As another example, the number and total amount of rose banknotes for each denomination in the counting result of the rose banknotes based on the identification result by the identification unit 20 and the rose banknote in the result input by the operator through the operation display unit 302 When the number of denominations and the total amount are the same, a screen requesting the operator to confirm the payment is displayed on the operation display unit 302, and a screen requesting the operator to confirm the deposit is displayed on the operation display unit 302. When the operator gives a deposit confirmation command to the control unit 300 through the operation display unit 302, the control unit 300 may confirm the deposit processing of the loose banknotes. Further, the number and total amount of rose banknotes denominated in the counting result of the rose banknotes based on the identification result by the identification unit 20, and the number of rose banknotes per denomination in the result input by the operator through the operation display unit 302. If the total amount is not equal, an error message indicating that the counting result of the loose bills does not match the input result is displayed on the operation display unit 302. In this case, the operator performs any one of “correction of input value”, “return and re-insertion of loose banknotes”, “additional insertion of loose banknotes”, and “cancellation of deposit process” by the operation display unit 302. Will be able to enter.

  In addition, you may perform the input, such as the number of sheets for every money type of the rose banknote to be deposited, total amount, etc. at the time of a deposit process start. Even in this case, after the counting process of the loose bills by the identification unit 20 is completed, the number and total amount of the rose bills for each denomination in the counting result of the loose bills based on the identification result by the recognition unit 20 and the operation display unit by the operator Whether or not the number of denominations of the banknotes and the total amount in the result input by 302 is equal is checked.

  When the depositing process for loose banknotes is confirmed in the control unit 300, the loose banknotes temporarily held in the deposit temporary holding unit 30 are fed to the transport unit 18 by the banknote feeding and feeding unit 30b. And the denomination etc. are identified by the discriminating part 20 being sent to the rose banknote drawn | fed out from the payment temporary storage part 30 to the conveyance part 18. After that, among the rose banknotes identified by the identification unit 20 as being banknotes that can be withdrawn in the withdrawal process, the denomination type banknote storage unit 34 corresponding to the denomination of the rose banknote is in a near-full state or a full state. About the unsettled rose banknote, it is sent to the denomination type banknote storage part 34 corresponding to the denomination of the said rose banknote by the conveyance part 18, and is accommodated in this denomination type rose banknote storage part 34. In addition, even if it is the rose banknote identified by the identification part 20 as the banknote which can be withdrawn in the withdrawal process, the denomination rose banknote storage unit 34 corresponding to the denomination of the rose banknote is in the near full state or the full state. The separated bills are sent by the transport unit 18 to the mixed rose bill storage unit 32 and stored in the mixed rose bill storage unit 32. Moreover, the rose banknote (For example, the rose banknote identified as a conveyance abnormality (specifically, multifeed, skew feeding, etc.)) identified as not a normal banknote by the identification unit 20 is a normal banknote. Are not used for withdrawals (for example, banknotes) and denominations (for example, two thousand yen bills) that are not compatible with each type of individual banknote storage unit 34 are mixed by the transport unit 18. It is sent to the loose bill storage unit 32 and stored in the mixed loose bill storage unit 32. FIG. 7 shows a transport path of loose banknotes when the individual banknotes fed out from the deposit temporary storage section 30 are identified by the identification section 20 and then sent to the individual denomination banknote storage section 34 or the mixed rose banknote storage section 32. Shown in (b). Then, when all the loose banknotes are fed out from the temporary deposit storage unit 30 and sent to the mixed loose banknote storage unit 32 or each denomination type individual banknote storage unit 34, the temporary deposit unit 30 to each denomination banknote storage unit 34. This completes the sorting process of rose bills (corresponding to “storage process” in “Claims”).

  Moreover, in this Embodiment, the instruction | indication which concerns on the payment processing of a banknote is received by the payment processing command reception means 320 in the middle of the distribution processing of the loose banknote as shown in FIG.7 (b). Then, it is possible to interrupt the banknote sorting process and perform the banknote interruption and withdrawal process. The details of the banknote interruption / withdrawal process will be described below with reference to the flowcharts shown in FIGS.

  As described above, when the deposit process for the loose banknotes is confirmed, the display screen of the operation display unit 302 returns to the menu screen. When a banknote withdrawal process is selected, or when an instruction related to the withdrawal process is sent from the external device 310 such as a host terminal to the money depositing and dispensing machine 1 via the communication interface unit 308, the sorting process is interrupted. Interrupt payment processing is performed. More specifically, an instruction related to the withdrawal process is input by the operator through the operation display unit 302, or the withdrawal process is performed from the external device 310 such as a host terminal to the money depositing and dispensing machine 1 via the communication interface unit 308. When a command is sent, the withdrawal process command receiving means 320 receives a command related to the withdrawal process (“YES” in STEP 1). Further, at this time, the number and the total amount of the rose banknotes to be withdrawn are input to the control unit 300, whereby the number of the rose banknotes to be withdrawn for each denomination is controlled. It will be specified by. Here, when the total amount of loose banknotes to be withdrawn is input to the control unit 300, the total number of loose banknotes to be withdrawn is automatically calculated, for example, to be the minimum number of components. Become.

  When a command relating to the withdrawal process is accepted by the withdrawal process command accepting means 320, the number of individual rose banknotes to be dispensed and the individual denominations stored in the storage unit 306. The control unit 300 compares the number of rose banknotes stored in the storage unit 34 for each denomination (stock information). And in such a comparison by the control unit 300, when it is determined that all loose banknotes to be withdrawn by the withdrawal process are stored in the individual denomination type banknote storage units 34, that is, withdrawing money. The number of denominations of rose banknotes to be withdrawn by processing is stored in the individual denomination storage unit 34 stored in the storage unit 306 for all denominations to be withdrawn. When the number is less than or equal to the number of denominations of the banknotes (“YES” in STEP 2), the sorting process is interrupted and the interruption / withdrawal process is performed (STEP 3). Specifically, the feeding operation of the rose bills from the deposit temporary holding unit 30 is stopped, and all the rose bills that have already been fed out from the deposit temporary holding unit 30 are stored in the mixed rose bill storage unit 32 or each type of individual banknotes. When stored in the section 34, the rose banknotes to be dispensed out of the rose banknotes stored in each denomination type rose banknote storage section 34 are fed out from the denomination type rose banknote storage section 34 to the transport section 18. Then, the fed out banknotes are sent to the identification unit 20 by the transport unit 18, and after the denomination, authenticity, front / back, correct / injured, old / new, transport state, etc. are identified by the identification unit 20, Is reversed so that both sides are aligned. Thereafter, the loose banknotes identified as normal banknotes by the identifying unit 20 are sent to the loose banknote dispensing unit 24 by the transport unit 18 and are accumulated in the loose banknote dispensing unit 24. On the other hand, loose banknotes identified as not being normal banknotes by the identification unit 20 (for example, unsuccessful conveyance banknotes) are sent to the withdrawal rejection unit 26 by the conveyance unit 18 and accumulated in the withdrawal rejection unit 26. It becomes like this. When all the rose banknotes to be dispensed are accumulated in the rose banknote dispensing unit 24, the shutter 24a is opened, and the operator can take the loose banknotes out of the housing 12 from the rose banknote dispensing unit 24. It becomes like this. Moreover, when the withdrawal process of the loose banknote is completed, the interrupted sorting process is resumed. In the present embodiment, when the banknote withdrawal process is performed, a command to withdraw the banded banknote is given to the control unit 300, and the money type bill banknote storage unit 34 feeds the banknote banknote. The banded banknotes may be banded by the banding part 42, and the banded banknotes created by the banding part 42 may be thrown out by the banding banknote dispensing part 48. Specifically, loose banknotes are paid out from the denominated individual banknote storage unit 34 corresponding to the denomination of the banded banknote to be withdrawn to the transport unit 18, and are sent to the organizing and temporary storage unit 40 by the transport unit 18. Each time a predetermined number (for example, 100) of loose banknotes are accumulated in the temporary arrangement and storage unit 40, a banded banknote is created by the banding unit 42 from the predetermined number of loose banknotes accumulated in the temporary arrangement and storage unit 40. Then, the created banded banknotes are stacked on the stage 46 a of the banded banknote feeding unit 46. When all of the banded banknotes to be withdrawn are accumulated on the stage 46a of the banded banknote lifting unit 46, the shutter 48a opens, and the operator puts the banded banknotes from the banded banknote dispensing unit 48 to the outside of the housing 12. It can be taken out. The conveyance path | route of the rose banknote and the banded banknote at the time of the withdrawal process of the rose banknote or the banded banknote mentioned above is shown in FIG.7 (c). In addition, in this Embodiment, although the operation | movement at the time of the interruption payment process of a loose banknote being generally described is described, when the interruption payment process of a banded banknote is performed, "withdrawn" The “number of rose banknotes” should be replaced with “the number of rose banknotes corresponding to the banded banknote to be withdrawn”.

  As described above, in the present embodiment, when a command relating to the banknote withdrawal process is received by the withdrawal process command accepting unit 320 while the sorting process is being performed, the withdrawal process is performed. When all the rose banknotes to be stored are stored in the individual banknote storage units 34, the operator who wants to perform the withdrawal process by interrupting the sorting process and performing the interrupt withdrawal process Since there is no need to wait until the distribution process is completed, the convenience for the operator can be improved.

  On the other hand, when all the banknotes to be dispensed by the withdrawal process are not stored in each denomination type banknote storage unit 34 when a command related to the withdrawal process is accepted by the withdrawal process instruction accepting unit 320. In other words, for each number of denominations of rose banknotes to be withdrawn by the withdrawal process, at least one denomination to be withdrawn is stored in the storage unit 306 and stored in the denomination type rose banknotes. If there are more than the number of rose banknotes of the denomination stored in the part 34 (“NO” in STEP 2), the amount of the rose banknotes stored in the denomination type rose banknote storage part 34 is insufficient. Since all the rose banknotes to be dispensed cannot be paid out to the outside of the housing 12, a pop-up message is displayed on the operation display unit 302 indicating that preparation for withdrawal is in progress, as shown in FIG. Nina (STEP4). At this time, the operator can select whether or not to continue the withdrawal process using the operation display unit 302.

  Specifically, when the “Yes” button is pressed on the screen of the operation display unit 302 as shown in FIG. 8, the distribution process is interrupted and the withdrawal process is selected (“STEP 5“ YES "). In this case, the operation display unit 302 displays a message indicating that the amount of loose banknotes in the denomination-type banknote storage unit 34 is insufficient, as shown in FIG. The operator can select any one of “manual payment” and “cancel” by the operation display unit 302 (STEP 6). Here, when the operator selects the “withdrawal processing” by the operation display unit 302 (“YES” in STEP 7), only the loose banknotes of the denominations that can be withdrawn are withdrawn, and the denomination type banknotes The denominated rose banknotes that are insufficient in the storage unit 34 are hand-paid (STEP 8). Here, “manual payment” means that the cashier takes out the banknotes from the drawer, safe, cash bus, etc. of the cashier desk installed near the money depositing / dispensing machine 1 and hands it to the operator. Say. In addition, when the operator (or cashier) manually inputs information on such manually-paid rose banknotes (specifically, the number of each denomination and the total amount) from the operation display unit 302, the money is entered and exited. The control unit 300 of the metal machine 1 manages information on the loosely bills that have been manually wiped off. When the screen as shown in FIG. 9 is displayed on the operation display unit 302, when the operator selects to perform “manual payment” by the operation display unit 302 (“YES” in STEP 9), Both the rose banknotes of the denomination that can be withdrawn and the rose banknotes of the denomination in which the balance of the denomination type rose banknote storage unit 34 is insufficient (that is, all rose banknotes to be withdrawn) are manually wiped (STEP 10). Also in this case, when the operator (or a cashier) manually inputs information on the manually-paid rose banknotes using the operation display unit 302, the manually-pasted rose banknotes in the control unit 300 of the money depositing and dispensing machine 1. Information will be managed. 9 is displayed on the operation display unit 302, when the “cancel” button is pressed by the operator (“YES” in STEP 11), an interruption / withdrawal process is performed. Is canceled, and the distribution process that was interrupted is resumed. When the screen as shown in FIG. 8 is displayed on the operation display unit 302, even when the “cancel” button is pressed by the operator, the interruption / withdrawal processing is canceled and interrupted. The distribution process that has been performed is resumed.

  Further, when the “No” button is pressed on the screen of the operation display unit 302 as shown in FIG. 8, the sorting process of loose bills as shown in FIG. 7B is continued (STEP 21). The withdrawal process is performed after the minute process is completed. Here, while the sorting process of loose banknotes is being performed, a pop-up screen indicating that the sorting process as shown in FIG. 10 is being performed is displayed on the operation display unit 302. At this time, the time until the distribution process is completed may be displayed on the operation display unit 302 in real time. The time until the sorting process is completed, which is displayed on the operation display unit 302, is calculated based on the number of loose banknotes held in the deposit temporary holding unit 30. Then, when the distribution process of loose banknotes is completed (“YES” in STEP 22), the number of denominations of rose banknotes to be withdrawn and the denominations of each denomination stored in the storage unit 306 The number of denominations of rose banknotes stored in the storage unit 34 for each denomination (that is, the number of denominations of rose banknotes originally stored in the individual denomination storage unit 34 and the number of denominations according to the sort process) The control unit 300 compares the total number of rose banknotes sent to the banknote storage unit 34 for each denomination. And in such a comparison by the control part 300, when all the rose banknotes which should be withdrawn by withdrawal process are accommodated in each money-type rose banknote storage part 34, that is, withdrawal by withdrawal process. When the number of denominations of rose banknotes to be made is equal to or less than the number of denominations of rose banknotes stored in the individual denomination storage units 34 for all denominations to be withdrawn (STEP 23, “YES”), the withdrawal process is continued after the sorting process of loose bills is completed (STEP 24).

  On the other hand, when all sorts of loose banknotes to be dispensed by the withdrawal process are not stored in each denomination type separate banknote storage unit 34 when the sorting process is completed, that is, the withdrawal process is performed. When the number of rose banknotes to be deducted is greater than the number of rose banknotes of the denomination stored in the denomination type rose banknote storage unit 34 for at least one denomination to be withdrawn (“NO” in STEP 23), the amount of the rose banknotes stored in the denominated rose banknote storage unit 34 is insufficient, and all the rose banknotes to be dispensed cannot be paid out to the outside of the housing 12. For this reason, the operation display unit 302 displays a message indicating that the amount of rose bills in the denomination type bill storage unit 34 is insufficient, as shown in FIG. "" Interrupt loading process " The operator of any of the processing of the cancellation, "will be able to be selected by the operation display unit 302 (STEP 25). Here, when the operator selects the “withdrawal processing” by the operation display unit 302 (“YES” in STEP 26), only the loose banknotes of the denomination that can be withdrawn are withdrawn. The denominated rose banknotes that are insufficient in the storage unit 34 are hand-paid (STEP 27). In this case, the operator manually inputs the information on the manually-paid rose banknotes (specifically, the number of each denomination and the total amount) from the operation display unit 302, thereby controlling the money depositing / dispensing machine 1. In the part 300, the information of the hand-paid rose banknotes is managed. When the screen as shown in FIG. 11 is displayed on the operation display unit 302, when the operator selects to perform “payment” by the operation display unit 302 (“YES” in STEP 28), Both the rose banknotes of the denomination that can be withdrawn and the rose banknotes of the denomination in which the balance of the denomination type rose banknote storage unit 34 is insufficient (that is, all rose banknotes to be withdrawn) are manually wiped out. (STEP 29). Also in this case, the information of the manually billed rose banknote is manually input by the operator through the operation display unit 302, and the information of the manually billed rose bill is managed in the control unit 300 of the money depositing and dispensing machine 1. Become so. Also, when the screen shown in FIG. 11 is displayed on the operation display unit 302, if the operator selects the “interrupt loading process” by the operation display unit 302 (“YES” in STEP 30). ), The withdrawal process can be interrupted, and the separated bill banknote storage unit 34 can be loaded with the separated bills (STEP 31). Specifically, after the withdrawal process is interrupted, when the operator inserts a banknote of an insufficient denomination into the input unit 14, the banknotes inserted into the input unit 14 are accommodated by the supply unit 16. After being drawn out into 12 and identified by the identifying unit 20, it is stored in the denominated rose bill storage unit 34 corresponding to the denomination of the rose bill. Then, when the interrupted billing process for loose banknotes is completed and all the rose banknotes to be withdrawn by the withdrawal process are stored in the individual banknote storage units 34, the withdrawal process is resumed. It becomes like this. Further, when a screen such as that shown in FIG. 11 is displayed on the operation display unit 302 and the “cancel” button is pressed by the operator (“YES” in STEP 32), an interruption / withdrawal process is performed. Is canceled, and the distribution process that was interrupted is resumed.

  Further, in the present embodiment, when a message indicating that the withdrawal is being prepared as shown in FIG. 8 is displayed on the operation display unit 302 (STEP 4), the time until the sorting process is completed (that is, , The time until preparation is completed) is displayed on the operation display unit 302 in real time. As a result, when the operator selects whether or not to continue the withdrawal process using the operation display unit 302, the operator sets the time until the distribution process displayed on the operation display unit 302 is completed. It can be used as a guideline whether or not the minute process is interrupted and the withdrawal process is performed. That is, when the time required for completing the sorting process displayed on the operation display unit 302 is relatively long, it is desirable for the operator to interrupt the sorting process and perform the withdrawal process. When the time until the sorting process displayed on the display unit 302 is completed is relatively short, there is a possibility that all the loose banknotes to be dispensed by the sorting process are stored in the denominated loose banknote storage unit 34. Therefore, it is desirable for the operator to perform the sorting process first. Note that the time until the sorting process is completed, which is displayed on the operation display unit 302, is calculated based on the number of loose banknotes held in the deposit temporary holding unit 30.

  When an instruction relating to the withdrawal process is received by the withdrawal process command accepting means 320 when the banknote depositing / withdrawing apparatus 10 of the money depositing / dispensing machine 1 according to the present embodiment performs the interrupt withdrawal process. When all the rose banknotes to be withdrawn by the withdrawal process are not stored in the individual denomination storage units 34 (“NO” in STEP 2), the withdrawal preparation as shown in FIG. 8 is in progress. When the message is displayed on the operation display unit 302, the following processing may be performed. That is, when all the rose banknotes to be withdrawn by the withdrawal process are not stored in the individual banknote storage parts 34, the number of rose banknotes to be withdrawn by the withdrawal process, The number of loose banknotes stored for each denomination stored in the denominated rose banknote storage unit 34 and the total number of rose banknotes for each denomination to be sent to the denominated rose banknote storage unit 34 by the sorting process are compared. It may come to be. It should be noted that the number of loose banknotes for each denomination to be sent to the denominated bulk banknote storage unit 34 by the sorting process is determined by the identification unit 20 when the bulk banknote depositing process as shown in FIG. It is managed by the control unit 300 based on the identification result of loose bills.

  The number of denominations of rose banknotes to be withdrawn by the withdrawal process is determined according to the number of rose banknotes for each denomination stored in the denomination rose banknote storage unit 34 and the sort processing. When it is less than or equal to the total number of loose banknotes for each denomination to be sent to the storage unit 34, when a message indicating that a withdrawal is being prepared as shown in FIG. 8 is displayed on the operation display unit 302. After the sorting process, a message indicating that all loose banknotes to be dispensed can be paid out to the outside of the housing 12 is displayed on the operation display unit 302. On the other hand, the number of denominations of rose banknotes to be withdrawn by the withdrawal process is the number of rose banknotes for each denomination stored in the denomination rose banknote storage unit 34 and the denomination type of denomination banknotes. When there is more than the total number of loose banknotes for each denomination to be sent to the storage unit 34, when a message indicating that a withdrawal is being prepared as shown in FIG. 8 is displayed on the operation display unit 302. The message indicating that all loose banknotes to be dispensed cannot be paid out to the outside of the housing 12 even after the sorting process is performed is displayed on the operation display unit 302. In this case, if the withdrawal process is selected by pressing the “Yes” button on the selection screen of the operation display unit 302 as shown in FIG. 8, the selection screen as shown in FIG. Is displayed on the operation display unit 302, and in such a selection screen, the operator performs one of the processes of “withdrawal process”, “payment”, “interrupt loading”, and “cancel”. 302 allows selection.

  Further, while the message indicating that the withdrawal is being prepared as shown in FIG. 8 is displayed on the operation display unit 302, or the “No” button is pressed on the operation display unit 302 as shown in FIG. Later, the number of rose banknotes stored in the denominated rose banknote storage unit 34 is denominated even before the sorting process is completed by sending the rose banknotes to the denomination type banknote storage unit 34 by the sorting process. The distribution process may be interrupted and the withdrawal process may be performed when the number of denominations of the rose banknotes to be withdrawn is exceeded.

  Further, when the screen as shown in FIG. 9 or the screen as shown in FIG. 11 is displayed on the operation display unit 302, the operation display unit 302 selects that the “withdrawal process” is performed. In this case (“YES” in STEP 7 and “YES” in STEP 26), only the denominated rose banknotes withdrawn are denominated and the denomination of the denominated rose banknote storage unit 34 is insufficient. Instead of being paid by hand, “as much as possible” may be performed. Here, “withdrawal processing as much as possible” means that all the rose banknotes to be dispensed out of the rose banknotes stored in each denomination rose banknote storage unit 34 are paid out to the outside of the housing 12 and are insufficient. This refers to a process in which only the bills that are present are manually paid. In such “withdrawal processing as much as possible”, even for the denominated rose banknotes in which the amount of money of the denominated rose banknote storage unit 34 is insufficient, All the stored banknotes are paid out to the outside of the housing 12.

  Moreover, in the money depositing / withdrawing machine 1 of this Embodiment, the banknote payment processing in the banknote depositing / withdrawing apparatus 10 and the coin withdrawal processing in the coin depositing / withdrawing apparatus 110 can be performed in parallel. Also good. At this time, when the banknote depositing / withdrawing apparatus 10 is performing the sorting process of the loose banknotes as shown in FIG. 7B, the withdrawal process command accepting unit 320 accepts the withdrawal process command. The banknote deposit / withdrawal apparatus 10 may perform the banknote interruption / withdrawal process and the coin deposit / withdrawal apparatus 110 may perform the coin withdrawal process in parallel.

  According to the money depositing / withdrawing machine 1 (money processing apparatus) and the money handling method using such a money depositing / withdrawing machine 1 having the above-described configuration, the withdrawal process command receiving means 320 performs the withdrawal process. Is received from the temporary storage unit (specifically, the temporary deposit storage unit 30) to the currency storage unit (specifically, each denomination type banknote storage unit 34). Regardless of whether or not storage processing for transferring loose banknotes (specifically, sorting processing for distributing rose banknotes to each denomination for each denomination) is performed for each denomination type banknote storage unit. Each constituent member of the banknote depositing / dispensing apparatus 10 can perform a withdrawal process such that the bulky banknotes are fed out from the transporting section 34 to the transport section 18 and are then dispensed by the dispensing section (specifically, the bulk banknote dispensing section 24). To control . Thus, since the withdrawal process can be performed regardless of whether or not the storage process is being performed when a command related to the withdrawal process is received, the operator who intends to perform the banknote withdrawal process can store the banknote. There is no need to wait until the process is completed, and convenience for the operator can be improved.

  More specifically, in a conventional money depositing and dispensing machine, when performing deposit processing of loose banknotes, loose banknotes inserted into the housing by the input section are temporarily identified by the identification section and then temporarily stored in the temporary storage section. After all the banknotes are inserted into the housing by the input unit and sent to the temporary storage unit, when the operator inputs a deposit confirmation command, the banknotes are drawn out from the temporary storage unit It was supposed to be transferred to the type storage unit for each denomination, but during the storage process to transfer the rose banknotes for each denomination from the temporary holding unit to the money type storage unit, the deposit process is performed The operator or another operator cannot perform the withdrawal process for loose banknotes, and the operator trying to perform the withdrawal process for loose banknotes must wait until the storage process is completed, which is inconvenient. There was a problem. On the other hand, in the money depositing and dispensing machine 1 of the present embodiment, the withdrawal process can be performed regardless of whether or not the storage process is performed when a command related to the withdrawal process is received. Such a problem of the conventional money depositing and dispensing machine can be solved.

  Moreover, in the money depositing and dispensing machine 1 according to the present embodiment, as described above, the number of denominations of the rose banknotes stored in the denominated individual banknote storage unit 34 is stored in the storage unit 306. The control unit 300, when the withdrawal processing command accepting unit 320 accepts a command related to the withdrawal processing, determines the number of denominations of rose banknotes to be dispensed by the withdrawal processing. For all denominations to be deducted, the storage processing is interrupted when the number of denominations stored in the storage unit 306 and stored in the denomination type banknote storage unit 34 is equal to or less than the number of denominations. The withdrawal process is performed.

  In this case, when the command relating to the withdrawal process is accepted by the withdrawal process command accepting unit 320, the control unit 300 has at least one of the number of denominations of rose banknotes to be dispensed by the withdrawal process. When the number of denominations is larger than the number of denominations stored in the storage unit 306 and stored in the denomination type banknote storage unit 34 (“NO” in STEP 2), the storage is performed. The operator is made to select whether or not to perform the withdrawal process by interrupting the process (STEP 5). Specifically, a selection screen as shown in FIG. 8 is displayed on the operation display unit 302. Also, as shown in FIG. 8, the control unit 300 notifies the time until the storage process is completed when the operator selects whether or not to perform the withdrawal process by interrupting the storage process. It has become.

  Moreover, in the money depositing and dispensing machine 1 of the present embodiment, as described above, the control unit 300, when the operator selects to perform the withdrawal process by interrupting the storage process (“STEP 5“ YES "), the operator is further made to select a method of withdrawing the banknotes to be dispensed. Specifically, a selection screen as shown in FIG. 9 is displayed on the operation display unit 302. In such a selection screen, any one of “withdrawal processing”, “payment”, and “cancellation” is selected. Such an operation can be selected by the operator using the operation display unit 302 (STEP 6).

  Moreover, in the money depositing and dispensing machine 1 according to the present embodiment, as described above, the control unit 300 performs the withdrawal process when the withdrawal process command accepting unit 320 accepts a command related to the withdrawal process. The money of the rose banknote stored in the denomination type rose banknote storage unit 34 in which the number of at least one denomination among the number of denominations of rose banknotes to be withdrawn is stored in the storage unit 306. When the number of seeds and the storing process are larger than the total number of denominations of rose banknotes to be transferred to the denominated rose banknote storage unit 34, the operator is instructed to withdraw the rose banknotes to be withdrawn. It may be made to select. Specifically, in this case, a selection screen as shown in FIG. 11 is displayed on the operation display unit 302. In such a selection screen, “withdrawal processing” “payment” “ The operator can select one of “interrupt loading” and “cancel” by the operation display unit 302.

  In addition, the money depositing / withdrawing machine 1 by this Embodiment and the money processing method by such a money depositing / withdrawing machine 1 are not limited to an aspect as mentioned above, A various change can be added.

  For example, the money handling apparatus according to the present invention is not limited to the money depositing / dispensing machine 1 in which the banknote depositing / dispensing apparatus 10 and the coin depositing / dispensing apparatus 110 are combined. As the money handling apparatus according to the present invention, the banknote deposit / withdrawal apparatus 10 may be used alone, or the coin deposit / withdrawal apparatus 110 may be used alone. When the banknote depositing / dispensing device 10 is used alone, the control unit 300 and the dispensing process command receiving means 320 that perform the above functions are provided inside the housing 12 of the banknote depositing / dispensing device 10.

  Further, the money handling system according to the present invention may be configured by combining the above-described money depositing / dispensing machine 1 and an external device 310 such as a host terminal. In this case, the external device 310 such as a host terminal functions as a management device that manages the money depositing and dispensing machine 1.
