Abstract

An image forming apparatus receives at least one setting file including a first item for specifying an application and a second item for specifying an operation target setting content from a server apparatus. If a value specifying an application is set in the first item included in the received setting file, the image forming apparatus operates a setting value of the application according to a value set in the second item included in the received setting file. If a predetermined value defined for operating a setting value of the image forming apparatus is set in the first item included in the received setting file, the image forming apparatus operates the setting value of the image forming apparatus by using a value set in the second item included in the received setting file. The image forming apparatus transmits an operation result to the server apparatus.
