[Detailed description of the invention]

TECHNICAL FIELD The present invention relates to a money settlement processing device that settles sales proceeds of a store or the like in multiple ways. One of the operations of banks is the outsourcing process of calculating the sales proceeds of stores and the like. This consignment processing is, for example, aggregation processing of the sales proceeds put into the night deposit, and each store in the rental building collects the sales proceeds of the products on that day and records the sales with the store's account number etc. as the transaction number. The money is put into a night deposit bag along with the statement slip and deposited into the night deposit, and the next day the bank collects the deposit bag and calculates the sales for each store. and,
In this outsourcing process, a coin sorting and counting machine and a banknote counting machine are connected to a settlement device to rationally settle the sales proceeds of each store. By the way, stores that are open on Saturdays and Sundays also put their daily sales proceeds into a deposit bag after closing and make a night deposit, but banks do not accept night deposits because they are not open on Saturday afternoons or Sundays. As a result, deposit bags accumulate for two days. Therefore, multiple deposit bags from the same store may occur. Also, if the same store has multiple branches,
Deposit bags from each fulcrum are separately deposited into the night deposit, but if each branch uses the same bank account number, this account number is used as the transaction number and the same transaction number is attached to the sales statement. However, there will be multiple deposit bags with the same transaction number. Therefore, in conventional banks, a bank representative writes a series of numbers on the statement slip in advance, regardless of the store name or the store's account number, and manually enters these numbers into the payment machine from an input device such as a coin sorting and counting machine. I was inputting it to
Therefore, when inputting a series of numbers from an input device, it may be entered incorrectly, resulting in problems such as the result of classification processing by the payment device being sales data for a different store, or that there is no corresponding store. was occurring. When such a trouble occurs, it is necessary to perform the classification and counting process again. The present invention has been made in view of the above-mentioned points, and it is possible to automatically assign different processing numbers to the statement slips included in the deposit bag, and to perform classification and counting processing individually based on these processing numbers at the time of aggregation. The purpose of the present invention is to provide a payment processing method in a money payment processing device that can automatically perform separate classification and counting processing even if there are a plurality of deposit bags from the same store. The present invention will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. FIG. 1 shows a schematic configuration of a money settlement process according to the present invention, which includes a settlement device 10, one coin sorting and counting machine 20 and two banknote counting machines 30 connected to this settlement device 10, It consists of 40. The coin sorting and counting machine 20 is provided with an operation box 21 and a processing number printing device 50, and the two banknote counting machines 30 and 40 are provided with operation boxes 31 and 41, respectively. Here, the processing number printing device 50 is used to automatically print processing numbers sequentially on the statement slips to be processed.The statement slips are inserted into the printing unit 51 and a registration key (described later) in the operation box 21 is pressed. Then, the processing number is output to the printing device 50 and the payment device 10, and the processing number is automatically printed at a predetermined position on the statement slip (for example, on the back side of the statement slip). The payment device 10 uses the coin sorting/counting machine 20 and bill counting machines 30, 40 to process the coins based on the commands from the operation boxes 21, 31, 41 and the processing number printed by the processing number printing device 50, respectively. input the counted data and perform the predetermined payment processing. The coin sorting and counting machine 20 is a well-known coin sorting and counting machine that inputs coins to be counted into a hopper 22, counts them by denomination, displays them on a counting display section 23, and stores the counted coins in a storage box 24. Also, the banknote counters 30 and 40 may be well-known devices capable of counting the number of banknotes by denomination.

shows. Most of the keys and display section of this operation panel 300 perform the same functions as the keys and display section of the operation panel 200 shown in FIG. 2, and the same reference numerals as in FIG. The explanation will be omitted. However, in FIG. 3, the denomination key 206 is "10,000 key" corresponding to the denomination of the banknote,
It consists of "5,000 keys", "1,000 keys", and "500 keys". The operation panel 300 is provided with a bill input lamp key 313, which is unique to bill counting machines. This bill input lamp key 313
This is provided because the banknote counting machine is configured to count banknotes by denomination.When the banknote counting machine has finished counting banknotes of a certain denomination, the light will turn on, and the denomination will be displayed to input the counted denomination. When the key 206 is pressed, the light is turned off. Although the operation panel of the operation box 41 provided in the banknote counting machine 40 is not shown,
It has the same configuration as the operation panel 300 described above. FIG. 4 is a block diagram showing the hardware configuration of the money settlement processing device according to the present invention.

1 and 50-2 are connected to each other. The payment device 10 is a central processing unit (CPU) 101
, a control bus 121 and an address bus 12 connected to this central processing unit 101.
2. A memory interface 105 that connects the read-only memory (ROM) unit 102, random access memory (RAM) unit 103, and drum 104 to the data bus 123; and an operation console interface that connects the operation console panel key group 106. 107, a printer control unit 109 connected to the printer unit 108, coin sorting and counting machines 20-1, 20-2, operation boxes 21-1, 21-2, banknote counters 30-1, 30-2, 40-1, 40-2, operation box 31-1, 31-2, 41

1 and 50-2. Here, the operation console panel key group 106 includes at least a payment processing mode, a recording/printing mode switch, and various processing mode correction processing keys. Further, the printer unit 108 is used to perform journal printing of payment processing data. Next, the operation of the block diagram shown in Fig. 4 will be explained in Fig. 5.
This will be explained along with the payment processing flowchart shown in the figure. Before starting the payment process, data necessary for the payment process, such as date, is input into the payment device 10 in advance using the operation console panel key group 106, and the payment mode is set. Further, the sales proceeds and statement slips to be accumulated are taken out from the deposit bags collected from the night deposit, and sorted by bag, for example, in a basket (not shown). Also coin sorting count 20-1,2
0-2, and bill counting machines 30-1, 30-2,
The operator numbers of the operators in charge of 40-1 and 40-2 are also in each operation box 21-1, 21-2, 31-1, 31-
2, 41-1, and 41-2, respectively. For example, the operator in charge of the coin sorting and counting machine 20-1 first enters the store number attached to the statement slip, for example "123," from the operation box 21-1 using the store number key 202, numeric keypad 207, etc.
Operate the equal key 205 in this order to input. Upon input of the store number, the central processing unit 101 reads the store number in response to an interrupt command from the interrupt control unit 120, allocates a store number memory area to the drum 104,
And the store number is registered in the memory table. An example of the contents of this memory table is shown in Table 1.

[Table] As shown in Table 1, the memory table stores the operator number (OP), store number, processing number, and the total amount of coins and banknotes described below. For example, if operator number ``10'', store number ``123'', and processing number ``0001'' are already stored, and the same store number ``123'' is subsequently input, the data regarding this store's statement will be updated to the next new one. Another memory area is specified because the processing number "0002" is added. Now, the operator code and store number input so far are displayed on the A display 209, so that the operator can visually check them. Next, the operator inserts the statement into the processing number printing device 50-1 and operates the registration key 216 of the operation box 21-1. As a result, the operator number and store number processing number are printed at a predetermined position on the statement slip, for example, on the back side of the statement slip. Here, serial numbers with different initial values are used for each process number printing device 50-1, 50-2. For example, the process number printing device 50-1 uses sequential process numbers starting from 0, and the process number printing device 50-2 uses sequential process numbers starting from 1000. Furthermore, when printing the processing number, it is printed in two different locations to ensure accuracy. Figure 6 shows an example of this printing, ``10''
is the operator number "123" is the store number, "0002" is the processing number, there is only one operator number,
The store number and processing number are printed at two predetermined locations on the back side 60 of the statement. At the same time as the processing number is printed on the statement, information indicating the processing number is output from the operation box 21-1. As a result, the central processing unit 10
1 specifies the corresponding processing number area and ROM
The coin sorting and counting machine 20 is operated through the control bus 121 in accordance with the program of the section 102. Next, the operator inserts only coins out of the sales proceeds in the basket (not shown) into the hopper 22 (FIG. 1) of the coin sorting counter 20-1. Coin sorting and counting 2
0-1 sorts coins by denomination and counts them. The coins sorted here are stored in the storage box 24. At this time, the operator
If the account number is input from -1 and the counting end key is operated, the coin sorting and counting machine 20 will automatically stop. The count data is stored in the buffer memory of the RAM section 103. When the counting is completed, the operator checks the counted value for each denomination and the total value displayed on the count display section 23 of the coin sorting and counting machine 20-1 with the counted value for each denomination and the total value listed on the statement slip. do. Next, if the statements match, the RAM
The data stored in the buffer memory of section 103 is stored in the corresponding area of drum 104. Further, if the statement slip and the count value do not match, the correction key 211 is operated to correct the denomination and amount, and the central processing unit 101 corrects the contents of the buffer memory of the RAM section 103 and stores it in the drum 104. let When the above settlement processing is completed, the operator number is displayed again on the A display section 209, and the same settlement processing as now is performed for the next sales proceeds. Next, the bill and statement slip remain in the basket for the sales proceeds after the coin settlement process is completed, so the bill counter 30
-1, 40-1 is passed to the operator in charge. Settlement processing for banknotes is also performed by the same operation as the coin processing described above. In the case of banknotes, the processing number already printed on the statement slip is input from the operator box 30-1 or 40-1 and counted for each denomination.For example, when counting 10,000 yen notes, Enter the account number, and when counting is complete, press the bill input lamp key 3.
13 lights up, and when "10,000" of the denomination key 206 is operated, the bill input lamp key 313 goes out. Through this operation, the current count data is stored in the buffer memory of the RAM section 103, assuming that it is a 10,000 yen note, and the same operation is repeated for each denomination. Also,
By inputting the denomination, the count data of the 10,000 yen note is displayed on the B display section 210, and if it does not match the statement slip, re-counting or manual counting is performed and the denomination key 206, correction key 211, Numeric keypad 207,
Correct input is made by sequentially operating the equal key 205. When all denominations have been counted, enter the processing number again and check if it matches the previously input processing number. If they do not match, enter the processing number again. If they match, the contents of the buffer memory will be transferred to the drum 104.
is memorized. When all the payment processing is completed, the mode of the payment device 10 is switched to record printing mode, and if various printing commands are input, the central processing unit 101
According to the program in the ROM section 102, necessary data such as processing number, store, operator, total, etc. are read from the storage contents of each total area of the drum 109 and sent to the printer section via the printer control section 109. The recording is printed from 108. In the above payment processing, the coin sorting and counting machine 20-1 and the bill counting machine 30-1 or 40-1 were used to perform the counting process, but the coin sorting and counting machine 20-2 and the bill counting machine 30-1
2 or 40-2 can be similarly counted. In addition, if the quantity is small and can be counted by hand, input may be made by operating the denomination key 206, (11-2), numeric keypad 207, or equal key 205 of the coin sorting and counting machine 20 or banknote counter 30, 40. . In addition, in the above embodiment, a configuration using two coin sorting and counting machines and four banknote counting machines was shown, but the same configuration can be applied when a large number of coin sorting and counting machines and a large number of banknote counting machines are used. Of course. As explained above, according to the present invention, even if there are multiple deposit bags from the same store, the operator no longer has to worry about memorizing or recording transaction numbers each time, and a transaction number is automatically assigned.
Settlement processing is performed according to this processing number. and,
Data regarding deposit bags from the same store is stored separately and distinguished by processing number, so when printing out records of payment processing results, even if there are multiple deposit bags from the same store, they are printed together by processing number. It is possible to improve settlement operations.
