Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION [Industrial Application Field] The present invention relates to a sales data processing device such as an electronic register and a POS.

[Prior Art] Generally, a restaurant or the like provides a set menu in which a plurality of products (menus) are combined. In order to register this set menu with an electronic register or the like, the electronic register or the like is generally provided with a memory in which, for each set menu, the link data for linking the product identification data of the products included in the set menu to each other is stored in advance. Has been.

[Problems to be solved by the invention] By the way, when a part of the products included in the set menu is out of stock, the set menu itself is not generally stopped and replaced with the out-of-stock product. We offer set menus by combining products.

In such a case, conventionally, it was necessary to change the setting of the link data. Moreover, the operation for changing the setting of the link data needs to be performed twice, that is, when switching to the alternative product and when returning to the original when the out-of-stock product arrives, and at the same time, the operation is troublesome. It was very inconvenient because it kept customers waiting.

An object of this invention is to make it possible to easily output a substitute product when a designated product is out of stock.

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

Storage means a (see the functional block diagram of FIG. 1, the same applies hereinafter)
Stores the stock quantity data of the product and the product code of a substitute product that can replace the product when the product is out of stock, corresponding to the product code.

The designation means b designates a product for sale registration according to an input operation.

The stock quantity reading means c reads the stock quantity data corresponding to the product designated by the designating means b from the storage means a.

The discriminating means d discriminates whether or not the designated product is out of stock based on the stock quantity data read by the stock quantity reading means c.

The substitute product reading means e reads the product code of the substitute product corresponding to the designated product from the storage means a when the determining means d determines that the stock is out of stock.

The display unit f displays the alternative product based on the product code of the alternative product read by the alternative product reading unit e.

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

Corresponding to the product code, the storage means a stores the stock number data of the product and the product code of a substitute product that can replace the product when the product is out of stock.

When the designating means b designates a product to be registered for sale in response to an input operation, the stock quantity reading means c reads the stock quantity data corresponding to the designated goods from the storage means a, and based on the read stock quantity data. The discriminating means d discriminates whether or not the designated product is out of stock.

When the discriminating means d discriminates that the product is out of stock, the substitute commodity reading means e reads out the commodity code of the substitute commodity corresponding to the designated commodity from the storage means a, and the display means f.
Displays the alternative product based on the product code of the alternative product read by the alternative product reading means e.

Therefore, when a product to be registered for sale is designated and the product is out of stock, a substitute product that can replace the product can be easily displayed.

[Embodiment] An embodiment will be described below with reference to FIGS. 2 to 6.

FIG. 2 is a block diagram of a sales data processing device. In this sales data processing device, the CPU 2 variously processes the sales data input from the key input unit 1 according to a program stored in advance in the ROM 3, and outputs the processing result to the RA.
It is stored in M4, displayed on the display unit 5, and printed by the printing unit 6. Then, the drawer 7 is opened by operating a predetermined key of the key input unit 1, and money is stored.

The key input unit 1 is a mode selector switch 1A for switching and setting modes such as registration (R), setting (P), inspection (X), checkout (Z), and power OFF, and a unit for inputting a product code number and the like. It has several keys 1B and a function key 1C for instructing various processing contents. As the function keys 1C, in addition to the execution key 1c ₁ for executing the registration processing based on the input data, the cancel key 1c ₂ for canceling the input data, the numerical values input by the numerical key 1B are respectively set products. It has a set key 1c ₃ and a single product key 1c ₄ indicating a code number and a single product code number. Then, by operating the key of the key input unit 1, a code corresponding to the key is generated,
It is input to the CPU 2.

The CPU 2 has a control unit and a calculation unit, and the control unit is
The input code is analyzed, and various signals are output to the RAM 4, the display unit 5, the printing unit 6, etc. based on the analysis result, and the arithmetic unit executes various arithmetic processes under the control of the control unit. .

The RAM 4 stores the sales data in various modes under the control of the CPU 2, and the RAM 4 stores the sales data for each PLU in a cumulative manner in addition to the memory M1 for each PLU.
Another memory M2 for storing business record data and the like is formed. The memory M1 for each PLU is composed of a set product memory M11 and a single product memory M12.

As shown in FIG. 3, the set product memory M11 has an area for storing a set product code number, a set product character corresponding to the set product code number, a unit price,
The total number of sales, the total amount of sales, and an area for storing a single product code number of a single product included in the set product, respectively.

As shown in FIG. 4, the single-item product memory M12 has an area for storing a single-item product code number, and the character, unit price, total number of sales, total amount of sales of the single-item product corresponding to the single-item product code number The number of stocks, the average number of sales per hour, the time required for delivery, and the area for storing the individual product code number of a substitute product (single product) that can substitute for the product.

In the set product memory M11 and the single product memory M12,
The total number of sales and the total amount of sales are cumulatively stored under the registration mode. However, the stock quantity in the single product memory M12 is subtracted under the registration mode.

The set product code number and the single product code number are distinguished by the most significant bit, and when the most significant bit is “1”, the set product code number is set as shown in FIGS. When it is “0”, it indicates a single product code number. The content of the most significant bit is designated by the set key 1c ₃ or the single product key 1c ₄ . That is, with the numeric key 1B, the set key 1c ₃
When is operated, a set product code number whose most significant bit is “1” is generated, and the individual product key 1 together with the numeric key 1B.
When c ₄ is operated, separately product code number of the most significant bit is "0" is generated.

When the set product code number is input in the registration mode, before executing the registration process, first, all the set products corresponding to the input set product code number are stored in the set product memory M11. Single item products are searched. Then, the presence or absence of the stock of each searched single product is checked based on the single product memory M12, and if there is no stock, the alternative product stored in the single product memory M12 is known and the replacement product If there is stock, the substitute product is output.

In the output processing of such a substitute product, the work register group WR and the count register CR in the CPU 2 are used.

Next, the operation of this embodiment will be described with reference to FIGS. 5 and 6.

Under the registration mode, set key 1c ₃ and numeric key 1B
When you input the set product code number with and, CPU2
First searches the set product memory M11 for the input set product code number according to a program stored in the ROM 3 in advance (FIG. 5, step S).
1). Then, all the individual product code numbers corresponding to the retrieved set product code numbers are read from the set product memory M11 and loaded into the work register group WR (step S2).

Next, the number of data loaded in the work register group WR,
That is, the number of single products included in the set product is stored in the count register CR (step S3). afterwards,
Based on one single product code number loaded in the work register group WR, the single product memory M12 is searched, the stock number of the corresponding single product is checked (step S4), and the presence or absence of the stock is determined (step S5). . As a result, when it is determined that there is no stock, the single product code number of the substitute product that replaces the single product that was determined to be out of stock,
The single-item product memory M12 is searched (step S6) and loaded into the work register in the work register group WR where the single-item product code number determined to be out of stock is stored (step S7). Then, the stock quantity of the substitute product indicated by the loaded single-item product code number is checked on the single-item product memory M12 (step S8), and it is determined whether or not the alternative product is in stock (step S9). As a result, when it is determined that there is no stock, the process returns to step S6 to further search for a substitute product that is a substitute for the substitute product that is determined to have no stock.

When it is determined in step S5 or step S9 that the product is in stock, the process proceeds to step S10, in order to check the stock shortage of the single product that is determined to be in stock, {average sales quantity per hour x time required for delivery. } Is performed.
Then, by comparing the calculation result with the stock quantity, it is judged whether or not the stock quantity is insufficient (step S11). When the stock quantity is smaller and the stock quantity is judged to be insufficient, an alarm is displayed to that effect. (Step S12), the process proceeds to step S13. In this way, before the product runs out of stock, it is possible to avoid the product out of stock as much as possible by warning in advance that the product is out of stock. On the other hand, when it is determined that the inventory is not insufficient, the process immediately proceeds to step S13.

In step S13, it is determined whether or not the content of the count register CR is "1". As a result, when it is not “1”, it means that the check of the stock has not been completed for all the single items included in the set item. Therefore, in order to continue the check, the contents of the count register CR should be continued. Is decremented by "1" (step S14), and the process returns to step S4. By such repetitive processing, the work register group WR stores only the single product code numbers of the single products (set contents) in stock. When the content of the count register CR is "1" and it is determined that the check is completed, the single product indicated by the single product code number in the work register group WR, that is, the single product in stock is displayed (step S15).

Explaining in a specific example, for example, as shown in FIG. 6, the set product A is composed of two types of single products s and t, and when the single product s is in stock, the single product s is displayed. To be done. On the other hand, when the single product t included in the set product A is out of stock, the substitute product m of the single product t
Is judged to be in stock, and if there is a stock of alternative product m,
The substitute product m is displayed. However, this alternative product m
Also, when the stock is out of stock, it is determined whether or not the stock of the alternative product n of the alternative product m is present, and if the stock of the alternative product n is available, that is displayed. On the other hand, when this alternative product n is also out of stock,
Further, similar processing is performed for the substitute product p. In this way, when a single product related to the original combination in the set product is out of stock, the alternative product in stock is combined and automatically displayed instead. Therefore, unlike the conventional case, it is not necessary to perform the setting change operation of the link data and the customer is not required to wait, so that the service can be improved.

After such a display, the process proceeds to step S16 to wait for key input. Therefore, the display contents include alternative products,
As a result of notifying the customer of that, when the customer understands,
It is sufficient to operate the execution key 1c ₁ . That is, the operation of the execution key 1c ₁ executes the registration process of the input set product and the like. On the other hand, since the substitute product is included, if the customer cancels the order, the cancellation key 1c
_You can operate ₂ to cancel the input.

It should be noted that the present invention is not limited to the above-described embodiment, and for example, designation of a single product included in a set product and an alternative product does not need to be performed directly by the single product code numbers thereof, but the record number address It may be performed by setting link data such as data. Further, the substitute product may be output not only when the single product included in the set product is out of stock, but also when the designated (ordered) single product is out of stock. In this case, even if the ordered product is out of stock, the alternative product can be recommended to the customer, which is useful for sales promotion.

[Advantage of Invention] According to this invention, when a product to be registered for sale is designated and the product is out of stock, the alternative product that can replace the product is displayed. Can recommend, improve service, promote sales, etc.
