Description

  Embodiments of the present invention relate to a sales data processing device and a program.

  Conventionally, when a business operator who manages an export goods sales area (duty-free shop) sells products and services sold to non-residents such as foreign tourists, the consumption tax, etc. There is a so-called tax exemption system that exempts taxes. The tax exemption applies to products purchased by the same purchaser at the same store on the same day. Exemption ranges from 5,001 yen to 500,000 yen for consumable items and tax-included amount of 10,001 yen or more for general goods. However, the conventional POS terminal has a mechanism for displaying products that are actually exempt from tax due to tax exemption processing performed after the tax exemption declaration key is operated. Therefore, the clerk cannot know which sales target is exempt from tax until the tax exemption declaration key is actually operated. For this reason, the clerk lacks the opportunity to provide customers with advice that the products subject to tax exemption will be tax exempted without omission.

  The problem to be solved by the present invention is to provide a sales data processing device and a program capable of providing a customer with advice such that products subject to tax exemption are completely tax exempted before tax exemption processing is performed.

The sales data processing device according to the embodiment displays registration means for registering identification information of a product or service and tax exemption information of a product or service subject to tax exemption among the products or services whose identification information is registered by the registration device. If the display means, the tax exemption total amount calculation processing means for calculating the tax exemption total amount about the tax exempted goods or services, and the set value of the tax exemption total amount to be treated as tax exemption, for the tax exempted goods or services If the tax exemption processing means for performing tax exemption processing is outside the range of the set value, the difference between the tax exemption total amount and the set value is displayed, and the tax exemption total amount is exceeded in accordance with the difference. and a display control means for displaying information indicating the lack of information or the exemption total indicating the threshold provided in the balance, wherein the display control unit, the difference is less than the threshold value the difference is a small And if, in the case where the difference is greater than the threshold value, changing the presence or absence of the display of the difference, Ru Monodea.

The control process executed by the control unit 300 of the POS terminal 2 will be described below with reference to FIGS. 9 to 18.
FIG. 9 is a flowchart showing the flow of control processing of the POS terminal 2. In FIG. 9, the control unit 300 determines whether the product code specifying the product has been input using the scanner 25 (S1). When it is determined that the product code has been input (step S1: Yes determination), the control unit 300 acquires product information such as the corresponding product name and tax exemption classification code from the product master file F1 based on the input product code. , The product information is set in the registration table T of the RAM 33 (S2). Specifically, the control unit 300 sets a classification 2 code, a product name, a price, and the like. When the control unit 300 determines that the product code has been input, the control unit 300 subsequently receives the input of the sales number of the product and sets the sales number in the corresponding item of the registration table T. When the sales point is not input, the control unit 300 sets the default “1 (point)”.

  Subsequently, the control unit 300 determines the type of tax exemption mark to be displayed on the display surface from the acquired tax exemption classification code (S3). When the acquired tax exemption classification code is “03”, that is, “non tax exemption target”, the control unit 300 determines that there is no tax exemption mark (step S3: [03] determination), and moves the process to step S4. That is, the control unit 300 performs a process of displaying the product information of the product code set in the registration table T on the display surface (S4).

  On the other hand, when the acquired tax exemption classification code is “01”, that is, “consumables”, the control unit 300 determines that it is a ◯ symbol (step S3: [01]), and the ◯ symbol corresponds to the corresponding item of the registration table T ( It is set in the “tax exemption” item) (S5). Then, the control unit 300 shifts the processing to step S4.

Further, when the acquired tax exemption classification code is “02”, that is, “general goods”, the control unit 300 determines that it is a □ symbol (step S3: [02]), and the □ symbol is the corresponding item of the registration table T. (S6). Then, the control unit 300 shifts the processing to step S4.
After the processing of step S4, the control unit 300 returns to the processing of step S1 and accepts the input of the product code of the subsequent product. By repeating this, the control unit 300 sequentially sets the product information of each product to be sold in the registration table T.

  FIG. 10 is a diagram showing a setting example of the registration table T. Here, an example of setting the registration table T1-1 of FIG. 10A will be described, and FIG. 10B will be described later.

  The registration table T1-1 shown in FIG. 10A has data items of classification m1, product name m2, unit price m3, points m4, ..., Amount m5, tax m6, and tax exemption m7. The classification 2 code n2, the product name n4, and the price n5 shown in FIG. 3 are set in the classification m1, the product name m2, and the unit price m3, respectively. Further, the point m4 is set to the number of sales points of the product when the product code is input. Further, the product of the unit price and the score is set in the amount of money m5. In addition, the tax m6 is set with an internal tax or an external tax. Whether the internal tax or the external tax differs depends on the setting of the POS terminal 2, and here, it is assumed that the external tax is automatically set. Further, the code determined in step S3 is set in the tax exemption m7. For example, a white circle symbol code is set for consumables, and a white square symbol code is set for general articles. A code indicating a default blank is set for tax exemption. Note that, in FIG. 10, for the sake of explanation, the symbol code in the item of tax exemption m7 is indicated by a circle symbol or a square symbol.

  FIG. 11 is a diagram showing a display example of the screen information E2 output by the control unit 300 on the display surface. The screen shown in FIG. 11 is a diagram showing an example of a registration screen based on the screen information E2. As shown in FIG. 11, the registration screen 900 has a product information display area 90, an operation area 91, a payment information display area 92, and a guide information display area 93. The product information display area 90 displays the product information of the product whose product code is read. The operation area 91 displays product information that does not fit in the product information display area 90 by operating the up and down scroll buttons 91-1 and 91-2. The payment information display area 92 displays payment details such as total amount and deposit. The guide information display area 93 displays an operation guide.

  The product information display area 90 has display items of classification m11, product name m12, unit price m13, points m14, ..., Amount m15, tax m16, and tax exemption m17. The classification m11, the product name m12, the unit price m13, the score m14, ..., The amount m15, the tax m16, and the tax exemption m17 are respectively the classification m1, the product name m2, the unit price m3, the score m4, ... It corresponds to the amount of money m5, tax m6, and tax exemption m7.

  In the product information display area 90, product information in which each product code set in the registration table T (for example, the registration table T1-1 illustrated in FIG. 10) is read, and various items of product information are displayed in each item m11 to m17. Corresponding and displayed in a list.

  Here, a list display example of the product information in the setting state shown in the registration table T1-1 of FIG. 10A is shown. In the registration table T1-1 of FIG. 10 (a), the product information set below the registration table T1-1 has a newer reading of the product code. That is, the product information L4 is read last, and the reading order is new in the order of product information L3, product information L2, and product information L1. Therefore, in the product information display area 90 of the registration screen 900 of FIG. 11, the product information of the top four items in the order of reading the product code is displayed. The product information l1, the product information l2, the product information l3, and the product information l4 in the figure are the product information L1, the product information L2. It corresponds to the product information L3 and the product information L4.

  Further, in the item of tax exemption m17, display information of the code set in the tax exemption m7 of the registration table T1-1 of FIG. 10 is displayed. In this example, in the item of tax exemption m7 in FIG. 10, the product information L1, the product information L2. The product information L3 and the product information L4 are set with a symbol code of a white circle symbol, a code indicating a blank space, a symbol code of a white square symbol, and a symbol code of a white circle symbol, respectively. As a result, in the item of tax exemption m17 of the product information l1, the product information l2, the product information l3, and the product information l4 of FIG. 11, a white circle symbol Y1-1, a blank space, and a white square symbol Y2-1, respectively. A white circle symbol Y1-1 is displayed.

Here, returning to the description of FIG. 9, the continuation will be described.
When the reading of the product code of each product is completed (step S1: No determination), the control unit 300 subsequently determines whether the designated cancellation key K4 is pressed (S7). When the designation cancel key K4 is not pressed by the operator (step S7: No determination), the control unit 300 subsequently determines whether the subtotal key K2 is pressed (S8). When the subtotal key K2 is not pressed by the operator (step S8: No determination), the control unit 300 returns to the process of step S1.

  When the operator depresses the designated cancellation key K4 (step S7: Yes determination), the control unit 300 performs designated cancellation processing (S9) and returns to the processing of step S1. The designation cancellation process will be described later. When the operator presses the subtotal key K2 (S8: Yes determination), the control unit 300 performs a subtotal calculation process (S10) and displays the result on the registration screen 900 (see FIG. 12). (S11).

  Subsequently, the control unit 300 determines whether or not the closing key K3 has been pressed (S12). When the tightening key K3 is pressed by the operator (step S12: Yes determination), the control unit 300 subsequently performs the tightening process (S13). In the closing process, the control unit 300 closes the merchandise item registration and shifts to a settlement process (not shown).

  On the other hand, when the tightening key K3 is not pressed by the operator (step S12: No determination), the control unit 300 subsequently determines whether the tax exemption declaration key K1 is pressed (S14). When the tax exemption declaration key K1 is not pressed by the operator (step S14: No determination), the control unit 300 returns to the process of step S12 and determines again whether the closing key K3 is pressed.

  When the tax exemption declaration key K1 is pressed by the operator (step S14: Yes determination), the control unit 300 performs tax exemption calculation / determination processing (S15). In the tax exemption calculation / judgment processing, the control unit 300 determines, for each of the consumable goods and the general goods, a combination of goods in which the total amount of the goods subject to tax exemption falls within the set value of the tax exemption set value file F3 (see FIG. 5) by a predetermined algorithm Calculate the billing amount exempted from the applicable product.

  Then, the control unit 300 rewrites the code of the item of the tax exemption m7 (see FIG. 10) of the tax exempted product among the tax exempted products to a code indicating that the tax exemption is applied and displays the tax exemption mark and the like. Is updated (S16). In this example, various white symbols are rewritten to codes indicating various black symbols. For example, in the case of a consumable item, the code showing the white circle symbol is rewritten to the code showing the black circle symbol. Then, the symbol display of the item of tax exemption m17 on the registration screen 900 is updated from the white symbol to the black symbol. Then, the control unit 300 performs the closing process in step S13.

In the settlement process, the control unit 300 accepts deposit money input, performs money processing such as calculating change, outputs information indicating transaction details to the printer 23, and issues a receipt.
Through the above processing, the operator can perform the following processing as one of customer services. At the time of reading each product, the operator determines whether the read product is a tax exempt item or not based on the display information such as ○ or □ of the tax exemption m17 item of the read product displayed in the product information display area 90 of the registration screen 900. It is possible to determine at a glance whether the product is a consumable item or a general item. In the registration screen 900 shown as an example, only the read products of up to four points are displayed in the product information display area 90, but by operating the up and down scroll buttons 91-1 and 91-2, the tax exemption m17 item of all read products is displayed. You can also check the display information of.

  Therefore, the operator calculates the total amount of consumable items subject to tax exemption and the total amount of general items, respectively, so that the respective total amount reaches the lower limit value of the tax exemption condition, or exceeds the upper limit value for consumable items. It is possible to judge whether there are any sold products. Therefore, the operator can advise the customer of additional purchase or cancellation of the tax exemption object before pressing the tax exemption declaration key. Here, processing of additional purchase of products and cancellation of products will be described in this order.

(Additional purchase)
In the additional purchase, the operator does not press any of the designated cancel key K4 and the subtotal key K2 in the No determination in step S1 after the reading of the product code of each product is completed, and the product information display area of the registration screen 900 is displayed. The information of each read item 90 is confirmed. Specifically, the operator totals all the amounts of the item m15 of the read merchandise item in which the O symbol is displayed in the item of tax exemption m17. Further, the operator totals all the amounts of the items of the amount m15 of the read merchandise in which the □ symbol is displayed in the item of the tax exemption m17. Then, when the total amount of goods read by the O symbol is less than 5,001 yen, the customer is informed of the shortfall. If the total amount of goods read by the □ symbol is less than JPY 10,001, the customer will be notified of the shortfall.

  As an example, a process in the case where a customer adds a product with a ◯ symbol (product A) when neither of the read product with a ◯ symbol and the read product with a □ symbol meets the conditions is shown. The operator uses the scanner 25 to read the code symbol of the product A added by the customer. Then, the control unit 300 accepts the product code of the product A in step S1 and adds the product information of the product A to the registration table T1-1 in step S2. Further, in step S5, the control unit 300 sets a symbol code of a white circle symbol to the item of tax exemption m7 of the added product information.

  FIG. 10B shows the registration table to which the product information of the product A is added. As shown in the registration table T1-2 of FIG. 10B, the product information L5 of the product A is added below the product information L4.

  The control unit 300 further displays the product information in step S4, the operator presses the subtotal key K2 to calculate the subtotal amount in step S10, and displays the result in step S11.

  FIG. 12 is a diagram showing a display example of the registration screen 900 when the product A is added and the subtotal amount is calculated. As shown in FIG. 12, next to the product information l4, the product information l5 of the additional product A is displayed. Here, as described above, only a maximum of four read products can be displayed in the product information display area 90. Therefore, the latest read product is shifted one position above the product information display area 90, and the product information 11 of the product D shown in the registration screen 900 of FIG. 11 is out of the product information display area 90. Further, in the settlement information display area 92, the aggregated value of points m4 and the aggregated value of amount m5 are displayed.

Subsequently, the control unit 300 performs tax exemption calculation / determination processing in step S15 by pressing the tax exemption declaration key K1 by the operator, and updates the display of the tax exemption mark in step S16.
FIG. 13 is a diagram showing a display example of the registration screen 900 when the display of the tax exemption mark is updated. As shown in FIG. 13, the white circle symbols Y1-1 in FIG. 12 showing the consumable items that are tax exempt items are all updated to black circle symbols Y1-2. In addition, since general goods do not meet the conditions here, they are not treated as tax exemption, and are not updated to black with the white square symbol Y2-1.

(Product cancellation)
In the product cancellation, the operator depresses the designated cancellation key K4 and declares the designated cancellation to the control unit 300 in the No determination in step S1 after the reading of the product code of each product is completed.

  FIG. 14 is a flowchart of the designation cancellation process of step S9 after the designation cancellation key K4 is pressed. In the designated cancellation process, the control unit 300 first accepts the cancellation target product (S91). For example, the control unit 300 acquires the position information of the position touched by the operator on the touch panel of the display unit 22, and deletes the product information in the product information display area 90 on the registration screen 900 corresponding to the position, from the cancel target product. Accept as.

  Subsequently, the control unit 300 determines whether or not to cancel the cancellation target product (S92). In this example, the control unit 300 determines whether the designated cancellation key K4 has been pressed again, and determines that the designated cancellation key K4 has been pressed by the operator (step S92: Yes determination). If the operator does not press the designated cancellation key K4, the control unit 300 determines that the designated cancellation is not to be executed (step S92: No determination), returns to step S91, and accepts other canceled products.

  When the control unit 300 determines that the designated cancellation is to be executed (step S92: Yes determination), the cancellation target product accepted in step S91 is canceled, and the process proceeds to step S1.

  In this example, the execution of the designated cancellation is determined by pressing the designated cancellation key again, but an execution key or the like may be separately provided on the keyboard 21. Further, an execution key may be provided on the registration screen 900.

  FIG. 15 is a diagram showing a setting example of the registration table T when the consumable supplies exceed the condition amount. FIG. 15A is a diagram showing a setting example of the registration table T before the product is deleted. In the table T2-1 shown in FIG. 15 (a), the consumable items that are tax exempt items exceed “400 yen”. When the operator notifies the customer of the excess amount, it is assumed that the customer has designated the products F and B as the cancellation target products. The product F and the product B have a low purchase priority for the customer, and the total amount of these items is “440 yen”, so that the total amount is set within the upper limit amount of the consumable item by deletion. The operator selects the product information of the product F and the product B by touching or the like in the product information display area 90 of the registration screen 900, and further presses the designation cancel key K4. Accordingly, the control unit 300 executes the cancellation of the designated product.

  16 and 17 are diagrams showing display examples when the operator touches the product information in the product information display area 90 of the registration screen 900. FIG. 16 is a diagram showing a display example when the product information of the product B is touched. As shown in FIG. 16, in the product information display area 90, product information of the latest four read products is displayed. The product information of the product B is shown in the product information 121 and is displayed in the product information display area 90. When the operator touches the display position of the product information l21 on the touch panel, the control unit 300 reversely displays the area indicated by the hatched portion in the figure. This allows the operator to visually confirm the product designated as the cancellation target product. The product information of the product F is not displayed in the product information display area 90. The operator continues to press the scroll button 91-1 for displaying the data above the registration table T until the product information of the product F is displayed.

  FIG. 17 is a diagram showing a display example when the operator presses the scroll button 91-1 to display the product information of the product F in the product information display area 90, and further when the operator touches the product information of the product F. is there. Similarly to the product information of the product B shown in FIG. 16, the control unit 300 also displays the product information of the product F in a shaded area in the drawing, which indicates the touched product information. Thereafter, the operator instructs the control unit 300 to cancel the designated product by pressing the designated cancellation key K4.

  FIG. 15B is a diagram showing a setting example of the registration table T after the cancellation is executed. The product information L12 of the product F and the product information L21 of the product B indicated by diagonal lines in the table T2-2 shown in FIG. 15B are deleted from the table.

  FIG. 18 is a diagram showing a display example of the registration screen 900 when the display of the tax exemption mark is updated in step S16 after cancellation. As shown in FIG. 18, all the items of the tax exemption m17 regarding the consumables that are the tax exemption target items are updated to the black circle symbols Y1-2. In addition, all items of the tax exemption m17 are also updated to black-painted □ symbol Y2-2 for general items that are tax exemption items. Although not displayed in the same figure, by operating the up and down scroll buttons 91-1 and 91-2, all the items of the tax exemption m17 are also included in the consumables and general items of other tax exemption items that are not displayed. Updated to black paint.

  In the present embodiment, an example in which the tax exemption classification code is input at the server and the product master file including the tax exemption classification code is distributed from the server to the POS terminal has been described, but it is modified so that the product master file is set at the POS terminal. You may.

  Further, in the present embodiment, an embodiment is shown in which the operator sums the respective amounts of the products with the tax exemption object symbol on the registration screen and further judges whether the total amount satisfies the tax exemption condition. . However, the embodiment is not limited to the aspect. The processing performed by the operator may be modified so that it can be performed by the POS terminal.

  As described above, in the sales data processing device according to the present embodiment, the operator can determine from the tax exemption information on the display screen whether or not the product is a tax exempt item from the stage of product registration before tax exemption processing is performed. Then, the operator can know what the total amount of tax exempt items is before pressing the tax exemption declaration key. Therefore, it is possible to provide tax exemption for tax-exempt items by providing customers with advice so that tax-exempt items can be exempted without omission, and by adding or canceling products if necessary. Become. Further, in the present embodiment, since the display of the tax exemption information of the tax exemption-restricted goods whose tax exemption has been confirmed is changed, it becomes clear which of the tax exemption-restricted goods are actually exempted from the tax, and the transparency of the tax exemption processing becomes more transparent. Will increase.

(Modification 1)
In the following, a modified example of the registration process for causing the POS terminal to perform a process of notifying the operator of the shortage amount or the excess amount when the tax exemption target product that is not exempted due to the shortage or excess of the purchase amount occurs.

  FIG. 19 is a flowchart showing the flow of control processing of the POS terminal of the first modification. The processes of steps S21, S22, S23, S24, S25, and S26 shown in FIG. 19 correspond to the processes of steps S1, S2, S3, S4, S5, and S6 shown in FIG. 9, respectively. Furthermore, the processes of steps S27, S28, S29, S30, S31, S38, and S39 shown in FIG. 19 correspond to the processes of steps S8, S10, S11, S12, S13, S15, and S16 shown in FIG. 9, respectively. To do. The process for canceling the designation in steps S7 and S9 shown in FIG. 9 is performed in steps S33 and S37 after pressing the closing key K3 in the flowchart of FIG. In the following, the process in the case where No is determined in step S30 will be described.

  When the closing key K3 is not pressed by the operator (step S30: No determination), the control unit 300 determines whether to execute the tax exemption total amount calculation processing (S32). In this example, a tax exemption amount calculation key for touch input is provided in the space of the registration screen 900 (for example, between the scroll buttons 91-1 and 91-2), and when the tax exemption amount calculation key is pressed, the control unit 300 Determines that the tax exemption total amount calculation process is executed (step S32: Yes determination). In addition to the above, a key on the keyboard 21 may be assigned as a tax exemption total amount calculation key to instruct the control unit 300 to execute the tax exemption total amount calculation process.

  When the tax exemption amount calculation key is not pressed by the operator (step S32: No determination), the control unit 300 subsequently determines whether the correction key is pressed (S33). The correction key is the designated cancellation key K4 or the additional key. The additional key is a key for making a declaration to add a product when the total amount of tax exempt products does not reach the lower limit of the tax exemption condition. The additional keys are assigned to the keys on the keyboard 21. In addition, an additional key for touch input may be provided on the registration screen 900.

When the correction key is not pressed by the operator (step S33: No determination), the control unit 300 subsequently determines whether the tax exemption declaration key K1 is pressed (S34). When the tax exemption declaration key K1 is not pressed by the operator (step S34: No determination), the control unit 300 returns to the process of step S30 and determines again whether the closing key K3 is pressed.
When the operator touches the tax exemption total amount calculation key (step S32: Yes determination), the control unit 300 executes the tax exemption total amount calculation process (S35) and displays the difference amount of the calculation result (S36).

  FIG. 20 is a flowchart showing an example of tax exemption total amount calculation processing. As shown in FIG. 20, the control unit 300 first calculates the total amount (K) of consumables (S281). Specifically, the control unit 300 refers to the set value of the item of tax exemption m7 from the first line to the last line of the registration table T, and the amount m5 corresponding to the case where the set value is a code indicating a white circle symbol. The value of the item is added to the value of the variable K. The initial value of the variable K is “0”.

  Subsequently, the control unit 300 compares the upper limit value “500,000” set in the tax exemption classification code “01” of the tax exemption setting value file F3 (see FIG. 5) with the value of the variable K (S282). Then, the control unit 300 determines whether the value of the variable K is larger than the upper limit value (S283). When the value of the variable K is larger than the upper limit value (step S283: Yes determination), the control unit 300 sets information indicating excess or information indicating a specific difference amount in the notification screen information (S284).

  When the value of the variable K is less than or equal to the upper limit value (step S283: No determination), the control unit 300 compares the lower limit value “5,001” set in the tax exemption classification code “01” with the value of the variable K. (S285). Then, the control unit 300 determines whether the value of the variable K is smaller than the lower limit value (S286). When the value of the variable K is smaller than the lower limit value (step S286: Yes determination), the control unit 300 sets information indicating a shortage, information indicating a specific difference, etc. in the notification screen information (S287). When the value of the variable K is equal to or more than the lower limit value (step S286: No determination), information indicating that the tax exemption condition is satisfied is set in the notification screen information (S288).

  As described above, the control unit 300 executes the consumables tax exemption total calculation process by the processes of steps S281 to S288.

  After the processes of steps S284, S287, and S288, the control unit 300 proceeds to step S289 and executes the tax exemption total amount calculation process for general items. In the processing for a general item, the value of the variable K is first reset, and the total amount (K) of the general item is calculated in the same manner as the consumable item. Then, the lower limit value "10,001" set in the tax exemption classification code "02" of the tax exemption set value file F3 (see FIG. 5) is compared with the value of the variable K. When the value of the variable K is smaller than the lower limit value, the control unit 300 sets information indicating a shortage, information indicating a specific difference, or the like in the notification screen information. When the value of the variable K is equal to or more than the lower limit value, information indicating that the tax exemption condition is satisfied is set in the notification screen information.

  After the execution of the tax exemption total amount calculation process for general goods, the control unit 300 displays the difference amount in step S36.

  FIG. 21 is a diagram showing a display example of a notification screen based on the notification screen information. Here, as an example, a notification screen that is displayed when the consumable supplies exceed the upper limit is shown. On the notification screen 950 shown in FIG. 21, information indicating excess and information indicating the difference amount are displayed. Specifically, in this example, “exemption object (consumable item) exceeds the total amount” is displayed as the information indicating the excess. Also. As the difference, the actual difference "400 yen" is displayed. The notification screen 950 is closed by pressing the closing key K3, the tax exemption amount calculation key, the correction key, the tax exemption declaration key K1, and the like. In addition, here, as the information indicating that the tax exemption is not performed, the information indicating the excess amount of money is displayed, but the information is not limited to this. For example, when the amount of money is insufficient, information indicating that the amount of money is insufficient is displayed. In addition, any other information indicating that tax exemption is not performed may be appropriately modified.

  Returning to FIG. 19, when the operator presses the additional key (step S33: addition), the control unit 300 proceeds to the process of step S21 and accepts the additional product code.

  When the operator has pressed the designation cancel key K4, the control unit 300 performs designation cancellation processing (S37), and proceeds to the processing of step S21.

  When the tax exemption declaration key K1 is pressed by the operator, the control unit 300 performs tax exemption calculation / determination processing (S38) and updates the tax exemption mark (S39).

  In this modification, an example in which the difference amount is displayed on the notification screen when the value deviates from the set value by comparison with the set value in the tax exemption set value file F3 has been shown, but the present invention is not limited to this. For example, a threshold may be set for the difference, and when the difference is small, such as when the difference is small, the operator may be notified by pop-up or the like, and other notifications may not be performed.

(Modification 2)
