Description

Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a product sales data processing device such as an electronic cash register, a POS (point of sale information management) terminal shared by a plurality of stores.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art When a large number of stores are operating in a limited space such as a food store of a department store, one electronic cash register is shared by a plurality of stores. Therefore, it is often done to save the installation space of the electronic cash register.

However, when a conventional electronic cash register is shared by a plurality of stores, as in the case of being occupied by one store, sales registration processing of product sales data is performed by the electronic cash register. The total data of all transactions was totaled and output as a report.

Therefore, when one electronic cash register is shared by a plurality of stores, when trying to manage the sales for each store, the types of products to be sold are usually different between the stores. I had no choice but to handle this by outputting a sales summary report for each product, picking up the sales summary data of the products handled at my shop from that report, and totaling them by hand.

[0005]

In the conventional merchandise sales data processing apparatus shared by a plurality of stores as described above, a troublesome totaling work is required to manage the sales for each store, which cannot be easily dealt with. There was a problem.

Therefore, according to the present invention, when sales are shared by a plurality of stores, the sales for each store can be automatically managed, and the troublesome totaling work for obtaining the sales management data for each store can be dispensed with. It is intended to provide a data processing device.

[0007]

According to the present invention, when a single product code is entered by the code input means, the sales data of the coded product is registered in the storage unit, and the registration closing means performs one transaction. When the registration completion is declared, in the product sales data processing device that cumulatively processes the sales total data of all the products registered for sales in one transaction to the transaction sales totalizer, the products are sold corresponding to the individual product code of each product. A store code storage unit that stores in advance a store code that identifies a store, a plurality of transaction sales totalizers provided for each store, and a store each time a single product code is input by the code input means Store code reading means for reading the store code corresponding to the input single item code from the code storage section,
By the store code read out by this store code input means, the store confirmation means for confirming the sale store of all the products purchased in one transaction and the store confirmation means for selling each time the registration closing means declares the end of registration of one transaction A store-based transaction sales totalizer corresponding to a store confirmed as a store is provided with store-based sales management means for cumulatively processing the sales total data of all the products registered for sale in the one transaction.

[0008]

According to the present invention having such a configuration, the store code storage unit is preset with a store code for specifying the store where the product is sold, corresponding to the individual product code of each product. Further, a plurality of store-specific transaction sales totalizers are provided corresponding to the plurality of stores that share the product sales data processing device.

[0009] In this state, every time the individual code of all the products purchased in one transaction is input by the code input means, the sales data of the coded product is registered in the storage section and the store code is entered. The store code corresponding to the input single item code is read from the storage unit. Then, the read store code determines the sales stores of all the products purchased in one transaction.

After that, when the registration closing means declares the end of registration of one transaction, the sales total data of all the products registered for sales in the one transaction are cumulatively processed in the transaction sales totalizer, and the sales store is confirmed. The total sales data is cumulatively processed in the transaction sales totalizer for each store corresponding to the selected store.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS An embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings. In this embodiment, 3 stores a, b, c have 1
The case of sharing the electronic cash registers of the units will be described.

FIG. 1 is a block diagram showing a main configuration of an electronic cash register shared by three stores a, b, and c. This electronic cash register is a CPU (central processing unit) 1 as a control unit main body. Have.

The electronic cash register has a ROM (Read Only Memory) 2 in which a control program for the CPU 1 to control each unit is preset.
A storage unit for registering sales of merchandise sales data, a RAM for forming transaction sales totalizers for accumulating total sales data of all commodities registered in one transaction, etc.
(Access memory) 3, clock circuit 4 for timing the date and time, keyboard controller 6 for controlling keyboard 5, display controller 8 for controlling display 7, printer controller 10 for controlling printer 9, scanner interface to which scanner 11 is connected 12 and mode switch 1
An I / O port 16 for transmitting a drive signal to a drawer opening device 15 for inputting a signal from the device 3 and opening the drawer 14 is provided.

Then, the CPU 1, ROM 2, RA
The M3, the clock circuit 4, the keyboard controller 6, the display controller 8, the printer controller 10, the scanner interface 12 and the I / O port 16 are connected by a bus line 17.

The keyboard 5 is provided with various keys used in an ordinary electronic cash register such as a numeral key, a multiplication key, a subtotal key, a clear key, and a registration closing key. The registration closing key is a key for declaring the end of registration of one transaction and constitutes registration closing means.

The display 7 is for displaying the name, amount of money, total amount of one transaction, amount of change, etc. of the sale product,
A display screen is formed on each of the front surface and the back surface. Incidentally, the front display screen is for cashiers, and the rear display screen is for customers.

The printer 9 prints detailed data of products registered for sale, total detailed data of one transaction, etc. on roll-shaped receipt paper and journal paper, respectively. The receipt paper is discharged from the receipt issuing port, The journal paper is wound inside.

The scanner 11 optically reads a bar code, and each product has a bar code of a single code attached or printed. Here, the scanner 11 constitutes a code input means.

The mode switch 13 is for "register",
A switch for selectively selecting various work modes such as "inspection", "settlement", "setting", etc., which is switched by a key, for example.

Here, the "registration" mode is such that when a single product code is input by the code input means, sales data of the coded product is registered for sale in the storage unit, and one transaction is performed by the registration closing means. When the end of registration is declared, the total sales data of all the products registered for sales in the one transaction is cumulatively processed in the total sales counter.

The "inspection" mode is a task of printing data on the receipt paper by the printer 9 on the sales registration processing in the storage unit by the registration job and the data collected by the transaction sales totalizer, and issuing a report. . See also
What is a mode? After issuing a report similar to inspection work,
It is a task of clearing the storage contents of the storage unit and the transaction sales totalizer.

In the "setting" mode, the data necessary for executing various operations such as registration, inspection and settlement are stored in the RAM 3 in advance.
It is a task to set to.

FIG. 2 is a conceptual diagram showing a main memory area formed in the RAM 3. This R as shown
In AM3, a single product data file 2 as the storage unit
1 and total transaction sales total 2 as the total sales sales total 2
In addition to 2, there are three types of transaction sales totalizers 23a, 23b, 23c provided corresponding to each store a, b, c, and a total transaction area 2 for storing the total score and total amount of one transaction.
4, flag area 25 of flag F during registration, each store a,
A data area 26 for storing store management data A, B, C corresponding to b and c, a store code management table 27 described later, and the like are formed.

FIG. 3 shows a specific structure of the single item data file 21, which includes a single item code area 21a, a name area 21b, and a unit price area 2.
1c, each piece data setting area of the shop code area 21d, and areas 21e and 21f for accumulating the number of sales and the amount of sales for each piece code.

By the way, in the single product code area 21a, the stores a, b, c sharing the electronic cash register are shared.
The individual product code of all the products handled by is set. Name area 21b, unit price area 21c and store code area 21d
The name (commodity name), unit price, and store code of the corresponding product are set for each corresponding to the individual product code in the individual product code area 21a.

Here, the store code is a code for specifying at which store the product is sold. In this embodiment, the store code 1 is a product sold only at the store a, the store code 2 Is a product sold only in store b, store code 3 is a product sold only in store c,
Store code 4 is a product sold at stores a and b, store code 5 is a product sold at stores a and c, and store code 6 is a product sold at stores b and c. , Store code 7 is a product sold in store a, store b, and store c. Here, store code area 2
1d constitutes a store code storage unit.

The store code management table 27 is
As shown in FIG. 4, it is a table area created for each of the store codes 1 to 7 with data indicating a store as “1” and data indicating an unsold store as “0”.

Therefore, the CPU 1 is particularly "registered".
In the mode, the program is configured to appropriately execute the single item registration control shown in FIG. 5 and the registration closing control shown in FIG.

That is, when an operation of reading a single product code (bar code) by the scanner 11 is performed and the single product code data is taken in through the scanner interface 12, C
PU1 starts the single item registration control shown in FIG. And
First, the flag area 25 is checked, and the flag F being registered is “0”.
If it is reset to 1, the first item of the commodity purchased in one transaction is registered, so the flag F in the flag area 25 is set to "1". Also, data area 2
Clear 6 and the transaction total area 24.

Next, the single item file 21 is searched using the input single item code as a search key. Then, the single item code that matches the input single item code and the corresponding single item data of the name, unit price, and store code are read (store code reading means).

Next, the data a, b, c of the store code management table 27 corresponding to the store code in this single item data.
Read out. Then, the data a, b, c are set in the data area 26 as store management data A, B, C, respectively.

Next, in the unit price in the single item data, the sales point number (if the multiplier is entered by the numeric key and the multiplication key immediately before entering the single item code, the multiplier is entered. If not, "1" is entered. )) Is multiplied to calculate the sales amount, and the sales amount and the sales amount are added to the sales amount and the sales amount corresponding to the input single item code of the single item file 21.

The sales points and the sales amount are added to the total points and the total amount of money in the total transaction area 24. Furthermore, the name, unit price, number of sales, amount of sales, etc. of the single item data are displayed on the display 7, and the printer 9 prints out the receipt sheet and the journal sheet to end the control.

On the other hand, when the single item registration control is started and the registering flag F is set to "1" in the flag area 25, the second and subsequent items of the product purchased in one transaction are registered. The single item code that matches the code and the corresponding single item data of the name, unit price, and store code are read from the single item file 21 (store code reading means).

Next, the data a, b, c of the store code management table 27 corresponding to the store code in this single item data.
Read out. Then, the logical product (A ′ of each of the data a, b, c and the data A, B, C of the data area 26).
= A AND a, B ′ = BAND b, C ′ = C A
ND c) is calculated. If all of the results A ', B', C'are "0" as a result of this logical product, two or more items sold at different stores will be purchased in one transaction. Error in single item registration control.

If at least one of the logical product results A ', B', C'is "1", the logical product result A ',
B'and C'are stored in the data area 26 as store management data A,
Set as B and C respectively.

Thereafter, in the same manner as in the case of the registration of the first point, the sales number and the sales amount of the product are obtained, added to the sales number and the sales amount corresponding to the input single product code of the single product file 21, and the total transaction area 24 Add to the total points and total amount of. Further, the single item detailed data is displayed and printed, and the control is ended.

When the registration closing key of the keyboard 11 is input and the key signal of the registration closing key is fetched through the keyboard controller 6, the CPU 1 starts the registration closing control shown in FIG. Then, the flag area 25 is checked first, and when the registration flag F is reset to "0", the registration closing key has been operated even though product registration has not been performed, so this control is regarded as a key operation error. To finish.

When the registering flag F is set to "1" in the flag area 25, it means that the single product registration of the product purchased in one transaction has been declared. The sales store of the product purchased in this transaction is confirmed (store confirmation means).

If any one of the store management data A, B and C is "1" and the remaining two are "0", the product sold at the store corresponding to the data "1". Since it is determined that the transaction is the transaction, the total data of the total transaction area 24 is cumulatively processed in the total transaction sales totalizer 23a, 23b or 23c corresponding to the relevant store (sales management means by store). Further, the total data of the total transaction area 24 is also accumulated in the total transaction sales totalizer 22.

After that, the total data in the total transaction area 24 is printed out on the receipt paper and the journal paper by the printer 9, and when the receipt issuance and the automatic opening of the drawer 14 are controlled, this control is ended.

On the other hand, as a result of checking the data area 26, if two or more of the store management data A, B, and C are "1", a transaction in which only the products sold in two or more stores are purchased. Since it is not possible to confirm the sales store, display 7
Display a message prompting you to enter the store code. Then, using the numeric keypad of the keyboard 5, store code 1,
When any one of 2, 3 is key-inputted, the transaction sales totalizer by store 23a, 23 corresponding to the input store code
The total data of the transaction total area 24 is cumulatively processed in b or 23c. Further, the total data of the total transaction area 24 is also accumulated in the total transaction sales totalizer 22.

After that, the total data in the total transaction area 24 is printed out on the receipt paper and the journal paper by the printer 9, and when the receipt issuance and the automatic opening of the drawer 14 are controlled, this control is ended.

On the other hand, the CPU 1 is programmed so as to execute the report work shown in FIG. 7 particularly in the "check" mode and the "payment" mode.

That is, when the report output work of each transaction totalizer 22, 23a, 23b, 23c is selected by operating a predetermined key on the keyboard 5, the CPU 1 starts the report work shown in FIG. Then, first, the display 7 displays a message prompting the user to enter the store code. Then, when the store code 0 is keyed in by the numeric keypad of the keyboard 5, the report output of the total transaction sales totalizer 22 is instructed. Therefore, the printer 9 prints a receipt sheet based on the data of the total transaction sales totalizer 22. Print all transaction sales report and finish this operation.

On the other hand, when any one of the store codes 1, 2 and 3 is key-in, the report output of the transaction sales totalizer 23a, 23b or 23c for each store corresponding to the input store code is instructed. As a result, the printer 9 prints the transaction sales report for each store on the receipt paper based on the data of the corresponding transaction sales totalizer 23a, 23b, or 23c, and ends this operation.

In this embodiment having such a configuration, for example, when the customer who has shopped at the store a performs product registration at the electronic cash register, the product purchased by the customer is sold only at the store a. If even one item (store code = 1) is not included, the data (A, B, C) in the data area 26 will be (1, 0, 0) when the registration is closed, so it will be sold automatically. The store a is confirmed, and the total data of all the commodities purchased by the customer is cumulatively processed in the total transaction sales totalizer 22 and at the same time is cumulatively processed in the shop-specific transaction sales totalizer 23a.

Similarly, when the customer who has shopped at the store b registers the product with the electronic cash register, the product purchased by the customer is only 1 product (store code = 2) sold only at the store b. If it is also included in the points, the data (A, B, C) in the data area 26 is (0, 1, 0) when the registration is closed, so the sales store b is automatically determined and this customer purchases. The total data of all products
Store b at the same time as being accumulated in all transaction sales totalizer 22
Is cumulatively processed in the store-based transaction sales totalizer 23b.

When the customer who has shopped at the store c registers the product with the electronic cash register, one item (store code = 3) is the only product purchased by the customer that is sold only at the store c. However, if included, the data (A, B, C) in the data area 26 will be (0,
Since 0, 1), the sales store c is automatically determined, and the total data of all the products purchased by this customer is cumulatively processed in the total transaction sales totalizer 22 and at the same time, the transaction by store of the store c is performed. The sales totalizer 23c is cumulatively processed.

On the other hand, for example, when the customer who purchased only the product (product code = 7) sold at any of the stores a, b, and c is registered in the electronic cash register, the registration is closed. Since the sales store cannot be confirmed automatically, key in the store code corresponding to the sales store. By doing so, the total data of the customer is cumulatively processed in the transaction sales totalizer 23a, 23b, or 23c for each store corresponding to the sales store.

Therefore, the transaction sales totalizers 23a, 2 for each store
3b or 23c respectively correspond to stores a, b,
Sales data of the products sold in c are totalized and managed. Since the storage contents of the transaction sales totalizer for each store 23a, 23b, or 23c can be separately output as a report by selecting the report business, the sales management data for each store can be easily acquired.

In addition, when one electronic cash register is shared by a plurality of stores, the types of products to be sold are different between the stores, so that the store to be sold cannot be automatically determined when registration is closed. Rare and in most cases determinable. Therefore, the operation procedure of the cashier at the time of registration work is almost the same as the conventional one, and there is no possibility that the operation becomes complicated and the processing efficiency is lowered.

In the above embodiment, the case where one electronic cash register is shared by three stores has been shown, but it goes without saying that the present invention is not limited to this.

Further, in the above embodiment, the single item file is provided in the RAM 3 having a built-in electronic cash register. However, it is provided in the storage device of the host computer externally connected through the communication line, and the corresponding single item data is obtained every time the individual item registration is performed. May be inquired to the host computer.

Besides this, various modifications can be made without departing from the scope of the present invention.

[0056]

As described in detail above, according to the present invention, a store code storage section for storing in advance a store code for identifying a store in which a product is sold corresponding to a single product code of each product is provided, and A plurality of transaction sales totalizers for each store are provided corresponding to each store, and each time a single product code is input by the code input means, the store code corresponding to the input single product code is read from the store code storage unit, and 1 is read by this store code.
Establish stores for all products purchased in the transaction. Then, when the registration closing means declares the end of registration of one transaction, the total sales data of all the products registered for the one transaction are displayed in the sales totalizer for each store corresponding to the confirmed store. Since cumulative processing is performed, sales by store can be automatically managed without loss of operability when shared by multiple stores, and troublesome aggregation to obtain sales management data by store It is possible to provide a product sales data processing device that can eliminate the work.
