[0012]

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS As shown in FIG. 1, an apparatus for a voucher automatic printing service system according to the present invention basically comprises a card reader 2 for reading information stored in an IC card 1, and a reading device. An arithmetic processing device 3 having a storage device for performing arithmetic processing on the information data as described later, an input device 4 for inputting to the arithmetic processing device 3 so as to perform various processes, and displaying the processing contents And a printer 6 for printing on a slip. Preferably, the processing unit 3 is connected via a data transmission line 7 to a computer 8 of a distribution center and / or a computer 9 such as a bank or a credit company.

The IC card 1 is basically used as personal information on the user himself / herself, destination information on a destination where the user usually sends gift items, and electronic money or a credit card. And necessary card information. The personal information includes authentication information necessary for confirming that the user of the IC card is the user, and personal attribute information about the user, such as the address and name of the user. The destination information includes destination attribute information on the address, name, etc., of the other party who sent the past gift items, and history information on the product name, shipping date, etc., of the delivery product for each destination. Here, it will be easily understood that the authentication information may share the password data normally included in the card information.

The configuration of each piece of information of the IC card 1 is to be appropriately selected according to the available memory capacity of the RAM of the IC card, and is not particularly limited.
However, since the available memory capacity is relatively small, the memory can be used efficiently by using the configuration illustrated in Table 1 and FIG.

In this case, the personal attribute information is composed of four items of name, postal code, address, and telephone number, and each item is provided with a tag number. As is clear from the above, the authentication information consists of only one item of the password. The destination attribute information is composed of four items of name, zip code, address, and telephone number of each destination, and each item is also provided with a tag number. The history information is the previous delivery item information for each destination, that is, the name or type of the delivery item, the product price,
It consists of three items on the delivery date, and each item is also given a tag number.

Each piece of information other than the authentication information is stored in the memory of the IC card as a series of data starting from the tag number, following the variable length item contents corresponding to the tag number, and ending with the end code. For effective use of the memory capacity, it is desirable that the contents of the items be compressed and stored.

The apparatus for a voucher automatic printing service system of the present invention shown in FIG. 1 is operated according to a flowchart shown in FIG. This flowchart is basically
This is a case of a fully automatic service system that automates from creation of a delivery slip to reception and arrangement of delivery, and settlement of payment. However, as can be easily understood from the description below, only the creation of the delivery slip is automated, and the subsequent processing is performed by the clerk in the same manner as in the past, and the clerk handles only after the payment settlement. Also, partial use is possible.

The customer operates this apparatus to insert his / her IC card 1 into the card reader 2 and outputs a personal identification number or ID.
The code is input by the input device 4. The arithmetic processing unit 3 reads only the authentication information (the password data in the case of sharing with the card information) in the personal information stored in the IC card through the card reader, and inputs the password or the ID.
It is determined whether the user is a valid user by checking the code. As a result of the comparison, when it is determined that the user is a valid user, the arithmetic processing unit 3 displays the personal attribute information in the personal information, the destination attribute information in the destination information, and the history information stored in the IC card on the display unit 5. I do.

The customer takes into account the history information of each destination displayed on the display unit, and determines whether or not each destination of the destination attribute information is desired to be delivered, and a desired product to be delivered (usually designated by a product number). And the number are specified by the input device 4.
At this time, when the desired destination is not stored in the IC card, or when the address of the person or the destination is changed, only the destination or the personal attribute information, or the destination or the personal attribute information and the current It is preferable to be able to issue a handwritten delivery slip in which only the desired product and the number of the delivery items or all items except for the changed items are printed. Furthermore,
Various requests from customers (for example, when it is undecided to select products to some or all destinations, when you want to meet face-to-face with a clerk, when you pay by cash, etc.) Issue a delivery slip for handwriting so that
It is preferable to configure so that the C card can be ejected and the operation can be completed.

When all designations have been completed, the name of each destination, the name of the product to be delivered, the product purchase amount, the shipping fee, the total amount, and the total amount are displayed on the display unit 5, and the final confirmation of the delivery item is made. Ask for. Once the delivery item is confirmed, the payment method (e.g., cash payment, use of credit,
(Payment by electronic money). In the case of cash payment, it is preferable to accept by cash transfer machine, but the burden of equipment cost is very large, so it is realistic to issue a handwritten delivery slip and process it at the reception counter as described above. is there. On the other hand, in the case of using a credit or paying electronic money, a predetermined payment process is performed electronically after collation of the person is performed using the personal identification number data of the card information. At this time, when the personal identification number data of the card information is shared as the authentication information, the process for confirming the identity of the individual is unnecessary.

When all processes are completed, a copy of the delivery slip and the payment slip is printed out by the printer 6 and discharged.
At the same time, the current delivery item information is stored in the history information in the memory of the IC card, and the IC card is discharged from the card reader 2 and returned to the customer. On the other hand, the printed delivery slip is normally sent to a delivery center and sent to each destination together with the designated delivery product. However, preferably, by transmitting the contents of the print on the delivery slip from the processing unit 3 to the computer 8 of the delivery center via the data transmission line 7 in real time, it is possible to make the delivery work faster and to make the final delivery work possible. It is possible to contribute to cost reduction.

When there is a change in the personal attribute information and the destination attribute information stored in the memory of the IC card described above, it is possible to set up a program so that the customer can correct it on the spot. However, in general, customers who are unfamiliar with computers often operate, and even if operated by a clerk, it causes a delay in window operations and should be avoided as much as possible. For this reason, after the delivery reception business is completed, the host computer makes a change in the content of the change, and the program is programmed so that the memory of the IC card can be changed later when the IC card is used. Should be.
