Abstract
An image processing apparatus, in which an operator can register a workflow with an easy operation, the usage of a routine task function can thus be facilitated, and the work efficiency of the operator can be improved. A plurality of functions for an image processing are provided with the image processing apparatus capable of executing a process including a combination of the plurality of the functions as a workflow. An operation unit receives an operation by an operator for the image processing apparatus. A storing unit stores the operation, which is received by the operation unit, by the operator as an operation history. An extracting unit extracts operation information for causing the workflow to be executed from the operation history stored in the storing unit. A registering unit registers the operation information extracted by the extracting unit.
