  Hereinafter, a transaction data processing apparatus and program according to embodiments will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. Each of the following embodiments is an example of a POS (Point Of Sales) terminal that is installed in a company employee cafeteria as a transaction data processing apparatus and executes accounting processing, for example.

(First embodiment)
As shown in FIG. 1, the POS terminal 1 includes a keyboard 11, a printer 12, a first display 13, a second display 14, and a card reader 15. These keyboard 11, printer 12, first display 13, second display 14 and card reader 15 constitute a POS main body 16. The POS body 16 is connected to a scanner 17 that is an input device. The POS terminal 1 incorporates a control unit 18 (see FIG. 2) that controls each unit of the POS terminal 1 in the POS main body 16. The POS main body 16 is placed on the drawer 19.

  The keyboard 11 has various operation keys for an operator to input an operation. The operation keys are a numeric key for inputting numerical values, a plurality of menu product keys, a subtotal key, a deposit / cash key, an execution key, and the like. The menu product key is a preset key to which a product code that is product identification information of the menu product is assigned. The menu product is, for example, a daily set meal, A set meal, B set meal, curry rice or the like. The deposit / current total key is a key for declaring that the fee for one transaction is settled in cash. The keyboard 11 inputs a signal corresponding to the operated key to the control unit 18.

  The first display 13 and the second display 14 are liquid crystal displays, for example, and are driven by the control unit 18 to display various information.

  The card reader 15 is a magnetic card reader that reads various magnetic information stored in the employee card 2. The card reader 15 inputs the read information to the control unit 18. Here, the card information stored in the employee card 2 includes employee information including an employee number. The employee number is an example of personal identification information. For example, the card information is represented by a 7-digit number. The first 5 digits are an employee number, the sixth digit is “0”, and the seventh digit is a check digit (C / D).

  The printer 12 is, for example, a thermal printer, and is driven by the control unit 18 to issue a receipt for each transaction.

  The scanner 17 optically reads a bar code product code. The scanner 17 inputs the read product code to the control unit 18. In the present embodiment, a bar code list on which bar codes indicating product codes of menu items are printed is prepared at the accounting counter together with the POS terminal 1. Therefore, in addition to the operation of the menu product key, the operator can input the product code of the menu product by causing the scanner 17 to read and input the barcode of the list.

  As shown in FIG. 2, the control unit 18 is a computer having a CPU (Central Processing Unit) 21, a ROM (Read Only Memory) 22, and a RAM (Random Access Memory) 23. The CPU 21 centrally controls various operations and each unit of the POS terminal 1. The ROM 22 stores various programs and various data. The RAM 23 temporarily stores various programs and stores various data in a rewritable manner. In addition to the ROM 22 and RAM 23, the CPU 21 is connected with a clock unit 24 for measuring the date and time and a communication interface (in the drawing, a communication I / F) 26 via a bus 25. The POS terminal 1 can communicate with an external device such as a host device via the communication interface 26.

  The CPU 21 is connected to the keyboard 11, the printer 12, the first display 13, the second display 14, the card reader 15, and the scanner 17 via the bus 25 and the I / O device control unit 27. A storage device 28 is connected. As a result, each part can be controlled by the CPU 21, and signals from the keyboard 11, the scanner 17, the card reader 15, and the like can be input to the CPU 21.

  The storage device 28 is composed of, for example, a hard disk drive device. The storage device 28 stores a program for operating the CPU 21, a product master file, a sales file for storing sales data, a payment data file, and the like. The product master file stores a product code, a product name, a unit price, and the like for each product. The payment data file stores the transaction date and time, the employee number of the employee (individual) who made the payment, and the charge amount of one transaction in association with each transaction number for which the payment process was performed. The transaction number is a number issued for each transaction. The payment data file is transmitted to the host device at a predetermined timing, for example, every day, and the payment fee is deducted from the employee's salary based on the contents of the payment data file. .

  Next, sales processing executed by the CPU 21 of the POS terminal 1 according to the program will be described with reference to FIGS.

  According to the program, the CPU 21 of the POS terminal 1 functions as an obtaining unit 51, a receiving unit 52, and a settlement unit 54 as shown in FIG.

  The obtaining unit 51 is an obtaining unit and obtains a fee for one transaction. The reception unit 52 is a reception unit that receives an employee number that is personal identification information.

  The settlement unit 53 is a settlement method, and when the reception unit 52 receives the employee number, the payment unit 51 pays one transaction for which the fee amount is obtained, and the individual payment for which the reception unit 52 receives the employee number . This deduction is a payroll deduction. Here, in the present embodiment, the settlement unit 53 can accept payments other than payment. Examples of payment other than payment include cash payment, credit payment, electronic money payment, etc. Here, an example of cash payment will be described. If the payment unit 53 does not accept any payment other than the payment within a specified time after the reception unit 52 receives the employee number, the settlement unit 53 pays one transaction, and the payment unit 53 receives the employee number. Pay off.

  Next, the sales process will be described in detail with reference to the flowchart of FIG. First, the CPU 21 waits for input of a product code from the keyboard 11 or the scanner 17 (No in step S1). When receiving the product code input from the keyboard 11 or the scanner 17 (Yes in step S1), the CPU 21 reads the product information of the product for which the product code has been received from the product master file (step S2). The read product information includes a product name and a unit price. Next, the CPU 21 registers the product for which the product code has been received (step S3). More specifically, the CPU 21 creates sales data for the product using the product information read in step S <b> 2 and stores the sales data in the RAM 23, thereby registering the sale of the product. Sales data includes product names and unit prices. Moreover, CPU21 displays the unit price etc. on the 1st indicator 13 and the 2nd indicator 14 among the merchandise information of goods. Further, the CPU 21 calculates the total amount of the products registered for sale so far, stores them in the RAM 23, and displays them on the first display unit 13 and the second display unit 14. And CPU21 repeats the process of step S1-S3, when a subtotal key is not operated (No of step S4). Here, the function of the obtaining unit 51 for obtaining the charge amount of one transaction is executed.

  When the subtotal key is operated (Yes in step S4), the CPU 21 waits for input of card information including an employee number from the card reader 15 (No in step S5). Here, in the present embodiment, the CPU 21 accepts input of an employee number only from the card reader 15 and not from the keyboard 11. In this way, unauthorized use of employee numbers is suppressed. When the CPU 21 receives input of card information including the employee number from the card reader 15 that has read the card information of the employee card 2 (Yes in step S5), the CPU 21 receives input of the card information from the card reader 15. It is determined whether or not the deposit / cash total key has been pressed within a specified time (step S6). When the CPU 21 determines that the deposit / cash key has not been pressed within a specified time after receiving the card information input from the card reader 15 (No in step S6), the one transaction for which the charge has been calculated in step S3. The payment process (settlement process) is executed to make the payment of the person who has received the card information in step S5 (step S7). Specifically, the CPU 21 includes the transaction number, the transaction date and time (for example, the date and time when the subtotal key is pressed), the fee for the one transaction calculated in step S3, and the card information input in step S5. The employee number to be associated is stored in the payment data file. In addition, the CPU 21 includes information indicating that the payment of the one transaction has been made by payment in the sales data, stores the sales data in the sales file, and completes the settlement. Here, the function of the settlement unit 53 is executed. And CPU21 produces | generates the receipt printing information of the said transaction, and makes the printer 12 issue a receipt based on this receipt printing information (step S8).

  On the other hand, if the CPU 21 determines in step S6 that the deposit / cash key has been pressed within a specified time after receiving the card information input from the card reader 15 (Yes in step S6), the charge is charged in step S3. Cash payment processing (settlement processing) is performed in which the calculated payment of the one transaction is cash payment (step S9). Specifically, the CPU 21 accepts an input of a deposit amount from the keyboard 11. Next, when the deposit amount is equal to or greater than the total amount of the product calculated in step S3, the CPU 21 calculates the change amount, and includes the total amount, the deposit amount and the change amount of the product in the sales data. Store the sales data in the sales file and complete the settlement. At this time, the CPU 21 causes the first indicator 13 and the second indicator 14 to display the deposit amount and the change amount. Note that if the deposit amount is less than the total amount of the products calculated in step S3, the deposit amount is insufficient, so that the CPU 21 waits for the deposit amount from the keyboard 11 to be input again. When this cash payment process is completed, the CPU 21 proceeds to step S8 and causes the printer 12 to issue a receipt (step S8).

  As described above, in the present embodiment, when the accepting unit 52 accepts the employee number, the settlement unit 53 pays for one transaction in which the obtaining unit 51 obtains the fee amount, and the accepting unit 52 assigns the employee number. It is assumed that the received individual is paid. Accordingly, in the present embodiment, for example, when the reception unit 52 receives the employee number, the payment unit 51 pays one transaction for which the fee amount is obtained, and the individual payment for which the reception unit 52 receives the employee number. Therefore, the accounting operation is simpler than the configuration requiring the operation of an accounting key (not shown). That is, according to the present embodiment, it is possible to relatively simplify the accounting operation in the case where the charge for one transaction is paid.

(Second Embodiment)
The present embodiment is different from the first embodiment in that a payment type is stored in the employee card 2 and the CPU 21 performs accounting processing according to the payment type.

  The card information stored in the employee card 2 of the present embodiment is 8-digit number information, and is the same as that of the first embodiment up to the seventh digit. The eighth digit indicates the payment type. When the 8th digit is “1”, it indicates a payment, and when it is “0”, it indicates a cash payment. In this way, by setting the payment type at the eighth digit, the card type stored in the employee card 2 associates the payment type with the employee number. The payment type setting can be changed by a card reader / writer (not shown).

  Then, when the payment type associated with the employee number (personal identification information) is a payment, the settlement unit 53 according to the present embodiment pays one transaction, and the payment of the individual who has received the employee number by the reception unit 52. Suppose you pay.

  Hereinafter, the settlement processing of the present embodiment will be described with reference to the flowchart of FIG. CPU21 performs step S26 instead of step S6 of the flowchart of FIG. In step S <b> 26, the CPU 21 determines whether or not the payment type set in the card information received from the card reader 15 is “1”. If the CPU 21 determines that the payment type is “1” (Yes in Step S26), the CPU 21 proceeds to Step S7 and executes the payment process. Here, the function of the settlement unit 53 is executed. On the other hand, if the CPU 21 determines that the payment type is not “1”, but “0” cash payment (No in step S26), the CPU 21 proceeds to step S9 and executes cash payment processing.

  As described above, in the present embodiment described above, when the payment unit 53 has the payment type associated with the employee number (personal identification information) payable, the reception unit 52 receives the payment for one transaction. It will be paid by an individual. Therefore, the accounting operation is simple as in the first embodiment.

  As described above, according to each of the above-described embodiments, the accounting operation in the case of paying a fee for one transaction can be relatively simplified.

  Although several embodiments of the present invention have been described, these embodiments are presented by way of example and are not intended to limit the scope of the invention. These novel embodiments can be implemented in various other forms, and various omissions, replacements, and changes can be made without departing from the scope of the invention. These embodiments and modifications thereof are included in the scope and gist of the invention, and are included in the invention described in the claims and the equivalents thereof.
