Cloud computing system, document processing method, and storage medium

A document processing method comprising:

• storing, in a request reception step, a message corresponding to a document processing job in a storage unit in response to the receipt of an execution request for the document processing job from an image forming apparatus;
• and
• making, in a document processing step, an acquisition request for the message to the storage unit at a regular interval, acquiring the message, and storing job data that corresponds to the acquired message;
• wherein, before the execution request for the document processing job is received from the image forming apparatus, the document processing step acquires information indicating a location at which the job data is stored, and the request reception step generates screen information for displaying information indicating a the acquired location at which the job data is stored on the image forming apparatus.

A computer readable storage medium on which is stored a computer program for making a computer execute a document processing method, the method comprising:

• storing, in a request reception step, a message corresponding to a document processing job in a storage unit in response to the receipt of an execution request for the document processing job from an image forming apparatus;
• and
• making, in a document processing step, an acquisition request for the message to the storage unit at a regular interval, acquiring the message, and storing job data that corresponds to the acquired message;
