Abstract

PURPOSE:To instantaneously grasp the sales quantity, sales amount, etc., of a commodity selling device through a POS register by connecting the commodity selling device to the POS register. CONSTITUTION:When the commodity seling device 100 selects a commodity, commodity sales information entered through a selection switch part 103 is stored in a data storage part 105. The commodity sales information stored in the data storage part 105 is sequentially informed to an I/O interface part 102 and transferred to the POS register 200 through a connection line 400. The commodity sales information inputted by an I/O interface part 202 in the POS resister 200 is stored in a data storage part 204. The commodity sales information stored in the data storage part 204 is informed to an I/O interface part 202, transferred to an I/O interface part 302 in a shop control information processor 300 through a connection line 400 and stored in an external storage device 307.

Description

[Detailed description of the invention] [Industrial application field] The present invention relates to a product sales information management system.

[Conventional technology]

Conventionally, as shown in FIG. 2, the product sales information management system does not connect the product sales device 10 to the POS register 20, but connects the POS register 20 to the store management information processing device 30, or even the store management information processing device 30. Centralized information processing device 5
0 are connected to each other.

The product vending device 10 is a device that vends soft drinks, cigarettes, etc., for example, and in recent years, as such vending fees have increased, vending machines are being installed at storefronts and roadside locations.

On the other hand, the POS register 20 manages product sales at the store, and the product sales information at the point of sale is stored on the keyboard 2.
6 or the touch scanner 27 and stored in the data storage section 24. Also, CRT25 has journal 2
8 can also be output.

The product sales information stored in the data storage unit 24 is transmitted to the store management information processing device 30 via the input/output interface unit 22 and the connection line 40, and is transferred to the business program storage unit 33.
After aggregation processing for the store is performed by a program in the store, the information is sent to the central information processing device 50. The centralized information processing device 50 centrally processes the product sales information sent from the store management information processing device 30, thereby calculating the order amount and making it possible to place replenishment orders for products.

[Problem to be solved by the invention]

In the conventional product sales information management system described above, the product sales device is not connected to other devices, so the sales volume, sales amount, etc. of the product sales device cannot be confirmed until the inside of the product sales device is actually examined. I can't. moreover,
The work of calculating the order quantity and placing replenishment orders based on the sales data examined is quite wasteful, and because the sales quantity and sales amount are not always known, it is delayed in determining the difference between best-selling products and dying products. There is a problem in that it causes an opportunity loss due to selling out.

[Means to solve the problem]

The product sales information management system of the present invention includes a product sales device that stores and sends product sales information such as product quantity and price when a selected product is automatically sold, and the sent product sales information and in-store sales. A POS register that stores and aggregates product sales information and sends it, and a POS register that aggregates and processes the sent product sales information for each store.
The present invention is characterized by comprising a store management information processing device that transmits data to a central information processing device that performs replenishment order processing.

〔Example〕

Next, the present invention will be explained with reference to the drawings.

FIG. 1 is a system configuration diagram of an embodiment of the present invention.

In this embodiment, the control unit 101. Input/output interface 1

A keyboard 30 is connected to a store management information processing device 300 having a touch scanner 306 and an external storage device 207 through a connection line 400, and a central information processing device 500
A network control device 401 used for communication with the store management information processing device 300 is connected to the store management information processing device 300. Product sales device 100゜POS register 200 and store management information processing device 30
0 is provided for each store, and a plurality of these devices are connected online to the centralized information processing device 500. moreover,
Multiple product sales devices] POS register 20 with one 00
0 and a plurality of POS registers 200 are connected to one store management information processing device 300.

The product vending device 100 is a vending machine for soft drinks, cigarettes, etc. When a product is selected, the product sales information imported by the selection switch unit 103 is stored in the business program storage unit 104.
The data is stored in the data storage unit 105 via the control unit 101 according to the internal program. The product sales information stored in the data storage unit 105 is transferred to the business program storage unit 104 at any time.
This is notified to the input/output interface unit 102 via the control unit 101 by the program in the controller. The input/output interface unit] 02 transfers product sales information to the input/output interface unit 202 of the POS register 200 via the connection line 400.

Input/output interface section 20 of POS register 200
The product sales information imported in step 2 is stored in the data storage unit 204 via the control unit 201 by the program in the business program storage unit 203. The product sales information stored in the data storage unit is displayed on the CRT 20 of the POS register 200.
5 and the journal 208. Further, product sales information when the product is sold at a store without using the product sales device 100 is input using the keyboard 206 or the touch scanner 207 and stored in the data storage unit 204.

Product sales information stored in the data storage section 204 of the POS register 200 is notified to the input/output interface section 202 via the control section 201 by the program in the business program storage section 203. The input/output interface unit 202 transfers product sales information to the input/output interface unit 302 of the store management information processing device 300 via the connection line 400.

Product sales information taken in by the input/output interface unit 302 of the store management information processing device 300 is stored in the external storage device 307 via the control unit 301 by a program in the business program storage unit 303. Product sales information stored in the external storage device 307 is sent to the control unit 3 by the program in the business program storage unit 303 at any time.
The input/output interface unit 302 is notified via 01. The input/output interface section 302 has a connection line 40
0, the product sales information is transmitted to the centralized information processing device 500 via the network control device 401. Centralized information processing device 5
00 calculates which product and how many items to order based on the received product sales information data and places a replenishment order.

〔Effect of the invention〕

As explained above, the present invention connects a product vending device and a POS register so that the sales volume, sales amount, etc. of the product vending device can be immediately grasped via the POS register. You can understand the sales trends of each product, including sales trends, and perform efficient sales management by determining which products are best sellers and which are likely to die. Also, since there is no need to inspect the inside of the product sales equipment every time,
This has the effect of reducing work time and labor costs.
