It is determined whether selecting have " sale " transaction categories in transaction categories selection menu screen 43b from operator Select button image B14 (S7).

When being determined as " YES " in the step s 7, the information of corresponding " sale " will be selected to be stored with memory with it " QUICPay " information combination alternatively order information be written in the slot 1 of record sheet 243 (S8).

Then, trading processing (S9) is executed.It is to apply insertion process to CPU20, so that transaction is distributed in CPU20 execution The trading processing of classification select button.In this way, CPU20 by communicate I/F and central server communicate etc. come Trading processing is executed, and at the end of trading processing, is then shown end notification on a liquid crystal display.In addition, in this example, It is able to carry out the sale processing of the QUICPay judged in the step s 7.

At the end of sale processing in step s 9, then invoice (S10) is provided by printing portion.

In addition, when being determined as " NO " in step sl, the other Tab keys (S11) of input are determined whether there is.As long as Judge " NO " in step s 11, then return to step S1, as long as being determined as " YES ", then determines whether " quick " tabulation of input Key (S12).

When being determined as " NO " in step s 12, the processing (S13) of other Tab keys is executed, is ended processing.When in step When being determined as " YES " in rapid S12, the processing of aftermentioned Fig. 9 is migrated to.

In addition, when being determined as " NO " in step S3, S5 or S7, due to being the processing of other selecting sequences, so holding The each selection processing (S14) of row.Moreover, the selecting sequence information obtained by step S14 is written to record in step s 8 In table, and each trading processing is executed in the step S9 of connecting.

The explanation of above process flow is the process flow of a trading processing.Much less, trading processing often occurs all It can repeat the process flow.

Therefore, the trading processing for the selecting sequence being commonly used continuously is accumulated in record sheet as " selecting sequence information " In multiple slots.

In addition, most recently used trading processing is accumulated in the small number of slot, can avoid deleting from record sheet.

Fig. 9 is the processing of the settlement terminal 1 when operator uses " quick " Tab key to select trading processing from initial picture Flow chart.The processing is not only to be shown by the display controller 24-1, the select button that are described in detail in the explanation of Fig. 2 and Fig. 3 Portion 240, compound button display unit 241, selecting sequence write section 242 and record sheet 243, but also further pass through selecting sequence Department of Statistics 244 etc. is come the processing realized.In addition, the processing also suitably executes various programs etc. to realize by CPU.

When operator selects " quick " Tab key in initial picture, then judged by " YES " of the step S12 of Fig. 8, Start the processing of Fig. 9.

First, when " quick " Tab key for specifying initial picture by operator, and judge to be the defeated of " quick " Tab key It is fashionable, then apply insertion etc. in a manner of executing selecting sequence statistical disposition etc. to CPU20, executes following selecting sequence Statistics program.

It is when CPU20 receives above-mentioned insertion from display controller 24-1, then selecting sequence information is whole from record sheet 243 RAM22 (obtaining selecting sequence information) is copied to, and executes the selecting sequence statistics program (S21) that FlashROM23 is stored.

Moreover, CPU20 carries out statistical disposition, which is sent to compound button display unit 241 (S22) by CPU20. In statistical disposition, selecting sequence information is counted by type, and go down from the more to few sequence ranking of quantity.Count number is identical Selecting sequence information is from most proximad farthest sequence ranks.In addition, as above-mentioned statistical result, sends precedence information and select suitable Corresponding data of sequence information etc..

Then, compound button display unit 241, will be corresponding with selecting sequence information based on the selecting sequence information received Compound button configures in picture data (S23).In addition, the configuration sequence of compound button at this moment is based on the precedence letter received It ceases to carry out.For example, on the specified position of the image data of compound button to be configured from top to bottom start distribute number 1 to number Code 5, its compound button is configured on the consistent position of the number for being included with precedence information.At this moment, upper five compound buttons It can from top to bottom start to arrange in picture data.

According to the above processing, the high compound button of nearest usage frequency can be arranged in shortcut menu picture.

It is determined that whether operator is from any compound button of shortcut menu picture and selecting (S24).When in step S24 In when being determined as " YES ", then display controller 24-1 receives its signal, and selecting sequence write section 242 is by " the choosing of the compound button Select order information " it is written in record sheet 243 (S25)." the selecting sequence information " of compound button by with 243 institute of record sheet " selecting sequence information " identical rule establishment of storage, so can be directly stored in record sheet 243.At this moment, " selection is suitable Sequence information " is stored in slot 1, and the selecting sequence information that slot 20 is stored is deleted.

Therefore, then, when specified " quick " Tab key shows shortcut menu picture, including what present slot 1 was added The statistics of " selecting sequence information " can be carried out by CPU.

Processing after step S25 is carried out in a manner of identical with the trading processing of the slave step S9 of Fig. 8, bill printing.

Settlement terminal described above is when pressing " quick " Tab key, then due to the use of the high compound button arrangement of frequency In shortcut menu picture, so when operator settles accounts, operating burden can be mitigated.

In above-mentioned composition, although when specifying quick botton statistic record table " selecting sequence information ", It's not limited to that, and the timing of statistics " selecting sequence information " can also be specified suitably.For example, it is also possible to connecting settlement terminal Power supply, carry out start up process, setting processing when statistic record table information, and make " precedence information " after statistics and " select Order information " is stored in compound button display unit 241.In addition it is also possible to predetermined time interval carry out more than processing.

In addition, although display controller 24-1 has select button display unit 240, compound button display unit 241, selection suitable Sequence write section 242 and record sheet 243, but it's not limited to that.For example, it is also possible to CPU20, RAM22 and The control unit of FlashROM23 includes select button display unit 240, compound button display unit 241 and selecting sequence write section 242。

Although being carried out in addition, statistical disposition is applied to be inserted into CPU20, can also display controller side into Row.

In addition, the slot quantity of record sheet is 20 in this example, but can also suitably set.

(variation)

In variation, the composition that the record information of change record table is capable of to operator illustrates.

Figure 10 is the system block diagram of the settlement terminal of variation.

The settlement terminal 90 of Figure 10 is the terminal that operator configuration part 900 has been added in the settlement terminal 1 of Fig. 3.

Operator configuration part 900 provides setting screen to display unit 26 as user interface, reads the record letter of record sheet It ceases and includes on the setting screen shown by display unit 26 by its content.

In addition, operator configuration part 900 receives every 1 slot of record sheet as the input instruction from operation portion 27 Record the change of information.

When the information for showing all slots on setting screen, and the selecting sequence information for deleting defined slot is embedded in table When showing the information of blank, and executing update, then the deleted record information quilt of selecting sequence information that is stored in its slot It stores in record sheet.

In addition, when showing the information for specifying all slots on setting screen, according to the establishment rules of selecting sequence information When covering defined slot with new selecting sequence information, and executing change, then its slot passes through new selecting sequence information quilt The record information of covering is stored in record sheet.

In addition, in addition to this, the upper fixed configurations such as in slot can also be carried out and have to show as compound button The setting of the information shown etc..

In this way, operator can use the information of the rewriting of operator configuration part 900 record sheet.

As a result, the processing of the quick Tab key with reference to illustrated by Fig. 9 can be based on the record sheet that operator has changed Information carries out.

Operator configuration part 900 is the portion for limiting compound button and being shown to display unit.
