A receipt memory 22 for storing the amount of the receipt, and a registering flag R that is set to “0” when the merchandise of one transaction is not being registered and “1” when the merchandise is being registered.
A flag memory 23 of a GF and a flag memory 24 of a receipt control flag GPF which is "0" when the transaction for which the receipt is to be issued is not being processed, "1" when the transaction is being processed, and "2" when the transaction is suspended. Is formed. Here, the flag memory 24 of the receipt control flag GPF constitutes an information storage means.

When the commodity key 2a1 on the matrix keyboard 2a is operated and input in the state where the "registration" mode is selected by the mode switch 8, the electronic cash register according to the present embodiment operates as described above.
The program in the ROM 12 is constructed so that the PU 11 executes the product key processing shown in the flowchart of FIG.

That is, when starting the commodity key processing, the CPU 11 first checks the flag memory of the registering flag RGF as ST (step) 1. If the registering flag RGF is "0", it is the first product registration in one transaction, so the registering flag RGF is updated to "1" in ST2 and the total amount memory 21 is cleared in ST3. If the registering flag RGF is "1", the second and subsequent products in the first transaction are registered, so that the processes in ST2 and ST3 are not performed.

Next, the CPU 11 executes a commodity sales registration process as ST4. That is, a product code preset in the product key 2a1 input by the operation is recognized, and a product data file is searched with this product code to obtain product data such as a product name and a unit price of a registered product. And
The unit price in this product data is sold by multiplying the unit price by the number of sales (if the multiplier was entered by the numeric key 2b1 and the multiplication key 2b3 immediately before the entry of the product key, the multiplier is entered; otherwise, "1"). The price is calculated, and the merchandise sales data of the sales amount and the sales points are registered in the cumulative sales file.

Next, the CPU 11 edits detailed data such as the product name, unit price, number of sales, and sales price of the registered product in ST5, and displays the product detailed data on each of the displays 3 and 4, and the printer 5 To print on receipt paper and journal paper. Thereafter, when the sales amount of the registered product is added to the total price memory 21 in ST6, the product key process is terminated.

The electronic cash register according to the present embodiment operates with the function keyboard 2 while the “registration” mode is selected by the mode switch 8.
When the tightening key 2b5 on b is operated and input, the CPU
11 constructs a program in the ROM 12 so as to execute the closing key process shown in the flowchart of FIG.

That is, when starting the closing key processing, the CPU 11 first registers the registering flag RGF as ST11.
Examine the flag memory. And the registering flag RGF
Is "0", it is an erroneous operation declaring the registration end even though the merchandise sales registration of one transaction has not been performed, so the key input is regarded as an error.

On the other hand, the registering flag RGF is "1".
In the case of, since the end of the merchandise sales registration for one transaction has been declared, the registration closing process is executed as ST12. That is, the deposit amount (the numeric key 2 just before the input of the closing key 2b5)
A change operation is performed to subtract the total amount in the total amount memory 21 from the numerical value data if the numerical value is set by b1, and the total amount, the deposit amount and Display the change amount on each display 3, 4
To be displayed.

Next, in ST13, the closing print data including the total amount, the deposit amount, and the change amount is sent to the printer 5 to be printed on receipt paper and journal paper, and the customer purchase receipt is discharged from the receipt issuing port 6. . Also, a drive signal is sent to the drawer opening device 7a,
Open the drawer 7.

Thereafter, as ST14, the flag memory 24 of the receipt control flag GPF is checked. Here, if the receipt control flag GPF is “1”, it means that the transaction for the receipt issuance is in progress, so the receipt memory 22 is set as ST15.
Is added to the total amount data in the total amount memory 21. Then, as ST16, the money amount data in the receipt memory 22 displayed on the display unit 3 for the operator is updated to the money amount data after the addition processing. Receipt control flag GP
If F is not "1", it means that the transaction for receipt issuance is not being processed or the transaction is being interrupted, so that the processes in ST15 and ST16 are not performed. Thereafter, the flag memory 2 is set as ST17.
When the registering flag RGF of No. 3 is updated to “0”, the closing key processing is terminated.

The closing key process executed by the CPU 11 in step ST15 is performed by the information storage means (flag of the receipt control flag GPF each time the end of the merchandise sales registration of one transaction is declared by the operation input of the closing key 2b5). The storage contents of the memory 24) are checked, and when the information (receipt control flag GPF = 1) indicating that the receipt is being processed is stored, the total amount data in the total amount memory 21 is stored in the receipt memory 22. A means for updating the receipt amount to be added is configured.

The electronic cash register according to the present embodiment operates with the function keyboard 2 while the “registration” mode is selected by the mode switch 8.
When the receipt key 2b6 on operation b is operated and input, the CP
The program in the ROM 12 is constructed so that U11 executes the receipt key processing shown in the flowchart of FIG.

That is, when starting the receipt key processing, the CPU 11 first checks the flag memory 24 of the receipt control flag GPF in ST21. Here, if the receipt control flag GPF is “0”, since the start of the transaction for the receipt is instructed when the transaction for the receipt is not being processed, the amount of money in the receipt memory 22 is determined as ST22. The data is displayed as a receipt amount in a predetermined area of the operator display 3. If the receipt control flag GPF is updated to "1" in ST23, the receipt key processing ends.

Here, the processing of ST22 of the receipt key processing and the processing of ST16 of the closing key processing, which are executed by the CPU 11, are executed by the information storage means (flag memory 24 of the receipt control flag GPF) in the transaction processing for the receipt issuance target. A receipt for displaying the amount data in the receipt memory 22 as a group receipt amount on the display unit (the display unit 3 for the operator) during the period in which the information indicating the inside (receipt control flag GPF = 1) is stored. The amount display control means is constituted.

On the other hand, when the receipt control flag GPF is "2", the command to cancel the transaction for which the receipt is to be issued is issued during the suspension of the transaction for which the receipt is to be issued.
The information indicating that the transaction is interrupted, which is displayed in a predetermined area of the operator display 3, is deleted. After a while, ST2
If the receipt control flag GPF is returned to "1" as "5", the receipt key processing is terminated.

In ST21, the receipt control flag GP
If F is " 1 ", the key input is regarded as an error because it is an erroneous operation instructing the start of the transaction for receipt issuance during the transaction for receipt issuance.

The electronic cash register according to the present embodiment operates with the function keyboard 2 while the “registration” mode is selected by the mode switch 8.
When the suspend key 2b8 on the “b” is operated and input, the CPU
11 constructs a program in the ROM 12 so as to execute the interruption key processing shown in the flowchart of FIG.

That is, when starting the interrupt key processing, the CPU 11 firstly performs a receipt control flag G as ST31.
Check the flag memory 24 of the PF. Here, if the receipt control flag GPF is "1", it is instructed to interrupt the transaction for the receipt issuance during the transaction for the receipt issuance. Display information indicating that the transaction is suspended. Thereafter, if the receipt control flag GPF is updated to "2", the interrupt key processing is terminated. If the receipt control flag GPF is "0" or "2" in ST31, it is an erroneous operation that instructs the suspension of the transaction for receipt issuance during the non-processing or suspension of the transaction for receipt issuance. Make the input an error.

Here, the processing of ST33 of the interruption key processing and the processing of ST25 of the receipt key processing executed by the CPU 11 are performed by the information storage means (flag memory 24 of the receipt control flag GPF) in the transaction processing for the receipt issuance target. When the suspend key 2b8 is input in a state in which the information indicating that the transaction is in progress (the receipt control flag GPF = 1) is stored, the stored information is changed to the information indicating that the transaction is suspended (the receipt control flag GPF = 2), and thereafter, When a release key (receipt key 2b6) is input, a stored information changing unit is configured to return the stored information to information indicating that a transaction is being processed (receipt control flag GPF = 1).

The interruption key process executed by the CPU 11 in step ST32 is performed by the information storage means (flag memory 24 of the receipt control flag GPF) indicating that the transaction for which the receipt is to be issued is suspended (the receipt control flag GPF). = 2), the suspended display control means for displaying the amount data in the receipt memory 22 together with the data indicating the suspended state on the display unit (display 3 for the operator) as the group receipt amount. Constitute.

The electronic cash register according to the present embodiment operates with the function keyboard 2 while the “registration” mode is selected by the mode switch 8.
When the issuance key 2b8 on b is operated and input, the CPU
11 constructs a program in the ROM 12 so as to execute the issuance key processing shown in the flowchart of FIG.

That is, when starting the issuance key processing, the CPU 11 first registers the registration flag RGF as ST41.
Examine the flag memory. And the registering flag RGF
Is "1", it is an erroneous operation instructing the issuance of a receipt during the registration of the sale of goods for one transaction, so the key input is regarded as an error.

At step ST41, the registering flag RGF is set to "0".
In step ST42, the flag memory 24 of the receipt control flag GPF is checked in step ST42. Then, the receipt control flag GP
If F is not "1", the key input is regarded as an error because it is an erroneous operation instructing the issuance of a receipt when the transaction for receipt is not being processed or the transaction is suspended.

When the receipt control flag GPF is "1" in ST42, the print data of the receipt using the amount data in the receipt memory 22 as the face value is edited in ST43 as follows. That is, the amount data in the receipt memory 22 is set in the denomination amount field of the fixed format data of the receipt set in advance in the ROM 12 or the RAM 13 by 90-degree left-rotated characters, and the date data read from the clock circuit 14 is similarly set in the date column. Is set with 90-degree rotated characters to edit the print data of the receipt. After the receipt print data is edited, the receipt print data is
