Abstract

PURPOSE:To output the transaction data of an arbitrary operator at any time by a manager by outputting the transaction data stored in a storage means corresponding to the operator designated by a designating means when input information comes from the manager. CONSTITUTION:When a key 5 for manager is inserted to the device, a main control part 2 waits the input of an ID code and decides whether the inputted ID code is the same as the ID code previously registered on a ROM 1 or a RAM 15. When those ID codes coincide with each other, the input of designating which transaction data of an operator is to be printed out among the transaction data of respective operators is awaited. This designating input is performed by utilizing the ten-key, number key and NOSALE key of a register numbered key part. The inputted operator numbers are stored in the prescribed area of the RAM 15 in the input order, and the transaction data stored in the transaction data table in the input order corresponding to the operator numbers are read out and sent to a print control part 13 so as to be printed out by a printer 14 together with the operator numbers.

Description

Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

FIELD OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to electronic cash registers.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Electronic cash registers currently used in sales floors of small retail stores such as superstores are used by a plurality of operators in turn. Therefore, the transaction data can be stored for each operator so that the transaction data for each operator can be confirmed as proposed in Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 56-47854.

[0003]

In the device proposed in the above publication, since the storage medium such as a semiconductor memory was expensive at the time, only the transaction data for one operator could be stored, and the operator changed every time. It was necessary to print out the transaction data of the previous operator and clear the stored contents. However, at present, the storage medium is cheap, and it becomes easy to store transaction data of a plurality of operators at the same time, and electronic cash registers having such a configuration have become common.

However, in this type of device, in order to print out the stored transaction data for each operator, there is no choice but to output the data of all the operators in a special mode of inspection, and such inspection. In mode, all the data is cleared after the data is output, so if you inspect during the day, you will have to recreate the total data for the day.

It is determined which is G, and the result is determined by the bus (3)
To the main control unit (2).

Reference numeral (5) is an input control section, which determines the type of the key pressed in the input section (7) and sends the result to the main control section (2) via the bus (3). Inform. As shown in FIG. 2, the input unit (7) is a numeric key unit (8) including a numeric keypad and a calculation key, a product type key unit (9) for inputting a product type, and a report key (10).
And a NOSALE key (11) for instructing the end of a series of key inputs and a number key (12).

(13) is a print control unit, (14) is, for example, a wire dot type printer, and the print control unit (1
Under the control of the main control section (2), 3) prints the data sent via the bus (3) by the printer (14).

(15) is a RAM consisting of a semiconductor random access memory, which is used as a work area during the control operation of the main control section (2), and which has the transaction data table (16) and the transaction data table (16) shown in FIG. It has an operator correspondence table (17) shown in FIG. Transaction data table (1
In 6), transaction data is stored corresponding to each operator number that identifies each operator. The transaction data includes product type, quantity, unit price, total and operator transaction total. An operator number is stored in the operator correspondence table (17) in association with each of the operator keys A to P described above.

Next, the operation of the apparatus of this embodiment will be described.

Now, one operator inserts a key possessed by himself into the apparatus in order to carry out a normal accounting process, and the product type, the number, and the unit price are set in accordance with the transaction by the number key section (8) and the product type key. When input using the key of the section (9), the main control section (2) outputs the operator number based on the output from the key determination section (4) indicating the type of the key and the data of the operator table (17). The input data described above is stored in the product type column, the number column and the unit price column of the transaction data table (16) corresponding to this operator number, and the total value is calculated based on this number and unit price data. Store the result in the total column. In addition, the total amount of money stored in the total column corresponding to each operator is stored in the operator transaction total column. The input data is the transaction data table (16) as described above.
And stored in the printer and output in a known receipt format by the printer (14).

On the other hand, when the manager key MG is inserted into the apparatus, the main control section (2) executes the control operation shown in the flowchart of FIG.

In step S1, waiting for the input of the ID code, the input ID code is previously stored in the ROM (1) or RA.
It is determined whether it is the same as the ID code registered in M (15). Specifically, the ID code is performed by pressing the report key (10) after inputting a numeric string of a predetermined number of digits using the numeric keypad of the numeral key unit (8), and the input control unit (6) according to this operation. The main control unit (2), which has received the output numerical string and the information indicating the pressing of the report key (10), is executed by comparing the previously registered ID code with the input numerical string. If it is determined that they are not the same in this determination, the error processing is executed in step S7, and the post-processing is ended. On the other hand, if it is determined that they are the same, the process proceeds to step S2.

In step S2, an input for designating which operator's transaction data is to be printed out among transaction data of each operator in the transaction data table (16) is awaited. This designation input is made by using the numeric keypad, the number key (12) and the NOSALE key (11) of the numerical keypad (8). As an example, the operator number is 00,02,03
And 0, 0, 0, #, 0, 2, #, #, 0, 9, #, NOSAL
Press the keys in the order of E. This operation procedure basically specifies one operator by inputting the number key (12) after inputting the two-digit operator number indicating the operator who desires output, and making such designation. Specify multiple operators by repeating. Moreover, the end of this designated operation is NOS.
Based on pressing of the ALE key (11). In the above example,
There are places where the number keys (12) are continuous,
This indicates that the operator number "03" consecutive to the operator number "02" designated by the previous number key (12) is designated.

The operator number input in step S3 is stored in a predetermined area in the RAM (15) in the order of input.

In the subsequent step S3, the number of operator numbers stored in the predetermined area of the RAM (15) in step S2 is retrieved, and the number is set as the number n of operators in RAM (1
The counter value CNT set in the RAM (15) while being set to 5) is set to "1". This counter value CN
As will be apparent from the description below, T indicates the number of processed operator numbers among the operator numbers stored in the predetermined area of the RAM (15) in step S2.

In step S4, RAM in step S2
Of the operator numbers stored in the predetermined area of (15), the Cth
A print control unit (13) for reading out the transaction data stored in the transaction data table (16) corresponding to the operator number stored in the NTth position, and printing out with the printer number (14) together with the operator number. Send to.

When the output in step S4 ends, S
In 5 steps, the counter value CNT is incremented by "1", and in the subsequent S6 step, whether or not the counter value CNT exceeds the number n of operators, that is, RA in S2 step.
It is determined whether the transaction data stored in the transaction data table (16) corresponding to all the operator numbers stored in M (15) has been printed out. If it is determined in this determination that the output of all the designated data has been completed (CNT> n), the process ends. At this time, it is preferable to erase all the operator numbers stored in the RAM (15) in step S2. On the other hand, if "CNT <n" is determined, the process proceeds to step S4 to output the next data.
