Abstract

PURPOSE:To prevent a misissue due to misrecognition, storage misoperation, etc., by monitoring the generation of a discrepancy between issued actual control information and information which is controlled in the system. CONSTITUTION:When certificates, etc., are automatically stored, the control information of the certificate is optically read and the control information of the certificate is recognized and stored in a file 3. Then, when certificates, etc., are automatically issued, the certificate is fed out of a certificate storage part 9 and the control information of the certificate is optically read to recognize the control information of the document; and this control information is compared with the control information stored in the file 3 and the issue of the certificate is made effective only when matching control information is found. Namely, the matching check between the control information of the certificate to be issued and the control information on the stored certificate is made to monitor the discrepancy between the issued actual control information and the information controlled for the system at all times.

Description

Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a certificate management system for an automatic certificate issuing device which issues and issues a certificate from the certificate storage section according to an operator's operation.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art In an important certificate represented by a bond certificate, management information such as a number is attached to each certificate. Conventionally, in the certificate management system of the automatic certificate issuing device for automatically issuing the bond, the storing operation is performed when the bond is stored in the storing cassette, and the type information of the bond to be stored in each cassette, for example, 10,000 bonds, Only the number of stored sheets of each applicable type, such as 5,000 tickets and 100,000 tickets, is registered.

Next, when issuing a bond, the bond is automatically paid out from the cassette stored for each type and the unique number assigned to the bond is read by an optical reading means or the like. When the read result is processed according to a certain calculation law and the result becomes a certain value, the bond issuance is validated and the bond is normally issued.

Note that, as a rule of operation, the bond management number has one digit for the check digit, and the sum of all the other digits plus the value of the one digit is 9 It is processed using the feature that it is arbitrarily assigned so that it can be divided by.

[0005]

However, according to the prior art having the above-mentioned structure, only the primary judgment is made based on the operation result of the read character, so that the optical reading means causes erroneous reading at the time of reading the character, In addition, if the result of the misreading becomes a value that is normal in the arithmetic processing, there will be a discrepancy between the issued physical management information and the information managed by the system, but the mismatch information will be checked by the system. Since there is no means to do so, there is a problem that reliable issue management cannot be performed.

In view of the above problems, the present invention obtains a method of monitoring the occurrence of inconsistency between the physical management information issued and the information managed by the system, and erroneously issues due to erroneous recognition and storage operation error. The purpose is to realize reliable issue management in the automatic certificate issuing device.

[0007]

In order to achieve the above object, the present invention checks the management information of the certificate at the time of issuance and the management information of the stored certificate. That is, a certificate automatically issued by storing a certificate to which management information is managed for each leaf or type is stored in the certificate storage unit in the apparatus, and the certificate is issued from the certificate storage unit according to the operation of the operator. In a certificate management system of a certificate automatic issuing device having a function and a certificate automatic storing function of automatically storing the certificate in the certificate storing section, when the certificate is automatically stored, management information of the certificate is optically stored. Read, recognize the management information of the document, store it in a file and store it, and at the time of automatic issuance of the certificate, issue the certificate from the certificate storage section and optically read the management information of the certificate. Recognize the management information of the document, match this management information with the management information stored in the file, and issue the certificate only if there is matching management information. It is characterized in.

At this time, at the time of automatically storing the certificate, it is preferable that the certificate is arbitrarily classified and stored based on the management information of the certificate.

[0009]

With the above arrangement, according to the present invention, when the certificate is automatically stored, in the process of storing the certificate in the certificate storing section of the apparatus, the management information of the certificate is optically read and the management information of the document is stored. Can be recognized and stored in a file for storage. When automatically issuing a certificate, the certificate stored as described above is fed out from the certificate storage unit, the management information of the certificate is optically read, and the management information of the document is recognized. With the management information stored in the file when the certificate is automatically stored, it is possible to monitor the occurrence of the discrepancy between the issued physical management information and the system-managed information.

Then, the issuance of the certificate can be validated only when there is matching management information. Further, when the certificate is automatically stored, if the certificate is arbitrarily classified and stored based on the management information of the certificate, the management information can be used to automatically store the certificate.
