Abstract

PURPOSE:To eliminate the need for the post-processing of a reregister and a canceling register and to reduce the burden of a casher by changing a transaction content with only a simplified key operation when the change of the transaction content is generated after an adding up operation. CONSTITUTION:When a selling register to one customer is ended and an adding up key 1 is inputted, a receipt on which the sum total and a series of transaction number are print-outputted is issued, and the sum total is added to the sales amount of a transaction corresponding to the input adding up key 1 of a counter by transaction 2. A transaction changing key 6 is inputted in this condition, and when the transaction before changing corresponding to the input adding up key 1, the sum total and the transaction number printed on the issue receipt 5 and the transaction after changing are inputted continuously, the inputted sum total is substracted from the sales amount corresponding to the transaction before changing of the transaction counter 2 and the sum total is added to the sales amount corresponding to the transaction after changing. Besides, a changed receipt 8 on which the inputted sum total and the transaction number are printed is reissued. Thus, the post-processing of a reregister and a canceling register are eliminated and the burden of a casher is reduced.

Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION [Field of Industrial Application] The present invention relates to a product sales data processing device such as an electronic cash register or a POS (point of sale) system.

[Prior Art] Generally, an electronic cash register is provided with a plurality of closing keys for instructing closing of sales registration for each transaction such as cash transaction, credit transaction, credit sale, etc.

After completing the single item registration operation for, for example, - customers, the cashier confirms the transaction method and inputs the closing key corresponding to the transaction requested by the customer.

Then, a receipt is issued on which the total amount of the registered product is printed, and the total amount is accumulated for each transaction in a totalizer for each transaction formed in the memory. In addition,
The memory in which the transaction-by-transaction totalizer is formed is normally provided inside an electronic cash register, but in a POS system (or only in a file controller for managing each electronic cash register (POS terminal)). There is also.

By the way, some customers request a change in transaction method after operating the lock key. In addition, there are cases where the clerk does not listen to the customer's request or presses a key incorrectly and performs a tightening operation that is different from the customer's request. In such a case, Kiya Socha would have to perform the single item registration operation again for all of the customer's products, enter the changed closing key, and reissue the receipt. Also, simply reissuing the receipt will result in double registration, so in order to cancel this double registration, save the receipt before the transaction was changed and, for example, select the "Register Minus" mode after the transaction is completed. It was necessary to perform single item registration and tightening operations according to the receipts that had been saved.

[Problem to be solved by the invention] However, in the conventional product sales data processing device of this type, when a transaction method is changed after closing operation, the corresponding sales registration is redone and a receipt is reissued, and then the change is made. Since registration of cancellation must be performed according to the previously issued receipt, complicated and wasteful post-processing is required, placing a heavy burden on the cashier. In addition, since the initial registration and the changed registration are registered separately in management 1 and are managed with different transaction numbers, it is not possible to correspond with the receipt before the change and the receipt after the change, and when returning goods etc. There was a risk that trouble would occur.

Therefore, the present invention aims to reduce the burden on the cashier by making it possible to change the transaction details with a simple key operation when the transaction details are changed after the closing operation, and eliminating the need for post-processing of re-registration or cancellation registration. It is an object of the present invention to provide a product sales data processing device that is capable of making a correspondence between the receipt before the change and the receipt after the change, thereby preventing the occurrence of troubles such as when returning goods.

[Means for Solving the Problems] As shown in FIG. 1, the present invention provides a plurality of closing keys 1 for instructing closing of sales registration for - customers for each transaction such as cash transaction, credit transaction, credit sale, etc. and a transaction-by-transaction totalizer 2 that totals the sales amount for each transaction, and issues a receipt 5 on which the total amount 3 and a series of transaction numbers 4 are printed in response to the input of any one of the closing keys 1, Input cotton key in transaction totalizer 2] In a product sales data processing device that adds the total amount 3 to the sales amount of the corresponding transaction, a transaction change key 6 for declaring a transaction change after inputting the closing key 1;
An input permission means 7 that permits the input of the transaction 2 total amount and transaction number before change and the transaction after change in response to the input of the transaction change key 6, and the transaction before change permitted by the input permission means 7.

Based on the total amount, transaction number, and each input of the changed transaction, the changed total amount is subtracted from the sales amount corresponding to the pre-change transaction in the transaction totalizer 2, and the total amount is changed to the sales amount corresponding to the changed transaction. transaction change processing means 9 for reissuing a changed receipt 8 on which the changed total amount and changed transaction number are printed.

[Operation] With the device of the present invention that takes such measures, when the sales registration for - customers is completed and the lock key is input, a receipt with the total amount and a series of transaction numbers printed out will be generated. At the same time, the sales amount (this total amount) of the transaction corresponding to the input line key of the transaction totalizer is added. In this state, the transaction change key is input, and then the before change corresponding to the input line key When the total amount printed on the transaction and issued receipt, the transaction number, and the changed transaction are entered, the entered total amount will be subtracted from the sales amount corresponding to the transaction before change in the totalizer for each transaction, and the amount after change will be deducted from the sales amount corresponding to the transaction before change. The above-mentioned total amount is added to the sales amount corresponding to the transaction.Also, a changed receipt with the entered total amount and transaction number printed on it is reissued.

As shown in FIG. 6, the RAM 24 includes a department totalizer 51 that totals the sales amount, number of items sold, etc. of products registered for sale via the keyboard 27 or the barcode scanner 29, for each department; a transaction totalizer 52 that totals the sales amount of products registered for each transaction, a customer totalizer 53 that calculates the total amount by accumulating the sales amount of products registered for sale to -1 customers, and a series of receipts. A counter 54 that counts the number, checks [11] whether or not sales are being registered.
Flag memory 5 that stores the registration flag F1 indicated by 0]
5 mag is formed. Also, a memory 56 that stores the total amount to be changed, receipt number, and transaction code that are permitted to be input when changing a transaction after closing operation.
, 57.58 are formed. Note that the transaction court [0
01] corresponds to cash transactions (deposit/cash key 43), and [0
02] corresponds to credit transactions (credit card key 44), and [003
] corresponds to the credit bill (the bill key 45).

With the "registration" mode selected by the control key 25, the CPU 21 reads the barcode by inputting a combination of the numeric key 4 on the keyboard 27 and the PLU key 46, or by using two barcode scanners. The program is controlled to execute the process shown in FIG. 7 when the llil money/goods operation of the sales item is performed.

That is, when the input of the single item code is detected by the single item registration operation, a makeshift message using the single item code shown in FIG. 10(a) is created and sent to the file controller 11 as a step (STI).

Then, the file controller 1 searches the single product file 14 and reads out the attribute category 1 product name and unit price corresponding to the queried single product code, as shown in Fig. 10(b).
After creating the product data message shown in and responding to the corresponding electronic cash register, the CPU 21 as Sr1 confirms the response to the product data message, and then calculates the product name, unit price, and sales amount (unit price x sales amount) in the data. points) etc. are displayed on the display unit 31. Additionally, the printer 33 is driven to print product names, sales amounts, etc. on receipts and journals.

Furthermore, the sales amount is added to the customer totalizer 53. Also, S
As r1, the number of sales points and sales amount are added to the sales point area and sales amount area of the department totalizer 51 corresponding to the attribute department in the response message. Furthermore, as Sr1, input the single item code, number of sales items, and sales amount as shown in Figure 10 (
Create the sales data message shown in c) and send this message to the file controller 11. Thereafter, the registration flag F1 in the flag memory 55 is set to "1" and the process is terminated.

Further, the CPU 21 presses the deposit/total key 43. from the keyboard 27 in the "registration" mode. Trust meter key 4413) The program is controlled to execute the process shown in FIG. 8 when an input of a close key such as meter key 45 is detected. That is, when an input from any one of the lock keys 43 to 45 is detected, it is confirmed that the registration flag F1 is set to "1", that is, sales are being registered for one customer, and then the STI is activated. The total amount calculated by the customer totalizer 53 is displayed on the display section 31 and printed on the receipt and journal. Next, the count value (receipt number) of the receipt number counter 54 is printed on the receipt and journal as Sr1, and the receipt is issued from the receipt issuing port.

Next, as Sr1, the total amount of the customer totalizer 53 is added to the sales amount area of the transaction totalizer 52 corresponding to the transaction code of the input line key. Further, as Sr1, a transaction data message shown in FIG. 10(d) is created using the total amount including receipt number 1 and the transaction code for this transaction, and is sent to the file controller 11. After that, the customer totalizer 5
4 is cleared, the registration flag F1 is reset to "0", the receipt number counter 54 is updated by "+1", and this processing is completed.

Furthermore, when the CPU 21 detects an input of the transaction change key 48 on the keyboard 27 in the "registration" mode,
It is program-controlled to execute the processing shown in FIG. That is, after confirming that the registration flag F1 has been reset to "0", that is, that sales are not being registered for a single customer, the receipt to be changed is entered as a combination of the number key 41 and # key 47 as the STI. Wait for the number to be entered. If the numeric key 41 is input and then the # key 47 is input, the numeric data is recognized as the receipt number to be changed and stored in the changed receipt number memory 57. Next, press the numeric key 41 as Sr1.
The system waits for the amount to be changed and the details of the transaction to be input by a combination input with any one of the close keys 43 to 45. When the numeric key 41 is input and then any one of the close keys 43 to 45 is input, the digit data is recognized as the sales amount to be changed and stored in the changed amount memory 56, and the input line The transaction code corresponding to the key is stored in the changed transaction code memory 58 as the transaction code before the change.

Next, as Sr1, it waits for the input of any one of the other closing keys 43 to 45 intended for the changed transaction. Then, when any one of the other lock keys 43 to 45 is input, the minus (-) of the transaction total '552 corresponding to the transaction code in the changed transaction code memory 58 is set as Sr1.
The amount in the changed amount memory 56 is added to the sales amount area. Further, as Sr1, the amount in the changed amount memory 56 is added to the selling amount area of the transaction totalizer 52 corresponding to the transaction code of the input line key. Furthermore, the amount in the changed amount memory 56 and the changed receipt number memory 57 as Sr1.
Print the receipt number on the receipt and journal, and issue the receipt as a reissue receipt. next,
Sr7 is the count value of the receipt number counter 54.

Changed receipt number in changed receipt number memory 57, amount in changed amount memory 56, changed transaction code memory 58
The changed transaction data message shown in FIG.

After that, the changed amount memory 56. The changed receipt number memory 57 and the changed transaction code memory 58 are cleared, the receipt number counter 54 is updated by "+1", and this process ends.

In this embodiment with such a configuration, when the deposit/cash key 43 is input as a closing operation for sales registration for - customers, the total amount for this customer calculated by the customer totalizer 53 is (for example, "2,500 yen") is displayed on the display unit 31 and printed on the receipt and journal,
Furthermore, the receipt number (for example, "0010") of the receipt number counter 54 is printed, and a receipt 60 shown in FIG. 11 is issued. Further, the total amount in the customer totalizer 53 is added to the sales amount area of the transaction-specific totalizer 52 corresponding to the transaction code r 0001 J of the cash transaction. Furthermore, the transaction data message shown in FIG. 10(d) is created, transmitted to the file controller 11, and managed by the file controller 11. In addition, a receipt issuing counter 54
is updated.

In the second situation, if the customer requests to change the details of the transaction, the cashier first inputs the transaction change key 48.

Then, the total amount of the transaction 1 before the change, the receipt number,
Since entry of the changed transaction is permitted, the cashier first enters the receipt number ("0010") printed on the receipt 60 using the numeric key 41 and enters the # key 47, then presses the numeric key 41. 41, the total amount ("2500") also printed on the receipt 60 is entered, and the deposit/cash total key 43, which is the lock key that issued this receipt 60, is entered.
Enter. Then, the total amount entered in the changed amount memory 56 is stored, and the changed receipt number memory 57
The receipt number entered in is stored, and the transaction code r0001J of the deposit/cash key 58 input into the changed transaction code memory 58 is stored.

Next, the cashier inputs, for example, the credit card key 44 as the closing key for the transaction requested by the customer. Then, in the transaction totalizer 52, the amount in the changed amount memory 56 is added to the (-) sales amount area corresponding to the transaction code r0001J before the change, and the amount in the changed amount memory 56 is added to the transaction code r0001J after the change.
The same amount is added to the sales amount area corresponding to 2J.

As a result, the total amount added to the sales amount area corresponding to the transaction code ro001J is subtracted by the closing operation using the deposit/cash total key 43, and the total amount added to the sales amount area corresponding to the transaction code r0002j is subtracted by the closing operation using the credit card key 44. This means that the same total amount has been added to the total amount, and the transaction details have been changed in the transaction totalizer 52.

Further, in response to the input of the trust key 44, the total amount in the changed amount memory 56 and the receipt number in the changed receipt number memory 57 are printed on the receipt and journal, and a reissued receipt 61 as shown in FIG. will be issued.

Therefore, if there is a change in the details of a transaction after the closing operation, the transaction change can be easily processed with a simple key operation, and the receipt after the change is immediately reissued, making it possible to cancel or re-register the transaction as easily as possible. Registration is no longer required, greatly reducing the burden on cashiers. Moreover, since a changed receipt is issued immediately without having to re-register as in the past, the waiting time for customers who request changes to transaction details can be shortened. Further, the receipt number of the reissued receipt 61 matches the receipt number of the receipt 60 issued before the change. Therefore, since the receipt 60 before the change and the receipt 61 after the change are matched, there is no possibility of trouble occurring with the customer when returning the product at a later date.

Furthermore, in response to the input of the trust key 44, FIG.
The changed transaction data message shown in e) is created and sent to the file controller 11. Therefore, by recording this changed transaction data in the file controller 11, it is possible to manage detailed data on which transactions have been changed and what kind of changes have been made.

In the above embodiment, the present invention is applied to a POS system and sales registration is performed by inputting a single item code at each electronic cash register. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and for example, electronic The cash register may consist of a single cash register, and sales can be registered by key-inputting product classification codes, sales amounts, etc.

In addition, the transaction totalizer 52 is controlled by the file controller 11, and the transaction change processing is performed according to the change transaction data generated from each electronic cash register.
It may be an S system.

It goes without saying that various other modifications can be made without departing from the spirit of the invention.

[Effects of the Invention] As detailed above, according to the present invention, when the transaction details are changed after the closing operation, it is possible to change the transaction details with a simple key operation, and there is no need to re-register or cancel the transaction. It is possible to provide a product sales data processing device that can reduce the burden on the cashier by eliminating the need for post-processing of registration, and can also prevent troubles when returning products by matching the receipt before the change with the receipt after the change. .
