Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] [Industrial Application Field] The present invention relates to an electronic cash register for restaurants (
This invention relates to sales data processing devices such as ECR).

[Summary of the Invention] This invention provides that in an ECR for a restaurant, etc., - after registering sales data within a transaction all at once, if the classification of each sales data is specified, each sales data is printed separately for each classification. For example, in l/stran, etc., when multiple customers in a transaction (l table) request to pay individually, it is now possible to issue individual payment slips accordingly. This is what I did.

[Prior Art] Conventionally, at a restaurant or other eatery, when multiple customers in a transaction (l table) request to pay individually, the cashier records the sales data for that one transaction in EC.
After registering all at once in R, a receipt was issued, and then the payment amount for each customer was calculated using a calculator while looking at the information entered on the receipt, or the receipt was handed over to the customer and the calculation was left to the customer.

[Problems to be solved by the invention] However, having the cashier calculate the payment amount for each customer using a calculator or the like places a heavy burden on the cashier and increases the waiting time for the next customer. Leaving this up to the customer will only put a burden on the customer, which is not a desirable method.

This invention was made against the background of the above-mentioned circumstances, and its purpose is to: - avoid placing too much burden on the cashier and customers when multiple customers in a transaction pay individually; It is an object of the present invention to provide a sales data processing device that can easily perform calculations in such cases.

[Means for Solving the Problems] Figure 1 is a functional block diagram of the present invention. 1 in Figure 0 is a function that stores the registered sales data and operates the closing key each time the input sales data is registered. 2 is a sales data holding means that holds sales data for one transaction (for example, one table in the case of a restaurant, etc.), and 2 is a specific printing of the sales data stored in the sales data holding means 1 (issuance of individual payment slips, etc.). ), 3 is a display means for displaying the sales data stored in the sales data holding means 1, and 4 is a display means for displaying the sales data displayed on the display means 3 (for example, if individual payment is required). 5 is a printing means for dividing and printing the sales data stored in the sales data holding means 1 for each category specified by the classification specifying means 4.

[Function] To explain the function of this invention, the sales data holding means l holds the sales data of one transaction up to the closing key operation.
The sales data stored in is read out when specific printing is designated and displayed on the display means 3 all at once or sequentially. When the display contents are visually confirmed and the classification of the displayed sales data is specified by the specification means 4, the sales data holding means 1
The ``inside sale'' data is printed by the printing means 5 separately for each designated classification. As a result 1. For example, when multiple customers in a transaction are required to make separate payments for each customer,
Sales data is printed separately for each customer on the receipt paper, and one individual payment slip is issued.

[Example] Hereinafter, an example of the present invention will be specifically described with reference to FIGS. 2 to 5. Note that this embodiment shows an example in which the present invention is applied to an ECR designed for a restaurant.

Keyaki-Ebisu Figure 2 is the basic block circuit diagram of this ECR.
In the figure, reference numeral 11 denotes an input section, on which there is a touch panel 11A on which a plurality of touch keys are arranged in a matrix for each product item (item), a push-button numeric keypad 11B, a function key 11C, and a mode changeover switch. MS is equipped. In addition, touch panel II
A detects a contact capacitance component formed by touching a finger or the like, and in this embodiment, a transparent touch panel is constructed, and below it is a liquid crystal display panel ( (not shown) is provided. Also, in the function key 11C, "%+", 1
%-”, “X”.

rCJ, "Current", and "Subtotal" can be used with the premium key, discount key, multiplication key, clear key, cash key, and subtotal key, and "Ginou" can be used with each key on the touch panel IIA to display each machine 1 gloss. Function keys used when setting, "page"
is a page change key that collectively changes the respective functions tE corresponding to the keys set on the touch panel IIA to the functions of the next page. Furthermore, rSVJ was specifically established as a part of customer service, and in cases where multiple customers at one table pay separately at a restaurant, the payment should be made in accordance with each sales data. A customer number input designation key (hereinafter referred to as SV key) that specifies the input of a customer number, a slip key that specifies that an individual payment slip should be issued for "slip", "customer 1", "customer 2", ...When "Customer 7" registers by customer stratum, the age of the customer is determined, that is, "Customer 1" is in his teens, "Customer 2" is in his teens.
” is a customer demographic key that specifies people in their 20s.

In addition, the mode changeover switch MS is set to ``Setting'', ``Registration J'', ``Power 0FFJ'', ``Inspection'', and ``Inspection'' depending on the switching position.
This is a so-called control lock that switches the "Payment" mode.

The CPU (Central Processing Circuit) 12 performs key manual processing, product-specific registration processing, customer-class registration processing, individual payment slip issuing processing, and processing for issuing individual payment slips according to pre-stored microprograms. By setting a customer number corresponding to each sales data in a transaction, a program such as a division registration process is executed to divide each sales data by customer. Here, the above product registration process is performed using the product-specific total memory M1 in the RAM (random access memory) 13, and the write and read addresses of the product-specific total memory M1 are specified according to the value of the a register in the CPU 12. do. Further, the CPU 12 sequentially writes the sales data inputted during the above-mentioned product-specific registration process into the memory for one transaction in the RAM 13, in other words, the memory M2 for one registration, according to the address set in the b register in the CPU 12. Execute. Also, the registration process for each customer group is as follows.

This is carried out for the customer class memory M3 in the RAM 13 using the a register in the CPU 12 and the customer class register in which the customer class data counted is set. In the CPU 12, in addition to the a register, b register, and customer class register, there is also a subtotal register in which subtotals of transactions are set, and individual subtotals calculated during the individual payment slip issuing process. An individual subtotal register is provided, a customer number register is set with the customer number input during the above-mentioned customer-class registration process, and an F register is set with a division flag indicating that customer-specific division registration is being executed. , a control section is provided.

In the RAM 13, a product-by-product total memory M1 stores a product number, a character indicating the product name, a unit price, and the number of sold items in correspondence with each row address area.

Further, the -registration memory M2 is a character indicating a product number and a product name corresponding to each row address area.

Memorize unit price and customer number. Further, the customer class memory M3 stores customer class codes, sales quantities, and sales amounts corresponding to each row address area. Note that the CPU 12 includes a drawer drive unit 14 and a display f! 115 and a printing unit 16 are connected to control drawer opening operation, display, and printing operation.

Product-Specific Registration Process to Protect Figure 3 First, the normal product-specific registration operation will be explained with reference to the flowchart shown in FIG. The registration operation in this case is performed using the touch panel IIA according to the normal key operation procedure. FIG. 9(A) shows an example of the key operation in this case. When the product key (touch key) on the touch panel IIA is operated, a product-specific registration process is started, and this registration process is performed according to steps A1 to AI3 in FIG. 3. In other words, when a product key is operated, the current transaction is started after the product key is operated and the product key is operated. is operated (steps A1 and A2), the customer number register, a register, F register and RAM in the CPU 12
Initialization processing (step A3) is executed to clear each memory M2 for one registration in 13. However,
In steps A4 to A6, processing is performed to search the product code from the product-by-product total memory M1 in accordance with the operated product key. In this case, the register a (initial state “0”)
”) is incremented by 1, the total memory for each product M1 is specified, and the product code (initially, the first product code rol) is specified in the specified address area.
) and the product code corresponding to the operated product key, and continue the search operation while updating the value of the a register by 1 until the corresponding product code is found. Then, when the corresponding product code is searched,
The process moves to the product-specific registration process (steps A8 to A13), but if the corresponding product code is not retrieved even after the value of the a register reaches the final address rnJ of the product-specific total memory M1, the input product code is Error processing (step A7) is performed to notify that the data does not exist in the total memory M1. When a corresponding product code is retrieved through such search processing, the number of sales is updated by adding "1" to the sales data (number of sales) in the total memory Ml for each product for that product code (step A8).
, when such product-specific registration is performed, - the value of the b register specifying the address of the registration memory M2 is added plus "l".
” and increments the address (step A9), or the value of this b register is “0” in the initial state, so it becomes “1” in the first increment process. The write address of the registration memory M2 is specified, and the data read from the product-by-product total memory M1 with the value of the a register, that is, the product code, character, and unit price of the currently registered product, are stored in the registration memory M2. The specified address area is initially written to address 1 (stave 7 Al0), and the character and unit price corresponding to the product number that has now been written to the registration memory M2 are read from the product-by-product total memory M1, The images are sent to the display section 15 and the printing section 16 (FIG. 9 CB), (
As shown in C), the characters and unit prices corresponding to the operation keys are displayed and printed on the receipt (step A11), and the unit price of the registered product is added to the subtotal register to obtain a new subtotal (step A12). ), and the value of the a register is cleared (step A13).
This kind of operation is executed every time the product key is operated, and as a result, each time a product-specific registration is performed, the product-related code,
Characters and unit prices are sequentially written in the order in which they were registered in the one-registration memory M2. Therefore, sales data for one transaction can be stored in the registration memory M2.

Subtotal Processing FIG. 4 This subtotal processing is executed according to the flow shown in FIG. That is, when the subtotal key is operated, this is detected in step B1, and the contents of the subtotal register in the CPU 1Z are read out and sent to the display section 15 and printing section 16, and are displayed in FIG. 9 (13), ( As shown in C), the subtotal data is displayed and printed (step B2), and the value of the b register is cleared in step B1.

Closing process Figure 5 After subtotal processing, the cash key is operated to end the transaction. Here, the cash key is operated subsequent to the subtotal key - in the event that multiple customers in a transaction do not request to pay individually. When the cash key is operated, the flow shown in FIG. 5 is started. That is, when the subtotal key is operated, this is detected in step C1, and before the next cash key is operated, i? 1
It is determined whether there is an input of lFk, that is, whether a deposit has been entered for calculation of change (Step C2).
, If the deposit is entered, the change calculation is calculated, displayed, and printed (step C3) 6. If there is no number, the subtotal amount is processed as the deposit,
The information is displayed and printed (step C4).

Figure 6: - If multiple customers in a transaction request to pay separately, the registration for all products in one transaction can be done at once as described above. After doing so, perform a split registration operation that divides the sales data within one transaction for each customer according to the key operation procedure shown in FIG. 10 (A). In this case,
First, operate only the S ■ key. Then, this is detected in step DI of FIG. 6, and then in step D2, it is determined whether this is the initial input of the SV key, that is, the first operation, depending on whether the division flag is set in the F register. . Initially, the flag in the F register is off, so the process of setting "1" in the a register (step D
After performing 3), according to the value of this a register,
- Address the registration memory M2 and write the first data (
character, unit price) (step D4), and flag 1'' is set in the F register at Stella 7'D5.

In this way, when the first Sv key is operated, the first data in the registration memory M2 is displayed as shown in FIG. 10 (B), so check this and enter the customer number according to the customer's instructions. Place the number.

For example, if there are two individual payment requests from three people, the customer number "l" will be assigned to each customer.

Decide on ``2'' and ``3'', then ask who will pay the displayed price and give that person's customer number;! 1
ri and operate 5V-t--. In this case, since the flag is turned on in the F register, this is detected in step D2, and the presence or absence of the t number input is then checked (
Step D6), now, as shown in FIG. 10(A), assuming that the customer number "1" has been entered, the address area of the one registration memory M2 corresponding to the value of the a register is ri.
The counted customer number is updated (step D7), that is, the customer number of the person who is to pay for the product is stored in the one-registration memory M2 in which data regarding the displayed product is stored. , initially the value of the a register is r
lJ, the customer number ``1j'' is stored in correspondence with the product code ``03'' stored at address 1 of the registration memory M2. In this case, the S primary key operation is invalid.However, when the customer number is written to the memory M2 for one registration as described above, the value of the a register becomes positive.
1'' (step D8), and it is checked whether there is data in the one registration memory M2 specified by this a register (step D9). If the split registration process for setting the customer number has not been completed, that is, if the split registration is still in progress, proceed to step ]) IO to obtain the next product data.

That is, the data (character, unit price) stored next to the product data for which the customer number has been set is read out from the registration memory M2 and displayed.

Then, when the user visually confirms the displayed contents, enters the customer number of the person paying for the product, and operates the SV key, the above-described operation is repeated.

In this way, when the data in the registered memory M2 is sequentially displayed one product at a time and the customer number that is to be paid for that product is entered, the customer number is displayed in the registered memory M2 for each product. It will be set accordingly. In this case, once the customer number has been set for the last product, no data is stored in the next address area of the registration memory M2, so the previous one is detected in step D9, and the process advances to step Dll. The subtotal data is printed and displayed, and the contents of the a register are cleared (step D12).

When the customer division registration operation is completed in this way, the subtotal amount is automatically displayed without operating the subtotal key (Figure 10).
See B).

Slip Issuance FIG. 7 Next, when reading out the data in one registration M2 that has been separately registered for each customer as described above and issuing a payment slip for each customer, operate the slip key.

Then, this is detected in step E1, and a customer-specific payment slip issuance process is executed in the next steps E2 to E12. Therefore, in this slip issuing process, the data stored in the memory M2 for one registration is sequentially read out for each customer according to the registration, and printed separately for each customer on the receipt paper, and the individual subtotal for each customer is determined and printed. It was designed to do so.

First, the value of the customer number register in the CPU 12 is positive.
1", but in this case, the initial value is "0", so the customer number is initially set to "1" (step E2).
Therefore, at first, the process of issuing an individual payment slip for customer number "1" is performed. That is, first, the value of the a register is plus rlJ, and as a result, the value of the a register becomes "1" (step E3), and then this a
One registration memory M2 is addressed according to the value of the register, and if data is stored at the specified address (initially address 1), this is detected in step E4, and then data is stored within the specified address. It is detected whether or not the customer number currently displayed matches the customer number stored in the customer number register (step E5).
, The customer number currently set in the customer number register is "1", and the customer number read from address 1 of the registration memory M2 is rlJ in the example of FIG.
Those matches are detected in step E5 and step E6
Then, characters and units are read out from address 1 in the -a recording memory M2 and printed. In this case, if the first match is detected in step E5, the contents (Nol) of the customer number register are also printed (see FIG. 10 (C)), and the unit price just read is added to the individual subtotal in the CPU 12. After the individual subtotal is added to the register value (initially "O") and cumulative JF processing (step E7) is performed, the process returns to step E3, and the address of the -registered memory M2 is incremented. This operation is repeated until all data related to customer number "1" are read out from the memory M2 for one registration and printed, that is, until no data is detected in step E4. As a result, only the data regarding the customer number rlJ is read out from the memory M2 for one registration and printed in the order in which it was registered, and the individual subtotals for the customer number rlJ up to that point are accumulated. If no data is detected in step E4, the process proceeds to step E8, where the individual subtotal added to the customer number "1" accumulated in the individual subtotal register is printed and displayed. After receiving payment from the customer based on the displayed individual subtotal, the customer operates the cash key.

This causes the process to proceed to the next step E9, where the closing process is performed. Note that the tightening process in this case is also similar to steps 01 to C4 described above.

With this closing process, the process for one customer is completed. Then, in order to perform the same slip issuing process as described above for the next customer, initialization processing (step EIO1Ell) is performed to clear the contents of the 1 individual subtotal register and the a register, respectively, and then the next step E1
2, it is checked whether all data in the memory M2 for one registration has been printed out. In this case, the detection process can be performed by storing the maximum customer number entered in the above-mentioned split registration operation in advance, and making a judgment based on whether or not the value of the customer number register has reached this maximum customer number. be able to. Since it is now time to start the slip issuing process for customer number "2", this is detected in E12 and the process returns to E2, where the value of the customer number register is incremented to "2". Same as in the case, issue processing of individual payment slip for customer number "2" (steps E3 to E9)
is executed. After the initialization process (steps E10 and E11), the customer number is incremented (step E2) to start a similar slip issuing process for the first customer, and an individual payment slip for the next customer number "3" is issued. Proceed to the issuance process. After the issuance of individual payment slips for all customers is completed in this way, the process proceeds to step E13, where the contents of the customer number register are cleared.

As a result, individual payment slips for three people are issued corresponding to customer numbers rlJ, "2", and "3".

Note that each payment slip is printed on one receipt, and each slip is separated by a dotted line as shown in FIG. 10(C) (the dotted line is a perforation hole formed by a cutter). , Note that this dotted line is the tightening process (step E9)
This process is used to estimate the age of the customer when sales management by customer group is required. and operate the customer level 1 key, customer level 2 key, etc. Then, this is detected in step Fl, and the process proceeds to step F2, where it is determined whether the division flag in the F register is turned on, that is, after the above-mentioned division registration. If split registration processing is not currently being performed,
Proceeding to step F12, the customer class code in the customer class memory M3 corresponding to the operation key is searched, and the contents of the registration memory M2 are added to the sales data (number of items sold, sales amount) corresponding to the customer class code.

In addition, when registering by customer group after split registration,
Key operations as shown in FIG. 11 are performed.

That is, the customer number and SV key are operated, and the age of the customer who performed the split registration is estimated using the customer number, and the corresponding customer group 1 key, customer group 2 key, etc. are operated. In this case, since it is determined in step F2 that the registration is by customer class after split registration, the process advances to step F3, and the customer class number corresponding to the operation key is stored in the customer class register of the CPU 12. The presence or absence of tI%, that is, the presence or absence of a customer number input is checked, and if one customer number is not input, the registration by customer class will be invalidated, but since the customer number has now been incremented, step F5
Then, the t-number data is stored in the customer number register. After various input processes are performed in accordance with the operation, the unit price and quantity of the customer number corresponding to the number t customer number are read out from the registration memory Mz and stored in the customer group memory M3 for each customer group. Registration is done by customer group. That is,
Each time the address in the a register is incremented by 1, the customer number corresponding to the l number of customer numbers is searched from the memory M2 for one registration (steps F5 and F7). This search operation searches all the data corresponding to the specified customer number. is repeated until one registration is read out from the memory M2 (step FIO), L
When the designated customer number is retrieved, the unit price and number of items corresponding to that customer number are read out from the memory M2 for one registration, and the customer stratification memory M3 is specified by the value of the customer stratification register.
The sales data (number of customer units, sales amount) corresponding to the customer group code is accumulated (step F8). When the registration by customer group is completed in this way, the data in the memory Mz for one registration is cleared (step F9). Then, the above operation is repeated until all the data corresponding to the designated customer number is registered from the one registration memory M2 to the customer stratification memory M3, and as a result, the customer stratification registration for that customer is completed in step FiO. When detected, the contents of the a register are cleared in step Fil.

Since such an operation is similarly performed for the first customer, all data in the -registration memory Mz will be registered in the customer class memory.

[Effects of the Invention] As described in detail above, this invention is capable of printing the sales data separately for each category by specifying the classification of sales data for one transaction up to the pressing of the closing key. For example, in a restaurant, etc., if multiple customers in one transaction (one table) request to pay individually,
It has the effect of being able to issue individual payment slips accordingly.
