Abstract
An MFP (communication apparatus) accepts, as an operation for making an electronic data transmission destination setting, an operation using a local UI (LUI) or a remote UI (RUI). The MFP, in accordance with an accepted operation, logs in to an LDAP server (server apparatus), and performs obtainment processing for obtaining a transmission destination from the server. If logging in to the LDAP server in accordance with an operation using the LUI in the obtainment processing, the MFP uses authentication information stored in an HDD, and if logging in to the LDAP server in accordance with an operation using the RUI, the MFP does not use authentication information stored in the HDD.
