Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION (Industrial Application Field) The present invention relates to a POS system that is installed in a store or the like and includes a store management information processing device and a POS register.
In particular, it relates to a schedule overlap management method that enhances the ability to change the price of a single item.

(Prior art) Conventionally, when processing duplicate price reductions such as time schedules during long-term sale periods, it is impossible to set schedules at the same time. A known method is to register a schedule, change the start date and time to match the end date and time of the short-term schedule, and register the deleted schedule again.

(1 point while the invention is about to be approved) The conventional systems described above have the fifth to third problems as described below.

First, it is not possible to input schedule data that is known in advance, such as monthly specials, weekly specials, and daily specials for the same single item, and the registration process becomes complicated as the data must be registered separately. However, there is a disadvantage that the risk of erroneous operation or registration omission increases.

Second, when one long-term schedule is subdivided into multiple schedules, rJ, the total number of schedules, and the number of schedules for the same single item increase, resulting in problems such as internal processing time and limits on the number of registrations.

Thirdly, since the operator cannot see the movement of the entire schedule and can only grasp the current status, there is a drawback that management becomes complicated.

An object of the present invention is to make it possible to set a plurality of pieces of data with overlapping periods for the same item when setting price change data (schedule) on a single store management information processing device, and to make it possible to set a plurality of pieces of data with overlapping periods for the same item. P08 KIIR included 1
In addition to realizing the price change, at the end of one set schedule period, the waiting ninth schedule is activated, and the process of automatically changing the price at POS is repeated until all schedule periods end, and those It is an object of the present invention to provide a schedule duplication management system configured to eliminate the above-mentioned drawbacks and meet the above-mentioned demands by outputting information regarding price change sales into a store management information processing device.

(Means for Solving the Problems) The schedule duplication management method according to the present invention includes a price change information setting means and a price change realizing means.

A POS that is equipped with a price change means and an information output means and is composed of a store management information processing device and a POS register terminal.
This is in the S system.

The price change information setting means is for setting multiple pieces of price change information for the same item, allowing overlapping periods.

The price change implementation means is for importing the set data into the POS in a priority manner according to the registration order and realizing the price change.

The price changing means is for validating the next setting data that was on standby at the end of one setting period and changing one price.

The information output means is for outputting one price change information.

(Example) Next, one of the present invention will be explained with reference to 15!3rM.

1st! 5th! Q shows the overall system configuration diagram, Fig. 2 shows the ninth method of creating schedule data, and Fig. 3 shows the ninth method of creating schedule data.
The figure shows the details of the schedule data registration method in the case of duplication, and Figure 4 shows a model of updating the FLU table from the schedule data by monitoring the timer, and the fifth cause is POS.
Method for realizing price changes and displaying sales information%
In the formula % 1111, % 100 is the store management information processing device t, 200 is the workstation, 300 is the POS register, 10 is the schedule data file, 20q is the schedule check file, 30 is the PLU memory, 40
is the sales log file, 31O is the display, 32o
is a receipt journal.

In FIG. 311, schedule data file 10.
In addition, files such as the schedule check file 20 are stored in the store management information processing device 100, and the single item schedule information is sent from the workstation 200 to the single item code, schedule period, and price change information (for example.

This is set by inputting the amount (deductible amount), etc.

The entered information is in schedule data file 1.
0. and is stored in the schedule check file 20, and expanded to the FLU memory 30 when the corresponding date and time is reached by the timer of the store management information processing device.

The POS register 300 reads the single item information from the FLU memory 3o from the input product data, realizes a discount on the product,
This is output to the display 310 and receipt journal 320, and at the same time, it is also output to the sales log file 40 in the store management information processing.

The second item is the schedule check file 20.0 based on the information entered from the workstation 2oo. and a method for creating a schedule data file 10. The schedule check file 20 is a file whose key is the single product code, and the schedule data file IO is a file whose key is the start date and time or end date and time.

FIG. 3 shows a method for updating the schedule check file 20 when data with overlapping periods are entered for the same item code. Here, the schedule that has already been registered is indicated by 08T-(JEND), and the schedule to be newly registered is indicated by f:N8T-NBND.
NDi priority friend, schedule data file lO
Also inserted or deleted according to the duplicate status.

FIG. 4 is a flowchart showing the processing flow within the store management information processing device. The store management information processing device monitors a timer, sequentially reads the contents of the schedule data file IO stored in the disk, compares the current date and time with the schedule date and time, and when the current date and time exceeds the schedule date and time, the PLO The contents of the memory 30 are updated to store price change information, and preparations for realizing all price changes are completed no matter when the pOs register refers to it.

At this time, the processed schedule data file lO
is deleted, and in the schedule check file 20, the data is cleared when processing is completed due to the start and end of one schedule.

MJ 5 reads the contents of the FLU memory 30 from the product data input to the POS register 300, realizes a single item price reduction, or a total price reduction, and outputs this on the display 310 and journal receipt 320. 1. Information regarding price changes and sales is stored in a sales log file 40 on a disk within the store management information processing device 100.
This shows the output pattern as .

(Effects of the Invention) As explained above, the present invention makes it possible to set multiple pieces of data with overlapping periods for the same item when setting price change data (schedule) in one store management information processing capacity. possible.

Setting data is imported into the POS in a priority manner to realize one price change, and at the end of one setting schedule period, the next waiting schedule is activated and the POS
The process of automatically changing prices in S is repeated until all schedule periods end, and information regarding those price changes and sales is output to the store management information processing device. There are 3 effects.

First, long-term and short-term schedules for the same single item can be input at the same time, which eliminates the need to divide and register schedules, simplifying one operation, and eliminating errors caused by operator judgment. This has the effect of preventing registration omissions.

Second, the total number of schedule registrations to be managed is reduced,
This has the effect of increasing the efficiency of internal processing time. Further, there is an effect that the restriction on the number of registered schedules for the same single item is relaxed.

Thirdly, it becomes possible for the operator to clearly understand the movement of the entire schedule, thereby increasing the flexibility of schedule management.
