Description

How to Issue a Customer Designated Receipt for a Cash Register

The present invention relates to a method for issuing a receipt of a cash register, and more particularly, to a method for issuing a customer specified receipt of a cash register which prevents the receipt from being used by anyone other than the purchase party by printing personal information of the customer on the receipt. It is about.

In general, a cash register refers to a device used to facilitate information management by processing various data accompanying product sales and informing a user of a result. It ranges from point of sales system to comprehensively manage the distribution economy such as research. Hereinafter, in this specification, the term electronic cash register controlled by a microprocessor is used as a broad concept including a low-end cash register to a POS terminal.

1 is a general system block diagram of a cash register as described above. As shown in this figure, the cash register is a printer for issuing documents for the customer's receipts, audit papers and various data processing results under the control of the central processing unit 10 and the central processing unit 10 that controls the overall operation of the cash register ( 20) to implement various functions of the cash register, including a key input unit 30 for generating a mode designation signal and various key codes for money registration using keys provided on a keyboard (not shown), and a system operation program. ROM 40 having a built-in program, RAM 50 for temporarily storing various data generated during the money registration operation, and various data processing results generated during the money registration operation through an indicator such as a CRT under the control of the central processing unit 10. It supplies power to the display unit 60 and the cash register, which are shown to customers and clerks. A is generated during the operation is constructed by using a power supply 70 and the bar code reader to preserve the overall data temporarily stored in the RAM 50 includes a barcode reading unit 80 for reading the data of the bar code attached to a commodity.

In order to process various data generated when selling a product using a cash register having the above configuration, data input through an input means such as a key input unit 30 or a barcode reading unit 80 must be preceded.

As described above, the data input to the cash register is temporarily stored in the RAM 50, printed through the printer 20, and output in the form of a receipt and an audit paper.

On the other hand, the customer receiving the receipt can easily check the financial transaction history through the receipt, and may also receive tax benefits by submitting the receipt to the tax office.

In addition, in order to participate in the event, such as a gift giveaway held in the store, you must prove the purchase at the store, and present your receipt to prove your purchase.

However, the above-mentioned conventional receipt does not print any personal information on the purchase party, so it is very difficult to determine whether the receipt holder is the actual buyer after some time from the purchase date.

Therefore, there are frequent cases of unfair advantage of using the receipt, such as receiving a gift that was not received by the user at the event, such as a gift giveaway, or receiving a tax benefit by deceiving the receipt of another person as one's own.

The present invention has been made to solve the problems described above, and designates a receipt customer of a cash register which prints the personal information of the buyer on the receipt in order to prevent the receipt from being used for the purpose of taking unfair advantage by anyone other than the purchase party. The purpose is to provide a method of issuance.

Receiving customer designation issuing method of the cash register of the present invention comprises the steps of determining whether or not a signal for requesting input of the buyer personal information; Receiving the purchaser's personal information in a corresponding storage area and setting a flag when the determination result request signal is generated; Determining whether the flag is set when the first transaction data is input; If the flag is set as a result of the determination, printing the buyer's personal information on a receipt and then printing the transaction data, and if the flag is cleared, printing only the transaction data; And clearing the storage area and the flag at the end of the transaction.

Hereinafter, with reference to the accompanying drawings, a method for issuing a receipt customer designation of the cash register of the present invention according to the preferred embodiment will be described in detail.

2 is a key configuration diagram provided in the key input unit 30 of the cash register to which the present invention is applicable, and FIG. 3 is a flowchart illustrating a method for issuing a receipt customer designation according to the present invention.

As shown in FIG. 2, the keys of the key input unit 30 select and execute a desired function from among various functions that can be performed by the mode selection switch 32 and the cash register used to designate a desired mode among various operation modes of the cash register. It is divided into a function key group 34 used to designate a product, an item key group 36 used to designate a sale item, and a numeric key group 38 used to input a price or a number requiring registration of various items.

In addition, the function key group 34 includes a subtotal key 34a, which is a key used to calculate subtotals of the input sales amount, and a cash key 34b, which is a key used to calculate a balance which is the difference between the customer's payment amount and the subtotal of the sales amount. In addition to providing a general transaction termination key such as), a customer information input key 34c, which is a key used to input personal information of a customer, may be further provided.

Referring to the above-mentioned drawings, a detailed description will be given of a procedure in which a method for issuing a receipt customer according to the present invention is implemented on a cash register.

First, in step S10, it is determined whether the mode selected by the mode selection switch 32 of the key input unit 30 is the registration mode.

If the result of the determination in step S10 is not the registration mode, the process proceeds to step S12, where a work that can be performed on the other mode selected through the mode selection switch 32 is processed or waited.

However, if the current registration mode is selected as a result of the determination in step S10, the flow advances to step S14 to determine whether the customer information input key 34c provided in the function key group 34 of the key input unit 30 is input. .

If the customer information input key 34c is input as a result of the discrimination in step S14, the process proceeds to step S16 where the customer information, i.e., the purchaser's name, resident registration number or address, is input. At this time, if all of the customer information as described above is input and the input key provided in the function key group 34 is input, customer information input for one buyer is completed.

After performing step S16, the process proceeds to step S18 where the customer information input in step S16 is recorded in the corresponding storage area provided in the RAM 50.

In a subsequent step (S20) is set a customer information storage flag, that is, a flag indicating that the personal information of the buyer started the cash register operation has been entered and stored in the storage area.

On the other hand, if the customer information input key 34c has not been entered as a result of the determination in step S14, the process proceeds to step S22 and the subtotal key 34a or cash key 34b provided in the function key group 34; It is determined whether the same transaction end key is entered.

If the result of the determination in step S22 is that the transaction end key is input and the calculation of the price subtotal and the balance for the entire purchase history of one customer is completed, the process proceeds to step S24. Whenever data such as name, price and number of purchases are input, a receipt printed and printed through the printer 20 is cut from the resin roll and delivered to the customer.

After performing step S24, the process proceeds to step S26, where the storage area on the RAM 50 where the customer information is stored and the customer information storage flag are cleared.

On the other hand, if the transaction termination key is not input as a result of the determination in step S22, the transaction data input / output during the cash register, that is, the data such as the name of the product, the price and the number of purchases, are entered. Then, it is determined whether the currently entered transaction data is the first data entered after the start of the cash register.

If the result of the discrimination in step S28 is not the first transaction data input, the process proceeds to step S34 and the entered transaction data is printed at the corresponding position on the receipt.

However, in the case of the first transaction data input as a result of the determination in step S28, the flow advances to step S30 to determine whether the customer information storage flag set in the description of the preceding step S20 is set.

If the customer information storage flag is set as a result of the determination in step S30, the flow advances to step S32 where the customer information stored in the corresponding storage area on the RAM 50 is printed on the resin paper.

After execution of step S32, the flow advances to step S34, and the input transaction data is printed on the resin.

However, if the result of the determination in step S30 is that the customer information storage flag is clear, that is, if no personal information of the buyer who started the cash register operation has been entered or stored, the process proceeds directly to step S34 to print the customer data. Only the transaction data is printed on the receipt.

After performing steps S20, S26, and S34 as described above, the process returns and waits for key input.

The method of issuing a receipt for designating a customer of a cash register according to an embodiment as described above may be carried out in various modifications within the range allowed by the technical idea, and the term 'step' used in the detailed description of the invention It is to be understood that the term 'step', which will be used in the claims, may not be semantically inconsistent.

According to the method of issuing a receipt customer designation of the cash register according to the present invention as described above, by printing the personal information of the buyer on the receipt, it is effective to prevent others other than the purchaser from using the receipt to obtain an unfair advantage such as tax benefits. have.
