The customer input by the input means for inputting the customer specifying information for specifying the customer for each transaction at the time of the product registration process when it is determined that the shopping bag is not used by the determination means for determining whether or not the product is used. The number of shopping bag reduction stored in the customer information storage means for storing the number of shopping bag reduction for each specific information is added based on the customer specifying information, and the reduction is performed based on the added number of shopping bag reduction. Calculates the amount of plastic bags according to the number of sheets, and prints on the receipt data indicating the number of plastic bags reduced according to the entered customer identification information and the amount of plastic bags according to the calculated number of reduced bags It is intended to be edited in order.

  According to the present invention, it is possible to know how many plastic bags can be reduced as a retail store by notifying the number of plastic bags reduced, and it is possible to notify the number of plastic bags reduced for each individual, Furthermore, it is possible to provide a merchandise sales data processing apparatus that can know how much the shopping bag charge can be reduced as an individual.

Hereinafter, an embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.
FIG. 1 is a block diagram showing a main configuration of an electronic cash register 1 which is a merchandise sales data processing apparatus. The electronic cash register 1 includes a CPU 11 that constitutes a control unit main body, a ROM 12 that stores a product registration processing program, a RAM 13 that stores various data, a clock unit 14 that measures the current date and time, an I / O port 15, A control circuit is built in which a keyboard controller 16, a display controller 17, a display roller 18, a printer controller 19 and the like are connected by a bus.

  A mode switch 20 and a drawer opening device 21 are connected to the I / O port 15, a keyboard 22 is connected to the keyboard controller 16, an operator display 23 is connected to the display controller 17, and a customer display is connected to the display controller 18. 24 is connected, and the printer 25 is connected to the printer controller 19.

  The keyboard controller 16 captures a key signal corresponding to a key operated from the keyboard 22 and notifies the CPU 11 of the key signal. The display controller 17 displays data necessary for the operator on the operator display 23. The display controller 18 causes the customer display 24 to display data necessary for the customer. The printer controller 19 controls receipt printing, transaction report printing, and the like by the printer 25.

  Also, the keyboard 22 is a numeric key from 0 to 9 for entering numerical values, a “PLU” key for inputting product information, a “customer code” key for inputting a customer code, and a plastic bag. A “plastic bag” key, which is a plastic bag input means for inputting the presence / absence of use, a “subtotal” key for subtotaling registered product information, a “deposit / cash” key for closing registration, etc. Yes.

  The RAM 13 of the electronic cash register 1 includes an area for storing a transaction table 13a as a storage means and a customer table 13b as a customer information storage means, a plastic bag use flag area 13c for storing a plastic bag use flag, and a plastic bag. It has a plastic bag unit price area 13d for storing the unit price. A PLU table that stores product data such as product names and unit prices corresponding to numerical values that can be input with the keyboard 22 is also stored. However, since it is similar to a conventional PLU table, illustration and detailed description thereof are omitted. The product data set in the PLU table can be read by inputting the “PLU” key after inputting the numerical value.

  FIG. 2 is a diagram showing the transaction table 13a. The transaction table 13 a is a table that stores the contents of transactions performed in the electronic cash register 1. In the transaction table 13a, the contents of each transaction are stored in the item of sales. Specifically, the number of customer products purchased in the score area, and the number of customers who purchased the products in the customer area, The total price of the product is stored in the price area. In the item of net sales, net sales obtained from each transaction are stored. In the area of the number of shopping bag reductions, the cumulative number of shopping bag reductions is stored.

  FIG. 3 shows the customer table 13b. The customer table 13b is a table that stores transaction details for each customer code assigned to a customer. The customer table 13b stores the customer name, the number of transactions, the total amount of each transaction, and the number of plastic bags reduced for each customer code. As shown in FIG. 3, the customer name “A” is set for the customer code “1”, the customer name “B” is set for the customer code “2”, and the customer code “3” Customer name “C” is set.

  FIG. 4 is a diagram showing a plastic bag use flag area 13c for storing a plastic bag use flag. In this embodiment, “1” is obtained when a plastic bag is used when one transaction for selling a product is performed, and “0” when a plastic bag is not used when a transaction is performed. If the “plastic bag” key is input when registering the product, the value in the plastic bag use flag area 13c is “1”, and the “plastic bag” key is not input when registering the product. In this case, the value in the plastic bag use flag area 13c is set to be “0”.

  FIG. 5 is a diagram showing a plastic bag unit price area 13d. The unit price per shopping bag is stored in the plastic bag unit price area 13d. As shown in FIG. 5, for example, 10 (yen) is stored as the unit price per shopping bag. In the plastic bag unit price area 13d, the unit price of the plastic bag is input with the numeric key, and then the "plastic bag" key is input to store the unit price of the plastic bag in the one transaction.

  Next, a product registration process for registering one transaction product will be described. FIG. 6 is a flowchart illustrating a main part of the product registration process executed by the CPU 11.

  First, a customer code is registered (ST101), and then a product PLU is registered (102). Specifically, after the customer code assigned to the customer who makes one transaction with the numeric key is input, the “customer code” key is input, and after the product number of the product is input, the “PLU” key is input. The

  Then, the CPU 11 determines whether or not the “plastic bag” key has been input (ST103). If the “plastic bag” key has been input (YES in ST103), the CPU 11 determines whether or not the “plastic bag” key has been input. The flag in the bag use flag area 13c is set (“0” → “1”). If the “plastic bag” key is not input (NO in ST103), the flag in the plastic bag use flag area 13c remains reset (“0”).

  When the “deposit / cash total” key, which is the closing of registration, is input (ST105), the CPU 11 increments (+1) the area of the number of customer codes in the customer table 13b that matches the input customer code. (ST106). Then, the CPU 11 determines whether or not the plastic bag use flag area 13c is reset (“0”) (ST107, determination means).

  When the CPU 11 determines that the plastic bag use flag area 13c is reset (YES in ST107), that is, when the plastic bag is not used in the one transaction, the CPU 11 counts that the plastic bag has been reduced by one. . That is, the number of shopping bag reductions in the transaction table 13a is incremented (+1) (ST108, addition means for adding the reduction number of shopping bags stored in the storage means), and the customer table 13b that matches the input customer code The area of the number of shopping bag reductions in the customer code is incremented (+1) (ST109, addition means for adding the number of shopping bag reductions stored in the customer information storage means based on the customer specifying information).

  Next, the CPU 11 calculates a saving amount saved when the shopping bag is not used (ST110, calculation means). The amount of the plastic bag is input before the “plastic bag” key and stored in the plastic bag unit price area 13d. The amount stored in the shopping bag unit price area 13d is added to the area of the customer code amount in the customer table 13b that matches the customer code input as the saving amount.

  Subsequently, the CPU 11 performs editing for printing a message regarding the number of shopping bag reductions and the saving amount on the receipt (ST111, editing means), and resets the shopping bag use flag area 13c (“1” → “0”) ( ST112). When the plastic bag use flag area 13c is reset in this way, or when the plastic bag use flag area 13c is not reset in step ST107 (NO in ST107), the product registration process is terminated. When the product registration process is completed in this manner, the CPU 11 performs a process of operating the printer 25 to issue a receipt, a process of opening the drawer of the drawer opening device 21, and the like.

  Next, the operation of the electronic cash register 1 in the case where the operator uses a plastic bag when delivering the product to the customer and the case where the plastic bag is not used will be described.

  First, a case will be described in which a shopping bag is used when a product sold by an operator is delivered to a customer. The operator first inputs a customer code when registering a product purchased by a customer using the keys arranged on the keyboard 22. For example, when customer “C” purchases a product, “3” is entered and then “customer code” key is entered. And the product which a customer purchases is input. For example, when the product to be purchased is “Bread” or “Coffee”, the operator inputs the product number “1” assigned to “Bread”, then inputs the “PLU” key, and is “Coffee”. Enters the product number “2” assigned to “coffee” and then enters the “PLU” key. Subsequently, the operator inputs the price of the shopping bag. For example, if the plastic bag is 10 yen, enter “10” and then enter the “plastic bag” key. Then, after inputting the “subtotal” key, the “deposit / current total” key is input. When the product registration process is performed in this manner, the number of times in the customer table 13b is incremented, but since the “plastic bag” key is input, the number of plastic bag reductions in the transaction table 13a and the customer table 13b is not incremented. When the registration process is completed, a receipt 31 shown in FIG. 7 is issued from the electronic cash register 1.

  As shown in FIG. 7, the receipt 31 includes “C” indicating the customer, “Bread ¥ 200” indicating the sold product and price, “Coffee ¥ 100”, and “Plastic bag ¥ 10” indicating the price of the plastic bag. , “Subtotal ¥ 310”, “current total ¥ 310”, etc. are printed. However, a message regarding shopping bag reduction is not printed.

  Next, a case where the shopping bag is not used when the product sold by the operator is delivered to the customer will be described. The operator inputs a customer code when registering a product purchased by the customer using the keys arranged on the keyboard 22. For example, when customer “A” purchases a product, “1” is input and then “customer code” key is input. And the product which a customer purchases is input. For example, when the product to be purchased is “Bread” or “Coffee”, the operator inputs the product number “1” assigned to “Bread”, then inputs the “PLU” key, and is “Coffee”. Enters the product number “2” assigned to “coffee” and then enters the “PLU” key. Subsequently, the operator inputs the “subtotal” key without inputting the “plastic bag” key, and then inputs the “deposit / cash total” key. When the merchandise registration process is performed in this manner, the number of times in the customer table 13b is added, and since the “plastic bag” key is not input, the number of plastic bags reduced in the transaction table 13a and the customer table 13b is incremented. When the registration process is completed, a receipt 32 shown in FIG. 8 is issued from the electronic cash register 1.

  As shown in FIG. 8, the receipt 31 includes “A” indicating a customer, “Bread ¥ 200”, “Coffee ¥ 100”, “Coffee ¥ 300”, “Subtotal ¥ 300”, and “Current Total ¥ 300” indicating sold products and prices. Etc. are printed in the same manner as the receipt shown in FIG. 7, but the charge for the “plastic bag” is not printed because the plastic bag is not used. In addition, because we did not use plastic bags, we were able to reduce the number of plastic bags that customer A has reduced so far, as in the case of “I was able to reduce plastic bags. A message about the amount saved is printed.

  According to this embodiment, how many shopping bags can be reduced for each customer by printing on the receipt the number of shopping bags reduced for each customer when the shopping bags are not used. Can know. In addition, the customer can visually recognize the saving amount corresponding to the reduced number of shopping bags.

  Further, in the above-described embodiment, as shown in FIG. 2, the sales data and the number of shopping bag reduction are managed in the transaction table 13a. Therefore, the operator can operate the keyboard 22 to output (notify) a transaction report based on the sales data stored in the transaction table 13a and the number of shopping bag reductions.

  FIG. 9 is a diagram showing a transaction report 33 output by the operator. The transaction report 33 is printed with data such as “sales”, “net sales”, “tax”, “total sales”, and the number of shopping bag reduction “150”. The number of plastic bags reduced “150” indicates the cumulative number of plastic bags that have been reduced in the past transactions. That is, the operator can know how many plastic bags can be reduced as a store by operating the keyboard 22 to print the transaction report 33 and visually confirm the accumulated number of plastic bags.

  In addition, the customer and the operator can realize a reduction in the amount of garbage by visually confirming the number of shopping bags printed on the receipt 32 and the transaction report 33.

  Note that the present invention is not limited to the above-described embodiments as they are, and can be embodied by modifying constituent elements without departing from the scope of the invention in the implementation stage.
