FIG. 2 shows the configuration of the system controller 1 which is a sales registration device.
Includes a central processing unit (CPU) 11 which executes a control operation by a program, to which a RAM 13 and a ROM 14 storing an operation program are connected via a bus line 12. I / O interface 15 on bus line 12
Is connected, and the kitchen side chit printer 3, the service station side chit printer 4, the receipt journal printer 5, the drawer 6, the display 7, and the keyboard 8 are
It is connected to the CPU 11 via the O interface 15.
Further, an optical communication controller 16 is connected to the bus line 12, and the photosensor 10 of the order receiving device 2 is connected to the optical communication controller 16.

The CPU 11 controls this system based on the program stored in the ROM 14, and the ROM 14 has a program for each task and a task for order acceptance, cooking instruction work, order statement issuance work, and cash register work. A program that controls the program is stored, and the CPU 10 performs multitask processing.

Further, the RAM 13 includes at least the areas of the order data file 13a, the settlement data file 13b, and the master file 13c. The order data is written in the order file 13a when the order contents are input to the order terminal device 9, and the order data is cleared when the settlement is performed. The adjustment data is written in the adjustment data file 13b when the adjustment is performed. The master file 13c stores PLU (Price Look Up) data representing various menu names and prices thereof that are input in advance.

The operation of the system controller 1 having the above configuration will be described.

The flowcharts of FIGS. 3, 4, 5, and 6 are the respective processes of the system controller 1 in the order reception work, cooking instruction work, order statement issuance work, and cash register work tasks. Is shown.

The order reception work starts by inputting the order contents such as the table number, the number of customers, the order menu number (PLU number), and the quantity into the order terminal 9, but the system controller 1 receives the order data at step 10. It is determined whether or not it has been transmitted to the optical communication control unit 16, and if it has been transmitted, order data is created in the next step 11, and this is written in the order data file 13a.

This order data stored in the order data file 13a is the check-in time input to the order terminal 9
It consists of table number, number of customers, customer class, PLU number and various data representing the quantity, and slip number data given in order of date and order.

In step 12, the storage destination information (mail) of the order data in the order data file 13a is delivered to the task of the cooking instruction work. In the next step 13, a similar mail is delivered to the task of the order statement issuing business.

On the other hand, in the task of the cooking instruction work, the system controller 1 determines in step 20 whether the mail has been delivered, and if the mail exists, in the next step 21 the order data file 13a based on this mail.
Read the relevant order data from. In the next step 22, the master file 13c is searched for the menu name corresponding to the PLU number included in the order data. Then, in the next step 23, print data necessary for printing out the order menu name, its quantity, and the slip number at that time are created. Then, in step 24, this print data is output to the chit printer 3. The order menu name and slip number printed out by the chit printer 3 serve as cooking instructions.

Moreover, the task of the order statement issuance work is similar to the task of the cooking instruction work, and the system controller 1
Determines in step 30 whether the mail has been delivered. If there is a mail, the corresponding order data is read from the order data file 13a based on this mail in the next step 31. In the next step 32, the order menu name and its unit price are retrieved from the PLU number of the order data. Then, in the next step 33, the total amount is calculated using both the quantity data of the order menu and the retrieved unit price data included in the order file data. Then, in step 34, print data necessary to print out the order menu name, its unit price and quantity, and the slip number at that time are created,
Further, in the next step 35, this print data is output to the chit printer 4, and the chit printer 4 outputs the order menu name, its unit price, quantity and total amount. At this time, the content printed out by the chit printer 4 becomes an order statement to be given to the customer.

Then, the settlement operation starts when the accountant inputs the slip number with the keyboard 8. In the cash register task, when a key input is made in step 40, it is determined in the next step 41 whether or not the slip number is input. If the slip number is input, the process proceeds to step 42.

In this step 42, the order data corresponding to the entered slip number is read from the order data file 13a. In the next step 42, the unit price data of the order menu is searched from the master file 13c with the PLU number included in the order data. In the next step 44, the total amount of money is calculated based on the unit price data and the quantity data of the order menu included in the order data, and the total amount of money is discounted or discounted if necessary, and is further multiplied by the tax rate. Calculate the settlement amount. Then, in step 45, the drawer 8 is controlled to perform the accounting process based on the settlement amount, and in the next step 46, the receipt journal printer 5 is driven. As a result, a receipt is issued to the customer.

At the next step 47, this order data is cleared from the order data stored in the order data file 13a. Then, in step 48, settlement data is created from this order data and stored in the settlement file data 13b. The settlement data is the contents of the order data with the menu name, checkout time, and settlement amount added.

In this way, the settlement operation for one slip is completed, but if there is an input error in the slip number, the cancel key of the keyboard 8 is operated. Then, in step 50, step
If it is determined that the key input at 40 is the operation of the cancel key, the process proceeds to step 51. When the slip number to be canceled is input from the keyboard 8 in this step 51,
In the next step 52, the settlement data corresponding to this slip number is retrieved from the settlement data file 13b. Then, in the next step 53, the settlement data file
Cancel this settlement data from 13b. To clear the adjustment data, clear the adjustment data memory itself from the adjustment data file 13b, and leave the adjustment data memory to be canceled as it is while canceling the adjustment data. File 13
There is a method to invalidate the settlement data by storing it in b. In the latter method, the negative adjustment data is the content of the adjustment data to be canceled with a sign indicating invalidity of the data. Therefore, the stored adjustment data is canceled out, and this adjustment data is substantially equivalent to being cleared from the adjustment data file 13b.

In the next step 54, the receipt journal printer 5 is driven to print out the receipt and the journal based on the adjustment data read for cancellation.
Therefore, the fact that the settlement data has been canceled will be recorded as a journal. In the next step 55, the read settlement data is returned to the order data and stored again in the order data file 13a. At this time,
Recovery to order data is performed by deleting the menu name, checkout time, and settlement amount from the settlement data. Then, when it is stored again in the order data file 13a, step 4
Although the process returns to 0, re-payment can be performed by entering the correct slip number here.

In the system controller 1 (sales registration device) of the above restaurant POS system, when the cancel key is operated after the settlement, the CPU 11 reads out the settlement data to be canceled from the settlement data file and returns the settlement data to the order data. It re-stores in the order data file and clears or invalidates the storage of this checkout data from the checkout data file. Therefore, CPU1
1 is the settlement data file 13b in response to the operation of the cancel key
Read-out means for reading out the adjustment data to be canceled from, the order data recovery means for returning the read-out adjustment data to the order data and re-storing it in the order data file 13a, and clearing the memory of the adjustment data to be canceled from the adjustment data file 13b. It has a function of a settlement data canceling means for performing or invalidating.

(G) Effect of the Invention According to the present invention, since the order data once deleted from the order data file can be restored again by operating the cancel key, a sales registration device with high operability can be provided.
