Description

TECHNICAL FIELD OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to a sales data processing device such as an electronic register arranged in a store.

[Prior Art] Generally, an electronic register is provided with a memory for storing sales total data corresponding to product categories, and the input sales data of each product is converted into sales total data in the memory according to the classification. It is configured to accumulate. Further, as described in Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 56-31162, some electronic registers manage inventory quantity information. This electronic register is provided with a memory for storing the stock quantity information corresponding to the classification of products, and subtracts the stock quantity information every time sales data is input. Then, this inventory quantity information is displayed on the display unit, and particularly when the inventory quantity is zero, the symbol "S" is displayed.

In this electronic register, it is necessary for the operator to confirm the displayed inventory quantity and to judge the necessity of ordering or the like. For this reason, even if the stock quantity is displayed, there is a risk that the display may be overlooked, and there is a drawback that the subsequent work such as ordering cannot be performed smoothly. Furthermore, the work such as ordering is very complicated, such as the creation of order slips and the sending to the ordering party, so that there is a drawback that it cannot be processed accurately and promptly. It is considered that automatic ordering should be performed to eliminate such a drawback.

[Problems to be Solved by the Invention] However, since the sales data processing device is used when conducting a transaction with a customer, there is a problem that the customer is kept waiting depending on the timing of automatic order processing. Can be considered. In addition, the ordering process must be performed many times, and the ordering process cannot be performed efficiently.
In addition, it may take a long time to check the stock quantity of all products and search for the products to be ordered when performing the order processing.

An object of the present invention is to store sales data of a type required for ordering processing at the time of registration, and to store the sales data when the registration processing is completed. To do so.

[Means for Solving the Problems] Means of the present invention are as follows.

The sales data storage means stores the sales data by type.

The transmission data storage means stores the transmission destination data, the reference value of transmission propriety, and the order management information corresponding to the type of sales data.

The updating means updates the sales data based on the input data.

The determining means determines, when the sales data is updated by the updating means, whether the updated sales data has reached the reference value stored corresponding to the type of the sales data.

When the determination unit determines that the reference value has been reached, the writing unit outputs order data indicating that order processing is necessary as order management information corresponding to the type of the updated sales data. Write.

The registration processing end determination means determines whether or not the registration processing is completed.

The transmission means stores the transmission destination stored for each type of sales data for the type of sales data in which the order data is written, when the registration processing end determination means determines that the registration processing is completed. Predetermined ordering information is transmitted to the destination indicated by the data.

[Operation] The operation of the means of the present invention is as follows.

The sales data stored by type in the sales data storage means is updated based on the input data. At the time of this update,
When the determination unit determines whether or not the updated sales data has reached a reference value stored in advance for each type, the order management is performed by the writing unit corresponding to the type of the updated sales data. Order information indicating that order processing is necessary is written as information. Further, the registration processing end determination means determines whether or not the registration processing is completed, and when it is determined that the registration processing is completed, regarding the type of sales data in which the order data is written by the transmission means, the sales The ordering information is transmitted to the destination indicated by the destination data stored in advance for each type of data.

Therefore, the type of sales data that requires the ordering process is stored at the time of registration, and when the registration process is completed, the ordering process is performed on the stored sales data. Orders can be processed without inconvenience to customers.

[Embodiment] An embodiment will be described below with reference to the drawings. Figure 1 shows
For example, the configuration of a terminal device on the retail store side that performs data communication relating to ordering of merchandise on the wholesale store side using a telephone line is shown. That is, the transmission control unit 1 is connected to the telephone line, and the CPU
It is bidirectionally connected to the (central processing unit) 2.

The CPU2 is a circuit that controls various operations according to various microinstructions stored in advance, and includes A, B, C, i,
It is composed of a RAM (random access memory) 2A having j and FZ registers, an arithmetic unit 2B for performing various arithmetic operations, and a control unit 2C for storing microinstructions. Thus, the above A, B, C
The register is an arithmetic register, the i register is an address register of a transaction-based memory and a classification-based memory to be described later, the j register is an evacuation memory address register described later, and the FZ register is a flag after the transaction-based key operation. This is a flag register in which "1" is set and the flag "0" is set after other key operations.

The transaction-based memory 3, the classification-based memory 4, and the save memory 5 are all configured by RAM. The transaction-specific memory 3 is a memory for storing transaction-specific data such as cash sales and lending of products traded with customers at retail stores, and the classification-based memory 4 is product-specific data. The save memory 5 is a memory for temporarily storing the addresses of the classified memory 4 corresponding to the commodities that must be ordered, for example.

The input unit 6 is provided with various keys necessary for registration processing, inspection processing, settlement processing, etc. relating to product transactions, and the output of each key is input to the CPU 2 for processing. The various processing data of the CPU 2 are displayed or printed by the display unit 7 and the printing unit 8 connected to the CPU 2, respectively.

A clock circuit 9 is also connected to the CPU2.
The timekeeping data of is read out to the CPU 2 when a commodity transaction is performed.

FIG. 2 shows a memory map of the classified memory 4.
That is, the categorized memory 4 stores the product name, sales amount and number, inventory quantity, order inventory quantity, order quantity, supplier, order flag (Fla
It has a storage area that stores a large number of items g) for each product.
Thus, the ordered stock quantity means a standard stock quantity which is considered to occur when the stock of the product reaches the ordered stock quantity. The product name and the number of orders are the order information (described later).
Treated as.

Next, the operation of the above embodiment will be described with reference to the flowchart. In this example, immediately after the registration of the product, it is determined whether or not the stock quantity of the product has reached the ordered stock quantity, that is, whether or not the ordered stock quantity has been reached. Further, the actual ordering work using the telephone line is carried out collectively when the number of products to be ordered reaches a predetermined number N, and further, it is carried out after the completion of the registration processing which does not cause any trouble to the customer.

The flowchart of FIG. 3 is started after the power of the terminal device is turned on. That is, first, in step S ₁ , it is determined whether the flag of the flag register FZ is “1” (present) or “0” (absent). And after the operation of the transaction-specific key, i.e., if after the registration processing is completed are set to "1", a predetermined number address data of the address register j for saving memory 5 proceeds to step S ₂ in which case It is determined whether or not N or more. On the other hand, if the flag of the flag register FZ is "0",
Proceeds to step S _11, whether the key input is determined.

When the process proceeds to step S ₂ , if the number of data in the save memory 5 is equal to or more than the predetermined number N, the ordering process by the telephone line in step S _{2 and} below is executed, while if the number is not equal to the predetermined number N, the ordering process is performed. Proceed to step S ₁₁ .

Proceeding to step S ₁₁ , the process of determining the presence / absence of a key input is executed, and if there is no key input, the process returns to the initial state of step S ₁ . On the other hand, if there is key input, it proceeds to step S _12, whether the operation key or categorical key is determined is the start of the registration process when an operation of categorical key is determined by Thus, step registration process proceeds to S ₁₃ is executed, CPU 2 is traded by the memory 3 and writes the new data to the categorical memory 4. That is, the sales amount and the number of cases are accumulated, and the number of stocks is subtracted. Further, the registered contents are displayed on the display unit 7, and the printing unit 8 prints on the receipt and the journal paper.

On the other hand, when an operation key other than the classification key is determined, it means that the other processes other than the registration process are started, and step S ₁₉
And other processing is executed, and when the processing ends, the processing returns to step S ₁ .

Proceeds to step S ₁₄ when the registration processing of step S ₁₃ is completed, the current inventory quantity judgment processing whether it is less ordered stock for that product currently registered commodity is performed. In this case, according to the address of the address register i of the memory 4 for classification, the number of stocks and the number of ordered stocks of the current product are read out from the memory 4 for classification, and the CPU 2 judges. If the stock quantity is not less than the ordered stock quantity, the process returns to step S ₁ , while if it is less than the ordered stock quantity, the process proceeds to step S ₁₅ and the order flag of the product is already set to “1”. It is determined whether or not it is set.
Also in this case, the contents of the order flag of the product are read from the classified memory 4 and the CPU 2 makes a judgment. Then, if the order flag has already been set, the process returns to step S ₁ , while if it has not been set, the process proceeds to step S _16, where the data in the address register i, the clogging, the transaction-specific memory 3 and the classification of the merchandise registered this time are classified. The address data in the memory 4 is written in the save memory 5 at the address indicated by the address register j. Then the process proceeds to step S _17, the address register j is updated by +1. Next, the process proceeds to step S _18, the order flag for this time of the registration commodity is set to "1", the flow returns to step S _1.

As described above, by the processes of steps S ₁₄ to S _18,
Immediately after the registration process is completed, the stock quantity judgment process for the product is performed, and if the stock quantity is less than the ordered stock quantity, the address and order flag of the classified memory of the product are set. It is something.

Next, the ordering process using the telephone line will be described. Step S ₂
If the address data of the address register j of the save memory 5 is larger than the predetermined number N,
The ordering process below S ₃ is executed. That is, first, the step
Address of the save memory 5 indicated by S ₃ the address register j is transferred to the address register i, then the trade name in step S _4, the order information and vendor consisting order number is read.

Then the vendor call is performed (step S _5), order information is started transmitted if there is a response (Step S _6). In this case, the product name, the number of orders, and the date and time data read from the clock circuit 9 are collectively transmitted as one block of data. The vendor in the printing unit 8, order information (i.e., product name, and order quantity), date, time is printed (step S _7). Then address register j is -1 (step S _8). Then, in step S _9, whether or not the data of the address register j is set to "0", jam, whether or not finished all of the ordering of goods is determined, until the end to Thus returns to the step S _3, step S Each processing of _{3 to} S ₉ is repeated. And because the data of all the need is ordering the address register j is "0", the process proceeds to step S _10,
The address register j is incremented by "1", after the initial state, the process proceeds to step S _11.

By the process of step S ₂ to S ₁₀ described above, ordering operations when sewn is more ordered items predetermined number N is completed. Then, when a product is received from a wholesale store at a later date, the order flag of the product is cleared and the stock quantity data is input.

In the above embodiment, the order transmission process is performed after the registration process for one customer is completed, but it may be performed at the time of inspection or settlement. Further, it may be possible to perform a process of considering an item as an item to be ordered when the sales amount or the number of items of the item reaches a specific amount or number, not when the ordered item reaches the ordered item number. Further, the judgment at the time of ordering may be made based on the data for each transaction instead of the data for each category. Instead of placing an order when N types of ordered products are collected, the ordered products may be ordered one by one when they occur.

Further, the transmission method may be either in-line or online.

[Effect of the Invention] According to the present invention, sales data of a type that requires ordering processing at the time of registration can be stored, and when the registration processing ends, ordering processing for the stored sales data can be performed. Order processing can be performed quickly without searching for products to be ordered at the time of ordering. In addition, the customer is not inconvenienced by waiting for the customer, and the order processing can be collectively performed for a plurality of types of sales data, so that the efficiency of the order processing is significantly improved.
