  By the way, when a coin change machine as described above is installed in a store with an ATM, such as a convenience store, is the money collected from the money change machine charged to the ATM in the store? Or, it is transported to a bank by a store clerk or the like and deposited into an ATM in the bank or brought into a bank window. Here, in many cases, coins cannot be deposited into ATMs installed in stores. For this reason, when depositing money collected from a money change machine into an ATM in the store, only banknotes are deposited into the ATM, and coins are re-introduced into the money change machine. For this reason, there is a possibility that useless work may occur or coins may be lost.

  On the other hand, in the money handling machine disclosed in Patent Document 2, only banknotes can be withdrawn at the time of settlement. In such a money handling machine, when performing an amount-remaining collection process such that a predetermined amount of money is left in the machine body and other money is collected, all coins are left in the machine body. About the value obtained by subtracting the current coin balance from the initial coin balance, this value is calculated by rounding down, rounding up, or rounding to the nearest unit of 1,000 yen. The collection amount of the banknote is calculated by rounding and subtracting the rounded result from the current banknote amount in the storage unit. However, in such a method, after the banknotes are withdrawn, there is a possibility that the total amount of the banknotes and coins left in the machine body becomes smaller than the initial balance. This causes an unfavorable situation particularly in franchise convenience stores. Usually, each store transfers the sales amount within the period to the headquarters account, but it is impossible to transfer the amount exceeding the sales amount in this way. Also, since the amount rounded at the time of collection is not managed, cash management may become inaccurate in the long run.

  The present invention has been made in consideration of such points, and the total balance of banknotes and coins in the storage unit of the money handling machine is smaller than the stored remaining amount and the minimum unit amount of banknotes. Since only the banknotes are withdrawn from the money handling machine so as to be the total size of the amount, only the banknotes are withdrawn from the money handling machine when collecting banknotes and coins as sales. Moreover, since the difference obtained by subtracting the stored remaining amount from the total balance of the bills and coins actually left in the money handling machine can always be positive, the bills to be collected It is an object of the present invention to provide a money handling machine, a money handling system, and a money handling method that can prevent the amount of money from becoming excessive.

And a control unit that controls the withdrawal unit so as to dispense only banknotes.

  According to such a money handling machine, when the control unit performs the first sales proceeds collection process, the total balance of the banknotes and coins in the storage unit is determined based on the remaining amount stored in the storage unit, The withdrawal unit is controlled so that only the banknotes are withdrawn so as to be the total size with the fractional amount smaller than the minimum unit amount. In such a first sales collection process, when collecting banknotes and coins as sales, only the banknotes can be withdrawn, so that it is not possible to deposit coins in ATMs installed in stores. Even in such a case, the collected money (banknote) can be deposited into the ATM. Further, in the first sales collection process, the total amount of coins and bills left in the body of the money handling machine is always larger than the remaining amount set and stored in advance. For this reason, it can prevent that the amount of money of the bill collected will become excessive.

Then, the paper is delivered to the banknote payout unit 216 by the circulation conveyance unit 203a. And the banknote discharge part 216 discharges | emits the banknote sent from the banknote accommodating part 206 out of the housing | casing 210 from the banknote outlet 216a. In this way, the operator can obtain the banknotes withdrawn from the banknote change machine 200. Of the banknotes fed out from the banknote storage unit 206, banknotes that cannot be identified by the banknote identification unit 201 by skewing or the like are stored in the withdrawal reject unit 204 as withdrawal withdrawal banknotes.

Next, in the money handling system 1 according to the present embodiment, after the store is closed or at the time of a settlement process performed at a predetermined timing during the business, a bill or a banknote as sales proceeds from the coin change machine 100 or the banknote change machine 200 The operation | movement at the time of collect | recovering a coin is demonstrated. When collecting banknotes or coins as sales from the coin change machine 100 or the banknote change machine 200, one process is selected and executed from the following five sales collection patterns. It has become.
(A) All collection processing for collecting all coins and banknotes stored in the coin change machine 100 and banknote change machine 200 (b) Coins stored in the coin change machine 100 and banknote change machine 200 A remaining amount collection process for collecting coins and banknotes of a predetermined amount among banknotes and collecting other coins and banknotes (c) Coins and banknotes stored in the body of the coin change machine 100 or the banknote change machine 200 The number of coins and banknotes for each denomination are left in the machine body and the remaining coins and banknotes are collected. (D) Only the banknotes stored in the machine body of the banknote change machine 200 are collected. First sales collection process (details of the process will be described later)
(E) Second sales collection process for collecting coins stored in the coin change machine 100 and banknotes stored in the bill change machine 200 (details of specific processing will be described later)

  More specifically, when collecting banknotes and coins as sales from the coin change machine 100 or the banknote change machine 200 during the checkout process, the operator collects the sales proceeds using the operation unit 304 of the POS register 300. Instruct to do. At this time, the operator uses the operation unit 304 of the POS register 300 to select which one of the five sales collection processing patterns (a) to (e) is to be performed. Further, instead of operating the operation unit 304 of the POS register 300, the operator operates the operation display unit 112 of the coin change machine 100 to instruct to collect the sales proceeds, and the above (a) to ( It may be possible to select which processing is to be performed among the five sales collection processing patterns of e). Furthermore, the sales collection process pattern may be selected and set in advance at the time of system introduction or operation change, and the selection operation may not be performed every time the settlement process is performed. With this method, the operation during the checkout process can be simplified and selection errors can be prevented.

  In the amount remaining collection process and the number remaining collection process, the total amount of banknotes and coins to be left in the coin change machine 100 and the banknote change machine 200 and the number of each denomination are determined before the store starts business. The banknotes and coins are collected so as to coincide with the initial banknotes and the number of coins stored in the body of the banknote change machine 200 and the number of denominations.

  On the other hand, when the first sales collection process or the second sales collection process is performed, the remaining amount is set in advance in the control unit 130, the control unit 230, or the control unit 330. Here, the remaining amount is preferably left in the coin change machine 100 or the bill change machine 200 after the first sales collection process and the second sales collection process are performed. This refers to the banknotes and coins. In setting the remaining amount, for example, banknotes and coins corresponding to the sales proceeds of the store are calculated from the total balance of banknotes and coins stored in the body of the coin change machine 100 or the banknote change machine 200 during the settlement process. By subtracting the total amount of money, a rough number of the remaining amount is calculated. As a result, when the first sales proceeds collection process and the second sales proceeds collection process are performed, coins and banknotes can be collected for an amount almost equal to the amount of sales proceeds in the store. Such remaining amount is input by the operator through the operation display unit 112 of the coin change machine 100 or the operation unit 304 of the POS register 300, or information on the remaining amount from the store server 400 is controlled by the control unit 130, the control unit 230, Alternatively, it is set in the control unit 130, the control unit 230, or the control unit 330 by being transmitted to the control unit 330. In addition, the remaining amount set in the control unit 130, the control unit 230, or the control unit 330 is stored in the storage unit 134, the storage unit 234, or the storage unit 334.

  And when performing the 1st sales collection process, the total amount of the coin in the coin storage part 106 of the coin change machine 100 and the banknote in the banknote storage part 206 of the banknote change machine 200 is the memory | storage part 134, the memory | storage part 234, Or only a banknote is withdrawn from the banknote change machine 200 so that it may become the total magnitude | size of the remaining money amount memorize | stored in the memory | storage part 334, and the fractional money amount smaller than the minimum unit money amount of a banknote.

  The first sales collection process will be specifically described with reference to FIG. As shown in FIG. 5 (a), at the time of the settlement process, 70 bills of 10,000 yen bills, 20 pieces of 5000 yen bills and 80 thousand yen bills are respectively stored in the bill change machine 200. The amount of banknotes in the bill change machine 200 is 880,000 yen, and the coin change machine 100 has 22 500-yen coins, 77 100-yen coins, and 12 50-yen coins. Sheets, 10 yen coins are 93 sheets, 5 yen coins are 31 sheets, 1 yen coins are each 115 sheets, and the amount of coins in the body of the coin change machine 100 is 20,500 yen, When, for example, 100,000 yen is set as the remaining amount in the control unit 130, the control unit 230, or the control unit 330, the remaining amount is stored in the storage unit 134, the storage unit 234, or the storage unit 334.

  The total amount of the coins in the coin storage unit 106 of the coin change machine 100 and the banknotes in the banknote storage unit 206 of the banknote change machine 200 is the remaining amount stored in the storage unit 134, the storage unit 234, or the storage unit 334. Only the banknotes are withdrawn and collected from the banknote change machine 200 so as to have a total size of a certain 100,000 yen and a fractional amount smaller than the minimum unit amount of money (thousand yen). At this time, the banknote change machine 200 is withdrawn with priority in the order of 10,000 yen bill, 5,000 yen bill, and thousand yen bill. This is because even if 10,000 yen bills are left in the banknote change machine 200, it is usually impossible to withdraw such 10,000 yen bills as change. On the other hand, since the thousand yen bill is often withdrawn as change during the next business period, the thousand yen bill is left in the banknote change machine 200 as much as possible in the current sales collection process. In this manner, the banknote is dispensed from the banknote change machine 200 so that the 10,000 yen bill is not left in the banknote change machine 200 as much as possible, while the thousand yen bill is left in the banknote change machine 200 as much as possible. About the example as shown to Fig.5 (a), the number and the total amount of money for every money type of the banknote withdrawn and collect | recovered from the banknote change machine 200 are shown in FIG. On the other hand, coins are not withdrawn from the coin change machine 100 in the first sales collection process. Further, after the withdrawal process, the collection data process is stored in the storage unit 134, the storage unit 234, or the storage unit 334, and the collection statement is printed by a printer or the like (not shown) provided in the POS register 300. More specifically, the collection date and time, the person-in-charge code, the contents of withdrawal (for example, the number and amount of withdrawals for each denomination), the amount of money after collection, etc. are printed.

  FIG. 5C shows the number and amount of bills and coins in the bill change machine 200 and coin change machine 100 after the first sales collection process is performed. As shown in FIG. 5 (c), six 5000 yen bills and 50 thousand yen bills are left in the body of the bill change machine 200, respectively. On the other hand, since coins are not withdrawn from the coin change machine 100 in the first sales collection process, the first sales collection process for each denomination is performed in the body of the coin change machine 100. The same number of coins as before will be left behind. The total amount of coins in the coin change machine 100 and bills in the bill change machine 200 is 100,500 yen. The actual remaining amount (100,500 yen) is slightly larger than the preset remaining amount (100,000 yen). However, if even the difference is managed reliably, there is a problem in actual operation. There is no.

  Thus, in the first sales collection process, the total amount of coins (100,500 yen) in the coin storage unit 106 of the coin change machine 100 and the banknote storage unit 206 of the banknote change machine 200 is stored in the storage unit. 134 or the storage unit 234 or the remaining amount of money stored in the storage unit 334, and the total amount of the fractional amount (500 yen) smaller than the minimum unit amount of money (thousand yen). In addition, only banknotes are withdrawn from the banknote change machine 200 and collected. The fractional amount after the first sales proceeds collection process is stored in the storage unit 134, the storage unit 234, or the storage unit 334. The fractional amount after the first sales collection process is performed may be stored in the same storage unit as the storage unit for storing the remaining amount, or the storage unit for storing the remaining amount. May be stored in a different storage unit. Further, a fractional amount storage unit for storing the fractional amount after the first sales proceeds collection processing may be provided separately from the storage units 134, 234, and 334 described above.

  In addition, when such a first sales proceeds collection process is performed a plurality of times, the cumulative value of the fractional amount in each first sales proceeds collection process is equal to or greater than the minimum unit amount (thousand yen) of the banknote. When the banknote is withdrawn from the banknote change machine 200, the banknote for the minimum unit amount is additionally withdrawn. More specifically, when the fractional amount is 500 yen, for example, in the first sales collection process performed after the end of business on a certain day, the coins for this fractional amount are carried over to the next day. As a result, when the first sales collection process is performed again after the next day's business is completed, the carried-over coins for the fractional amount are also stored in the body of the coin change machine 100. It becomes. Even in the second first sales collection process, a fractional amount is newly generated depending on the value of the remaining amount, but the cumulative value of the fractional amount in each first sales collection process is the minimum of the bill. When the unit amount is 1,000 yen or more, specifically, when a second amount of 500 yen or more is newly generated in the second first sales collection process, the bill change machine 200 issues a bill. When you withdraw money, you can withdraw 1,000 yen worth of banknotes.

  Such a first sales collection process is often used when an ATM 12 is installed in the store 10a as shown in the store 10a of FIG. That is, as described above, there are many cases where coins cannot be deposited in the ATM 12 installed in the store 10a, but only banknotes are collected in the first sales collection process. Therefore, it becomes possible to deposit the collected banknotes directly into the ATM 12 in the store 10a.

  Next, the second sales collection process will be described. When performing the second sales collection process, the total amount of coins in the coin storage unit 106 of the coin change machine 100 and the banknotes in the banknote storage unit 206 of the banknote change machine 200 is stored in the storage unit 134 or the storage unit 234 or stored. Coins and banknotes are dispensed from the coin change machine 100 and the banknote change machine 200 so as to be the same amount as the remaining amount stored in the section 334.

  The second sales collection process will be specifically described with reference to FIG. As shown in FIG. 6A, at the time of the settlement process, 70 bills of 10,000 yen bills, 20 pieces of 5000 yen bills, and 80 thousand yen bills are stored in the bill change machine 200, respectively. The amount of banknotes in the bill change machine 200 is 880,000 yen, and the coin change machine 100 has 22 500-yen coins, 77 100-yen coins, and 12 50-yen coins. Sheets, 10 yen coins are 93 sheets, 5 yen coins are 31 sheets, 1 yen coins are each 115 sheets, and the amount of coins in the body of the coin change machine 100 is 20,500 yen, When, for example, 100,000 yen is set as the remaining amount in the control unit 130, the control unit 230, or the control unit 330, the remaining amount is stored in the storage unit 134, the storage unit 234, or the storage unit 334.

  The total amount of the coins in the coin storage unit 106 of the coin change machine 100 and the banknotes in the banknote storage unit 206 of the banknote change machine 200 is the remaining amount stored in the storage unit 134, the storage unit 234, or the storage unit 334. Coins and banknotes are withdrawn and collected respectively from the coin change machine 100 and the banknote change machine 200 so as to be the same amount as a certain 100,000 yen. At this time, the banknote is dispensed from the banknote change machine 200 so that the 10,000 yen bill is not left in the banknote change machine 200 as much as possible, while the thousand yen bill is left in the banknote change machine 200 as much as possible. Moreover, coins are not left in the coin change machine 100 as much as possible, while coins are transferred from the coin change machine 100 so that 1-yen coins, 10-yen coins, and 100-yen coins are left in the coin change machine 100 as much as possible. Withdrawal. This is because these 1-yen coins, 10-yen coins, and 100-yen coins are often withdrawn as change during the next business period. FIG. 6B shows the number and total amount of coins and banknotes denominated and collected from the coin change machine 100 and the banknote change machine 200 for the example shown in FIG. .

  FIG. 6C shows the number and amount of banknotes and coins in the body of the bill change machine 200 and the coin change machine 100 after the second sales collection process is performed. As shown in FIG. 6C, six thousand yen bills and fifty thousand yen bills are left in the body of the bill change machine 200. In the coin change machine 100, there are 21 500 yen coins, 77 100 yen coins, 12 50 yen coins, 93 10 yen coins and 5 yen. 31 balls and 115 1-yen coins are left behind. The total amount of the coins in the coin change machine 100 and the banknotes in the bill change machine 200 is 100,000 yen, and the remaining amount stored in the storage unit 134 or the storage unit 234 or the storage unit 334. And the same amount.

  As described above, in the second sales collection process, the total amount (100,000 yen) of coins in the coin storage unit 106 of the coin change machine 100 and banknotes in the banknote storage unit 206 of the banknote change machine 200 is stored in the storage unit. 134, storage unit 234, or coins and banknotes are withdrawn and collected from coin change machine 100 and banknote change machine 200, respectively, so as to be the same amount as the remaining amount of 100,000 yen stored in storage unit 334. The For this reason, the second sales collection process does not generate a fractional amount unlike the first sales collection process.

  The second sales collection process is often used when the ATM 12 is not installed in the store 10b as shown in the store 10b of FIG. The banknotes and coins collected in the second sales collection process are transported to the ATM corner 20 outside the store by a store clerk or the like and deposited into the ATM 22 that can accept coins in the ATM corner 20 or transported to the bank. It is brought into the bank window 24.

  As described above, according to the money change machine of the present embodiment (a combination of the coin change machine 100 and the bill change machine 200) and the money handling system 1 provided with this money change machine, the coin change machine 100 When the control unit 130, the control unit 230 of the banknote change machine 200, or the control unit 330 of the POS register 300 performs the first sales collection process, the total of coins and banknotes in the coin storage unit 106 and the banknote storage unit 206. The balance is the total amount of the remaining amount stored in the storage unit 134, the storage unit 234, or the storage unit 334 and the fractional amount smaller than the minimum unit amount (for example, 1,000 yen) of banknotes. The banknote change machine 200 is controlled so that only banknotes are withdrawn. In such a first sales collection process, since only banknotes can be withdrawn when collecting banknotes or coins as sales, coins cannot be deposited into the ATM 12 installed in the store 10a. Even in such a case, the collected money (banknote) can be deposited into the ATM 12. Further, in the first sales collection process, the total remaining amount of the coins left in the body of the coin storage unit 106 and the banknotes left in the body of the banknote storage unit 206 is set and stored in advance. Always greater than the amount. For this reason, it can prevent that the amount of money of the bill collected will become excessive.

  Further, in the money change machine according to the present embodiment and the money processing system 1 provided with the money change machine, as described above, the fractional amount after the first sales collection process is stored as the remaining amount. To be stored in another storage unit provided separately from the storage unit that stores the remaining amount. As a result, since the remaining amount after the collection of sales proceeds is managed, it is possible to prevent cash management from becoming inaccurate in the long run.

  Further, in the money change machine according to the present embodiment and the money processing system 1 provided with the money change machine, when the first sales collection process is performed a plurality of times, the first sales collection process is performed each time. When the cumulative value of the fractional amount is equal to or greater than the minimum unit amount of the banknote (for example, 1,000 yen), when the banknote is dispensed from the banknote change machine 200, the banknote corresponding to the minimum unit amount is additionally dispensed. It is supposed to make money. As a result, even when the first sales collection process is performed a plurality of times, the fractional amount does not increase unilaterally. If the fractional amount increases to a certain extent, the fractional amount is converted into a bill instead of a coin. You can withdraw money.

  Further, in the money change machine according to the present embodiment and the money handling system 1 provided with the money change machine, the control unit 130 of the coin change machine 100, the control unit 230 of the banknote change machine 200, or the control unit of the POS register 300. 330 is a coin change machine so that the total amount of coins and banknotes in the coin storage unit 106 and the banknote storage unit 206 is the same as the remaining amount stored in the storage unit 134, the storage unit 234, or the storage unit 334. 100 and the banknote change machine 200 can also perform the second sales collection process such that coins and banknotes are withdrawn from the banknote change machine 200, respectively, and the control unit 130 of the coin change machine 100 or the control of the banknote change machine 200. The unit 230 selects one of the first sales collection process and the second sales collection process to select and execute the sales collection process. It has become way.

  In addition, the money change machine by this Embodiment and the money processing system 1 provided with this money change machine are not limited to said aspect, A various change can be added.

  For example, each control part 130,230,330 of the coin change machine 100, the banknote change machine 200, and the POS register 300 in the money handling system 1 performs each operation in the first sales collection process and the second sales collection process. You may come to control each component of the coin change machine 100 and the banknote change machine 200 by sharing. For example, when the first sales collection process is performed, the control unit 230 of the banknote change machine 200 calculates the number and amount of money collected for each denomination of banknotes to be withdrawn from the banknote change machine 200, The control unit 230 may cause the collected banknotes to be dispensed by controlling each component of the banknote change machine 200. In addition, when the first sales proceeds collection process is performed, the control unit 130 of the coin change machine 100 calculates the number and amount of money collected for each denomination of banknotes to be dispensed from the banknote change machine 200. The control unit 130 may instruct the banknote change machine 200 to issue a banknote. In addition, when the first sales collection process is performed, the control unit 330 of the POS register 300 calculates the number of coins to be dispensed from the banknote change machine 200 and the collected money amount, and this control. The unit 330 may instruct the banknote change machine 200 to issue a banknote.

  Further, the money handling system 1 may be provided with a bar drawer. In this case, since the bar metal coins stored in the bar metal drawer are aggregates of coins, when the first sales collection process is performed, the bar metal coins are not withdrawn from the bar metal drawer. Instead, all the bar metal coins are left in the bar drawer as coins.

  Further, as shown in FIG. 1, when a plurality of money change machines (a combination of a coin change machine 100 and a bill change machine 200) is provided in the money handling system 1, sales proceeds from each money change machine. When collecting bills and coins, the third sales collection process as described below may be performed. Hereinafter, the third sales collection process will be described in detail.

  When the third sales proceeds collection process is performed, each control unit 130 in the coin change machine 100, the control unit 230 in the banknote change machine 200, or the control unit 330 in the POS register 300 of each money change machine has each money. The remaining amount of the change machine is set in advance. In addition, the set value of the remaining amount may be common to all machines, or may be set for each money change machine corresponding to the sales floor conditions. In addition, the storage unit 134, the storage unit 234, or the storage unit 334 stores information that can specify the remaining amount of each money change machine.

  When the third sales collection process is performed, the total amount of coins stored in the coin storage unit 106 of the coin change machine 100 of the plurality of money change machines and the banknote storage unit 206 of the banknote change machine 200 is stored. Part 134, storage unit 234, or the total remaining amount of the remaining amount specified from the information stored in storage unit 334, and the total amount of the fractional amount smaller than the minimum unit amount of the banknote, Only banknotes are withdrawn from the banknote change machine 200 of each money change machine.

  The third sales collection process will be specifically described with reference to FIGS. As shown in FIG. 7A, the case where two money change machines (money change machine A and money change machine B) are provided in the money handling system 1 will be illustrated. At the time of the checkout process, 70 sheets of 10,000 yen bills, 20 pieces of 5000 yen bills and 80 thousand yen bills are stored in the bill change machine 200 of the money changer A, respectively. The amount of banknotes in the change machine 200 is 880,000 yen, and there are 22 500 yen coins, 78 100 yen coins, and 50 yen coins in the coin change machine 100 of the money changer A. 12 sheets, 10-yen coins are 93 sheets, 5-yen coins are 31 sheets, and 1-yen coins are 115 sheets, respectively, and the amount of coins in the body of the coin change machine 100 is 20,600 yen. Yes. In addition, 30 pieces of 10,000 yen bills, 10 pieces of 5000 yen bills, and 40 thousand yen bills are respectively stored in the bill change machine 200 of the money change machine B. The amount of banknotes in the body is 390,000 yen, and there are 12 500 yen coins, 36 100 yen coins, 12 50 yen coins, 10 yen in the coin change machine 100 of the coin change machine B. 35 balls, 11 5-yen coins, and 15 1-yen coins are stored, respectively, and the amount of coins in the body of the coin change machine 100 is 10,620 yen. In this case, in the control unit 130 in the coin change machine 100 of each money change machine, the control unit 230 in the banknote change machine 200, or the control unit 330 of the POS register 300, the remaining amount is, for example, 50,000 per money change machine. When the yen is set, there is information that can specify the remaining amount of each money changer (specifically, information that can specify that the remaining amount per money changer is 50,000 yen). The data is stored in the storage unit 134, the storage unit 234, or the storage unit 334.

  In explaining the third sales collection process, first, as a comparative example, the first sales collection process described above is temporarily performed in each of the money changers A and B in the state shown in FIG. Next, how the balances of the money changers A and B change will be described with reference to FIGS.

  When the first sales collection process is performed in each of the money changers A and B, the coins in the coin storage unit 106 of the coin changer 100 and the banknotes of the bill changer 200 are stored in each of the money changers A and B. In order that the total amount of the banknotes in the unit 206 is 50,000 yen which is the remaining amount of each money changer and the total amount of the fractional amount smaller than the minimum unit amount (thousand yen) of the banknotes, Only banknotes are withdrawn and collected from the banknote change machines 200 of the money changers A and B. At this time, 10,000 yen bills are not left in the banknote change machines 200 of the money changers A and B as much as possible, while thousand yen bills are left in the banknote change machines 200 of the money changers A and B as much as possible. As described above, banknotes are withdrawn from the banknote change machines 200 of the money changers A and B. For the example shown in FIG. 7A, for each denomination of banknotes that are withdrawn and collected from the banknote change machine 200 of each of the money changers A and B when the first sales proceeds collection process is performed. The number of sheets and the total amount are shown in FIG. At this time, coins are not dispensed from the coin change machine 100 of each of the money changers A and B.

  7 shows the number and amount of banknotes and coins denominated in the bill change machine 200 and coin change machine 100 in each of the money changers A and B after the first sales collection process is performed. Shown in (c). As shown in FIG. 7 (c), 30 thousand yen bills are left in the bill change machine 200 of the money change machine A, and the bill change machine 200 of the money change machine B is left inside. Will be left with 40 thousand-yen bills. On the other hand, since coins are not withdrawn from the coin change machine 100 of each of the money changers A and B in the first sales collection process, the coin change machine 100 of each of the money changers A and B has a body. The same number of coins as before the first sales collection process is performed for each denomination. The total amount of the coins in the coin change machine 100 of the coin change machine A and the banknotes in the bill change machine 200 is 50,600 yen, and the coin change machine 100 of the coin change machine B The total amount of coins in the body and banknotes in the bill change machine 200 is 50,620 yen. For this reason, the coins and bill change machines 200 in the coin change machine 100 of each of the money changers A and B are used. The total amount of bills in the machine will be 101,220 yen. Still, the fractional amount in the money changer A is 600 yen, the fractional amount in the money changer B is 620 yen, and the sum of the fractional amounts of the money changers A and B is 1,220 yen.

  As described above, when the first sales collection process is performed in each of the money changers A and B, the total value (1,220 yen) of the fractional amounts of the money changers A and B is the minimum of the bill. The unit amount exceeds 1,000 yen. On the other hand, in the third sales collection process described in detail below, another thousand yen bill is collected to minimize the total value of the fractional amounts of each of the money changers A and B. To do.

  Hereinafter, in each of the money changers A and B in the state shown in FIG. 8A, how the balance of each of the money changers A and B changes when the third sales collection process is performed. Will be described with reference to FIGS. The breakdown of the stored money in each of the money changers A and B shown in FIG. 8A is exactly the same as the breakdown of the stored money in each of the money changers A and B shown in FIG.

  As described above, when the third sales collection process is performed, the coins in the coin storage unit 106 of the coin change machine 100 of the money changers A and B and the total bills in the banknote storage unit 206 of the bill changer 200 are included. High is the total size of the total remaining amount including the remaining amount specified from the information stored in the storage unit 134, the storage unit 234, or the storage unit 334 and the fractional amount smaller than the minimum unit amount of the banknote. Thus, only banknotes are withdrawn and collected from the banknote change machine 200 of each money change machine. Here, since 50,000 yen is set as the remaining amount per vehicle, the total remaining amount is 100,000 yen. Further, 10,000 yen bills are not left in the banknote change machines 200 of the money changers A and B as much as possible, while thousand yen bills are left in the banknote change machines 200 of the money changers A and B as much as possible. Thus, banknotes are withdrawn from the banknote change machine 200 of each of the money changers A and B. For the example as shown in FIG. 8A, for each denomination of banknotes that are withdrawn and collected from the banknote change machine 200 of each of the money changers A and B when the third sales collection process is performed. The number of sheets and the total amount are shown in FIG. In the third sales collection process, coins are not dispensed from the coin change machine 100 of each of the money changers A and B, as in the first sales collection process. Also, as shown in FIG. 8B, when the third sales proceeds collection process is performed, the banknote change machine of the money changer B is compared with the case where the first sales proceeds collection process is performed. One extra 1,000 yen bill is withdrawn and collected. Note that the money change machine from which one extra thousand yen bill is dispensed may be set in advance in the control unit 130, the control unit 230, or the control unit 330. . Specifically, one of the money change machines A and B is set as the parent machine (in the example shown in FIG. 8, the money change machine B is set as the parent machine). One extra banknote may be withdrawn from the banknote change machine 200 of the money change machine set as. In addition, the setting of the money change machine that withdraws one extra thousand yen bill is not fixed, and the money that minimizes the difference between the total balance in the machine and the remaining amount (50,000 yen) Each time a change machine is selected by the control unit 130, the control unit 230, or the control unit 330, one extra banknote is dispensed from the banknote change machine 200 of the selected money change machine. Also good.

  And the number and amount of money of each banknote and coin denomination in the bill change machine 200 and the coin change machine 100 of each money change machine A, B after the third sales collection process is performed are shown in FIG. Shown in (c). As shown in FIG. 8 (c), 30 thousand-yen bills are left in the bill change machine 200 of the money changer A, and the bill change machine 200 of the money changer B is left inside the bill change machine 200. Will leave 39 thousand-yen bills. On the other hand, in the third sales collection process, coins are not dispensed from the coin change machines 100 of the money changers A and B. The same number of coins as before the third sales collection process for each denomination is left. The total amount of the coins in the coin change machine 100 of the coin change machine A and the banknotes in the bill change machine 200 is 50,600 yen, and the coin change machine 100 of the coin change machine B The total amount of coins in the body and banknotes in the bill change machine 200 is 49,620 yen. For this reason, the coins and bill change machines 200 in the coin change machine 100 of each of the money changers A and B are used. The total amount of bills in the body is 100,220 yen. Still, the fractional amount in the money changer A is 600 yen, the fractional amount in the money changer B is -380 yen, and the sum of the fractional amounts of the money changers A and B is 220 yen.

  Then, the fractional amount and the total value of the fractional amounts of each of the money changers A and B after the third sales collection process is performed are stored in the storage unit 134, the storage unit 234, or the storage unit 334. Become so. The fractional amount after the third sales collection process is performed may be stored in the same storage unit as the storage unit for storing the remaining amount, or the storage unit for storing the remaining amount. May be stored in a different storage unit. Further, a fractional amount storage unit for storing the fractional amount after the third sales collection process is performed may be provided separately from the storage units 134, 234, and 334 described above.

  As described above, when the third sales proceeds collection process is performed, the total value of the fractional amounts in each of the money changers A and B is compared with the banknote as compared with the case where the first sales proceeds collection process is performed. Less than the minimum unit amount. When the third sales collection process is performed, the total balance of the money changer B is smaller than the remaining amount, but the total value of the fractional amounts in the money changers A and B should be suppressed. When giving priority, the operator selects to execute the third sales collection process. On the other hand, when priority is given to the total balance of each money change machine A, B exceeding the remaining amount of each money change machine, as shown in FIG. The operator selects to execute one sales collection process.

  According to the money handling system 1 according to the modification shown in FIG. 8, a plurality of money change machines for processing money consisting of banknotes and coins are provided, and the control unit 130 of the coin change machine 100 of each money change machine. Alternatively, the control unit 230 of the bill change machine 200 or the control unit 330 of the POS register 300 performs the third sales collection process, and the coin storage unit 106 and the bill change machine of the coin change machine 100 of each money change machine. The total remaining amount of coins and banknotes in the banknote storage unit 200 of the 200 banknotes and the total remaining amount combined with the remaining amount specified from the information stored in the storage unit 134, the storage unit 234, or the storage unit 334, The banknote change machine 200 of each currency change machine is controlled so that only the banknotes are withdrawn so that the total amount is smaller than the minimum unit amount (for example, thousand yen). It has become way. In such a third sales collection process, since only banknotes can be withdrawn when collecting banknotes and coins as sales, coins cannot be deposited into the ATM 12 installed in the store 10a. Even in such a case, the collected money (banknote) can be deposited into the ATM 12. Further, in the third sales collection process, the total amount of the coins left in the body of the coin storage unit 106 of each money change machine and the banknotes left in the body of the banknote storage unit 206 is calculated for each currency. It is always larger than the total remaining amount of money, including the remaining amount of change machines. For this reason, it can prevent that the amount of money of the bill collected will become excessive. In the third sales collection process, the banknotes and coins in the machine body in a plurality of money change machines are collectively managed. For this reason, compared with the case where a money change machine is managed individually when performing sales collection processing, the amount of money left in the whole money processing system 1 can be reduced. That is, in the example shown in FIG. 8, when the third sales collection process is performed, the remaining amount in the entire money processing system 1 is 220 yen, but if the money changer is individually managed, When the first sales collection process is performed for each of the money changers, as shown in FIG. 7, the remaining amount in the entire money processing system 1 is 1,220 yen. In this way, by performing the third sales collection process, it is possible to reduce the remaining amount of money in the money processing system 1 as a whole.
