Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION [Field of Industrial Application] This invention relates to product sales data processing vR'ei in which registered data is divided into various transaction totalizers and cumulatively processed.

[Prior art] Conventionally, cash registers have been used in POS (point of sale) systems, etc., in which a single electronic cash register or multiple cash registers are centrally connected to a management device installed in an office in a store, etc. After entering and registering the products purchased by the customer individually,
When the registration is finalized, a receipt is issued with the name, price, and total price of the product purchased by the customer printed out. Also, at this time, various types of transaction data are generated depending on the details of the closing, and the data is selectively accumulated in various transaction-specific totalizers according to the contents.

For example, after one day's registration work is completed, the data of the totalizer for each transaction can be printed out and a report for each transaction can be issued. In this case, even if there is transaction-specific data that is not very important to the store, all the contents of the various transaction-specific totalizers are printed out.

[Problems to be solved by the invention] However, in a device like this that always prints out the contents of the totalizer for each transaction, it also prints out data that the store does not need, so it takes time to issue the report and uses paper. There was a problem that ink ribbons and ink ribbons were wasted.

Therefore, the present invention can shorten report issuing time by prohibiting the printing of data on transaction-specific totalizers that are not very important, and can prevent wasteful use of paper, ribbons, etc., and can also easily configure product sales data. The purpose is to provide a processing device.

[Means for Solving the Problems] As shown in FIG. 1, the first invention registers product sales data and, by closing the registration, divides the registered data into various transaction totalizers a and processes the cumulative totals. In the product sales data processing device, a name setting memory b is provided in which the name of the totalizer a for each transaction can be set, and a specific code for prohibiting printing can be set in a part of the name, and data for the totalizer a for each transaction are set. A print command means C that commands printing, and when there is a print command from this print command means C, the name of the various transaction totalizers a set in the name setting memory b is checked, and the corresponding transaction totalizer is checked along with the name. This system is equipped with a transaction data printing output means d that prints out the contents of a and prohibits the printout of the name and the corresponding transaction totalizer a when a specific code is set as part of the name. be.

The second invention includes a print command means for instructing data printing of a totalizer a for various transactions in two ways, and a print command for each transaction set in a name setting memory b when one of the print commands is received by the print command means. While checking the name of totalizer a, print out the contents of totalizer a by transaction corresponding to that name, and if a specific code is set as part of the name, print out that name and the corresponding totalizer a by transaction. Print output is prohibited, and if there is another print command, the names of various transaction totalizers a set in name setting memory b and the contents of the corresponding transaction totalizer a are all printed out without checking the specific code. This system is equipped with means for printing and outputting transaction-specific data.

[Operation] In the first invention having such a configuration, if a specific code is set in advance in the name setting memory b as a part of the name of the transaction totalizer a that does not need to be printed out, the transaction When a print command for totalizer a is input, only the contents of transaction totalizer a except for transaction totalizer a for which a specific code is set are printed out, and a transaction report is issued.

In addition, in the second invention, even if a specific code is set in a part of the name set in the name setting memory b depending on the contents of the printing command, the totalizer a for each transaction ignores it.
Print out all the contents and issue a report for each transaction.

[Example] Hereinafter, an example of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. In this embodiment, the present invention will be described as applied to a POS system.

As shown in FIG. 2, n electronic cash registers ECR1 and ECR2 are installed in a sales floor.

ECR3, . . . ECRn are connected to a terminal controller TC installed in an office, for example, via a line. A store processor SP as a management device is connected to this terminal controller TC.

When the terminal controller TC receives an inquiry about the single item code from the cash registers ECR5 to ECRA, it notifies the store processor SP of the inquiry, and also sends a response to the single item code adjustment from the store processor SP to the cash registers ECRr to ECRrL. , receives management transaction data from the cash registers ECR1 to ECRn and controls the supply to the store processor SP.

The store processor SP has a single product file, and when an inquiry about a single product code is received, it searches the single product file, reads the product name, price, department code, etc. corresponding to the single product code, and performs control to send it to the terminal controller TC. Let's do it. Furthermore, when transaction data is received, single item cumulative processing is performed in the sales total area of the single item file based on the data.

As shown in FIG. 3, each of the electronic cash registers ECR1 to ECRn is operated by a CPU 11 constituting a control unit main body;
A ROM 12 that stores program data for the CPU 11 to control various parts, a RAM 13 that has various memories for data processing, and keys that specify each business mode of "registration", "inspection", "payment", and "setting" switch 1
4, a clock circuit 16 for counting the year, month, day and time, and a transmission interface 17 for controlling the transmission and reception of information with the terminal controller TC via a line. Additionally, there is one printer controller that controls a printer 18 that prints on receipt paper and journal paper, and a display device 2.
A display controller 21 that controls 117j, a keyboard controller 23 that controls the keyboard 22, and a scanner controller 25 that controls the barcode scanner 24 are provided.

The CPU 11, ROM 12, RAM 2S, input board 15, clock circuit 16, transmission interface 1
7. Each controller 19.21°23.25 is connected by a pass line 26.

Note that a drawer drive device 28 that drives a drawer 27 for storing money is controlled by the CPU 11 via the printer controller 19.

The "registration" mode designated by the key switch 14 is a business mode for registering customer product sales data entered using the keyboard 22 and barcode scanner 24, and the "inspection" mode is a business mode for registering customer product sales data entered using the keyboard 22 and barcode scanner 24, and the "inspection" mode is for example one day. This is a business mode that outputs the registered results as a report during the registration process, and the "Settlement" mode outputs the registered results of the day as a report, for example, after the day's registration process is finished. This is a business mode in which the registration memory is cleared, and the "setting" mode is a business mode in which information necessary for registration is set.

The keyboard 22 is provided with a numeric key 1 for inputting numerical values and a numeral key 2 used for closing registration, etc.

As shown in FIG. 4, the main memories in the RAM 13 include a departmental totalizer 131, a transactional totalizer 132, a name setting memory 133 in which the names of the various transactional totalizers 132 are set, and a memory for printing. A print buffer 134 for temporarily storing data, a display buffer '13S for temporarily storing data for display, a transmitting/receiving buffer 136 for temporarily storing data to be transmitted and received with the terminal controller TC, etc. are provided.

The various transaction totals 132 include "business total", "commercial total", "discount", "net sales total", "gross sales total", "current total", "
Cash inventory J rNET GTJ r Negative sales total
"Cancellation" - "Training J" Totalizers for "Reregistration" are provided, and the corresponding names are "Business Policy", "Sales Total", "Discount", "Net Sales Total", "Gross Sales Total", "Current Total" and "Current". "High"
rGTJ r-Sell” “Cancel” ~ rTRJ rENTJ
is set in the name setting memory 133.

Further, in this name setting memory 133, a part of the name "-sale", that is, a "Song" code, which is a specific code for prohibiting printing, is set at the beginning of the name.

Same < The specific code "tree" code is also set at the beginning of the name of rTRJ and the name of rENTJ.

For example, when the "registration" mode is designated by the key switch 14, the CPU 11 executes the following registration process. That is, when the barcode attached to the product is read by the barcode scanner 24, an inquiry is made to the store processor SP via the transmission interface 17 about the single item code. When the product name, price, department code, etc. are sent from the store processor SP, the price is displayed on the display device 20, and the product name, price,
The score and amount are printed out on receipt paper and journal paper by a printer 18. Also, department registration is performed on the department table δ↑ device 131 based on the department code.

Further, when the current amount key from the keyboard 22 is pressed, the total amount is displayed on the display device 20, and the printer 1
8, the total amount is printed out and a receipt is issued. Further, the drawer driving device 28 is controlled to open the drawer 27. Furthermore, the current registered data is accumulated by transaction totalizer 132 for each transaction.

The CPU 11 also performs "inspection" using the key switch 14, for example.
Or, especially when the “Payment” mode is specified, the fifth
The transaction-specific report shown in the figure is issued. This means that when 1 r2J is input to the numeric key on the keyboard 22 and the 2 key is pressed to the current total key, one of the names of the totalizers for each transaction is read from the name setting memory 133 and stored in the print buffer 134. set. Then, it is checked whether or not the specific code "Tree" code is set at the beginning of the name, and if this code is not set, the number of sales points and sales amount are read from the corresponding totalizer 132 for each transaction and printed in the print buffer. 134 to print out on receipt paper and journal paper. Further, if the "Thu" code is set at the beginning of the name, printing of the transaction-specific totalizer corresponding to that name is prohibited, and the next name is read from the name setting memory 133 and set in the print buffer 134.

When the above processing is completed for all transaction totals 132, necessary information such as time is printed out, receipt paper is cut, and a transaction report is issued.

In addition, when 1 "22" is entered into the numeric key on the keyboard 22 and the 2 key is pressed into the current total key, the names of the totalizers for each transaction are read out one by one from the name setting memory 133 and the corresponding transaction is processed. The contents of the separate totalizer 132 are sequentially printed out, but at this time, all the contents of the transaction-specific totalizer 132 are printed out without checking whether or not the "tree" code is set at the beginning of the name.

In this embodiment with such a configuration, for example, when one day's registration work is completed and the key switch 14 is set to the "Payment" mode to perform the payment work, the numeric keys are set to 1 and 2.
When you enter 2 and operate 2 on the current total key, the transaction totalizer 132 corresponding to the name set in the name setting memory 133 does not have the specific code "Thursday" code set at the beginning of the name. Only the content is printed out by the printer 18.

Therefore, at this time, as shown in FIG. 6, only the contents of the transaction totals, excluding the transaction totals to which specific codes have been set, are printed out and a transaction report is issued.

Therefore, if a specific code is set in advance in the name setting memory 133 at the beginning of the name corresponding to a transaction total that does not need to be printed, the contents of that transaction total will not be printed.
The time required to issue reports by transaction can be reduced by that amount.
You can also save on receipt paper, journal paper, and ink ribbon.

Further, the configuration is simple because the specific code is set at the beginning of the name set in the name setting memory 133 without using a separate area.

Even if a specific code is set in the name setting memory 133, if you enter "22" with the numeric key Kl and press 2 on the current key, all the names set in the name setting memory 133 will be displayed. The contents of all the corresponding transaction totals 132 are printed out, and a transaction report as shown in FIG. 7 is issued.

Even if a specific code is set in the name in this way, it is possible to issue a transaction report in which the contents of all transaction totals are printed by changing the contents of the print command.

Therefore, even if the store does not normally need transaction-specific data, if it becomes necessary from time to time, it can be dealt with immediately.

Although the above embodiments have been described with reference to the application of the present invention to a POS system, the present invention is not necessarily limited to this, and can also be applied to, for example, an electronic cash register alone.

[Effects of the Invention] As detailed above, according to the present invention, it is possible to shorten the time required to issue a report, prevent wasteful use of paper, ribbons, etc., and process product sales data with a simple configuration. equipment can be provided.
