Abstract
A workflow approval system includes an acquisition unit, a recognition unit, and a route setting unit. The acquisition unit acquires a first image. The recognition unit recognizes one or more approval fields included in the first image on the basis of the arrangement of a combination of characters included in the first image and a delimiting line that delimits a predetermined region in the first image. The route setting unit sets an approval order indicating the order of approvers who approve the first image, on the basis of the array of the one or more approval fields recognized by the recognition unit. The delimiting line includes one or more straight lines or one or more curved lines.
