[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Generally, electronic cash registers and P
A product sales registration data processing device called an OS terminal or the like presets transaction management data such as total sales amount, net sales amount, number of customers, tax amount, etc. based on the data related to product transactions registered by the registration means. It has a counting memory that counts according to the management items. When you specify the settlement process of the total memory by the settlement means, the data aggregated by management item in the total memory is automatically printed out on the recording paper as a settlement report. Total sales amount, net sales amount,
I was aware of store management data such as the number of customers and tax amount.

By the way, in a shopping center having a plurality of stores as tenants, it is necessary for the headquarters operating the center to grasp the management situation of each store in order to calculate the tenant fee of each store. Therefore, in many shopping centers, each store submits a daily report containing the total sales amount, the net sales amount, the number of customers, the tax amount, etc. to the center headquarters every day, and the daily sales of each store are handled by the center. It was supposed to be managed by the headquarters.

Therefore, at each store, at a predetermined time or at the time of payment at the end of the day's business, the total memory of the product sales registration data processing device that has been operating is adjusted and the profit is obtained by this payment. The prescribed daily report was created by referring to the settlement report and submitted to the center headquarters.

[0005]

[Problems to be Solved by the Invention] However, while the management items to be entered in the daily report are rough items that show the sales status of each tenant store at a glance, the management items for the settlement report, that is, management of the total memory Items cover a wide variety of items so that they can be effectively used as sales analysis and management data at each tenant store. Also, the management items of the total memory are different depending on the manufacturer and model of the product sales registration data processing device. For this reason, for example, in a store that uses two product sales registration data processing devices of different models together, the store manager or the like manages the daily report from the settlement report issued from one product sales registration data processing device. In addition to selecting the item data, select the management item data that is also required for the daily report from the settlement report issued from the other product sales registration data processing device, and add up the corresponding item data to create a daily report. It had to be done and required a lot of work.

The present invention has been made under such circumstances, and an object of the present invention is to provide a merchandise sales registration data processing device capable of easily producing a daily report. .

It is assumed to have a satellite totaling memory 6 for totaling transaction management data for each of P management items with names such as [tax exempt].

FIG. 3 is a block diagram showing the main structure of the master terminal 2.
Is equipped with a CPU (central processing unit) 11 as a control unit main body. Also, a ROM (read only memory) in which programs for controlling the CPU 11 are stored in advance.
12, RAM (random access memory) 1 forming various memory areas such as the master total memory 5
3, a clock circuit 14 for measuring the date and time, a communication interface 15 for controlling data communication with the host computer 1 via the transmission line 3, and an I / O
A port 16, a keyboard controller 17, a display controller 18, a printer controller 19, a scanner controller 20, etc. are mounted. And the CP
U11 is connected to ROM 12, RAM 13, clock circuit 14, communication interface 15, I / O port 16 and controllers 17, 18, 19, 20 of various input / output devices by a bus line 21 such as an address bus and a data bus. There is.

In the I / O port 16, "registration",
By connecting a mode switch 22 for selectively switching various business modes such as “inspection”, “payment”, “setting”, etc., and a drawer opening device 23 for opening a drawer (not shown) for accommodating cash etc. There is. Incidentally, the business mode “registration” is a mode of business in which transaction management data is registered in the master totaling memory 5 based on the data relating to the commodity transaction registered by the registration means, and the business mode “inspection” is the above-mentioned. This is a business mode in which the data collected by the master total memory 5 for each management item is printed out on a recording paper and issued as an inspection report. The operation mode “settlement” is the same as the “inspection” in the master total memory 5 Is a business mode in which the data summarized in each management item is printed out on a recording paper and issued as a settlement report, and then the data in the master total memory 5 is cleared. The business mode “setting” refers to various business modes. This is a business mode in which data required for execution is set in advance in a required memory area of the RAM 13.

[0012] The keyboard controller 17 has numerical keys for inputting numerical data such as product codes, sales amount, and sales points, as well as a subtotal key for instructing the output of the subtotal amount in one transaction, and product registration in one transaction. A keyboard 24 dedicated to the POS terminal, which is provided with various function keys such as a tightening key for declaring the closing of a key and an execution key for instructing execution of various tasks, is connected. The display controller 18 is connected to a display 25 that displays the name of registered merchandise, the amount of money, the total amount of one transaction, the amount of change, and the like.
The display 25 has two units, one for operators and one for customers. The printer controller 19 includes a printer 2 for printing data on receipt paper, journal paper, and the like.
6 are connected. The scanner controller 20 is connected to a scanner 27 that optically reads a barcode or the like attached to a product.

The RAM 13 is backed up by a battery (not shown) so that the data can be stably held even when the main power is off. And this RAM1
3, in addition to the master total memory 5, as shown in FIG. 4, the management item names ([total sales], [net sales], [number of customers],
[Tax]) and total data Z1 to Z4 are stored in the daily report creation memory 31.

Further, as shown in FIG. 5, the daily report flag f
1, a daily report management table 32 for storing daily report management data organized by each data of address A and addition / subtraction flag f2 in order of record number n, and input management organized by each data of input item name, address A and addition / subtraction flag f2 An input management table 33 for storing data in the order of record numbers is formed in the RAM 13.

Here, the daily report flag A of the daily report management data
Is a flag for identifying whether or not the data of the management item in the master total memory 5 corresponding to the corresponding record number n is used in the daily report creation work described later, and is set to "1" if the item is used. If the item is not used, it is reset to "0". Further, at the address A of the daily report management data, the data of the management item of the master totaling memory 5 corresponding to the corresponding record number n is stored in the daily report creating memory 3
The storage address when adding or subtracting to 1,
When the addition / subtraction flag f2 of the daily report management data is "1", it is added, and when it is "2", it is subtracted.

On the other hand, the input item name of the input management data is the item name of the data that needs to be input in the daily report creation work described later, and is set in the order of input, starting from the smallest record number m. Further, the address A of the input management data is a storage destination address when the input data of the corresponding item name is added to or subtracted from the daily report creation memory 31, and the addition / subtraction flag f2 of the input management data is "1". When adding,
When "2", subtract.

The master terminal 2 having such a configuration has predetermined management items (“total sales”, “net sales”, “number of customers”,
A mode switch 22 and a keyboard 24 are provided as work selecting means for selecting a daily report creating work for creating a daily report RE for visualizing aggregate data of "tax"). That is, when the operation mode “inspection” or “payment” is selected by the mode switch 22, the code of the daily report preparation work is entered by the numeric key, and subsequently the execution key is entered. The program is configured to start the daily report creation work shown in the flowchart of FIG.

When this daily report preparation work is started, the CPU
First, as ST (step) 1, 11 clears the total data Z1 to Z4 in the daily report preparation memory 31 to "0". Next, if the first counter n built in the CPU 11 is cleared to "0" in ST2, the first counter n is incremented by "1" in ST3.

Here, as ST4, the first counter n
Has exceeded the number N of records in the daily report management table 32. When the first counter n is equal to or less than the number of records N, the total data Xn of the management item corresponding to the management item number n is read from the master total memory 5 in ST5, and the record number is read from the daily report management table 32 in ST6. Read n daily report management data. And
In ST7, the daily report flag f1 of this daily report management data is checked. If the daily report flag f1 is reset to "0", the totalized data read out in ST5 is unnecessary for the daily report preparation work, so the totalized data is discarded and the process returns to ST3. On the other hand, the daily report flag f1
If is set to "1", the total data read in ST5 is the data necessary for the daily report creation work.
In step ST8, this aggregated data is added to the area of the daily report creation memory 31 designated by the storage destination address A in the corresponding daily report management data. At this time, if the addition / subtraction flag f2 in the relevant daily report management data is "1", the aggregated data is added as a positive value, and if the addition / subtraction flag f2 is "2", it is added as a negative value. Then, the process returns to ST3.

In this way, the first counter n which counts up by "1" is the number N of records in the daily report management table 32.
The processes of ST3 to ST8 are repeated until the value exceeds. When the first counter n exceeds the number N of records in the daily report management table 32, the input control process concretely shown in FIG. 7 starts.

That is, the CPU 11 first clears the second counter m built in the CPU 11 to "0" at ST9 and then increments the second counter m by "1" at ST10. At ST11, it is determined whether or not the second counter m exceeds the number M of records in the input management table 33. Then, when the second counter m is equal to or less than the number of records M, the input management data of the record number m is read from the input management table 33 in ST12. Then, if the input item name of this input management data is displayed on the display unit 25 as ST13,
It waits for data input from the keyboard 24 as 14.

Here, when the numerical data is entered by the numerical key and the subtotal key is subsequently operated, whether the numerical data entered in ST15 is valid or not is judged from, for example, the number of digits, and it is determined to be valid. When it is determined, as ST16, this numerical data is added to the area of the daily report preparation memory 31 designated by the storage destination address A in the corresponding input management data. At this time,
If the addition / subtraction flag f2 in the corresponding input management data is "1", the aggregated data is added as a positive value, and the addition / subtraction flag f is added.
If 2 is "2", it is added as a negative value. After that,
Return to ST10. When it is determined that the numerical data entered in ST15 is invalid, the process returns to ST13 and prompts the user to re-enter the data.

In this way, the second counter m which counts up by "1" is the number M of records in the input management table 33.
The processes of ST10 to ST16 are repeated until the value exceeds. Then, when the second counter m exceeds the number M of records in the input management table 33, the input control processing ends.

Then, the CPU 11 reads the management item name stored in the daily report preparation memory 31 and the totalized data Z1 to Z4 corresponding to the management item name as ST17 in FIG.
The data is converted into print data and given to the printer controller 19. The date and time data read from the clock circuit 14 is also converted into print data and given to the printer controller 19. Thus, when the printer 16 controls the printer 16 to create and issue the daily report RE of the print format shown in FIG. 8 on the receipt paper, the CPU 11 ends the daily report creation task.

The daily report RE may be printed on the journal paper as well as the receipt paper. Alternatively, two daily report REs may be issued in succession, one of which may be submitted to the center headquarters CE and the other may be kept as a copy of the store.

In the present embodiment having such a configuration,
Now, the management item “total sales” of the daily report RE corresponds to the management item “total sales” in the master total memory 5, and the management item “total sales” in the satellite total memory 6 respectively. The “net sales” corresponds to the management item “net sales” in the master total memory 5, and the management item “sales” in the satellite total memory 6, and the management item “number of customers” in the daily report RE corresponds to the master total memory 5 and The management item “number of customers” is equivalent to each of the satellite total memories 6. Further, the management item “tax” of the daily report RE corresponds to the sum of the three management items “external tax 1”, “external tax 2” and “internal tax” in the master total memory 5, and in the satellite total memory 6 It is assumed that the sum of the four items of the management items "external tax 1", "external tax 2", "internal tax 1" and "internal tax 2" corresponds.

In this case, in the tenant store SH1 which uses only the master terminal 2, the daily report management table 32 in which the daily report management data of record numbers 1 to N shown in FIG. 5 are set may be prepared in advance. On the other hand, in the tenant store SH2 that also uses the satellite terminal 4 together with the master terminal 2, the input management table 33 in which the input management data of record numbers 1 to 7 shown in FIG. Should be created.

By doing so, the tenant store SH1
In the above, when the daily report preparation work of the master terminal 2 is executed at a fixed time or at the time of settlement after the end of business on the first day, first, each aggregated data Z1 to Z in the daily report preparation memory 31.
4 is cleared to "0".

Next, the management item "GT" of the head management number "1" of the master total memory 5 is the record number "1".
Since the daily report flag f1 of the daily report management data is 0, it is ignored. Next, regarding the management item “total sales” with the management number “2” in the master totaling memory 5, the daily report flag f1 of the daily report management data with the record number “2” is “1”, the storage destination address A is “1”, and the addition / subtraction is performed. Since the flag f2 is "1", the aggregated data X2 of the management item "total sales" corresponds to the management item "total sales" corresponding to the address "1" of the daily report creation memory 31.
Is added to the aggregated data Z1.

Thereafter, in the same manner, the master totalizing memory 5
In the management item “net sales” with the management number “3”, the daily report flag f1 of the daily report management data with the record number “3” is “1”,
Storage destination address A is "2", addition / subtraction flag f2 is "1"
Therefore, the total data X3 of the management item "net sales" is added to the total data Z2 of the management item "net sales" corresponding to the address "2" of the daily report creation memory 31, and the management number "4" of the master total memory 5 is added. In the management item "number of customers", the daily report flag f1 of the daily report management data of the record number "4" is "1", the storage destination address A is "3", and the addition / subtraction flag f2.
Since "1", the total data X of this management item "number of customers"
4 is added to the aggregated data Z3 of the management item "number of customers" corresponding to the address "3" of the daily report creation memory 31.

Further, the management item "external tax 1" of the management number "6", the management item "external tax 2" of the management number "7" and the management item "internal tax" of the management number "8" of the master totaling memory 5 are stored.
Is the daily report flag f1 of the corresponding daily report management data.
Is “1”, the storage destination address A is “4”, the addition / subtraction flag f
Since 2 is "1", the management data "external tax 1", "external tax 2", and the aggregated data X6, X7, and X8 of "internal tax" all correspond to the address "4" of the daily report preparation memory 31. It is added to the total data Z2 of the item "tax".

After that, the master terminal 2 enters the input control process. In this case, since no data is set in the input management table 33, the input control process is immediately terminated and the printer 26 operates to print the receipt paper. The contents of the daily report creation memory 31 are printed out, and the daily report R
Issued as E.

That is, in the tenant store SH1, the predetermined daily report RE can be obtained by a simple operation of selecting and executing the daily report creation work at the master terminal 2.

On the other hand, also in the tenant store SH2, when the daily report preparation work of the master terminal 2 is executed at a fixed time or at the time of settlement after the end of business on one day, first, each aggregated data Z1 to Z4 in the daily report preparation memory 31 becomes "0". "Cleared.

Next, as in the case of the tenant store SH1, as the aggregated data Z1 of the management item "total sales" in the daily report creation memory 31, the aggregated data X2 of the management item "total sales" in the master aggregate memory 5 is stored. As the total data Z2 of the management item “net sales” in the daily report creation memory 31,
The total data X3 of the management item "net sales" of the master total memory 5 is stored, and the total data X4 of the management item "number of customers" of the master total memory 5 is stored as the total data Z3 of the management item "number of customers" of the daily report creation memory 31. As the aggregated data Z4 of the management item “tax” of the daily report creation memory 31, the aggregated data X6, X7 of the management items “external tax 1”, “external tax 2” and “internal tax” of the master aggregate memory 5 are stored. The total sum of X8 is stored.

After that, the master terminal 2 enters the input control process. Then, first, based on the input management data of the record number "1" of the input management table 33, a screen prompting the input of the management item "sales" is displayed on the display 25. Therefore, the person in charge of the tenant store SH2 refers to the inspection report of the satellite total memory 6 of the satellite terminal 4 which has been printed out in advance, and uses the keyboard 24 to calculate the total data Y1 of the management item "sales" in this inspection report. Enter with. Then, the input data Y1 is added to the totalized data Z2 corresponding to the address "2" of the daily report preparation memory 31.

Next, a screen prompting the operator to input the management item "number of customers" is displayed on the display 25 based on the input management data of the record number "2" of the input management table 33. Total data Y of management item "number of customers"
3 is input by the keyboard 24. Then, the input data Y3 is added to the total data Z3 corresponding to the address "3" of the daily report creation memory 31.

Next, a screen prompting the user to input the management item "total sales" is displayed on the display 25 based on the input management data of the record number "3" of the input management table 33, so that the person in charge is in the inspection report. Input the totalized data Y4 of the management item "total sales" of the above with the keyboard 24. Then, this input data Y4 becomes the address "1" of the daily report creation memory 31.
Is added to the aggregated data Z1 corresponding to.

Next, based on the input management data of the record number "4" of the input management table 33, a screen prompting the operator to enter the management item "excluding tax amount 1" is displayed on the display unit 25. The totalized data Y5 of the management item "excluding tax amount 1" in the middle is input by the keyboard 24. Then, this input data Y5 becomes the address "4" of the daily report creation memory 31.
Is added to the totalized data Z4 corresponding to.

Thereafter, similarly, based on the input management data of the record numbers "5" to "7" of the input management table 33, the management items "external tax amount 2", "internal tax amount 1",
The screen prompting you to enter the "tax included amount 2" will be displayed in order.
The person in charge inputs the total data Y6 of the management item “external tax amount 2” in the inspection report, the total data Y7 of “inside tax amount 1”, and the total data Y8 of “inside tax amount 2” using the keyboard 24 in order. Then, all of the input data Y6, Y7, Y8 are added to the total data Z4 corresponding to the address "4" of the daily report preparation memory 31.

In this way, the total data Y8 of "tax included amount 2"
When inputting is completed, the input control process ends and the printer 2
6 operates to print out the contents of the daily report preparation memory 31 on the receipt paper and issue it as a daily report RE.

That is, in the tenant store SH2, if the daily report preparation work is selected and executed in the master terminal 2, the corresponding data printed on the settlement report in the satellite total memory 6 is keyed in according to the display on the display 25. Only by doing so, it is possible to obtain a predetermined daily report RE that combines the sales of the master terminal 2 and the satellite terminal 4.

As described above, according to the present embodiment, anyone can easily obtain the predetermined daily report RE by only setting desired data in the daily report management table 32 and the input management table 33 in advance. Like As a result, the work load required for creating the daily report RE can be significantly reduced, and calculation errors can be eliminated, so that the reliability of the daily report RE can be improved, and other excellent effects can be obtained.

In the above embodiment, one satellite terminal 4 is used, but even if two or more satellite terminals 4 are used together,
Record number "1" of the input management table 33 shown in FIG.
This can be handled by repeatedly setting the data of "7" for the number of units. The items to be input in the input control process are not limited to the management items of the satellite total memory 6. For example, when it is necessary to input the amount of money in the drawer as the management item of the daily report, the input management data of the item “amount of money in the drawer” is set in the input management table 33. By doing so, in the input control process, a screen prompting the user to input the item “money amount in drawer” is automatically displayed, and the administrator only has to input the money amount in the drawer according to this display. It can have various effects. Of course, various modifications can be made without departing from the scope of the present invention.
