2. Description of the Related Art In FIG. 5, a product G stored in a shopping basket 9 flows in a soccer table 1 in the X direction. At the center thereof, a product data input unit 30 having a fixed scanner 31 is arranged, and the checker CHK performs product data input operation for the product G purchased by the customer CST. An electronic cash register 10 is arranged on the table 2 on the downstream side, and the cashier CSH carries out the settlement work. That is, 2 by the checker CHK and the cashier CSH
Since product registration can be done manually, the work efficiency is high.

That is, in the product data input unit 30, the checker CHK takes out the product G from the shopping basket 9 and allows it to pass through the scanning area of the fixed type scanner 31, that is, the product data, that is, the bar code (product code) attached to the product G.
Read. This read merchandise code is transmitted to the electronic cash register 10 and registered for sale in the electronic cash register 10 together with merchandise data (article name, unit price).

Therefore, the cashier CSH performs only settlement operations. That is, when the keyboard of the electronic cash register 10 is operated to perform the tightening operation, the total amount of money or the like is obtained, and the total amount of money or the like is displayed on the display, printed on the receipt, and issued. Then, money is exchanged using the opened drawer. At this time, when the customer CST has received a request to purchase a new product G or if there is a request to cancel the product G once registered for sale, the cashier CSH uses the handy scanner 40 to perform additional registration or cancellation registration. .

By the way, since the scanning area of the fixed type scanner 31 is formed above the soccer table 1, when the product G is a large one or is difficult to hold, the checker CHK uses the fixed type scanner 31. There are cases in which it is very difficult to enter product data using. In such a case, conventionally, the checker CHK uses the keyboard in the product data input unit 30 or borrows the handy scanner 40 on the electronic cash register 10 side to input the product data. However, since the product code is complicated, the handy scanner 40 is often borrowed and input.

However, according to the above-mentioned conventional configuration, when the checker CHK borrows the handy scanner 40 on the electronic cash register 10 side, the cashier CSH settlement process is hindered. That is, cashier CSH and customer CS
Since money is exchanged with T, not only is it easy to cause a drop of coins or the like, but also customer service is deteriorated. On the other hand, if the cable 45 of the handy scanner 40 is short, the checker CHK has to move a large product G in accordance with it, which is an unexpected heavy labor.

However, providing separate handy scanners (40) for the checker and the cashier not only increases the cost, but also makes internal processing difficult.

An object of the present invention is to provide a low-cost, easy-to-handle two-person product sales registration data processing device in which one handy scanner can be used by a checker and a cashier without interfering with each other's business. To provide.

When the cashier wants to perform additional registration, he / she makes a dedicated declaration using the dedicated declaration means on the electronic cash register side. Then, the dedicated transfer control means recognizes the product data subsequently input from the handy scanner as an input for business performed on the electronic cash register side, and does not recognize the input from the product data input unit side. Therefore,
The cashier can use the handy scanner exclusively for additional registration work. At this time, the checker can continue to input the product data with the fixed scanner and the keyboard, so that the input of the product data for the next customer is not hindered. After that, when the work by the cashier is completed, the exclusive release means is used to release the exclusive use. As a result, the exclusive return control means operates to return the exclusive of the handy scanner to the product data input unit side. Therefore,
