Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a product sales registration data processing device in which both a cashier and a customer can read and input a product code.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, as a self-scanning product sales registration data processing device in which a customer himself reads and inputs a product code of a purchased product, as shown in FIG. 7, a scanner 1 and a weighing device 2M are included. A two-lane type in which a checkout lane 5 in which a carry-in conveyor 2, a carry-out conveyor 3 and a bag filling table 4 are arranged in the product flow direction is arranged on both sides of an electronic cash register (hereinafter referred to as ECR) 6 Things are known.

In such a device, the customer CST1 (CST2)
When the scanner uses the scanner 1 to read and enter the product code attached to his / her purchased product, the product code is EC
It is transmitted to R6. Further, when the customer CST1 (CST2) places the product for which the product code has been read and input on the carry-in conveyor 2, the actual weight data of the product weighed by the weighing machine 2M is transmitted to the ECR 6.

On the other hand, the ECR 6 is provided with a product file in which set weight data is preset together with the product name, unit price, etc. corresponding to the product code of each product. And EC
When the product code from the scanner 1 is taken in, the R6 retrieves the product file, reads the set weight data corresponding to the input product code, compares it with the actual weight data from the weighing machine 2M, and confirms the identity of both weight data. Only when it is determined that there is identity, the sales data of the corresponding product is acquired and the sales registration processing is performed in the storage unit. At this time, the products are transferred by the carry-in conveyor 2 and the carry-out conveyor 3 and stocked in the bagging unit 4.

In this way, when the customer CST1 (CST2) finishes reading and inputting the commodity codes of all the purchased commodities, the cashier CHR operates and inputs the closing key provided on the keyboard of the ECR6. Then, the ECR6 outputs the total of all purchased products and issues a receipt on which the data related to the transaction is printed. The cashier CHR exchanges the payment for the total amount with the customer CST1 (CST2). And the receipt may be delivered.

[0006]

However, in the above-mentioned conventional self-scanning product sales registration data processing device, the customer himself / herself reads and inputs the product codes of all the purchased products by using the scanner, so that the burden on the cashier is reduced. Although it is reduced, the burden on the customer increases. For this reason,
There is also a risk that the introduction of the self-scanning system will be unpopular with customers. In addition, it is conceivable that some customers will be unfamiliar with reading and inputting the product code, which may not always improve the efficiency of the accounting process.

Such a problem occurs because the customer has to read and input the product codes of all the purchased products. That is, if both the cashier and the customer share the product code reading and input of all purchased products, not only the burden on the cashier can be reduced, but also the accounting processing efficiency can be improved.

However, even in this case, the burden on the customer is still increasing, and it seems unlikely that the customer will actively read and input the product code unless there is a return for the burden.
It cannot be expected to reduce the burden on the cashier and improve the efficiency of accounting. In order to give a reward or the like to the customer's burden, it is necessary to clarify which of the purchased products the customer himself has registered.

Therefore, according to the present invention, both the cashier and the customer can share and input the product codes of all the products purchased by the customer, and it becomes clear which of the purchased products the customer himself has registered. An object of the present invention is to provide a product sales registration data processing device that can be distinguished.

[0010]

The invention according to claim 1 of the present application obtains merchandise sales data based on the merchandise code read by the code reading device, performs sales registration processing in the storage unit, and inputs the closing key operation. When the end of sales registration for all products purchased in one transaction is declared by, the product sales registration data processing device that issues a receipt printed with the data related to that one transaction has a code reading unit for a cashier and a code reading unit. A code reading unit for customers is provided so that the product code can be read and input by the cashier and the customer in cooperation with the customer, and the product code read by the code reading device is read by the code reading unit for cashier. Judged whether the code was read by the customer code reader or the code read by the customer code reader And is the detail information of products that sales registration processing based on the commodity code when printing on the receipt paper is obtained so as to print the customer registration mark.

With such a configuration, when the cashier and the customer share and read the merchandise codes of all the merchandise purchased in one transaction, the customer can read out and enter the detailed information of each merchandise printed on the receipt of the one transaction. Since the customer registration mark is printed on the detailed information of the read and input product, the product read and input by the cashier and the product read and input by the customer can be distinguished.

[0012]

The scanner circuits 25 and 26 and the display control circuits 28 and 29 may be provided in the ECR 10 and the interface 110 and the interface 27 may be excluded.

Now, the product sales registration data processing device is
In the RAM 18 in the ECR 10, as shown in FIG. 3, a product file 51, a member file 52, a cash total 53,
Various areas such as a discount summing device 54, a privilege type data memory 55, and a work memory 56 for one customer are formed.

In the product file 51, setting data such as the product name and unit price of the product are preset corresponding to the product codes attached to all the products sold in the store, and the sales of the number of sales and the sales amount are performed. This is an area for accumulating data for each product code.

The member file 52 is an area for accumulating service points given to each purchase for each customer code given to each customer who has become a member of the service point system.

The cash totaling device 53 is an area for totaling the purchase amounts of all the customers who have been settled by the ECR 10, and the discount amount totaling device 54 is the total amount of discounts generated for each of the customers who have been settled by the ECR 10. This is the area to be used.

The privilege type data memory 55 is data indicating the contents of the privilege when the customer himself / herself registers the customer-purchased product using the customer scanner 22, and is operated by a predetermined key operation of the keyboard 11 in the "setting" work. It can be changed.

In the first embodiment, the data showing the privilege of discounting according to the total score of all the products registered by the customer is set to "1", and the total amount of money of all the products registered by the customer itself. The data indicating the privilege of discounting according to the above is set to “2”, and the data indicating the privilege to be increased according to the total points of all the products registered by the customer itself is set to “3”. .

The work memory 56 for one customer is the EC
A product for which the code is read by the customer adder M1 and the first adder M1 that sums the amounts of the products for which the code is read by the cashier scanner 21 among the products purchased by one customer at R10 Second adder M2 for summing up the amount of money, a counter C for counting the number of items for which the code is read by the customer scanner 22, and a registration flag F set to "1" when the product is being registered. It is an area with and.

In the product sales registration data processing device according to the first embodiment, the code reading device 20 is operated while the "registration" job is selected by the job selection key.
When the commodity code (bar code) is read and input by, the CPU 16 is programmed to execute the scanner input processing shown in the flowchart of FIG.

That is, the CPU 16 first confirms in ST (step) 1 that the "registration" job is selected, and then in ST2 checks the registration flag F of the work memory 56 for one customer. When the registering flag F is reset to "0", the registering flag F is set to "1" and it is for one customer because it is the first sales registration of the product purchased by one customer. The first adder M1, the second adder M2 and the counter C of the work memory 56 are cleared. When the registration flag F is already set to "1", the above processing is not performed because it is the sales registration for the second and subsequent items of the one-customer-purchased product.

Next, at ST3, it is determined whether the product code is read and input by the cashier scanner 21 or the customer scanner 22. This determination can be made, for example, by adding the data indicating the transmission source to each of the product code transmission data read by the cashier scanner 21 and the product code transmission data read by the customer scanner 22.

Here, if the data of the commodity code read by the cashier scanner 21 is input, ST4 is entered.
A is searched for the product file 51. Then, the registered product data such as the product name and unit price corresponding to the input product code is read to acquire the product sales data and the sales registration processing is performed in the storage unit.
Specifically, the sales price of the registered product is set as the unit price, the sales score is set to "1", and the sales score and the sales price are added to the sales score area and the sales price area corresponding to the corresponding product code of the product file 51, respectively.

Next, in ST5A, the display data of the product name and the sales amount of the registered product are created. Then, this display data is transmitted from the interface 110 to the interface 27, and the item name and the sales price of the registered product are displayed on the upper stage of the cashier display 23 and the lower stage of the customer display 24, respectively.

Next, in ST6A, print data of the product name of the registered product, the number of sales, and the sales amount are created. Then, this print data is supplied to the printer control circuit 114 via the I / O port 116, and the printer 14 prints the product name, the number of sales, and the sales amount of the registered product on the receipt paper and the journal paper, respectively.

After that, if the sales amount of the registered product is added to the first adder M1 of the work memory 56 for one customer in ST7A, the current scanner input process is terminated. On the other hand, S
If the product code data read by the customer scanner 22 is input at T3, the product file 51 is input at ST4B.
To search. Then, similarly to the case of ST4A, the registered product data such as the product name and unit price corresponding to the input product code is read to acquire the product sales data and the sales registration processing is performed in the storage unit.

Next, in ST5B, display data of the product name and sales amount of the registered product is created. Then, this display data is transmitted from the interface 110 to the interface 27, and the product name and sales price of the registered product are displayed on the upper stage of the customer display 24 and the lower stage of the cashier display 23, respectively.

Next, in ST6B, print data of the product name, the number of sales, and the sales amount of the registered product are created. Then, this print data is supplied to the printer control circuit 114 via the I / O port 116, and the printer 14 prints the product name, the number of sales, and the sales amount of the registered product on the receipt paper and the journal paper, respectively. Further, the print data of the mark "*" indicating that the customer himself / herself has registered is also supplied to the printer control circuit 114 so that the printer 14 prints on the receipt paper and the journal paper.

Next, in ST7B, the work memory for one customer 56
The sales amount of the registered product is added to the second adder M2. Then, in ST8B, the contents of the privilege type data memory 55 are checked. If the privilege type data in the memory 55 is "1" or "3", the work memory 5 for one customer is used.
After incrementing the counter C of 6 by +1, the current scanner input processing is ended. If the privilege type data in the memory 55 is other than "1" or "3", the current scanner input process is terminated without incrementing the counter C.

The product sales registration data processing device is
With the "Register" job selected with the job selection key,
When the current key of the keyboard 11 is input, the CPU 1
6 is programmed to perform the running total key processing shown in the flow charts of FIGS.

That is, the CPU 16 first confirms in ST11 that the "registration" service is selected, and then the ST16
At 12, the registration flag F of the work memory 56 for one customer is checked. When the flag F during registration is reset to "0", it is a mistake that the current total key is operated without registering the customer purchase merchandise. .

When the registration flag F is set to "1" in ST12, the end of registration of the customer-purchased merchandise has been declared, so the contents of the privilege type data memory 55 are examined next. Here, if the privilege type data in the same memory 55 is other than "1", "2", and "3", the privilege for the customer's own registration is not set, and therefore, in ST13, the first adder M1 The contents and the contents of the second adder M2 are summed up to obtain the total transaction amount M, and this total transaction amount M is displayed on the display device 12 and printed by the printer 14 on receipt paper and journal paper. Further, the total transaction amount M is added to the cash totaling device 53.

Next, in ST14, the printer drive circuit 114
Send a receipt issue command to. It also sends a drawer opening command to the drawer opening device 115. As a result, a receipt is issued from the receipt issuing port 14a,
Since the drawer 13 is opened, thereafter, if the registering flag F of the one-customer work memory 56 is reset to "0", this processing ends.

On the other hand, when the privilege type data is "1", the discount is performed according to the total score of all the products registered by the customer himself / herself, so that the process specifically shown in FIG. 6 (a) is executed. .

That is, the total transaction amount M is calculated by adding the contents of the first adder M1 and the contents of the second adder M2.
Further, in ST15, the discount amount D proportional to the total points of all the products registered by the customer is calculated by the following equation (1).

D = C × d (1) In this formula (1), C is the count value of the counter C, and d is the discount amount (eg, 2 yen) per registered point.

Next, the total transaction amount M and the discount amount D are printed on the receipt paper and the journal paper by the printer 14.

Next, at ST16, the above-mentioned total transaction amount M
The total transaction amount is discounted by subtracting the discount amount D from the total transaction amount A, and the total transaction amount A after the discount is displayed on the display 12 as the price paid by the customer and printed on the receipt paper and the journal paper by the printer 14. .

Thereafter, the total transaction amount M before the discount is added to the cash total device 53, and the discount amount D is added to the discount amount total device 54.
If is added, the process proceeds to ST14. Then, if the receipt is issued, the drawer 13 is opened, and the in-registration flag F is reset to "0", this processing ends.

Further, when the privilege type data is "2", the discount is performed according to the total price of all the products registered by the customer himself, so that the process specifically shown in FIG. 6B is executed.

That is, the total transaction amount M is calculated by adding the contents of the first adder M1 and the contents of the second adder M2.
Further, in ST17, the discount amount D proportional to the total price of all the products registered by the customer is calculated by the following equation (2).

D = M2 × e / 100 (2) In this equation (2), M2 is the content of the second adder M2, and e is a preset discount rate (for example, 1
(%)).

Next, the total transaction amount M and the discount amount D are printed on the receipt paper and the journal paper by the printer 14.

Next, at ST18, the above-mentioned total transaction amount M
The total transaction amount is discounted by subtracting the discount amount D from the total transaction amount A, and the total transaction amount A after the discount is displayed on the display 12 as the price paid by the customer and printed on the receipt paper and the journal paper by the printer 14. .

Thereafter, the total transaction amount M before the discount is added to the cash total device 53, and the discount amount D is added to the discount amount total device 54.
If is added, the process proceeds to ST14. Then, if the receipt is issued, the drawer 13 is opened, and the in-registration flag F is reset to "0", this processing ends.

Further, when the privilege type data is "3", the service points corresponding to the total transaction amount are increased according to the total points of all the products registered by the customer himself.
The processing specifically shown in is executed.

That is, the contents of the first adder M1 and the contents of the second adder M2 are summed up to obtain the total transaction amount M.
Then, the total transaction amount M is displayed on the display device 12 as the price paid by the customer, and is printed on the receipt paper and the journal paper by the printer 14. Further, the total transaction amount M is added to the cash totaling device 53.

Next, it is determined whether the card reader 15 has read the valid record data (customer code) of the member card issued to the service point member. If it has not been read, it means that the registration of the customer who is a non-serving point member is completed, so that the process immediately proceeds to ST14.

On the other hand, when the valid record data of the membership card is read, the registration of the customer who is a serving point member is completed, and therefore the service point P is calculated by the following equation (3) in ST19.

P = n (M / 100 + C) (3) In this equation (3), M is the total transaction amount obtained by adding the contents of the first adder M1 and the contents of the second adder M2,
C is the count value of the counter C. In this embodiment, the total transaction amount M is n points per 100 yen, and when the customer himself / herself registers, n points per point are added.

Next, at ST20, if the member file 52 is searched and the service point P is added to the cumulative point area corresponding to the customer code in the member card data read by the card reader 15, the process proceeds to ST14. . Then, the receipt is issued and the drawer 1
If the register 3 is opened and the registering flag F is reset to "0", this process ends.

In the commodity sales registration data processing apparatus of the first embodiment configured as described above, the cashier uses the cashier scanner 21 and the customer uses the customer scanner 22 to mutually purchase the customer purchased goods. The product code (bar code) can be read and input. Moreover, for the customer who reads and inputs the product code, for example, a discount of 2 yen per point is given according to the total score of all the products registered by the customer, or the total of all the products registered by the customer himself. Benefits such as discounting 1% according to the amount of money or increasing service points according to the total transaction amount by n points per point according to the total points of all products registered by the customer themselves are given. It

Specifically, the privilege type data memory 5 is previously stored.
Set data “1” when discounting according to the total points of all the products registered by the customer, and data when discounting according to the total price of all the products registered by the customer. If "2" is set and the service points corresponding to the total transaction amount are increased according to the total points of all the products registered by the customer, the data "3" may be set.

For example, when the privilege type data "1" is set, when the cashier and the customer cooperate to read and input the product code of the customer-purchased product, and the customer reads and inputs the product code of 5 points, Discount d per point
If 2 is 2 yen, a discount of 10 yen (5 points × 2 yen) is made from the total price of all the purchased products of the customer, the so-called total transaction price, according to the equation (1).

Further, when the privilege type data “2” is set, the cashier and the customer cooperate to read and input the product code of the customer purchase product, and the customer inputs and reads the product code of the product for 500 yen. At that time, if the discount rate is 1%, a discount of 5 yen (500 × 1/100) is made from the total transaction amount of the customer according to the equation (2).

Further, when the privilege type data “3” is set, when the cashier and the customer cooperate to read and input the product code of the customer purchase product, and the customer inputs and reads the product code of 5 points. , N is 1, the service point P is calculated by adding 5 points to the service point corresponding to the total transaction amount of the customer by the formula (3), and is calculated in the accumulated point area corresponding to the customer code of the customer. Is added.

In this way, for a customer who has read and entered the product code of a customer-purchased product in cooperation with the cashier, the customer himself / herself is automatically determined according to the points and the amount of money of the product for which the product code has been read / input. Benefits such as discounts and increase in service points can be given. Therefore, the more the customer reads and inputs the code of the purchased product, the greater the privilege is given, so that the customer cooperates with the cashier to read and input the product code of the purchased product without feeling any burden. . As a result, the burden on the cashier is reduced and the accounting process is made more efficient.

In this case, when the customer prints the detailed information (the product name, the number of sales, the sales amount, etc.) of the product for which the product code is read and input using the customer scanner 22, on the receipt paper and the journal paper, At the same time, the customer registration mark "*" is also printed to distinguish it from the item information of the product registered by the cashier. Therefore, the product to which the customer registration mark "*" is added to the detailed information is a product registered by the customer himself / herself, and it is possible to make the customer strongly recognize that the privilege is given to the product registration.

In the first embodiment, three types of privilege methods are given to customers, and these can be arbitrarily selected by setting privilege type data. However, any one method is fixed. It may be a device provided for the purpose. In this case, the privilege type data memory 55 is unnecessary, and the determination of the privilege type data is unnecessary in the scanner input process and the current total key process executed by the CPU 16.

Further, in the first embodiment, the discount amount d and the discount rate e per registered point are fixed, but by providing a memory area for storing these data on the RAM 18, the user can arbitrarily specify. It becomes possible to set the discount amount d and the discount rate e to.

Further, even when the service points are increased, it is possible to carry out the operation so that the point of the product registered by the customer himself is m times that of the product registered by the cashier. That is, the service point P may be calculated by the following equation (4) in the process of ST19 in FIG. 6 (c).

P = M1 / 100 + (M2 / 100) m (4) In this equation (4), M1 is the content of the first adder M1,
M2 is the contents of the second adder M2. In this case, the counter C of the work memory 56 for one customer is unnecessary.

By the way, in the first embodiment, the privilege is given according to the number of the merchandise code read / input regardless of the operability of the merchandise code read / input. Because it is bad, take out the scanner 2 from the upstream position 41 of the soccer table 40.
Read the product code with 1, 22 and the downstream side position 42
It takes a lot of time and effort to put it in. For this reason, if there are customers who have selected many products with good operability and scanned many, and those with few scans because they have selected only products with poor operability, the latter burdens the cashier. However, there is a disadvantage in that the privilege is larger in the former case, though it is reduced.

Therefore, in order to eliminate such inconvenience, the difficulty level of the scanner input operation of the product for which the product code is read and input by the customer scanner 22 is determined and accumulated, and the discount is made based on this accumulated value. A second embodiment will be described in which a benefit such as a service point is given to a customer.

Since the external appearance and the circuit configuration of the merchandise sales registration data processing device according to the second embodiment are similar to those of the first embodiment, the description thereof will be omitted with reference to FIGS. 1 and 2. .

Now, as in the first embodiment, the RAM 18 in the ECR 10 of the product sales registration data processing device according to the second embodiment also has a product file 51 and a member file 52 as shown in FIG. Various areas such as a cash summing machine 53, a discount summing machine 54, a privilege type data memory 55, and a work memory 56 for one customer are formed.

However, in the product file 51, an area 57 for storing the operation difficulty data g of the scanner reading input is additionally formed corresponding to the product code of each product.
Then, operation difficulty level data g (the higher the difficulty level, the larger the value) arbitrarily set by the store side or the manufacturer side based on the size (volume) or weight of the corresponding product is set in advance in the area 57. It is set.

Further, the work memory for one customer 56 is
An amount adder M for adding up the amounts of the products purchased by one customer settled at CR10, and a difficulty adder G for adding the operation difficulty data of the products whose codes are read by the customer scanner 22. The registration flag F area.

In the second embodiment, the data set in the privilege type data memory 55 corresponds to the cumulative operation difficulty level of all products registered by the customer himself using the customer scanner 22. It is assumed that the data indicating the privilege of discounting is “4”, and the privilege increasing according to the operation difficulty cumulative value of all the products registered by the customer is the data “5”.

In the product sales registration data processing device according to the second embodiment, however, the code reading device 20 with the "registration" job selected by the job selection key.
When a product code (bar code) is read and input by, the CPU 16 is programmed to execute the scanner input process shown in the flowchart of FIG.

That is, the CPU 16 confirms that the "registration" job is selected in ST1, and then checks the registration flag F of the one-customer work memory 56 in ST2. When the registration flag F is reset to "0", the registration flag F is set to "1" because it is the first sales registration of the product purchased by one customer, and 1 is set as ST31. The amount adder M and the difficulty level adder G of the customer work memory 56 are cleared. Registering flag F
Is already set to "1", the above processing is not performed because the second and subsequent sales of one customer-purchased product are registered.

Next, in ST3, it is determined whether the product code is read and input by the cashier scanner 21 or the customer scanner 22. When the product code data read by the cashier scanner 21 is input, the operation is almost the same as in the case of the one embodiment.

That is, in ST4A, the merchandise file 51 is searched, registered merchandise data such as the merchandise name and unit price corresponding to the input merchandise code is read, merchandise sales data is acquired, and sales registration processing is performed in the storage unit. Next, in ST5A, the item name and the sales amount of the registered product are displayed on the upper stage of the cashier display 23 and the lower stage of the customer display 24, respectively.
At 6A, the printer 14 causes the receipt paper and the journal paper to print the name of the registered product, the number of sales, and the sales amount. After that, if the sales amount of the registered product is added to the amount adder M of the work memory 56 for one customer in ST7A, the current scanner input processing is ended.

On the other hand, when the product code data read by the customer scanner 22 is input in ST3, the product file 51 is searched in ST4B as in the first embodiment. Then, the registered product data such as the product name and unit price corresponding to the input product code is read to acquire the product sales data and the sales registration processing is performed in the storage unit.

Next, in ST5B, the product name and sales amount of the registered product are displayed on the upper stage of the customer display 24 and the lower stage of the cashier display 23, respectively, and in ST6B, the printer 14 prints the receipt paper and the journal paper. Print the name of the registered product, the number of items sold, and the amount sold. Further, the printer 14 also prints a mark "*" indicating that the customer himself / herself has registered it on the receipt paper and the journal paper. Thereafter, in ST7B, the sales amount of the registered product is added to the amount adder M of the work memory 56 for one customer.

Next, in ST32, the product file 51 is searched and the operation difficulty level data g corresponding to the input product code is retrieved.
Is read to determine the operation difficulty level of the product.
If the operation difficulty level data g is added to the difficulty level adder G of the work memory 56 for one customer in ST33, the current scanner input process is terminated.

Further, in the product sales registration data processing apparatus according to the second embodiment, when the "register" job is selected by the job selection key and the current total key of the keyboard 11 is input, the CPU 16 causes the CPU 16 shown in FIG. And the current total key process shown in the flow chart of FIG.

That is, the CPU 16 first confirms in ST11 that the "registration" job is selected, and then the ST16
At 12, the registration flag F of the work memory 56 for one customer is checked. When the flag F during registration is reset to "0", it is a mistake that the current total key is operated without registering the customer purchase merchandise. .

If the registration flag F is set to "1" in ST12, the end of registration of the customer-purchased merchandise is declared, so the contents of the privilege type data memory 55 are examined next. Here, the privilege type data in the memory 55 is “4”.
And other than "5", since the privilege for the customer's own registration is not set, the contents of the amount adder M are displayed on the display 12 as the total transaction amount M as in the case of the first embodiment. In addition to displaying, the printer 14 prints on receipt paper and journal paper. Further, the total transaction amount M is added to the cash totaling device 53. Then ST1
If the receipt issuing command is sent to the printer drive circuit 114 and the drawer opening command is sent to the drawer opening device 115 and the registering flag F of the work memory 56 for one customer is reset to "0" in step 4, this process is executed. finish.

On the other hand, when the privilege type data is "4", the discount is performed according to the operation difficulty cumulative value of all the commodities registered by the customer himself. Therefore, the process specifically shown in FIG. To execute.

That is, in ST41, the discount amount D proportional to the cumulative operation difficulty of all the commodities registered by the customer is calculated by the following equation (5).

D = G × d (5) In this equation (5), G is the stored value of the difficulty level adder G, and d is the discount amount per difficulty level (for example, 1 yen).

Next, the total transaction amount M and the discount amount D are printed on the receipt paper and the journal paper by the printer 14.

Next, at ST42, the above transaction total amount M
The total transaction amount is discounted by subtracting the discount amount D from the total transaction amount A, and the total transaction amount A after the discount is displayed on the display 12 as the price paid by the customer and printed on the receipt paper and the journal paper by the printer 14. .

Thereafter, the total transaction amount M before the discount is added to the cash total device 53, and the discount amount D is added to the discount amount total device 54.
If is added, the process proceeds to ST14. Then, if the receipt is issued, the drawer 13 is opened, and the in-registration flag F is reset to "0", this processing ends.

Further, when the privilege type data is "5", the service points corresponding to the total transaction amount are increased according to the operation difficulty cumulative value of all the products registered by the customer himself, so that FIG. The processing specifically shown in is executed.

That is, the content of the amount adder M is displayed as the total transaction amount M on the display 12, and the printer 14 prints it on receipt paper and journal paper. Further, the total transaction amount M is added to the cash totaling device 53.

Next, it is determined whether the card reader 15 has read the valid record data (customer code) of the member card issued to the service point member. If it has not been read, it means that the registration of the customer who is a non-serving point member is completed, so that the process immediately proceeds to ST14.

On the other hand, when the valid record data of the membership card is read, the registration of the customer who is a serving point member is completed, and therefore the service point P is calculated by the following equation (6) in ST43.

P = n (M / 100 + G) (6) In the equation (6), M is a stored value of the amount adder M, and G is a stored value of the difficulty level adder G. In this embodiment, the total transaction amount M is n points per 100 yen, and when the customer himself / herself registers, n points per operation difficulty level is added.

Next, in ST44, if the member file 52 is searched and the service point P is added to the cumulative point area corresponding to the customer code in the member card data read by the card reader 15, the process proceeds to ST14. . Then, the receipt is issued and the drawer 1
If the register 3 is opened and the registering flag F is reset to "0", this process ends.

Here, the privilege data is calculated based on the accumulated value by the accumulating means (the difficulty level adder G of the work memory 56 for one customer) in response to the operation input of the closing key (current key). The data calculation means uses ST4 of the current total key processing.
1 and ST43.

Also, this privilege data calculation means (ST4
1, ST43), the privilege granting means for granting the privilege data to the corresponding customer is ST of the current total key process.
42 and ST44.

Also in the product sale registration data processing apparatus of the second embodiment configured as described above, the cashier uses the cashier scanner 21 and the customer uses the customer scanner 22 as in the first embodiment. Can be used to mutually read and input the product code (bar code) of the customer's purchased product. Then, for the customer who has read and input the product code, a discount of, for example, 1 yen per difficulty level is performed according to the cumulative operation difficulty level of all the products registered by the customer, or the total transaction amount is calculated. According to the accumulated operation difficulty levels of all the products for which the customer himself has registered the service points, a privilege of increasing n points per difficulty level 1 is given.

As described above, according to the second embodiment, with respect to the customer who has read and input the product code of the customer-purchased product in cooperation with the cashier, the product for which the customer himself has read and input the product code. Benefits such as discounts and increase of service points can be automatically granted according to the operation difficulty level of. Therefore, the more the customer reads and inputs the code of the purchased product, and the more difficult the operation is, the greater the privilege will be given. Among the products to be purchased, the product code is read and input by preferring the product having a particularly high difficulty level (the product having a large size or the product having a heavy weight). As a result, the burden on the cashier is further reduced, and the accounting process is made more efficient.

Also in this case, when the customer prints the detailed information (the product name, the number of sales, the sales amount, etc.) of the product for which the customer has read and input the product code using the scanner 22 for the customer, on the receipt paper and the journal paper. At the same time, the customer registration mark "*" is also printed to distinguish it from the item information of the product registered by the cashier. Therefore, the product to which the customer registration mark "*" is added to the detailed information is a product registered by the customer himself / herself, and it is possible to make the customer strongly recognize that the privilege is given to the product registration.

In the second embodiment, the operation difficulty level data g is set in advance for each product, but the weight data and volume data of each product are set respectively, and the product code is set by the customer scanner 22. It is also possible to read the weight data and volume data of the product each time it is read and input, and to judge by calculating the operation difficulty level g by a predetermined arithmetic expression. This eliminates the trouble of the store side judging and setting the operation difficulty level of each product.

In the first and second embodiments, the cashier scanner 21 and the customer scanner 22 are each one, but a plurality of each may be used. For example, a hand scanner may be further provided as the customer scanner 22, and when the customer has a companion (child, acquaintance, etc.), that person may cooperate with the cashier to read the code of the customer-purchased product. The more the customer registers, the greater the degree of the privilege, and thus the burden on the cashier can be further reduced and the efficiency of the accounting process can be improved. Of course, various modifications can be made without departing from the scope of the present invention.
