and perform control such that a first display element representing a branch in the workflow is displayed in a mode indicating that a branch destination of the branch is not determined. ### Claim 2 (depends on 1) The information processing apparatus according to claim 1, wherein the processor is configured to: perform control such that information regarding steps of a plurality of branch destinations of the branch in the workflow is displayed in association with the first display element. ### Claim 3 (depends on 2) The information processing apparatus according to claim 2, wherein the information regarding the steps of the plurality of branch destinations is the number of steps of each branch destination of the plurality of branch destinations. ### Claim 4 (depends on 1) The information processing apparatus according to claim 1, wherein the processor is configured to: in a case where the branch destination of the branch is determined as one branch destination, perform control such that a second display element representing a step of the one branch destination in the workflow is displayed instead of the first display element. ### Claim 5 (depends on 4) The information processing apparatus according to claim 4, wherein the processor is configured to: perform control such that the second display element and a third display element representing another step of the one branch destination in the workflow are displayed as a group. ### Claim 6 (depends on 4) The information processing apparatus according to claim 4, wherein the processor is configured to: determine the branch destination of the branch as the one branch destination based on a result of specific processing that does not require an operation of a user. ### Claim 7 (depends on 6) The information processing apparatus according to claim 6, wherein the processor is configured to: perform control such that information indicating that the one branch destination has been determined based on the result of the specific processing is displayed in association with the second display element. ### Claim 8 (depends on 4) The information processing apparatus according to claim 4, wherein the processor is configured to: in a case where there is a problem in determining the branch destination of the branch, output information indicating that the workflow is to be edited. ### Claim 9 (depends on 1) The information processing apparatus according to claim 1, wherein the processor is configured to: perform control such that a fourth display element representing that an operation of a user is required to determine the branch destination of the branch is displayed in association with the first display element. ### Claim 10 A non-transitory computer readable medium storing a program causing a computer to realize: a function of performing control such that display elements representing steps in a workflow are displayed in a row; and a function of performing control such that a first display element representing a branch in the workflow is displayed in a mode indicating that a branch destination of the branch is not determined. ### Claim 11 An information processing apparatus comprising: means for performing control such that display elements representing steps in a workflow are displayed in a row; and means for performing control such that a first display element representing a branch in the workflow is displayed in a mode indicating that a branch destination of the branch is not determined.
