FIG. 1 is an overall schematic configuration diagram of a cleaning system 1 using an accounting processing apparatus and an information processing system (accounting processing method) according to an embodiment of the present invention. As shown in the figure, this cleaning system 1 includes a management device 10, an accounting processing apparatus (hereinafter referred to as a "POS terminal") 30 installed at each cleaning intermediary store (including cleaning stores that perform cleaning at that store; the same applies hereinafter), a factory terminal 50 installed at a cleaning factory, a mobile terminal (for example, a terminal device such as a mobile phone or a smartphone) 70 possessed by a customer (user), and a terminal device (for example, a personal computer, a tablet terminal, etc., hereinafter referred to as a "home terminal") 80 possessed by a customer (user), which are connected by a network (communication line) 100 such as the Internet so as to enable two-way communication. The management device 10, the POS terminal 30, and the factory terminal 50 may be connected by a dedicated communication line. 【0013】 The management device 10 is a computer (e.g., a server) that controls the entire cleaning system 1 and manages various information such as product files 110 and necessity files 130. From the perspective of the POS terminal 30, the management device 10 is an external device connected via the network 100. 【0014】 Figure 2 is a diagram showing an example of a functional block diagram of the management device 10. As shown in the figure, the management device 10 has a CPU 11, a ROM 13, a RAM 15, a display unit 17, a hard disk (storage means) 19, an operation unit 21, and a communication unit 23, and these elements are connected to each other via a bus 25. The CPU 11 controls the operation of the management device 10 by executing a control program stored in the ROM 13. The ROM 13 stores various information such as the control program. The RAM 15 temporarily stores various information. The display unit 17 is, for example, a liquid crystal display, and displays information to the operator operating the management device 10. The hard disk 19 is a storage means that stores various information such as the product file 110 and necessity file 130 described below. The operation unit 21 is an input means having various keys, etc., for receiving various operations from the operator operating the management device 10. The communication unit 23 is a communication interface for communicating (sending and receiving) with various external devices via the network 100, and includes receiving means for receiving information from other devices and transmitting means for sending information to other devices. 【0015】 The POS terminal 30 is installed in a dry cleaning agency and performs customer information registration processing, such as inputting the customer's name, telephone number, and information on whether a receipt or electronic receipt is needed, as well as product information registration processing, such as processing the receipt and return of products, and payment settlement (accounting processing). Figure 3 is a diagram showing an example of a functional block diagram of the POS terminal 30. As shown in the figure, the POS terminal 30 is configured by connecting a CPU 31, ROM 33, RAM 35, display unit 37, input unit 39, printing unit (receipt issuing means) 41, and communication unit 43 via a bus 45. The CPU 31 controls the operation of the POS terminal 30 by executing a control program stored in the ROM 33. The ROM 33 stores various information such as the control program. The RAM 35 temporarily stores various information. The hard disk 34 is a storage means that stores various information such as product files 110 and necessity files 130. The display unit 37 is, for example, a liquid crystal display (touch panel combined display unit (input and display unit)) and displays information to the store clerk operating the POS terminal 30 (product acceptance processing, product return processing, payment processing, etc.). The input unit 39 has various keys for receiving various operations from the store clerk operating the POS terminal 30, as well as a touch panel, handheld scanner, card reader, etc., provided on the surface of the display unit 37. The printing unit 41 is used to issue receipts, deposit slips, etc. The communication unit 43 is a communication interface for communicating with various external devices via the network 100. The multiple POS terminals 30 connected to the network 100 may be multiple POS terminals 30 of the same chain store, or POS terminals 30 of a privately run dry cleaning agency, etc., and there may be many other POS terminals 30. In other words, this dry cleaning system 1 is a system that can be configured to cover chain stores and privately run stores. 【0016】 The factory terminal 50 is a computer installed in a cleaning factory where cleaning is actually performed. Although not shown in the diagram, it consists of at least a CPU, ROM, RAM, display unit, input unit, and communication unit connected via a bus. 【0017】 The mobile terminal 70 is a mobile device, such as a smartphone (multifunction telephone), that is held by each customer using the cleaning service, and it exchanges various information with the management device 10 and the POS terminal 30. Figure 4 is a diagram showing an example of a functional block diagram of the mobile terminal 70. As shown in the figure, the mobile terminal 70 is composed of a CPU 71, a ROM 73, a RAM 75, a touch panel / display unit (input / display unit) 77, and a communication unit 78, all connected via a bus 79. The CPU 71 controls the operation of the mobile terminal 70 by executing a control program stored in the ROM 73. The ROM 73 stores the control program and various information such as image data (image format information) displayed on the touch panel / display unit 77. The RAM 75 temporarily stores various information. The touch panel / display unit 77 is a device that combines a display device that displays various images, such as an LCD panel, with a position input device, such as a touchpad. It displays information to the customer (the person holding the mobile terminal) operating the mobile terminal 70, and allows input by pressing (tapping, dragging, flicking, etc.) the display on the screen. The communication unit 78 is a communication interface for communicating with various external devices via the network 100, and also serves as a means for receiving various information, such as detailed information of items that have been requested to be cleaned. 【0018】 Furthermore, the system is designed so that various applications can be freely installed on the mobile terminal 70 from the management device 10. For example, a cleaning membership application, as shown in Figure 9, can be installed on the mobile terminal 70. Alternatively, the cleaning membership application may be installed by capturing the 2D code (1. App Download) printed at the bottom of the receipt R2 shown in Figure 12 with an imaging unit (CCD camera) not shown, decoding the captured 2D code, and then connecting to a download destination (e.g., a management device such as a server) based on the decoding result to download and install the cleaning membership application. 【0019】 This cleaning membership application generally consists of two elements: "activities" and "services." An activity is a program with a single screen; it runs while the screen is displayed, but enters a standby state if the user closes the application or if an interruption such as an incoming phone call occurs and the screen turns off. 【0020】 On the other hand, a service is a program that does not have a screen and always operates as a background process. It resides in the system of the mobile terminal 70 and performs processing in response to requests from the cleaning member application and other applications. Since a service itself does not have a screen, data and other information are set via an activity that has a screen. Furthermore, since services and activities may operate in different processes, they operate using an inter-process communication mechanism. For example, the cleaning member application (activity) that displays detailed information about items requested for cleaning and the program (service) that receives detailed information about cleaning items and cleaning completion information distributed from the management device 10 operate using inter-process communication. 【0021】 Figure 5 shows an example of a functional block diagram of a customer's home terminal 80 (for example, a personal computer or tablet terminal). As shown in the figure, the home terminal 80 is configured by connecting at least a CPU 81, a ROM 83, a RAM 85, a display unit 87, an input unit 89, and a communication unit 93 via a bus 95. The printing unit 91 may also be connected via a home terminal 80, for example, through an interface such as USB, or via a communication unit 93 using Wi-Fi or the like. 【0022】 Figure 6 shows an example of a product file 110 stored by the management device 10. As shown in the figure, the product file 110 stores the product code, product name, washing category, storage category, unit price, estimated completion date, etc. The estimated completion date is the normal number of days it takes from the time the product is received until the cleaning is completed. 【0023】 Figure 7 shows an example of a necessity file 130 stored in the management device 10. As shown in the figure, the necessity file 130 stores the customer code and whether a receipt or electronic receipt is required. The necessity of receipts and electronic receipts can be read from the necessity file 130 by the POS terminal 30 or the management device 10 based on the customer identification information registered by the customer, and the necessity information for receipts and electronic receipts can be set or changed as appropriate. Alternatively, the necessity information may be set when a new member is registered in the POS terminal 30 or the management device 10. Furthermore, the necessity information in the necessity file 130 may be set when registering as a member using the mobile terminal 70. For example, the two-dimensional code (2. For member registration) printed at the bottom of the receipt shown in Figure 12 may be captured by the imaging unit (CCD camera) of the mobile terminal 70 (not shown), the captured two-dimensional code may be decoded, and based on the decoding result, a connection may be made to the member registration destination (e.g., a management device such as a server), and the necessity information may be entered as input information (customer information) during registration, where various settings are made on the member registration screen displayed on the display unit of the mobile terminal 70. Of course, the necessity information for deposit slips and electronic receipts in the necessity file 130 is configured to be changeable as appropriate even after member registration. Furthermore, the necessity file 130 is not limited to being stored in the RAM 15 or hard disk 19 of the management device 10, but may also be stored in the RAM 35 or hard disk 34 of the POS terminal 30. 【0024】 Figure 8 shows an example of a consigned product history file 150 stored by the management device 10. As shown in the figure, the consigned product history file 150 stores information such as customer code, consigned product name, price, consigned date, scheduled completion date, completion date, and pickup date. 【0025】 "Example 1" Next, we will describe an example of the operation of this cleaning system 1, "Example 1". In this cleaning system 1, the mobile terminal 70 itself functions as a cleaning shop's membership card, receipt (electronic receipt), and deposit slip. Furthermore, the management device 10 can distribute registered product details, accounting information, and cleaning completion information to the mobile terminal 70, and conversely, the mobile terminal 70 can send survey information to the management device 10. Customer information is centrally managed by the management device 10. The management device 10 is a cloud server that provides services specialized for cleaning, and cleaning shops and the like use this cloud server to provide customers with various services, such as receiving and handing over cleaning items, as well as providing benefits. 【0026】 The customer then downloads the cleaning membership application displayed on the touch panel / display unit 77 of the mobile terminal 70 and stores it in the RAM 75, thereby becoming a member of this cleaning system 1. At this time, information regarding the necessity of a paper receipt (or electronic receipt), which is one of the customer information items, is entered from the POS terminal 30, management device 10, or mobile terminal 70 and stored in the management device 10 or POS terminal 30. Furthermore, if a paper receipt is not required, the recipient of the detailed product information (for example, the customer's mobile terminal 70 or the customer's home terminal 80) is also entered as one of the customer information items from the POS terminal 30, management device 10, or mobile terminal 70 and stored in the management device 10 or POS terminal 30. 【0027】 Figure 10 is a diagram illustrating the processing flow when payment is made at the POS terminal 30. First, when a customer goes to a dry cleaning agency (for example, "○○ Dry Cleaning AAA Store") to drop off their dry cleaning items, they launch the dry cleaning membership application on their mobile terminal 70. The home screen, which is a touch panel / display unit 77, displays a membership card screen G1 as shown in Figure 9. The input unit 39 of the POS terminal 30 at the dry cleaning agency then reads the barcode (membership number, etc.) displayed on this membership card screen G1 (step ST1-1). 【0028】 The POS terminal 30 queries the management device 10 using the read member number (customer code), etc., to obtain member information and stores it in the RAM 35 (step ST1-2). The member information also includes information on whether the receipt slip is necessary. Note that obtaining the necessity information is not limited to querying the management device 10 using the read member number (customer code), etc. For example, the POS terminal 30 of the dry cleaning agency may store the member information, and the POS terminal 30 may use the read member number (customer code), etc., to retrieve the relevant member information from the member information stored in the POS terminal 30 and obtain the information on whether the receipt slip is necessary. Note that the information on whether the receipt slip is necessary is either a setting for a paper receipt slip or an electronic receipt slip. In this embodiment, a paper receipt slip is shown as an example, but in the case of an electronic receipt slip, the setting of the necessity information is the reverse setting of the setting for a paper receipt slip in this embodiment (necessary for an electronic receipt slip is non-negotiable for a paper receipt slip, and non-negotiable for an electronic receipt slip is necessary for a paper receipt slip). 【0029】 Then, the CPU 31 of the POS terminal 30 registers the received goods on the POS terminal 30 (step ST1-3) and performs payment (settlement) (step ST1-4). The unit price and estimated completion days used for payment calculations are calculated using the information in the product file 110. 【0030】 Next, the necessity of the receipt (paper) is determined from the information regarding the necessity of the receipt (step ST1-5). If it is not necessary, the process moves to step ST1-6, where the printing unit 41 prints and issues a receipt R1 (with total information 11a instead of detail information 12b) that does not include the detail information 12b (see Figure 12), as shown in Figure 11. On the other hand, if it is necessary, the process moves to step ST1-7, where the printing unit 41 prints and issues one receipt R2 or two receipts R2-1, R2-2 that include the detail information 12b or 13b, as shown in Figure 12 or Figure 13. 【0031】 Here, receipt R1, which does not include the detailed information shown in Figure 11, is a receipt that only contains the receipt information, i.e., accounting information. On the other hand, receipt R2, which includes the detailed information 12b shown in Figure 12, is a receipt that includes accounting information along with the detailed information of the goods (information that lists the goods received in bullet points; this information serves as a receipt slip) 12b. In other words, receipt R2 is a receipt that prints both a receipt and a receipt slip on a single sheet. In the examples of Figures 11 and 12, the title printed in the header is "Settlement Receipt" if the detailed information 12b is not printed, and "Receipt Slip" if the detailed information 12b is printed. On the other hand, receipt R2-1 shown in Figure 13 is a receipt that includes the detailed information 13b of the goods as a receipt slip, and receipt R2-2 is a receipt that includes accounting information as a receipt. In other words, receipts R2-1 and R2-2 are receipts with the payment receipt and deposit slip printed on separate sheets. 【0032】 Then, following step ST1-6 or step ST1-7, the CPU 31 transmits the detailed information to the management device 10 (step ST1-8). At the same time, accounting information is also transmitted. 【0033】 Figure 14 is a processing flow diagram of the management device 10 when it receives the transmission of the detailed information. When the management device 10 receives the detailed information and accounting information at a predetermined timing, the CPU 11 of the management device 10 stores that information in the hard disk 19 (step ST2-1). 【0034】 The management device 10 then uses the stored customer information to determine whether the customer has requested an electronic receipt (step ST2-2). If a request has been made, it distributes an electronic receipt consisting of product details and accounting information to the mobile terminal 70 or home terminal 80 (i.e., the destination for detailed information distribution set in advance by the customer) (step ST2-3). The mobile terminal 70 or home terminal 80 stores the product details and accounting information in its RAM 75 or RAM 85. At the same time, the management device 10 also distributes information such as the date and time each product was received and the expected completion date to the mobile terminal 70 or home terminal 80, and stores it in its RAM 75 or RAM 85. 【0035】 Then, on the membership card screen G1 of the mobile terminal 70 shown in Figure 9, tapping "Usage History" at the bottom displays the item deposit list screen G2 of all cleaning agents connected to the network 100, as shown in Figure 15. Furthermore, tapping, for example, the "Currently in Storage" column g1 of the top list on the item deposit list screen G2 displays the usage history details screen G3 for the currently in storage, as shown in Figure 16, using the distributed details information and accounting information. The usage history details screen G3 corresponds to the conventional deposit slip and receipt. That is, the usage details data is used in the deposit slip section g2, and the accounting information data is used in the receipt section g3. Note that the display of the usage history details screen G3 on the mobile terminal 70 is performed when the customer requests an electronic deposit slip, so it will not be displayed if the customer refuses the request for an electronic deposit slip (the necessity setting information is no). In this case, the customer is issued a paper receipt R2 or R2-1, R2-2 as shown in Figure 12 or Figure 13, so there is no problem. Furthermore, even if the customer requests an electronic receipt (indicating a requirement), a receipt R1 displaying accounting information as shown in Figure 11 is issued, so the display of the receipt section g3 in the transaction history details screen G3 can be omitted. 【0036】 On the other hand, if the home terminal 80 is a tablet device or the like, the distribution of product details and accounting information will display content equivalent to the usage history details screen G3 on the display unit 87 of the home terminal 80 (tablet device, etc.). Furthermore, if the home terminal 80 is a personal computer, the management device 10 will send an email or the like to the home terminal 80 informing it that product details and accounting information have been distributed. The home terminal 80 (personal computer, etc.) will then access the management device 10 via a communication line based on a predetermined URL (location of information resources (data, services, etc.) existing on the internet) contained in the email opened with its mailer (software for creating, sending, receiving, and saving / managing received emails), open the member's web page, and log in with a login ID and password to display content equivalent to the usage history details screen G3 on the display unit 87. 【0037】 Once the cleaning of the products is completed at the factory, the factory terminal 50, or the POS terminal 30 at the cleaning agency where the finished products are brought from the factory, inputs that the products are ready and transmits this information to the management device 10. The management device 10 then sends a notification to the customer's mobile terminal 70 or home terminal 80 that the products are ready. The customer, notified that their cleaned items are ready, goes to pick them up on or after the notified completion date. When the POS terminal 30 inputs that the items have been picked up and the management device 10 receives this information, the management device 10 records this pickup date in the "Pickup Date" column of the product history file 150 shown in Figure 8. The management device 10 also distributes various sales information, coupon information, survey requests, etc., to each mobile terminal 70 or home terminal 80 as needed. 【0038】 As explained above, the POS terminal (accounting processing device) 30 is a device that registers cleaning items (products) (steps ST1-3, etc.) and settles payments (steps ST1-4, etc.) based on the detailed information of the registered cleaning items. Furthermore, it is equipped with a receipt output means (CPU 31, etc., which executes steps ST1-5 to ST1-7) that refers to necessity information that is set in advance for each customer indicating whether or not a receipt is required, and outputs different receipts R1 and R2 issued in conjunction with the payment settlement according to the result of referring to the necessity information. This makes it possible to print only the necessary information on the receipt for customers who need a receipt and customers who do not, thereby saving on receipts, which are consumables, and eliminating economic waste. In addition, a receipt is issued in either case, so various declarations can be easily and reliably made using this receipt (receipt). 【0039】 More specifically, the above receipt output means issues receipt R1 without the product details information in the receipt issued upon payment if the result of the reference is negative (in the case of a customer who does not need a paper receipt or who needs an electronic receipt) (step ST1-6), and issues receipt R2 (or R2-1 and R2-2) with the product details information in the receipt issued upon payment (step ST1-7). Since the receipt issuance method differs based on the necessity information, receipts (consumables) can be saved and no economic waste occurs. 【0040】 Furthermore, the POS terminal 30 is equipped with a transmission means (CPU 31 or communication unit 43 that executes step ST1-8) that, when the result of referring to the necessity information is negative (i.e., a paper receipt is not required, or an electronic receipt is required for the customer), transmits at least the product details to the management device (external device) 10 once the payment is made. This allows the management device 10 to send the details to the customer's destination (mobile terminal 70 or home terminal 80), and the electronic receipt displayed at the customer's destination can be a receipt that includes the details (and can also be used as an electronic receipt). This prevents the receipt from being accidentally lost or discarded, as can happen with paper receipts. In this embodiment, even when the result of referring to the necessity information is positive, the product details are transmitted to the management device (external device) 10 once the payment is made, for the purpose of data management by the management device 10. 【0041】 Furthermore, looking at the cleaning system 1 as a whole, the cleaning system (information processing system) 1 includes a POS terminal (accounting processing device) 30 that registers products and settles payments based on the detailed information of the registered products, and a management device (external device) 10 connected to the POS terminal 30 via a network (communication line) 100. The POS terminal 30 refers to pre-set necessity information indicating whether a deposit slip is necessary, and according to the result of referring to the necessity information, it outputs receipts R1 and R2 issued in conjunction with the payment settlement. The system includes, at least, a transmission means for transmitting detailed information of the goods for which payment has been made to the management device 10. The management device 10 is configured to include, at a predetermined timing, a receiving means (CPU 11, etc., which executes step ST2-1) for receiving the transmitted detailed information of the goods, and a distribution means (CPU 11, etc., which executes steps ST2-2, ST2-3) for referring to pre-set necessity information indicating whether a receipt is necessary, and, if the necessity information is registered, for distributing the detailed information of the goods to a pre-set customer distribution destination (mobile terminal 70 or home terminal 80). 【0042】 In the above cleaning system 1, it was explained that the customer possesses both a mobile terminal 70 and a home terminal 80, but it is also applicable if the customer possesses only one of them, or even if they possess neither. If the customer possesses neither, an electronic receipt is not required. For example, when registering as a member, a method may be used to distinguish between regular members and smartphone members, resulting in different receipt issuance methods. In this case, if the customer is registered as a regular member, they will be treated as a member who does not use (or does not possess) either a mobile terminal 70 or a home terminal 80, and the system will be operated using a membership card or similar medium. In this case, a receipt (paper receipt) will be issued with detailed product information printed on it. If the customer is registered as a smartphone member, an electronic receipt or electronic deposit slip will be delivered to the customer's smartphone, but the receipt issuance method may be further differentiated based on the necessity information set during member registration. 【0043】 Example 2 Next, we will describe "Example 2," an example of the operation of this cleaning system 1. Similar to Example 1, the mobile terminal 70 itself functions as a membership card, receipt (electronic receipt), and deposit slip for the cleaning shop. Furthermore, the management device 10 can distribute detailed information about registered products, accounting information, and cleaning completion information to the mobile terminal 70, and conversely, the mobile terminal 70 can send survey information to the management device 10. Customer information is centrally managed by the management device 10. The management device 10 is a cloud server that provides services specialized for cleaning, and cleaning shops and the like use this cloud server to provide customers with various services, such as receiving and handing over cleaning items, as well as providing benefits. 【0044】 The customer then downloads the cleaning membership application displayed on the touch panel / display unit 77 of the mobile terminal 70 and stores it in the RAM 75, thereby becoming a member of this cleaning system 1. At this time, information regarding the need for an electronic receipt, which is one of the customer information items, is entered from the POS terminal 30, management device 10, or mobile terminal 70 and stored in the management device 10 or POS terminal 30. Furthermore, if an electronic receipt is required, the recipient of the detailed product information (for example, the customer's mobile terminal 70 or the customer's home terminal 80) is also entered as one of the customer information items from the POS terminal 30, management device 10, or mobile terminal 70 and stored in the management device 10 or POS terminal 30. 【0045】 Figure 17 is a diagram illustrating the processing flow when payment is made at the POS terminal 30. First, when a customer goes to a dry cleaning agency (for example, "○○ Dry Cleaning AAA Store") to drop off their dry cleaning items and launches the dry cleaning membership application on the mobile terminal 70, the membership card screen G1 shown in Figure 9 is displayed on the touch panel / display unit 77 as the home screen. The input unit 39 of the POS terminal 30 at the dry cleaning agency then reads the barcode (membership number, etc.) displayed on this membership card screen G1 (step ST1'-1). 【0046】 The POS terminal 30 queries the management device 10 using the read member number (customer code), etc., to obtain member information and stores it in the RAM 35 (step ST1'-2). The member information also includes information on whether the electronic receipt is necessary. Note that obtaining the necessity information is not limited to querying the management device 10 using the read member number (customer code), etc. For example, the POS terminal 30 of the dry cleaning agency may store the member information, and the POS terminal 30 may retrieve the relevant member information from the member information it stores using the read member number (customer code), etc., to obtain the information on whether the electronic receipt is necessary. 【0047】 Then, the CPU 31 of the POS terminal 30 registers the received goods on the POS terminal 30 (step ST1'-3) and performs payment (settlement) (step ST1'-4). The unit price and estimated completion days used for payment calculations are calculated using the information in the product file 110. 【0048】 Next, the system determines whether an electronic receipt is necessary based on the electronic receipt necessity information (step ST1'-5). If it is necessary, the system proceeds to step ST1'-6, where the printing unit 41 prints and issues a receipt R1 as shown in Figure 11, which does not include the detailed information 12b shown in Figure 12 (with total information 11a instead of detailed information 12b). If it is not necessary, the system proceeds to step ST1'-7, where the printing unit 41 prints and issues one receipt R2 or two receipts R2-1, R2-2, which include the detailed information 12b or 13b, as shown in Figure 12 or Figure 13. 【0049】 Here, receipt R1, which does not include the detailed information shown in Figure 11, is a receipt that only contains the receipt information, i.e., only the accounting information. On the other hand, receipt R2, which includes the detailed information 12b shown in Figure 12, is a receipt that includes the accounting information along with the detailed information of the goods (information that lists the goods received in bullet points; this information serves as a receipt slip) 12b. In other words, receipt R2 is a receipt that prints both the receipt and the receipt slip on a single sheet. On the other hand, receipt R2-1, shown in Figure 13, is a receipt that includes the detailed information of the goods 13b as a receipt slip, and receipt R2-2 is a receipt that includes the accounting information as a receipt. In other words, receipts R2-1 and R2-2 are receipts that print the receipt and the receipt slip on separate sheets. 【0050】 Then, following step ST1'-6 or step ST1'-7, the CPU 31 transmits the detailed information to the management device 10 (step ST1'-8). At the same time, it also transmits the accounting information. 【0051】 Figure 18 is a processing flow diagram of the management device 10 when it receives the transmission of the detailed information. When the management device 10 receives the detailed information and accounting information at a predetermined timing, the CPU 11 of the management device 10 stores that information in the hard disk 19 (step ST2'-1). 【0052】 The management device 10 then uses the stored customer information to determine whether the customer has requested an electronic receipt (step ST2'-2). If requested, it distributes the product details and accounting information to the mobile terminal 70 or home terminal 80 (i.e., the destination for the detailed information distribution set in advance by the customer) (step ST2'-3). The mobile terminal 70 or home terminal 80 stores the product details and accounting information in its RAM 75 or RAM 85. At the same time, the management device 10 also distributes information such as the date and time each product was received and the expected completion date to the mobile terminal 70 or home terminal 80, and stores it in its RAM 75 or RAM 85. 【0053】 Then, on the membership card screen G1 of the mobile terminal 70 shown in Figure 9, tapping "Usage History" at the bottom displays the item deposit list screen G2 of all cleaning agents connected to the network 100, as shown in Figure 15. Furthermore, tapping, for example, the "Currently in Storage" column g1 at the top of the list on the item deposit list screen G2 displays the usage history details screen G3 for the currently in storage, as shown in Figure 16, using the distributed details information and accounting information. The usage history details screen G3 corresponds to the conventional deposit slip and receipt. That is, the usage details data is used in the deposit slip section g2, and the accounting information data is used in the receipt section g3. Note that the display of the usage history details screen G3 on the mobile terminal 70 is done when the customer requests an electronic receipt, so it is not displayed if the customer refuses the request for an electronic receipt. In this case, the customer is issued a paper receipt R2 or R2-1, R2-2 as shown in Figure 12 or Figure 13, so there is no problem. Furthermore, even if the customer requests an electronic receipt, a receipt R1 displaying accounting information as shown in Figure 11 is issued, so the display of the receipt section g3 in the transaction history details screen G3 can be omitted. 【0054】 On the other hand, if the home terminal 80 is a tablet device or the like, the distribution of product details and accounting information will display content equivalent to the usage history details screen G3 on the display unit 87 of the home terminal 80 (tablet device, etc.). Furthermore, if the home terminal 80 is a personal computer, the management device 10 will send an email or the like to the home terminal 80 informing it that product details and accounting information have been distributed. The home terminal 80 (personal computer, etc.) will then access the management device 10 via a communication line based on a predetermined URL (location of information resources (data, services, etc.) existing on the internet) contained in the email opened with its mailer (software for creating, sending, receiving, and saving / managing received emails), open the member's web page, and log in with a login ID and password to display content equivalent to the usage history details screen G3 on the display unit 87. 【0055】 Once the cleaning of the products is completed at the factory, the factory terminal 50, or the POS terminal 30 at the cleaning agency where the finished products are brought from the factory, inputs that the products are ready and transmits this information to the management device 10. The management device 10 then sends a notification to the customer's mobile terminal 70 or home terminal 80 that the products are ready. The customer, notified that their cleaned items are ready, goes to pick them up on or after the notified completion date. When the POS terminal 30 inputs that the items have been picked up and the management device 10 receives this information, the management device 10 records this pickup date in the "Pickup Date" column of the product history file 150 shown in Figure 8. The management device 10 also distributes various sales information, coupon information, survey requests, etc., to each mobile terminal 70 or home terminal 80 as needed. 【0056】 As explained above, the POS terminal (accounting processing device) 30 is a device that registers cleaning items (products) (step ST1'-3, etc.) and settles payments (step ST1'-4, etc.) based on the detailed information of the registered cleaning items. Furthermore, it is equipped with a receipt output means (CPU 31, etc., which executes steps ST1'-5 to ST1'-7) that refers to necessity information that is set in advance for each customer indicating whether or not an electronic receipt is needed, and outputs different receipts R1 and R2 issued in conjunction with the payment settlement according to the result of referring to the necessity information. This makes it possible to print only the necessary information on the receipt for customers who need an electronic receipt and customers who do not, thereby saving on receipts, which are consumables, and eliminating economic waste. In addition, a receipt is issued in either case, so various declarations can be easily and reliably made using this receipt (receipt). 【0057】 More specifically, the receipt output means issues receipt R1 without the product details information in the receipt issued upon payment if the result of the reference is required (in the case of a customer who needs an electronic receipt) (step ST1'-6), and issues receipt R2 (or R2-1 and R2-2) with the product details information in the receipt issued upon payment (step ST1'-7), thereby saving on receipts (consumables) and avoiding economic waste. 【0058】 Furthermore, the POS terminal 30 is equipped with a transmission means (CPU 31 or communication unit 43 that executes step ST1-8) that, if the result of referring to the necessity information is that the item is necessary, transmits at least the item details to the management device (external device) 10 once payment is made. This allows the management device 10 to send the item details to the customer's delivery destination (mobile terminal 70 or home terminal 80), and the electronic receipt displayed at the customer's delivery destination can be used as a receipt including the item details. This prevents the receipt from being accidentally lost or discarded, as it might be with a paper receipt. In this embodiment, even if the result of referring to the necessity information is that the item is not necessary, the item details are transmitted to the management device (external device) 10 once payment is made, for the purpose of data management by the management device 10. 【0059】 Furthermore, looking at the cleaning system 1 as a whole, the cleaning system (information processing system) 1 includes a POS terminal (accounting processing device) 30 that registers products and settles payments based on the detailed information of the registered products, and a management device (external device) 10 connected to the POS terminal 30 via a network (communication line) 100. The POS terminal 30 has a receipt output means that refers to pre-set necessity information indicating whether or not an electronic receipt is necessary, and outputs different receipts R1 and R2 issued in conjunction with the payment settlement according to the result of referring to the necessity information. The system includes at least a transmission means for transmitting detailed information of the goods for which payment has been made to the management device 10. The management device 10, on the other hand, includes a receiving means (such as a CPU 11 that executes step ST2'-1) that receives the transmitted detailed information of the goods at a predetermined timing, and a distribution means (such as a CPU 11 that executes steps ST2'-2 and ST2'-3) that refers to pre-set necessity information indicating whether an electronic receipt is necessary, and if the result of the reference is necessary, distributes the detailed information of the goods to a pre-set customer distribution destination (mobile terminal 70 or home terminal 80). 【0060】 Note that in the above-described cleaning system 1, it has been described that the customer possesses both the mobile terminal 70 and the home terminal 80. However, it may be the case where the customer possesses only one of them, or even the case where the customer possesses neither of them. In the case where the customer possesses neither of them, an electronic receipt is not necessary. 【0061】 Although the embodiments of the present invention have been described above, the present invention is not limited to the above embodiments, and various modifications are possible within the scope of the technical idea described in the claims, the specification, and the drawings. Note that any configuration not directly described in the specification and the drawings is within the scope of the technical idea of the present invention as long as it exhibits the functions and effects of the present invention. For example, in the above example, as an information processing system according to the present invention, an example of a cleaning system in which cleaning items are deposited and payment is settled, and the cleaned items are received at a later date has been shown. However, the present invention is not limited to this. For example, the present invention can be similarly applied to a repair system in which various repair items are deposited and payment is settled, and the repaired items are received at a later date. Further, the accounting processing device is not limited to a POS terminal, and may be, for example, a ticket issuing machine or the like. In short, the present invention can be applied to any system as long as it is an information processing system having an accounting processing device that registers goods and settles payment based on the detailed information of the registered goods, and an external device connected to the accounting processing device via a communication line. Also, the above-described home terminal is a concept including various terminals installed in the customer's personal home, office, or the like. 【Explanation of Reference Numerals】 【0062】 1 Cleaning system (information processing system) 10 Management device (external device) 11 CPU 13 ROM 15 RAM 17 Display unit 19 Hard disk (storage means) 21 Operation unit 23 Communication unit 25 Bus 30 POS terminal (accounting processing device) 31 CPU 33 ROM 34 Hard disk 35 RAM 37 Display unit 39 Input section 41 Printing section (Receipt issuing means) 43 Communication section 45 Bus 50 Factory terminal 70 Mobile terminal (Terminal device) 71 CPU 73 ROM 75 RAM 77 Touch panel integrated display section (Input and display section) 78 Communication section 79 Bus 80 Personal computer (Terminal device, Home terminal) 81 CPU 83 ROM 85 RAM 87 Display section 89 Input section 91 Printing section 93 Communication section 95 Bus 100 Network (Communication line) 110 Product file 130 Necessity file 150 Deposited goods history file R1 Receipt R2 Receipt R2-1, R2-2 Receipt G1 Membership card screen G2 Goods deposit list screen G3 Usage history details screen g1 Column of "In deposit" g2 Deposit slip part g3 Receipt part 11a Accounting information 12b Detail information 13a Accounting information 13b Detail information
