Abstract
A management device capable of communicating with a device to be managed that performs a task includes a storage that stores a task list used to manage the task, and a controller. The controller acquires the task to be performed in the device to be managed and information regarding the device to be managed, generates a task group in a case that no task group is present to which the acquired task belongs, and registers the acquired task in the task list in a case that a task group is present to which the acquired task belongs, and the task for the device to be managed is not present in the task group.
Claims8
A management device capable of communicating with a device to be managed that performs a task, the management device comprising:
- a storage that stores a task list used to manage the task;
- and
- a controller,
- wherein the controller
- acquires the task to be performed in the device to be managed and information regarding the device to be managed,
- generates a task group in a case that no task group is present to which the acquired task belongs, and
