Abstract:
A management apparatus included in a system including a plurality of MFPs receives a use history of a user from at least one MFP among the plurality of MFPs. The management apparatus, based on the use history, designates a group including one or more MFPs among the plurality of MFPs as MFPs being preferentially requested information related to a job issued by the user. Then, the management apparatus updates a group, which is stored in the storage device and previously designated, to be a designated group.
