Abstract
Upon transmission of document data in accordance with a transmission instruction from a client on a LAN, parameters such as a document identifier and an identifier of a receiver terminal are transmitted to a receiving-side communication apparatus. Transmission result (whether or not communication between the apparatus on both sides has been normally performed, whether or not the receiver terminal has been notified of the incoming call, whether or not the document data has been transferred to the receiver terminal, and the status of the terminal) sent from the receiving-side communication apparatus is managed in correspondence with the document identifier. Further, the transmission result is notified to the client that made the transmission instruction. The transmission-management information on plural transmission cases is print-outputted in a report format.
