The second input means inputs a start instruction of the self-settlement by a salesclerk. The validation means invalidates at least one of the first input means and the first control means and validates any of the first input means and the first control means, which is invalidated, when the instruction of execution of the self-settlement is input by the second input means.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 6
