If the current search date is today, the next day does not exist, so the operation of the right arrow key 511b is invalid.
When it is determined that the touch operation of the right arrow key 511b has not been detected (step S2; NO), the CPU 21 proceeds to step S4.

In step S4, the CPU 21 determines whether or not a touch operation of the left arrow key 511c has been detected by the operation unit 22 (step S4).
When it is determined that the touch operation of the left arrow key 511c has been detected (step S4; YES), the CPU 21 changes the current search date to the previous day, and the “date” item in the electronic journal file 40 is changed to the current one. The transaction data on the search date of is retrieved and displayed in the list display unit 512 as a list, and the image of the receipt corresponding to the transaction data at the cursor position on the list is displayed in the second area 52 (step S5), and step S6. Move to.
When determining that the touch operation of the left arrow key 511c is not detected (step S4; NO), the CPU 21 proceeds to step S6.

In step S6, the CPU 21 determines whether or not a touch operation (list touch operation) on any row of the list displayed on the list display unit 512 of the first area 51 is detected by the operation unit 22 (step S6). S6).
When determining that the wrist touch operation has been detected (step S6; YES), the CPU 21 moves the cursor to the touched line (step S7), and based on the image data of the transaction data at the cursor position, the transaction at the cursor position is performed. The image of the receipt issued when the data is recorded in the electronic journal file 40 is displayed in the second area 52 (step S8), and the process proceeds to step S9.
When it is determined that the wrist touch operation is not detected (step S6; NO), the CPU 21 proceeds to step S9.

In step S9, the CPU 21 determines whether or not the touch operation of the function key 53 is detected by the operation unit 22 (step S9).
When it is determined that the touch operation of the function key 53 is detected (step S9; YES), the CPU 21 executes the function selection execution process (step S10), and proceeds to step S11.
When it is determined that the touch operation of the function key 53 is not detected (step S9; NO), the CPU 21 proceeds to step S11.

  FIG. 8 is a flowchart showing the flow of the function selection execution processing executed in step S10 of FIG. The function selection execution processing is executed by the cooperation of the CPU 21 and the electronic journal program 251.

  In the function selection execution process, the CPU 21 first causes the function list screen 60 to be pop-up displayed on the electronic journal screen 50 displayed on the display unit 24a (step S201).

FIG. 11 is a diagram showing an example of a receipt printed when “entire printing” is selected. In the "entire print", the receipts corresponding to all the transaction data listed in the first area 51 are collectively printed in time series, so that, for example, you want to confirm all the transactions performed on a certain date. In this case, if the transaction data of the date is displayed in a list in the first area 51 and the "entire print" function is used, the operator can efficiently confirm the data of all the transaction of the date.

The “entire printing (with information)” is a function of arranging the receipts issued when each of the transaction data listed in the first area 51 is recorded in the electronic journal file 40 and collectively printing by the printing unit 28. This is a function of adding preset information (for example, main information such as serial number, time, person in charge, etc.) 28d of each receipt to the head of each receipt for printing.
FIG. 12 is a diagram showing an example of a receipt printed when “entire printing (with information)” is selected. As shown in FIG. 12, in the “entire printing (with information)”, the receipts corresponding to all the transaction data listed in the first area 51 are preceded by a serial number, time, and person in charge. Since it prints all the data in a time series with the addition of key information such as the operator, it is possible for the operator to determine, for example, whether the transaction you want to check is at the timing of the day's work flow, or who operated it. If it knows, even if it doesn't know the serial number and the exact time of the transaction, it will find which receipt is the transaction to be confirmed by the information 28d at the beginning attached to each receipt. It is possible to efficiently confirm the data of the transaction to be confirmed.

  The “whole summary print” is obtained by acquiring a part of the information of the receipt issued when each of the transaction data listed in the first area 51 is recorded in the electronic journal file 40. This is a function of printing information by arranging the information side by side. As the information to be printed, for example, as shown in FIG. 13A, of the receipt information issued for each of the listed transaction data, the type of image data shown in FIG. 4 is a message. The information of n lines (an integer of n ≧ 1. For example, n = 5) (the information not shaded in FIG. 13A) from the beginning of the header except for is acquired and printed side by side. Alternatively, only the header may be printed. Alternatively, only the header and the last three lines of the text may be printed (at the end of the text, there is information such as the payment amount). The operator can set which information of the receipt is printed by a predetermined operation of the operation unit 22, but at least the transaction type, the transaction specific information, the date and time information, the person in charge information, and a part of the transaction statement information. Either is included.

  FIG. 13B is a diagram showing an example of a receipt printed when “whole summary print” is selected. As shown in FIG. 13B, in the “whole summary print”, not all information of each receipt issued when each of the plurality of transaction data displayed in the list is recorded in the electronic journal file 40, Only the information on the main items, which is a part of each receipt, is printed as a summary, for example, side by side with the print image when each receipt was issued, so you can print all the information on the receipt. It consumes less paper than "(with information)", and it is easy to find the information of necessary items from the entire printed sheet, and the operator can efficiently confirm the transaction data that he wants to confirm. Some information on each receipt printed includes a header (transaction type, transaction specific information, date and time information, person in charge information, number of customers), and part of the text (transaction statement information). If the operator knows what transaction he / she wants to carry out at the timing of the day's work flow, who operated it, what transaction, etc. Even if you do not know the time, you can find out which receipt is the transaction you want to confirm from the summary of each receipt, and you can efficiently confirm the data of the transaction you want to confirm. Also, by displaying a part of the transaction details (text) in addition to the header, it is possible to give the operator awareness to identify the receipt of the transaction to be confirmed, and efficiently identify the data of the transaction to be confirmed. It becomes possible to confirm.

  “Printing for my own operation” is the same as the person in charge of the “person in charge” (the person currently logged in to the information processing apparatus 1) among the transaction data listed in the first area 51. This is a function of arranging only the receipts issued when the corresponding transaction data are recorded in the electronic journal file 40 and printing them by the printing unit 28.

With the “character string search” function, the transaction data displayed in the list in the first area 51 can be narrowed down to those having a desired character string.

The CPU 21 determines whether or not it has been detected that a touch operation has been performed on any item from the function list screen 60 by the operation unit 22 (step S202).
When it is determined that the touch operation of any item is not detected from the function list screen 60 (step S202; NO), the CPU 21 proceeds to step S206.

  When it is determined that the touch operation of any item is detected from the function list screen 60 by the operation unit 22 (step S202; YES), the CPU 21 determines whether the touch-operated item is the print function or the search function. Yes (step S203).

  When it is determined that the touch-operated item is the print function (step S203; printing), the CPU 21 acquires the transaction data to be printed from the electronic journal file 40 based on the touch-operated item (step S204). ). Then, the CPU 21 outputs, based on the image data included in the acquired transaction data, an output format (normal output (receipt is output as is), output with information, output with summary, output with cut, etc.) according to the touched item. ), The printing unit 28 prints the receipt (step S205), and the process proceeds to step S206. For example, if the touch-operated item is "whole summary print", information of a part of the receipt (N lines from the beginning of the header) is acquired from the image data of each acquired transaction data and the acquired information is displayed side by side. The printing unit 28 prints.

In step S206, the CPU 21 determines whether or not a touch operation on the close key 60b has been detected from the function list screen 60 by the operation unit 22 (step S206).
When it is determined that the touch operation on the close key 60b is not detected (step S206; NO), the CPU 21 returns to step S202.
When it is determined that the touch operation on the close key 60b is detected (step S206; YES), the CPU 21 proceeds to step S11 in FIG.

On the other hand, when it is determined in step S203 that the touched item is the search function (step S203; search), the CPU 21 pops up a search condition input screen corresponding to the touched item on the display unit 24a. (Step S207).
For example, if the touched item is "serial number search", the serial number input screen is displayed, "person search" is the input screen of the person in charge, and "character string search" is the character string Display the input screen. Also display the keyboard.

  When the search condition is input from the input screen, the CPU 21 searches the transaction data of the date displayed in the search date display field 511a of the first area 51 for the transaction data corresponding to the input condition ( Step S208). Then, the function list screen 60 and the input screen are closed by the display unit 24a to display the search results in the first area 51 of the electronic journal screen 50 (step S209), and the process proceeds to step S11 in FIG.

In step S11 of FIG. 5, the CPU 21 determines whether or not the touch operation of the close key 54 is detected by the operation unit 22 (step S11).
When it is determined that the touch operation of the close key 54 by the operation unit 22 is not detected (step S11; NO), the CPU 21 returns to step S2.
When it is determined that the touch operation of the close key 54 is detected by the operation unit 22 (step S11; YES), the CPU 21 closes the electronic journal screen 50 to end the electronic journal printing process, and displays the original screen on the display unit 24a. Display it.

As described above, according to the information processing device 1, the CPU 21 records the transaction data regarding the conducted transaction in the electronic journal file 40 and issues the receipt based on the transaction data. When the “total summary print” is touch-operated from the function list screen 60, the CPU 21 issues when each of the plurality of transaction data listed in the electronic journal screen 50 is recorded in the electronic journal file 40. Part of the information of each receipt thus obtained is acquired, and the acquired information is arranged as a summary and printed by the printing unit 28.
Therefore, not all the information of the receipt issued when each of the plurality of transaction data displayed in the list is recorded in the electronic journal file 40, but a part of the information can be arranged and printed as a summary. It is easy to find the information of the necessary items from the entire list, and it is possible for the operator to efficiently check the transaction data that he wants to check. Further, compared to “entire printing” or “entire printing (with information)” which prints all information of receipts issued when each of the plurality of transaction data displayed in the list is recorded in the electronic journal file 40. The consumption of paper can be suppressed.

  Also, by printing so that at least one of the transaction type, transaction specific information, date and time information, person in charge information, and transaction detail information is included as a part of the information of each receipt, it is possible to confirm the transaction to be confirmed. If the operator knows when the transaction was performed at what timing in the day-to-day business process, who operated it, what transaction, etc., the serial number and the exact time of the transaction. Even if you do not have it, you can find out which receipt is for the transaction you want to check from the summary of each receipt, and you can efficiently check the data of the transaction you want to check. In addition, since a part of the transaction details (text) is displayed, it is possible to give the operator an awareness for specifying the receipt of the transaction to be confirmed.

  In addition, the plurality of transaction data to be printed are the transaction data recorded on the designated day, which are listed in the first area 51, so that the operator can confirm the transaction data on the designated day. It is possible to check the data efficiently.

  Also, by using the search function to set the multiple transaction data to be printed as transaction data that matches the specified conditions among the multiple transaction data recorded on the specified date, the operator can specify the specified date. It is possible to efficiently confirm the transaction data that matches the conditions among the transaction data of.

The description content in the above embodiment is a suitable example of the information processing apparatus according to the present invention, and is not limited to this.
For example, in the above-described embodiment, the function key 53 and the transaction data listed in the first area 51 are linked, and when the function key 53 is operated, the transaction data listed in the first area 51 is displayed. Although the print target or the search target is acquired from among the above, the current value is displayed when the function key 53 is operated without linking the function key 53 with the transaction data listed in the first area 51. The print target or the search target may be acquired from the entire transaction data on the date specified by the search date. By linking the function key 53 with the transaction data displayed in the list in the first area 51, it is possible to limit the transaction data targeted for the function by the function key 53 to the one displayed in the list. Further, by not linking the function key 53 with the transaction data displayed in the list in the first area 51, all the transaction data of one day on the specified day is always targeted by the function key 53 regardless of the list display. It becomes possible to do.
