1. A workflow processing apparatus comprising:
a processor configured to:
determine a first partial workflow based on a user operation designating a range from a first process in a workflow in execution to a second process included within a plurality of processes following the first process;
generate, based on the first partial workflow, a second partial workflow in which processing executed in the first partial workflow is executed separately from the first partial workflow, the first partial workflow being a part of the workflow within a range designated by a user, wherein the first partial workflow or the second partial workflow includes one of a reception process, a plate making process, a printing plate process, an offset printing process, a cutting process, a digital printing process, or a surface processing process;
manage processing in a subsequent stage of the first partial workflow and the processing in a subsequent stage of the second partial workflow, in one partial workflow.
