Abstract

PURPOSE:To transmit the price of a commodity at the change of the price easily to a totalizing device, by providing each of plural terminals with a status flag to set up the existence of data sending and commodity price data sending and a commodity price setting area. CONSTITUTION:Electronic cash registers ECR1-3 are serially connected to a transmission line 5 and then connected to a totalizing device 4. The storage device in each ECT is provided with the status flag STF to set up the existence of data sending and commodity price data sending and a commodity price setting area. When registration is performed on the basis of the commodity price of the setting area, the commodity price is transmitted to the device 4 under the existence of commodity price data sending from the STF. When registration is performed on the basis of the changed commodity price, the changed commodity price is transmitted to the device 4 independently of the existence of the commodity price data sending from the STF. Consequently only the necessary data can be transmitted from each ECR to the device 4 and the data can be transmitted without fail at the change of the commodity price.

Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION [Technical Field of the Invention] The present invention relates to a product loss data processing system in which data registered at a plurality of terminals is aggregated by an aggregation device.

[Technical background of the invention and important points]

Conventionally, in systems that use an aggregation device to aggregate the data registered at multiple terminals, all registered data from each terminal is aggregated, resulting in the unreasonable accumulation of data that is unnecessary for data management. was there. In the so-called PLUf-roku, where the price and product number code of Kushihinka are preset, and the preset address is registered by specifying the PL and U (Price Look Arp) codes, all you need to know is the Utauri ma. Sales proceeds 111, etc. can be easily determined based on preset data and the number of sales. In such a system, there is no need for the data to be collected by a data collection device every time data is registered, and it is convenient for the user to be able to arbitrarily set whether or not data should be transmitted. However, in the m-hand device, it is necessary to preset all the data preset in each terminal in the same way, and when data is sent to each terminal, the preset data is sent to the accumulator, but when registering, If you change the pre-sensed single item price and add single item registration, the changed single item price will not be preset in one device in the nest, so if there is no transmission, the changed single item price, An irrational situation arises in which it becomes impossible to move at all.

[Aim of enlightenment]

This invention was made in view of the above circumstances, and it is possible to arbitrarily set the data transmission from each terminal to the aggregation device, and in particular, if there is a change in the price of a single item at the time of registering a single item, it is possible to set the transmission of data for the single item registration or not. This provides a parts sales data evacuation system that can transmit changed single item prices regardless of the relationship.

[M-rich invention] This invention provides a status flag for setting whether or not to send data to a plurality of terminals, and whether or not to send single item price data to each terminal. , and when registration is done based on the single item price in the single item price setting area, the result of that single item price #rt
Transmission to the device is performed based on the status flag setting of whether to send single item price data, and if the registration is based on the summer-recorded single item price, the transmission to the unit price aggregation device of the status flag is performed. This is done regardless of whether the price data is exited or not.
