If the value is "1" or more, the process returns to ST2, and the process from ST2 onward is performed again on the commodity order data. If the repetition counter A is "0" in ST7, it is determined in ST8 whether the next product order data exists in the received message. If there is, the process returns to ST1 to acquire the next product order data (product code, accessory code, order quantity, order time) in the received message. Then, the order quantity is set as the initial value of the counter A repeatedly. Hereinafter, the processing after ST2 is repeated. When the above-described processing has been performed on all the product order data in the received message, a cooking screen updating process described later is performed, and the process ends.

When the CPU 62 receives the additional cooking instruction message in the format shown in FIG. 9B, the process proceeds to ST9 in FIG. 17, and the first additional order data (commodity code, additional code, (Additional quantity, order time). Then, the additional quantity is set as the initial value of the repetition counter A. Next, in ST10, the cooking instruction data table 83 is searched by the table number in the received message. As a result, when the table number in the received message is detected from the cooking instruction data table 83, the counter P is set to "1" in ST11 because it is an additional order from a customer who has not completed cooking of the ordered food item. After counting up, the data below the last data of the same table number in the cooking instruction data table 83 is shifted downward by one address in ST12. Thereafter, in ST13, the table number in the received message and the product code, additional code, and order time of the additional order data acquired from the received message are stored in the next address of the final data of the same table number in the cooking instruction data table 83. Store. The category is “2” indicating an additional item.

If the table number in the received message cannot be detected from the cooking instruction data table 83 in ST10,
Since it is an additional order from a customer who has already completed cooking of the ordered food item, the cooking instruction data (table number, product code, auxiliary code, order time, classification) stored in the additional cooking instruction data table 84 as ST14. After counting up the counter Q for counting the number of data of "1" by "1",
In ST15, the additional cooking instruction data table 84 is searched by the table number in the received message. As a result, when the table number in the received message is detected from the additional cooking instruction data table 84, the additional cooking instruction data table 8 is determined as ST16.
The data below the last data of the same table number in No. 4 is shifted downward by one address. After a while, ST17
In the additional cooking instruction data table 84, the table number in the received message, the product code of the additional order data acquired from the received message, the accompanying code, and the order time are stored in the address next to the last data of the same table number. The category is “2” indicating an additional item.

If the table number in the received message cannot be detected from the additional cooking instruction data table 84 in ST15, the same reception as the table number in the received message is made at the address Q of the additional cooking instruction data table 84 in ST18. Store the product code, additional code, and order time of the additional order data acquired from the message. The category is “2” indicating an additional item.

After completing any one of the above-mentioned steps ST13, ST17 and ST18, it is determined whether or not the product code of the product order data obtained from the received message is set in the fixed item quantity table 85 in step ST19. Judge. If the item is set, the item is a fixed item indicating the required number of items to be cooked.
The required cooking quantity data corresponding to the product code in the fixed item quantity table 85 is added by one. If the dish item is not a fixed item, the process of ST20 is not performed.

Next, in step ST21, the repetition counter A is counted down by "1", and in step ST22, it is determined whether or not the repetition counter A has become "0".
If the value is "1" or more, the process returns to ST10, and the processes after ST10 are performed again on the additional order data.
If the repetition counter A is "0" in ST22,
At T23, it is determined whether or not the next additional order data exists in the received message. And if it exists, ST9
And the next additional order data (product code, additional code, additional quantity, order time) in the received message is acquired. Then, the additional quantity is set as the initial value of the repetition counter A. Hereinafter, the processes after ST10 are repeated. When the above-described processing has been performed for all the additional order data in the received message, a cooking screen update processing described later is performed, and this processing ends.

When the CPU 62 receives the cooking cancellation instruction message in the format shown in FIG. 9C, the process proceeds to ST24 in FIG. 18, and the first canceled item data (commodity code, supplementary code, (Canceled quantity). Then, the cancellation quantity is set as the initial value of the counter A repeatedly. Next, in ST25, the cooking instruction data table 83 is searched by the table number in the received message and the product code of the canceled item data acquired from the received message. As a result, when cooking instruction data in which the table number and the product code match the search code are detected from the cooking instruction data table 83, the data is the cooking instruction data of the canceled item, so that the classification of the cooking instruction data is performed in ST26. Is changed to “3” indicating the item to be canceled.

In step ST25, the data in which the table number and the product code match the search code are stored in the cooking instruction data table 83.
If it is not detected, the additional cooking instruction data table 84 is searched with a similar search code in ST27. As a result, the cooking instruction data whose table number and product code match the search code are added to the additional cooking instruction data table 8.
If the data is detected from No. 4, since the data is the cooking instruction data of the canceled item, the process proceeds to ST26, and the classification of the cooking instruction data is changed to “3” indicating the canceled item.

Thereafter, in ST28, it is determined whether or not the product code of the product order data obtained from the received message is set in the fixed item quantity table 85. When the item is set, the cooking item is a fixed item indicating the required number of cooking items, and therefore, 1 is subtracted from the required cooking number data corresponding to the product code in the fixed item quantity table 85 in ST29. If the dish item is not a fixed item, the process of ST29 is not performed.

Next, in step ST30, the repetition counter A is counted down by "1", and in step ST31, it is determined whether or not the repetition counter A has become "0".
If the value is "1" or more, the process returns to ST25, and the processing after ST25 is performed again on the canceled item data.
If the repetition counter A is "0" in ST31,
At T32, it is determined whether or not the next canceled item data exists in the received message. And if it exists, ST2
Then, the process returns to step 8 to acquire the next cancellation item data (commodity code, additional code, cancellation quantity) in the received message. Then, the cancellation quantity is set as the initial value of the counter A repeatedly. Hereinafter, ST2
The processing after 5 is repeated.

When the above-described processing has been executed for all the canceled item data in the received message, a cooking screen update processing described later is executed, and this processing ends. If no data whose table number and product code match the search code can be detected from the additional cooking instruction data table 84 in ST27, there is no canceled item, and the process proceeds to ST32.

FIG. 19 shows processing when a function key [input] 75f displayed on the cooking screen 70 is touch-operated. The CPU 62 sends a touch input position coordinate signal (6, 7) to the touch panel interface 68.
Is detected, the key code KFC6 of the coordinates (6, 7) in the matrix coordinate table 87c is detected.
(Key code of the input key) is obtained, and the input key processing shown in the flowchart of FIG. 19 is started.

First, as ST1, a touch input position coordinate signal indicates whether or not any one of the cooking instruction area 71 and the additional cooking instruction areas 73a and 73b on the cooking screen 70 has been touched immediately before. It is determined from the touch input position coordinate signal input to the touch panel interface 68 immediately before (6, 7). And (1,
1) to (6, 6) or (7, 1), (7, 2),
If the touch input position coordinate signal of any of (8, 1) and (8, 2) has been input, the dish item indicated by the graphic data in the frame surrounding the touch position has been designated. The touch input position coordinate signal is (1, 1) as ST2.
To (6, 6), the matrix coordinate table 8
7a is searched, and the area of the input coordinates and the cooking screen 7 are searched.
Address P of cooking instruction data table 83 corresponding to page 0
Is obtained, and the section of the cooking instruction data corresponding to the address P is checked. When the touch input position coordinate signal is any of (7, 1), (7, 2), (8, 1), and (8, 2), the matrix coordinate table 87b is searched and the input coordinates are searched. And the address Q of the additional cooking instruction data table 84 corresponding to the page of the cooking screen 70 in the area of
The section of the cooking instruction data corresponding to the address Q is checked.

As a result, when the category of the cooking instruction data is “1” or “2”, the completion of cooking of the cooking item corresponding to the cooking instruction data is designated, and thus ST3 is completed.
Is changed to “0”. In step ST4, a cooking completion message shown in FIG. 9D is created using the table number, product code, and supplementary code of the cooking instruction data, and LA
The data is transmitted from the N interface 66 to the order management controller 3 through the LAN line 8. Further, as ST5, it is determined whether or not the product code of the cooking instruction data is set in the fixed item quantity table 85. If the item is set, the cooking item is a fixed item indicating the required cooking number, so 1 is subtracted from the required cooking data corresponding to the product code in the fixed item quantity table 85 in ST6. If the dish item is not a fixed item, the process of ST6 is not performed.

On the other hand, the category of the cooking instruction data is “3”.
In the case of, since the dish item corresponding to the cooking instruction data has already been canceled and its confirmation has been made, the classification is changed to “0” in ST7. In addition, when the section of the cooking instruction data is “0”, and the matrix coordinate table 8
If the address is not stored in the area corresponding to the input coordinates of 7a or 86b and the page of the cooking screen 70, the designation of the product is invalid, and this processing is ended.

When the processing of ST5, ST6 or ST7 is completed, next, in ST8, if the cooking instruction data is data corresponding to the address P, the cooking instruction data table 83 is searched by the table number of the data. Check the data division of the same table number. If the cooking instruction data is data corresponding to the address Q, the additional cooking instruction data table 84 is searched to check the division of data having the same table number. As a result, if there is at least one piece of data having a category other than “0” in the cooking instruction data having the same table number, one customer has not completed cooking of the ordered food item, and will be described later. Then, a cooking screen update process is performed, and the process ends.

On the other hand, if the section of the cooking instruction data of the same table number is all "0", since one customer has completed cooking of the ordered cooking item, the cooking instruction data is stored in the address P in ST9. If it is the corresponding data, all the data of the same table number is deleted from the cooking instruction data table 83, and the remaining data of this table 83 is sequentially shifted to the upper address (smaller numerical value side).
Is subtracted by the number of data from which. If the cooking instruction data is data corresponding to the address Q, all data having the same table number is deleted from the additional cooking instruction data table 84, and the remaining data in the table 84 is sequentially stored in the upper address (the smaller address). ), And the counter Q is subtracted by the number of deleted data. Thereafter, a cooking screen update process described later is executed, and this process ends.

FIG. 20 shows processing when the function key [pause] 75d displayed on the cooking screen 70 is touch-operated, and the CPU 62 sends a touch input position coordinate signal (4, 7) to the touch panel interface 68.
Is detected, the key code KFC4 of the coordinates (4, 7) in the matrix coordinate table 87c is detected.
(Key code of the pause key) is obtained, and the input key processing shown in the flowchart of FIG. 20 is started.

First, at ST1, the screen of the color display 60 is switched from the cooking screen 70 to the rest screen 90 shown in FIG. 26, and at ST2, the input from the touch panel interface 68 is invalidated to inhibit the input on the touch panel 61. I do. Next, the timer counter t is set to the initial value "30" in ST3, and the value of the timer counter t is displayed as the remaining time on the pause screen 90 in ST4.

Thereafter, every time one second elapses, the timer counter t is counted down by "1" at step ST5, and the value of the timer counter t is displayed on the pause screen 90 as the remaining time each time. Then, when the count value of the timer counter t reaches "10" in ST6, the buzzer 69 sounds for several seconds. When the count value of the timer counter t reaches "0" in ST7, the input from the touch panel interface 68 is enabled in ST8 to release the input prohibition state of the touch panel 61. Further, the screen of the color display 60 is returned to the cooking screen 70 by executing the cooking screen update processing described later, and this processing ends.

The cooking screen updating process is executed according to the procedure shown in FIG. That is, first, as initialization of the cooking screen editing memory 86, the matrix coordinate area of each frame of the cooking instruction area 71, the number area of each frame of the table number area 72, and the frames of the additional cooking instruction areas 73a and 73b. The number area, the matrix coordinate area, and the matrix coordinate area and the quantity area of each fixed item quantity area 74a to 74d are cleared.

Next, the fixed item quantity area editing process specifically shown in FIG. 22 is started. First, as ST1, the read address counter r, row counter m, and column counter n are set to "0". Next, after reading address counter r and column counter n are each incremented by "1" in step ST2, the commodity code and cooking required number data of address r are read from fixed item quantity data table 85 in step ST3.

Next, as ST4, the graphic data corresponding to the product code at the address r read from the fixed item quantity data table 85 is read from the graphic data table 81, and the matrix coordinate area of the first page in the cooking screen editing memory 86 ( m, n). In step ST5, the required cooking data at address r read from the fixed item quantity data table 84 is stored in the quantity area [n] on the first page in the cooking screen editing memory 86.

Thereafter, as ST6, it is determined whether or not the read address counter r has exceeded the number "4" of the fixed item quantity areas 74a to 74d. If not, the process returns to ST2 and repeats the processes of ST2 to ST5.
If the read address counter r has exceeded "4" in ST6, the fixed item quantity area editing processing ends.

In the cooking screen updating process, after the fixed item quantity area editing process is completed, the cooking instruction area editing process specifically shown in FIG. 23 is started. First, S
As T1, the read address counter r, the row counter m, and the column counter n are set to "0", and the page counter g is set to "1". Next, as ST2, the read address counter r is incremented by "1", and then the cooking instruction data at address r is read from the cooking instruction data table 83. Then, in the case of the cooking instruction data at address 1 and in the case of reading data in which the table number does not match the cooking instruction data read immediately before, the row counter m is counted up by "1" in ST3, and the column counter n is incremented. Set to “1”. At this time, if the row counter m exceeds "5", ST4
To increment the page counter g by "1" and return the row counter m to "1". Thereafter, as ST5, the table number of the cooking instruction data at the address r read from the cooking instruction data table 83 is stored in the table number area [m] in the editing memory 86. In ST6, the address data r is stored in the matrix coordinate (m, n) area of the g-th page of the matrix coordinate table 87a corresponding to the cooking instruction area 71.

On the other hand, the cooking instruction data table 83
If the table number of the cooking instruction data at the address r read from the table matches the table number of the cooking instruction data read immediately before,
In ST7, the column counter n is counted up by "1". At this time, if the column counter n exceeds "6", the row counter m is counted up by "1" in ST8, and the column counter n is returned to "1". At this time, if the row counter m exceeds “5”, the page counter g is counted up by “1” in ST9, and the row counter m is incremented.
To “1”. Thereafter, the process proceeds to ST6, where the address data r is stored in the matrix coordinate (m, n) area of the g page of the matrix coordinate table 87a corresponding to the cooking instruction area 71.

Thereafter, as ST10, the cooking instruction image creation process specifically shown in FIG. 25 is started. That is, the graphic data corresponding to the product code of the cooking instruction data at the address r read from the cooking instruction data table 83 is read from the graphic data table 81, and the matrix coordinate area (m, n) on page g in the cooking screen editing memory 86 is read. ). Next, the additional code of the cooking instruction data at the address r is checked. If the supplementary code is "00", the food item has no supplementary information, and the process proceeds to ST91.

If the supplementary code is other than "00", the supplementary mark corresponding to the supplementary code is read from the supplementary mark table 82 and stored in the same matrix coordinate area (m, n) of the cooking screen editing memory 86. . Next, it is determined whether or not the supplementary code is “02”. When the supplementary code is "02", the supplementary information "late delivery" is designated, and the order time of the cooking instruction data at the address r is delayed by a predetermined time T (for example, 10 minutes). If the supplementary code is other than “02”, the order time is left as it is. Thereafter, the process proceeds to ST91.

In ST91, the waiting time X is calculated from the difference between the current time measured by the clock section 65 and the order time of the cooking completion data at address r. Then, the waiting time X is shorter than the first set time X1 (for example, 10 minutes) or is equal to or longer than the first set time X1 and the second set time X2 (for example, 20 minutes).
Minutes) or longer than the second set time X2. When the time is equal to or longer than the first set time X1 and shorter than the second set time X2, the predetermined attention mark is stored in the same matrix coordinate area (m, n) of the cooking screen editing memory 86. When the time is equal to or longer than the second set time X2, a predetermined warning mark is stored in the same matrix coordinate area (m, n) of the cooking screen editing memory 86.

Thereafter, the division of the cooking completion data at address r is checked. When the classification is “2” (additional item), a predetermined additional mark (for example, “addition”) is stored in the same matrix coordinate area of the cooking screen editing memory 86, and when the classification is “3” (cancellation item). Stores a cancellation mark (for example, "Erase"), and if "0" (cooked), stores a cooking completion mark (for example, "X").

When the cooking instruction image creation processing is completed in this way, the process returns to ST2 in FIG. 23, where the read address counter r is incremented by "1", and the cooking instruction data at address r is read from the cooking instruction data table 83. Read and repeat the same process. In this way, each time the cooking instruction data at address r is read from the cooking instruction data table 83, the same processing is repeatedly executed. When the cooking instruction data no longer exists at address r, the cooking instruction area editing processing ends. .

When the cooking instruction area editing processing is completed in the cooking screen updating processing, the additional cooking instruction area editing processing specifically shown in FIG. 24 is started. First, S
As T1, the read address counter r and the column counter n are set to "0", the row counter m is set to "5", and the page counter g is set to "1". Next, as ST2, the read address counter r is counted up by "1",
The cooking instruction data at address r is read from the additional cooking instruction data table 84. Then, in the case of the cooking instruction data at address 1 and in the case of reading data in which the table number does not match the cooking instruction data read immediately before, the row counter m is counted up by "1" in ST3, and the column counter n is incremented. Set to “1”. At this time, if the row counter m exceeds "7", the page counter g is counted up by "1" in ST4, and the row counter m is returned to "6". Thereafter, as ST5, the additional cooking instruction data table 84
Is stored in the table number area [m] in the editing memory 86. Further, as ST6, the address data r is stored in the matrix coordinate (m, n) area of the g-th page of the matrix coordinate table 87b corresponding to the additional cooking instruction area 72.

On the other hand, when the table number of the cooking instruction data at the address r read from the additional cooking instruction data table 84 matches the table number of the cooking instruction data read immediately before, the column counter n is set to "ST7". Count up by 1 ". At this time, if the column counter n exceeds "2", the row counter m is counted up by "1" in ST8, and the column counter n is returned to "1". At this time,
If the row counter m exceeds "7", the page counter g is counted up by "1" in ST9, and the row counter m is returned to "6". Thereafter, the process proceeds to ST6, where the address data r is stored in the matrix coordinate (m, n) area on the g page of the matrix coordinate table 87b corresponding to the additional cooking instruction area 72.

Thereafter, as ST10, the same processing as the above-described cooking instruction image creation processing is performed.
The process is executed with respect to the cooking instruction data at address r read from step No. 4. However, even when the category of the cooking instruction data is “2”, the additional mark “Add” is not stored. When the cooking instruction image creation processing is completed, the process returns to ST2 in FIG. 24, and after the read address counter r is counted up by “1”, the cooking instruction data of the address r is read from the additional cooking instruction data table 84 and the same. Is repeated. In this way, each time the cooking instruction data at the address r is read from the additional cooking instruction data table 84, the same processing is repeatedly executed. When the cooking instruction data no longer exists at the address r, the additional cooking instruction area editing processing is performed. finish.

In the cooking screen updating process shown in FIG.
When the additional cooking instruction area editing process is completed,
The color display 6 based on the data stored in the first page area 86a of the cooking screen editing memory 86, respectively.
At 0, the first page image of the cooking screen 70 is displayed. In addition, in the case of the cooking screen updating process after receiving the cooking instruction data, the buzzer 69 is sounded for a certain period of time to notify that a food item has been ordered. Thus, the cooking screen updating process ends.

As described above, in the order management system of the present embodiment, when the order data of the food item ordered by the new customer is input from the handy terminal 1 together with the table number of the customer, the product order data ( A new cooking instruction message including a product code, an accessory code, an order quantity, an order time) and a table number is transmitted from the order management controller 3 to the display device 6 for the kitchen. In the display device 6 for the kitchen,
Cooking instruction data (table number,
The product code, the supplementary code, the order time, and the section) are stored in the cooking instruction data table 83 in the order in which the order is received. Here, when a plurality of the same items are ordered, the same cooking instruction data is stored in the cooking instruction data table 83 by the quantity. In addition, when there is a dish item of the commodity code preset in the fixed item quantity table 85 among the ordered dish items, the required cooking number of the dish item is added by the order quantity. Thereafter, a cooking screen update process is executed.

Thus, the cooking instruction data table 83
The product code and required cooking data set in
The addresses are sequentially read from the address, and the matrix coordinate area (0, 1) of the first page area 86a in the cooking screen editing memory 86 is referred to.
The graphic data corresponding to the product code is sequentially stored at (0, 4), and the required cooking data corresponding to the quantity areas [1] to [4] of the area 85a is stored.

The cooking instruction data stored in the cooking instruction data table 83 is read out sequentially from address 1,
First page area 86a in cooking screen editing memory 86
In the matrix coordinate areas (1, 1) to (5, 6), graphic data corresponding to the product code in the cooking instruction data and additional marks corresponding to the additional codes are sequentially stored. When the elapsed time from the order time is X1 minutes or more and less than X2 minutes, a caution mark is stored, and when the elapsed time exceeds X2 minutes, a warning mark is stored. In this case, each time the table number of the cooking instruction data is different, the row of the matrix coordinate area is updated.

Similarly, the additional cooking instruction data stored in the additional cooking instruction data table 84 is sequentially read from address 1, and the matrix coordinate area (7, 7) of the first page area 86a in the cooking screen editing memory 86 is read. 1) to (8,
In 2), the graphic data corresponding to the product code and the accessory mark corresponding to the accessory code in the additional cooking instruction data are sequentially stored. When the elapsed time from the order time is X1 minutes or more and less than X2 minutes, a caution mark is stored, and when the elapsed time exceeds X2 minutes, a warning mark is stored.
In this case, each time the table number of the cooking instruction data is different, the row of the matrix coordinate area is updated.

Thereafter, the cooking screen editing memory 86 is prepared.
The cooking screen 70 is edited based on the stored contents of the first page area 86a in the above, and is displayed on the color display 60. As a result, in the cooking instruction area 71 of the cooking screen 70, graphic data representing the food item ordered by the customer this time is added for each customer so that the order of the food items is in order of receiving the order. When additional information such as advance delivery, later delivery, and take-out is added to the dish, a mark indicating the additional information is displayed in a frame surrounding the graphic data of the dish. Further, this cooking item is displayed in the fixed item quantity area 74.
In the case of the fixed items indicated by a to 74d, the required cooking number of the fixed item is increased by the order quantity. At this time, the buzzer 69 sounds for a certain period of time to notify that the food item has been ordered.

For example, the cooking screen 70 shown in FIG.
Is displayed, and a new customer arriving at the table number A1 orders two dishes “shoyu ramen” and two dishes “gyoza”, the table number area 72 is displayed.
The table number A1 is displayed on the fifth line, and two pieces of graphic data of the food items "soy sauce ramen" and "gyoza" are displayed on the fifth line and the first to fourth columns of the cooking instruction area 71. Is done. In addition, the required number of cooking items in the fixed item quantity area 74a in which “soy sauce ramen” is displayed is increased from “1” to “3”, and the required number of cooking items in the fixed item quantity area 74d in which “gyoza” is displayed is “4”. "To" 6 ".

When the cancellation of the already ordered goods is instructed from the handy terminal 1, the cooking cancellation instruction message including the canceled item data (commodity code, supplementary code, cancellation quantity) and the table number is stored in the order management. Is transmitted from the kitchen controller 3 to the kitchen display device 6.

In the kitchen display device 6, the cooking instruction data table 83 and the additional cooking instruction data table 84 are provided.
Is searched, and the category of the cooking instruction data corresponding to the canceled item is changed to “3”. When the canceled item is a fixed item, the required cooking amount corresponding to the fixed item in the fixed item quantity table 85 is reduced by the canceled amount. Thereafter, a cooking screen update process is executed. As a result, the cancellation mark “OFF” is displayed in the frame of the graphic data of the cancellation item displayed on the cooking screen 70.

On the other hand, the cook sees the graphic data on the cooking screen 70 displayed on the color display 60 of the kitchen display device 6, grasps the contents of the customer's order, and cooks.
Every time the cooking of the food item is completed, the graphic data of the food item is touched and the function key "input" 75f is touched to give a cooking completion instruction.

Then, the cooking instruction data table 83
Alternatively, the classification of the cooking instruction data of the corresponding cooking item stored in the additional cooking instruction data table 84 is changed to “0”. When the completed cooking item is a fixed item, the required cooking number corresponding to the fixed item in the fixed item quantity table 85 is reduced by the number of completed cooking items. Further, a cooking completion message is transmitted from the kitchen display device 6 to the order management controller 3, and a serving instruction sheet is issued from the printing device 5. Further, when the cooking of the cooking item ordered by the same customer is completed by the current cooking completion instruction operation, the cooking instruction data of the same customer stored in the cooking instruction data table 83 or the additional cooking instruction data table 84 ( The section “0”) is cleared, and the cooking instruction data of the other customers remaining in the tables 83 and 84 is shifted to the higher address.
Thereafter, a cooking screen update process is executed.

As a result, when the cooking of the other food item ordered by the same customer is not completed, the cooking completion mark “×” is displayed so as to overlap the graphic data of the cooking item for which the cooking completion input has been performed. . On the other hand, when the cooking of the food item ordered by the same customer is completed, the table number of the customer and the corresponding graphic data are cleared, and the table number and the graphic data displayed below are sequentially moved upward. Is shifted to

For example, the cooking screen 70 shown in FIG.
Is displayed and the dish item “Soy sauce ramen” is displayed.
Is completed, and two lines in the cooking instruction area 71, 1
When the graphic data “Soy sauce ramen” in the column frame is touched and the function key “input” 75f is touched, the cooking completion mark “×” is displayed on the graphic data “Soy sauce ramen” in the two rows and one column frame. Are superimposed. On the other hand, while the cooking screen 70 shown in FIG. 12A is displayed, the cooking of the cooking item “Shio ramen” is completed, and the graphic data “Shio ramen” in the one-line and two-column frame in the cooking instruction area 71 is displayed. When the touch operation of the function key "input" 75f and the touch operation of the function key "input" 75f are performed, the display of the table number B2 and the display in the frame of the first line of the cooking instruction area 71 are cleared, and the cooking shown in FIG.
