Apparatus and method for performing a specific process based on a setup condition, and a storage medium for such a program

Abstract

An attribute of object information to be processed and a corresponding process are designated, and a command to be executed is set. When the process designated for the object information having the designated attribute is performed, the command that is set is executed. Further, a status that is employed as a process execution condition is designated, and a corresponding process that is to be performed while the status corresponds to that of the designated status is stored with that status. Then, when it is determined that the current status is the designated status, the corresponding process is performed, and thus, each time a specific event occurs, a corresponding process can be performed without an instruction having to be issued. Specifically, a trigger for the issuance of a notification is set, and a time period extending from the time the trigger is tripped until the notification is issued is designated. When the designated time has elapsed following the tripping of the trigger for the notification issuance, the notification is issued to a designated destination.
