Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] [Outline] When a group has a meal, a terminal device installed in a restaurant or the like is settled with a single slip, and therefore it cannot be settled for each individual, and when taxed, extra However, it is possible to settle each individual, improve the service, and enable accurate tax reporting.

[Industrial application field]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a terminal device used in a restaurant or the like, and more particularly to a payment method in a terminal device that allows individual payment when a plurality of people have a group meal.

In recent years, it has become popular to collect point-of-sale information using a POS terminal device.For example, in a POS terminal device placed in a restaurant or the like, a plurality of people can eat together as a group. When the payment is made by the customer, the total amount of each slip is settled.

By the way, each person may pay the fee even if he / she eats in a group, but it is necessary that no inconvenience occurs at this time.

[Prior art] Conventional POS terminal devices settle bills on a slip-by-slip basis and if the total amount divided by the number of people exceeds 2500 yen, 10% tax is levied and the settlement amount is printed on a receipt. There is.

[Problems to be solved by the invention]

When a group of people eat at a restaurant or the like, one slip is usually given to the group. However, in the conventional POS terminal device, since the fee is settled on a slip-by-slip basis as described above, the total amount of money for all menus written on this slip is settled.

Therefore, this method cannot deal with the case where each person in the group pays the fee individually according to the menu that he / she has eaten.

Also, if the total price divided by the number of people exceeds 2500 yen,
Unconditional 10% taxation will result in the payment of extra taxes. That is, for example, when two people A and B have a meal,
If B is 2000 yen and B is 2000 yen, the total for two people will be 5500 yen, and since the per person charge will exceed 2500 yen, the taxable amount will be 550 yen.

However, when paying each person separately, A is 3500 yen, so the taxable amount is 350 yen, and B is tax-free. For this reason, there is a problem that if you pay the group fee, you will end up paying an extra tax of 200 yen.

[Means for solving problems]

In view of such problems, the present invention attaches to one slip,
In addition to the conventional one-time payment, a menu for payment can be selected so that payment can be made for an individual.

FIG. 1 is a block diagram of the principle of the present invention.

The control means 1 assigns an index number after storing the details of the menu input at the time of creating the slip and the total transaction amount in the storage means 3. Therefore, when the customer brings a voucher and makes a payment, the control means 1 reads the corresponding menu and transaction amount from the storage means 3 and displays them on the display means 5 with the index number input from the input means 2.

When the individual settlement is instructed from the input means 2, the control means 1 reads out the individual settlement instruction function 4 stored in the storage means 3, and operates according to the instruction of the individual settlement instruction function 4 as follows.

That is, the erased cursor is displayed on the display means 5, and the cursor is moved to the position of the menu designated by the input means 2. Then, when the selection is instructed, the selected menu is highlighted, for example, and the amount of money is stored in the storage means 3, and the cursor is moved to the next menu according to the instruction of the input means 2. In this way, the sum of the menu prices sequentially instructed is stored in the storage unit 3, and when the settlement is instructed, the integrated total amount is subtracted from the transaction amount stored in the storage unit 3, and then taxation or The service charge and the like and the change such as change calculation are settled and stored in the storage means 3 and displayed on the display means 5.

When there is a balance in the amount subtracted from the transaction amount at the time of settlement, the control means 1 continues the cursor display, waits for the next cursor movement instruction from the input means 2, and in the same manner as above,
When the total amount of the menus instructed to be selected is summed and the settlement is instructed, the total amount is subtracted from the transaction amount, and then the settlement operation is repeated. When the balance becomes zero, the printing means 6 is controlled, The settlement contents stored in the storage unit 3 are printed on a receipt and a journal.

[Action]

With the above configuration, when the control means 1 is instructed to perform the individual settlement by the input means 2, the control means 1 displays the contents of individual settlement from one slip according to the instruction of the individual settlement instruction function 4 stored in the storage means 3. Since it is possible to display on the display means 5 and to print on the receipt and the journal by the printing means 6, it is possible to present the settlement amount for each individual of the group, and it is possible to prevent extra tax from being added. I can.

〔Example〕

FIG. 2 is a block diagram of a circuit showing an embodiment of the present invention.
FIG. 3 is a flow chart for explaining the operation of FIG.

The processor 7 starts the operation by reading the initial setting program from the ROM 8 and stores the program in the RAM 9 from the disk 16 via the port 15. At this time, the individual settlement instruction program 10 for instructing individual settlement is also stored at the same time.

The processor 7 monitors the contents input from the reader 21 via the port 20 as shown in FIG. 3 based on the instructions of the program stored in the RAM 9, and the reader 21 reads the slip created by the customer's order. Then, the menu details and transaction amount are stored in RAM9, and an index number is assigned.

Also, the processor 7 monitors the index number entered from the keyboard 12 via the port 11, and when the index number is entered from the keyboard 12, the menu details and transaction amount of the slip selected by this index number are read from the RAM 9. It is read and displayed on the display 19 via the port 17.

The processor 7 continues to receive the input from the keyboard 12
As shown in the figure, it is checked whether payment is made, and if payment is instructed, tax is added, service charges are added, change is calculated, etc. based on the transaction amount of the voucher, and port 13 is set as usual. Then, it is sent to the linter 14 to print the receipt and the journal.

Then, the printer 14 is caused to discharge the receipt, and the drawer 18 is controlled via the port 17 to store the charge.

When the processor 7 is instructed by the keyboard 12 in FIG. 3 for individual settlement instead of payment, the processor 7 reads the individual settlement instruction program 10 in the RAM 9 and, based on the instructions of this program, displays the cursor erased on the display 19. Then, in accordance with an instruction from the keyboard 12, this cursor is moved to a designated position in the displayed menu.

Then, when the selection is instructed, the selected menu is highlighted, for example, and the amount of money is stored in the RAM 9. However, if the menu has the same content such as "Coffee 3" and the number is plural, the keyboard 12 The number is subtracted in accordance with the input of the number following the selection instruction from, and when three are selected, they are highlighted.

The processor 7 moves the cursor to the position of the next menu according to the instruction of the keyboard 12, and when the selection is instructed, the same control is performed as described above. In this way, the sum of the amounts of the menus sequentially instructed is stored in the RAM 9, and the keyboard 12
When the payment is instructed from, the total amount of the menu selected so far is subtracted from the transaction amount stored in RAM9, and then taxation, service charges, etc. are added, and change is calculated. It is stored in and displayed on the display 19.

If there is a balance in the amount subtracted from the transaction amount at the time of the above settlement, the processor 7 continues to display the cursor, waits for the next cursor movement instruction entered from the keyboard 12, sums up the amounts in the menu instructed to select, and performs the settlement. When instructed,
Repeat the same operation as above, after deducting the total amount from the transaction amount, and when the balance becomes zero, send the settlement contents stored in RAM 9 to the printer 14 via port 13 and send the receipt and journal. Make it print.
