Abstract: A system includes a device management apparatus. The device management apparatus includes: one or more memories; and one or more processors. The one or more processors are configured to: store user group information that defines at least one user group, each user group being a group of one or more users; store device group definition information that defines at least one device group in association with at least one user group, each device group being a group of one or more network devices; store authority information of each device group associated with at least one user group; store association information that associates each of the network devices to be objects of management with at least one of the device groups; and determine whether to permit a user operation related to a network device belonging to a device group based on the authority information of each of the device groups.

Abstract: An information processing apparatus that includes processing circuitry that: acquires information regarding a processing content to be performed by a terminal; acquires information regarding a designated time at which the terminal is designated to perform the processing content; acquires a selection of a base time zone from a plurality of time zones including at least a first time zone to which the information processing apparatus belongs and a second time zone to which the terminal belongs, the designated time being corrected according to the selected base time zone to set an execution time at which the terminal performs the processing content; and transmits an instruction to the terminal to perform the processing content at the execution time.
