The present invention relates to a money management system that can grasp and prevent fraud and mistakes associated with the delivery of money through human hands.

  Conventionally, in stores such as supermarkets, a so-called cash register is set up, and a change machine called a register is arranged in the cash register, and cashiers use the register to check out the products purchased by customers. It is common to perform processing. Note that Patent Document 1 discloses an example of a register that can handle POS (Point Of Sales).

  Further, in a store provided with a plurality of cash registers, a cash processing machine such as an exchange replenishing machine and a sales deposit machine is provided separately from each register. This money changer is a cash processing machine that changes money when there is a shortage of change money in each register. Specifically, a cashier holds a 10,000 yen bill in the register and changes money. To the place, return to the cash register with the 100-yen coin exchanged by the money-changing replenisher, and replenish the 100-yen coin in the register. If there is no money to be exchanged in the register, the change money is dispensed from the exchange replenisher, and the change money is replenished in the register.

  On the other hand, a sales deposit machine is a cash processing machine for depositing sales at each cash register. For example, when a store closes, cashiers inside the register excluding change money for the next day Then, go to the sales deposit machine and deposit the cash as sales into the sales deposit machine.

  In this way, there are multiple cash processing machines with different roles, such as cash registers, money exchange replenishers, and sales deposit machines in the store, and cashiers are handed by cashiers between these cash processing machines. It is normal.

  A preferred embodiment in the case where the fund management system according to the present invention is applied to a distribution store such as a supermarket will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. In the following, first, after explaining the outline and features of the fund management system according to the present invention common to each embodiment, when exchanging money (Example 1), when replenishing (Example 2), in cash A case where sales are collected (Example 3) and a case where sales are collected using a cassette (Example 4) will be described.

(Overview and features)
First, the outline of the fund management system according to the present invention will be described. FIG. 1 is a diagram showing a schematic configuration in a store that employs a money management system according to the present invention. In the store, there are a sales floor for displaying products, an office independent of the sales floor, and a deposit room. A register 20 is provided at each cash register for performing product settlement processing at the sales floor, and an exchange replenishing machine 30, a sales depositing machine 40, and a management device 10 are provided at the office and the deposit room.

  The register 20 is a POS-compatible cash processing machine operated by a cashier (operator), and includes a functional unit that performs POS-related processing such as a barcode reader and a POS data transmission unit, and a drawer that stores cash. It has a processing machine and a control unit that controls the deposit and withdrawal of money. When the cashier pays for various products purchased by the customer, the cashier reads the bar code attached to the product with a bar code reader, receives the price from the customer, and removes the necessary change from the money storage. Refund to the customer. Further, when the change in the money storage unit is insufficient, the cashier receives money exchange or withdrawal by the money changer 30 and replenishes the change. Further, at the time of closing such as closing, the cashier pays out the sales amount excluding change money for the next day from the register 20 and deposits it into the sales deposit machine 40. In the present invention, the functional units that perform POS-related processing are not directly related to the features of the invention, and thus detailed description thereof is omitted here.

  The currency exchange replenishment machine 30 is a currency processing machine provided mainly for a case where there is a shortage of change in the register 20, and is a currency processing for exchanging a large amount of banknotes into a specified currency and a specified currency without deposit. A replenishment process is performed to withdraw the specified number. The sales deposit machine 40 is a money handling machine that accepts the sales of each register 20 brought by the cashier and stores it in the storage unit. When the cashier deposits cash with cash, It can handle both cases of depositing money. When the cashier performs money exchange / replenishment or sales deposit, he / she moves between the money exchange / refilling machine 30 and the money depositing machine 40 and the register 20 to exchange money / replenishment or sales payment. Will be performed.

  The management device 10 is a device interposed between each register 20 and the exchange replenishing machine 30 or the sales depositing machine 40, and mainly performs processing related to exchange, replenishment and sales depositing. Specifically, if the cashier performs exchange, replenishment, and sales deposit, these facts are managed by the management device 10 until the processing is properly completed. Is going to prevent. Here, for convenience of explanation, a case where the management apparatus 10 is connected to each register 20, the exchange replenishing machine 30, and the sales depositing machine 40 is shown, but these are connected by a LAN (Local Area Network). You may do it.

  Next, features of the fund management system according to the present invention will be described. As already explained, a store such as a supermarket has been provided with a register 20, an exchange replenishing machine 30, and a sales depositing machine 40, so that cashiers can change the exchange replenishing machine 30 when there is a shortage of change. The money is exchanged or withdrawn and stored in the register 20, and the sales proceeds of the register 20 are deposited into the sales deposit machine 40 at the time of closing.

  However, if money is exchanged between the cash processing machines (for example, between the register 20 and the currency exchange replenishment machine 30) by hand, fraud and mistakes when the cashier carries the money become a problem. In particular, since the register 20 provided in the store cannot store a large amount of money unlike a cash processing machine provided in a bank or the like, the frequency of exchange or replenishment may increase. Mistakes are likely to occur.

  Therefore, in the money management system according to the present invention, information related to money exchange, replenishment, or cash payment is sent to the management device 10 separately from the money that the cashier deposits and withdraws manually, and the management device 10 manages this and transfers it. Is configured to erase such information when it is successfully completed, thereby preventing fraud and mistakes when cashiers carry money. However, the present invention does not manage who the cashier is to deliver. The reason is that, when a plurality of registers are replenished, a representative cashier may perform a replenishment work, or a clerk other than the cashier may replenish the work.

  In the first embodiment, a case will be described in which the present invention is applied when currency exchange processing is performed using the currency exchange replenisher 30 shown in FIG. First, the deposit / withdrawal operation of money by the cashier will be described. When performing such exchange processing, the cashier takes out money for exchange (for example, 10,000 yen bill) from the register 20 and brings it to the exchange replenishing machine 30. The cashier then deposits the exchange bills into the exchange replenishment machine 30 and selects a money denomination (for example, 500 yen coins) after the exchange and receives 20 500 yen coins. Thereafter, the cashier brings the dispensed money back to the register 20 and deposits (stores) the exchanged money (for example, 20 pieces of 500 yen coins) in the register 20. Thus, in the case of performing exchange, the exchange operation is completed through the deposit / withdrawal operation of withdrawal from the register 20, depositing into the exchange supplement machine 30, withdrawal from the exchange supplement machine 30, and depositing into the register 20. Therefore, in the first embodiment, the management apparatus 10 manages from the withdrawal from the register 20 to the deposit to the register 20.

  FIG. 2 is a functional block diagram of the system configuration of the money management system according to the first embodiment. As shown in the figure, when money is exchanged, the register 20, the management device 10, and the exchange replenisher 30 are involved.

  The register 20 includes an interface unit (I / F) 21, an input unit 22, a display unit 23, a printing unit 24, a control unit 25, and a money handling machine 26. As already described, a barcode reader that performs POS-related processing is not shown.

  The interface unit (I / F) 21 is an input / output unit for performing data transmission / reception with the management apparatus 10, and the input unit 22 is an interface such as a keyboard, a mouse, and a trackball that receives an input operation from a cashier. is there. When the input unit 22 is formed with a numeric keypad, it is necessary to provide a specific key indicating exchange or a key indicating denomination.

  The display unit 23 is a display device such as a liquid crystal panel or a display that displays the sales price of the product and the transaction details of the product, and the printing unit 24 is an output device such as a printer that prints and outputs the details (receipt) related to the product transaction. It is. The money handling machine 26 is a processing machine that performs money-related processing including a drawer that stores cash.

  The control unit 25 is a processing unit that performs overall control of the register 20, and includes a deposit acceptance processing unit 25a, an exchange request processing unit 25b, a determination unit 25c, and a deposit completion notification unit 25d. Here, for convenience of explanation, a settlement processing unit that handles the settlement processing of the product originally performed by the register 20 is not shown.

  The deposit acceptance processing unit 25a is a processing unit that accepts and processes money deposits. The deposit acceptance processing unit 25a accepts deposits by distinguishing the currency for the settlement of the product purchased by the customer from the currency exchanged by the currency exchange replenisher 30. The reason is to clarify how much money was exchanged. For example, when a mechanism is provided for transporting the money to the money handling machine 26 and storing it for each money denomination when money is inserted into the money slot of the register 20, When the money is inserted into the money slot after the key (a key indicating the money after exchange) is pressed, the money is accepted as money exchanged. On the other hand, when the register 20 is provided with only a drawer and the cashier stores money in the drawer, the money denomination and the number of coins entered by the key after pressing a specific key from the register 20 are displayed. Deposit receipt processing.

  The exchange request processing unit 25b is a processing unit that sends exchange request data to the management device 10 to request exchange when money for exchange (for example, 10,000 yen) is withdrawn from the register 20. Here, the exchange request data includes the withdrawal amount, the register ID, and the exchange denomination. For example, when it is desired to exchange 10,000 yen bills into 20 500 yen coins in the register 20 of the register ID 123, Exchange request data including data such as a withdrawal amount of 10,000 yen, a register ID 123, and a currency denomination of 500 yen is transmitted to the management apparatus 10. Note that the withdrawal amount and money exchange denomination are input using the keys of the register 20.

  The determination unit 25c is a processing unit that determines whether or not the money deposited as the exchange money is correct based on the exchange / withdrawal data received from the management device 10. Specifically, when money exchanged from the exchange replenishing machine 30 is withdrawn, the exchange / withdrawal data including the withdrawal type, the number of withdrawals and the register ID is stored in the register 20 via the management device 10. Therefore, it is determined whether or not the money denomination and the number of money of the deposited money are correct.

  The payment completion notifying unit 25d is a processing unit that transmits payment completion data to the management apparatus 10 when the determination unit 25c determines that the deposited money is correct. The reason for transmitting such deposit completion data to the management apparatus 10 is to enable the application in the management apparatus 10 described later. In addition, when the determination unit 25c determines that the deposited money is not correct, an error process is performed in which a display such as “Incorrect deposited money” is displayed on the display unit 23.

  Next, the configuration of the management apparatus 10 will be described. As illustrated in FIG. 2, the management apparatus 10 includes an input unit 11, a display unit 12, a storage unit 13, a control unit 14, and an interface unit (I / F) 15.

  The input unit 11 is an interface such as a keyboard, a mouse, and a trackball that receives an input operation from an administrator, and the display unit 12 is a display device such as a liquid crystal panel or a display that displays a management status. The storage unit 13 is a storage medium such as a hard disk that stores the exchange request data 13a, and the interface unit (I / F) 15 is an input / output unit for exchanging data between the register 20 and the exchange replenisher 30. is there.

  The control unit 14 is a control unit that performs overall control of the management apparatus 10, and includes a data transfer processing unit 14a and a consumption control unit 14b. The data transfer processing unit 14 a is a processing unit that performs data transfer between the register 20 and the currency exchange replenisher 30, and also reads and writes data from and to the storage unit 13. Specifically, when the exchange request data 13 a is received from the register 20, the exchange request data 13 a is stored in the storage unit 13 and transferred to the exchange supplement machine 30. Further, when the exchange / withdrawal data 13b is received from the exchange / refill machine 30, the exchange / withdrawal data 13b is stored in association with the exchange request data 13a stored in the storage unit 13, and the exchange / withdrawal data is also stored. Data 13b is transferred to the register 20. Furthermore, if the payment completion data is received from the money changer replenisher 30, this payment completion data is transferred to the application control unit 14b.

  The application control unit 14b is a control unit that performs application of the exchange request data 13a and the exchange / withdrawal data 13b after the cashier has finished depositing the exchange money into the register 20. Specifically, when money transfer completion data is received from the money exchange supplement machine 30, the corresponding money exchange request data 13a and money change / withdrawal data 13b stored in the storage unit 13 are deleted. Therefore, only the exchange request data 13a and the exchange / withdrawal data 13b during the depositing of the exchange money into the register 20 are stored in the storage unit 13. Therefore, when the exchange request data 13a and the exchange / withdrawal data 13b that are not cleared for a certain period stay in the storage unit 13, it is assumed that there is a possibility that some kind of fraud or error has occurred, and is displayed on the display unit 12. can do.

  Next, the configuration of the exchange replenisher 30 will be described. As shown in FIG. 2, the money exchange replenisher 30 includes a display unit 31, a control unit 32, a money handling machine 33, and an interface unit (I / F) 35. Here, since the exchange money type is transmitted as exchange request data, an input unit is not provided, but an input part for input of the exchange money type or an input by an administrator may be provided.

  The display unit 31 is a display device such as a liquid crystal panel or a display that displays the exchange status, and the money handling machine 33 is a processing machine that performs money-related processing including a drawer that stores cash. The interface unit (I / F) 35 is an input / output unit for exchanging data with the management apparatus 10.

  The control unit 32 is a control unit that controls the exchange replenishing machine 30 as a whole, and includes a deposit acceptance processing unit 32a, a determination unit 32b, an exchange processing unit 32c, and an exchange / withdrawal notification unit 32d. The deposit acceptance processing unit 32a is a processing unit that accepts and processes money for exchange (for example, 10,000 yen bills) withdrawn from the register 20 for exchange.

  The determination unit 32b determines the amount of money received and processed by the deposit acceptance processing unit 32a and the amount of money (withdrawal amount from the register 20) included in the exchange request data 13a received from the register 20 via the management device 10. It is a processing unit that compares the two to determine whether or not they match. Specifically, if the two match, it is determined that the money received and processed by the deposit acceptance processing unit 32a is correct, and the exchange processing unit 32c is instructed to change the currency. Do it.

  The exchange processing unit 32c is a processing unit that, when receiving an exchange instruction from the determination unit 32b, dispenses the amount of money that has been received and processed by the deposit acceptance processing unit 32a for the currency of the exchange request data 13a. For example, when the money accepted and processed by the deposit acceptance processing unit 32a is a 10,000 yen bill, and the exchange request data 13a is 500 yen, the withdrawal process is performed using 20 pieces of 500 yen coins as exchange money. Specifically, the exchange processing unit 32c instructs the money processing machine 33 to withdraw 20 pieces of 500 yen coins.

  The exchange / withdrawal notification unit 32d exchanges money including the type of withdrawal, the number of withdrawals, and the register ID after the money handling machine 33 has withdrawn the exchange according to the withdrawal instruction of the exchange processing unit 32c. It is a processing unit that transmits the withdrawal data 12b to the management apparatus 10. The reason for sending the exchange / withdrawal data 12b is to prevent fraud and mistakes when the cashier deposits the exchange money into the register 20.

  Next, processing procedures of the register 20, the management device 10, and the money exchange replenisher 30 shown in FIG. 2 will be described. FIG. 3 is a flowchart showing a processing procedure of the register 20, the management device 10 and the exchange replenishing machine 30 shown in FIG. 2, and FIGS. 4-1 to 4-4 show an outline when the cashier performs exchange and It is a figure which shows the outline | summary of the data delivered at that time.

  As shown in FIG. 4A, when the cashier has withdrawn money for exchange from the register 20, the exchange request processing unit 25b of the register 20 sends the exchange request data (withdrawal amount) to the management apparatus 10. , Register ID and exchange denomination) 13a is transmitted (step S101). Then, the cashier brings the dispensed money to the money exchange replenisher 30.

  The management apparatus 10 that has received the exchange request data 13a stores the exchange request data 13a in the storage unit 13 by the data transfer processing unit 14a (step S102), and then, as shown in FIG. 13a is transferred to the exchange replenisher 30 (step S103). Thereafter, the cashier pays the exchange money brought into the money exchange replenishing machine 30.

  If the deposit acceptance processing unit 32a of the exchange replenishing machine 30 deposits the money for exchange (step S104), the determination unit 32b determines the withdrawal amount and the deposit acceptance processing unit 32a included in the exchange request data 13a. Is compared with the amount of money received and processed to determine whether or not they match (step S105). If they do not match (No at Step S105), an error process such as displaying an error on the display unit 31 is performed (Step S106). If both match (Yes at Step S105), an exchange processing unit. The exchange process is performed by 32c (step S107), and the exchange / withdrawal notification unit 32d transmits the exchange / withdrawal data 13b to the management apparatus 10. FIG. 4C shows a case where exchange money withdrawal data 13b including a denomination of 500 yen, 20 sheets, and a register ID 123 is transmitted to the management apparatus.

  When the management apparatus 10 receives the exchange / withdrawal data 13b, the data transfer processing unit 14a stores the exchange / withdrawal data 13b in association with the exchange request data 13a having the same register ID in the storage unit. At the same time (step S109), the exchange / withdrawal data 13b is transferred to the register 20 (step S110).

  Then, after the register 20 receives the exchange / withdrawal data 13b, if the deposit acceptance processing unit 25a accepts the deposit of the exchange money (step S111), the determination unit 25c accepts the deposit acceptance processing unit 25a. The deposit type × the number of deposits (payment amount) is compared with the withdrawal type × the number of withdrawals (withdrawal amount) included in the exchange / withdrawal data 13b to determine whether or not they match ( Step S112). As a result, if they do not match (No at Step S112), error processing is performed. If both match (Yes at Step S112), the payment completion data including at least the register ID is as shown in FIG. 4-4. It transmits with respect to the management apparatus 10 (step S114).

  If the management apparatus 10 receives the payment completion data, the application control unit 14b deletes the exchange request data 13a and the exchange / withdrawal data 13b corresponding to the payment completion data from the storage unit 13. Is performed (step S115).

  By performing the above series of processing, the exchange request data 13a and the exchange / withdrawal data 13b remain in the storage unit 13 of the management apparatus 10 until the exchange of money into the register 20 is properly completed. 20, it is possible to grasp whether fraud or mistake has occurred.

  As described above, in the first embodiment, the exchange request data 13a is stored in the storage unit 13 of the management apparatus 10 when the exchange money is withdrawn from the register 20, and the exchange replenisher 30 stores the exchange request data 13a in the exchange request data 13a. When an appropriate deposit is made based on this, the exchange money is withdrawn and the exchange money withdrawal data 13b is transmitted to the management apparatus 10, and the register 20 that has received the exchange money withdrawal data 13b receives the exchange money. When an appropriate deposit is made based on the withdrawal data 13b, the deposit completion data is transmitted to the management device 10, and the management device 10 performs an application process of the corresponding exchange request data 13a and the exchange / withdrawal data 13b. When the cashier deposits money into the money exchange replenishing machine 30 and withdraws the money exchanged, and deposits the money for money exchanged into the register 20, 0 and accurately grasp the withdrawal Exchange refill unit 30, it is possible to prevent fraud and errors due to the replenishment of money through human intervention with.

  In the second embodiment, a case will be described in which the present invention is applied to the case where money replenishment processing is performed using the money exchange replenisher 30 shown in FIG. The replenishment referred to here refers to the withdrawal of money without depositing money into the exchange replenishment machine 30, unlike the exchange shown in the first embodiment. First, the deposit / withdrawal operation of money by the cashier will be described. When performing such replenishment processing, the cashier goes to the money exchange replenisher 30 from the register 20 and receives withdrawal of the money for replenishment from this money for exchange. Thereafter, the cashier brings the dispensed money back to the register 20 and deposits (stores) the supplementary money in the register 20. In this way, when replenishment is performed, the replenishment operation is completed through a deposit / withdrawal action such as withdrawal from the exchange replenisher 30 and deposit to the register 20. The management device 10 manages from the withdrawal to the deposit 20.

  FIG. 5 is a functional block diagram of the system configuration of the money management system according to the second embodiment. As shown in the figure, when replenishing money, the register 20, the management device 10, and the money exchange replenisher 30 are involved. In addition, about the functional part which has the function similar to the functional part shown in Example 1, the same code | symbol is attached | subjected and the detailed description is abbreviate | omitted.

  The register 20 includes an interface unit (I / F) 21, an input unit 22, a display unit 23, a printing unit 24, a control unit 25, and a money handling machine 26. The control unit 25 includes a replenishment request processing unit 25e. And a replenishment completion notification unit 25f. In addition, since it is the function part similar to the thing of Example 1 except the structure of the control part 25, the description is abbreviate | omitted here.

  The replenishment request processing unit 25e is a processing unit that functions when a money replenishment machine 30 is requested to replenish money from the register 20. Specifically, the replenishment request processing unit 25e registers replenishment request data including a replenishment amount, a replenishment number, and a register ID. 20 to send.

  The replenishment completion notification unit 25f is a processing unit that notifies the management device 10 that the replenishment money withdrawn from the money exchange replenisher 30 has been replenished in the register 20, and specifically manages replenishment completion data. It transmits to the apparatus 10.

  The management apparatus 10 includes an input unit 11, a display unit 12, a storage unit 13, a control unit 14, and an interface unit (I / F) 15. The control unit 14 includes a data transfer processing unit 14a, a consumption control unit 14b, and a determination unit 14c.

  The data transfer processing unit 14a functions in substantially the same manner as that of the first embodiment described with reference to FIG. 2, but the data stored in the storage unit 13 is not the exchange request data 13a but the replenishment request data 13c. The consumption control unit 14b functions in the same manner as that of the first embodiment described with reference to FIG. 2 except that the consumption control is executed according to the determination result from the determination unit 14c.

  When the replenishment completion data is received from the register 20, the determination unit 14c is a processing unit that determines whether or not the replenishment is appropriate. Specifically, the determination unit 14c checks whether or not the replenishment amount is appropriate. If there is, it instructs the consumption control unit 14b to erase the replenishment request data 13b.

  Thus, here, unlike the first embodiment shown in FIG. 2, the determination process by the determination unit is performed not on the register 20 side but on the management apparatus 10 side. For this reason, a determination unit that determines whether or not the deposit to the register 20 is appropriate is excluded from the register 20. However, as in the first embodiment shown in FIG. 2, the determination may be performed on the register 20 side, and the management apparatus 10 may be controlled to perform the erase according to the determination result.

  The exchange replenishing machine 30 includes a display unit 31, a control unit 32, a money handling machine 33, and an interface unit (I / F) 35. The control unit 32 includes a withdrawal processing unit 32e and a withdrawal completion notification unit 32f. In other words, unlike the exchange shown in the first embodiment, in the case of the replenishment targeted by the second embodiment, the depositing action to the exchange replenishing machine 30 does not occur, and therefore processing related to this deposit is excluded.

  The withdrawal processing unit 32e is a processing unit that performs processing for dispensing the money of the supplementary denomination included in the supplementary request data 13c for the number of supplements, and the withdrawal completion notifying unit 32f is provided when the withdrawal is completed. It is a processing unit that transmits gold completion data to the management apparatus 10.

  Next, processing procedures of the register 20, the management device 10, and the money exchange replenisher 30 shown in FIG. 5 will be described. FIG. 6 is a flowchart showing a processing procedure of the register 20, the management device 10 and the money exchange replenisher 30 shown in FIG. 5, and FIGS. 7-1 to 7-4 show an outline of the case where the cashier performs replenishment and It is a figure which shows the outline | summary of the data delivered at that time.

  As illustrated in FIG. 7A, if the cashier determines that the money in the register 20 is insufficient, the replenishment request processing unit 25e of the register 20 sends the replenishment request data (supplement denomination) to the management device 10. , The replenishment number and register ID) 13c is transmitted (step S201).

  The management apparatus 10 that has received the replenishment request data 13c stores the replenishment request data 13c in the storage unit 13 by the data transfer processing unit 14a (step S202). Then, as shown in FIG. 13c is transferred to the exchange replenisher 30 (step S203).

  If the money exchange replenishing machine 30 accepts the replenishment request data 13c, the withdrawal processing unit 32e dispenses the replenishment money included in the replenishment request data 13c by the replenishment number (step S204). The withdrawal completion notification unit 32f transmits withdrawal completion data to the management apparatus 10 (step S205). The withdrawal completion data includes the supplementary denominations withdrawn as supplementary money, the number of supplements, and the register ID.

  On the other hand, as shown in FIG. 7C, the cashier for replenishment withdrawn from the money exchange replenisher 30 is carried to the register 20 and deposited in the register 20. That is, if the register 20 receives the replenishment money (step S206), it transmits replenishment completion data to the management apparatus 10 (step S207). The replenishment completion data includes a replenishment denomination, a replenishment number, and a register ID received as replenishment money.

  Then, as shown in FIG. 7-4, if the management device 10 receives the replenishment completion data, it determines whether replenishment is appropriate (step S208). If the replenishment amount is correct (step S209 affirmative), the erase is performed. If the replenishment amount is not correct (No at Step S209), error processing is performed (Step S211). Specifically, the replenishment denomination included in the withdrawal completion data × the number of replenishment (withdrawal amount) is compared with the replenishment denomination included in the replenishment completion data × the number of replenishment (payment amount). If both match, it is determined that the replenishment amount is correct.

  By performing the above-described series of processing, the replenishment request data 13c remains in the storage unit 13 of the management apparatus 10 until the replenishment of the replenishment money to the register 20 is properly completed. You can see what happened.

  As described above, in the second embodiment, the replenishment request data 13c from the register 20 is stored in the storage unit 13 of the management apparatus 10, and the money exchange replenisher 30 performs withdrawal based on the replenishment request data 13c and withdraws. The completion data is transmitted to the management device 10, and the register 20 transmits the replenishment completion data to the management device 10 when the cashier pays the supplementary money, and the management device 10 checks whether the supplementary money is appropriate. When the replenishment is not correct, the replenishment request data 13a is erased. Therefore, when the cashier takes out the replenishment from the money exchange replenisher 30 and deposits it into the register 20, It is possible to accurately grasp the deposit / withdrawal of the register 20 and the currency exchange replenishment machine 30, thereby preventing fraud and mistakes associated with the replenishment of money through manpower.

  In the third embodiment, a case will be described where the sales in the register 20 shown in FIG. When depositing the sales proceeds, the cashier pays out the money (sales) from the register 20 excluding the necessary change thereafter from the register 20, and the cashier receives the withdrawal. The money is brought to the sales depositing machine 40 and the sales proceeds are deposited into the sales depositing machine 40. In this way, when depositing sales, since the deposit of sales proceeds is completed by withdrawing from the register and depositing into the sales deposit machine 40, in the third embodiment, the withdrawal from the register 20 It is assumed that the management apparatus 10 manages up to the deposit to the sales deposit machine 40.

  FIG. 9 is a functional block diagram of the system configuration of the money management system according to the third embodiment. As shown in the figure, when depositing sales, the register 20, the management device 10, and the sales deposit machine 40 are involved. In addition, about the functional part which has the function similar to the functional part shown in Example 1, the same code | symbol is attached | subjected and the detailed description is abbreviate | omitted.

  The register 20 includes an interface unit (I / F) 21, an input unit 22, a display unit 23, a printing unit 24, a control unit 25, and a money handling machine 26. The control unit 25 includes a deposit request processing unit 25g. It has. In addition, since it is the function part similar to the thing of Example 1 except the structure of the control part 25, the description is abbreviate | omitted here.

  The deposit request processing unit 25g is a processing unit that transmits deposit request data 13d indicating receipt of sales proceeds to the management apparatus 10 when withdrawing sales. This deposit request data 13d is data having a sales amount and a register ID. The reason for transmitting the deposit request data 13d is to determine whether or not an appropriate amount of money has been deposited when depositing the sales proceeds to the sales deposit machine 40.

  The management apparatus 10 includes an input unit 11, a display unit 12, a storage unit 13, a control unit 14, and an interface unit (I / F) 15. The control unit 14 includes a data transfer processing unit 14a and a consumption control unit 14b. The data transfer processing unit 14a and the application control unit 14b perform the same processing as in the first embodiment shown in FIG. 2, but the depositing request data 13d is stored in the storage unit 13 and the data to be transferred. Is slightly different in that it becomes the deposit request data 13d.

Perform the process. The reason why the IC tag 28a is stored in such a register ID is to determine whether the sales collection cassette 28 attached to the sales deposit machine 40 is appropriate.

  The management apparatus 10 includes an input unit 11, a display unit 12, a storage unit 13, a control unit 14, and an interface unit (I / F) 15. The control unit 14 includes a data transfer processing unit 14a and a consumption control unit 14b. The data transfer processing unit 14a and the consumption control unit 14b perform the same processing as in the third embodiment shown in FIG.

  The sales deposit machine 40 is a device that receives the sales collection cassette 28 attached to each register 20 at a predetermined closing time such as when a store is closed, and includes a display unit 41, a control unit 42, a currency storage unit 43, and an interface unit 44. Have The control unit 42 is a control unit that controls the entire sales depositing machine 40, and includes a deposit acceptance processing unit 42a, a determination unit 42b, a deposit processing unit 42c, a deposit completion notifying unit 42d, and an IC tag reading processing unit 42e. Although not shown in the figure, the sales depositing machine 40 is configured so that the sales collection cassette 28 can be mounted.

  The deposit acceptance processing unit 42a, the determination unit 42b, the deposit processing unit 42c, and the deposit completion notification unit 42d are functional units that perform the same processing as that of the third embodiment shown in FIG. The only difference is the target. The IC tag reading processing unit 42e is a processing unit that reads the register ID stored in the IC tag 28a attached to the sales collection cassette 28. However, in the fourth embodiment, only the register ID is stored in the IC tag 28a. However, the sales amount can also be written. Here, on the assumption that the cashier cannot take out money from the sales collection cassette 28, only the register ID is stored.

  Next, processing procedures of the register 20, the management apparatus 10, and the sales deposit machine 40 shown in FIG. 11 will be described. FIG. 12 is a flowchart showing the processing procedure of the register 20, the management apparatus 10 and the sales depositing machine 40 shown in FIG. 11, and FIGS. 13-1 to 13-2 show the cash collection cassette 28 by the cashier. It is a figure which shows the outline | summary in the case of depositing sales money using and the outline | summary of the data delivered at that time.

  As shown in FIG. 13A, when the cashier deposits the sales in the register 20 into the sales depositing machine 40, the sales collection cassette 28 is removed from the register 20, and the withdrawal amount and The deposit request data 13d including the register ID is transmitted to the management apparatus 10 (step S401), and the register ID is stored in the IC tag 28a (step S402).

  The management apparatus 10 that has received the deposit request data 13d stores the deposit request data 13d in the storage unit 13 by the data transfer processing unit 14a (step S403), and then, as shown in FIG. 13d is transferred to the sales deposit machine 40 (step S404).

  Then, the sales deposit machine 40 accepts the deposit request data 13d, and if the deposit collection cassette 28 brought by the cashier is attached (step S405), the determination unit 42d adds the deposit request data 13d to the deposit request data 13d. The included register ID is compared with the register ID read from the IC tag 28a of the sales collection cassette 28 to determine whether or not they match (step S407). If they do not match (No at Step S407), error processing is performed (Step S408). If they match (Yes at Step S407), the deposit processing unit 42d receives the sales from the sales collection cassette 28. (Step S409), the payment completion data is transmitted to the management apparatus 10 as shown in FIG. 13-2 (Step S410).

  If the management apparatus 10 receives this payment completion data, the application control unit 14b performs an application process of the application request data stored in the storage unit 13 (step S411).
