A job processing apparatus in a job processing system including the job processing apparatus for executing a job, and an information processing apparatus having a job data generation function and capable of communicating with said job processing apparatus, which are connected to a network, said job processing apparatus comprising:

• a checking unit configured to check whether or not usage restriction information corresponding to a first operator instructing generation of job data using the job data generation function is written in the job data received from said information processing apparatus;
• and
• a job processing unit configured to process the job data in accordance with the written usage restriction information when said checking unit recognizes that the usage restriction information is written in the job data, and when said checking unit can not recognize that the usage restriction information is written in the job data, to acquire usage restriction information of a second operator instructing execution of a job based on job data in said job processing apparatus from a management unit that manages usage restriction information for restricting usage of functions of said job processing apparatus for each user, and process the job data in accordance with the acquired usage restriction information.

A method of controlling a job processing apparatus in a job processing system comprising said job processing apparatus for executing a job, and an information processing apparatus having a job data generation function and capable of communicating with said job processing apparatus, which are connected to a network, said method comprising the steps of:

• checking whether or not usage restriction information corresponding to a first operator who has instructed generation of job data using the job data generation function is written in the job data received from said information processing apparatus;
• processing the job data in accordance with the written usage restriction information when it is recognized in said checking step that the usage restriction information is written in the job data;
• and acquiring usage restriction information of a second operator instructing execution of a job based on job data in said job processing apparatus from a management unit that manages usage restriction information for restricting usage of functions of said job processing apparatus for each user, and processing the job data in accordance with the acquired usage restriction information, when it is not recognized in said checking step that the usage restriction information is written in the job data.
