Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a register system, and more particularly to a register system suitably applied to a POS (Point Of Sales) system of a restaurant.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, various types of stores have been provided with a register device for accounting for goods purchased by customers and items eaten and consumed by customers. In a relatively small store, this register device may have a minimum function such as a cash registering function and a receipt issuing function, but for example, a restaurant or a convenience store concluded with a franchise contract In large stores such as stores, supermarkets, department stores, etc., purchase and inventory management of products, marketing of top selling products, management of employee attendance and business performance, management of sales for each store, etc. Therefore, a function for collecting, analyzing, and managing various data for this purpose has been required.

In response to such demands, POS (Point Of Sales: point of sale information) systems have been rapidly developed in recent years. In a register device, various kinds of information related to products in a store are stored in products such as products. Various functions have been added to make it possible to grasp at the point of sale.

For example, the register device has a function of inputting information of a bar code attached to each product or its packaging by connecting to a bar code reader, and a function of connecting to a data storage device called a handy terminal. A function to instantly input and process the data of the items ordered by the customer stored in the above, a function to perform various processes such as calculation and aggregation of these input information, etc. Various processes and management such as sales and inventory management can now be performed.

Along with this, in the register device, for example, data on the working hours of the employees is input, or the above-mentioned handy terminal is individually assigned to each employee, etc. It is now possible to manage attendance and management of business performance such as sales.
Furthermore, the register device is communicably connected to a host computer installed in the store or at the headquarters of each store in order to perform higher-level business analysis and tabulation of sales and the like for each store. A function of transmitting processed data to a host computer has been added.

[0006]

However, in the conventional register device and POS system corresponding to the POS system, from the viewpoint of employee management, for example, the passive purpose of preventing employee fraud has been emphasized. In addition, accurate analysis of employee performance and management and processing functions related to salary distribution have been neglected.

[0007] That is, as described above, the management of the work performance of the employees performed in the POS system is limited to calculating the total amount of sales for each employee, and the salary distribution to each employee. With respect to the basic salary based on working hours, for example, only a allowance according to the total amount of sales was added to the basic salary, and the method of calculating this allowance was very rough. Such a conventional PO
In the S system, as for the business performance of the employee, the result is that the higher the sales amount, the better the performance.

[0008] However, as a result of analysis by the present inventors,
In managing employee performance, it is not enough to conduct such one-sided evaluations, but calculating more accurate and fair numerical data is a plus for each employee and ultimately for the management of each store as a whole. I found out. Hereinafter, the result of the present inventor's analysis of restaurants will be described.

Regarding products (cooking) and the like to be sold in a store, not all products (cooking items) have the same profit rate and cost rate, but a mixture of low and high cost rates. In fact, in the case of restaurants, there is a remarkable difference in the level of the cost ratio between the dishes to be served. That is, in the case of a restaurant, the difference in the profit ratio (cost ratio) for each menu is large, and therefore, even if the sales amount is the same, the profit entering the store greatly varies depending on “what has been sold”.

[0010] Therefore, from the viewpoint of fair pay distribution according to the degree of contribution to the profit of the store, the management of the performance of the employees (order staff) at the restaurant is premised on that How many items were sold? "
Need to be extracted. In addition, as a guideline of the quality of business performance, it is more accurate and fair to evaluate that "a person with a larger profit has better performance" rather than a high or low sales.

[0011] Such guidelines are effective in industries and stores dealing with products, foods, dishes, etc. (hereinafter referred to as "products") having a large difference in cost rates, but this is also absolute. There is no need to modify it as appropriate. For example,
Regarding the sale of products that have fallen below cost, the phenomenon that the more profits are sold, the lower the profit will occur.However, due to passive reasons such as freshness of ingredients, overstock, seasonal epidemic, etc. It is often performed for aggressive strategic reasons such as differentiating from a store, enhancing the image of the store, and increasing customer attraction. Also, some of the products sold at the store are items that the store wants to sell actively (so-called “recommended items”),
There is also a type that depends greatly on the sales ability of an employee (order clerk), such as a type (or a combination product) that the user wants to sell as a set of seeds or more. Therefore, regarding the performance management of employees (order staff), it is necessary to place more importance on the “number of sales units” than on the amount of profits for sales of such products.

The inventor of the present invention calculates, in the POS system, numerical data reflecting such a situation, and obtains an accurate and fair value of the work performance of each employee. It has been found that it is possible to make a fair distribution of salaries to employees, which in turn enables various analyzes and management of management, and contributes to positive purposes such as reducing and reviewing cost costs.

An object of the present invention is to provide a register system capable of calculating numerical data for more objectively and fairly evaluating the work performance of an employee and more accurately performing business management.

The various data stored (registered) in 3 are displayed on the image display unit 12b to confirm the data, and are subjected to processing such as re-input and rewriting (step S11).

Thus, when a menu is added or deleted, the data of the ordered item in the external storage unit 13 is rewritten. Further, when the cost, the list price, the gross profit unit price, and other various items in each order item are changed, the data in the external storage unit 13 is changed. Other data to be changed include, for example, the cost ratio, the stock quantity, data on special items, data on the employee code of each employee, and the like for each order item.

In the register 1 of the embodiment, a data input screen is displayed on the image display section 12b, and the shop owner or the like operates the operation input section 11 on the data input screen to input various data in step S11. It has become. FIG. 5 shows an example of this data input screen.

Here, the "menu item" column in FIG.
All items of the menu set on that day, that is, all order items that can be ordered by the customer in the store on that day are input. In the “cost” column and the “list price” column, a cost amount and a list price (charge) per item (one meal) of each item are input, respectively. In this embodiment, when the cost amount and the list price per item in each item are input, the cost rate (= cost amount / list price (%)) and the gross margin unit price (= list price−cost amount ( Control unit 1)
7 is calculated.

Further, in the “special notes” column, for example, “recommended items” as a signboard item of the store, “promotional items” that the user wants to sell a lot due to a large stock, etc., and “seasonal items” as a seasonal item "Commodity", "combination product" that wants to sell a set of two or more items, etc.
Prior to the start of business, the corresponding item is input by operating the operation input unit 11. In addition, an item of so-called “cost break” in which the cost per meal is higher than the list price is registered in the special notice column based on the calculation result by the control unit 17 described above.

When the data input to the data input screen is completed and a predetermined key of the operation input unit 11 is operated, the control unit 17 updates and rewrites data in the external storage unit 13. Is performed, and each data storage device 2
When the connection is established, the updated data is transmitted to each data storage device 2 (step S12). Here, the data to be transmitted to the data storage device 2 includes at least data on a menu item (order item).

After the store starts operating, register 1
Receives the order data, the identification information of the person in charge of the order, the table number of the customer, etc. from the data storage devices 2 (2a to 2n) as appropriate, and stores these data in the external storage unit 13. Memorize (step S1
3) At the time of accounting, accounting is performed based on the order data and the like received from the data storage device 2 (step S14).

More specifically, in this accounting process, the register 1 calculates the total amount (charge) for the table number or the like of the customer based on the order data received from the data storage device 2. Then, a process of displaying the calculated total amount on the transaction amount display section 12a is performed. In this accounting process, the control unit 17 controls the print unit 14 to
A process of printing a list of the number of each order item and the amount thereof on roll paper and issuing a receipt is performed.

After the store closes, the control unit 17 of the register 1 controls the transmission / reception unit 15 to transmit the data of the day stored in the external storage unit 13 to the host computer 4, and also controls each employee. Data such as grades for each member is created in, for example, a file format, and based on the operation of the operation input unit 11, the data of the grade is appropriately displayed on the image display unit 12.
b, or print on paper by the printer 3 (step S15).

Next, with reference to FIG. 6, an outline of a flow of processing performed in the data storage device 2 before, during, and at the end of a job will be described.

First, in the data storage device 2, an employee (order person) who uses the device prior to the start of work.
Alternatively, by operating the operation input unit 21 by a store owner or the like, the employee code of the employee is input (step S21), and after the processing of step S11 described above,
At the start of the work of the employee using the device, data is transmitted to and received from the register 1 by being inserted into the cartridge section 15a of the register 1 (step S2).
2). At this time, the control unit 24 of the data storage device 2
The transmission / reception unit 24 reads out the employee code from the memory 23.
To the register 1 and control each unit so that the data transmitted from the register 1 in the process of step S12 described above is stored in the memory 23 (step S23).

As a result, the identification information about the orderer who uses the data storage device 2 on that day is transmitted from the data storage device 2 to the register 1.
From the register 1 to the data storage device 2, data on the ordered items of the day is transmitted.

The CPU 25 of the data storage device 2 receives the data on the ordered item by the transmitting / receiving unit 24,
The data is compared with the previous data in the memory 23, and if different from the previous data, the data stored in the memory 23 is rewritten.
Change the key switch assignment as appropriate.

Then, after the order clerk starts work, the order clerk operates the operation input section 21 in accordance with the customer's order and key-inputs data on the order item, thereby storing the data. In device 2,
Data on the order item keyed in is stored in the memory 23 as order data (step S2).
4). In this case, for example, the data about the table or seat number of the customer is also keyed together, and the data about the order item is keyed for each table or seat number.

Subsequently, after the customer places an order or at the time of accounting, the data storage device 2 stores the cartridge 1 of the register 1.
5a, the data storage device 2
CPU 25 of each of the data in the memory 23, that is,
Control is performed to transmit the employee code of the person in charge of the order and order data for each table or seat number to the register 1 (step S25). Here, at the time of checkout of a predetermined customer, the CPU 25 of the data storage device 2 stores the order data corresponding to the table number or seat number stored in the operation memory 23 in the register 1 based on the operation of the operation input unit 21. After the transmission, control is performed to delete the transmitted order data from the memory 23. As a result, data can be input for a new customer who has arrived at the table or seat.

Then, at the end of the work of the employee using the device, the data storage device 2 is inserted into the cartridge section 15a of the register 1 so that the CPU 25 of the data storage device 2 In addition to transmitting and receiving data between them, processing such as erasing the employee code in the memory 23 is performed (step S26).

Next, referring to the flowchart of FIG.
A flow of processing of the entire POS register system according to the embodiment will be described.

In the POS register system according to the embodiment, as described above in step S11, before the start of business, processing such as inputting and updating various data in the external storage unit 13 of the register 1 is first performed. (Step S
31). This processing may be performed in accordance with an instruction transmitted from the host computer 4, for example, for setting a list price, menu items, and the like.

Next, at the start of the work of each order person in charge,
Each order clerk inserts his / her own data storage device 2 into the cartridge section 15a of the register 1 so that the register 1 and each of the data storage devices 2 carried by each order clerk are inserted.
Is transmitted and received between the device and the server (step S3).
2). As a result, data on each menu item of the day is transmitted from the register 1 to the data storage device 2, stored in the memory 23 of the data storage device 2, and stored in the operation input unit 21 for each menu item. The key assignment is determined. On the other hand, from the data storage device 2 to the register 1, the employee code (see step S21) of the employee (order clerk) using the data storage device 2 is transmitted on that day. Then, the control unit 17 of the register 1 stores this time and starts managing the working hours for the order person in charge.

During the work of each order person in charge,
The following steps S33 to S35 are repeatedly performed. That is, step S33
According to the order of the customer, the key input operation of the operation input unit 21 is performed in the data storage device 2 carried by the person in charge of order of the customer, so that the item ordered by the customer is stored in the memory 23. (See step S24). Subsequently, as described above in step S25, the data storage device 2 is appropriately inserted into the cartridge unit 15a of the register 1 after the order of the customer or at the time of checkout,
Of the data in the data storage device 2 carried by the order clerk of the customer, order data on the table or seat number at which the customer arrived is transmitted to the register 1 together with the employee code (step S34). At the time of accounting, the register 1 performs the accounting process described above in step S14 based on the order data received from the data storage device 2 (step S35).

Each time the work of each order clerk is completed, the data storage device 2 is inserted into the cartridge unit 15a of the register 1 by pressing a predetermined key switch of the operation input unit 21, for example. 2 and the register 1 to transmit and receive data (step S
36).

As a result, the data storage device 2 notifies the register 1 that the job of the person in charge of the order has been completed, and the control unit 17 of the register 1 stores this time and stores the time. Ends management of working hours for. On the other hand, in the data storage device 2, of the data stored in the memory 23, for example, the employee code of the person in charge of the order is deleted.

At this time, the control unit 17 of the register 1
Aggregate the type and number of menu items handled by the order clerk, calculate the gross profit and sales amount for each item, and calculate the total of gross profit and sales amount, and information such as working hours To create an employee file with this as a list (step S37) and store it in the external storage unit 13.

Further, in step S38 after the store closes, each data stored in the external storage unit 13 of the register 1 is transmitted to the host computer 4, and
By operating the operation input unit 11, the employee file for each employee (order clerk) is displayed on the image display unit 12b as appropriate, or is printed on paper by the printer 3.

FIG. 8 shows an example of an employee file displayed on the image display section 12 b of the register 1 or printed by the printer 3. FIG. 8 shows an example in which the POS register system according to the embodiment is used in a yakiniku restaurant.

In this example, the name (A) of the employee, the date and time in charge of the employee, the type of menu item totaled by the control unit 17, the pre-input list price, special notes, and the value calculated in advance by the control unit 17. Cost rate and gross profit unit price (see Figure 5)
And the sales quantity, the gross profit, the sales amount, and the total of the gross profit and the total of the sales amount for each item calculated and calculated by the control unit 17 are output. (3) for kimchi and cold noodles in the “Sales volume” column indicates the number of orders actually received in the combination.

By performing such display or printing, it becomes clear that the employee sells which item and how much and how much profit has been generated in the store by this sales. The evaluation of the employee and the future management strategy for the store can be performed more easily.

FIG. 8 shows a display example of the results per day, but this data is stored in the external storage unit 13.
It is needless to say that the control unit 17 may calculate the value every week or every month, display it on the image display unit 12b, or print it out with the printer 3.

On the other hand, in step S39, the host computer 4 receiving the data from the register 1 calculates the gross profit and the sales amount for each store and, regarding the business performance of each employee, the special notes of each item. Is adjusted in consideration of the above, and the salary distribution to each employee is determined based on the adjusted value. Here, the method of calculating the correction value is not particularly limited. For example, as an example, the total amount of the gross profit shown in the lower part of FIG. Is corrected, and the corrected value is evaluated as the earned point of the employee.

The correction coefficients are, for example, 1.2 for recommended products, 1.5 for sales promotion items, -0.1 for low-cost products, and 1.4 for seasonal products.
Set to 2 for combination products. In this case, as for the performance of the employee A shown in FIG. 8, the basic point is 235962, but the correction value is calculated as 289127. In addition, as the correction coefficient, instead of being a fixed value as described above, for example, for a specific item, a value that fluctuates according to the magnitude of the number of sales, or according to the working hours of the employee, Various settings can be made by changing the value.

In this embodiment, the gross profit data for each menu item (order item) is stored in the register 1 as described above, and the register 1 stores the order data based on the order data supplied from the data storage device 2.
