Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

An image processing apparatus includes a reading unit configured to read a document, a processing unit configured to perform character recognition processing of recognizing characters included in an image of the document read by the reading unit, an identification unit configured to identify transfer destination information regarding a transfer destination and a transfer amount from a result obtained by the character recognition processing performed by the processing unit, a transmission unit configured to transmit the transfer destination information regarding the transfer destination and the transfer amount which are identified by the identification unit, a storage unit configured to store the transfer destination information regarding the transfer destination, and an object display unit configured to display an object to call the transfer destination information regarding the transfer destination stored in the storage unit.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1. An image processing apparatus comprising: a reader configured to read a document; one or more memories storing instructions; and one or more processors executing the instructions to cause the image processing apparatus to function as: a processing unit configured to perform character recognition processing of recognizing characters included in an image of the document read by the reader; an identification unit configured to identify transfer destination information regarding a transfer destination and a transfer amount from a result obtained by the character recognition processing performed by the processing unit; a transmission unit configured to transmit the transfer destination information regarding the transfer destination and the transfer amount which are identified by the identification unit; a storage unit configured to store the transfer destination information regarding the transfer destination, wherein the storage unit is configured to store the transfer destination information regarding the transfer destination transmitted by the transmission unit and position information about a position where the transfer destination information is obtained through the character recognition processing; and an object display unit configured to cause a display to display an object to call the transfer destination information regarding the transfer destination stored in the storage unit, wherein in a case where the object is selected by a user, and transfer destination information regarding a new transfer destination obtained through the character recognition processing at the position indicated by the position information about an image of a new document read by the reader and the transfer destination information regarding the transfer destination stored in the storage unit are matched, the image processing apparatus causes the display to display information for transfer processing based on the new document, and wherein, in a case where the object is selected by the user, the transfer destination information regarding the new transfer destination obtained through the character recognition processing at the position indicated by the position information about the image of the new document read by the reader and the transfer destination information regarding the transfer destination stored in the storage unit are not matched, the image processing apparatus makes a notification of an error. 2. The image processing apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the image processing apparatus further causes the display to displays the result obtained by the character recognition processing performed by the processing unit, wherein, after the result is displayed by the display, the transmission unit is configured to transmit the transfer destination information regarding the transfer destination and the transfer amount which are identified by the identification unit. 3. The image processing apparatus according to claim 2 , further comprising an operation panel that receives selection of the transfer destination information regarding the transfer destination and the transfer amount from the result displayed by the display, wherein the identification unit is configured to identify the transfer destination information regarding the transfer destination and the transfer amount based on the selection received by the operation panel. 4. The image processing apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the one or more processors executing the instructions further causes the image processing apparatus to function as a registration unit configured to register authentication information about a server as a transmission destination to which the transmission unit transmits the transfer destination information regarding the transfer destination and the transfer amount. 5. The image processing apparatus according to any one of claim 1 , wherein the transfer destination information regarding the transfer destination includes a bank name. 6. The image processing apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the transfer destination information regarding the transfer destination includes an account type. 7. The image processing apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the transfer destination information regarding the transfer destination includes an account number. 8. A control method for an image processing apparatus, the method comprising: reading a document; performing character recognition processing of recognizing characters included in an image of the read document; identifying transfer destination information regarding a transfer destination and a transfer amount from a result obtained by the performing; transmitting the identified transfer destination information regarding the transfer destination and the identified transfer amount; storing the transfer destination information regarding the transfer destination, wherein the storage unit is configured to store the transfer destination information regarding the transfer destination transmitted by the transmission unit and position information about a position where the transfer destination information is obtained through the character recognition processing; and displaying an object to call the stored transfer destination information regarding the transfer destination, wherein in a case where the object is selected by a user, and transfer destination information regarding a new transfer destination obtained through the character recognition processing at the position indicated by the position information about an image of a new document read by the reader and the transfer destination information regarding the transfer destination stored in the storage unit are matched, the image processing apparatus causes the display to display information for transfer processing based on the new document, and wherein, in a case where the object is selected by the user, the transfer destination information regarding the new transfer destination obtained through the character recognition processing at the position indicated by the position information about the image of the new document read by the reader and the transfer destination information regarding the transfer destination stored in the storage unit are not matched, the image processing apparatus makes a notification of an error. 9. A non-transitory computer readable storage medium storing a computer program that causes a computer to execute a control method for an image processing apparatus, the method comprising: reading a document; performing character recognition processing of recognizing characters included in an image of the read document; identifying transfer destination information regarding a transfer destination and a transfer amount from a result obtained by the performing; transmitting the identified transfer destination information regarding the transfer destination and the identified transfer amount; storing the transfer destination information regarding the transfer destination, wherein the storage unit is configured to store the transfer destination information regarding the transfer destination transmitted by the transmission unit and position information about a position where the transfer destination information is obtained through the character recognition processing; and displaying an object to call the stored transfer destination information regarding the transfer destination, wherein in a case where the object is selected by a user, and transfer destination information regarding a new transfer destination obtained through the character recognition processing at the position indicated by the position information about an image of a new document read by the reader and the transfer destination information regarding th
