In addition, in order to input the person in charge, the person in charge is displayed in a table format on the matrix key, and the person in charge is displayed from the POS terminal by touching the key displaying the person in charge. Is entered.

FIG. 3 shows a POS of a conventional POS system.
An example of the configuration of a terminal device is shown. POS terminal is CPU
The information is exchanged with the POS main body on the center side via 1. The keyboard 2 is used for key input of various numerical information, symbol information, and the like, and the input information is sent to the CPU 1. The sales item touch panel key 3 displays the name of the sales item on the surface of each of the matrix keys, and the sales item information is sent to the CPU 1 by touching the key of the sold item. The person in charge touch panel key 4
The names of persons in charge who may perform operations at the store are displayed on the front of each of the keys arranged in a matrix. This person-in-charge name is registered in the person-in-charge registration memory 7 in advance, and the registered person name information is read out via the CPU 1 and displayed on the person-in-charge touch panel key 4. C
The POS information processed by the PU 1 is displayed on a display device or output to a printer and printed out.

As described above, in the conventional person display method,
The name of a person in charge who can handle the POS terminal as an operator at the store is registered in advance, and the registered person's name is displayed on the person in charge touch panel key.

However, there is no problem when the number of persons in charge is small, but in the case of a large store, the number of persons in charge is large, and when including part-time workers and part-time workers, the number may be very large. . Normally, each key of the person in charge touch panel key needs to display the person in charge, so it has a relatively large area compared to the key on the keyboard, and the number of persons displayed on one screen is limited. In order to display a large number of personnel all, you have to cover multiple screens. Therefore, despite the fact that the number of persons who frequently operate the POS terminal is limited,
All registered person names must be displayed on a plurality of screens, and if a person not first displayed on the screen operates, the operability deteriorates. Such a problem is not limited to the POS system, but is a problem common to a system that displays a person in charge name on a touch panel key.

[0007]

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION It is therefore an object of the present invention to provide a person in charge display system in which the name of the person in charge is efficiently displayed on a touch panel key and operability is improved.

[0008]

In order to solve the above-mentioned problems, a person-in-charge display system according to the present invention is arranged such that information to be processed is inputted and a person-in-charge name is inputted through a touch panel. In a person in charge display method in which names are displayed on the touch panel, a person who is attending the office among predetermined persons is preferentially displayed on the touch panel.

According to another embodiment of the present invention, the information to be processed is input, the name of the person in charge is input via a touch panel, and the name of the person in charge is displayed on the touch panel. In this case, a person in charge of going to work among predetermined persons is preferentially displayed on the touch panel.

[0010] Here, each time the information of the attending staff is generated, the names of the staff who attended are sequentially displayed, and among the displayed staff, the display of the names of the staff who left is sequentially erased. In addition, the information of the person in charge of work can be obtained from time card information.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS FIG. 1 is a block diagram showing a configuration of an embodiment of a person in charge display system according to the present invention. In FIG. 1, components denoted by the same reference numerals as those in FIG. 3 have basically the same functions. Key input information from the keyboard 2, sales item information from the sales item touch panel key 3, and clerk information from the clerk touch panel key 4 are CP
It is input to U1 and sent to the POS body. The POS information processed by the CPU 1 is output to a display device or a printer.

In this embodiment, the person in charge and the person who left the company are managed by the person in charge and withdrawal management unit 5. This management can be performed based on time card information sent from the time card. The CPU 1 gives priority to, for example, persons who have gone to work, and gives priority to persons who have gone to work earlier, based on the attendance information and leave information of the person in charge sent from the person in attendance / departure management unit 5. Display it on the person in charge touch panel key. That is, the name of the priority person in charge is displayed on the first screen of the person in charge touch panel key 4. Further, the names of persons in charge who have come to work may be sequentially displayed on the person in charge touch panel key 4, or the names of persons in charge who have left may be sequentially deleted. The person in charge of operating the POS terminal is only the person who is working, and the person who has not been at work at this time does not operate the POS terminal. For example, normally, the name of the person in charge can be displayed only on the first screen, which improves operability.

FIG. 2 is a block diagram showing the configuration of another embodiment of the present invention. In the present embodiment, a staff attendance schedule data memory 6 for storing attendance schedule data of the staff in place of the staff attendance management unit 5 shown in FIG. Since the only person who operates the POS terminal is the person who has come to work, there is no need to display the absentee who is not going to work as the person in charge on the person in charge touch panel key 4, and only the person who is going to work is displayed preferentially. Efficient operation is possible. This attendance schedule data may be registered in advance by key operation, or data stored in another data bank may be used.
