Description

Description: TECHNICAL FIELD The present invention relates to a passbook identification method for identifying and specifying a passbook type of a passbook to be used for a transaction from a plurality of passbook types.

(Prior Art) In financial institutions, there are various kinds of transactions using passbooks.
For example, when performing bookkeeping, information in a magnetic stripe attached to the passbook is used. The magnetic stripe records information such as a subject for specifying a transaction that the passbook can correspond to and an account number. For this reason, by reading the contents of the magnetic stripe, it is possible to specify the passbook type of the passbook (what kind of transaction corresponds to the passbook).

In recent years, in order to automate the recording of a large number of passbooks, there are cases where the passbooks are stored in predetermined boxes without opening pages, and bookkeeping is performed while sequentially opening pages to be printed.

Further, a multi-passbook that can handle a plurality of transactions with one book is used.

For example, when dealing with time deposits and ordinary deposits with a single passbook, the magnetic stripe includes an item code (determined by a financial institution system) that codes two types of transaction items, time deposits and ordinary deposits. Is recorded). In this case, the number of subjects is 2, and the types of transactions (subjects) are time deposits and ordinary deposits. When using the multi-subject passbook, comparing the processing content selected by the attendant with the information of the subject code read from the magnetic stripe, that is, a plurality of subject data, to identify whether or not the passbook is a transaction target. become.

Even if the number and type of courses that can be handled are the same, the arrangement of pages in the passbook, for example, a passbook in which the first half has pages related to time deposit transactions and the second half has pages related to ordinary deposits, Conversely, various types of multi-subject passbooks have begun to be used, such as a passbook in which pages relating to ordinary deposit transactions are arranged in the first half and pages relating to time deposits are arranged in the second half.

When storing such a passbook that can handle multiple subjects in a box as described above,
Simply reading the subject code recorded on the magnetic stripe may correspond to a plurality of passbooks. In this case, in order to finally specify the passbook (passbook type), the page mark added to each page of the passbook and the printing state of each page, that is, the number of lines printed or not, are sequentially read. It is determined whether or not the contents of the print instruction of the apparatus, for example, the item indicating the transaction contents, the page and the line to be printed are the same. The page mark usually indicates the type of transaction (subject)
And the position (page) on the passbook, and is specifically displayed by the number of the subject code and the number of the page. The page mark and the printed line (printing start line) are sequentially read one page at a time and compared with the instruction contents of the host device. If all the contents match, the page to be printed, in other words, the specification of the passbook is completed. Will do.

(Problems to be Solved by the Invention) By the way, conventionally, when grasping the pages to be printed corresponding to a multi-subject passbook, the page mark and the printed line are read one by one, and the print instruction of the higher-level device is issued. It was necessary to determine whether or not the content matched. For this reason, as the target page is positioned on the second half side of the page turning target, the time spent for the determination becomes longer, which hinders the execution of the quick printing process.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The present invention has been made in view of the above points, and an object of the present invention is to provide a passbook breaking method capable of specifying a passbook and quickly grasping a page to be printed.

(Means for Solving the Problems) According to the passbook breaking method of the present invention, the types and numbers of subjects that can be handled for each passbook type are different from the number of pages of each subject, and represent the types of subjects that can be handled. In a passbook breaking method, a passbook having a magnetic stripe on which a subject code is recorded and a subject code on each page and a page mark indicating a page for each subject is turned to a target page. A page mark having an arbitrary subject code among the subject codes of the stripe information is extracted from the passbook page data including the page mark list of all the passbooks handled, and the passbook type corresponding to the extracted page mark is specified as a comparison target. Then, a page mark list showing an array of page marks for each specified passbook type is created and stored in the passbook type table, and a page mark read from the passbook in a predetermined order set in advance, and a passbook type The page mark list stored in the table is compared and compared, and if the result of the comparison is a match, the page mark list used for the comparison and its passbook type are left for comparison, and if the result of the comparison is inconsistent, The page mark list used for the comparison and its passbook type are deleted from the passbook type table, the comparison is repeated, the passbook type of the passbook is specified from the last remaining passbook type as a result of repeating the comparison, and the transaction contents to be printed Is read from the last remaining page mark list and the page is changed to the target page to be printed.

(Operation) In this method, when the passbook type of the passbook with the page mark is identified and specified, a page showing the arrangement of the page marks for each passbook including the code of the item recorded in the passbook is provided. Prepare a mark list. Then, the page marks attached to the passbook are read in a predetermined order, and are sequentially compared with the page mark list. If the results of the comparison match,
That is, while it is determined that the arrangement of the page marks on the page mark list is the same as the order of the page marks read from the passbook, this page mark list is left as a comparison target. On the other hand, if the comparison result does not match, that is, if the arrangement of the page marks on the page mark list is different from the order of the page marks read from the passbook, this page mark list is excluded from the comparison. This comparison is continued, and it is assumed that the passbook type corresponding to the last remaining page mark list is the passbook type of this passbook. The page corresponding to the transaction content to be printed is read from the last remaining page mark list, and the page is changed to the page to be printed.

(Embodiment) FIG. 1 is a block diagram of a bookkeeping apparatus according to the present invention.

In the bookkeeping apparatus 1 shown in FIG.
Is composed of a RAM or the like for storing the subject and the line in the contents of the print instruction from the upper device (not shown). The page reader 3 is composed of an optical sensor or the like that reads a page mark 51 formed of a bar code or the like provided on each page of the passbook 50 and a printed line. The page mark read data storage section 4 is composed of a RAM or the like that stores the read result of the page reader 3. The designated mark determination unit 5 stores the output (information indicating the subject and the line) of the page reader 3 in the designated subject line storage unit 2.
It is determined whether or not the output signal matches the contents. If the values match, the output signal is enabled, and if the values do not match, the output signal is disabled.

This determination result is used, for example, when a new or updated passbook 50 is issued. That is, at the time of these issuances, since the passbook type has already been determined to be a predetermined one, it is only necessary to grasp that the page is correctly opened.

The passbook page data registration means 6 controls registration of passbook page data to a passbook page data registration unit 7 described later. The passbook page data registration unit 7 includes a page mark list of all passbooks that can be handled by the bookkeeping apparatus 1, that is, a RAM for storing the passbook page data 20 and the like.

The magnetic stripe reader / writer 8 reads and writes a magnetic stripe (not shown) provided on the passbook 50. The passbook recognition unit 9 extracts a page mark list on the passbook page data registration unit 7 corresponding to the reading result of the magnetic stripe reader / writer 8 and recognizes a passbook type corresponding to the page mark list. The passbook type table 10 includes a RAM for storing a page mark list extracted by the passbook recognition unit 9 and a list of recognized passbook types.

The comparison determination unit 11 compares the page mark list stored in the passbook type table 10 with the contents of the page mark read data storage unit 4 for each passbook type. Note that the comparison determination unit
Reference numeral 11 deletes from the passbook type table 10 the page mark list that did not match as a result of the comparison and the passbook type corresponding to this page mark list.

The passbook identification code storage unit 12 includes a register or the like that stores a passbook identification code that specifies the passbook type determined by the comparison determination unit 11. The judgment page storage unit 13 includes a comparison judgment unit
Reference numeral 11 denotes a register for storing a page code for specifying a page read by the page reader 3 when the passbook type is determined.

The page break mechanism unit 14 controls the page break of the passbook 50 based on the determination result of the comparison determination unit 11.

Here, the configuration of the passbook page data registration unit 7 will be described with reference to FIG.

FIG. 2 is a configuration diagram of the passbook page data registration unit 7 according to the present invention.

Here, it is assumed that the bookkeeping apparatus 1 can handle the printing of eight types of passbooks, that is, the passbooks A to H, and further handles a passbook with a maximum of 10 printable pages.

As shown in FIG, passbook page data 20 includes an item 21a~21h showing a passbook type of passbook A to H, the page mark list associated with the page entry P ₁ to P ₁₀ indicating the absolute page of each item It is configured. Here, the absolute page is, for example, one page, two pages, three pages,... Set from the display side of the passbook irrespective of the content of the page mark.

The page mark has a content indicating a 4-digit hexadecimal number, with the upper two digits indicating the subject and the lower two digits indicating the page for each subject.

Here, the upper two digits are set from “01” to “05”. For this reason, the bookkeeping apparatus 1 can execute processing for five subjects. The page in each subject is set by the lower two digits.

For example, in the case of passbook A, eight printed pages are prepared, the first three pages are subject "05", the next four pages are subject "03", and the last one is a page related to subject "02". Indicates that

Here, the operation of the passbook identification method of the present invention will be described with reference to FIG.

 FIG. 3 is a flowchart according to the present invention.

Here, the print instruction has already been received from the host
It is assumed that the designated subject line storage unit 2 stores contents for designating a subject and a line.

First, the magnetic stripe reader / writer 8
Reading of 50 magnetic stripes is performed (step S1).
The passbook recognition unit 9 recognizes a subject code indicating a subject from the read result of the magnetic stripe reader / writer 8, pays attention to any subject code among the recognized subject codes, and stores the passbook stored in the passbook page data registration unit 7. Extract all the page mark lists including the subject code from the page data 20,
Furthermore, specify the passbook type corresponding to this page mark list,
A passbook type table 10 is created (step S2). Thereafter, the page reader 3 reads the page mark and the printed line assigned to the page of the passbook 50 opened by the page break mechanism 14 (step S3). The result of the reading is determined by the designated mark determination unit 5 as to whether or not it matches the contents of the specified subject line storage unit 2 (step S4). If the result is NO, the comparison determination unit 11 determines whether the contents of the passbook identification code storage unit 12 are determined (step S5). This determination is YES when the value of the counter n provided in the comparison determination unit 11 is “1” and the list of the passbook types in the passbook type table 10 is one type of passbook type. If the answer is YES in step S4, the contents instructed to print are recorded and the processing is terminated. If the result of step S5 is NO, the read result of the page reader 3 is stored in the page mark read data storage section 4 (step S5).
6), the counter n of the comparison / determination unit 11 is reset (content "0") (step S7). The counter n indicates the number of matching passbook types.

Thereafter, the page mark stored in the page mark read data storage unit 4 is compared with the contents of the first page (absolute page) of any type of page mark list stored in the passbook type table 10 (step S8). . As a result, when they match, the content of the counter n is incremented (step S9), and it is further determined whether or not the item of the passbook type to be determined is set in the passbook type table 10 (step S10). If the result is YES, step S8 is executed again. As a result of step S8, if it is determined that there is no match, the page mark list and passbook type used for this comparison are deleted from the passbook type table 10 (step S16), and the process proceeds to step S10. If the result of step S10 is NO, the comparison determination unit 11
It is determined whether or not the content of the counter n is "1" (step S11). If the result is NO, the comparison / determination unit 11 causes the page reader 3 to read a new page mark,
14 to drive one page of passbook 50 (step S1
2) Return to step S3.

If YES is determined in step S11, only one remaining passbook type (passbook identification code) set on the passbook type table 10 is stored in the passbook identification code storage unit 12 (step S13), and the page mark is read. Data storage unit 4
Is stored in the determination page storage unit 13 (step S14). Then, the comparison determination unit 11 grasps the page corresponding to the content of the designated subject line storage unit 2 from the page mark list stored in the passbook type table 10 and determines the required number of sheets (one sheet or one) up to the target page to be printed. (Several sheets) page break instruction (step S15), and step S
Move to 3.

The operation described above will be described in detail with reference to FIG.

 FIG. 4 is an explanatory diagram of a process according to the present invention.

First, assuming passbook type B as passbook 50, passbook B
The upper two digits of the subject code "05", "01", "02" from the example of FIG. 2 are read by the magnetic stripe reader / writer 8 from the example of FIG. For example, if it is determined that processing is to be performed in the order of the subject codes “02”, “05”, and “01”, the processing is performed by focusing on the subject code “02”.

When the passbook recognizing unit 9 recognizes the subject code "02", the page including the subject code "02" in the upper two digits of the page mark representing the subject is obtained from the passbook page data 20 (FIG. 2) of the passbook page data registration unit 7. Marks are extracted, passbook types A, B, D, and F corresponding to the extracted page marks are specified, and all page mark lists ()
Then, a list () of the passbook type codes is set in the passbook type table 10.

The page mark 51 of the passbook 50 is read by the page reader 3, but since the passbook 50 is of the passbook type B, first, the page mark read from the first page is "0501" ().

Now, after steps S4 to S6 in FIG. 3, the counter n is set to 0 in step S7, and the page mark "0501" read thereafter is compared with the all page mark list () in the passbook type table 10.

First, it is compared with the passbook type A, and since it matches, the comparison determination unit
The 11 counters n are updated to 0 + 1 = 1 and compared with the next passbook type B. Since the passbook type B also matches, the counter n is further updated to 1 + 1 = 2 and compared with the passbook type D. Since the page mark "0501" does not exist in the passbook type D, the passbook type D does not match, and the passbook type D is deleted from the page mark list and the list of passbook type codes related to the passbook type D to be compared from the passbook type table 10.

It is also compared with the passbook type F, but because it matches, the counter n
Is updated to 2 + 1 = 3, but there is no next judgment passbook type, and since counter n = 3, the page feed mechanism unit 14 is driven to change the passbook 50 by one sheet.

A page mark "0502" is read from the second page by the page reader 3 (), the counter n is set to 0 again in step S7, and the passbook types A, B, and F are sequentially compared. In S11, the counter n = 3, and the bankbook 5
0 is changed one page.

Next, the page mark “0503” is read from the third page (),
The passbook types A, B, and F are compared in order, and the passbook types A and B match, but the passbook type F does not match. Therefore, the passbook type F is deleted from the page mark list and the list of passbook type codes.

Further, when the page mark “0103” is read from the fourth page after one page break (), since the passbook type A does not match, the passbook type A is deleted from the page mark list and the list of passbook type codes, and the next passbook is deleted. It is compared with the type B. Since the passbook type B matches, the counter n is updated to 0 + 1 = 1, and there is no next determination passbook type, and since the counter n = 1, the passbook type B that matches and finally remains in the list of passbook type codes is The passbook 50 can be specified as the passbook type B.

Next, the passbook identification code B indicating the passbook type is stored, the page mark of the currently opened page is stored, and several pages are collectively changed to the target page to be printed.

As described above, according to the present invention, the passbook can be specified based on the page mark 51 given to the page of the passbook 50, and thereafter, the page to be printed can be quickly opened.

(Effect of the Invention) As described above, according to the present invention, a corresponding passbook is specified by a page mark attached to the passbook from among various kinds of multi-subject passbooks, and a page to be printed is specified as in the conventional case. Since the passbook specification is completed and the necessary pages are changed at once upon completion of the passbook without page breaks one by one as much as possible, the processing time required for one passbook can be reduced, and the processing capacity can be improved.
