## Abstract

An information processing apparatus includes a processor configured to, in a case where a utilizer performs a process related to an electronic document, perform highlighted display of an operator for executing an expected process on a display screen based on process content information indicating a content of the expected process expected to be executed on the electronic document.

## Claims

### Claim 1

An information processing apparatus comprising:
a processor configured to:
receive an electronic document, notification information for prompting a user to execute a process related to the electronic document, and a process content information from a server;
start a document application and display the electronic document;
in a case where the user operates a notification message displayed on a display screen based on the notification information, perform highlighted display of an operation button for executing an expected process on the display screen based on the process content information indicating a content of the expected process expected to be executed on the electronic document, wherein the content of the expected process is decided in accordance with a folder that stores the electronic document in the server; and
execute the process related to the electronic document in accordance with the operation button operated by the user.

### Claim 2 (depends on 1)

The information processing apparatus according to claim 1, wherein the processor is configured to:
as the highlighted display, display the operation button for executing the expected process to be larger than an operation button for executing a process other than the expected process.

### Claim 3 (depends on 1)

The information processing apparatus according to claim 1, wherein the processor is configured to:
as the highlighted display, display the operation button for executing the expected process and not display an operation button for executing a process other than the expected process.

### Claim 4 (depends on 1)

The information processing apparatus according to claim 1,
wherein the expected process is a process of editing the electronic document.

### Claim 5 (depends on 4)

The information processing apparatus according to claim 4,
wherein the expected process includes a process of assigning a specific object to the electronic document, and
the processor is configured to:
in a case where the user performs the process related to the electronic document, perform highlighted display of an operation button for assigning an object related to the expected process to the electronic document.

### Claim 6

A non-transitory computer readable medium storing an information processing program causing a computer to:
receive an electronic document, notification information for prompting a user to execute a process related to the electronic document, and a process content information from a server;
start a document application and display the electronic document;
in a case where the user operates a notification message displayed on a display screen based on the notification information, perform highlighted display of an operation button for executing an expected process on the display screen based on the process content information indicating a content of the expected process expected to be executed on the electronic document, wherein the content of the expected process is decided in accordance with a folder that stores the electronic document in the server; and
execute the process related to the electronic document in accordance with the operation button operated by the user.

### Claim 7

An information processing apparatus comprising:
means for receiving an electronic document, notification information for prompting a user to execute a process related to the electronic document, and a process content information from a server;
means for starting a document application and display the electronic document;
means for, in a case where the user operates a notification message displayed on a display screen based on the notification information, performing highlighted display of an operation button for executing an expected process on the display screen based on the process content information indicating a content of the expected process expected to be executed on the electronic document, wherein the content of the expected process is decided in accordance with a folder that stores the electronic document in the server; and
means for executing the process related to the electronic document in accordance with the operation button operated by the user.
