Description

  The present invention relates to a merchandise sales data processing apparatus and program.

A merchandise sales data processing apparatus that processes data related to merchandise sales is disclosed in Patent Document 1. In a large-scale store or department store that sells various products, a store that sells products such as meat and side dishes may open as a tenant. In such a tenant, generally, a product is weighed in front of a customer by a weighing device, and a product registration process is performed.
When each tenant sells products in cash, the registration process is performed following the registration process using the equipment installed in the individual tenant. After the registration process is performed in the existing apparatus, it is necessary to perform the settlement process in an apparatus (for example, a POS terminal such as a department store or a credit terminal) installed outside the tenant.
Therefore, for example, when performing accounting processing by credit, the store clerk performs credit accounting processing manually by the device outside the tenant while looking at the printed contents of the receipt printed and issued after the registration processing by the device within the tenant. As a result, input errors may occur during accounting. If the store clerk carefully inputs manually so as not to make an input error, it will take longer to wait for the customer, but if an input error occurs, cancellation processing etc. will be required, so the time to wait for the customer will be even longer. There was a problem.

  FIG. 6 is an explanatory diagram for explaining an example of a product registration method in the registration settlement apparatus 10. A plurality of registration methods are prepared as product registration methods in the registration settlement apparatus 10. Each product registration method will be described.

(Product registration method 1 in the registration settlement apparatus 10)
The first method is a method in which the scanner unit 104 reads a barcode attached to a product. The barcode attached to the product is, for example, a barcode printed on a product label affixed to a container such as a lunch box, or a product label affixed to the pack such as a side dish packed in a package. Bar code printed on the. In addition to the barcode, for example, a product name, a selling price, a mass, a calorie, a provider, and the like are printed on the product label. Further, the product label may be printed and issued using the registration settlement apparatus 10, or may be printed and issued using another apparatus.

  The barcode printed on the product label may be any barcode that can be recognized by the registered settlement apparatus 10 at least when the barcode is read. For example, when the registration settlement apparatus 10 can refer to the product name and sales price of the lunch box based on the product number of each lunch box (for example, a product file as shown in FIG. 5A is stored in the RAM 103 or the like. In such a case, the registration settlement apparatus 10 (or other apparatus) may issue a label on which a barcode that codes the product number of the lunch box is printed. In addition, for example, when the registered settlement apparatus 10 can refer to the product name and unit price (for example, unit price per 100 grams) of the side dish based on the product number of the side dish to be packed (for example, FIG. 5A). When the product file as shown in FIG. 5 is stored in the RAM 103 or the like, the registration settlement apparatus 10 (or other apparatus) issues a label printed with a barcode that encodes the product number and mass of the prepared food. Alternatively, although a reference to the unit price is not required, a label on which a barcode that encodes the product number and sales price of the prepared dish may be issued.

(Product registration method 2 in the registration settlement apparatus 10)
The second method is a method of using a preset button for each product displayed on the store clerk display unit 105. The store clerk S touches a preset button corresponding to the product instructed by the customer C, takes out the product instructed by the customer C from the display case and puts it in the container, and then puts the product in the container on the weighing platform 109a. Put it on. It is confirmed whether the mass of the product obtained by subtracting the mass of the container (tare) matches the mass indicated by the customer C (or the mass corresponding to the amount indicated by the customer C). If the masses do not match, the number of items in the container is increased or decreased to match. When the masses match, the product is registered by pressing an additional key (“×” key) on the key operation unit 108.

  The order of placing the container on the weighing platform 109a after touching the preset button may be the order of touching the preset button after placing the container on the weighing platform 109a.

(Product registration method 3 in the registration settlement apparatus 10)
The second method is a method using an electronic product tag 80 arranged for each product. The clerk S touches the electronic merchandise tag 80 corresponding to the merchandise instructed by the customer C, takes out the merchandise instructed by the customer C from the display case, puts it in the container, and then puts the merchandise in the container into the weighing platform. 109a. The procedure after placing the product in the container on the weighing platform 109a is the same as the registration method 2 described above. That is, in the registration method 3, instead of touching the preset button in the registration method 2, the electronic merchandise tag 80 is touched.

  The display content of the product registration screen shown in FIG. 6 shows the display content that is displayed when the clerk S registers the salad (300 grams) by touching the electronic product tag 80 corresponding to the salad. The display content is the same as that displayed when touching the button “salad” to register a salad (300 grams). Note that information that can distinguish whether the preset button is used (touched) or whether the electronic merchandise tag 80 is used (touched) may be displayed on the product registration screen.

  The order in which the containers are placed on the weighing platform 109a after the electronic merchandise tag 80 is touched may be in the order in which the containers are placed on the weighing platform 109a and then the electronic merchandise tag 80 is touched. However, the order of placing the container on the weighing platform 109a after touching the electronic merchandise tag 80 is more responsive to the operation of the clerk S than the order of touching the electronic merchandise tag 80 after placing the container on the weighing platform 109a. Good.

  FIG. 7 is an example of a small plan in the salesclerk display unit 105 of the registration settlement apparatus 10. When the clerk S registers salad (300 grams), fried chicken (three), cutlet bowl (small) (one), and touches the subtotal button 131 (see FIG. 6), the clerk display section In 105, a small plan plane as shown in FIG. 7 is displayed. It is also displayed that the price of the cutlet bowl (small) is 531 yen, 10% discount.

  A receipt button 135, a cash button 136, an electronic money button 137, and a credit button 138 are arranged on the small plan surface. The three buttons of the cash button 136, the electronic money button 137, and the credit button 138 may be collectively referred to as a settlement applicable button. Both the electronic money button 137 and the credit button 138 correspond to buttons other than cash for payment. Since the processing of the registration settlement apparatus 10 executed when the electronic money button 137 and the credit button 138 are pressed is the same, in the following description, as a payment method other than cash, An example will be described.

  In addition, there may be a gift certificate button or a cash voucher button as a payment type indicating a payment type different from the cash button 136, the electronic money button 137, and the credit button 138. This button is a button that is set to pay a part or all of the payment for the registered product at the face value of the gift certificate or cash voucher. In payment of gift certificates or cash vouchers, there are two types of settings: a setting that allows change payments and a setting that does not allow payments when there is a difference between the total amount of payment and the face value of the gift certificate or cash voucher. . If the face value of the gift certificate or cash voucher is larger than the total amount for payment, and if it is set to allow change payment, a receipt will be issued after the difference is paid as change, but change is not allowed to be paid If it is, even if there is a difference, a receipt is issued without paying out the change, and the process ends. In addition, when additional information is set, an additional information receipt, which will be described later, is issued regardless of whether or not change can be paid out. Note that a message corresponding to setting information indicating whether or not the change can be paid out may be notified to the operator on a display screen or the like.

  In addition, when the electronic money button 137 is pressed and the balance of the amount charged to the electronic money card or the like when the payment process is performed with the electronic money is insufficient, the electronic money is charged. A screen (not shown, but a screen on which a plurality of charges can be selected depending on the bill amount and the number of bills) is displayed (on the operator side display unit or the customer side display unit), and the charging process is completed. You may make it perform the payment process by electronic money later. In such a case, after issuing a charge receipt printed with the charge amount when the electronic money is charged, at least the detailed information of the registered product, the charge amount, the payment amount with the electronic money, and the electronic money Issue a detailed receipt with the balance (remaining amount) printed. If additional information is set, an additional information receipt, which will be described later, is also issued.

  The receipt button 135 in FIG. 7 is a button for issuing a receipt when the payment is cash. The cash button 136 is a button for paying when the payment is cash. After inputting the amount of cash deposited by the clerk S from the customer C by the key operation unit 108, the cash button 136 is touched to perform settlement, and a normal receipt and an additional information receipt described later are issued. Note that additional information receipts are not issued for products that do not have additional information. The receipt button 135 also serves as a cash button 136. When the receipt button 135 is pressed, a receipt is issued after a normal receipt and an additional information receipt, which will be described later, are issued in order. Is done. Note that additional information receipts are not issued for products that do not have additional information. If the receipt button 135 is pressed when there is no registration of the product, etc., the history is displayed on the screen for each transaction data (transaction receipt), and after that, the target transaction data (transaction receipt) is displayed. Is selected (designated), a receipt of the selected transaction data (transaction receipt) is issued. It should be noted that if the receipt has already been issued, it cannot be issued (prohibited). In addition, when the receipt is issued, the printout of the normal receipt headline is changed to “Details”, etc. The printout in the receipt in this case includes the subtotal amount, deposit, change amount, etc. The total amount area (total column) is not printed.

  The credit button 138 is a button used when the payment is credit payment. When the clerk S is informed by the customer C that the payment is by credit, a replacement receipt, a detail receipt, and an additional information receipt, which will be described later, are issued by touching the credit button 138. Note that additional information receipts are not issued for products that do not have additional information.

  FIG. 8 is a diagram showing an example of each receipt issued when the payment is cash. When the payment is cash, a normal receipt and an additional information receipt are issued. The normal receipt is a receipt including detailed information and a total amount. Detail information is the product name and price (if there are multiple identical products, the price is the price multiplied by the number, if the product is a product to be weighed, the price according to the measurement, and if there is a discount, The discount amount, the price after discount, and the discount price if discounted). The total price is the total price printed on the detailed information. An additional information receipt is a receipt including additional information related to a registered product. Additional information includes, for example, expiry date or expiration date, how to eat the product (how to warm up, storage temperature, etc.), the raw material of the product (eg, specified raw material, equivalent to the specified raw material), total calories of the product, PR Information, bean knowledge, etc.

  FIG. 8A shows an example of a normal receipt. For example, when salad (300 grams), fried chicken (3 pieces), cutlet bowl (small) (1 piece) is registered, as shown in FIG. Product name (salad, fried chicken, cutlet bowl (small)) and price (¥ 1,020 (price of salad according to measurement), ¥ 360 (price of fried chicken according to number), ¥ 531 (cutlet)価 格 (small) discounted price)) is printed, and a normal receipt 300 in which the total price (¥ 1,911) of all products is printed in the total price column 302 is issued.

  In this way, when the payment is cash, the replacement receipt described later is not issued, and the total receipt is included in the detailed receipt described later, so that it is issued as a normal receipt. It is economical because there is no such thing, and the clerk S and customer C are not confused.

  FIG. 8B shows an example of an additional information receipt. For example, when salad (300 grams), fried chicken (3), and cutlet bowl (small) (1) are registered, additional information is set for salad, fried chicken, and cutlet bowl (small) Since only the fried chicken is used (see FIG. 5), as shown in FIG. 8B, an additional information receipt 310 on which how to eat fried chicken is printed is issued. In addition, when additional information is set for each of a plurality of registered products, a plurality of additional information receipts 310 on which the additional information of each product is printed may be issued, or all products may be added. One additional information receipt 310 on which information is printed may be issued.

  In this way, since the additional information receipt printed with the additional information of the product is issued, for example, it is possible to know for each purchased product how to warm the product, how to eat, etc., so that the customer C can purchase Since the product can be warmed and eaten in the right way, the added value of the product can be further increased and the customer satisfaction can be expected to be improved.

  FIG. 9 is a diagram showing an example of each receipt issued when the payment is other than cash (in this embodiment, credit card payment). When the payment is a credit card, a replacement receipt, a detail receipt, and an additional information receipt are issued. The replacement receipt is a receipt used when the representative registration settlement apparatus 40 executes a settlement process using a credit card. The replacement receipt includes at least code information (barcode, readable code information such as a two-dimensional code) based on the registered product and the total amount of the registered product. The detailed receipt is a receipt that includes detailed information and does not include the total amount. That is, a receipt obtained by removing the total amount from the normal receipt (see FIG. 8A).

  FIG. 9A shows an example of a replacement receipt. For example, when salad (300 grams), fried chicken (3), and cutlet bowl (small) (1) are registered, code information 321a, 321b, 321c as shown in FIG. Is printed, and a replacement receipt 320 in which the total amount is printed in the total amount column 322 is issued. The code information 321a is obtained by encoding “1,020” which is a sales price of salad (300 grams) and “1” which is a department of salad (see FIG. 5). The code information 321b is obtained by coding ¥ 360, which is the selling price of fried chicken (3 pieces), and “3”, which is a section of fried chicken. The code information 321c is obtained by encoding ¥ 531 which is the selling price of the cutlet (small) (one) and “4” which is the department of the cutlet (small). The department is used as management information for an operator of a commercial facility.

  FIG. 9B illustrates an example of a detailed receipt. For example, when salad (300 grams), fried chicken (3 pieces), and cutlet bowl (small) (1 piece) are registered, as shown in FIG. Product name (salad, fried chicken, cutlet bowl (small)) and price (¥ 1,020 (price of salad according to measurement), ¥ 360 (price of fried chicken according to number), ¥ 531 (cutlet)価 格 (small) discounted price)) is printed, and a detailed receipt 330 is printed in which the total price (¥ 1,911) of all products is printed in the total price column 302. As shown in FIG. 9B, the total receipt etc. are not printed on the detailed receipt 330.

  FIG. 9C is a diagram showing an example of the additional information receipt, but the print content is the same as that of the additional information receipt of FIG. Note that the receipt of FIG. 9A is issued when the payment type is credit, and the receipt of FIG. 9B is issued when the payment type is other than credit. The total amount is shown in FIG. ) And not printed in FIG. 9B. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and the total amount may be printed on the receipt in FIG. 9B to issue a receipt. This is because, when the payment type is other than credit, the receipt shown in FIG. 9A is not issued, so the billed amount, the deposit amount, the change amount, and the total amount on the receipt shown in FIG. Is printed and issued. Accordingly, the form of issuing a receipt is changed depending on whether or not the payment is by credit.

  In addition, even if the payment type is credit and both of FIG. 9 (A) and FIG. 9 (B) are issued, the charge amount, deposit amount, change amount, and total amount are printed on both receipts. May be issued. In this case, the receipt shown in FIG. 9 (A) should be clearly printed (printed) indicating that it cannot be used as a receipt or a replacement receipt so that it can be clearly understood that it is not a receipt. .

  The representative registration settlement apparatus 40 includes a scanner unit that can read the code information printed on the replacement receipt 320. In the case of settlement with a credit card, the representative registration settlement apparatus 40 reads the code information by the scanner unit and acquires the amount and department indicated in the code information. Then, the representative registration settlement apparatus 40 uses the sum of the amounts indicated in the code information as a payment amount, and executes a settlement process using the credit card in cooperation with the credit card apparatus 41. The representative registration settlement apparatus 40 (or the credit card apparatus 41) issues a receipt (not shown) on which the payment amount (that is, the total amount) by the credit card is printed when the settlement is performed with the credit card. Receipts printed with credit card payments are handed over to customer C, and it is prohibited to issue double receipts that include the total amount. Instead of 300, a detailed receipt 330 that does not include the total amount (no total column) is issued.

  In this way, when the payment for the product is other than cash, the replacement receipt 320 is printed, in which the code information based on the registered product and the total amount of the registered product are printed. Registration can be performed accurately and quickly. In addition, when the payment for the product to be purchased is other than cash, the detailed receipt 330 printed with the detailed information is printed without printing the total amount, so what the customer C purchased, As for the amount of money, the same information as that of the normal receipt 300 can be obtained, and the customer C can shop with peace of mind because there is information on the product purchased at hand.

  In addition, when special sale information for discounting or discounting the price of the registered product is stored in advance and the special sale information of the registered product is stored, the total amount of the replacement receipt 320 is based on the special sale information. Issued at a discounted or discounted amount, issued with each item detail information of the item receipt 330 not including the total amount, including special sale information, and issued without additional information on the additional information receipt 310. The necessary information appropriate to the role of each receipt is printed, so there is no confusion in using the receipt, and if the product purchased by customer C is a special sale product, the product must be purchased cheaply Can be expected to improve customer satisfaction and store visits.

  Further, when the product purchased by customer C is a product to be weighed, it is issued including the weighed mass in each receipt issued (issued including 300 g of salad in the replacement receipt 320, Since the customer C can visually confirm the mass of the purchased product, the customer C can purchase it with peace of mind. For example, how to warm up according to the mass of the purchased product, etc. Can be printed on the receipt, so that the customer C can eat the purchased product in the state expected by the store, so that it can be expected to improve customer satisfaction and the store visit frequency.

  Next, the receipt will be explained. When the payment is cash, the store clerk S receives the receipt button 130 (see FIG. 6) or the receipt button 135 (see FIG. 7) between the start of product registration and the touch of the cash button 136. Touch (Ref.). Thereafter, when the clerk S touches the cash button 136, a receipt is issued. When the receipt is issued when the payment is cash, a detailed receipt 330 is issued in place of the normal receipt 300 in order to avoid issuing a receipt twice. In the following description, the period from the start of product registration to the touch of the cash button 136 may be referred to as “product registration in progress”.

  If the payment is credit payment, after executing the payment process using the credit card, the clerk S does not hand over the receipt including the total amount issued from the representative registration payment apparatus 40 to the customer. This is because, as described above, double issue of receipts including the total amount is prohibited. Then, the clerk S touches the receipt button 130 (see FIG. 6) in a state where the product is not being registered. Although the screen in FIG. 6 is a screen during product registration, a receipt button 130 is also arranged on the screen before registration. When the clerk S touches the receipt button 130 and inputs the amount by the key operation unit 108, the receipt is issued. The store clerk S gives the issued receipt to the customer.

The customer settlement screen A is a settlement information screen. When the cash button 156 is touched by the store clerk S, the CPU 201 calculates the total price of the purchased product and causes the customer display unit 206 to display the total price, the total score, and the discount meter. In addition, the CPU 201 causes the customer display unit 206 to display the current deposit amount and the change amount. Furthermore, the CPU 201 displays guidance information (for example, “please confirm the total amount and insert money”) prompting the customer C to insert money corresponding to the purchase amount on the customer display unit 206. Let

  The customer settlement screen B is an example of a screen displayed on the customer display unit 206 in a state where money is inserted by the customer C and the change machine 260 counts banknotes and money. When a bill and / or coins are inserted into the change machine 260 by the customer C, the change machine 260 counts the inserted money and notifies the CPU 201 of it. Next, the CPU 201 causes the customer display unit 206 to display the difference between the amount of money that has been inserted (deposit amount) and the deposit amount and the total amount. When the deposit amount is equal to or greater than the total amount, the CPU 201 sets a settlement key (“accounting”) that is a GUI button and guidance information that prompts the customer C to press the settlement key (for example, “accounting button if it is good” "Please press") is displayed on the customer display unit 206. Here, for example, the CPU 201 may highlight the settlement key until the customer C presses the settlement key. For example, as highlighting, there is a method in which the adjustment key is displayed as if it is three-dimensionally raised (emboss display), or the display color of the adjustment key is changed over time. If the deposit amount is less than the total amount, the CPU 201 may not display the settlement key.

  The customer checkout screen C is an example of a screen displayed on the customer display unit 206 when the checkout key is pressed by the customer C. When the settlement key is pressed by the customer C, if there is a difference, the CPU 201 discharges bills and / or coins corresponding to the difference to the change machine 260 and guides the customer C to receive change (for example, , “Please receive the change”) is displayed on the customer display unit 206.

  The customer checkout screen D is an example of a checkout end screen displayed on the customer display unit 206 when the issue port 210a discharges the payment receipt. When the issue port 210a is a commodity having the above-mentioned normal receipt and additional information for the transaction, and the additional information receipt is discharged to the discharge port, the CPU 201 guides the customer C to receive the receipt (for example, , “Please receive receipt”) on the customer display unit 206.

  FIG. 22 is a diagram illustrating processing executed by the registration device 11 from the registration of the product until the settlement device 20 is designated. In FIG. 22, the CPU 101 executes merchandise registration by the operation of the clerk S (step S301). The product registration here is registration of one or more products and registration of products by one or more registration devices 11. When the clerk S touches one of the settlement machine buttons 141 and the settlement machine 2 button 142 (step S303—YES), the CPU 101 transmits the settlement data to the designated settlement apparatus 20. (Step S304), and this process is terminated. At this time, the settlement apparatus 20 to which the settlement data is transmitted requests settlement data indicating the products registered by the store clerk S to all the registration apparatuses 11 except the registration apparatus 11 that has transmitted the settlement data. When there is a product registered by the store clerk S, the registration device 11 transmits the settlement data to the settlement device 20 that has requested the settlement data. The settlement apparatus 20 that has received the settlement data sets the received settlement data together as the settlement data for the product registered by the store clerk S.

  FIG. 23 is a diagram illustrating processing executed by the settlement apparatus 20 from when the salesclerk icon is touched to when a receipt or the like is issued on the settlement screen A.

  When the clerk icon is touched on the settlement screen A, the CPU 201 acquires settlement data corresponding to the touched clerk icon (step S401). Thereby, the settlement screen B is displayed. CPU201 determines whether cash button 156 was touched (Step S402). When it is determined that the cash button 156 is touched (step S402—YES), the CPU 101 performs a settlement process by the change machine 260 (step S403). Here, the settlement process is a process in which the change machine 260 accepts the insertion of banknotes and coins by the customer C and performs a deposit process, and if there is a change, discharges the banknotes and coins of the change.

  The CPU 201 determines whether or not the receipt button 155 has been touched (step S404). When the receipt button 155 has been touched (step S404-YES), the CPU 201 issues a receipt (normal) (step S405). Next, the CPU 201 issues a detailed receipt (step S407). The CPU 201 refers to the product file and determines whether additional information exists in the registered product (step S409). If additional information exists (step S409—YES), the CPU 201 refers to the additional information file, issues an additional information receipt (step S410), and ends this process. If there is no additional information (step S409—NO), the CPU 201 ends this process.

  In step S404, when the receipt button 155 is not touched (step S404-NO), the CPU 201 issues a normal receipt (step S408), and proceeds to step S409.

  If it is determined in step S402 that the cash button 156 is not touched and the credit button 158 is touched (step S402—NO), the CPU 101 issues a replacement receipt (step S406), and the process proceeds to step S407.

  FIG. 24 is a diagram illustrating a process when the receipt button 154 or the receipt button 155 is touched by the store clerk S. In FIG. 24, the CPU 201 determines whether or not the settlement screen B is being displayed (step S501). If the checkout screen B is being displayed (step S501—YES), the CPU 201 determines that the receipt button has been touched (step S506), and ends this process.

  When the settlement screen B is not being displayed (step S501-NO), the CPU 201 displays a double receipt receipt warning screen (step S502). On the receipt double issue warning screen, the clerk S can input permission or non-permission of reissue. On the receipt double issue warning screen, the CPU 201 determines whether or not a reissue permission has been input (step S503).

  If re-issuance is not permitted (step S503-NO), the CPU 201 ends this process without issuing a receipt. When permission for reissuance is input (step S503—YES), the CPU 201 issues a receipt (reissue) (step S505), and ends this process.

  In the first embodiment (the same applies to the second embodiment), the case where the payment is made with a credit card as the case where the payment is other than cash has been described. However, even when the payment is made with electronic money, the payment is made with the credit card. It may be the same as the case. That is, the registration settlement apparatus 10 according to the first embodiment (same as the settlement apparatus 20 according to the second embodiment) uses the credit card to perform the payment receipt 320 for credit card settlement in the representative registration settlement apparatus 40. However, if the electronic money is to be settled, the electronic money settlement replacement receipt in the representative registration settlement apparatus 40 (the printed content may be the same as or different from the credit card settlement receipt 320). Content may be issued). The same applies to the case where payment is made with a debit card or when payment is made using points on a point card issued by a department store or the like.

  In the second embodiment, the checkout device 20 issues various receipts (normal receipt 300, additional information receipt 310, replacement receipt 320, detailed receipt 330, additional information receipt 340, etc.), and the registration device 11 receives the receipt. However, the registration apparatus 11 may issue various receipts. For example, when the process in the checkout apparatus 20 cannot be performed immediately (when the checkout apparatus 20 is in use, cannot be used for communication via the network 90, etc.), the store clerk S issues various receipts in the registration apparatus 11. May be.

  In the second embodiment, the issue port 210a is provided only on the customer C side. However, an issue port for issuing a replacement receipt may be provided on the clerk S side. By providing an issue outlet for issuing a replacement receipt on the clerk S side, it is not necessary for the clerk S to move to the issue port 210a in order to receive the replacement receipt, and the receipt received by the customer C from the issue port 210a. Only an issue is issued, and an unnecessary replacement receipt is not issued to the customer C, so that a confusion such as the customer C receiving a replacement receipt by mistake does not occur.

  In the first embodiment and the second embodiment described above, cash, electronic money, gift certificates, and cash vouchers are taken as examples of payment types other than credits, but points (for example, member points) are given as other examples. Payment type.

  In payment by points, a card (for example, a magnetic card, an IC card, etc.) is used. This card stores at least identification information for identifying a customer. The registration settlement apparatus 10 and the settlement apparatus 20 described above are provided with a function of acquiring identification information from a card. For example, an identification information reading unit is provided in the registration settlement apparatus 10 and the settlement apparatus 20, or identification information is acquired from a reading apparatus that reads identification information. The registration settlement apparatus 10 and the settlement apparatus 20 inquire the identification information, for example, of a server that stores points and the like, and obtain the number of points held by the customer. At this time, information such as a customer name may be acquired.

  In the case of payment by points, for example, when 1 point is 1 yen, an amount corresponding to the point (hereinafter referred to as “point amount”) is calculated by multiplying the point held by the customer by 1 yen. In such payment by points, a receipt including detailed information (hereinafter referred to as “point payment receipt”) and additional information are set like the normal receipt 300 shown in FIG. If so, an additional information receipt 310 is issued. The point payment receipt is a receipt on which the number of points used in the current transaction, the remaining number of points, and the like are printed instead of the total amount field 302 of the normal receipt 300. Generally, when you pay with points, no points are generated in the transaction, but when points are paid even when you pay with points, points are given, so the number of points granted is also printed A point payment receipt is issued.

  In payment by points, the amount of points may be less than the total amount. In this case, the difference is paid depending on the payment type other than credit. Therefore, a screen for selecting a payment type other than credit is displayed on the display section 105 for clerk. When payment is made according to the selected payment type and payment is made, if a point payment receipt and additional information are set, an additional information receipt 310 is issued. Information including the payment type of the difference is printed on the point payment receipt in the case where the point amount is less than the total amount.

  In addition, when the customer himself / herself can make payment other than cash in the registration device 11 of the second embodiment, the registration device 11 transmits the payment data to the payment device 20 when the above-described payment is made. do not do.

In this case, an OK button that allows the customer name to be printed and an NG button that does not allow the customer name to be printed are displayed on the store clerk display unit 105. When the OK button is selected, the customer name is used as the address of the receipt. You may make it print.

  Although the first embodiment and the second embodiment have been described above, the registration settlement apparatus 10 of the first embodiment, the registration apparatus 11 and the settlement apparatus 20 of the second embodiment sell products to customers. The product sales data processing apparatus used sometimes, and when the payment of the product registered as the product to be purchased by the customer is the payment by credit, at least code information (for example, code information based on the registered product) 321a, 321b, 321c, etc.) printed on the first receipt (for example, replacement receipt 320), and a second receipt (for example, the detailed receipt 330, etc.) on which the detailed information of the registered product is printed. When the payment for the registered product is payment other than credit (for example, cash, electronic money, gift certificate, cash voucher, etc.), the first receipt Without issuing bets, issuing means for issuing a second receipt printing the detailed information of the registered goods, and a.

  According to the merchandise sales data processing apparatus (the registration settlement apparatus 10, the registration apparatus 11, and the settlement apparatus 20), when the price settlement of the commodity registered as the commodity purchased by the customer is other than cash, A first receipt printed with the code information based thereon and a second receipt printed with the detailed information of the registered product are issued. Accordingly, the representative registration / accounting apparatus 40 can input using the code information of the first receipt, so that the product can be sold accurately and quickly. Further, since the customer has a second receipt on which information on the purchased product is printed, the user can shop with peace of mind. The second receipt is a receipt on which at least detailed information is printed.

  In addition, the issuing means does not issue the first receipt and does not issue the first receipt when the payment for the registered commodity is other than the credit, for example, the printing of the detailed receipt 330 A normal receipt 300 and the like in which the total amount is further added as a print item to the item is issued. The normal receipt 300 corresponds to the second receipt because the detailed information is printed.

  In this way, when the payment is cash, unnecessary receipts (return receipts) are not issued, but necessary receipts (ordinary receipts with detailed product information and total amount printed) are issued. Is done. Therefore, it is economical and does not confuse store staff and customers.

  The issuing means has additional information (for example, information on how to warm or eat the product) set for the registered product (for example, when additional information is stored in the additional information file). Then, a third receipt (for example, the additional information receipt 310) on which the additional information is printed is issued. In the second embodiment, the additional information is stored in another device (for example, the management server 30 or the like), and the settlement apparatus 20 (same as the registration device 11) can be contacted with another device by inquiring from another device. Additional information may be acquired. In the first embodiment, the additional information (additional information file) is stored in another device (for example, the server 4), and the registration settlement apparatus 10 makes additional information from another device by making an inquiry to the other device. May be obtained.

  In other words, if additional information is set in advance for each product, the store clerk provides the customer with a receipt printed with the additional information of the product, and the customer uses the optimal method with reference to the additional information printed on the receipt. You can eat the goods. As a result, the added value of the product is further increased and the customer satisfaction is improved, so the frequency of visits can be increased.

At the same time, when the first receipt is issued, the first receipt printed with the total amount based on the sale information is issued (for example, a replacement receipt 320 printed with the discounted total amount is issued). When issuing the third receipt, the third receipt that does not print the sale information (for example, the additional information receipt 340 that does not print the discounted price) To issue. In the second embodiment, the bargain information is stored in another device (for example, the management server 30), and the settlement device 20 (same as the registration device 11) makes an inquiry from the other device to another device. Special sale information may be acquired. In the first embodiment, the sale information is stored in another device (for example, the server 4), and the registration settlement apparatus 10 may obtain the sale information from the other device by inquiring of the other device. Good. In the present embodiment, “discount” is used as an example of the sale information in the product file of FIG. 5A, but “discount” may be used. In this case, a “discount”, “main price after discount”, and “consumption tax after discount” indicating the discount amount are provided in the product file. By doing so, the discount amount or the like can be printed on various receipts or the like, or the discount amount or the like can be displayed on the product registration screen or the customer settlement screen.

  In other words, if special sale information is set in advance for each product, the issuing means stores information related to the special sale according to the role of each receipt issued when the special sale information of the registered product is stored. Printed. In addition to simplifying the printing content according to the role and making it less likely to cause confusion, customers can confirm that they have purchased special products at special prices, which also improves customer satisfaction. it can.

  Further, the merchandise sales data processing apparatus (the registration settlement apparatus 10 of the first embodiment, the registration apparatus 11 of the second embodiment) is a weighing unit (for example, the weighing unit 109) that measures the mass of the merchandise sold to the customer The issuing means issues at least the second receipt printed with the measured mass when the product to be sold to the customer is the product to be weighed. For example, 300 g of salad is printed on the replacement receipt 320 and issued, 300 g of salad is printed on the detailed receipt 330, and 300 g of salad is printed on the normal receipt 300 and issued.

  As a result, the customer can visually confirm the mass of the purchased product, so that the customer can purchase it with peace of mind.For example, the store can print on the receipt how to warm the product according to the mass of the product purchased by the customer. Since the customer can eat the purchased product in the expected state, the customer satisfaction can be improved and the frequency of visits can be increased.

  Further, in the second embodiment, the settlement data is directly transmitted from the registration device 11 to the settlement device 20, but the settlement data is directly transmitted from the registration device 11 to the settlement device 20 designated by the store clerk S.
