An icon i indicating "no receipt is required" is displayed in the member information area displayed in the section 28 (step S5). As a result, it is possible to prevent the operator from being confused by not outputting the receipt.

Further, when it is determined that the electronic receipt issuance instruction has been given (Yes in step S3), the CPU 21 (electronic receipt generation unit 26) of the POS terminal 2 transmits the product transaction data to the corporate headquarters server, and what is the product transaction data? Separately, based on the product information registered at the time of payment by product sales data processing and the payment information, the company code (identification code of the company that operates the store), industry / business type code, store code, consumer membership code, The POS number, receipt number, product sales data, etc. of the POS terminal 2 are extracted from the identification code management area 23a provided in the storage unit 23, converted into an electronic receipt format, and electronic receipt information is generated (step S6). The electronic receipt information is generated in a data format such as text, XML, JSON, etc., which has a relatively small file size.

Next, the CPU 21 (transmission unit 27) of the POS terminal 2 connects to the in-store LAN 4 and the network 5 via the network interface 24, transmits the generated electronic receipt information to the electronic receipt server 6 (step S7), and processes. To finish. If it is determined that there is no electronic receipt issuance instruction, a paper receipt is printed and issued, and the product transaction data is sent to the headquarters server to end the process.

If the CPU 21 of the POS terminal 2 goes into an offline state when transmitting product transaction data (transaction data) to the headquarters server, the following measures are taken to avoid the failure.
1. 1. Automatic execution of retry transmission.
2.1. If it is not possible to deal with it, the product transaction data (transaction data) is stored until online recovery, and then sent to the headquarters server after online recovery. In this case, the CPU 21 of the POS terminal 2 displays on the operator display unit 28, such as "Commodity transaction data (transaction data) will be transmitted later."

On the other hand, when the "receipt issuance" button Q2 is operated by the operator via the input unit 31, the CPU 21 (electronic receipt issuance instruction unit 61) of the POS terminal 2 determines that the receipt issuance instruction has been given.

When it is determined that the receipt issuance instruction has been given (No in step S3, Yes in step S8), the CPU 21 (receipt printing unit 62) of the POS terminal 2 prints and issues a receipt related to the product sales data from a printer (not shown). Step S9). When it is detected that the electronic receipt information has fallen into an offline state, the CPU 21 (electronic receipt generation unit 26) of the POS terminal 2 prints and issues a paper receipt. In this case, the CPU 21 (electronic receipt generation unit 26) of the POS terminal 2 displays on the operator display unit 28 and the customer display unit 30 that "the electronic receipt is issued after the network failure is resolved", and also on the paper receipt " The electronic receipt will be issued after the network failure is resolved.
