Abstract
A multiserver workflow system in which each server and the users who use clients construct one subsystem includes: a plurality of servers; a plurality of clients; and a network to which the servers and the clients are connected. All of the servers have address information of the servers constructing all of the subsystems and correspondence information on all of the users and the subsystem which can be used by respective users. When each client connects to any one of the servers, the client downloads a list of the subsystems which can be used by the user who uses the client and addresses of the servers constructing the usable subsystems from the connection server and stores the list as a connectable server list.
