Equipment, which are to be checked for the amount of usage of consumables, are extracted based on an agreement ID, and a closing day for checking the amount of usage of consumables specified for each of the extracted pieces of equipment is obtained. A check is subsequently performed, by the closing day, to ascertain whether or not a check date exists on which the amount of usage has been checked by referencing a log which records the amount of usage of consumables. When a check date does not exist in the log, the sequence for checking the amount of usage is changed in accordance with priority level data specified by the agreement ID.
