When the remaining number of the business cards is reduced, the user holding the business cards may order business cards by himself/herself based on the remaining number of the business cards. However, when the number of the business cards ordered by the user is not consistent with the number of business cards which can be printed on a business card printing paper sheet, waste is generated in the business card printing paper sheet.

Aspects of non-limiting embodiments of the present disclosure provide an information processing apparatus and an information processing program which can suppress generation of waste in a resource used for objects to be produced, in comparison with a case where the objects are produced in accordance with an accepted order.

Aspects of certain non-limiting embodiments of the present disclosure address the above advantages and/or other advantages not described above. However, aspects of the non-limiting embodiments are not required to address the advantages described above, and aspects of the non-limiting embodiments of the present disclosure may not address advantages described above.

According to an aspect of the present disclosure, there is provided an information processing apparatus including a processor, wherein the processor is configured to: accept an order related to production and including objects and a quantity about at least one user; and change the quantity of the accepted order so that, of a resource used for the production of the objects, a portion which cannot be used for the production is not larger than a predetermined standard.
