Abstract

The invention provides a self-checkout terminal. A process is executed in which a weight value transmitted from a scale device having a placing part for placing an article, is stored in a memory as a former weight under predetermined condition, when an article code is input through a user interface, a price and a weight range corresponding to the input article code is searched from an article data file, a weight check is executed in which whether or not a weight difference between a weight value acquired by placing the article code input article on the placing part and the former weight stored in the memory falls within the searched weight range, and an article information registration process is executed only when the weight check is gone through. As for the predetermined condition may include not only before the first input of the article code in one transaction and when it is determined that the weight value is within the weight range as a result of the weight check process, but also when it is determined that the weight value received from the scale device decreases compared to the former weight.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a self-checkout terminal that allows a customer to perform a self-checkout. Background technique [0002] In recent years, self-checkout terminals that allow customers to perform self-checkout have been developed. Various user interfaces for performing item sales data processing are arranged to enable operations by customers, provision of information to customers, and issuance of receipts. Refer to Japanese Laid-Open Publication No. P2004-086728. As various user interfaces, article code readers such as bar code readers, displays for displaying information, input sections for inputting information, receiving / dispensing (dispensing) for coins and banknotes, etc. ) devices such as a settlement section for enabling settlement, a receipt printer, and the like. [0003] In addition, measures are needed to prevent false action, i.e., items brought home by customers should be limited to items whose item codes are read by the...
