Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] [Industrial Application Field] The present invention relates to a file bookkeeping device that manages various files by classification based on various transaction contents such as sales and purchases.

[Conventional technology]

Conventionally, business personal computers have been used to issue sales slips for various sales products.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION Business processing devices such as office computers and general purpose computers are commonly used. By using these office processing devices, data processing is performed based on various input slips, and various management information such as sales information by item and sales information by customer can be easily obtained. and,
The above-mentioned various information is classified into various file groups connected to the above-mentioned office processing apparatus, such as ledger files, total files, management files, etc., and is stored and managed.

[Problem to be solved by the invention]

By the way, in order to store and manage information using a plurality of files as described above in the office processing device, a system engineer must design a file management system corresponding to each file in advance. In designing these systems, one of the bottlenecks for conventional office processing devices is the design of update programs for files. That is, the record structure of the file is different for each of the seven files, and the type of word that determines the record structure and the position of the word are different for each file.

Therefore, when updating the word content for individual files based on input data based on a predetermined input slip, it is necessary to design an update program for each file on a one-to-one basis. If there are a large number of files to be used, it takes a lot of time to design the program.

In addition, in the past, when managing input transaction details by item, the design was such that input records were classified into preset item classification levels (for example, individual product item level) and stored in a shield file. However, when making this design change, for example, there are many cases where the design is changed so that input records are classified at a different level from the above classification level (for example, product category level), and this In such a case, a design change would require the design of the entire file processing design or system processing design.

An object of the present invention is to enable storage management of input records by classifying them into desired classification levels using a simple setting button.

[Means to solve the problem]

This invention includes a designating means (for example, the category setting table 30 of the embodiment) for arbitrarily specifying the digits for the subclassification code (for example, the upper two digits of the subclassification code), each digit of which indicates the aggregation level; Extracting means (for example, the bookkeeping processing device 31 of the embodiment) for extracting the code corresponding to the above-mentioned digit in the subclassification code as another classification code when inputting a classification record distinguished by a classification code, and this extraction means A first aggregation means that aggregates the classification records according to other classification codes extracted by (for example, aggregates them into the item category file of the example); and a second aggregating means (to aggregate the item ledger file in the example).

[Effect]

First, specify the digits for the subclassification code, each digit indicating the aggregation level. Then, when inputting a classification record differentiated by the subclassification code, the extraction means extracts another classification code corresponding to the above-mentioned digit in this subclassification code, and the above classification record is first extracted according to the extraction code. Aggregation is performed using the following aggregation method. Further, a second aggregation means aggregates the classification records for each subclassification code before being extracted by the extraction means.

That is, by extracting a specific digit of the subclassification code as described above and totaling the records by classification for each code, and by extracting the records by classification for each subclassification code before extraction, it is possible to extract the records containing the subclassification code. With one classification code, it is possible to perform record aggregation management at the subclassification level and record aggregation management at other levels.

〔Example〕

Hereinafter, one embodiment will be described with reference to FIGS. 1 to 14.

(1) Configuration of the Embodiment FIG. 1 shows a system configuration diagram of a file recording device that processes variable length data. In the figure, reference numeral 11 denotes an input device, including a mode key for specifying various input modes, a provisional specification key for specifying the type of transaction (transaction), a numeric keypad,
Equipped with function keys etc. The above-mentioned input modes include a table edit mode for editing a bookkeeping setting table, which will be described in detail later, a word edit mode for editing a nap designation word, and a processing mode for performing slip recording processing. Then, the input device t1
Input mode designation data, transmission line designation data, edit data, etc. output according to the 1-Y key operation are sent to the edit processing device 12.

The edit processing device 12 accesses the type word file 13, bookkeeping setting table 14, index table 24, and category setting table 30. The provisional classification word file 13 includes a definition table (hereinafter referred to as A table) for defining the word salt of data to be input corresponding to the format of each insertion force slip, and a A definition table (hereinafter referred to as 0 table) for defining the conversion of input data into record data that matches the record structure of the standard slip file described later, and for defining various display formats for input slips, etc. Definition table (
A definition table (hereinafter referred to as table D) for defining various printing formats such as input slips (hereinafter referred to as table E) is set in advance for each processing content of various business processes.

Accordingly, the edit processing device flt1z edits the bookkeeping setting tape k14, edits the definition contents of the specified provisional product in the provisional classification word file 13, and edits the definition contents of each transfer based on instructions from the input device 1. One after another,
Processes such as editing the index table 24 and category setting table 3o are performed. Then, when the edit processing device 12 reads out the definition contents for each letter from the word file 13 for each letter, it inputs the table A into the word memory 15, the word C into the slip word memory 16, and the display word memory Dfi. 17, the E-table is loaded into the print word memory 18, and then a start command is given to the input processing device 2o. The A table loaded into the input column memory 15 is sent to the input processing device 2Q, the 0 table loaded into the slip word memory 16 is sent to the slip processing device 21, and the D table loaded into the display word memory 17 is sent to the display processing device. 22, the E table loaded into the print word memory 18 is successively outputted to the print processing device 23.6 Also, in the input processing bag f20, the input device 1
1 is connected, and the index table 24 and work memory 26 are also connected. The index table 24 stores, for example, the current date and the propagation (slip number) that is automatically updated each time a slip is issued, as well as item codes and item names corresponding to each item code. There is. Then, the input processing device 20 performs data input processing based on the A table read from the input word memory 15, and stores the input word data in the work memory 26, and the slip processing device 21,
The display processing device 22 and print processing device 23 are started. A standard chit file 27 is connected to the chit processing device 21 , and the chit processing device 2 starts processing operations in response to a startup command from the input processing device 20 . Standard slip record data is created based on the data and sequentially registered in the standard slip file 27. By the way, this standard slip record is a variable length record that combines a plurality of variable length word data, and each word data in the word code is classified by a specific control code.

Further, the display processing device 22 starts a processing operation in response to a startup command from the input processing device 20, and based on the D table stored in the display word memory 17, the display processing device 22 starts processing operations in the work memory 22 based on the
The word data within is read out to create display data, which is displayed on the display device 28.

When the print processing device 2j receives a startup command from the input processing device 2o, it creates slip data or form data in a specified format using the word data read from the work memory 26 based on the E table stored in the print word memory 1g17c. Then, the printer 29 is driven to print out the slip or form.

Thus, the travel standard slip record data registered in the standard slip 7 file 27 is continuously output by the bookkeeping processing device 31. This bookkeeping processing device 31 has a conversion memory 32 inside.
A 71 format memory 33 is connected together with the bookkeeping setting table 14 and the category setting table 30. The bookkeeping processing device 31 is
The bookkeeping command from the input device 11 is activated, and the bookkeeping setting table 14, category setting table 30, conversion memo I)
Based on the data stored in the 32,7-aisle format memory 33, the standard slip record registered in the standard slip file 27 and the file update record (this record is also a variable-length record consisting of multiple words, hereinafter referred to as a maintenance record) ) is created and written into the maintenance memory 34. This maintenance memory 3411
C stores a plurality of maintenance record data,
An update command from the input device 11 or the bookkeeping processing device 31 is sent to the file update device 35, and based on this maintenance record data, corresponding files in the ledger file group 36, total file group 32, and management file group 38 are updated. Processing is performed.

Therefore, in the above-mentioned word file 13 for slips, the definition contents for each slip slip are set as described above, but for example, tables A and 0 are specific when processing slips for "Credit sales". Specifically, the settings are as shown in FIG. Table A defines word salts and word conditions for associating input data with word salts so that they can be handled as word data from now on, and consists of three items: al, al, and a3. That is, in al, each word of "Customer name 9 date, slip number (slip number)" is used as the heading word,
In al, the words "item name, code, quantity, unit price, amount (quantity x unit price)" are set as item words, and in a3, the word "total amount" is set as a post-heading word.

Here, the word condition of the index indicating that each word salt of "date, propagation, unit price" among the above word salts is a word input by referring to the index table 24,
Each word of “Customer name 2 Product name, Quantity” is input device 11
The input word condition indicating that the word is input by key operation in , and the word salt of "amount (quantity x unit price)" indicate the calculation word condition in which the calculation formula is written in word salt. In addition, table 0 converts the input record data for the sales slip of "Credit sales" input based on table A into unified standard slip record data, and registers this record data in the standard slip file 27Vc. It is defined by the items C1eCj, C3, and C4. That is, "standard slip file" is set as the file name to be updated in C1, a code indicating "addition" is set as the update type in C2, and word salt (standard word salt) in the standard slip file 27 is set in Cj and C4. ) and the word salt (input word salt) specified by the above table A is set. For example, "year, month, and day" in C3 above.
Information standard word names such as "amount", "debit item", etc. are preset in a fixed order. Then, the input word name of C4 in each pseudo product is set corresponding to each standard word salt. For example, the input word value of "date" is set for the standard word value of "year, month, day," and the input word value of "amount" is set for the standard word value of "amount." By the way, the input word value of "debit" is set. subject” [credit subject j, [
], ``Transaction Item'', ``Accounting Year/Month'', each standard word salt does not have a one-to-one correspondence with the word salt in Table A above. This is because these standard word salts are uniquely determined by the content of the tentative product or the transaction date. For example, if the tentative product is “credit sales” as in table 0 in Figure 2, each of the above standards “Accounts receivable” and “sales” for word salt r20J
, r50J, r63.3j word data (W, 2
In the 0 table in the figure, the value (indicated by the symbol []) is uniquely set.

By using Table A and Table 0 above, each insertion slip in any format desired by the user can be converted into a single standard slip whose word content has been unified in advance, and can be stored and managed. Each fii! File group 36-3
The file update process using the record of the standard slip for 8 can be simplified. Furthermore, since the settings for the A table and the 0 table are only the word salt settings, even the user can set them extremely easily and freely. In other words, in table A, it is sufficient to set the order in the order that matches the input slip in any format desired by the user.
Furthermore, since a standard word salt is set in the 0 table, the input word salt may be set to correspond to this standard word salt.

When printing out the contents of each bundled file group 36 and 38 updated in this way, each record in the designated file is read into the work memory 26 via the input processing device 20, and this record is also printed out. Based on the E table stored in the word memory 18, printing is performed by the printing device 29 via the printing processing device 23.

Next, the bookkeeping processing device 31 in FIG. 1 uses the record of the standard slip registered in the standard slip file 27 to update the files of the ledger file group 36, the total file group 37, and the management file group 38. (
The bookkeeping setting table 14, category setting table 30, file format memory 33, and conversion memory 32 used when creating a maintenance record will be explained.

First, in the bookkeeping setting table 14, as shown in FIG. 3, there are "Tane Ward", "Transaction Item", and "Transaction Name".

"File Bookkeeping Classification", "District (Transaction Classification) Bookkeeping Classification"
The items are set in advance. In the “Transaction Name” item above,
"Orders""Creditsales""Orders""Creditpurchases"...
Each immediate transaction content such as ``File Recording Classification'' is set as ``Account Ledger File'', ``Accounts Receivable Billing Ledger File'', ``Accounts Payable Billing Ledger File, 1'', ``Account Summary File'' [ Items are provided for each file, such as "accounts receivable billing summary file", "accounts payable billing summary file", "item management file" [sales partner management file j, etc. Then, for each item in the above "File Recording Classification", a flag 1" is set in the part corresponding to the various transaction contents of the above "Transaction Name", so that the file to be updated can be specified according to the transaction contents. For example, if a "Credit Sales" transaction is made while the flag is set as shown in the bookkeeping setting table 14 in Figure 3,
"Account Ledger File", "Accounts Receivable Billing Ledger File", "
"Account Summary File", "Accounts Receivable Billing Summary File", "
The files ``Item Management File'' and ``Seller Management File'' are updated.

Note that the flag for the above-mentioned "file entry classification" can be freely set by the input device 1) via the edit processing device 12 described above.

In addition, in the category setting table 30, 1, for example, 4th
As shown in figure (al) [Item management j, "Sold to customers management"
, "File Recording Classification" such as "Seller Management J", the category classifications of "Item Code", "Seller Code", and "Seller Code" are set respectively. That is, each code above is set by a 5-digit code number, for example, as shown in Figure 4(b), and in the case of an "item code", the top two digits are the category and the bottom three digits are the serial number, or , "Seller code" and "Seller code", the top three digits are the category and the bottom two digits are the consecutive numbers, so "2" is set as the category classification for "Item management" and "Sales" First management”
And "3" is set as the category classification of "seller management".

Furthermore, the file 7 format memory 33 defines the record structure of various files existing in the 1 ledger file group 36, the total file group 37, and the management file group 38 using word salt, and the record structure is shown in FIG. It is set as follows. For example, the following words correspond to the "account ledger file": "Tokoma (our account)", "Japanese-French (date propagation)", "Wado (opposite account)", "Mizotaka", "Loan amount" Salt is defined and corresponds to "Item management 7 isle" as "Item"
, ``year/month'', ``district'', ``mizotaka'', and ``loan amount'' are defined. In this case, for this "item management file", "item category file J,!: r
Two files are provided: ``Priority Item File''.

In addition, a conversion memory 32 provided in the bookkeeping processing device 31 converts the variable length record data in the N@ slip file 27 into variable length record data of the file to be updated among the various file groups 36 to 38. , defines that the corresponding 7 isles should be updated with this record data W
A table is set up for each file. ! Figure 6 shows the correspondence between each file and the W tables (W7 table, Wl table, . . . ).

Figure 7(a), (bl is the above W1 table, Wx table,
Among the W tables in ..., the Wl table (corresponds to the item category file).

A specific setting example of the W9 table (corresponding to the item ledger file) is shown. These W tables are Wl, Wl
, W3, and W4, and in WIVC, a file name such as [Item Category File] is set as the file name to be updated, in Wl, a code indicating "aggregation" etc. is set as the update type, and in W3゜W4. A correspondence is set between the word salt of each file (file word name) and the word salt of the standard slip (standard word salt). For example, in the Wl table that defines updates to the "item category file", the record structure of the "item management file" is "
For each file word "Item", "Year/Month", "Military Amount", "Loan Amount", each standard such as 1 category Bud of standard slip record, "Year/Month J, r/J "Amount" etc. The word salt is set in association with each record condition.

That is, this W7 table defines that a file update record is created from all standard slip records for one prefecture, and that the "item category file" is updated using this update record. In addition, in the W9 table that defines updates to the "item ledger file", for each file word salt of "item", "year/month/date", "number of people", and "decimal", as shown in Figure 7 (blVc), , standard slip records such as "Item code", "Year/Month/Date J", "R/J", "Quantity", etc. are set in association with each other.This W9 table is created from a file from all standard slip records for one slip. It is defined that an update record is created and the "item ledger file" is updated using this update record.

(2) Operation of the embodiment Next, the operation of the above embodiment will be explained. When performing bookkeeping processing, a processing mode is first selected and designated by key operations on the input device 11, and then a provisional product is designated. This key operation activates the edit processing device 12, which reads out the definition contents (A table, 0 table, D table, 8 table) set corresponding to the specified temporary product from the temporary product classification word file 13 and responds accordingly. Then, the input processing device 20 is started.

The input processing device 20 executes the processing shown in the flowchart of FIG. 8 in accordance with the A table loaded in the input data memory 15 in response to a startup command from the edit processing device 12. The input processing device 20 first activates the display processing device 22 and displays the format of the designated temporary location on the screen according to the D table loaded into the display word memory 17.

For example, if "Credit sales" shown in Figure 2 is specified as a provisional product, then A2 is stored in the input memory 15.
Since the table has been loaded and the D2 table has been loaded into the display word memory 17, the "credit sales" as shown in FIG.
The format will be displayed on the screen. The input processing device 20 also prepares for inputting word data corresponding to the word salt specified in the A2 table (step AZ). In this step 81, when data of arbitrary length corresponding to the word salt is input from the input device 1, it is determined whether the input data is a product name word or not.Step A2) If it is a product name word, it is The item code corresponding to the item name is successively retrieved from the index table 24 to determine whether it is a priority item (
Step A3゜A4). If it is not a priority item, leave it as is.
If it is a priority item, a priority flag *” is added to the item code (
After step A5), the item name and item code are written into the work memory 26 (step 86).

Further, if data other than the product name word is input from the input device 1, the process advances from step A2 to step A7,
The input data is associated with the word salt and written into the work memory 26 as variable length word data. Thereafter, in step 88, it is determined whether or not all the word data for one slip has been inputted, and if not, the process returns to step AI. Thereafter, the processing of Stella fA1 to A8 is repeated until all the word data for one slip has been input, and when it is determined that the input of word data for one slip has been completed (step 88), the slip processing device A start command is given to 21 (step A9). Through the above processing, a credit sales slip as shown in FIG. 12 is created, and all word data for one slip is stored in the work memory 26. In this Figure 12, "150
3 0 yen calculators 101, 2000 yen watches 201
An example is shown in which 6 units of the same product were sold.

The slip processing device 21 starts up in response to a startup command from the input processing device 2Q, executes the slip processing shown in the flowchart of FIG. A variable length standard slip record is created based on the stored variable length word data and is registered in the standard slip file 27. That is,
The slip processing device 21 first starts with an internal standard slip record creation register (this register has the same record structure as the standard slip file 27, and has a one-to-one register for each standard word salt as shown in FIG. 2). (having a storage area corresponding to the button) is cleared (step BJ). Then, from the slip word memory 16, ``Debit Account'', ``Credit Account'', ``Line Section'', and ``Transaction Account'' are retrieved.

The data corresponding to the word "accounting year/month" is successively written to the corresponding storage area of the record creation register, and the input item code is used as a key in the index table 2.
4 is indexed to read out whether it is an important item or not, and write it into the corresponding storage area of the record creation register (step B2). Next.

Step B3) to specify one item in the work memory 26, in this case an item for "Calculator IQ1";
Word data related to this item, in this case E date""Amount""Customer""Number6""Productname""
r entered corresponding to each word "Quantity" and "Unit Price"
62, 10, 8J.

r4.500J, l'-A store J, J123Jrl
Each word data of lloIJ, r3j rl, and 500J is written into the corresponding storage area of the record creation register (step B4). Next, data corresponding to the word "loss" is calculated by a separate calculation routine and written into the corresponding area of the record creation register (step B5). Then, the standard slip file 2 is created using the record data of the standard slip created in this register.
7 is "added" and updated and registered (step Bg).

As a result of the above processing, the standard slip file 27 is
As shown in FIG. 1K, standard slip record data related to "Calculator 10" is registered. After that, the process goes through step B7 to determine whether processing for one slip has been completed or not.
'BIK return, work memory 2 is returned by the same process as above.
The next item in the input document in step 6, that is, “Clock 2
The standard slip record data regarding “01” is shown in Figure 13 (b
) and is registered in the standard slip file 27.

When the processing for one slip is completed as described above, the status is determined by the Stella 7''B7, and the standard slip record creation process is ended.

By using input slips set in the user's desired format (word content and order), it is possible to create a unique standard slip record with unified word content and order.

In particular, the A and 0 tables are set in one-to-one correspondence depending on the type of input slip, so even if the format of the input slip is completely different for each issued slip, the Various input record data can be integrated and stored and managed using a single unified standard slip record as described above.

However, after creating the above standard slip record.

When a bookkeeping operation is performed by key operation on the input device 11, a bookkeeping command is sent to the bookkeeping processing device 31VC, and the bookkeeping process (each file group 36 to 38) shown in the flowchart of FIG.
(processing to create a maintenance record for updating) is executed.

When the bookkeeping processing device 31 is given a bookkeeping command from the input device 11, it first outputs the first standard slip record data from the standard slip file 27 (step C1), and the "insert section" and The transaction in the bookkeeping setting table 14 is specified by the word data corresponding to the word "transaction item" (step CJ). The rlt console 101 shown in Figure 13 above
In the case of a standard slip record of
50'', the transaction ``Credit sales'' is specified in the bookkeeping setting table 14 of FIG. 3, and among the file names in the file bookkeeping category, the file names with the flag ``1'' set are sequentially specified. That is, first, the file name of the "account ledger file" is specified (step C3). Next, among the fi1w tables in the conversion memory 32, the W table corresponding to the file name of "account ledger file", that is, the W1 table, is specified.

Based on this W1 table, from the standard slip record for one slip (in this case, the two standard slip records shown in Figure 13 (a) and (b)), maintenance record data of all types for the "account ledger file" is immediately extracted. Maintenance record data in which standard word data "accounts receivable" and "sales" of "debit account" and "credit account" are assigned to the file word of "this piece" (in this case, "Mizotaka")
The word data corresponding to the file word name of "Amount owed" is the total amount for one slip, that is, the sum of the amounts for "Calculator 101" and "Clock 201", "16°500".
is assigned) (Step 7fC4). After registering these two types of maintenance record data in the maintenance memory 34 (stayfc5), it is determined whether or not there is an unspecified file name among the flagged file names in the above file entry classification. (Step C6). In this case, there is an unspecified file name, so return to step C3.#) Specify the next file name "Accounts receivable billing ledger file" and specify the W2 table corresponding to this file name. Then, based on this W2 table, maintenance record data is created from one pArIL slip record designated in step C above, that is, the record in FIG. 13(a), and is registered in the maintenance memory 34. Next, specify the next file name "account summary file" from the bookkeeping setting table 14, perform the same process as the creation of maintenance record data for the six [account ledger file] described above, and create two types of maintenance record data. It is created and registered in the maintenance memory 34. In the same way, steps 03 to C6 are repeated for all file names specified by the flags in the file accounting category, creating all maintenance record data for all files to be updated for transactions of "Credit sales". and register it in the maintenance memory 34. Then, after creating all the maintenance l/code data, stay f
Proceed to step 07 via C6 and save the standard slip file 27.
It is determined whether there is unread standard slip record data. If unread standard slip record data remains, the process returns to Stay 7'C1, the above-described processing is performed on the standard slip record data, and the created maintenance record data are sequentially registered in the maintenance memory 34. The standard slip file 27 is created by the above process.
When the processing for all standard slip record data registered in is completed, its status is determined in step C7.

The maintenance record data creation process ends.

By the way, in the above process, the bookkeeping setting table 14
If the file name "Item management file" is specified,
The maintenance record creation in step C4 is performed according to the flowchart shown in FIG. That is, in step D1 of FIG. 11, the bookkeeping processing device 31 sets the number of category classification digits "2" or "3" set as "item management" based on the category setting table 30 shown in FIG. 4 (al). Then, the data for the standard word (item code) of "item" in the standard slip record, for example, the upper two or three digit category code is extracted from rllloIJ (step D2).
Based on the conversion memory 32 of the item category file, in this case (() is the standard slip record for "Calculator 101" in Figure 13 (al) based on the conversion word W7 shown in Figure 7 (a), the item is categorized. A maintenance record with the code "1 iJ" is created as shown in FIG. "Calculator 1" in FIG. 13(a) based on word W9
01" standard slip record, one item with item code r
1101j is created as shown in FIG. 14(b) (step DJ).

The "calculator 101" shown in FIG. 13 (a) is created as described above.
From the standard slip record of , maintenance records of "item category file" shown in FIG. 14 (al) and "item ledger file" shown in FIG. 14 (b) are created and registered in the maintenance memory 34. Figure E13 (
Maintenance records of the "Item Category File" shown in FIG. 14<c) and the "Item Ledger File" shown in FIG. 14(d) are created in the same way from the standard slip record of "Clock 201" shown in b). , maintenance memory 3
411C is registered.

When the maintenance record data creation process by the bookkeeping processing device 31 is completed, the file updating device 35 is activated by an update command from the bookkeeping processing device 31 or the input device 11, and each maintenance record data registered in the maintenance memory 34 is Based on this, file updates are performed for each file group 36-38.

In order to update this file, the file update device 3
5 first reads maintenance record data registered in the maintenance memory 34 one by one and analyzes this record data.

That is, it is analyzed from the maintenance record data what update is to be performed on which file and with what word content. For example, in the case of the maintenance record data shown in FIG. 14(a), "Item Category File" is determined as the file name, "Total" is determined as the code indicating the update type for the file, and "116210, /, 4500" is determined as the code indicating the update type for the file. Each word data is determined as file word data. the result.

The "item category file" in the management file group 38 is designated as the file to be updated, and the file word data is "collectively" updated to this file. Similarly, in the case of the maintenance record data shown in FIG. 14 (bl), the "item ledger file" in the management file group 38 is designated as the file to be updated, and the file word data is "totalling"
Updated. Furthermore, in the case of the maintenance record data shown in FIGS. 14(C) and (d>), the "item category file" and "item ledger file" in the management file group 38 are sequentially specified as the files to be updated. The file word data for this designated file is "aggregated" and updated.

In this way, the file update device 35 identifies the file to be updated and the update type for that file, and updates the file word data to be updated based on the individual maintenance record data registered in the maintenance memory 34. The process for updating various files can be extremely simplified.

By the way, in the above embodiment, various records such as standard slip records and maintenance records are processed as variable-length records by dividing each word constituting the record with a specific control code, so the input word Even if the length is different for each transaction, or the word length or record length of the file is completely different for each file, it is completely independent of the input word composition of each transaction or the record composition of each file. Standard voucher records and maintenance records can be created.

In addition, in the above embodiment, the "item code" for identifying and classifying each product is used as the sub-classification code, and the "item code" is used as another classification code.
Similarly, regarding other subclassification codes such as "seller code" or "seller code," refer to the contents of the category setting table 30 shown in FIG. 4(a). The "person category code" may be classified and tallied separately as another classification code. Also, when specifying another classification code, please be sure to specify the top two or three digits of the above subclassification code, because you want to divide the above subclassification code into higher-level classifications and aggregate them. However, the digits that can be specified are not limited to these, and may be, for example, the lower three or two digits.

Furthermore, although the standard slip record in the above embodiment is made up of variable length records, it goes without saying that it may be made up of fixed length records.

〔Effect of the invention〕

According to this invention, a part of the subclassification code is used to generate other classification codes, so one classification record including the subclassification code can manage record aggregation of classification level A and other classification codes. record aggregation management at the level of

Furthermore, the other levels mentioned above can be specified very easily because they only specify the digits to be compared.
