Description

  An embodiment of the present invention relates to an information display device and information for constructing a system that stores and saves a coordinated image captured by coordinating clothing and makes the coordinated image stored and stored available to customers. The present invention relates to a computer program for a display device.

  It is difficult to grasp the image of clothing if you do not see it in a try-on state. Moreover, coordination is required to wear clothing. Therefore, in recent years, as a form of sales at boutiques, the store clerk coordinates the clothes sold at the store or affiliated stores, and appeals the product to customers including the sense of coordination. The sales form is generalized. Here, for convenience, such a sales form is referred to as “coordinated sales”.

  The inventors of this application conducted a prior art search on a technology that can support coordinated sales using IT technology. As a result, Patent Document 1 was found.

  Patent Document 1 describes a technique in which coordinate information is registered (see paragraphs 0072 to 0079), and the registered coordinate information can be inquired and displayed (see paragraphs 0080 to 0094). The display of coordinate information in this case is a list display of text data (see paragraph 0091). However, it is also suggested that image information is displayed for each product included in the coordination information (see paragraph 0092).

  In stores that handle clothing items such as boutiques, there are cases where discount sales are carried out by means of a stock clearing sale or seasonal products. In this case, it is generally the store or the management team of the company having the store that has the authority to determine the product to be discounted.

  On the other hand, in the coordinated sales, it is the store clerk who coordinates the clothing, but the store clerk often does not have the authority to determine the product to be discounted. However, since it is the store clerk who coordinates clothing at the store, it is often the case that the store clerk has a higher sensitivity than the management about the impact of product prices on sales promotion. . In other words, in the case of adopting the sales form of coordinated sales, the store clerk feels the customer's trends with the skin, so both skills and experience are high in both the aesthetic aspect of clothing coordination and the sales aspect of sales promotion. Will have.

  However, as described above, in discount sales, the store clerk often does not have the authority to determine the product to be discounted. For this reason, shop assistants must sacrifice the aesthetic element of coordination if they want to promote sales through discounts, and make use of preferential discount settings when promoting sales based on free coordination. I cannot help but sacrifice the sales factor.

Information display device of embodiment includes a display unit, and a table示制control means. The display unit is for displaying information . Before Symbol display control means, Ru display the coordinated image captured by coordinating a plurality of goods before Symbol display unit. Further, the display control means, a trade name of each product that is coordinated in front Symbol coordinated image together is displayed on the display unit together with the coordinated image, the plurality of items that are coordinated in the coordinate image If the combination of the belonging category satisfies the stored discounted rule in the storage unit, Ru discount information based on the discount rule is displayed on the display unit together with the coordinated image.

  Therefore, the merchandise master area 21 is constructed with a merchandise information database that stores and saves merchandise information including at least the price of the merchandise AL in correspondence with the merchandise AL specified by the individual merchandise ID (product code).

  FIG. 10 is a schematic diagram showing recorded data of the salesclerk master area 22 recorded in the HDD 208 of the information storage device 101. The store clerk master area 22 is associated with a store clerk ID (store clerk code) that identifies a store clerk as a subject, and the subject's name (text data), affiliated store (text data), point (alphanumeric data), and image use The permission status is stored. The store clerk ID (store clerk code) is specified when logging into the information storage device 101.

  FIG. 11 is a schematic diagram showing recorded data of the customer master area 23 recorded in the HDD 208 of the information storage device 101. The customer master area 23 stores the customer's name (text data), purchase history (text data), and points (alphanumeric data) in association with a customer ID (customer code) that identifies the customer. The customer ID (customer code) is specified when logging in to the information storage device 101.

  Here, the clerk ID (clerk code) itself includes a code common to all clerk IDs (clerk codes) indicating that it is a clerk code. Further, the customer ID (customer code) itself includes a code common to all customer IDs (customer codes) indicating that it is a customer code. Accordingly, the clerk master area 22 shown in FIG. 10 and the customer master area 23 shown in FIG. 11 function as a login table that defines identification codes (a clerk code and a customer code) based on two types of code systems that can be logged in.

  FIG. 12 is a schematic diagram showing recorded data of the usage range master area 24 recorded in the HDD 208 of the information storage apparatus 101. The usage range master area 24 stores a usage range in association with a usage range ID that specifies the usage range. The use range means a use range of an image captured by the camera 107 or an external camera (not shown). For example, the use range is defined as the use range only at the own store to which the store clerk belongs, the use at the store other than the own store in addition to the own store (public use), the use at the WEB in addition to the own store (WEB use), etc. Has been. As an example, the usage range when the usage range ID is A is defined as usage only at the own store to which the store clerk belongs, and the usage range when the usage range ID is B is defined as public usage. The usage range when the ID is C is defined as WEB usage.

  FIG. 13 is a schematic diagram showing recorded data in the meta image storage area 25 recorded in the HDD 208 of the information storage device 101. The meta image storage area 25 is an image ID that identifies an image captured by the camera 107 or an external camera (not shown) and captured by the microcomputer 201, and is an image captured by the camera 107 or an external camera (not shown). Binary data that is data of a coordinated image and its path name are stored in association with each other. The path name includes the data format of binary data. Therefore, as another embodiment, the binary data itself is not stored in the meta image storage area 25 but stored in any storage area, and only the path name is stored in the meta image storage area 25. It is also possible. When such a data structure is adopted, a meta image can be searched using a path name as a key.

  FIG. 14 is a schematic diagram showing recorded data in the coordinate information area 26 recorded in the HDD 208 of the information storage device 101. The coordinate information area 26 is associated with a coordinate ID that identifies individual coordinates by the store clerk, image ID, product ID (product code), item information (text data), store clerk ID (text code), store clerk information (name and name). (Text data of affiliated store), comment (text data), and usage range ID are stored in association with each other. Therefore, by referring to the coordinate information area 26, for example, a series of corresponding data can be searched using the coordinate ID as a key. If the store clerk ID is found by the search, binary data can be acquired from the meta image storage area 25, and if the use range ID is found by the search, the use range can be acquired from the use range master area 24. .

  Therefore, the meta-image storage area 25 and the coordinate information area 26 include a coordinate image (binary data) captured by coordinating clothing that is the product AL and a product ID (product code) of the clothing coordinated in the coordinated image. A coordinate database is built to store and store

  FIG. 15 is a schematic diagram showing recorded data in the discount rule area 27 recorded in the HDD 208 of the information storage device 101. The discount rule area 27 stores and saves a rule master name, a determination criterion, and discount contents in association with a rule master ID that identifies each discount rule.

For example, the rule master name is associated with each rule master ID,
Rule master ID = 1: 2 item season discount Rule master ID = 2: 2 item discount Rule master ID = 3: 3 item discount, etc., a name that can make a discount rule intuitive is given.

As a determination criterion, a determination rule for such a discount rule is set. For example, as a judgment standard corresponding to each rule master ID,
Rule master ID = 1: 2 items or more and category winter Rule master ID = 2: 2 items or more in total and 10,000 yen or more in total Rule master ID = 3: 3 items or more in total and each product AL A cost of 3,000 yen or more is set. In other words, the criterion set in association with the rule master ID “1” is that the purchase is a total of two or more items, and the category of each product AL sold is winter. The criterion set in correspondence with the rule master ID “2” is that the purchase is a total of 2 items or more and the total sales amount is 10,000 yen or more. The criterion set in correspondence with the rule master ID “3” is that the purchase is a total of 3 items or more and the cost of each sold product AL is 3,000 yen or more. .

In the discount contents, the discount contents when the judgment criteria are met are set. For example, as discount contents corresponding to individual rule master IDs,
Rule master ID = 1: Total 50% discount Rule master ID = 2: Total 10% discount Rule master ID = 3: Total 20% discount is set.

  Here, the “category winter” set as the criterion for the rule master ID = 1 can be determined by referring to the category in the product master area 21. Further, whether or not “total 10,000 yen or more” set in the criterion of the rule master ID = 2 can be determined by referring to the price in the product master area 21. The presence / absence of “the cost of each product AL of 3,000 yen or more” set as the criterion for the rule master ID = 3 can be determined by referring to the cost in the product master area 21.

  Therefore, in the discount rule area 27, for example, when one or two or more products AL that can be determined whether or not they are compatible can be purchased based on product information (category, price, cost) stored and stored in the product master area 21. Discount rule information that defines discount conditions and the corresponding discount contents is constructed.

2. Discount rule setting phase The discount rule setting phase is executed at the headquarters H. In this phase, data is stored and saved in the discount rule area 27 (see FIG. 15) provided in the HDD 15 of the host computer 11 using the operation terminal 12 provided in the headquarter H.

  The operation terminal 12 installed in the headquarter H can input data to the HDD 15 managed by the host computer 11 by a computer program installed in the HDD (not shown). That is, the operation terminal 12 uses the operation input unit 16 and the display unit 17, the product master area 21, the store clerk master area 22, the customer master area 23, the usage range master area 24, and the usage range provided in the HDD 15 of the host computer 11. Data stored in the discount rule area 27 can be input.

  FIG. 16 is a schematic diagram illustrating an example of the discount rule setting screen SR displayed on the display unit 17 of the operation terminal 12. The operation terminal 12 displays a discount rule setting screen SR as shown in FIG. 16 on the operation terminal 12 by a processing process of a CPU (not shown) according to a computer program installed in the HDD (not shown). Display on the unit 17. The discount rule setting screen SR has an edit area SR1, and additionally has a registration button SR2, an edit button SR3, a delete button SR4, and a return button SR5. In the editing area SR1, an editing screen SR1-1 is displayed in a table format. Each setting item of the discount rule area 27 shown in FIG. 15 is displayed on the edit screen SR1-1. Among these, the rule master ID numbers (1, 2, 3,... N) appear in advance on the edit screen SR1-1. Other items such as the rule master name, determination criteria, and discount contents can be input by the operation input unit 16.

  In accordance with a computer program installed in the HDD (not shown) of the operation terminal 12, the CPU (not shown) of the operation terminal 12 displays the discount rule setting screen SR on the display unit 17. Then, when the edit button SR3 is selected and designated by the operation input unit 16 in the discount rule setting screen SR, the CPU (not shown) of the operation terminal 12 is in the edit screen SR1-1 displayed in the edit area SR1. , The rule master name, determination criteria, and discount contents can be input by the operation input unit 16. The input data is transmitted to the host computer 11 and stored in the discount rule area 27 shown in FIG. 15 when the registration button SR2 displayed on the discount rule setting screen SR is selected and designated by the operation input unit 16. Is done. On the other hand, for example, the delete button SR4 displayed on the discount rule setting screen SR with the rule master ID number (1, 2, 3,... N) selected and designated by the operation input unit 16 is operated. When the part 16 is selected and designated, the rule master name associated with the number, the determination criterion, and the instruction to delete the discount contents are transmitted to the host computer 11 and deleted from the discount rule area 27 shown in FIG. The

3. Discount Rule Browsing Phase The discount rule browsing phase is executed at each store S where the information storage device 101 is installed. In this phase, the discount rule data set in the discount rule area 27 (see FIG. 15) provided in the HDD 15 of the host computer 11 is called to the information storage device 101 and can be browsed by the information storage device 101. Hereinafter, the discount rule browsing phase will be described with reference to FIGS. 17 and 18.

  FIG. 17 is a flowchart showing the flow of the discount rule browsing process executed by the information storage device 101. The computer program installed in the program area PA of the HDD 208 of the information storage apparatus 101 includes a discount rule browsing process program for browsing discount rules. The discount rule browsing process program is copied to the RAM 205 and used when the information storage apparatus 101 is started. The processing of the flowchart shown in FIG. 17 shows the processing contents executed by the CPU 202 in accordance with the discount rule browsing processing program copied to the RAM 205 in this way.

  First, the CPU 202 of the information storage device 101 executes discount rule data acquisition processing (step S11). In this process, the host computer 11 is accessed via the network card 210 and the communication line network 51, and a transmission request for discount rule data stored in the discount rule area 27 provided in the HDD 15 is transmitted to the host computer 11. Start by doing. Then, the discount rule data stored in the discount rule area 27 sent back from the host computer 11 is received and completed.

  Next, the CPU 202 of the information storage device 101 displays and outputs the discount rule data received in step S11 on the liquid crystal display 103, and displays the discount rule browsing screen BR (step S12).

  FIG. 18 is a schematic diagram illustrating an example of a discount rule browsing screen BR displayed on the liquid crystal display 103 of the information storage device 101. On the discount rule browsing screen BR, a discount rule display field BR1, a coordinate registration button BR2, and a return button BR3 are displayed. In the discount rule display field BR1, a discount rule screen BR1-1 is displayed in a table format. The discount rule screen BR1-1 is displayed based on the discount rule data received in step S11.

  The coordinate registration button BR2 is a button for declaring a shift to a coordinate information registration phase described later. Therefore, in the information storage device 101, as shown in the flowchart of FIG. 17, when the coordinate registration button BR2 is selected and specified by the touch panel 105 and coordinate registration is specified (Y in step S13), the coordinate information registration phase described later is entered. The process is terminated (step S14).

  The return button BR3 is a button for declaring that the discount rule browsing screen BR is returned to the previous screen. Therefore, in the information storage device 101, as shown in the flowchart of FIG. 17, when the return BR3 is selected and specified by the touch panel 105 (Y in step S15), the previous screen is displayed on the liquid crystal display 103 and the process is terminated ( Step S16).

  Here, in the discount rule browsing phase, the discount rule browsing screen BR can be displayed on the liquid crystal display 103 of the information storage device 101. Thereby, the salesclerk who operates the information storage apparatus 101 can confirm the content of the discount rule. In this case, the discount rule defines a discount condition when one or more products AL are purchased and the corresponding discount contents. That is, the discount rule is not defined in units of individual products AL (items) but is defined as a discount condition. For this reason, when a sales clerk intends to promote sales by discounting in coordinated sales, it is relatively easy to coordinate the discount conditions in consideration of the discount rules learned by browsing the discount rule browsing screen BR. . As a result, it is possible to support the realization of coordinated sales that can promote sales taking into consideration the business aspect of discounting without sacrificing free coordination that should be determined exclusively from the aesthetic aspect.

4). Coordinate Information Registration Phase The coordinate information registration phase is executed at each store S where the information storage device 101 is installed. This phase is a phase in which a store clerk registers a coordinated image of clothing sold in the store S together with other information. Hereinafter, the coordinate information registration phase will be described with reference to FIGS.

  FIG. 19 is a flowchart showing a flow of coordinate information registration processing executed by the information storage device 101. In the computer program installed in the program area PA of the HDD 208 of the information storage device 101, image data captured by the camera 107 or an external camera (not shown) is stored in the HDD 15 of the host computer 11 installed in the headquarter H. Includes a coordinate information registration processing program for storing and registering in the meta image storage area 25 and the coordinate information area 26. The program for coordinate information registration processing is copied to the RAM 205 and used at the time of activation. The processing of the flowchart shown in FIG. 19 shows the processing contents executed by the CPU 202 in accordance with the program for registration information registration processing copied to the RAM 205 in this way.

  First, the CPU 202 of the information storage device 101 executes a process of setting the use range of the captured image (step S101). That is, the CPU 202 outputs a signal for displaying the usage range selection screen A on the liquid crystal display 103 to the video controller 207 and waits for information input from the touch panel 105.

  FIG. 20 is a schematic diagram illustrating an example of a usage range selection screen A displayed on the liquid crystal display 103 of the information storage device 101. On the usage range selection screen A, a usage range selection area A1, a selected usage range display area A2, a usage range commentary area A3, a registration button A4, and a cancel button A5 are displayed. The usage range selection area A1 displays a pull-down list of usage range IDs A1-2 that can be selected by touch designation of the pull-down instruction object A1-1. Therefore, the usage range is selected by selecting a desired usage range ID from the pull-down display usage range ID list A1-2. At this time, in the usage range commentary area A3, the usage range that can be selected from the usage range ID list A1-2 is explained. The selected usage range is displayed in the selected usage range display area A2. When the registration button A4 is touch-designated in this state, the use range of the captured image is set. That is, the usage range ID for specifying the selected usage range is temporarily stored in the RAM 205, and the process of step S101 in the flowchart of FIG. 19 is completed. On the other hand, when the cancel button A5 is touch-designated, a cancel process is performed, and the coordinate information registration process ends.

  Returning to the description of the flowchart shown in FIG. When the setting of the use range of the captured image shown in step S101 is completed, display processing of the coordinate editing screen B (see FIGS. 21 to 24) is executed (step S102). That is, the CPU 202 outputs a signal for displaying the coordinate editing screen B on the liquid crystal display 103 to the video controller 207.

  FIG. 21 is a schematic diagram illustrating an example of the coordinate editing screen B displayed on the liquid crystal display 103 of the information storage device 101. The coordinate editing screen B includes an image display area B1, a store clerk name display area B2, a store name display area B3, a product name display area B4, a comment input field B5, an image selection button B6, and a reading start button B7. A read stop button B8, a save button B9, a clear button B10, and a return button B11 are displayed.

  The image display area B1 is secured in the information storage device 101 for displaying a coordinated image based on the image data of the captured image output from the camera 107 or an external camera (not shown) and captured by the microcomputer 201. It is an area. Shooting by the camera 107 or an external camera (not shown) is executed by touch designation of the reading start button B7 and the reading stop button B8. That is, when the reading start button B7 is touch-designated, shooting is performed by the camera 107 or an external camera (not shown), and the captured image is displayed as a moving image in the image display area B1. The store clerk who is the photographer and the subject touches and designates the reading stop button B8 at the shooting timing. Thereby, the image data at that moment is taken in and displayed as a coordinated image as a still image in the image display area B1. In addition, in the image display area B1, not only the coordinate image based on the image data of the captured image output from the camera 107 or the external camera (not shown) but captured by the microcomputer 201, the image selection button B6 is touch-designated. Thus, it is possible to display a coordinated image based on image data that can be designated in advance and is recorded and stored in the HDD 15 of the host computer 11 or the like. In a state where image data to be a coordinated image is not captured, the coordinate image is not displayed in the image display area B1, and only the status display “waiting for photographing” is displayed (see FIG. 21).

  The clerk name display area B2 is an area reserved for displaying the name of the clerk. In this case, the name data includes the clerk code read and output by the RFID reader / writer 111 from the ID card possessed by the clerk by the microcomputer 201, and the clerk ID, which is the fetched clerk code, as a key. Is the name of the clerk obtained by searching from the clerk master area 22 (see FIG. 10) provided in FIG. At this time, since the store belonging to the store clerk can also be acquired from the store clerk master area 22, the acquired store belonging is displayed in the store name display area B3. In a state where the clerk code is not read, the clerk's name and store name are not displayed in the clerk name display area B2 and the store name display area B3, and the display is blank.

  The product name display area B4 is an area reserved for displaying the product name selected by the store clerk. The product name data in this case is searched based on the product code read from the RFID chip built in the product tag attached to the product AL. That is, the RFID reader / writer 111 reads the product code stored in the RFID chip, and the microcomputer 201 takes it in. The CPU 202 of the information storage device 101 searches the product master area 21 (see FIG. 9) provided in the HDD 15 of the host computer 11 using the product ID, which is the imported product code, as a key, and obtains product name data. In a state where the product code is not read, the product name is not displayed in the product name display area B4, and is in a blank display state.

  Comments can be written in the comment input field B5. As an example, the comment can be input by displaying a keyboard on the liquid crystal display 103 of the information storage device 101 by touch designation in the comment input field B5 and using the displayed keyboard.

  The image selection button B6, the reading start button B7, and the reading stop button B8 are objects that play the roles described above. The save button B9, the clear button B10, and the return button B11 are objects for touch-designating save, clear, and process return, respectively.

  Returning to the description of the flowchart shown in FIG. After the display processing of the coordinate editing screen B shown in step S102 is executed, the process waits for camera shooting or image selection (step S103). That is, the CPU 202 of the information storage apparatus 101 receives the coordinated image based on the image data of the captured image output from the camera 107 or the external camera (not shown) or converts the existing image data based on the touch designation of the image selection button B6. Waiting for selection of coordinated image based. Then, when the CPU 202 acquires image data to be a coordinated image, the CPU 202 determines an image ID for the acquired image data and temporarily stores it in the RAM 205. Then, the video controller 207 is driven and controlled to display a coordinated image based on the image data (step S104). As a result, the video controller 207 expands the image data in the image memory in the RAM 205. Then, the CPU 202 drives and controls the video controller 207 so as to display the image data developed in the image memory as a coordinate image in the image display area B1 of the coordinate editing screen B (step S105). As a result, a coordinated image based on the image data is displayed in the image display area B1 of the coordinate editing screen B.

  FIG. 22 is a schematic diagram illustrating an example of the coordinate editing screen B after displaying the coordinate image displayed on the liquid crystal display 103 of the information storage device 101.

  Returning to the description of the flowchart shown in FIG. The CPU 202 of the information storage device 101 activates the RFID reader / writer 111 after the display processing of the coordinate editing screen B (step S105), and supplies the output to the RFID antenna (not shown) (step S106). As a result, the CPU 202 can capture not only the operation input from the touch panel 105 but also the data input by the reading input from the RFID reader / writer 111. Therefore, as a subsequent process, the CPU 202 waits for an event input presence / absence determination process and an event type determination process (step S107).

  If there is an output from the RFID reader / writer 111 (RFID reading) during the event input determination and event type determination processing shown in step S107 in step S107, the CPU 202 of the information storage device 101 determines the type (step S108). That is, as described above, the clerk who is the subject possesses an ID card (not shown) that contains an RFID chip that stores a clerk code that identifies the subject, and the product AL has the product AL. A radio tag RT containing an RFID chip that stores a product code to be identified is attached. Therefore, the RFID reader / writer 111 receives a clerk code that identifies the clerk from the ID card possessed by the clerk that is the subject, and receives a product code that identifies the product AL from the product tag attached to the product AL. The received identification code and product code are output.

  The microcomputer 201 of the information storage device 101 takes in the store clerk code and the product code output from the RFID reader / writer 111 from the serial port 209 via the I / O interface IF, and determines RFID reading in step S107. The store clerk code (store clerk ID) stored in the ID card possessed by the store clerk that is the subject includes data indicating the store clerk code, and the product stored in the product tag attached to the product AL. Since the code (product ID) includes data indicating a product code, the type can be determined in step S108.

  When the CPU 202 of the information storage device 101 determines the clerk ID in the type determination process in step S108 (a clerk ID in step S108), the CPU 202 executes the process in step S109. That is, the captured clerk ID is temporarily stored in the work area of the RAM 205. Then, the store clerk ID and the store are searched for and acquired from the store clerk master area 22 (see FIG. 10), and the acquired name of the subject is displayed in the store clerk name display area B2. The store is displayed in the store name display area B3 (see FIG. 23). Thereafter, the CPU 202 returns to the process of step S106.

  FIG. 23 is a schematic diagram illustrating an example of the coordinate editing screen B after the coordinated image displayed on the liquid crystal display 103 of the information storage device 101 and after the clerk code is input.

  Returning to the description of the flowchart shown in FIG. When CPU 202 determines the product ID in the type determination process in step S108 (product ID in step S108), CPU 202 executes the process in step S110. That is, the captured product ID is temporarily stored in the work area of the RAM 205. The product name is searched and acquired from the product master area 21 (see FIG. 9) provided in the HDD 15 of the host computer 11 using the acquired product ID as a key, and the name of the acquired product AL is displayed as a product name. Display in area B4 (see FIG. 24). Thereafter, the CPU 202 returns to the process of step S106.

  FIG. 24 is a schematic diagram illustrating an example of a coordinate editing screen B after displaying a coordinate image displayed on the liquid crystal display 103 of the information storage device 101 and after inputting a clerk code and a product code.

  Returning to the description of the flowchart shown in FIG. When the CPU 202 of the information storage apparatus 101 determines a reading target other than the store clerk ID and the product ID in the type determination process in step S108 (others in step S108), the process returns to the process in step S106 as it is.

  The process (steps S108 to 110) in the case where the CPU 202 of the information storage apparatus 101 determines RFID reading (RFID reading in step S107) in the determination process of the presence / absence of event input and the event type shown in step S107 has been described above. On the other hand, when the CPU 202 determines touch designation of the save button B9 by the touch panel 105 in the determination process of presence / absence of event input and event type shown in step S107 (save button in step S107), the image data is stored. Execute the registration process of the coordination information including. Next, coordinate information registration processing will be described.

  First, the CPU 202 of the information storage device 101 determines whether or not use of the image displayed in the image display area B1 of the coordinate editing screen B has been permitted by the salesclerk who is the subject (step S111). Whether or not the salesclerk who is the subject has already been permitted to use the image displayed in the image display area B 1 is determined by referring to the status temporarily stored in the RAM 205. That is, when the clerk code is read from the ID card possessed by the clerk (see steps S107 to 108), the read clerk code is temporarily stored in the work area of the RAM 205 as the clerk ID (step S109). At this time, the CPU 202 sets a status as to whether or not the salesclerk who is the subject has permitted the use of the image displayed in the image display area B1 for the temporarily stored salesclerk ID, and manages the presence or absence of the permission. I can do it. The permission in this case is made by touch designation of the permission button C2 (see FIG. 25) of the usage permission screen C displayed on the liquid crystal display 103 in step S112 described later. Therefore, the CPU 202 of the information storage device 101 refers to the image use permission status (see FIG. 10) set in the clerk ID temporarily stored in the work area of the RAM 205 in the determination process of step S111, and determines the subject as the subject. A certain clerk determines whether or not the use of the image displayed in the image display area B1 has been permitted.

  Next, when the CPU 202 of the information storage device 101 determines that the salesclerk who is the subject has not permitted the use of the image displayed in the image display area B1 (N in step S111), the use permission screen C (see FIG. 25). ) Is pop-up displayed on the coordinate editing screen B (step S112).

  FIG. 25 is a schematic diagram illustrating an example of a usage permission screen C displayed on the liquid crystal display 103 of the information storage device 101. On the use permission screen C, a permission item display area C1 indicating permission contents, a permission button C2, and a permission rejection button C3 are displayed. In the permission item display area C1, a permission content such as “I grant the right to use an image / registration information taken by the system” is displayed. The permission button C2 is an object that is touch-designated to indicate a consent intention display, and the permission rejection button C3 is an object that is touch-designated to indicate a permission rejection intention display.

  The CPU 202 of the information storage apparatus 101 generates an event “permission” that occurs when the permission button C2 included in the usage permission screen C is touch-designated after the pop-up display processing of the usage permission screen C shown in step S112. If it determines (Y of step S113), registration of the permitted captured image will be performed (step S114). That is, the binary data that is the image data itself of the captured image of the camera 107 or the like captured in step S103 and temporarily stored in the RAM 205 is transmitted to the host computer 11 together with the image ID temporarily stored in the RAM 205 in step S104. At this time, as data transmitted from the information storage device 101 to the host computer 11, binary data and image ID data are stored and registered in the meta image storage area 25 shown in FIG. 13 provided in the HDD 15 of the host computer 11. Accompany the signal to be. Alternatively, binary data that is the existing image data itself selected by the touch designation of the image selection button B6 is stored and registered in the meta image storage area 25 shown in FIG. 13 together with the image ID temporarily stored in the RAM 205 in step S104. A command to that effect is transmitted to the host computer 11. At this time, the image data of the captured image of the camera 107 or the like and the path name accompanying the existing image data are also associated with the image ID and binary data, and the meta image storage area 25 provided in the HDD 15 of the host computer 11 A command to that effect is transmitted to the host computer 11 so as to be stored and registered. Then, a new ID code is set in the coordinate ID of the coordinate information area 26 shown in FIG. 14 provided in the HDD 15 of the host computer 11, and the image ID is associated with this and temporarily stored in the RAM 205 in step S110. A command to that effect is transmitted to the host computer 11 so as to save and register the product ID, the clerk ID temporarily stored in the RAM 205 in step S109, and the usage range set in step S101. At this time, in the coordinate information area 26, the host computer 11 is stored and registered so as to store and register the item information including the product name searched from the product ID and the store clerk information searched from the store clerk ID and the store name. Send a command to that effect.

  On the other hand, the CPU 202 of the information storage device 101 is referred to as “permission rejection” that occurs when the permission rejection button C3 included in the usage permission screen C is touch-designated after the pop-up display processing of the usage permission screen C shown in step S112. If it is determined that an event has occurred (N in step S113), the data on the coordinate editing screen B temporarily stored in the RAM 205 is cleared (step S117), and the process returns to the display processing on the coordinate editing screen B in step S102.

  The return to the display processing of the coordinate editing screen B in step S102 is other events other than the designation of touching the RFID reading and storing button B9 in the determination processing of the presence / absence of event input and the event type in step S107 described above. The generation is also determined (others in step S107), and it is also executed when it is determined that the clear button B10 is touched (Y in step S115).

  Further, in the determination processing of the presence / absence of event input and the event type in step S107 described above, occurrence of other events other than the touch designation of the RFID read / save button B9 is determined (others in step S107), and this is the clear button B10 If it is determined that the touch designation is not (NO in step S115), processing corresponding to the generated event is performed (step S116).

  Here, if the CPU 202 of the information storage device 101 determines in step S111 that the subject has been permitted to use the image displayed in the image display area B1 (Y in step S111), the usage permission screen C is used. The captured image registration process of step S114 is immediately executed (step S114) without going through the use permission intention display confirmation process (steps S112 to 113). This is a process executed under the gist that once a use permission for a captured image is obtained from a salesclerk who is a subject, the subsequent use permission may be omitted. By executing such use permission omission processing, smooth coordination information registration processing can be performed.

  In the present embodiment, the touch of the permission button C2 on the usage permission screen C is used as a mechanism for allowing the subject to display the intention of permission to use the image displayed in the image display area B1. A system called designation is adopted. On the other hand, as another embodiment, a handwritten tablet (not shown) is connected to the serial port 209, and use permission or rejection thereof is executed by taking a handwritten input image into the handwritten tablet. Also good. In this case, it is possible to store handwriting data of a salesclerk as a subject in the salesclerk master area 22 and determine whether or not the handwriting written on the handwritten tablet is the handwriting of the person himself / herself. As yet another embodiment, a biometric authentication data of a store clerk that is a subject that can be acquired by the sensor in the store clerk master area 22 with a biometric information acquisition sensor (not shown) connected to the serial port 209. May be registered and the use permission or rejection may be executed when the biometric information input by the biometric information acquisition sensor matches the biometric information registered in the store clerk master area 22.

5. Coordinate Information Browsing Phase The coordinate information browsing phase is executed at each store S where the information display device 121 is installed. This phase is a phase in which a customer browses a coordinated image obtained by coordinating clothing sold in the store S on the information display device 121 together with other information at the store S where the customer has visited. Hereinafter, the coordinate information browsing phase will be described with reference to FIGS.

  FIG. 26 is a flowchart showing the flow of the coordinate information browsing process executed by the information display device 121. The computer program installed in the program area PA of the HDD 228 is stored and registered in the meta image storage area 25 (see FIG. 13) and the coordinate information area 26 (see FIG. 14) provided in the HDD 15 of the host computer 11. Coordinate information browsing processing program for browsing coordinate information is included. The coordinate information browsing processing program is copied to the RAM 225 and used when the program is activated. The processing of the flowchart shown in FIG. 26 shows the processing contents executed by the CPU 222 in accordance with the program for coordinate information registration processing copied to the RAM 225 in this way.

  When a customer who visits the store S desires to view a coordinated image, the information display device 121 needs to log in. In order to log in with the information display device 121, the RFID reader / writer 131 reads a customer code stored in an RFID chip built in a membership card (not shown) possessed by the customer. The microcomputer 221 of the information display device 121 takes in the customer code output from the RFID reader / writer 131 from the serial port 229 via the I / O interface IF, and stores the customer master area 23 (stored in the HDD 15 of the host computer 11 ( The presence of the same customer ID as the customer code retrieved by searching (see FIG. 11) is determined. The microcomputer 221 of the information display device 121 permits login on condition that the same customer ID as the customer code read from the membership card exists in the customer master area 23. The above is the login process (step S201).

  However, not only the customer but also the store clerk needs the login with the information display device 121 when browsing the coordinated image is desired. That is, in order for the clerk to log in using the information display device 121, the clerk code stored in the RFID chip built in the ID card (not shown) possessed by the clerk is read by the RFID reader / writer 131. The microcomputer 221 of the information display device 121 takes in the clerk code output from the RFID reader / writer 131 from the serial port 229 via the I / O interface IF, and stores and saves it in the HDD 15 of the host computer 11. The presence / absence of the same clerk ID as the clerk code retrieved by searching (see FIG. 10) is determined. The microcomputer 221 of the information display device 121 permits login on the condition that the clerk ID identical to the clerk code read from the ID card possessed by the clerk exists in the clerk master area 22. The above is the login process by the store clerk (step S201).

  The microcomputer 221 of the information display device 121 executes login processing in step S201, and then displays and outputs the coordinate list screen D on the liquid crystal display 122 (step S202).

  FIG. 27 is a schematic diagram illustrating an example of the coordinate list screen D displayed on the liquid crystal display 122 of the information display device 121. The coordinate list screen D is mainly composed of a list display field D1 in which 10 coordinate photos are displayed in a list. The 10 coordinated photos displayed in the list display column D1 can be scrolled. A triangle mark located on the lower right side in the coordinate list screen D is a scroll button D2 for designating the scrolling of coordinated photos. FIG. 27 shows a state in which the top 10 coordinated photos are displayed, so the scroll button D2 shows only one of “sending side”, but the top coordinated photo is scrolled and hidden. Then, a “return side” scroll button (not shown) is also displayed.

  Here, the coordinated photograph displayed in the list display field D1 of the coordinate list screen D is displayed according to the definition recorded in the use range of the coordinate information area 26 shown in FIG. For example, when the coordinate usage range ID specified by the coordinate ID in the coordinate information area 26 is defined as B or C, the usage range is defined as any other store S (see FIG. 12), the coordinate display photo is displayed in the list display column D1 in any of the stores S. On the other hand, when the use range ID of the coordinate specified by the coordinate ID is defined as A, the use range is defined as use in the own store (see FIG. 12), so a list display field In D1, a coordinated photo is displayed only at the store's own store S associated with the coordinate ID.

  On the coordination list screen D, a product tag selection button D3 displaying “Search by product tag” and a category selection button D4 displaying “Search by category” are displayed. In addition, on the coordination list screen D, a return button D5 and a logout button D6 are also displayed.

  Here, the coordinate list screen D functions as a front screen for searching for a coordinate screen G (see FIG. 30) for displaying a specific coordinate image. In order to search for a desired coordinate image from the coordinate list screen D, the information display device 121 provides three search methods. Hereinafter, the three ways of searching will be described with reference to the flowchart of FIG.

  The first search method is selection by touch designation of the coordinated photo displayed in the list display field D1. The CPU 222 of the information display device 121 is on standby for determining whether or not an image has been selected as processing subsequent to step S202 (step S203). In this case, the image is selected by touch designation on the touch panel 125 of the coordinated photos displayed in a list in the list display field D1.

  The second search method is a search based on the wireless tag RT that is started by touch-designating the product tag selection button D3. The CPU 222 of the information display device 121 displays the tag information standby screen E on the liquid crystal display 122 when the product tag selection button D3 is touch-designated without selecting an image (N in step S203) (Y in step S204). It is displayed (step S207).

  FIG. 28 is a schematic diagram illustrating an example of a tag information standby screen E displayed on the liquid crystal display 122 of the information display device 121. On the tag information standby screen E, a message E1 “Please hold the product tag!” Is displayed, and a product name display field E2 for displaying the product name is displayed. In the tag information standby screen E, there is an all display button E3 displaying “display all” for instructing display of the coordinate list screen D shown in FIG. 27, and a third search method described later. A category selection button E4 displaying “search by category” for instructing a certain category search is displayed. On the tag information standby screen E, a return button E5 and a logout button E6 are further displayed.

  Returning to the description of the flowchart shown in FIG. After displaying the tag information standby screen E (step S207), the CPU 222 of the information display device 121 waits for tag information reception determination (step S208). That is, the clothing tag that is the product AL is attached with a product tag containing an RFID chip that stores a product code that identifies the product AL. Therefore, when the RFID reader / writer 131 reads and outputs a product code from the product tag, the CPU 222 determines reception of tag information (Y in step S208). Subsequently, the CPU 222 of the information display device 121 accesses the host computer 11 and searches the coordinate information area 26 shown in FIG. 14 for the same product ID as the received product code (step S209), and the product-specific coordinate list screen F (See FIG. 29) is displayed and output on the liquid crystal display 122 (step S210). That is, all the coordinate IDs in which the product IDs retrieved from the coordinate information area 26 in step S209 are recorded are retrieved from the coordinate information area 26 shown in FIG. 14, and the product-specific coordinate list specified by these coordinate IDs. Screen F (see FIG. 29) is displayed.

  FIG. 29 is a schematic diagram illustrating an example of the product-specific coordinate list screen F displayed on the liquid crystal display 122 of the information display device 121. On the basis of the tag information standby screen E, the product-specific coordination list screen F displays the product name searched from the product master area 21 shown in FIG. 9 based on the product code received and determined in step S208 in the product name display field E2. Has been. In the example shown in FIG. 29, it is understood that the product AL “black jeans” is selected from the product name displayed in the product name display field E2. Further, in place of the message E1 on the tag information standby screen E, a product-specific coordinate list image F1 is displayed. Further, a product tag selection button F2 displayed as “Search by product tag” is displayed. Since the other parts are the same as the display of the tag information standby screen E, the same parts as the tag information standby screen E in the product-specific coordinate list screen F of FIG.

  Here, the coordinated photo displayed as the product-specific coordinate list image F1 on the product-specific coordinate list screen F is displayed according to the definition recorded in the use range of the coordinate information area 26 shown in FIG. For example, when the coordinate usage range ID specified by the coordinate ID in the coordinate information area 26 is defined as B or C, the usage range is defined as any other store S (see FIG. 12), the coordinated photo is displayed as the coordinated list image F1 for each product at any store S. On the other hand, when the use range ID of the coordinate specified by the coordinate ID is defined as A, the use range is defined as use in the own store (see FIG. 12). A coordinated photo is displayed as the product-specific coordinated list image F1 only at the store C of the linked store clerk.

  Returning to the description of the flowchart shown in FIG. The CPU 222 of the information display device 121 waits for the coordinate selection selection determination (step S211) after displaying the product-specific coordinate list screen F (step S210). Coordination is selected by touch designation of the coordinated photo displayed on the product-specific coordinate list screen F by the touch panel 125.

  The third search method is a search based on the category of clothing that is the product AL that is started by touch-designating the category selection button D4. If the CPU 222 of the information display device 121 does not determine image selection (N in step S203) and does not determine designation of a product tag search (N in step S204), it determines designation of category search (step S205). Y), category selection processing is executed (step S212). The category selection process is started by touch designation of the category selection button D4 in the coordinate list screen D or the category selection button E4 in the tag information standby screen E or the product-specific coordinate list screen F. In this process, the CPU 222 of the information display device 121 accesses the host computer 11 to display coordinate list images (not shown) for each category according to the categories defined in the product master area 21 shown in FIG. This is a process of selecting a specific coordinated image from coordinated photos in the list image by, for example, touch designation on the touch panel 125. The detailed description of the category selection process is omitted.

  Here, in the first search method, a specific coordinate is selected by touch designation of a coordinated photo displayed in the list display field D1 on the coordinate list screen D shown in FIG. In this case, the coordinated photos displayed in the list display field D1 shown in FIG. 27 are based on the binary data in the meta image storage area 25 shown in FIG. 13 provided in the HDD 15 of the host computer 11. Therefore, the CPU 222 of the information display device 121 can acquire the image ID associated with the binary data by accessing the host computer 11 and referring to the meta image storage area 25 (see FIG. 13). . If the image ID is known, the coordinate ID can also be known by referring to the coordinate information area 26 (see FIG. 14) provided in the HDD 15 of the host computer 11. Thus, the CPU 222 of the information display device 121 can recognize the coordinate ID associated with the specific coordinate photo displayed in the list display field D1 shown in FIG.

  In the second search method, in the product-specific coordinate list screen F shown in FIG. 29, a specific coordinate is selected by touch designation of a coordinated photo displayed on the product-specific coordinate list screen F. In this case, the coordinated photos displayed in the product coordinate list image F1 shown in FIG. 29 are based on the binary data in the meta image storage area 25 shown in FIG. 13 provided in the HDD 15 of the host computer 11. Therefore, the CPU 222 of the information display device 121 can acquire the image ID associated with the binary data by accessing the host computer 11 and referring to the meta image storage area 25 (see FIG. 13). . If the image ID is known, the coordinate ID can also be known by referring to the coordinate information area 26 (see FIG. 14) provided in the HDD 15 of the host computer 11. In this way, when a specific coordinate photo displayed in the product-specific coordinate list image F1 shown in FIG. 29 is touch-designated, the CPU 222 of the information display device 121 recognizes the coordinate ID associated therewith. it can.

  In the third search method, a specific coordinate is selected by touch designation of a coordinated photograph in a category-specific coordinate list image (not shown) displayed on the liquid crystal display 122 by the process of step S212 in the flowchart of FIG. A selection is made. Even in this case, as in the first search method and the second search method, the CPU 222 of the information display device 121 displays a specific coordinate photo from a category-specific coordinate list image (not shown). When the touch is designated, the coordinate ID associated with the touch can be recognized.

  Returning to the description of the flowchart shown in FIG. Regardless of which search method is adopted, the CPU 222 of the information display device 121 can recognize the coordinate ID when a specific coordinate is selected. Therefore, the CPU 222 acquires a related product ID based on the recognized coordinate ID (step S213). The related product ID referred to here is a product ID that identifies the product AL that is the clothing included in the selected coordinated image. In order to obtain the product ID from the coordinate ID, the coordinate information area 26 (see FIG. 14) provided in the HDD 15 of the host computer 11 may be accessed.

  Thereafter, the CPU 222 of the information display device 121 determines whether or not a discount rule is applied to the selected coordinate (step S214). In this determination process, the CPU 222 accesses the product master area 21 (see FIG. 9) provided in the HDD 15 of the host computer 11 and acquires category information, price information, and cost information about the product ID acquired in step S213. To do. Then, the CPU 222 accesses the discount rule area 27 (see FIG. 15), and accesses the merchandise master area 21 (see FIG. 9) to determine whether there is a corresponding discount rule in light of the category information, price information, and cost information. Determine whether or not.

  When the CPU 222 of the information display device 121 determines that the discount rule is applied as a result of the determination in step S214 (Y in step S214), the CPU 222 includes a coordinate image corresponding to the coordinate ID recognized by selecting a specific coordinate. The coordinate screen G is displayed on the liquid crystal display 122 (step S215). When the CPU 222 of the information display device 121 determines that the discount rule is not applied as a result of the determination in step S214 (N in step S214), the CPU 222 includes a coordinate image corresponding to the coordinate ID recognized when a specific coordinate is selected. The coordinate screen G is displayed on the liquid crystal display 122 (step S216).

  When displaying such a coordinate screen G, in addition to the coordinate image, the CPU 222 uses detailed information corresponding to the coordinate ID acquired from the coordinate information area 26 (see FIG. 14) and the product master area 21 (see FIG. 9). All the detailed information (product name and price) corresponding to the acquired related product ID and the total amount calculated based on the price corresponding to the product ID are linked together and temporarily stored in the RAM 225, and these are coordinated screens. Display on G. This display is common even when it is determined that the discount rule is applied as a result of the determination in step S214 (Y in step S214) or in the case where it is determined that the discount rule is not applied (N in step S214). It has sex.

  On the other hand, the CPU 222 of the information display device 121 displays the specific information on the coordinate screen G only when it is determined that the discount rule is applied as a result of the determination in step S214 (Y in step S214). This unique information is the total amount after discount. That is, the CPU 222 acquires the applicable discount rule information determined in step S214 from the discount rule area 27 (see FIG. 15) and temporarily stores it in the RAM 225. The CPU 222 calculates the total amount after the discount based on the discount content included in the temporarily stored discount rule information. Then, the CPU 222 displays the calculated total price after discount together with the total price before discounting on the coordinate screen G displayed in step S215 when it is determined that the discount rule is applied in step S214.

  FIG. 30 shows an example of the coordinate screen G displayed on the liquid crystal display 122 of the information display device 121. (a) is a schematic diagram when the discount rule is not applied, and (b) is a schematic diagram when the discount rule is applied. FIG. In the coordinate screen G, display areas such as a coordinate image display area G1, a clerk information display area G2, a comment display area G3, a merchandise information display area G4, and a total amount display area G5 are secured. In these display areas, information searched from the coordinate information area 26 shown in FIG. 14 and the product master area 21 shown in FIG. 9 and information calculated based on such information are displayed.

  That is, the coordinate image display area G1 displays an image based on binary data retrieved from the meta image storage area 25 shown in FIG. 13 based on the image ID of the coordinate information area 26.

  In the clerk information display area G2, the clerk name and the store name (text data) recorded in the clerk information in the coordinate information area 26 are displayed.

  In the comment display area G3, text information recorded in the comments in the coordinate information area 26 is displayed.

  In the product information display area G4, the product name (text data) recorded in the item information in the coordinate information area 26 (see FIG. 14) and the price of the product master area 21 (see FIG. 9) are displayed.

  In the total price display area G5, the total price calculated based on the price of the product master area 21 (see FIG. 9) is displayed. In the total amount display area G5, when the discount rule is applied (Y in step S214 in the flowchart of FIG. 26), the total amount after discount is also displayed (see FIG. 30B).

  On the coordinate screen G, in addition to the areas G1 to G5, a return button G6 and a logout button G7 are also displayed. In addition, when the discount rule is applied (Y in step S214 in the flowchart of FIG. 26), a coupon issue button G8 is also displayed.

  Here, the coordinated photograph displayed in the coordinated image display area G1 of the coordinated screen G is displayed according to the definition recorded in the usage range of the coordinated information area 26 shown in FIG. For example, when the coordinate usage range ID specified by the coordinate ID in the coordinate information area 26 is defined as B or C, the usage range is defined as any other store S (see FIG. 12), in the coordinated image display area G1, a coordinated photo is displayed at any of the stores S. On the other hand, when the use range ID of the coordinate specified by the coordinate ID is defined as A, the use range is defined as use in the own store (see FIG. 12), so the coordinate image display In the area G1, a coordinated photo is displayed only at the store C of the store clerk associated with the coordinate ID.

  In addition, the product name (text data) displayed in the product information display area G4 of the coordinate screen G is individually displayed as an object that can be touch-designated by the touch panel 125. That is, in the example shown in FIG. 30, a product AL having a product name “Metallic shorts”, a product AL having a product name “Muffler”, and a product AL having a product name “Wanpipe” are displayed. These product name displays are objects that can be touch-designated individually by the touch panel 125. Therefore, “metallic short pants”, “mufflers”, and “one-piece” can be selected and specified independently.

  Returning to the description of the flowchart shown in FIG. The CPU 222 of the information display device 121 is a routine different from the processing shown in the flowchart of FIG. 26, and executes the event monitoring routine by multitask processing. In this event monitoring routine, the return button D5 or logout button D6 in the coordinate list screen D shown in FIG. 27, the tag information standby screen E shown in FIG. 28, and the return button E5 in the product-specific coordinate list screen F shown in FIG. The logout button E6 and the event of touch designation by the touch panel 125 of the return button G6 or the logout button G7 in the coordinate screen G shown in FIG. 30 are monitored. Therefore, the process of the flowchart shown in FIG. 26 is ended by touch designation of the logout buttons D6, E6, and G7.

  Moreover, CPU222 of the information display apparatus 121 is monitoring the event of the presence or absence of the touch designation | designated by the touchscreen 125 of coupon issue button G8 on the coordinate screen G shown in FIG.30 (b). When the CPU 222 determines that the coupon issue button G8 is touched by the touch panel 125, the CPU 222 drives and controls the printer 132 to print and issue the coupon C. The CPU 222 of the information display device 121 displays information on the product AL displayed in the product information display area G4 in the coordinate screen G, the total price displayed in the total price display area G5, and the total price after discount on the coupon C. Difference information, in other words, information on the discount amount. As a result, if the coupon C is brought to the store clerk at the time of the transaction, the discount amount can be discounted.

  As described above, in the coordinate information browsing phase, when the discount rule is applied to the total amount display area G5 in the coordinate screen G (Y in step S214 in the flowchart of FIG. 26), the total amount after discount is also displayed. Also displayed. This allows customers to view the coordination screen G that includes the discounted total amount, which is discount information, so that the appeal of products from the aesthetic side through coordination is added to the purchase motivation from the economic side through discounts. Can be made. As a result, sales can be promoted.

6). Settlement Phase The settlement phase is executed at each store S where the information display device 121 is installed. This phase is a phase executed by the POS terminal 141 in response to bringing the product AL purchased by the customer to the accounting office where the POS terminal 141 is installed. Hereinafter, the settlement phase will be described with reference to FIG.

  FIG. 31 is a flowchart showing the flow of settlement processing executed at the POS terminal 141. In the registration mode, the CPU 242 of the POS terminal 141 displays a product registration job on the store clerk display 144 and the customer display 149 (step S301). In this state, the POS terminal 141 permits reading and registration of product IDs for all products AL that the customer intends to purchase (step S302). For example, the product ID is read by reading the product ID (product code) recorded on the wireless tag RT attached to the product AL by the RFID reader / writer 151. After the merchandise ID reading and registration process (step S302), the POS terminal 141 executes a settlement process accompanied by the receipt R print issuance by the receipt printer 148 when the closing key is pressed in the keyboard 143 (step S303). (Step S307).

  The POS terminal 141 performs a discount presence / absence determination process (step S304) and a subsequent discount process (step S305) prior to the settlement process in step S307 from the determination of pressing the lock key in step S303. That is, the CPU 242 of the POS terminal 141 accesses the product master area 21 (see FIG. 9) provided in the HDD 15 of the host computer 11, and stores the category information, price information, and cost information about the product ID registered in step S302. Obtained and temporarily stored in the RAM 245. Then, the CPU 242 accesses the discount rule area 27 (see FIG. 15) provided in the HDD 15 of the host computer 11, accesses and acquires the product master area 21 (see FIG. 9), and temporarily stores it in the RAM 245. It is determined whether there is a corresponding discount rule in light of the category information, price information, and cost information.

  When the CPU 242 of the POS terminal 141 determines that the discount rule is applied as a result of the determination in step S304 (Y in step S304), the applicable discount rule data defined in the discount rule area 27 (see FIG. 15) is displayed. Temporarily stored in the RAM 245. Then, a discount amount calculation process corresponding to the discount content in the temporarily stored discount rule data is executed, and the discount amount calculated by subtracting the discount amount calculated in this way from the total sales amount is obtained. The information is displayed on the customer display 149 (step S305).

  On the other hand, if the CPU 242 of the POS terminal 141 determines that the discount rule is not applied as a result of the determination in step S304 (N in step S304), the total sales amount is displayed on the salesclerk display 144 and the customer display 149. (Step S306).

  The CPU 242 of the POS terminal 141 executes the settlement process through the process of step S305 or step S306 (step S307).

  Therefore, according to the POS terminal 141 of the present embodiment, discount processing can be performed when a product satisfying the discount condition is purchased, so that sales promotion by discount can be achieved without sacrificing free coordination. The effect of the information storage device 101 that can support the realization of coordinated sales can be reinforced in the scene of settlement.
