Abstract

PURPOSE:To perform the correct control for unmanned sale of commercial goods at night by printing later the sale information on the customer number, the department name of each article, the quantity sold, etc. which are dropped out at first on a slip without setting the slip to a slip printer. CONSTITUTION:In the case of the unmanned sale of commercial goods, a customer card is inserted 6 into an oil feed machine 1 to read out the customer number. A hose 8 is removed from a hook 9 in accordance with the message of a message display device 5. Then the oil is fed and the fed quantity of oil is displayed 4. An electronic cash register ECR2 reads the customer number, the department name of each article and the quantity sold to perform a credit sale. No slip is set to a slip printer of the ECR2, and the department name, the quantity, the amount of money and the number of lines are printed continuously on a continuous receipt. In the following morning, a clerk sets a slip for the customer of the last night and changes a mode switch 13 to the typewriter mode from the night registration mode. Then the clerk performs type input 12 while looking at the data printed at night and produces a slip. Thus an accurate unmanned credit sale is attained.

Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION [Technical Field of the Invention 1] This invention relates to a product sales processing system used, for example, at a gas station.

[Technical use of the invention and its problems] For example, at a gas station, etc., the sales and deposits of customers who sell on credit are recorded in a ledger for each customer, and the total sI amount is added at the end of the month. Some companies have a system in which they mail it to each customer.

Conventionally, the product sales processing system used in such places has been equipped with an electronic cash register equipped with a slip printer that prints on the forms, and the cash register is usually installed at a refueling station in a place called an island. When a credit sales customer comes to the store with a magnetic card, the device is connected inline, and when a customer comes to the store with a magnetic card, the customer's bill is searched from a file and sent to a slip printer, and the cart is read by a card reader.When the refueling sale is completed, the refueling data is retrieved. At the same time as registering, print the data on a form using a slip printer, and print the first sheet and di-V-
There is one that prints on the card and issues cashier 1~.

By the way, during the busy daytime, it is a tedious task to search for forms from customer files and print them on the slip printer. It is also desired that fuel be sold unmanned at night. This can be done by making it possible to sell fuel by having a magnetic card read by a nozzle reader without having to set a form in a slip printer. However, if you do this, data will be missing from the form,
A problem arises in which a correct form with all data printed cannot be obtained at the time of payment at the end of the month, etc.

[Purpose of the Invention] This invention was made to solve these problems, and allows for credit sales to customers without having to set a form on a slip printer. To provide a product sales processing system that can print on a form and create a correct form.

Another object of this invention is to provide a product sales processing system that, when a form is exchanged, sends the same message to the previous form and a new form, and takes correspondence between the two to ensure reliable form management. shall be.

[Summary of the Invention j This invention allows the sale of a product using a customer number input from a card reader, and after the sale of the product is completed, the category, quantity, amount, etc. of the product are captured and accumulated in a storage device. At least the quantity is printed on the cash register 1~ with a printer, and at least the quantity is printed on the form that has been sent to the slip printer in advance.
In a product sales processing system that prints department names, amounts, and intermediate totals, the number of lines to be printed on a form is
A line counter is provided to print the number of lines to be printed on the form, and when a form is not set in the slip printer, J3 is used to print the number of lines to be printed on the form, and the contents of the previous line counter are printed in the cash register 1. 1, and then set the form on the slip printer later! It is equipped with a typewriter-like function that sends data to Printer 1 only on the form, and at that time, by key-inputting the number of lines in the cash register -1~, the form can be fed to that line. .

In addition, this invention prints a message that prints a message that crosses one color on a new document when Print 1- is performed on a document up to a certain line, and when a new document is set, the same message is printed on that document. Messages are printed and correspondence is made between forms.

If the KD key 23 is input, the customer number file is searched, and if there is a customer number, the form is fed to the number of lines on the line counter, and the customer sales flag 57 is set to ``-''. If the data is from a magnetic card, check the customer number file, and if there is a customer number, then check the contents of the limit amount area to see if the amount is limited. Check. Check if the limit is 1 or higher (Pull the button to read the number of lines on the line counter and set the transmission flag C60.
Sera i ~. Also, if the limit is set to 1, the transmission flag 859 is set to 1. Furthermore, if there is no number in the customer number tour, the transmission flag A58 is set to 1. Then, based on the contents of each transmission flag, a message is sent to the message display buffer 52 from cell 1 to the fuel supply device 1. When the sales data is input via the input buffer 47 or the transmission buffer 5G, the customer beer flag 57 is next checked, and if it is set to 1 to 1, the print 1 process of the slip printer 17 is performed.

Also, sales flag 57 is not set to Sera 1 (if you pull it, this 9!! logic will not work).

Subsequently, receipt and journal print 1 processing is performed, and then memory processing is performed. The memory processing at this time is a cumulative totaling process for the department G1 unit 49, transaction-specific totalizer 50, and customer-specific order S1 unit 51. The print 1 process of the slip printer 17 in this main process is performed based on FIG. That is, first check whether the line counter is zero or not, and if it is zero, the header line printer 1

As shown in Figure 1A, print the exchange message rcONTINUEJ, print the customer number and intermediate total, backfeed the form, and use the lamp provided on the display 11 to request a new form. indicate. Then, the slip detector 43 checks whether a new form has been set, and if a new form is sent to the cellar 1, the same exchange message as the previous form is sent to the new form as shown in Fig. 13b-a. Print. Then set the line counter to 1.

Further, the CPU 29 performs typewriter processing based on FIG. 8 when the mode changeover switch 13 is in the evening/event writer mode. In other words, number key 18, K
Enter the customer number and line number using the D key 23 and CD key 24. At this time, check whether the customer number is in the file or not, and check whether the line number is from 0 to A-6. If the input is correct, it will feed the form up to the number of input lines.Next, check whether the number of manual lines is O or 46.If it is U rOJ.''
- After performing the header line printing process described above,
Line feed and increase the number of human lines by 1. Also "46"
If so, the contents of the line counter are read out and the exchange message is processed.

Then, check whether the intermediate total is pudding 1~'A psycon and whether there is any additional registration, and if there is no additional registration with the intermediate total option (if Do not print the intermediate total from print 1.Next, check whether the line counter is "1" or not, and if it is "1", set the line counter to [Oj, and if it is not "1", backfeet the form and create a new one. Request a form and set the line counter to ``1''.Furthermore, if the number of incoming lines is neither ``O'' nor ``46'', check whether the first line is to be printed. If it is the 1st line, feed the sales data to Pudding 1 and feed 1 line, and add 1 to the number of input lines.Also, if it is Pudding 1 on the 1st line (if it is pulled, it is determined that it is the 2nd line). , the date is printed, and if it is an option for prints 1 to 7 for each intermediate machine, the contents of the line counter are read out, and if there is no additional registration (then, prints 1 to 7 for each intermediate machine are printed).

With such a configuration, when starting credit sales to a customer, first send a completely new form to the slip printer 17 to the cellar 1, enter the customer number set for that customer manually, and then proceed as shown in FIG. As shown in FIG. 1, the customer number is printed in the header of the form. Thereafter, sales data is sequentially printed from 1 to 1 according to the line rows. At this time, cash registers 1 to 1 as shown in FIG. 11 are issued. In FIG. 11, A is the department name, 口 is the quantity, C is the amount, 2 is the number of lines, and E is the customer number. Further, when printing is not carried out unattended such as at night, cash registers 1 to 1 are issued continuously as shown in FIG. 10. In Fig. 10, A is the department name, 1'' is the quantity, C is the amount, 2 is the number of lines, and E is the customer number. And when registering at night, the number of lines on the form is counted even if pudding 1~ is not performed.The counter counts the number of lines on the form, so for example, if the same customer comes to the store after the staff came that morning, that customer's When you set the form, it will contain the information shown in Figure 12.
As shown in a, the 5th and 6th lines are left blank. After that, set the mode selector switch 13 to typewriter 1, put the customer's form on the slip printer 1/iJ set 1~, look at the cash register 1~ issued at night, and specify the number of input lines 15 from the keyboard. If you enter the sales f-event]j, the data will be printed in the 5th and 6th lines, as shown in Figure 12b, and no data will be missing from the form. Also, at this time, the intermediate stand δl is not printed, as shown in FIG. 12b (a).

In this way, even when the slip printer 17 is not loaded with data, data can be written into the slip as quickly as a typewriter, so that correct slips can always be created.

Also, the slip printer 17 prints the data on the form.
- When the number of lines reaches 46, the first
3. Print the exchange message as shown in A of Figure 1.
Then, the staff will be able to replace the new form with a lamp so that they can immediately notice it and replace it with a new form. When the clerk sets a new form into the slip printer 17, the same exchange message as the previous form will be printed on the slip printer 17.
. . , it is possible to ensure correspondence between the forms of the same customer, and accurate form management is possible.

3. Although this embodiment has been described in which the present invention is applied to a gasoline store, it is needless to say that the present invention is not limited thereto.

[Effects of the Invention] According to the invention described in detail above, credit sales to customers can be made without having to print forms on a slip printer, and the data extracted at that time can be saved later. We provide a product sales system that can print on forms and always create correct forms.

Further, according to the present invention, it is possible to provide a product sales processing system that can ensure correspondence between each form even if there are only a small number of forms for one person, and that can perform accurate form management.
