BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
The present invention sells products such as an electronic cash register having a function of printing and issuing a receipt including a date field, a payee field, an amount field, a product name field, and a POS (Point Of Sales) terminal. The present invention relates to a registered data processing apparatus.
[0002]
[Prior art]
As a product sales registration data processing device with a conventional receipt issuance function, it stores in advance the format data of the receipt with date column, payee column, amount column, item name column, etc., and measures the current date and time And a transaction counter for totaling the sales amounts of the purchased products registered as one transaction by the product registration means. Then, when the receipt is issued by the key input of the receipt key, the format data of the receipt is read, and the current date measured by the clock unit is printed in the date column of the format data, and The receipt print data is created so that the amount calculated by the transaction total is printed in the amount column, and this print data is given to the receipt printer, and the total amount of the purchased goods registered as one transaction on the receipt paper is displayed. It was known to print and issue a receipt with a face value.
Accordingly, in the receipt printed and issued by the conventional merchandise sales registration data processing apparatus, the recipient column and the item name column are blank, and the cashier enters the recipient name and the item name, respectively.
[0003]
[Problems to be solved by the invention]
In this way, in the product sales registration data processing apparatus having the conventional receipt issuing function, it was possible to issue a receipt that automatically printed the total price of the purchased product as the face value, but the recipient column and the item name column Was blank and the cashier had to fill in the name of the item as well as the name of the recipient. Therefore, in order to simplify the entry work on the cashier's receipt, it has been common practice to enter an abstract name such as “product price” as the product name. For this reason, there was a case in which the recipient complained that it was impossible to respond to which product the receipt was for.
In addition, for product sales data processing devices for business categories such as restaurants, a name unique to the business format (for example, a restaurant fee for restaurants) is fixedly set and automatically printed in the product name column of the receipt. Although there was something like this, in this case as well, only one type of fixed name can be printed, and the above problem has not been solved.
[0004]
The present invention has been made based on such circumstances. The purpose of the present invention is to provide a receipt in which the amount of the purchased product is printed in the amount column and the name for identifying the purchased product is printed in the product name column. It is an object of the present invention to provide a merchandise sales registration data processing apparatus that can be issued and that can reduce the work burden at the time of issuing a cashier receipt and can improve the service to the receipt recipient.

The keyboard 9 is a numeric key for entering numerical data such as the number of purchased products sold and the amount of money received from customers, and a deposit / cash key as a registration closing means for declaring the end of purchase product registration for one transaction. K1 and a receipt key K2 as a receipt issuing command means for issuing a receipt are provided.
[0013]
The display 11 displays the product name and sales price of the purchased product, and displays the total price and change of all the purchased products registered for sale as one transaction. It has.
The printer 13 prints the product names, sales amounts, total amounts, etc. of all purchased products registered as one transaction on the roll paper, cuts them and issues them as receipts. In this embodiment, the receipt 40 is printed and issued.
[0014]
The scanner 15 optically reads a barcode. In the first embodiment, a barcode of a product code for specifying the product is printed or affixed to each product, and attached to the purchased product by the scanner 15. The purchased product is registered by reading the barcode. Here, the scanner 15 constitutes a product registration means in the first embodiment.
[0015]
In the POS terminal having such a configuration, as shown in FIG. 2 in particular, the RAM 3 is a product in which product information such as a department code, a product name, and a unit price to which the product belongs is preset corresponding to a product code specifying each product. An information file 31 is formed. In addition, the department name corresponding to the department code that classifies each product is stored, and the amount and points of the registered products are accumulated for each department code, and the sales amount and sales score for each department code are stored. A memory 32, a transaction product buffer 33 for storing data of the code, name, amount and score of a purchased product registered as a transaction, and a purchase point counter 34 for counting the number of purchased products registered as a transaction. Transaction sum total 35 for summing up the amounts of purchased products registered as 1; flag memory 36 of registered flag set (1) when registration of purchased product as transaction is started; Flag memory 37 of the closing flag that is set (1) when registration is completed, as shown in FIG. 3, title column 41, date column 42, recipient column 43, and amount column 44 A receipt form memory 38 for storing format data for issuing a horizontally long receipt 40 in which an item name / score column 45 and an issuer column 46 are arranged, a receipt date column 42, an amount column 44, an item name / score column 45, respectively. A receipt memory 39 or the like for temporarily storing data to be printed is formed.
[0016]
Here, the product information file 31 constitutes a product name storage unit that stores a product name corresponding to a product code for specifying each product. The purchase point counter 34 constitutes a registration point counting unit that counts the registration points of all the purchased products registered as one transaction by the product registration unit.
[0017]
Thus, in the POS terminal according to the first embodiment, the product code (bar code) of the purchased product is read and inputted by the scanner 15 as the product registration means in a state where the “registration” mode is selected by the mode switch 6. Then, the program is configured so that the CPU 1 starts the product code input process shown in the flowchart of FIG.
That is, when the product code input process is started, the CPU 1 first determines whether or not the registering flag is set in the flag memory 36 as ST (step) 1. If it is not set here, since the first purchased product in one transaction is registered, the transaction product buffer 33, the purchase point counter 34 and the transaction total counter 35 are cleared as ST2. In ST3, a registering flag is set (1) in the flag memory 36. If the tightening flag is set in the flag memory 37, the flag memory 37 is reset (0). On the other hand, when the registering flag is set in ST1, since the second and subsequent purchased products in one transaction are registered, the processes of ST2 and ST3 are not performed.
[0018]
Next, in step ST4, the CPU 1 searches the product information file 31 and reads the department code, product name, and unit price corresponding to the product code of the registered product. In ST5, the sales price is calculated by multiplying the unit price by the sales score of the registered product, and the sales price and the sales score are added to the price and the score corresponding to the department code of the registered product in the department-specific sales memory 32. Note that the sales number of the registered product is the multiplier when the multiplier is set by the numeric key of the keyboard 9 immediately before the input of the product code, and is “1” when the multiplier is not set.
[0019]
Next, in ST6, the CPU 1 adds the sales amount of the registered product to the transaction total unit 35. In ST7, the transaction product buffer 33 is searched to determine whether or not the product code of the registered product is stored. If not stored here (NO in ST8), the product code, product name, sales price, and number of sales of the registered product are stored in the transaction product buffer 33 as one record in ST9. On the other hand, if the product code of the registered product is stored (YES in ST8), the sales amount of the registered product and the amount corresponding to the same product code as the registered product in the transaction product buffer 33 as ST10 and the point Points are added (amount summation means for each product).
Thereafter, if the purchase point counter 34 is counted up by the number of sales points of the registered product in ST11, the current product code input process is terminated.
[0020]
Further, in the POS terminal, when the deposit / cash key K1 is operated and input in the state where the “registration” mode is selected, the CPU 1 starts the deposit / cash key input process shown in the flowchart of FIG. The program is configured.
That is, when starting the deposit / cash total key input process, the CPU 1 first determines whether or not the registering flag is set in the flag memory 36 as ST1. If it is set here, since the purchased product of one transaction is registered and the registration end is declared, the registration flag is reset (0) as ST2 and the tightening flag is set in the flag memory 37 (1 )
[0021]
Next, in step ST3, the CPU 1 calculates the change amount by subtracting the total amount of the transaction total unit 35 from the deposit amount, and displays the change amount on the display 11. The deposit amount is the amount in the case where the amount has been entered with the numeric key immediately before the input of the deposit / actual key K1, and the amount in the transaction totaling unit 35 if it has not been entered. .
After that, the receipt print data is edited with the product name, amount and points of each purchased product stored in the transaction product buffer 33, the total amount and change amount of the transaction total 35, and supplied to the printer 13 for receipt. Is issued. If the drawer is released by outputting a drive signal to the drawer opening device 7, the deposit / cash key input process is terminated.
If the registering flag has been reset in ST1, the key operation error is notified because the deposit / cash key K1 is operated incorrectly before the purchased product for one transaction is registered.
[0022]
Further, the POS terminal has a program configured such that when the receipt key K2 is operated and input in the state where the “registration” mode is selected, the CPU 1 starts the receipt key input process shown in the flowchart of FIG. Yes.
That is, when starting the receipt key input process, the CPU 1 first determines whether or not the tightening flag is set in the flag memory 37 as ST1. If it is set here, since issuance of a receipt is instructed after the completion of product registration for one transaction, the amount data NNNNN of the transaction total 35 is set in the amount area of the receipt memory 39 as ST2. Further, the current date data YYYYMMDD measured by the clock unit 4 is read as ST3 and set in the date area of the receipt memory 39.
[0023]
Next, the CPU 1 compares the amount data of each record stored in the transaction product buffer 33 as ST4, and detects the record with the largest amount. When there are a plurality of records having the largest amount, a record close to the head area of the transaction product buffer 33 is detected (code detection means). If the record with the largest amount is detected, the product name data XXXX of the record is set in the product name area of the receipt memory 39. In ST6, the count value NN of the purchase point counter 34 is set in the point area of the receipt memory 39.
[0024]
When the money amount, date, product name, and point data are set in the receipt memory 39 in this way, the format data of the receipt 40 stored in the receipt form memory 38 is read as ST7, and the format data and the receipt memory 39 are read. The receipt print data is edited based on each data. Specifically, the current date data YYYYMMDD set in the date area of the receipt memory 39 is edited so that “YYYY MM month DD day” is printed in the date field 42. Further, the amount data NNNNNN of the transaction total set 35 set in the amount area of the receipt memory 39 is edited so that “NNNNNN Yen” is printed in the amount column 44. Further, the product name data XXXXXX set in the product name area of the receipt memory 39 and the purchase point data NN set in the score area are printed in the product name column 45 as “product price of XXXXXX other total NN points”. To edit. The title column 41 is edited so that a fixed title name “receipt” is printed, and the issuer column 46 is edited so that a fixed issuer name “super xx store” is printed. The characters in each column are edited so that they are printed as characters rotated 90 degrees in the same direction with respect to the transport direction of the receipt paper. Thereafter, in step ST8, the receipt print data is supplied to the printer 13 and the receipt 40 is printed and issued (receipt issuing means).
[0025]
Thereafter, if the closing flag of the flag memory 37 is reset (0) in ST9, the current receipt key input process is terminated.
If the tightening flag is reset in ST1, the key operation error is notified because the receipt key K2 is operated incorrectly before the purchase merchandise registration for one transaction is completed.
[0026]
In the first embodiment configured as described above, when the cashier reads the bar code attached to the product purchased by the shopper using the scanner 15 one by one, the product purchased by the shopper The sales amount is summed by the transaction totalizer 35. Further, the sales points of the purchased products are counted by the purchase point counter 34. Furthermore, the sales amount of the purchased product is aggregated by product code by the transaction product buffer 33.
[0027]
Thereafter, when the cashier counts the deposit amount from the shopper and then presses the deposit / cash key K1 to declare the end of product registration for one transaction, the change amount is calculated and a receipt is issued.
Here, when the shopper requests to issue a receipt, the cashier presses the receipt key K2. Then, the product code having the largest amount is detected among the amounts collected by the product code by the transaction product buffer 33. Then, the product name set and stored in the product information file 31 corresponding to this product code is printed in the product name and score field 45 together with the registration score counted by the purchase score counter 34, and also in the transaction total counter 35. The calculated total amount is printed in the amount column 44, and a receipt 40 is automatically issued with the current date timed by the clock unit 4 printed in the date column 42.
[0028]
For example, now (March 1, 1998), a product name [shampoo] with a unit price of 800 yen, a product name [milled rice] with a unit price of 3000 yen, a product name [milk] with a unit price of 200 yen, and a unit price of 1500 yen If a customer who purchased a product name [Bath Towel] and a product name [Weekly Magazine] with a unit price of 500 yen each applies for the issuance of a receipt, the price of the product name [Rice Rice] is the largest. As shown in the figure, the receipt 40 is automatically printed with a total amount of 6000 yen in the amount column 44 and automatically printed with a comment “As a price of 5 other items for rice milling” in the item name and score column 45. publish.
[0029]
Accordingly, the customer can confirm that the receipt 40 is a receipt issued in a transaction in which a total of five items including rice milling have been purchased by checking the product name of the receipt 40 and the comment printed in the score field 45 at any time.
In addition, since the cashier does not have to enter the product name in the product name and points column 45 of the receipt, the work load is reduced and the accounting time with the customer who applied for the receipt can be shortened and the processing efficiency is improved. obtain.
[0030]
Next, a second embodiment corresponding to the invention described in claims 3 and 4 will be described with reference to FIGS.

The description will be continued on the assumption that the horizontally long receipt 40 is issued.
[0031]
In the POS terminal according to the second embodiment, the product code (bar code) of the purchased product is read and inputted by the scanner 15 as the product registration means in a state where the “registration” mode is selected by the mode switch 6. Then, the program is configured so that the CPU 1 starts the product code input process shown in the flowchart of FIG.
That is, when the product code input process is started, the CPU 1 first determines whether or not a registration flag is set in the flag memory 36 as ST1. If it is not set here, since the first purchased product in one transaction is registered, the transaction product buffer 33, the purchase point counter 34 and the transaction total counter 35 are cleared as ST2. In ST3, a registering flag is set (1) in the flag memory 36. If the tightening flag is set in the flag memory 37, the flag memory 37 is reset (0). On the other hand, when the registering flag is set in ST1, since the second and subsequent purchased products in one transaction are registered, the processes of ST2 and ST3 are not performed.
[0032]
Next, in step ST4, the CPU 1 searches the product information file 31 and reads the department code, product name, and unit price corresponding to the product code of the registered product. In ST5, the sales price is calculated by multiplying the unit price by the sales score of the registered product, and the sales price and the sales score are added to the price and the score corresponding to the department code of the registered product in the department-specific sales memory 32. Note that the sales number of the registered product is the multiplier when the multiplier is set by the numeric key of the keyboard 9 immediately before the input of the product code, and is “1” when the multiplier is not set.
[0033]
Next, in ST6, the CPU 1 adds the sales amount of the registered product to the transaction total unit 35. In ST7, the transaction product buffer 33 is searched to determine whether the department code of the registered product is stored. If it is not stored here (NO in ST8), the department code, department name, sales price, and sales point of the registered product are stored in the transaction product buffer 33 as one record in ST9. On the other hand, if the department code of the registered product is stored (YES in ST8), the sales amount of the registered product and the amount corresponding to the same department code as the registered product in the transaction product buffer 33 as ST10, Points are added (division summation means by department).
Thereafter, if the purchase point counter 34 is counted up by the number of sales points of the registered product in ST11, the current product code input process is terminated.
[0034]
Further, in this POS terminal, when the deposit / cash key K1 is operated and input in a state where the “registration” mode is selected, the CPU 1 performs the deposit shown in the flowchart of FIG. 6 as in the first embodiment. / The program is configured to start the current key input process.
[0035]
Further, the POS terminal has a program configured such that when the receipt key K2 is operated and input in a state where the “registration” mode is selected, the CPU 1 starts the receipt key input process shown in the flowchart of FIG. Yes.
That is, when starting the receipt key input process, the CPU 1 first determines whether or not the tightening flag is set in the flag memory 37 as ST1. If it is set here, since issuance of a receipt is instructed after the completion of product registration for one transaction, the amount data NNNNN of the transaction total 35 is set in the amount area of the receipt memory 39 as ST2. Further, the current date data YYYYMMDD measured by the clock unit 4 is read as ST3 and set in the date area of the receipt memory 39.
[0036]
Next, the CPU 1 compares the amount data of each record stored in the transaction product buffer 33 as ST4, and detects the record with the largest amount. When there are a plurality of records having the largest amount, a record close to the head area of the transaction product buffer 33 is detected (code detection means). If the record with the largest amount is detected, the department name data XXXX of the record is set in the product name area of the receipt memory 39. In ST6, the count value NN of the purchase point counter 34 is set in the point area of the receipt memory 39.
[0037]
When the money amount, date, product name, and point data are set in the receipt memory 39 in this way, the format data of the receipt 40 stored in the receipt form memory 38 is read as ST7, and the format data and the receipt memory 39 are read. The receipt print data is edited based on each data. Specifically, the current date data YYYYMMDD set in the date area of the receipt memory 39 is edited so that “YYYY MM month DD day” is printed in the date field 42. Further, the amount data NNNNNN of the transaction total set 35 set in the amount area of the receipt memory 39 is edited so that “NNNNNN Yen” is printed in the amount column 44. Further, the department name data XXXX set in the product name area of the receipt memory 39 and the purchase score data NN set in the score area are printed in the product name column 45 as “product price of XXXXXX other total NN points”. To edit. The title column 41 is edited so that a fixed title name “receipt” is printed, and the issuer column 46 is edited so that a fixed issuer name “super xx store” is printed. The characters in each column are edited so that they are printed as characters rotated 90 degrees in the same direction with respect to the transport direction of the receipt paper. Thereafter, in step ST8, the receipt print data is supplied to the printer 13 and the receipt 40 is printed and issued (receipt issuing means).
[0038]
Thereafter, if the closing flag of the flag memory 37 is reset (0) in ST9, the current receipt key input process is terminated.
If the tightening flag is reset in ST1, the key operation error is notified because the receipt key K2 is operated incorrectly before the purchase merchandise registration for one transaction is completed.
[0039]
In the second embodiment configured as described above, when the cashier reads the bar code attached to the product purchased by the shopper using the scanner 15 one by one, the product purchased by the shopper The sales amount is summed by the transaction totalizer 35. Further, the sales points of the purchased products are counted by the purchase point counter 34. Further, the sales amount of the purchased product is aggregated by the department code by the transaction product buffer 33.
[0040]
Thereafter, when the cashier counts the deposit amount from the shopper and then presses the deposit / cash key K1 to declare the end of product registration for one transaction, the change amount is calculated and a receipt is issued.
Here, when the shopper requests to issue a receipt, the cashier presses the receipt key K2. Then, the department code having the largest amount is detected among the amounts collected by the department code by the transaction product buffer 33. Then, the department name set and stored in the department-specific sales memory 32 corresponding to the department code is printed in the product name / score column 45 together with the registered points counted by the purchase point counter 34, and is also displayed in the transaction total counter 35. The total amount calculated in this way is printed in the amount column 44, and the receipt 40 in which the current date timed by the clock unit 4 is printed in the date column 42 is automatically issued.
[0041]
For example, now (March 1, 1998), the product name [shampoo] belonging to the department code [02: miscellaneous goods] at a unit price of 800 yen, and the product name [milled rice] belonging to the department code [01: food] at a unit price of 3000 yen. ], The product name [milk] belonging to the department code [01: Food] at a unit price of 200 yen, the product name [bath towel] belonging to the department code [02: miscellaneous goods] at a unit price of 1500 yen, and the department code at a unit price of 500 yen. As shown in FIG. 10, when a customer who purchases one item name [weekly magazine] belonging to [04: book] offers to issue a receipt, the amount of the department code [12: food] is the maximum. In addition, a receipt 40 is automatically printed with the total amount of 6000 yen printed in the amount column 44 and the comment “As a price for five other items of food” automatically printed in the item name and score column 45. .
[0042]
Therefore, the customer can confirm that the receipt 40 is a receipt issued in a transaction in which a total of five items including food are purchased by checking the item name of the receipt 40 and the comment printed in the score column 45 at any time.
In addition, since the cashier does not have to enter the product name in the product name and points column 45 of the receipt, the work load is reduced and the accounting time with the customer who applied for the receipt can be shortened and the processing efficiency is improved. obtain.
[0043]
In the first and second embodiments, when there are a plurality of records having the same amount totaled for each product code or department code, the record closer to the head area of the transaction product buffer 33, that is, the first record. The product code or department code registered in is selected and the corresponding name is printed in the product name and score column 45 of the receipt 40, but the record closer to the final area, that is, the product code or department code registered later is selected. The corresponding name may be printed in the product name and score column 45 of the receipt 40. Further, when there are about two records having the same amount, the corresponding two kinds of names may be printed on the product name and score column 45 and the receipt 40 may be issued.
[0044]
In addition, the printing format in the product name column is “XXXX as other product price of NN points other than XXXXXX” when the product name data XXXXXX and the purchase point data NN, but is not limited to this.
