  Each of the percent account keys 37a, 37b, 37c, the percent account rounding amount unit setting memory 122, and the percent account key flag memory 139 constitute a designation means for designating a rounding amount unit for the percent account.

  For example, at a restaurant, each time a customer orders a product, the product name and quantity are written on the bill, and at the time of settlement, the customer brings the bill to the accounting location where the sales data processing device is located and settles the bill. Do.

  In the sales data processing apparatus, when the operator receives a checkout slip from the customer, the product and the quantity described in the checkout slip are input by operating the numeric key 31, the PLU key 33, the single item key 34, etc. of the keyboard 2. . The input data is registered in the registration memory 131 as sales data and recorded in the electronic journal 14. Further, it is printed on receipt paper by the printer 21. Then, when the input of all the commodities described in the checkout slip is completed, the operator operates the subtotal key 35.

  When the operation of the subtotal key 35 is performed, the CPU 11 checks whether or not a product has been registered in S1, based on the program data, as shown in FIG. In S2, the total amount based on all the registered products and their quantities is calculated and displayed on both the operator display 5 and the customer display 6.

  At this time, if there is an offer for the split payment from the customer, the closing operation is performed once. That is, the current total key 36 is operated. When the current total key 36 is operated, the CPU 11 checks whether or not a product has been registered in S11 based on the program data, as shown in FIG. In step S12, a transaction-specific registration based on the total price and a closing process such as receipt is performed.

  Next, the operator asks the customer whether the discount target number and the rounding amount unit should be 100 yen, 500 yen, or 1,000 yen, and after inputting the number of persons with the numeric keypad 31, the account keys 27a, 27b, 27c Select the operation.

  When the split key is operated, the CPU 11 checks whether there is a numeric input by the numeric key 31 in S21 based on the program data, as shown in FIG. 8, and if there is any, the split key 37a, 37b, 37c. Next, in S22, it is determined whether the operated split key is the split key (1) key 37a, the split key (2) key 37b, or the split key (3) key 37c. .

  When the split account (1) key 37a is determined, the split account (1) key flag of the split key key flag memory 139 is set to "1" in S23. Then, the number input is stored in the number-of-persons memory 136 as the number of people for splitting. If the split key (2) key 37b is determined, the split key (2) key flag of the split key key flag memory 139 is set to "1" in S24. Then, the number input is stored in the number-of-persons memory 136 as the number of people for splitting. If the split key (3) key 37c is determined, the split key (3) key flag of the split key key flag memory 139 is set to "1" in S25. Then, the number input is stored in the number-of-persons memory 136 as the number of people for splitting.

  Subsequently, in S26, it is determined by the flag of the setting flag memory 121 whether the set rounding processing method is rounding up, rounding down, or rounding off. If the rounding method is rounded down, in S27, the total amount is divided by the number of people to be discounted, and the value is rounded down to the rounded off amount unit and stored in the discount amount memory 137 as a discount amount. .

  If the rounding method is rounded off, in S28, the total amount is divided by the number of people subject to the split account, and the value is rounded off to the rounded off round amount unit, and the value is used as the discount amount. To store. If the rounding method is rounded up, in S29, the total amount is divided by the number of people to be discounted, and the value is rounded off to less than the percent rounding amount unit, and the value is added to the discount amount memory 137 as a discount amount. Store.

  Subsequently, in S30, using the total amount, the discount amount, and the number of people, the calculation of the total amount−the discount amount × (number of people−1) is performed to calculate the secretary payment amount, which is stored in the secretary payment amount memory 138. . In S31, the printer 21 prints the total amount, the number of people, the percent payment amount, and the secretary payment amount on the receipt sheet together with the date, and issues a percent bill statement. Finally, in S32, the flag of the split key key memory 139 is reset and the split key processing is terminated.

  In such a configuration, for example, input of all commodities described in the checkout slip is completed, and the total amount “39,765 yen” is displayed on the operator display 5 and the customer display 6 by operating the subtotal key 35. ”Is displayed, and in this state, if there is a request from the customer to split the eight persons, the operator operates the current total key 36 to perform tightening. As a result, the merchandise name, unit price, quantity, and amount of money are printed for all the products described in the checkout slip, and a receipt printed with the total price is issued.

  Further, when confirming to the customer that the percent account rounding unit is 100 yen, the operator operates the numeric keypad 31, inputs the number of people “8”, and operates the percent account (1) key 37a. By operating the split account (1) key 37a, the split key (1) key flag of the split key key flag memory 139 is set to “1”, and “8” is stored in the number of people memory 136.

  If rounding down is preset as the rounding method, 39,765 yen is divided by 8 persons, and further, by rounding off less than 100 yen, a discounted amount “4,900 yen” is obtained and stored in the discounted amount memory 137. Stored. In this way, you can get a discount for 7 people excluding the secretary. Also, the secretary payment amount “5,465 yen” is calculated from 39,765 yen− (4,900 yen × 7 persons) and stored in the secretary payment amount memory 138.

Then, the printer 21 prints on the receipt paper the split statement, date and date, the receipt number already issued, and further prints the total amount a, the number of people b, the split amount c, and the secretary payment d. Issue the percent bill shown in.
The representative or secretary of the customer who received the split account will receive 4,900 yen each from the other seven persons and pay.

  In this way, after tightening by operating the current total key 36, the representative key (secretary) can be selected simply by inputting the number of people to be split using the numeric keypad 31 and selecting the split key 37a to 37c for specifying the rounding amount unit. ), And the account details printed with the representative (secretary) payment amount are issued, so that the account amount can be promptly presented to the customer in the amount unit desired by the customer. The customer can quickly deal with the payment by looking at the discount account, and can smoothly settle the discount account.

  In addition, although the case where the rounding-down method that rounds off less than 100 yen is adopted as an example is described here, for example, when the round-up method rounding up less than 100 yen is adopted, the discount amount is set to “5,000 yen”. Therefore, the amount of the secretary payment is “4,765 yen”. The discount statement issued at this time is as shown in FIG. In addition, when the rounding method of rounding off less than 100 yen is adopted, it changes depending on whether the value less than 100 yen is 50 yen or more. In the case of the above example, the discount amount is “ “5,000 yen” and the secretary payment amount is “4,765 yen”.

  In this embodiment, the current total key 36 is operated after the subtotal key 35 and tightening is performed. However, after the representative (secretary) pays once, other members of the group receive the discount amount. In the case of collecting, the deposit amount is input by the ten key 31 after the subtotal key 35, and then the current total key 36 is operated to perform tightening. At this time, if there is change, the change is calculated and displayed on the displays 5 and 6, and the deposit amount and change are also printed on the issued receipt.
