Abstract

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To make it possible to quickly and accurately execute commodity registration at the time of changing a commodity sales price or the like by executing the commodity registration by selecting one of plural commodity price information data read out from a two-dimensional (2D) code and using a commodity sales price directly or indirectly found out from the selected commodity price information. SOLUTION: A 2D code 2DC directly storing plural price information data for each commodity is printed on a tag TG. One of plural price information data read out from the code 2DC by using a 2D code reading means is selected and commodity registration is executed by using a commodity price directly found out from the selected commodity price information. Consequently it is unnecessary to restick a tag TG at the time of changing a price or the like only by sticking a tag TG storing plural commodity price information data to the code 2DC and to change the setting of a commodity file.

Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to a method for directly or indirectly obtaining a selling price of a product from a tag attached to the product and directly or indirectly storing the price of the product using a product price information inputting means. The present invention relates to a merchandise sales data processing device formed to register merchandise.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art For example, in a merchandise sales data processing device comprising an electronic cash register, merchandise stored in a tag attached (attached) to merchandise using merchandise price information input means (scanner, keyboard, etc.). Price information is input (YES in ST40 of FIG. 9). The product price information includes a product sale price itself and, for example, a product code that indirectly represents the product sale price.

[0003] Therefore, in the case of direct product price information (product sales price), the product is registered in the sales file together with the quantity entered using the keyboard (ST43).
In the case of indirect product price information (product code), a product file is searched (ST42) to obtain a product selling price corresponding to the product code, and then the product is registered (ST43).

[0004] When a closing operation is performed as one transaction end declaration (YES in ST44), a total amount and a change amount are calculated and displayed, and an accounting process including automatic opening of a drawer and issuance of a receipt (ST45) is performed. Do.

[0005] Here, indirect product price information is often used for daily commodities, but when product price information is changed directly for each time period, such as a lunch box, the product price information is directly used. There are many. This is because tag replacement is relatively easy and can be performed by anyone, rather than rewriting product files that are technically and professionally difficult and setting errors are likely to occur. In addition, when the product file is in a higher-level device (such as a store controller) common to the electronic cash registers, the setting change work is more complicated and the processing time including the data communication time for executing the normal product registration is reduced. It is also to solve the problem of long.

[0006]

However, creating a tag on which the commodity price information is printed for each time zone and replacing the tag for all target commodities is, for example, expanding the spread of time-based services. Today, however, it is becoming increasingly difficult to admit that labor costs have to be reduced. Also,
Even if the user forgets to replace some of the pastings each time, the customer's credibility is lost.

Further, in order to improve customer service, a discount (discount) service for the selling price of the product is executed every day, when a plurality of products are purchased, or when a plurality of products are purchased in combination. It has been pointed out that obtaining the discounted product sales price causes a delay in processing, which is becoming a hindrance to the promotion of multifunctionality and acceleration of processing.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION An object of the present invention is to provide an easy-to-handle product sales data processing apparatus capable of quickly and accurately registering a product when changing a product sales price while eliminating setting errors and tag replacement operations. .

[0009]

According to a first aspect of the present invention, a selling price of a product is directly input from a tag attached to the product and directly or indirectly storing the price of the product by using product price information input means. Alternatively, in a product sales data processing device formed so as to indirectly obtain and register a product, the tag is printed with a two-dimensional code in which a plurality of product price information of the product is directly or indirectly stored. And the commodity price information input means is formed of two-dimensional code reading means capable of reading commodity price information from a two-dimensional code, and selects one commodity price information from a plurality of commodity price information read from the two-dimensional code. A product sales data processing device formed so that the product registration can be performed using a product sales price obtained directly or indirectly from possible and selected product price information. That.

In this invention, the commodity price information is read from the two-dimensional code of the commodity attachment tag using the two-dimensional code reading means forming the commodity price information input means. And 2
1 out of a plurality of product price information read from the dimension code
Select two product price information. The merchandise selling price is directly or indirectly obtained from the selected one merchandise price information and is registered using the information.

Therefore, if a tag in which a plurality of commodity price information are stored in a two-dimensional code is attached to a commodity once,
It is not necessary to replace the tag when the selling price is changed, and it is not necessary to change the setting of the product file. Therefore, it is possible to quickly and accurately register a product at the time of changing the product sales price while eliminating setting errors and tag replacement work, and the handling is easy.

[0012] The invention according to claim 2 is an article sales data processing apparatus in which selection data for selecting one of the article price information is stored in the two-dimensional code in association with the article price information. is there.

In this invention, since the selection data for selecting one of the plurality of commodity price information is stored in the two-dimensional code in association with the commodity price information,
One product information corresponding to the selected data can be read using the two-dimensional code reading means. Therefore,
In addition to providing the same operation and effect as the case of the first aspect of the present invention, it is possible to further quickly register goods and expand the applicable range of the tag.

[0014] Further, the invention according to claim 3 is characterized in that the selection data is for selecting a commodity price by time zone, selecting a commodity price by day, selecting a discount commodity price when purchasing multiple commodities, and selecting a discount commodity price when purchasing a combination of plural commodities. And a product sales data processing device that is at least one.

In this invention, the two-dimensional code of the tag is used for selecting a commodity price by time zone, selecting a commodity price by day, selecting a discount commodity price when purchasing a plurality of commodities, and selecting a discount commodity price when purchasing a combination of plural commodities. At least one selection data is stored. Therefore, in addition to providing the same operational effects as those of the inventions of claim 1 and claim 2, if a tag is created for each discount service, for example, merchandise registration at the service selling price can be performed more quickly. I can do it.

Further, the invention of claim 4 is a commodity sales data processing device in which the selection data is stored in a selection table on the main body side.

In this invention, one of a plurality of commodity price information read from the tag by the two-dimensional code reading means is selected using the selection data stored in the selection table on the main body side. Therefore, in addition to providing the same operation and effect as the case of the first aspect of the present invention, a large amount of commodity price information can be stored by the two-dimensional code of the tag, and various changes can be made only by switching the setting of the selection data on the main body side. Service can be implemented immediately.

The scanner 19 forms a commodity price information input means, and the keyboard 20 forms a commodity price information input means and various data input means.

The scanner 19 is a product G shown in FIG.
2D code reading means capable of reading commodity price information from the 2D code 2DC printed on the tag TG attached (attached) to the tag TG.

As the two-dimensional code 2DC, a so-called 1
Although a two-dimensional barcode in which a plurality of two-dimensional barcodes are arranged in parallel may be used, in this embodiment, the two-dimensional barcode is formed from a two-dimensional data code (2DC) having a cross shape shown in FIG.

In the first embodiment, the two-dimensional code 2DC includes, in the first embodiment, merchandise price information (“0220”, “0198”, “022”) that directly indicates the merchandise selling price.
0, "0198" and "0150"), as well as selection data ("0900-110") for selecting a commodity price by time zone.
0 "," 1100-1300 "," 1300-160 "
0 "," 1600-1830 "," 1830-200
0 ”) and the product code (“ 49123456890
4 ″) is stored. That is, the two-dimensional code 2D is stored.
In C, selection data for selecting one of the commodity price information is stored in association with the commodity price information. FIG.
The contents are added in the right column.

In addition to the above, at least one of the selection data is stored for selecting a daily sale price, selecting a discount sale price when purchasing a plurality of products, and selecting a discount sale price when purchasing a combination of a plurality of products. Further, the product price information is not limited to the product price directly obtained, but may be obtained indirectly. For example, it is a designated number for each commodity sale price stored in the discount price table.

Further, in this embodiment, for convenience of extracting one of the selection data, the RAM 13 is stored in the RAM 13 as shown in FIG.
Is provided so that the time (for example, "11:30") read from the clock circuit 14 can be stored and updated.

1, ROM 12) to extract one selected data belonging to a time zone corresponding to the time read from the specific data memory 13M, and is executed in ST12 of FIG.

Product price information reading control means (CPU 1
1, ROM 12) reads one item price information corresponding to the extracted selection data via the two-dimensional code reading means (19) (ST13).

Thus, the merchandise registration control means (CPU 1
1, the ROM 12) registers the product (ST17, ST18) using the product price based on the product price information as the selling price. If the product price information is a product code or the like that indirectly represents the product price (NO in ST14), the product file is searched for a unit price (ST15, ST16).

In the first embodiment having such a configuration, when a product (for example, “tofu”) is sold as a discount at each time zone, a tag TG shown in FIG. 2 is attached to the product G. The two-dimensional code 2DC of the tag TG includes a plurality of item price information (“0220”, “0198”, “022”).
0 "," 0198 "," 0150 ") and the corresponding selection data (" 0900-1100 "," 1100-130 ").
0 "," 1300-1600 "," 1600-183 "
0 "," 1830-2000 ") are stored, so that once the tag TG is pasted, the tag TG need not be replaced for each time zone.

The main unit (10) is set so that the "time" is updated and stored in the specific data memory 13M.

For example, 11:30 am (11:30)
Then, when the cashier reads and inputs the two-dimensional code 2DC printed on the tag TG of the product (“sakai”) using the two-dimensional code reading means (19) (YES in ST10 of FIG. 5), the specific data reading control means (11, 12) reads the time (11:30) from the specific data memory 13M (ST11).

Then, the selected data extraction control means (11,
12) is the specific data (1) from the plurality of selected data.
1: 30-1) corresponding to one selection data (1100-1)
300 ") is extracted (ST12). Subsequently, the commodity price information reading control means (11, 12) extracts (ST1).
2) Product price information ("0198") corresponding to the selected data ("1100-1300") is read (ST1).
3).

Thus, the product registration control means (11, 1)
2), since the product price information is information representing the product price itself (YES in ST14), the product price (“0198”) is converted to the product price per time zone (“$ 19”).
8 ") is registered (ST18).
9 and ST20 are the same as in the case of the conventional example (FIG. 9).

According to the first embodiment,
The two-dimensional code 2DC in which the tag TG directly (or indirectly) stores a plurality of pieces of price information on the product is printed and the two-dimensional code reading means (19) forming the product price information input means is provided. Using two-dimensional code 2
One product price information is selected from a plurality of product price information read from the DC, and product registration can be performed using a product sales price obtained directly (or indirectly) from the product price information. Therefore, if a tag TG in which a plurality of commodity price information is stored in the two-dimensional code 2DC is attached to the commodity once, it is not necessary to replace the tag TG when the selling price is changed and the setting of the commodity file is changed. Is no longer necessary. Therefore, it is possible to quickly and accurately register a product at the time of changing the product sales price while eliminating setting errors and tag replacement work, and the handling is easy.

Further, since the selection data for selecting one of the commodity price information is stored in the two-dimensional code 2DC in association with the commodity price information, the commodity can be registered more quickly and the tag application range can be further increased. Can be expanded.

Further, at least one of the two-dimensional code 2DC for selecting a commodity price per time zone, selecting a commodity price per day, selecting a discount commodity price when purchasing a plurality of commodities, and selecting a discount commodity price when purchasing a combination of plural commodities. Since the selection data can be stored, for example, if a tag TG is created for each discount service, merchandise registration at the service selling price can be performed more quickly.

Further, since the specific data memory 13M and the specific read control means (11, 12) are provided, the process of extracting the selected data can be simplified.

(Second Embodiment) In this embodiment, the basic configuration and functions are the same as those in the first embodiment, but the selection data is stored in the selection table 13T on the main unit side. .

That is, the two-dimensional code 2DC includes FIG.
As shown in FIG. 7, the product price information (“0220”, “019
8 "," 0220 "," 0198 "," 0150 ")
Are the designated addresses (“A11”, “A12”, “A1”).
3 "," A14 ", and" A15 "), and a product code (" 49123456678904 ") is stored in the designated address (" A1 ").

Here, in the selection table 13T provided in the main body side, that is, in the RAM 13 which constitutes a part of the control unit in the frame in this embodiment, selection data [("A1" ) "A11", "A12", "A
13 "," A14 "," A15 "] in each time zone [(" 0:00 to 24:00 ")" 9:00 to 11: 0 ".
0 "," 11:00 to 13:00 "," 16:00 to 1 "
8:30 ”,“ 18:30 to 20:00 ”] and, specifically, a flag for the time zone to which the time read from the clock circuit 14 belongs is set (“ 1 ”). , Reset ("0").

Therefore, since it is not necessary to store variable selection data in the two-dimensional code 2DC, a larger amount of commodity price information can be stored.

In the second embodiment having such a configuration, the selection data extraction control means (11, 12) determines the address (selection) at which the flag is set ("1") from the selection table 13T on the main unit side shown in FIG. Data) (ST3 in FIG. 8).
1) Yes.

If the current time read from the clock circuit 14 is, for example, 11:30, the flag set / reset control means (CPU 11, ROM 12) sets the time zone (0:00 to 24:00) and (11 : 00-13:
00) are set ("1"), so in this case, the addresses "A1" and "A12" are extracted.

Then, the commodity price information reading control means (1)
1, 12) is the commodity price information (“019”) corresponding to the extracted selection data (“A12”) (ST31).
8 ") is read (ST32). Thereafter, the product is registered (ST37) as in the case of the first embodiment.

Thus, according to the second embodiment,
Since the selection data is stored in the selection table 13T on the main body side, the same operation and effect as in the first embodiment can be obtained, and a large amount of commodity price information can be obtained by the two-dimensional code 2DC of the tag TG. A variety of services can be instantaneously implemented by only storing and switching the selection data on the main body.
