Further, the current SP value is added to the special service point P2 of the point work table 14d, and this key processing ends. (Point Storage Means) The CPU 11 is program-controlled to execute the key processing shown in FIG. 9 when the deposit / current total key 4d is pressed while the "registration" mode is selected by the mode switch 5. ing.

That is, the CPU 11 sets the deposit / current total key 4
First, the flag table 14c
It is determined whether the registration flag RF is set to “1”. If it is confirmed that the key is reset to "0", the key input of the deposit / current total key 4d is regarded as an error, and this key processing is terminated.

When it is confirmed that the registration flag RF is set to "1", the CPU 11 executes a closing process. That is, the numerical data set by the number key 4a immediately before the key input of the deposit / current total key 4d is used as the deposit amount, and the total amount AT stored in the amount totalizer 14b is reduced from the deposit amount to change the change. calculate. The change amount is displayed on each of the displays 6 and 7, and the printer 8 prints out the deposit amount and the change amount on a receipt and a journal.

Next, the CPU 11 calculates the privilege points for the total amount AT by the following equation. Here, it is assumed that the point reference amount and the point magnification are set in the ROM 13 in advance.

Bonus point = (total amount / point reference amount) × point magnification Next, the CPU 11 stores the calculated privilege point as the current transaction point P0 in the point work table 14d. In addition, the previous total point P0, the current transaction point P1, and the special service point P2 in the point work table 14d are all added, and the total is stored as the total point P in the point work table 14d. (Point Total Means) Next, the CPU 11 sends control data to the card reader / writer 2 via the interface 19 to record the total points P on the customer card 10 inserted in the card reader / writer 2.

The CPU 11 controls the driving of the printer 8, and prints out predetermined point information on a receipt and a journal based on the contents of the point work table 14d and the SP print buffer 14e.

Thereafter, the CPU 11 issues a receipt from the receipt issuing port 8 and opens the drawer 9. Also, the card flag C of the flag table 14c
F and the registration flag RF are reset to "0", respectively, and this key processing ends.

In a store using the apparatus of this embodiment having such a configuration, the SP setting table 14
f, an SP value “10” corresponding to the SP number “1” and a service name “small foam tray” are set, and an SP value “20” corresponding to the SP number “2” and a service name “milk pack” are set. (Small) ”and set S in response to SP number“ 3 ”.
A P value “30”, a service name “foam tray (large)” are set, and an SP value “40” and a service name “milk pack (large)” are set corresponding to the SP number “4”, and the SP number “5”. , An SP value “50” and a service name “special service point” are set.

That is, in this shop, customers who bring trays made of foam material are given 10 or 30 points as special service points in addition to privilege points for the purchase price, and customers who bring milk paper packs In the same way, 20 or 40 points are awarded as special service points. In addition, a customer who has brought a direct mail or the like distributed to a specific customer in advance is given 50 points as a special service point.

Assuming that the customer comes to pay for the purchased merchandise, the cashier first receives the customer card 10 from the customer. Then, the customer card 10 is transferred to the card reader / writer 2
The card key 4f is operated after the card is inserted into the card slot 2a.

Then, the total points (3250 points in this example) recorded on the customer card 10 are read and stored as the previous total points P0 in the point work table 14d.

Next, the cashier operates the numeric key 4a and the department key 4b to perform department registration of the purchased product.
When the customer has brought a predetermined direct mail and two milk paper packs (large), the user first operates the SP key 4g-5 corresponding to the direct mail. Subsequently, the key "4" and the multiplication key 4e are operated to input a multiplier "2", and then the S corresponding to the milk paper pack (large) is input.
Operate the P key 4g-4 by key operation.

Then, the total amount of the purchased merchandise (2600 yen in this example) is stored in the amount totalizer 14b.
The service point table 14d stores the sum of SP values called from the SP setting table 14f as special service points (130 points in this example = 50 + 2 × 40).

Next, the cashier receives the payment for the customer and operates the deposit / current total key 4d. Then, privilege points (260 points in this example) are calculated based on the total amount in the amount totalizer 14d, and stored as the current transaction point P1 in the service point table 14d.

The service point table 14
The total point P is obtained by adding the previous cumulative point P0, the current transaction point P2, and the special service point P3 in d.
(3640 points in this example) is obtained.

The receipt issuing port 8 of the printer 8
a, a receipt R as shown in FIG. 3 is printed and issued,
In addition, the customer card 10 in which the total points P are recorded as the total points up to the current transaction is discharged from the card slot 2a of the card reader / writer 2, and the cashier hands the customer to the customer.

As described above, according to the present embodiment, the privilege points are calculated for each transaction from the total amount of the transaction and before the registration closing of one transaction is declared by the deposit / current key 4d. When the SP keys 4g-1 to 4g-5 are input by a key, an SP number preset to the input key is obtained as a special service point by a positive multiple of an SP value. The points are added to the privilege points calculated after the closing operation.

Therefore, in a store where privilege points are given according to the total amount of one transaction, in a case where a customer who brought in a collection product such as a milk paper pack or a foam tray is further given predetermined privilege points, The apparatus of this embodiment is very effective because it can be handled by simple key operations.

In the apparatus of this embodiment, service name information is set for various special service points in the SP setting table 14f, and a special service point and a name can be printed on a receipt by type. Another advantage is that the breakdown of the special service points can be easily confirmed from the receipt.

In the above-described embodiment, the case where the special service point is input with the one-touch key has been described. However, a free value is input as the special service point by inputting a combination of the numeric key and the specific key. Is also good. Also, instead of directly inputting the special service point by key, inputting the data indicating the special service point, storing the data, obtaining the special service pointer based on the stored data according to the closing operation, and adding it to the privilege point. You may make it.

In the above embodiment, the customer's total points are managed using the customer card 10, but a customer management file may be created on a hard disk provided in the apparatus to manage the total points of each customer. Good. Needless to say, the handling of the privilege points is not limited to the above-described embodiment, for example, the privilege points are not accumulated but used for the discount at the next shopping.

In addition, it goes without saying that various modifications can be made without departing from the spirit of the present invention.

[0059]

As described in detail above, according to the present invention, another privilege point can be added to the privilege point calculated from the total amount of one transaction by a simple operation, and the practicality can be improved. Product sales data processing apparatus can be provided.
