Job processing method, job processing device, and storage medium

A computer-readable storage medium which stores a computer program to execute a job processing method of a system having a job processing device capable of executing a process necessary in a job, said method comprising the steps of:

• enabling to accept, from an operator through a user interface unit, a request for causing said job processing device to execute in the recovery operation of a job a process according to a request of the operator of plural processes being execution targets in the job of which the process was interrupted by occurrence of an interruption cause in the job processing device;
• causing the job processing device to execute in the recovery operation of the job the process based on the request after the interruption cause is released;
• and
• enabling to accept, from the operator through the user interface unit, at least one of a second type recovery request and a third type recovery request, different from a first type recovery request for causing the job processing device to execute, in the recovery operation of the job, the process interrupted in the job by the occurrence of the interruption cause without executing the process already executed in the job by the job processing device before the interruption cause occurs,
• wherein the second type recovery request is a request for causing the job processing device to again execute, in the recovery operation of the job according to the request of the operator, the process already executed in the job by the job processing device before the interruption cause occurs, and
• wherein the third type recovery request is a request for causing to skip, in the recovery operation of the job according to the request of the operator, the process not yet executed in the job by the job processing device before the interruption cause occurs.

A job processing device capable of executing a process necessary in a job, comprising:

• a user interface controller adapted to be able to accept, from an operator through a user interface unit, a request for causing said job processing device to execute in the recovery operation of a job a process according to a request of the operator from among the plural processes being execution targets in the job of which the process in said job processing device was interrupted by occurrence of an interruption cause in said job processing device;
• and
• a job operation controller adapted to cause said job processing device to execute in the recovery operation of the job the process based on the request after the interruption cause is released,
• wherein said user interface controller enables to accept, from the operator through the user interface unit, at least one of a second type recovery request and a third type recovery request, different from a first type recovery request for causing said job processing device to execute, in the recovery operation of the job, the process interrupted in the job by the occurrence of the interruption cause without executing the process already executed in the job by said job processing device before the interruption cause occurs,
• wherein the second type recovery request is a request for causing said job processing device to again execute, in the recovery operation of the job according to the request of the operator, the process already executed in the job by said job processing device before the interruption cause occurs, and
• wherein the third type recovery request is a request for causing to skip, in the recovery operation of the job according to the request of the operator, the process not yet executed in the job by said job processing device before the interruption cause occurs.
