  First, electronic receipt processing executed by the control unit 11 of the POS terminal 1 operating according to the receipt data processing program 17a will be described with reference to FIGS.

  As shown in FIG. 6, the receipt data processing program 17a executed by the POS terminal 1 functions as a receipt data generation unit 111 functioning as a receipt data generation unit, a receipt data output unit 112, and an electronic function functioning as an electronic receipt output unit. It has a module configuration including a receipt output unit 113 and an inquiry unit 114 functioning as an inquiry unit. As actual hardware, when the CPU of the control unit 11 reads out and executes the receipt data processing program 17a from the storage unit 17, the above units are loaded onto the RAM, and the receipt data generation unit 111, receipt data output unit 112, electronic The receipt output unit 113 and the inquiry unit 114 are generated on the RAM.

  The inquiry unit 114 transmits an identification code of the credit card, which is an electronic payment server via the network N 2, the electronic receipt server 3, and the network N 3, at the time of payment processing by a credit card which is payment means (payment medium for payment). It transmits to the receipt management server 4 and inquires about a member code (recipient code) specifying a customer (recipient) associated with the identification code of the credit card.

  The receipt data generation unit 111 is a functional unit corresponding to an existing application that mainly performs product sales data processing and generation of receipt printing data (receipt data). When the receipt data generation unit 111 acquires the product code specifying the product via the code scanner 15, the receipt data generation unit 111 reads out the product data corresponding to the product code from the product data file, and the settlement amount is calculated based on the unit price included in the product data. Execute commodity sales data processing to be calculated. Then, the receipt data generation unit 111 generates commodity sales data processed in the commodity sales data processing, that is, receipt data including transaction contents of the commodity.

  Further, when the receipt data generation unit 111 acquires a membership code (recipient code) specifying the customer (recipient) via the code scanner 15 at any timing during one transaction, a receipt including the member code is received. Generate data. The receiver code is not limited to the membership code, and may be an identification code that can identify the receiver.

  Further, the receipt data generation unit 111 is a member code (recipient code) associated with an identification code related to a credit card that is payment means (payment medium) via the network N3, the electronic receipt server 3, and the network N2. If there is a response, the receipt data including the membership code is generated.

  FIG. 7 is a view schematically showing an example of receipt data. Here, the receipt data is text data or the like in an unstructured form, and is used for printing on the printer 13. As shown in FIG. 7, the receipt data includes the elements of the commodity sales data D1 and the membership code D2 described above. Here, the commodity sales data D1 includes the commodity name (commodity code) of the commodity to be settled and the amount thereof, the total amount of each commodity, the deposit amount paid by the customer, the fishing amount and the like.

  Further, the receipt data includes elements such as a transaction date D7, a transaction number (receipt number) D8, a register number D9, and a person-in-charge name D10. The elements included in the receipt data are not limited to the example shown in FIG. 7, but a company code (company name) indicating a company that operates a store, a store code (store name), a store telephone number, an address, a business type and business format code And other elements may be included.

  Further, when the receipt data generation unit 111 receives pressing of the closing key, it determines that the commodity sales data processing for one transaction has been completed, and outputs (issues) the generated receipt data to the receipt data output unit 112 together with the cut command. Do. Here, the cut command is one of the generally used printer control commands, and is instruction information for instructing cutting (cutting) of a sheet on which receipt data is to be printed. The receipt data may be generated in a batch with the pressing of the closing key, or may be sequentially generated each time a product code or a customer code is acquired.

  The receipt data output unit 112 determines an output destination of the receipt data each time the receipt data generation unit 111 generates receipt data for one transaction. More specifically, when the receipt data generation unit 111 issues a cut command, the receipt data output unit 112 determines that receipt data for one transaction has been generated. Then, the receipt data output unit 112 determines whether the generated receipt data includes a member code, and outputs the receipt data to an output destination determined according to the determination result.

  Specifically, when it is determined that the receipt data does not include the membership code, the receipt data output unit 112 outputs the receipt data to the printer 13 together with the cut command. Thus, after printing receipt data on a sheet, the printer 13 prints out a sheet receipt for one transaction by cutting the sheet according to a cut command. At the time of print output, all elements constituting the receipt data may be printed, or a member code or the like may be removed or printing may be performed with other information such as an advertisement added.

  If the electronic receipt output unit 113 determines that the receipt data includes the membership code, the electronic receipt output unit 113 converts the receipt data into a predetermined data format in accordance with the conversion rule of the receipt data schema 17c. Then, the receipt data output unit 112 transmits (outputs) the receipt data in which the data format is converted, that is, the electronic receipt, to the electronic receipt server 3 that manages in company units according to the company code.

  Here, FIG. 8 is a view schematically showing an example of the electronic receipt. As shown in FIG. 8, the electronic receipt is composed of data (structured document) in a structured format such as XML, CSV, JSON (JavaScript (registered trademark) Object Notation) or the like. Note that FIG. 8 shows an example in which each element (D 1 to 2 and D 7 to D 10) of the receipt data shown in FIG. 7 is converted into the JSON format.

  The conversion from receipt data to electronic receipt is performed based on the conversion rule described in receipt data schema 17c. Specifically, in the receipt data schema 17c, predetermined elements constituting the receipt data and attribute information (tag or the like) indicating an attribute of the elements are defined. The receipt data output unit 112 generates an electronic receipt of a structured format as shown in FIG. 8 by structuring each element of the receipt data using the corresponding attribute information. By using such a structured electronic receipt, elements included in the electronic receipt can be efficiently used, so that various advantages can be obtained in data management.

  As described above, the receipt data output unit 112 determines that receipt data for one transaction has been generated by issuance of a cut command by the receipt data generation unit 111, and starts output of the receipt data. As a result, there is no need to notify the receipt data output unit 112 of a dedicated signal for instructing the end of one transaction from the receipt data generation unit 111. Therefore, the receipt data generation unit 111 corresponding to the existing application is not particularly limited. The receipt data output unit 112 can output receipt data for one transaction without changing the above. Further, since the changed portion of the receipt data generation unit 111 can be suppressed, the output function of the electronic receipt can be realized while efficiently using the existing application.

  Further, the receipt data output unit 112 determines the output destination of the receipt data in accordance with whether or not the receipt data includes the member code. As a result, the paper receipt or the electronic receipt can be output without preparing the necessity information of the paper receipt for each customer, so the output destination of the receipt data can be efficiently determined. Further, for example, the customer (member) can select the output of the paper receipt or the electronic receipt by inputting or not inputting the membership code for each transaction, so that the convenience of the customer can be improved. .

  Furthermore, when outputting receipt data to the electronic receipt server 3, the electronic receipt output unit 113 converts an element included in the receipt data into a structured electronic receipt, and outputs the electronic receipt. Thus, the elements included in the electronic receipt can be efficiently used. Therefore, in the electronic receipt server 3 and the electronic receipt management server 4 that manage the electronic receipt, and the portable terminal 7 that displays the electronic receipt, The convenience of the electronic receipt can be improved.

  FIG. 9 is a flowchart showing the flow of the electronic receipt process in the POS terminal 1. First, the receipt data generation unit 111 of the POS terminal 1 determines whether the code symbol (product code) attached to the product or the code symbol (member code) displayed on the portable terminal 7 is read by the code scanner 15. It determines (step S11). If the code symbol is not read (step S11; No), the receipt data generation unit 111 proceeds to step S16.

  On the other hand, when the receipt data generation unit 111 determines that the code symbol has been read (step S11; Yes), the receipt data generation unit 111 determines whether the information acquired by the reading is a product code or a member code (step S12).

  When the product code is obtained in step S12 (step S12; product code), the receipt data generation unit 111 reads the product data from the product data file for the product specified by the product code, and the product data includes A commodity sales data process for calculating the settlement amount based on the unit price is executed (step S13). Next, the receipt data generation unit 111 generates receipt data including the commodity sales data processed in the commodity sales data processing (step S14).

  When the membership code is acquired in step S12 (step S12; membership code), the receipt data generation unit 111 generates receipt data including the membership code (step S15).

  Here, in order to input the member code into the POS terminal 1, for example, the customer who is a member displays a code symbol including the member code etc. on the display unit 73 of the portable terminal 7, and the customer who is a clerk or a member himself The code scanner 15 of the POS terminal 1 reads it. The receipt data generation unit 111 may perform an exclusion process or the like so that the member code input during one transaction is unique.

  In the subsequent step S16, the receipt data generation unit 111 determines whether the start of the closing process by the credit card is instructed by pressing the credit key or the like (step S16). When the start of the closing process by the credit card is not instructed (Step S16; No), the process returns to Step S11. When the start of the closing process by the credit card is instructed (step S16; Yes), the closing process by the credit card (credit settlement process) when the membership code is acquired in the step S12 (step S17; Yes) Are executed (step S18).

  On the other hand, if the receipt data generation unit 111 does not obtain the membership code in step S12 (step S17; No), the identification code of the credit card is sent via the network N2, the electronic receipt server 3, and the network N3. It is transmitted to the electronic receipt management server 4 to inquire the membership code associated with the identification code of the credit card (step S19).

  The receipt data generation unit 111 receives a response from the electronic receipt management server 4 via the network N3, the electronic receipt server 3, and the network N2 to the member code associated with the identification code of the credit card (step S20; Yes), the membership code is included in the receipt data (step S21), and the process proceeds to step S18.

  If there is no response from the electronic receipt management server 4 to the member code associated with the identification code of the credit card (step S20; No), the receipt data generation unit 111 proceeds directly to step S18.

  After execution of the closing process (credit settlement process), the receipt data generation unit 111 generates receipt data for one transaction indicating the details of the transaction of the product to be settled related to the credit settlement process (step S22). When the receipt data generation unit 111 executes closing processing (credit settlement processing), it also generates, as receipt data, settlement slip data (customer refusal) which is a proof of the credit settlement processing and has a preset format. .

  Next, the receipt data generation unit 111 issues (outputs) a cut command to the receipt data output unit 112 (step S23).

  Receipt data output unit 112, upon receiving the cut command from receipt data generation unit 111, determines that receipt data for one transaction has been generated, and determines whether or not the receipt data includes a membership code (step S24). ).

  If the receipt data does not include the membership code (step S24; No), the receipt data output unit 112 prints out the receipt data by outputting the receipt data for one transaction to the printer 13 together with the cut command ( Step S25), this processing ends. Thus, after printing receipt data on a sheet, the printer 13 prints out a sheet receipt for one transaction by cutting the sheet according to a cut command.

  The printer 13 also prints out payment slip data (customer refusal), which is a proof of the credit payment processing, and has a preset format.

  On the other hand, when the membership code is included in the receipt data (step S24; Yes), the electronic receipt output unit 113 generates the electronic receipt by converting the data format of the receipt data which is the unstructured format into the structured format. (Step S26).

  Note that the electronic receipt output unit 113 converts the data format of payment slip data (customer refusal), which is a proof of credit payment processing and is a preset format, into an electronic receipt by converting it into a structured format.

  Then, the electronic receipt output unit 113 transmits the electronic receipt generated via the communication I / F 16 to the electronic receipt server 3 (step S27), and the process ends.

  In the above process, when the receipt data includes the membership code, the receipt data is output to the electronic receipt server 3. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and the receipt data may be output to both the printer 13 and the electronic receipt server 3. It is also good.

  If the receipt data includes a membership code, the output destination of the receipt data may be selected. For example, the portable terminal 7 may hold output classification information for specifying an output destination of receipt data in a code symbol to be displayed, and select an output destination based on the output classification information. In the case of this form, the receipt data generation unit 111 includes the output classification information read by the code scanner 15 in the receipt data together with the membership code. If the receipt data output unit 112 determines that the receipt data includes the member code and determines that the output classification information exists, the receipt data output unit 112 determines the output destination of the receipt data based on the output classification information. Note that either one or both of the printer 13 and the electronic receipt server 3 can be specified as the output classification information.

  Further, the output destination of the receipt data may be selected each time the product is settled. In the case where this form is used, for example, when it is determined that the receipt data includes the membership code, the receipt data output unit 112 displays an output destination selection screen for selecting the output destination of the receipt data on the display unit 14. .

  The display of the selection screen is not limited to the operator display 14a, and may be displayed on the customer display 14b. When the customer display 14 b has a touch panel configuration, the customer may select the output destination.

  In addition, it may be possible to confirm the output destination of the receipt data to the customer during processing of the product sales data processing. When this form is used, the receipt data generation unit 111 displays the output destination selection screen or the like on the display unit 14 The output data corresponding to the operated operator is included in the receipt data as output classification information. Then, when the receipt data includes the membership code and the output classification information, the receipt data output unit 112 determines the output destination of the receipt data based on the output classification information.

  As described above, when the receipt data includes the membership code, the receipt data output unit 112 automatically selects an output destination of the receipt data, or receives a manual selection of the output destination. Thus, the method of determining the output destination can be flexibly switched, and the output destination of the receipt data can be efficiently determined.
