information for the network device is prevented from being selected. Information for a network device is displayed on a display device displaying a map based on the results of the placement operation using user selected map information.
