An information processing apparatus acquires storage location information representing a storage location of an image file in a first external information processing apparatus from an image reading apparatus, and determines whether the storage location of the image file can store the image file based on the acquired storage location information. When it determines that the storage location of the image file can store the image file, it acquires screen information used to generate a screen for generating a scan ticket designating a storage location, from a second external information processing apparatus, and displays the screen for generating the scan ticket based on the acquired screen information.
