Description

Detailed Description of the Invention (a) Technical Field The present invention relates to an electronic cash register having a product management file that stores records containing data on a product code, product name, total product sales, and number of product sales for each product. .

(b1 Summary of the Invention This invention stores the product name and management information behind it in the product name storage area of a product management file, and also stores the data stored in the product name storage area on the receipt when registering sales. A product name length storage means is provided so that only the product name can be retrieved and printed, so that only the product name is printed out when registering sales, and management information is also printed out along with the product name when outputting a sales report. It is.

(C) Prior art and its disadvantages In this type of electronic cash register, all data stored in the product name storage area of the product management file is printed out on the receipt both when registering sales and when outputting a sales report. I was doing it. For this reason, if management information such as the supplier is stored in the product name storage area along with the product name, management information that is completely unrelated to the customer will be printed out along with the product name on the customer receipt. This caused the inconvenience of making receipts difficult to read.

(d) Purpose of the Invention The purpose of the present invention is to store management information together with the product name in the product name storage area, so that only the product name is printed out on the customer receipt, and the management information is printed out along with the product name on the sales report. Another object of the present invention is to provide an electronic cash register which can also be printed out.

(e) Structure and Effect of the Invention To summarize, this invention stores management information along with the product name in a product name storage area of a product management file behind the product name storage area, and stores the product name retrieved from the product name storage area at the time of sales registration. A product name length storage means for specifying the length is provided, and when registering sales, data corresponding to the length stored in the product name length storage means is retrieved from the product name storage area and the sales are recorded as the product name. The present invention is characterized in that it includes means for extracting all the data in the product name storage area and including it in the sales data as the product name and management information when outputting a sales report.

By configuring as described above, according to the present invention, even when store management information such as a supplier is attached to a product name, management information can be excluded from the output length on a customer receipt. On the customer receipt, only purchased product information without management information is output, and on the sales report information, management information is also output together with the product name. Therefore, the receipt becomes easier for the customer to view, and the customer can obtain a report in which all the necessary information is printed.

tf) Embodiment FIG. 1 is a block diagram of an electronic cash register which is an embodiment of the present invention. ROM that stores programs
2, the CPU includes a data input means 3 including an input key.
, a storage means 4 containing a product management file to be described later, a display means 5, and a printing means 6 for outputting customer receipts and sales reports.

FIG. 2 is a diagram showing the arrangement of the input keys. The key 10 can select any one of program mode, registration mode, and report output mode. The product code designation key is composed of five keys DPI to DP5. For example, if you press DPI, the product code "01" will be input. The numeric keypad 12 is used to input the unit price of the product. Function keys 13 are subtotal key 13a and cash sales key 1
It is composed of 3b.

FIG. 3 is a block diagram of the storage means 4. As shown in FIG. As shown in the figure, this storage means is composed of a storage section for a product management file DPTF, a function management file, an operator management file, and a product name length LN. In this embodiment, the product name length LN is set to "6".

FIG. 4 is a configuration diagram of the product management file DPTF. This file is composed of a total of five records consisting of a product code storage area, a product name storage area, a product sales total storage area, and a product sales count storage area. "WNOTE 0010" is stored in the product name storage area of the record with the product code "01,"153900'' is stored in the product sales total area, and 620'' is stored in the product sales count area. “WNOTE 0010” stored in the product name storage area
"W N0TE" represents the product name, "001
0'' represents a supplier code which is management information.

FIG. 5 shows an example of key operations when registering sales in the registration mode. With this key operation, DP2 is registered at a unit price of "150". FIG. 6 shows the content printed on the customer receipt by the key operation shown in FIG. When the key operation shown in Fig. 5 is executed, the record with the product code "02" in the product management file DPTF shown in Fig. 4 is searched from the DP2, and the product name length LN (=6) is searched from the product name storage area. Data for the length is retrieved.

That is, "PENCi L" is taken out and printed out together with the unit price 150.

FIG. 7 shows an example of a sales report output operation in the report output mode. When the key DPI is pressed, the product management file DPTF shown in FIG.
The record with the product code "01" is searched for, and the data "W N0TE 0010" is taken out from the product name storage area and printed as is. Furthermore, the total product sales "153,900" and the number of product sales "620" are also extracted and printed out on the report. Figure 8 shows
8 is a diagram showing an example of printout when the key operation shown in FIG. 7 is executed; FIG. As shown in the figure, in this report output mode, all the data stored in the product name storage area, that is, the product name and management information are also output as a report.

Next, the operation of the electronic cash register will be explained.

FIG. 9 is a flowchart showing the operation in registration mode. In steps n1 to n3, the type of input key is determined, and if it is a numeric keypad, the number data is temporarily stored in the number buffer at step n4. If the product code specification key is DPI to DP5, then create the product management file DPT using the product code input in n6 as the key, provided that the number is placed in front of it.
Search for F. If there is a corresponding record, only the characters of the length stored in the product name length storage means are taken out of the data stored in the product name storage area of the record and printed on the customer receipt. Furthermore, the number data input as the unit price is also printed and output at the same time.

FIG. 10 is a flowchart showing the operation in report output mode.

When the key is input manually, the key type is product code designation key D
If it is PI-DP5, the product management file DPTF is searched using the product code input in n12 as a key.

If there is a corresponding record, all data in the product name storage area of that record is printed (n13). Furthermore, the respective data stored in the product sales total storage area and the product sales count storage area of the corresponding record are printed out (n14).

When outputting customer receipts (when registering sales) by the above operation
Only the product name can be printed, and when a sales report is output, management information can be printed out along with the product name at the same time. The data to be set in the product name length storage means is set using the input key 12. The key operation for making this setting is to enter the program mode, enter the product name length, and press the subtotal key 13a.
