Problems solved by technology

However, with the conventional technique described above, when switching from a screen on which all print jobs are listed to another screen, a display format, according to which the print jobs were sorted, is not retained.
Consequently, it is difficult to find a desired print job on a screen listing all print jobs after switching to another screen.
Therefore, an instruction for re-sorting the print jobs is required, which in turn disadvantageously requires an operation by an operator.
However, conventionally, such demands can not be satisfied.

Abstract

It is determined whether or not a change request for changing an array of a plurality of items of job information on a job list screen to a second array being different from a first array is inputted via a user interface. If it is determined that the change request is inputted, a job list screen is displayed in which the array of the plurality of items of job information is changed to the second array. Display contents of the user interface are changed in response to a user operation with respect to a print job displayed on the job list screen. If the change request is inputted prior to the user operation, the job list screen in the second array is redisplayed upon the conclusion of processing due to the user operation. If the change request is not inputted prior to the user operation, the job list screen in the first array is redisplayed.

Description

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0001]1. Field of the Invention[0002]The present invention relates to a printing apparatus that causes a user interface to display a job list screen displaying a plurality of items of job information regarding a plurality of print jobs in a predetermined array, a control method thereof, and a program.[0003]2. Description of the Related Art[0004]A print management system is known in which a plurality of printers, a plurality of client computers, and a print management server are connected via a network. For such a print management system, a method is proposed in which a single panel for listing all managing print jobs is provided at a print management server so as to enable a dedicated operator to promptly and accurately identify a status of a print job (refer to Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 2007-272901).[0005]Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 2007-272901 also proposes a method for sorting an order of print jobs on the single panel provided at the print manage...
