Description

Title: A computer implemented method for mimicking a printer and so amending a print job to record a transaction, as well as a corresponding module and computer program product.
Description The present disclosure is directed to a computer implemented method of mimicking a printer and so amending a print job to record a transaction as well as a corresponding module and computer program product.
Nowadays, a lot of hassle exists with dealing with paper tickets, receipts, paper invoices and other paper printed transactions. Paper recorded transactions are printed for example at a gas station, a retail store, a restaurant, a food outlet or anything alike. These paper recordings will be handed in to administrative personnel periodically. The administrative personnel then is responsible for processing the printed data on that paper recording by typing that data into administration software or digitalizing this paper recording by e.g. OCR or got the already digitalized data to process this data in this manner to administration software.
The above stated process may be perceived as a cumbersome and tedious time consuming process which may additionally be sensitive to typing errors (shift the comma one position to the right or left), all kinds of frauds, money evasions or anything alike.
As such, there is a need for improving the transaction recording procedure such that the process is less sensible for (human) errors and fraud, a need to speed up the process plus a need for guaranteed authenticity.
In a first aspect, there is provided a computer implemented method of amending a print job for a transaction, wherein said method comprises the steps of: - mimicking, by said module, a printer; - intercepting, by said module, a print job towards said printer, wherein said print job comprises said transaction, and wherein said print job comprises meta data that is associated with said transaction; - retrieving and ordering, by said module, at least a portion of said meta data from said intercepted print job;
- converting, by said module, said ordered portion of said meta data into a graphical representation such as a two-dimensional barcode; - amending, by said module, said intercepted print job by adding said graphical representation to said intercepted print job, and; - forwarding, by said module, said amended print job to said printer.
As expressed and stressed above, by mimicking a printer, the present disclosure is directed to the concept that there is no need for already existing (cash) register systems to be amended. These (cash) register systems are arranged for creating a transaction, and to send the recording of a transaction in a print job to the printer.
The present disclosure is directed to intercepting that particular print job by mimicking a printer.
In the context of the present disclosure, mimicking means that the (cash) register system is not even aware that the print job is intercepted and amended. Intercepting and amending entails without altering or changing or without direct or indirect influence of the print job generating soft- or firmware, without any substantial effort of the print job generating software. Though the disclosure can be fully integrated in that print job generating software as well.
It is further noted that the printer, responsible for actually printing the transaction, is unaware of the fact that the print job has been intercepted.
One of the advantages of the present disclosure is that e.g. a paper recording is created which has a graphical representation, e.g. a barcode, containing the meta data of the actual transaction. The graphical representation may be used to quickly retrieve, by said module, the relevant data associated with the transaction and verify in the same way the authenticity of the data.
This may thus be beneficial in the administrative process, wherein administrative personnel are responsible for processing the recorded transaction. In that case the data is retrieved, by said module, from the graphical representation, and is decrypted and verified again before it be used.
One of the advantages of the present disclosure is that a recording of the transaction is created which has a graphical representation, e.g. a barcode, containing meta data of the actual transaction, service or refund. The graphical representation may be used to quickly retrieve the relevant data associated with the transaction.
This may thus be beneficial in the administrative process, wherein administrative personnel are responsible for processing the transaction. In that case, the data is retrieved from the graphical representation, and is decrypted and verified again by said module before it be used.
In accordance with the present disclosure, a transaction may comprise a purchase, a refund, a service, a receipt, a prescription or anything a like.
In accordance with the present disclosure, ordering may also comprise re-ordering at least the portion of the meta data from the print job.
In accordance with the present disclosure, the module is arranged to mimic a printer. It is noted that the module may also be arranged to mimic the transaction server to the printer such that the printer perceives as if it communicates with the transaction server.
In an example said meta data comprises any of: - one or selected amounts associated with said transaction; - one or selected amounts of Value Added Taxes, VAT, associated with said transaction; - selected VAT percentages associated with said transaction; - one or selected identifications of a party associated with said transaction; - one or selected VAT numbers of said party associated with said transaction; - combined identifications created between parties involved in said transaction, being a unique identification.
It is thus noted, that parts of the above described data may be automatically retrieved from the print job, or may be initially set once. For example, a particular transaction of the associated (cash) register system may be automatically analysed, using OCR software, for determining the amount(s), the VAT, the identifications of a delivering party or anything alike. Another option is that the specific data is identified, manually, and set before starting the method.
In a further example, the method further comprises: - adding meta data to said ordered portion of said meta data.
Here, the step of adding comprises:
- adding a predefined VAT number of said delivering party associated with said transaction to said ordered portion of said meta data.
It is thus noted that the data may, after being verified again, be enriched with specific data to enable automatic processing by administrative software packages and links to and for payment service providers. For example, it may be verified whether the identification data present in the graphical representation actually matches with predefined criteria.
For example, the data needed for payment processing may be incorporated in the graphical representation as well. This data may be enhanced, amongst other, with the standard payment term date in order to enable deferred payment automatically.
In a further example, the method further comprises the steps of: - determining that any of said portion of said meta data does not match with a predefined meta data, and - based on said determination, issuing an alert message towards an alert server.
In a second aspect of the present disclosure, there is provided a module arranged for amending a print job for a transaction, wherein said module comprises: - mimicking means arranged for mimicking a printer; - intercepting means arranged for intercepting a print job towards a printer, wherein said print job comprises said transaction, and wherein said print job comprises meta data that is associated with said transaction; - retrieve means arranged for retrieving and ordering at least a portion of said meta data from said print job; - conversion means arranged for converting said encrypted ordered portion of said meta data into a graphical representation such as a two- dimensional barcode; - amend means arranged for amending said intercepted print job by adding said graphical representation to said intercepted print job, and; - forward means arranged for forwarding said amended print job to said printer.
It is noted that advantages of the present disclosure as explained with reference to the first aspect of the invention are also applicable to the second aspect of the invention, being the module.
In an example, said module further comprises: 5 - encrypt means arranged for encrypting said ordered portion of said meta data; and wherein said conversion means arranged for converting said encrypted meta data into said graphical representation.
In a further example, said meta data comprises any of: - one or selected amounts associated with said transaction; - one or selected amounts of Value Added Taxes, VAT, associated with said transaction; - selected VAT percentages associated with said transaction; - one or selected identifications of a party associated with said transaction; - one or selected VAT numbers of said party associated with said transaction; - combined identifications created between parties involved in said transaction, being a unique identification.
In an example, said module further comprises: - add means arranged for adding meta data to said ordered portion of said meta data.
In an example, said module further comprises: - add means arranged for adding a predefined VAT number of said party associated with said transaction to said ordered portion of said meta data.
In an example, said module further comprises: - a processing unit arranged for determining that if any of said portion of said retrieved meta data of said print job does not match with predefined meta data based on said determination, issues an alert message towards an alert server. It is noted that the advantages in accordance with the first aspect of the present disclosure are also applicable to the examples as provided with the second aspect of the present disclosure.
In a third aspect of the present disclosure, there is provided a computer program product comprising a computer readable medium having instructions stored thereon which, when executed by a module, cause said module to implement a method in accordance with any of the examples as provided above.
