Abstract: An information processing apparatus that is capable of managing information about operations preceding start of usage of a function while associating with information about operations performed between the start and end of usage of the function. The information processing apparatus includes an operation panel, a display control unit, and a recording unit. The operation panel has a display function and accepts an operation from a user. The display control unit controls the operation panel so as to display an operation object that causes to execute a predetermined function on a screen of the operation panel. The recording unit records information about events concerning operations performed between start and end of the predetermined function and information about an event preceding the start of the predetermined function into a storage unit while associating them to each other.
