Abstract

La présente invention concerne un système de traitement d'informations (2000) qui est pourvu : d'un dispositif d'enregistrement de produit (3000) ; d'un premier dispositif de règlement (4020) ; d'un second dispositif de règlement (4040) ; d'une première unité de traitement (2020) ; d'une seconde unité de traitement (2040) ; et d'une unité de commande (2060). La première unité de traitement (2020) associe des informations de règlement avec le premier dispositif de règlement (4020). La seconde unité de traitement (2040) soit associe les informations de règlement avec des informations d'identification lues dans un support portatif dans le second dispositif de règlement (4040), soit émet les informations de règlement au support portatif. L'unité de commande (2060) commande si les informations de règlement doivent être traitées dans la première unité de traitement (2020) ou la seconde unité de traitement (2040).
