Description

Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention has a registration data buffer for accumulating product sales data obtained by code input from a code input means for one customer, and collects product sales data in this buffer for receipt. The present invention relates to an electronic cash register that prints out on a computer.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art In a conventional electronic cash register, generally, when a product code is input from an input unit, registration data of the product is printed on a receipt each time. It is known that such an electronic cash register performs a printing operation of a registration result every time a product code is input and a registration process is performed. In this electronic cash register, the printing operation performed after inputting the closing data is limited to the total amount of money, the amount of change, etc., so that the time from the completion of the closing operation to the receipt of the receipt can be short. Therefore, after the operator performs the operation, the waiting time until the start of the next operation or work, that is, the time required to process the electronic cash register is short, and the number of processable customers per electronic cash register is reduced. It has the feature that many can be done.

However, in the conventional electronic cash register, a plurality of identical commodities are purchased, and the operator does not collectively perform the registration operation for the plurality of identical commodities but divides them into a plurality of registration operations. If you perform a registration operation for other products in the meantime, the registration results for the same product will be printed at multiple locations on the receipt, with the registration results of other products printed in between. Not only will the receipts become redundant, but confirmation of purchase details will be extremely complicated. Therefore, in order to solve the above problem, there is a drawback in that the operator is forced to perform a complicated work of finding all the same products out of all the purchased products and registering them all together.

By the way, in recent years, an increasing number of stores have installed a plurality of electronic cash registers in one store so that they can process a large number of customers in a short time. In such stores, multiple electronic cash registers can process a large number of customers per hour, so the need to shorten the time required to issue a receipt as much as possible to increase the cash register's processing capacity is not so strong. It was Therefore, even if the time required to issue a receipt is a little longer, the issued receipt is used when the customer confirms the purchased product and its amount,
Since it is used to keep a household account book, issuing a receipt that makes it easy to see the details of the purchase will lead to service to customers, and is effective in gaining more customers. There has been a demand for an electronic cash register which can issue a receipt in which purchase contents can be easily viewed without restricting the operation of registering a rater. For example, one described in Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 1-263898 has been invented. ..

The electronic cash register judges whether or not the registration data of the same product is stored in the one-customer registration data storage unit every time the registration data is obtained by the input of the product code from the input unit, and the memory is stored. If it is, the amount of new registration data is added to the registration data of the same product, and if it is not stored, the new registration data is stored in the empty area of the one-customer registration data storage unit. There is. Then, when the closing data is input, the registration data accumulated in the one-customer registration data storage unit is sequentially read and printed out on the receipt. With the conventional device having such a configuration, even if the operator collectively performs the registration operation on the same product purchased by one customer without inputting them all at once, the registration data of the same product can be obtained. Are collected and printed on a receipt as a product name, unit price, number, amount, etc. at one place on the receipt. Therefore, the registration operation of the operator is not complicated, the same product name is not distributed and printed at several places, the receipt is simplified without increasing the number of print lines, and the receipt is easy to read. There is an advantage that can be.

[0006]

However, in all such conventional electronic cash registers, the order of the registration results printed on the receipt depends on the order in which the operator performs the registration operation. Therefore, when registering products with different categories of food, clothing, daily necessities, etc. in the same electronic cash register, such as in a supermarket, etc. Registration data of the product may be printed. In this case, it becomes a very complicated work for the customer to look at the receipt later and find out the products of the same classification, and to grasp the total amount of the plurality of products of the same classification, for example, when keeping a household account book.

In order to print the registration results of similar products continuously on the receipt, it is necessary for the operator to register the products in the order in which they want them to be printed on the receipt. It is necessary to confirm the classification of purchased products, select the same classified products, and perform the registration operation continuously for the same classified products, which increases the operator's work load in the registration operation and reduces the efficiency of the registration operation. Met. Therefore, the present invention prints the registration data collectively for each product category without burdening the operator, that is, without depending on the registration operation sequence of the products, and further aggregates the purchase amount for each category. An object of the present invention is to provide an electronic cash register in which print data to be printed on a receipt is edited so that the print result can be seen more easily and the print data is printed on the receipt to issue the receipt.

[0008]

An electronic cash register according to the present invention has an input section for inputting data and a product information storage section for storing a unit price corresponding to a product code. A registration data storage process for reading a unit price corresponding to the input of a code from the product information storage unit and performing registration process, and creating and storing registration data including amount data corresponding to the input product code. In response to the closing data being input, print data creation processing is performed to create receipt print data from the registration data, and this receipt print data is sequentially printed by the printing unit to issue a receipt. In the electronic cash register for processing, one customer registration data storing registration data for one customer including the product code and the amount data. A storage unit, a classification information storage unit that stores a classification code corresponding to a product code, and, in response to the input of the product code from the input unit, creates registration data including amount data corresponding to the product code. A registration data edit storage means for storing the registration data in the one-customer registration data storage unit in the order in which the registration data is collected for each classification code based on the classification code corresponding to the product code,
The total sum amount data obtained by summing the amount data of the registered data according to the corresponding classification code is stored in the total sort storage unit according to the corresponding sort code to create the sort total data including the sort code and the sum amount data. Print data for creating receipt print data including aggregating means, registration data stored in the one-customer registration data storage unit in response to input of the closing data, and classification aggregate data stored in the category-based aggregate storage unit It is characterized by comprising a creating means.

[0009]

With this structure, when the product code is input from the input section, registration data including the product code and the amount of money corresponding to the product code is created, and based on the classification code corresponding to the product code. Then, the registration data is stored in the one-customer registration data storage unit according to the order in which the registration data is classified according to the classification code. Further, the amount data of the registration data is aggregated according to the corresponding classification code and is aggregated and stored in the classification-specific aggregation storage unit corresponding to the classification code to create the classification aggregated data. Then, according to the input of the closing data, the receipt print data as the registration result based on the registration data stored in the order in which the classification codes are summarized and the classification aggregation data including the aggregated amount data aggregated for each classification code. Is created. Therefore, the receipt print data is a series of registered data having the same classification code, and the receipt print data further includes classification summary data in which the amount data of the same classification code is compiled. Then, since the receipt print data is sequentially printed by the printing unit, the registration data regarding the products of the same classification are collectively printed continuously on the receipt.
In addition, the total purchase price of the products of the same classification is printed as the total price for each classification.

Also, in the normal registration process, after entering the product code for a few minutes for the customer to purchase,
The subtotal key is operated, and the deposit / cash total key is operated. In this embodiment, description will be made by taking an example of inputting the product code by operating the PLU key 16 after entering the product code with the numeric key 13. .. The edit counter B26, the work counter C27, and the department counter D28 count the numbers and also indicate predetermined addresses. Also, in this embodiment, an example will be described in which registered registration data is rearranged in ascending order of department code.

The key operated in step 100 is the PLU
It is determined whether it is the key 16, and if not, step 10
In step 6, it is determined whether it is the total key 17, otherwise, in step 108 it is determined whether it is the deposit / cash total key 18, and if not, other processing is executed in step 116. As the other processing, it is conceivable to store the numerical data input from the numeric keys in the work memory.
If it is determined in step 100 that the product code is the PLU key 16, it is determined in step 101 whether the product code entered before the PLU key 16 is operated is stored in the product table 19. If the corresponding product code is not stored in the product table 19, it is an operation error, and error processing such as turning off the buzzer is performed in step 102. If the product code is stored in the product table 19, the product name, unit price, etc. are displayed on the display 7 in step 103, and the number of registrations, that is, the number of products purchased by the customer is counted in the registration counter A25 in step 144. To do. The number of products counted by the registration counter A25 is incremented by 1 in the case of single product registration, and is incremented by the multiplied number in the case of multiple products being multiply registered. In step 105, the product code, product name, unit price, etc. regarding the product registered in the registration memory 21 are stored.

If it is determined in step 106 that the total key 17 has been operated, a flag 1 indicating that the total key 17 has been operated is set in the total flag memory 24 in step 107. Deposit / cash total key 18 in step 108
When it is determined that the subtotal process is executed, the subtotal flag (not shown) is checked in step 109. If it is determined that the subtotal process has not been executed, an error process such as turning off the buzzer is executed in step 117. If subtotal processing is being executed, step 11
The change is displayed at 0, and it is determined at step 111 whether 1 is set in the total flag memory 24. Step 1
If it is determined in step 11 that 1 is set in the total flag memory 24, it is instructed to issue a total receipt in step 112, so total processing is executed in step 112, and print processing is executed in step 113. Step 1
If it is determined in 11 that 1 is not set in the total flag memory 24, the printing process of step 114 is directly executed. The totaling process in step 112 and the printing process in step 113 will be described with reference to FIGS. Step 114
Then, data is added to each of the product table 19 and the department table 20 in the product sales score area 194, the product sales amount area 195, the department sales score area 203, and the department sales amount area 204. At step 115, various counters, flags, and registration memory 21 are added. , The edit memory 22, the department total memory 23, etc. are cleared.

FIG. 6 is a flow chart showing in detail the totalizing process in step 112. This flowchart shows a process of storing the registration data stored in the registration memory 21 in the editing memory 22 in ascending order of department code,
Processing for totaling registered products by department (step 13)
1 and later). In step 118, the edit counter B26 is set to 1 and the work counter C27 is set to 1. In step 119, the value of the registration counter A25 is compared with the value of the edit counter B26. If the value of the edit counter B26 is larger than the value of the registration counter A25, step 131
Proceed to and aggregate by department. Otherwise, the registration data not yet stored in the editing memory 22 is the registration memory 2
Since the number 1 remains, the process proceeds to step 120. Step 1
At 20, it is determined whether the value of the edit counter B26 is 1, and if it is 1, the process is for the first registration data of the registration memory 21, so the first registration data of the registration memory 21 is stored at the top of the editing memory 22, and step 122 Edit counter B
The value of 26 is set to 2, and the registration counter A of step 119 is set.
Return to comparison with 25.

If it is determined in step 120 that the value of the edit counter B26 is not 1, then in step 123, the division code of the registration data stored in the position indicated by the edit counter B26 in the registration data of the registration memory 21 is stored. ,
Of the registered data in the editing memory 22, the work counter C
The department code of the registration data stored in the position indicated by 27 is compared. When it is determined in step 124 that the department code stored in the registration memory 21 is smaller, in step 125, among the registration data in the registration memory 21,
The registration data stored in the position indicated by the edit counter B26 is stored in the edit memory 22. The stored position is the position indicated by the work counter C27. At this time, the registration data after the registration data indicated by the work counter C27 stored in the editing memory 22 is shifted by one and shifted. Work counter C2 in step 126
Set the value of 7 back to 1. That is, the value of the work counter C27 indicates the beginning of the registered data stored in the edit memory 22, and the value of the edit counter B26 is incremented by 1 in step 127. This indicates that the next registration data stored in the registration memory 21 is processed. After that, the registration counter A2 in step 119
Returning to the comparison between 5 and the value of the edit counter B26.

When it is determined in step 124 that the department code of the registration data stored in the registration memory 21 is not smaller, in step 128 the work counter C27
Is incremented by 1 to indicate the next registration data stored in the editing memory 22. In step 129, edit memory 22 (position indicated by the value of work counter C27)
It is determined whether the registration data is stored in. If the registration data is stored, the process returns to step 123, and of the registration data in the registration memory 21, the department code of the registration data stored at the position indicated by the editing counter B26 and the registration data stored in the editing memory 22. Among these, the process after comparing the department code of the registration data stored in the position indicated by the work counter C27 is repeated. When it is determined in step 129 that the registration data is not stored, the registration data stored in the position indicated by the edit counter B26 among the registration data stored in the registration memory 21 in step 130 is set to the edit memory 22. Is stored in the position indicated by the work counter C27, and the process after step 126 of returning the value of the work counter C27 to 1 is executed as described above. Note that step 118 to step 1
Reference numeral 30 is a registration data edit storage means.

If it is determined in step 119 that the value of the editing counter B26 is larger than the value of the registration counter A25, it means that the process of rearranging and storing all the registered data in the editing memory 22 is completed. Therefore, the process proceeds to step 131, and the edit counter B26
And the department counter D28 to 1, and the work counter C27
To 2. In step 132, the department code, the number of points purchased, and the purchase amount of the registration data at the head of the editing memory 22 are stored in the editing memory 22 for each department. In step 133, it is determined whether or not the registration data is stored in the edit memory 22 (the position indicated by the work counter C27).

If it is determined that the registration data is stored, the department code of the registration data stored in the position indicated by the editing counter B26 among the registration data stored in the editing memory 22 in step 135, Of the registration data stored in the editing memory 22, the department code of the registration data stored in the position indicated by the work counter C27 is compared. In step 136, it is determined whether the department codes of both registration data are the same, and if they are different,
Since it needs to be newly stored in the department totalization memory 23, the value of the edit counter B26 is set to the value of the work counter C27 and the values of the work counter C27 and the department counter D28 are incremented by 1 in step 137. This is because the edit counter B26 indicates the registered data to be processed, the work counter C27 indicates the next registered data, and the department counter D28 indicates the data storage destination of the department-specific totaling memory 23. .. Of the registration data stored in the edit memory 22 in step 138, the department code, purchase point, and purchase amount of the registration data stored in the position indicated by the edit counter B26 are displayed in the edit memory 2 for each department.
2 (position indicated by department counter D28). Thereafter, the process returns to step 133, and the process of determining whether or not the registration data is stored in the edit memory 22 (the position indicated by the work counter C27) is repeatedly executed.

If it is determined in step 136 that the department codes of both registration data are the same, step 139
Of the registration data stored in the editing memory 22 by
The purchase points and purchase amount of the registration data stored in the position indicated by the work counter C27 are stored in the department edit memory 22.
It is added to (the position indicated by the department counter D28). At step 140, the work counter C27 increments by 1 as indicated by the registered data to be processed, and the process returns to step 133. The edit memory 22 (position indicated by the work counter C27)
The process of determining whether the registration data is stored in is repeatedly executed. If it is determined in step 133 that the registration data is not stored in the editing memory 22 (the position indicated by the work counter C27), in step 134 the department name corresponding to the department code stored in the department total memory 23 is used. It is read from the department name area 202 of the table 20 and stored. Note that step 131 to step 140
Is a means of summarizing by classification.

FIG. 7 is a flow chart showing in detail the printing process of the step 113. In step 141, the edit counter B26 and the department counter D28 are set to 1, and the work counter C27 is set to 2. This is the edit counter B2
6 shows the registration data to be printed, and the work counter C27
Indicates the registered data storing the department code to be compared, and the department counter D28 indicates the department data to be printed. In step 142, the total flag memory 24 is checked to determine whether 1 is set as the flag. If 1 is not set, it means that the receipt is normally issued, and the process proceeds to step 153. In step 153, of the registration data stored in the registration memory 21, the registration data stored at the position indicated by the edit counter B26 is edited into print data and stored in the print edit memory 29. In step 154, the data in the print edit memory 29 is output to the R / J printer 9, and in step 155, the value of the edit counter B26 is incremented by 1. In step 156, the value of the registration counter A25 is compared with the value of the edit counter B26,
If the registration counter A25 is smaller, it means that all the registration data of the customer has been printed, so step 163.
Proceed to. Otherwise, the process returns to step 153 and printing is repeated.

If 1 is set in the total flag memory 24 in step 142, the process proceeds to step 143 to issue a total receipt. In step 143, of the registration data stored in the editing memory 22, the registration data stored in the position indicated by the editing counter B26 is edited into print data and stored in the print editing memory 29. In step 144, the print editing memory 29 is printed on the R / J printer 9.
Is output, and the registration counter A2 is output in step 145.
5 and the work counter C27 are compared. If the value of the work counter C27 is larger than the registration counter A25, it means that all the registration data stored in the editing memory 22 has been printed. Therefore, the department data in the department-specific editing memory 22 in step 151 is stored in the print editing memory 29. Proceed to the process of storing.

If the value of the work counter C27 is not larger than the value of the registration counter A25, the division of the registration data stored in the position indicated by the edit counter B26 among the registration data stored in the edit memory 22 in step 146. The code is compared with the department code stored in the position indicated by the work counter C27. If it is determined in step 147 that the department codes are the same, step 1
The print editing memory 2 edits the registration data stored in the position indicated by the work counter C27 into print data at 48.
Store in 9. In step 149, the data in the print edit memory 29 is output to the R / J printer 9, and in step 150
Then, add 1 to the value of work counter C27 and step 1
The process returns to the comparison processing with the registration counter A25 of 45. When it is determined in step 147 that the department codes are different, in step 157, the department data stored at the position indicated by the department counter D28 among the department data stored in the department total memory 23 is stored in the print editing memory 29. Remember
In step 158, the print edit memory 2 is printed on the R / J printer 9.
9 data is output, and the department counter D is output in step 159.
Add 1 to the value of 28. In step 160, of the registration data stored in the editing memory 22, the registration data stored in the position indicated by the work counter C27 is edited into print data and stored in the print editing memory 29. In step 161, the print editing memory 29 is printed on the R / J printer 9.
Is output, and the edit counter B2 is output in step 162.
The value of 6 is set to the value of the work counter C27, the value of the work counter C27 is incremented by 1, and the process returns to the comparison process with the registration counter A25 in step 145.

When it is determined in step 145 that the value of the work counter C27 is larger than the value of the registration counter A25, in step 151, in the department data stored in the department total memory 23, the position indicated by the department counter D28 is displayed. The stored department data is stored in the print edit memory 29, and in step 152, the data in the print edit memory 29 is output to the R / J printer 9. In step 163, the purchase amount, the change amount, and the like stored in the purchase amount area and the change amount area (not shown) are printed and edited.
Then, in step 164, the data in the print edit memory 29 is output to the R / J printer 9. Step 14
3, 148, 151, 157 and 160 are print data creating means.

Next, the operation of this embodiment will be described based on a concrete example. FIG. 8 is a diagram showing a receipt issued in this embodiment. (A) shows a normal receipt, and (B) shows a receipt totaled for each department. Now suppose that a customer purchases a product. It is assumed that the purchased products will be registered in the order of onion, gyukarubi, cabbage, tobacco A, and lettuce. The operator operates the keyboard to input the product code 0003 of the onion by operating the ten keys 13 and then operates the PLU key 16. As a result, the name, unit price, and department code corresponding to the input product code are read from the product table 19, and the unit price 245, which is the registered amount, is displayed on the display unit 7. The number of registrations, 1, is added to the value of the registration counter A25. Then, in the registration memory 21, the product code 0003,
The name onion, the unit price 245, the number of registration points of 1, the purchase amount of 245, and the department code 01 are stored. The number of points to be purchased and the amount of purchase are changed due to multiplication registration and the like. This process is also executed for gyukarubi, cabbage, tobacco A, and lettuce that are registered next. When all registrations are completed, the contents of the registration memory 21 become as shown in FIG. 4, and the value of the registration counter A25 becomes 5.

For normal receipt issuance, the operator operates the subtotal key 15 to display the subtotal amount on the display unit 7, inputs the amount deposited from the customer with the ten-key pad 13, and then deposit / cash total key. 18 is operated. The registered products are printed on the receipt paper in the order in which they are registered, and the receipt is issued. That is, in the case of an onion as shown in FIG. 8A, the product code "3" is printed, and the product name "onion" and the purchase amount "¥ 24" are printed below the product code.
5 "is printed in order and a receipt is issued.

On the other hand, if you want to issue a total receipt,
The totalizing key 17 is operated at an arbitrary timing before inputting the deposit / cash total key 18. At this time, the total flag memory 2
1 is set in 4. After that, if you operate the subtotal and operate the deposit / cash total key 18, after displaying the change, etc.,
The counting flag memory 24 is checked, and since the counting flag memory 24 is set to 1, the counting process is executed. First, the registration data in the registration memory 21 is stored in the editing memory 22 in ascending order of department number. As shown in FIG. 4, the contents of the editing memory 22 are onion, cabbage, lettuce, gyukarubi, and tobacco A. Next, based on the registration data stored in the editing memory 22, the department totaling memory 23 stores the number of points purchased for each department code,
Store the total purchase amount. Then, the department name corresponding to the department code is read from the department table 20 and stored in the department total memory 23. As shown in FIG. 4, the contents of the department total memory 23 are 01 in the department code area 231.
The department name area 232 stores cabbage, the department purchase score area 233 stores 3 and the department purchase amount area 234 stores 625.

Thereafter, the printing process is executed based on the contents of the edit memory 22 and the department total memory 23. That is, the process of printing the same department code in the edit memory 22 and then printing the department data in the department-specific edit memory 22 is repeated. This prints the onion, cabbage, and lettuce, then prints the department name Yasai, the department purchase score of 3, and the department purchase amount of 625 (see FIG. 8).
(A)), after printing gyukarubi, department name Seinik, department purchase score 1 and department purchase amount 729
Is printed (FIG. 8 (a)), the cigarette A is printed, and then the department name Shohin, the department purchase score 1 and the department purchase amount 220 are printed (FIG. 8 (c)). The receipt shown in FIG. 8B is issued.

As described above, according to the present invention, it is possible to issue a receipt in which registration data is printed collectively for each department without the operator having to care about the registration order. Also, by printing the points and the amount of money collected for each department at the same time, it is possible to provide a receipt that is easy to see and convenient for the customer to keep a household account book. Further, since the normal rate and the totaled receipts can be switched and issued, it is possible to efficiently perform business.

The present invention is not limited to this embodiment. For example, the normal receipt issuance and the total receipt issuance are selected by the operation of the total key 17, but it is like a DIP switch.
If the selection is made in advance, the normal receipt is printed in response to the input of the product code, so that the issuing efficiency at the time of the normal receipt is increased. If a printer with a high printing speed such as a thermal printer is used as the printer, the receipt issuing speed will be further increased. Further, although the totals are printed for each department code, they may be totaled for each class code or group code. Further, although the registration data once stored in the registration memory is rearranged and stored in the editing memory, the rearrangement can be performed only by the registration memory if the rearrangement is executed when the registration data occurs. However, in that case, it is of course necessary to specify whether to issue an edited receipt in advance or a normal receipt, or to always issue an edited receipt. Furthermore, the input of the product code is described as input from the keyboard, but it may be input by a barcode scanner. Further, although the registered products are rearranged in the ascending order of the department code, they may be arranged in the descending order of the department code. Other various modifications can be made without departing from the scope of the present invention.
