Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] [Technical Field of the Invention] The present invention relates to the improvement of electronic cash registers. Conventionally, in electronic cash registers, for example, the data for each item registered in the registration mode can be inspected and printed out in the payment mode. By doing so, only the number of items sold and the sales amount were printed out on the receipt. However, this made it impossible to immediately know which items sold and how much they sold.

[Purpose of the Invention] This invention was made in order to eliminate such drawbacks, and provides an electronic cash register that allows you to immediately grasp the sales status of each item from the contents printed out at the time of inspection and checkout. The purpose is to

[Summary of the Invention] This invention accumulates and totals product sales amounts and sales points by at least individual items or departments in the registration mode, and prints the cumulative data for each item or department on paper using a dot printer in the inspection and settlement mode. In electronic cash registers that are printed out sequentially, the number of dots corresponding to one digit is used as one pattern for the bar graph, and the standard amount or standard score corresponding to that pattern is set, and the number of dots corresponding to one digit is set as a standard amount or standard score. Every time the cumulative data is printed out, the sales amount or number of sales points for each item or department is divided by the set standard amount or number of points, and the number of print dots corresponding to the sales amount or number of sales points is calculated as the number of print dots. This converts numbers into dot print data and outputs it to a dot printer.

A ROM 14 and a printer drive circuit 16 for driving the printers 1 to 5 are connected to the PU 9. The main CPU reads program data from the ROM 5 based on signals from the control keys 12 and the keyboard 11, and controls each section based on the program program. As shown in Figure 12, the RAM 6 contains the PLU code, product name, unit price, sales quantity, and '! 1. Single item registration memory 61 for storing the amount, for example, standard setting memory 62 for setting ioooo yen as the standard amount, total sales amount cumulative memory 63, total sales points cumulative memory 64, print buffer memory 65, and display. A buffer memory 66 and the like are provided. The keyboard 11
is provided with a number key 17, a PLU key 18, a subtotal key 19, a deposit/cash total key 20, and a reference amount key 21, respectively. The control key 12 is used to specify a business mode, such as registration mode, inspection mode, payment mode, setting mode, etc. A character generator for dot printing data is formed in the ROM 14, and the sub CPU 9 converts the input EA]-code into dot printing data by controlling the ROM 1'4. This dot print data is then supplied to the printer drive circuit 16.

When the control key 12 specifies the registration mode, the main CPU reads the corresponding PLLI code from the single item registration memory 61 of the RAM 6 when a PLLJ code is input using the numeric key 17 and the PLU key 18 on the keyboard 11. The product name and unit price are read out and stored in the print buffer memory 65, the unit price is added and stored in the corresponding price area of the single product registration memory 61, and 1 is added to the sales quantity area. Then, such single item registration is repeated for each item. The main CP, U
1 calculates the total of the data registered for each item for one customer and stores it in the display buffer memory 66 when there is the key of the subtotal key 19. Then, when the deposited amount from the customer is entered using the number key 17 and the deposit/account key 20 is manually pressed, the total amount is subtracted from the deposited amount and the changed amount is stored in the funeral display sofa memory 66.

Further, the main CPU 1 particularly performs the processing shown in FIG. 3 when the inspection and settlement mode is designated. That is, first, the data in the single item registration memory 61 is transferred to the PLU.
Read the code in order. This reads the PLU code, product name, and unit price, outputs them to the print buffer memory 65, and prints them out using the printer 15. Next, the number of sales and the amount of money are read out and outputted to the print buffer 65, and then printed by the printer 15. Next, the sales amount is divided by 10,000 yen stored in the standard setting memory 62.

As a result, if A remains B, then B is the standard amount 1
Divide 0000 yen by 1000 yen shifted by one digit.

As a result, when the remainder C becomes D, the number of print digits is returned to zero. Next, check if A=O, and if A=O, it will be 1
Dot number data for one pattern is stored in the print buffer memory 65 using an EA code. Next, the number of print digits is shifted by one digit, and the contents of A are shifted by one. If the number of print digits is not 22, the contents of the print buffer memory 65 are output to the sub CPU 9 and the printer 15 is output.
Print it out. At this time, the printing of one pattern of drums 1 to 1 is as shown in Fig. M4.

Such processing is performed until A becomes zero. And A
When =O, then whether D≧500 or not is multiplied by the number of Checkune dots. For example, if C=5, an EA code with a dot pattern as shown in FIG. 6 is stored in the print buffer memory 65.

Then, it is printed out by the printer 5.

Therefore, for example, when A=2 and C=5, a dot pattern as shown in FIG. 7 is obtained, and a bar graph is obtained based on this dot pattern.

In the embodiment of the present invention having such a configuration, for example, if a take as shown in FIG. 2 is stored in the single item registration memory 61, cash registers 1 to 1 shown in FIG. 8 will be obtained at the time of inspection and payment. In other words, PLU code 81 product name b1 unit price C is in one line pudding 1~, sales number d1 sales amount e is next 1
A bar graph f is printed on the next line. And the cumulative data of such single items is Pudding 1~
A bar graph is printed every time a product is sold, so if you look at the inspection or sales receipt, you can immediately know the sales status of each item at a glance.

In addition, in the above embodiment, the sales amount for each single item is shown as a bar graph, but the present invention is not limited to this. good. In this case, a standard score may be set instead of the standard price, and the number of sales points for each item may be divided by the standard score.

[Effects of the Invention] As described in detail above, according to the present invention, it is possible to provide an electronic cash register that can immediately grasp the sales status of each item based on the contents printed out at the time of inspection and settlement. be.
