As shown in this figure, a general ECR system kisses the key input unit 20 and the key input unit 20 for generating a mode designation signal and various key codes for money registration, and the mode of the ECR according to the received key code. The central processing unit 10 for performing various functions in the designated mode, the ROM 30 having the system operation program embedded therein, the RAM 40 storing various data including deposit and withdrawal details, and the central processing unit ( Under the control of 10), a printer 50 for issuing documents for customer receipts and various processing results, a display unit 60 for displaying various information related to money transactions, etc. under the control of the central processing unit 10, and predetermined key operations. And a power supply unit 80 for supplying power to the entire system.

In the ECR as described above, in using the ECR, the clerk registration is performed in order to manage the responsibility of the ECR operation and the sales performance for each clerk. In the past, various methods have been used as a method of registering a clerk. As a representative example, a clerk is registered by assigning a password to each clerk and entering a clerk number after the clerk inputs his clerk number. There is a way.

As described above, the reason for registering a clerk using a password is that if there are many clerks, the sales performance of each clerk or sales hours are managed. This is to ensure that the time and working hours are stored correctly.

However, there are times when an administrator wants to manage a clerk by assigning a password, but sometimes a manager wants to be able to register a clerk immediately without using a password.

However, in the past, there is no way to register a clerk using a password or to register a clerk without using a password. There is a problem that you must register the clerk after programming the password and entering the corresponding password.

Hereinafter, with reference to the accompanying drawings will be described in detail a cashier registration environment setting and registration method of the cash register according to an embodiment of the present invention.

FIG. 2 is a key configuration diagram illustrating an example of a key input unit in FIG. 1. As shown in the figure, the key configuration of the key input unit 20 of the ECR to which the method of the present invention is applied is variously provided in the mode switch 21 and the ECR used to designate a desired operation mode among various operations of the ECR. Among the functions, a function key group 23 used to execute a desired function, an item key group 25 used to designate a desired item, and a numeric key group used to input a price or a corresponding numeric code of various items (27) ) The function key group 23 may include a 'sales clerk' key 23a necessary for the clerk registration and a 'registration environment selection' key 23b which is necessary for the clerk registration environment setting.

In the above-described configuration, the general operation modes of the ECR include a program mode which is a mode used to change the program contents of various files and tables used in the ECR, a registration mode which registers and processes various transaction information generated at the point of sale, There are settlement mode and stop mode.

3 is a flowchart for explaining a cashier registration environment setting and registration method of the cash register of the present invention. As shown in this figure, first, whether or not to use a password to register the clerk, that is, in order to set the clerk registration environment, the operation mode of the ECR must be switched to the program mode in step S10. Determine whether the operation mode of the current ECR is a program mode. If it is determined in step S10 that the operation mode of the ECR is the program mode, the process proceeds to step S12, where the registration environment selection key 23b for switching to the clerk registration environment selection program mode for selecting the clerk registration environment is selected. Judge whether there is input. As a result of the determination of step S12, if the input key is not the 'registration environment selection' key 23b, the process proceeds to step S13 to perform a function of another program mode, and the input key is the 'registration environment selection' key. In the case of 23b, the process proceeds to step S14 where a registration environment is selected whether or not to use a password for registering the clerk. That is, a key for selecting whether or not to use a password to register a clerk after the input of the 'selection environment selection' key 23b, for example, a clerk key, a clerk number, and a password to enter a clerk registration. If you want to register the clerk by inputting only the clerk key and clerk number without using the password for numeric key 0, if you enter the clerk key without entering the password or clerk number, the clerk will be registered immediately. If you want to do so, select the numeric key 2. In the case of selecting the numeric key 0 or the numeric key 1 above, the sales performance, working hours, etc. of each clerk are managed by the clerk. If the numeric key 2 is selected, the sales staff or the working hours of the clerk are managed. This is not the case.

After receiving the registration environment in this way, in step S16 it is determined whether a password is selected (numeric keys 0). If it is determined in step S16 that the password is not required (numeric keys 1 or 2), the password is not required, and thus, the clerk registration environment selection program mode is exited. If it is determined in step S16 that a password is required (numeric keys 0), the process proceeds to step S18 to receive and register the password of each clerk. As a method of inputting the clerk's password in step S18, after the clerk number is input, the clerk's password is input and the clerk key 23a is input next.

As described above, in the program mode, the registration environment for how to register the clerk in the registration mode is set.

Hereinafter, the process of registering the clerk in the registration mode will be described. In step S20, it is determined whether the operation mode of the ECR is a registration mode. If the operation mode of the ECR is not the registration mode in step S20, the process proceeds to step S21 to perform a function of the corresponding mode. If the operation mode of the ECR is the registration mode, the process proceeds to step S22. Determines whether the clerk registration environment programmed in mode is programmed to register a clerk using a password (ie, selected with numeric key 0). As a result of the determination in step S22, when the clerk is not registered using the password, that is, when the password is not used (numeric keys 1 or 2), the process proceeds to step S30 to use the clerk number. It is determined whether it is programmed to register a clerk (ie, whether it is selected with the numeric key 1 or whether to manage sales results for each clerk). If the result of the determination in step S30 is programmed to register the clerk using the clerk number (that is, the numeric key 1), proceed to step S32 to receive the clerk number and the clerk key 23a and finish the clerk registration. The flow proceeds to step S26 to perform a sales registration function. If the result of the determination in step S30 is not programmed to register the clerk using the clerk number (i.e., select with the numeric key 2), proceed to step S34 to receive only the clerk key 23a and finish the clerk registration. The flow proceeds to step S26 to perform a sales registration function.

If it is determined that the password is required as a result of step S22, the process proceeds to step S24 and sequentially enters the clerk number of the clerk, the clerk's password and the clerk key 23a registered in the step S18. After the clerk registration is completed, the process proceeds to step S26 to perform a sales registration function.

The cashier registration method of the cash register of the present invention is not limited to the above-described embodiment, and various modifications can be made within the range permitted by the technical idea of the present invention.

According to the cashier registration environment setting and registration method of the cash register of the present invention as described above, the cashier registration environment so that the cashier can register using a password when registering the cashier or register the cashier without using a password. After selecting and setting, you can register the clerk according to the selected registration environment.
