Description

  The present invention is installed in a retail store, etc., and has a function of withdrawing cash as a change reserve to a register, and a function of storing cash deposited from a register into sales and change reserves. It is related with the cash processing machine provided with.

  Generally, a cash machine is introduced in a retail store in order to automatically perform deposit / withdrawal processing of sales and change reserves.

  In addition, the sales money stored in the cash processing machine is collected by a security company, such as a security company entrusted with the transportation of the sales money, from the store to collect the sales money storage and transport it to a bank etc. Therefore, it is necessary that the sales proceeds storage store the correct amount of sales securely.

  A conventional cash processing machine used in such a retail store was inserted when a bill that mixed sales and change reserves was inserted when collecting bills including change reserves from a register. The banknotes are identified and counted in the discrimination section, accumulated in the temporary storage section, and after confirming the deposit amount by the cashier, the banknotes paid out from the temporary storage section are re-discriminated by the discrimination section, Based on this, the equivalent of the change reserve is stored in the change storage, the equivalent of the sales is stored in the banknote collection box, the rejected banknote is stored in the reject box after the payment is confirmed, and the reject banknote is stored. If the actual storage amount stored in the banknote collection store is less than the sales amount, the difference is moved from the change store to the banknote recovery store, and the correct amount of sales is collected for each deposit process. (For example, see Patent Document 1) .).

JP 2008-77336 A (mainly paragraphs 0029-0035, FIG. 2)

  However, in the above-described conventional technology, the amount corresponding to the sales proceeds is stored in the banknote collection box and the amount corresponding to the change reserve is stored in the change storage box for each deposit process, and the actual storage amount of the banknote collection box is less than the sales volume. In this case, since the difference is moved from the change storage to the banknote collection box, if a large number of reject banknotes are generated at the time of storage, banknotes of changeable denominations such as 5,000 or 1,000 Banknotes of non-change denominations such as banknotes that are stored in the banknote collection store, such as banknotes of change denominations in the denominations that make up the sales equivalent If there are too many non-change denominations in the deposited banknotes, many non-change denominations will be included in the denominations that make up the equivalent of the change reserve. As a result, the number of change denomination banknotes stored in the change storage is reduced. And, there is a problem that may not be able to smoothly carry out the management of the change fund.

  The present invention has been made to solve the above-described problems, and in a cash processing machine that separates and stores sales and change reserves, it is possible to reduce banknotes of change denominations necessary as change reserves. It aims at providing the means to suppress.

  In order to solve the above-described problems, the present invention provides a change storage for storing change denomination banknotes in denominations and a change for storing non-change denomination banknotes reserved for change in a mixture of denominations. This is a cash processing machine equipped with a reserve storage and a sales receipt storage that stores bills of sales in a mix of denominations. In the processing, until the minimum sales amount is reached, all the non-change denomination banknotes are stored in the sales storehouse, and all the change denomination banknotes are stored in the change storehouse by denomination, After reaching sales, the number of denominations to be used for sales is calculated by giving priority to the higher denominations of non-change denominations and giving priority to higher denominations of change denominations. And storing the number of banknotes out of the number of denominations in the denomination in the sales receipt storage, Outer number of banknotes numbers, and storing bills of change denomination by denomination to the change storage box, characterized by storing bills of non change denominations into the change allowance repository.

  As a result, until the minimum sales amount is reached, the present invention can store the changeable denomination banknotes as change reserves in the change storage, leaving a large number of change denomination banknotes. Thus, an effect is obtained that it is possible to suppress a decrease in change denomination banknotes in a deposit process of a cash processor that stores and separates sales proceeds and change reserves.

  That is, the control unit 3 separates the banknotes inserted into the customer service unit 11 one by one by the separation mechanism and feeds them to the conveyance path 19, conveys the fed banknotes to the discrimination unit 12, and discriminates the denomination of the banknotes, etc. Is carried to the temporary holding unit 13 and accumulated in the temporary holding unit 13, and the number of sheets is counted by denomination by the fetched number counting area of the storage unit 4.

  In this case, the reject banknote at the time of taking in which it is discriminated that the denomination is unknown due to foreign currency bills, extreme dirt, tape sticking, conveyance abnormality, etc. in the discrimination unit 12 is conveyed to the customer service unit 11 by the conveyance path 19. Are collected and returned to the cashier.

  S5, and the control unit 3 that has finished stacking the inserted banknotes in the temporary storage unit 13 displays the total number of denominations and the total amount counted on the display screen of the display unit 5 according to the number-of-capture count area. A deposit amount confirmation screen displaying a certain deposit amount and the like is displayed, and the cashier person presses the confirmation button of the input unit 6 to perform the operation of confirming the deposit amount.

  S6, the control unit 3 that has recognized that the deposit amount has been finalized, terminates the capture process, and uses the current date and time recognized by the clock function as the deposit date and time. The history information is stored in the history information storage area of the storage unit 4.

  And in order to start the storage process of a banknote, the control part 3 is based on the attendant ID of the read card information, and the amount of money of the sunrise of the relevant attendant ID from the history information storage area of the memory | storage part 4 (FIG. 5) and subtract the withdrawal amount read from the confirmed deposit amount (the amount of change reserve paid by the cashier 1 cashier before the transaction starts) The sales amount of the register 2 used by the cashier in charge of the ID is calculated, and the current sales amount is updated by adding the calculated sales amount to the current sales amount stored in the current sales storage area of the storage unit 4. .

  S7, the control unit 3 that has updated the current sales reads the updated minimum sales stored in the storage unit 4 and compares it with the updated current sales. If the current sales exceed the minimum sales, The execution of the receipt storage process for each deposit is determined, and the process proceeds to step S17 in FIG.

  If the current sales is less than or equal to the minimum sales, it is determined to execute the limit condition sales storage process, and the process proceeds to step S8.

  The control part 3 which determined execution of S8 and the sales receipt storage process with a limit condition pays out the deposited banknote determined by the temporary holding part 13 to the conveyance path 19 one by one.

  In S9, the control unit 3 that has fed out the banknotes from the temporary storage unit 13 conveys the deposited banknotes fed out by the transport path 19 to the discrimination unit 12, performs re-discrimination of the denomination, etc., and recognizes the discrimination result.

  S10, the control part 3 transfers to step S12, when the recognized discrimination result is a banknote of a non-change denomination (10,000 000 tickets). If the recognized discrimination result is not a banknote of a non-change denomination, that is, if it is a banknote of a change denomination (5,000, thousand), the process proceeds to step S11.

  S11, the control unit 3 recognizing that the banknote of the change denomination has been paid out, conveys and stores the deposited banknote of the change denomination to the corresponding change storage 14 according to the identified denomination, The number of stored sheets for each change storage 14 is counted in the change count area of the storage unit 4, and the process proceeds to step S16.

  Specifically, when the deposited banknote is a thousand ticket, the deposited banknote is transported to and stored in the thousand ticket storage box 15, and “1” is added to the count number of the thousand ticket storage box 15 in the change count area. The number of stored bills in the thousand ticket storage 15 is counted, and when the deposited banknote is 5,000 tickets, the deposited banknote is transported and stored in the 5,000 ticket storage 16 and stored in the change count counting area. “1” is added to the count number of the storage 16 and the number of sheets stored in the 5,000-ticket storage 16 is counted.

  S 12, the control unit 3 recognizing that the banknote of the non-change denomination has been paid out, has been sold to date based on the number of money stored in the money storage 18 in the sales number counting area of the storage unit 4. The amount of money stored in the money storage 18 is calculated, and the amount of the deposit bill of the non-change denomination is added to the amount stored, and the amount of sales scheduled to be stored in the money storage 18 is stored. Calculate the planned amount.

  In S13, the control unit 3 that has calculated the planned storage amount of the sales proceeds to step S14 if the calculated stored storage amount exceeds the minimum sales amount. When the calculated estimated storage amount is equal to or less than the minimum sales amount, the process proceeds to step S15.

  S14, the control unit 3 that has recognized that the scheduled storage amount exceeds the minimum sales amount, transports and stores the deposited banknote of the non-change denomination to the change allowance storage box 17 regardless of the denomination, Based on the change allowance count area of the storage unit 4, the number of stored money types in the change allowance storage 17 is counted, and the process proceeds to step S16.

  S15, the control unit 3 recognizing that the planned storage amount is less than the minimum sales amount transports and stores the deposited banknote of the non-change denomination regardless of the denomination to the sales deposit storage 18 and stores it. The number of stored moneys in the sales money storage 18 is counted in the sales number counting area 4 and the process proceeds to step S16.

  S16, the control part 3 which accommodated the deposit banknote pay | paid out from the temporary storage part 13 returns to step S8, when a deposit banknote exists in the temporary storage part 13, and continues execution of the above-mentioned limit condition sales storage process .

  When there is no deposited banknote in the temporary holding unit 13, that is, when the stored banknote is the last deposited banknote, the depositing process is terminated and the process returns to step S1, and the initial screen is displayed on the display screen of the display unit 5 and is on standby To do.

  In addition, the deposit banknote discriminated from the reject banknote at the time of storage by double feeding or the like in step S9 is transported and stored in the change allowance storage 17, and the change allowance is determined by the change allowance count area of the storage unit 4. The number of times the reject banknote is stored in the storage case 17 is counted.

  In this way, the deposit processing by the limit condition sales receipt processing of the present embodiment is executed, and in step S7, when the updated current sales exceed the minimum sales, the following receipts are stored for each deposit. Processing is executed.

  S <b> 17, the control unit 3 that determines the execution of the receipt storage processing for each deposit based on the fact that the current sales exceeded the minimum sales amount, and has shifted from step S <b> 7 in FIG. Storing of the current sales amount stored in the sales amount storage 18 calculated from the updated current sales amount stored in the sales amount storage area based on the number of moneys stored in the sales amount count area. Subtract the amount and calculate the storage difference for sales.

  In S18, the control unit 3 that has calculated the storage difference of the sales amount corresponds to the storage difference of the sales amount based on the storage difference of the sales amount and the counting result by the number-of-capture count area stored in the storage unit 4. The number of denominations (referred to as a breakdown of denominations) is calculated by prioritizing the high denominations of non-change denominations, and the shortage is prioritized by the high denominations of change denominations. The breakdown number of money type breakdown number is set as an initial value of the count number of the money type in the breakdown number count area of the storage unit 4.

  In S19, the control unit 3 that has calculated the number of types of money stored in the storage difference of the sales proceeds to the transport path 19 for each deposited banknote determined by the temporary storage unit 13 one by one.

  S20, the control unit 3 that has paid out the banknote from the temporary storage unit 13 recognizes the discrimination result of the fed-out banknote in the same manner as in step S9.

  S21, the control unit 3 refers to the count number of the denomination in the breakdown count area of the storage unit 4, and when the discriminated denomination count number is “0”, that is, the bank note is denominated In the case of the number outside the breakdown, it is determined that the banknote to be used for the change reserve has been paid out, and the process proceeds to step S22. If the counted number of denominated denominations is “1” or more, that is, if the banknote is the number of the money type breakdown of the storage difference, it is determined that the banknote to be used for sales proceeds has been paid, and the process proceeds to step S25. Transition.

  The control part 3 which recognized that the banknote appropriated to S22 and change reserve was paid out transfers to step S23, when the recognized discrimination result is a banknote of a non-change denomination (two thousand tickets). If the recognized discrimination result is not a banknote of a non-change money type, that is, a banknote of a change money type (5,000 tickets, thousand tickets), the process proceeds to step S24.

  S23, the control unit 3 recognizing that the banknote to be applied to the change reserve is a non-change denomination, in the same manner as in the above step S14, the deposit banknote of the non-change denomination regardless of the denomination The money is stored in the money storage 17, and the number of stored money types in the change allowance storage 17 is counted in the change allowance count area, and the process proceeds to step S26.

  S24, the control unit 3 recognizing that the banknote to be applied to the change reserve is a change denomination, stores the deposited banknote of the change denomination in the change change storage 14 in the same manner as in step S11, The number of stored sheets for each change storage 14 is counted in the change number counting area, and the process proceeds to step S26.

  S25, the control unit 3 recognizing that the banknote to be used for sales has been paid out, transports and stores the deposited banknote to the sales storage box 18 regardless of the identified denomination. The number of stored money types in the sales money storage 18 is counted in the sales number counting area, and “1” is subtracted from the number of denominations in the breakdown number counting area to count the number of money types in the breakdown number counting area. And the process proceeds to step S26.

  S26, the control part 3 which accommodated the money_receiving | payment banknote paid out from the temporary storage part 13 returns to step S19, when a money_receiving | payment banknote exists in the temporary storage part 13, and continues execution of the above-mentioned every money_receiving | payment storage process.

  When there is no deposited banknote in the temporary holding unit 13, that is, when the stored banknote is the last deposited banknote, the depositing process is terminated and the process returns to step S1, and the initial screen is displayed on the display screen of the display unit 5 and is on standby To do.

  In step S20, the deposited banknote discriminated from the reject banknote at the time of storage by double feeding or the like is transported and stored in the change allowance storage 17, and the change allowance is determined by the change allowance count area of the storage unit 4. The number of times the reject banknote is stored in the storage case 17 is counted.

  In this way, the deposit process is executed by the receipt-of-sales storage process for each deposit in this embodiment.

  In the following, with reference to FIG. 5B, the deposit process of the present embodiment will be specifically described by taking as an example a case where the minimum sales amount is set at 140,000 yen.

  For reference, FIG. 5 (a) is similar to the above-mentioned patent document 1 in the case of the deposit process only by the receipt-of-sales storage process for each deposit that is stored separately for each deposit process. The processing result is shown.

  In FIG.5 (b), when the banknote of 80,000 yen which the cashier ID of clerk ID "A" brought is thrown in (S3, refer FIG.5 (b) 5th line), the control part 3 throws in. The discriminated bill is discriminated by the discriminating unit 12, and the number of the bills is counted according to the denomination by the fetched number counting area of the storage unit 4, and the counting result described in the fifth line of the deposit type and the number of columns is obtained (S4). .

  Then, when the deposit amount is confirmed by the cashier person (S5), the sunrise amount (30) for the clerk ID “A” in the history information storage area of the storage unit 4 from the confirmed deposit amount (80,000 yen). The sales amount (50000 yen) of the register 2 is calculated by subtracting 1000 yen (refer to the first line in FIG. 5 (b)), and the current sales amount stored in the current sales storage area of the storage unit 4 ( In addition to 0 yen), the current sales are updated to 50000 yen (S6), and in step S7, the updated current sales (50 thousand yen) and the minimum sales (140 thousand yen) are compared. Since the sales amount is less than or equal to the minimum sales amount, it is determined that the limited-condition sales proceeds storage process is executed, and the process proceeds to step S8.

  The control unit 3 that has determined the execution of the limit-accounting sales storage process, when the deposit banknotes paid out from the temporary storage unit 13 is a change denomination thousand ticket, to the thousand ticket storage box 15, the change denomination 5,000 In the case of tickets, it is transported to the 5,000-ticket storage box 16, and in the case of non-change money denominations and 2,000 tickets, it is transported to and stored in the sales money storage box 18, depending on the change number counting area and the sales number counting area. The respective number of stored sheets is counted (S8 to S16, refer to the fifth line in the sales money storage denomination and number column, change storage denomination and number column).

  In this case, the planned storage amount of the sales proceeds in step S12 is 72,000 yen at the maximum, so the storage in the change allowance storage 17 (S14) is not executed.

  In addition, the storage amount of the sales proceeds of the sales repositories 18 after the deposit processing by the clerk ID “A” is 72 thousand yen, and the current sales are 50 thousand yen.

  Next, when the banknote of 80,000 yen brought by the cashier in charge of the clerk ID “B” is inserted (see S6, FIG. 5 (b), the sixth line), the control unit 3 displays the inserted banknote. The discrimination unit 12 discriminates and counts the number of moneys by denomination in the fetched number counting area of the storage unit 4 to obtain the counting result described in the sixth line of the deposit type and the number of columns (S4).

  When the deposit amount is confirmed by the cashier in charge (S5), the sales amount (50000 yen) of the register 2 is calculated in the same manner as in the case of the clerk ID “A”, and it is stored in the current sales storage area. In addition to the stored current sales (50,000 yen), the current sales is updated as 100 thousand yen (S6), and in step S7, the updated current sales (100 thousand yen) and the minimum sales (140 (1,000 yen), and the current sales is equal to or less than the minimum sales, the execution of the limit condition sales storage process is determined, and the process proceeds to step S8.

  The control unit 3 that has determined the execution of the limit-accounting sales storage process, when the deposit banknotes paid out from the temporary storage unit 13 is a change denomination thousand ticket, to the thousand ticket storage box 15, the change denomination 5,000 In the case of a ticket, it is transported to and stored in the 5,000-ticket storage 16, and each stored number is counted for each change storage 14 in the change number counting area (S8-S11, change storage denomination and number 6 in the number column). Line reference).

  In the case of the first ten thousand ticket of the non-change denomination (S10), the sales amount up to the present time calculated based on the number stored in the sales amount storage 18 in the sales amount count area of the storage unit 4 The amount of money to be stored (72 thousand yen, S12) plus the amount of money (10 thousand yen) of the deposit money of the non-change denomination is 82,000 yen. Since it is below the sales amount (S13), it is transported to the sales money storage 18 and stored, and the number of stored money is counted according to the denomination by the sales number counting area (S15).

  In the same way, up to the sixth ticket is stored in the sales receipt storage 18 (see the sixth line of the sales storage type and number column), and when the seventh ticket is paid out, The storage amount of the sales amount calculated by adding the amount of money (10,000 yen) of the deposit money of the non-change denomination to the storage amount of the sales money up to (132,000 yen, S12) will be 142 thousand yen. Since the planned amount exceeds the minimum sales (S13), it is transported to and stored in the change allowance storage 17, and the number of stored money types is counted in the change allowance count area (S14, change storage denomination and number field). (See line 6). The same applies to 2,000 tickets.

  In this case, the storage amount of the sales proceeds of the sales proceeds storage box 18 after the deposit processing by the staff ID “B” is 132 thousand yen, and the current sales amount is 100 thousand yen.

  Next, when the banknote of 70,000 yen brought by the cashier in charge of the clerk ID “C” is inserted (S3, see FIG. 5 (b), the seventh line), the control unit 3 displays the inserted banknote. The discrimination unit 12 performs discrimination, and the number of sheets is counted by denomination by the fetched number counting area of the storage unit 4, and the counting result described in the seventh line of the deposit type and number column is obtained (S4).

  When the deposit amount is confirmed by the cashier in charge (S5), the sales amount (50000 yen) of the register 2 is calculated in the same manner as in the case of the clerk ID “A”, and it is stored in the current sales storage area. In addition to the stored current sales (100,000 yen), the current sales are updated as 150 thousand yen (S6). In step S7, the updated current sales (150,000 yen) and the minimum sales (140) are updated. (1,000 yen) and the current sales exceed the minimum sales, it is determined to execute the sales receipt processing for each deposit, and the process proceeds to step S17.

  The control unit 3 that has determined the deposit storage process for each deposit calculates the current calculated from the updated current sales (150,000 yen) based on the number of stored money types in the sales deposit storage 18 in the sales count section. By subtracting the stored amount of sales (up to 132,000 yen) to calculate the storage difference of sales (18,000 yen), Prioritize high denominations (10,000 tickets) (1 million and 1 thousand tickets), and shortage (6,000 yen) prioritize high denominations of change (5,000) 1 ticket and 1 thousand ticket), and calculate the number of denominations corresponding to the storage difference of sales (see line 7 of the sales storage denomination and number column), Set as the initial value of the count number of money type (S18), the deposited banknote paid out from the temporary holding unit 13 is the first 10,000 tickets In the case of 2,000 tickets, since it is the number of the breakdown by number of denominations (S21), it is transported to and stored in the sales deposit storage 18, and the stored number is counted according to the denomination by the sales count counter. The count number of the denomination (10,000 tickets and 2,000 tickets) in the breakdown count area is updated (S25).

  In the case where the deposited banknote paid out from the temporary holding unit 13 is the second banknote, the count number of the denomination (ten thousand tickets) in the breakdown number count area is “0”, and the breakdown by denomination Since the number is out of the number (S21), the process proceeds to step S22, and since it is a non-change denomination banknote (ten thousand vouchers), it is transported and stored in the change allowance storage 17, and is changed according to the change allowance count area. The number of stored money types is counted (see S24, change storage denomination and number column in line 7). The same applies to 2,000 tickets.

  If the deposited banknote paid out from the temporary holding unit 13 is the first 5,000 or thousand bills, since it is the number of the breakdown by number of denominations (S21), it is transported to the sales proceeds storage 18 and stored. Then, the number of stored sheets is counted by denomination by the sales number counting area, and the count number of the denomination (5,000 and 1,000) in the breakdown number counting area is updated (S25, in the sales storing denomination and number column) (See line 7).

  When the deposited banknotes paid out from the temporary storage unit 13 are the second and subsequent 5,000 or thousand tickets, the count number of the denomination (5,000 and thousand) in the breakdown count area is “0”. ”, And the number of change denominations is transported to the thousand-ticket storage box 15 and the change-type 5,000 tickets are transferred to the 5,000-ticket storage box 16. Then, according to the change number counting area, each stored number is counted separately for each change storage 14 (S22, S23, refer to the seventh line in the change storage denomination and number column).

  In this case, the storage amount of the sales proceeds of the sales revenue storage 18 after the deposit processing by the clerk ID “C” is 150 thousand yen, and the current sales are also 150 thousand yen.

  Next, when a banknote of 90,000 yen brought by the cashier in charge of the clerk ID “D” is inserted (S3, see FIG. 5 (b), line 8), the control unit 3 displays the inserted banknote. The discrimination unit 12 discriminates and counts the number of moneys by denomination in the fetched number counting area of the storage unit 4 to obtain the counting result described in the eighth line of the deposit type and the number of columns (S4).

  When the deposit amount is confirmed by the cashier in charge (S5), the sales amount (50000 yen) of the register 2 is calculated in the same manner as in the case of the clerk ID “A”, and it is stored in the current sales storage area. In addition to the stored current sales (150,000 yen), the current sales are updated as 200,000 yen (S6), and in step S7, the updated current sales (200,000 yen) and the minimum sales (140) are updated. (1,000 yen) and the current sales exceed the minimum sales, it is determined to execute the sales receipt processing for each deposit, and the process proceeds to step S17.

  The control unit 3 that has determined the deposit storage processing for each deposit calculates the current amount calculated based on the number of stored money types in the sales deposit storage 18 in the sales amount count area from the updated current sales (200,000 yen). By subtracting the storage amount of sales proceeds (150,000 yen), the storage difference of sales proceeds (50000 yen) is calculated, and based on the counting result in the number-of-capture count area of the storage unit 4, Prioritize high denominations (10,000 tickets) (3 and 5 thousand tickets), and shortage (10,000 yen) prioritize high denominations of change (5,000) 1 ticket and 5 thousand tickets), the number of denominations corresponding to the difference in storage of sales (see line 8 in the sales storage denomination and number column) Set as the initial value of the count number of money type (S18), the deposited banknotes paid out from the temporary holding unit 13 are the first to third sheets In the case of 10,000 tickets or the 1st to 5th tickets, since it is the number of the breakdown by type of money (S21), it is transported and stored in the sales money storage 18 and stored in the sales number counting area. Are counted by denomination and the count number of the denomination (ten thousand and 2,000) in the breakdown count area is updated (S25).

  If the deposited banknotes paid out from the temporary storage unit 13 are the first 5,000 tickets or the first to fifth sheets, they are the number of denominations (S21). The number of stored sheets is counted by denomination by the sales amount counting area, and the count number of the denomination (5,000 and 1,000) in the breakdown number counting area is updated (S25, sales storing) (Refer to line 8 in the denomination and number column).

  When the deposited banknotes drawn from the temporary holding unit 13 are the sixth and subsequent thousand bills, the count number of the denomination (thousand bills) in the breakdown count area is “0”, and the denomination Since it is an outside number of the breakdown number (S21), it is transported to and stored in the thousand ticket storage 15, and the stored number of the thousand ticket storage 15 is counted by the change number counting area (S22, S23, change storage denomination). And line 8 in the number field).

  In this case, the storage amount of the sales proceeds in the sales deposit storage 18 after the deposit processing by the clerk ID “D” is 200 thousand yen, and the current sales are also 200 thousand yen.

  As described above, the result of performing the four deposit processes using the limit condition sales proceeds storage process of the present embodiment is stored in the sales revenue storage 18 as shown in FIG. The total sales amount is 200,000 yen, the total change reserve stored in the change storage 14 and the change reserve storage 17 is 120 thousand yen, and is stored in the change reserve storage 17 in the total change reserve The amount of change allowance is 20,000 yen.

  On the other hand, as shown in FIG. 5 (a), the result of performing the four deposit processes using only the deposit storage process for each deposit as in the conventional case is the total amount of sales stored in the sales deposit storage 18. 200 thousand yen, the total change reserve stored in the change storage 14 and the change allowance storage 17 is 120 thousand yen, and the change stored in the change reserve storage 17 in the total change reserve The amount of allowance is 42 thousand yen, and the amount of change allowance by the deposit process of this embodiment is 22,000 yen less than the amount of change allowance by the deposit process using only the deposit storage process for each deposit. Therefore, a larger number of bills of change denominations can be stored.

  It should be noted that banknotes of non-change denominations and reject banknotes at the time of storage stored in the change reserve storage 17 are taken out by a staff member such as a store administrator as necessary, The money is exchanged into a change denomination banknote and stored in the change storage 14 according to denomination.

  In addition, although rarely, when the denomination received when reaching the minimum sales amount includes many change denominations (for example, the deposits of the clerk IDs “B” and “C” in FIG. 5) If the order is changed), if there is no subsequent deposit, the amount of sales stored in the sales storage 18 is to be tightened in a state where the amount of sales is less than the actual amount of sales. However, in that case, the amount of money stored in the sales money storage 18 is changed to the actual sales money by moving the shortage of sales money from the change storage 14 to the sales money storage 18 at the time of closing. Match the forehead.

  In this manner, in the deposit process using the limit condition sales proceeds storage process of the present embodiment, until the minimum sales are reached, the banknotes of the changeable denomination are stored in the change storage as change reserves. The banknotes of change denominations can be stored in large numbers, and the decrease in change denominations of banknotes of change denominations in the deposit process of the cash processing machine 1 that stores and separates the sales proceeds and change reserves, It is possible to smoothly manage the change reserve for circulation.

  As described above, in the present embodiment, the banknote separation and collection mechanism is provided, and the change storage unit that stores banknotes of change denominations by denomination and the banknote accumulation mechanism are provided, and are allocated to change. It has a change allowance storage that stores bills of change denomination mixed with denominations, and a sales store that has only the bill accumulation mechanism and stores bills of sales mixed with denominations. The minimum sales amount for one day is set in a cash processing machine that manages deposits and withdrawals between multiple registers, and banknotes of non-change denominations until the minimum sales amount is reached in each deposit process. Are stored in the sales receipt storage, and all change denomination banknotes are stored in the change storage by denomination. After reaching the minimum sales, Prioritize high denominations of denominations and calculate shortages by prioritizing high denominations of change denominations The number of banknotes included in the number of denominations is stored in the sales receipt storage, and the number of banknotes outside the number of denominations is stored in the change storage, and the non-changes are stored in the change storage. By storing denomination banknotes in the change reserve storage, it is possible to store reversible change denomination banknotes as change reserves in the change storage until the minimum sales amount is reached. Further, it is possible to suppress a decrease in the bills of the change denomination in the deposit process of the cash processing machine that stores and separates the sales proceeds and the change reserve while leaving a large number of change denomination banknotes.
