In the case of clothing, it can be information indicating size, color, etc. in addition to raw materials. The storage unit 303 creates usage details information classified for each receipt number and product (or service), and stores the corresponding information in association with the usage details information. In this embodiment, the storage unit 303 can be specifically realized by a flash memory, for example.

  The display instruction unit 304 receives a display instruction operation for information to be displayed on the display unit 307. For example, the display instruction unit 304 receives a designation operation such as an item to be displayed on the display unit 307 and a display form. Specifically, the display instruction unit 304 receives a display instruction for displaying, for example, changes in calorie intake during a predetermined period.

  Specifically, the display instruction unit 304 receives a display instruction for displaying, for example, a predicted value of a balance (expense) in a predetermined period. Furthermore, specifically, the display instruction unit 304 receives a display instruction for displaying, for example, usage details for a predetermined period. In this embodiment, specifically, the function as the display instruction unit 304 can be realized by the touch panel 102, for example.

  When the display instruction is received by the display instruction unit 304, the extraction unit 305 extracts the usage details information according to the content of the received display instruction from the storage unit 303. Specifically, for example, when the display instruction unit 304 receives a display instruction for displaying the total daily calorie intake, the usage in which the calories are recorded from the usage details information on the specified date. Extract detailed information only. When there are a plurality of extracted usage details information, the extraction unit 305 adds all the calories.

  When receiving a display instruction for displaying a change in calorie intake during a predetermined period, the extraction unit 305 extracts information used to display a change in calorie intake. In this case, only the usage details information in which calories are recorded is extracted from the usage details information for the date corresponding to the specified predetermined period.

  Specifically, for example, when the display instruction unit 304 receives a display instruction for displaying the predicted value of the balance for one month, the extraction unit 305 selects the display instruction from the detailed information on the corresponding date. The usage details information in which the amount paid for one month including the day of accepting is recorded is extracted. Specifically, for example, when a display instruction for displaying a predicted value of a balance for one month is received on March 25, the amount paid between March 1 and March 25 is recorded. Extract usage details information.

  Further, the extraction unit 305 further includes information indicating the total payment amount for each month for the past several months such as the previous month, the month before the previous month, and the information indicating the monthly spending upper limit registered in advance by the consumer, To extract. Then, a predicted value of the total payment amount for the current month is calculated based on the total monthly payment amount for the past several months, and a difference between the calculated predicted value and the extracted upper limit of expenditure is calculated.

  The display control unit 306 controls the display unit 307 to display content information or receipt information in a plurality of display forms based on the contents of the product or service stored in the storage unit 303. The display control unit 306 displays information according to the display instruction received by the display instruction unit 304.

  Specifically, the display control unit 306 displays a list of products or services that are simultaneously provided in a predetermined format based on, for example, information on the receipt destination and the receipt date and time among the receipt information. As a result, for example, a consumer who purchases canned coffee frequently displays multiple purchases of canned coffee in the list, so the consumer is aware that they are drinking a lot of canned coffee. It can be made easy to put on.

  The display control unit 306 displays the images of receipts related to shopping within a predetermined period so as to overlap each other. In this case, the predetermined period can be set to an arbitrary unit such as “1 week”, “1 month”, “1 year” in addition to “1 day”. Thereby, it is possible to display the receipts not only in one day but also in units of one week, one month, one year, etc. By displaying a display screen (see reference numeral 520 in FIG. 5) on which the images of the receipts are overlapped, it is easy for consumers to feel that they are shopping for the number of receipts. be able to.

  Further, the display control unit 306 may display images of receipts including the same type of product information so as to overlap each other. Specifically, for example, when canned coffee is targeted, images of all receipts including canned coffee as purchased products are displayed on the display unit 307. More specifically, for example, when a consumer who has a habit of purchasing canned coffee every day displays an image of a receipt for two months including canned coffee as a purchased product, an image of about 60 receipts. Are displayed in an overlapping state.

  For example, when the purchase history of the same type of product within a predetermined period is a certain number or more and the purchase history of the same type of product is more than a certain number in a plurality of types of products, the display control unit 306 includes the same type of product information. Prior to the display of the receipt image, a list of product types having a certain number or more may be displayed. Then, for the listed product types, selection of an arbitrary type of product may be accepted, and an image of a receipt of a product corresponding to the type for which the selection has been accepted may be selectively displayed.

  In this case, the selection can be realized, for example, when the consumer performs a predetermined operation on the electronic terminal device 100 via the touch panel 102. Specifically, for example, in the electronic terminal device 100, if there is a purchase history that “60 cans of canned coffee and 10 gums were purchased in one month”, a list including canned coffee and gum is displayed, It is possible to select whether to display an image of a coffee receipt or an image of a gum receipt. The consumer selects a product type for which an image of the receipt is to be displayed. As a result, the display control unit 306 can display an image of a receipt of the type of merchandise desired by the consumer.

  More specifically, for example, when buying cigarettes in bulk, the purchase is made in units of cartons (20). A consumer who consumes a large amount of tobacco (has a regular amount of cigarettes) is expected to purchase about 2 cartons of tobacco per month. According to the electronic terminal device 100 of this embodiment, a consumer who has such a consumption tendency sees an image of a receipt indicating that he / she has bought cigarettes in a unit of a predetermined period such as one year span. Will be able to.

  The display control unit 306 can display an image of a receipt (receipt) with a future date. Specifically, the display control unit 306, for example, a date after the reference date (the current day = April 1) with respect to a reference date such as the date of the day on which the image of the receipt is displayed. Receipts (receipts) of (after tomorrow = April 2, April 3, April 4,...) Can be displayed.

  In the image of a receipt displayed on a future date (hereinafter referred to as “future receipt” as appropriate), for example, product information of a product that is customarily purchased is displayed. Whether or not it is customarily purchased can be determined by whether or not it is purchased a plurality of times in a predetermined period such as “one week” or “one month”.

  In addition, whether or not you purchase customarily, for example, the interval between multiple purchases in a predetermined period such as “1 week” or “1 month” is “once a day”, “once a week” The determination can be made based on whether the interval is almost constant, such as “twice a month”. Furthermore, it can be determined whether there is regular purchase or not, for example, “from 8:30 to 9:00 on weekdays in the morning”.

  The display control unit 306 can clearly distinguish the image of the future receipt from the image of the receipt of the product actually purchased, for example, by indicating a frame line indicating the outline of the image of the future receipt with a dotted line. In such a state, an image of a future receipt is displayed (see, for example, FIGS. 12 and 13). Further, the image of the future receipt may be displayed in a lighter color than the image of the receipt of the product actually purchased, for example, the product information displayed on the image of the future receipt.

  When displaying an image of a future receipt, the electronic terminal device 100 displays an intention indicating whether or not there is an intention to actually purchase a product corresponding to the product information displayed on the image of the future receipt. You may make it make it. Specifically, for example, an operation key such as “Scheduled to purchase” is provided near the image of the future receipt, and the product information displayed on the image of the future receipt corresponds to whether or not an operation for the operation key has been accepted. It can be determined that there is an intention to actually purchase the product. If it is determined that there is an intention to actually purchase the product corresponding to the product information displayed in the image of the future receipt, the amount of the product scheduled to be purchased corresponding to the subsequent income and expenditure forecast should be included in the calculation. May be.

  Whether or not there is an intention to actually purchase the product corresponding to the product information displayed on the image of the future receipt is determined by the electronic terminal device 100 based on the past purchase history without the consumer's operation. You may make it judge. Specifically, for example, if the consumer continues to make a habitual purchase after displaying the image of the future receipt more than a predetermined number of times, it will continue to correspond to the product information displayed in the image of the future receipt. Since it can be determined that there is a high possibility of actually purchasing the product, the amount of the product scheduled to be purchased corresponding to the subsequent revenue and expenditure prediction may be included in the calculation while no special operation is performed.

  The display control unit 306 may display an image of the future receipt for each product when the product information to be displayed on the image of the future receipt covers a plurality of types of products. In this case, the intention display as to whether or not there is an intention to actually purchase the product corresponding to the product information displayed in the image of the future receipt is made for each of a plurality of types of products. Alternatively, in this case, the intention indication as to whether or not there is an intention to actually purchase the product corresponding to the product information displayed in the image of the future receipt can be collectively displayed for a plurality of types of products. May be.

  If the product information to be displayed on future receipts covers multiple types of products, the product information is not limited to displaying the image of future receipts for each product. Multiple product information may be displayed on the image of future receipts. In this case, the intention display of whether or not there is an intention to actually purchase a product that can be determined to have a habit of purchasing at the same time, displayed in the image of the future receipt, is collectively displayed for a plurality of types of products. You can make it happen. Alternatively, in this case, the intention display as to whether or not there is an intention to actually purchase the product corresponding to the product information displayed in the image of the future receipt may be made for each of a plurality of types of products.

  In addition, the display control unit 306 purchases the product information when the product information to be displayed on the image of the future receipt covers a plurality of types of products and the trends (classifications) of the products are similar. You may make it display the image of the future receipt about the goods which showed the intention, and the image of the future receipt about the goods with a similar tendency (classification) side by side. In this case, the consumer may select an image of a future receipt for a product actually intended to be purchased from a plurality of images of future receipts displayed side by side.

  Specifically, for example, based on the purchase history of the past three months, the consumption trend of “buy canned coffee every morning on weekdays”, and the trend of consumption “purchased tea bottles every morning on weekdays” in the recent week , It is judged that the trend (classification) of canned coffee and beverages purchased as “beverages purchased on weekday mornings” are similar in product trends (classification), and the image of future receipts for canned coffee And images of future receipts about PET bottle tea. The consumer is then prompted to select either the future receipt image for canned coffee or the future receipt image for PET bottle tea.

  This can also be used when there is a change in habituality, for example, when the number of products that are customarily purchased increases or when the products that are customarily purchased are changed to similar products. It is possible to display the future receipt image according to the consumption trend.

  Further, the display control unit 306 changes the display mode of the future receipt image when an intention to actually purchase the product corresponding to the product information displayed on the future receipt image is displayed. Also good. The display form of the image of the future receipt in this case indicates that it is an image of the future receipt displaying the product information of the product for which the intention to purchase is actually displayed, and the receipt of the product actually purchased It is preferable to distinguish it from the image. Specifically, for example, the outline indicating the outline of the future receipt image is indicated by a thick dotted line, or the future receipt image is displayed in a color different from the image of the receipt of the actually purchased product. .

  In this way, while displaying the image of the future receipt, the consumer is clearly informed whether or not he / she intends to actually purchase the product for the displayed future receipt image. On the other hand, it is possible to provide an opportunity to examine future shopping, “whether or not to continue shopping with habituality as it is”. And by making consideration about future shopping, it is possible to make the consumer spend less costly.

  If the “Purchase Scheduled” key is not operated and the planned purchase date and time has passed without purchasing the product shown in the image of the future receipt, “I did not purchase a product that I had customarily purchased.” Judgment may be made to separately store product information such as the corresponding product and the price of the product. Based on the separately stored product information, the total amount of money and the calories that are consumed without assuming that the product was actually purchased are calculated periodically or when a predetermined input operation is performed. May be displayed.

  As a result, it is possible to clearly indicate to the consumer the amount of money that is less necessary, that is, avoiding wasteful consumption, calories that are not consumed, and the like. In this way, consumers are visualized and guided to low-needed expenses that could be suppressed by stopping the purchase of products that had been habitually purchased and calories that were not consumed. As a result, it can be expected that consumers will have a sense of accomplishment and effectively suppress low-needed purchases such as “little purchase”, “little bite” or impulse purchase.

(Example of data table)
Next, an example of the data table will be described. FIG. 4 is an explanatory diagram showing an example of a data table provided in the electronic terminal device 100 according to the embodiment of the present invention. In FIG. 4, the data table 400 stores usage details information for each receipt No. and product (or service). The usage details information includes, for example, receipt No., date and time when expenditure was made, store name, product type, product name, calorie, unit price, quantity, total amount, and individual information.

  Specifically, for example, a consumer who purchased “△△△ gum” and “XX can coffee” at store A at “08:50 on March 2, 2009” Similarly, if “△△△ gum” is purchased at the store A at “20:30”, “(date) March 2, 2009, (time) 08:50, (store name) A” in the data table. , (Product type) food, (product name) Δ △△ gum,... ”And“ (date) March 2, 2009, (time) 20:30, (store name) A , (Product type) food, (product name) ΔΔΔ gum,... ”Are created and stored. Specifically, for example, even when the same product is purchased every morning at the same store, different usage details information is created and stored for each date and time.

  When a plurality of the same products are purchased in one payment, a plurality of quantities are displayed. More specifically, for example, if you purchased 2 “△△△ gum” and “XX can coffee” at store A at “08:50 on March 2, 2009,” “( Date) March 2, 2009, (Time) 08:50, (Store Name) A, (Product Type) Food, (Product Name) △△△ Gum, ..., (Unit Price) 100, (Quantity) 2,... (Total amount) 200 ”is created and stored.

  Specifically, for example, a consumer who purchased 1 can of “△△△ gum” and “canned coffee” at store A at “08:50 on March 2, 2009” Immediately after, at the store A at “08:51 on March 2, 2009”, one “△△△ gum” is stored in the data table, “(Date) March 2, 2009, (Time) 08:50” Usage details such as “minute, (store name) A, (product type) food, (product name) ΔΔΔ gum,..., (Unit price) 100, (quantity) 1,. Information, "(Date) March 2, 2009, (Time) 08:51, (Store Name) A, (Product Type) Food, (Product Name) △△△ Gum, ..., (Unit Price) 100, (quantity) 1,..., (Total amount) 100 ”are created and stored as separate usage details information. .

(Outline of functions of electronic terminal device 100 and display screen example)
Next, an outline of functions and an example of a display screen of the electronic terminal device 100 according to the embodiment of the present invention will be described. FIG. 5 is an explanatory diagram showing an overview of functions and a display screen example of the electronic terminal device 100 according to the embodiment of the present invention.

  In FIG. 5, reference numerals 501, 502, 503, 504, 505, and 506 indicate receipts printed on paper issued in shopping. Each payment proved by receipts 501, 502, 503, 504, 505, 506 is made separately. For this reason, conventionally, the same number of receipts as the number of payments have been issued.

  On the other hand, the electronic terminal device 100 of this embodiment receives the receipts 501, 502, 503, 504, 505, 506 instead of receiving these receipts 501, 502, 503, 504, 505, 506. The described information is stored in the electronic terminal device 100.

  Specifically, at the time of payment, for example, the consumer declares the use of the electronic terminal device 100 before the “deposit / cash key” at the POS terminal is operated. The store clerk who has received the declaration of use of the electronic terminal device 100 transfers the contents to be printed on the receipt, such as the product content information and the payment receipt information, to the electronic terminal device 100 before operating the “deposit / cash key”. Do the following operations. When the POS terminal and the electronic terminal device 100 are connected by wire, the connection is established before the “deposit / cash key” is operated.

  As a result, when the “deposit / cash key” is operated and the payment is completed, the contents printed on the receipt, such as the contents information of the product and the receipt information of the payment, are transferred to the electronic terminal device 100. . At this time, in addition to the product content information and payment receipt information, information indicating the format of the receipt is also transmitted to the electronic terminal device 100.

  When information such as product content information and payment receipt information is transferred to the electronic terminal device 100, a receipt printed on paper, which has been conventionally issued, is not issued. That is, information such as product content information and payment receipt information is transferred to the electronic terminal device 100 in place of issuing a receipt printed on conventional paper.

  The electronic terminal device 100 creates usage details information obtained by classifying information such as product content information and payment receipt information transferred from the POS terminal for each receipt number and product (or service). Corresponding information is stored for each detail information. The electronic terminal device 100 also stores information indicating the receipt (receipt) format (receipt form) in association with each usage detail information.

  In the electronic terminal device 100, the usage details information stored in the data table 400 is displayed in the form of display screens 510 and 520, for example. The display screen 510 is displayed on the display 101a, and the display screen 520 is displayed on the display 101b. The display screen 510 shows an image showing the positions of operation keys for changing the display form on the display 101b, such as a “calorie” key 511, a “balance forecast” key 512, a “detail” key 513, and the like.

  The display screen 510 shows the purchase date and time, the purchase store, and the total purchase price in association with each transaction for one time. In the display screen 510, only the total amount for one transaction is shown. This makes it possible for the consumer to recognize when and in what store and how much purchases have been made.

  The display screen 520 displays an image of a receipt issued for each transaction. On the display screen 520, an image of a receipt corresponding to the transaction displayed on the display screen 510 is displayed. When there are a plurality of transactions displayed on the display screen 510, the display screen 520 displays an image in which a plurality of receipts indicated by the respective image images overlap.

  Thus, by displaying an image in which a plurality of receipts are overlapped, an image in which a large number of receipts are overlapped is displayed as the number of shopping is increased. As a result, the number of times of shopping can be intuitively and easily shown to consumers. In other words, by displaying not only numbers but also images of receipts, it is possible to promote warnings about shopping contents and warnings to suppress unnecessary shopping by the quantity of the receipts. The effect can be expected.

  In addition, when there is a large amount of small purchases such as one gum, one can of coffee, etc., an image is displayed on the display screen 520 such that a lot of short receipts overlap. If the amount of money per transaction is small, the impression of the transaction is weak and it is easy to forget the fact of the shopping as compared to expensive shopping.

  For this reason, even if you make multiple purchases with a small amount per time, you may feel like you are not spending money, but if the amount per time is small, the number of times increases. In many cases, the total expenditure is too much to ignore.

  In this embodiment, the display such as the display screen 520 is displayed on the electronic terminal device 100, so that as the number of purchases increases, an image in which a large number of receipts are overlapped is displayed. It is possible to provide easy-to-understand guidance to consumers that the frequency is high and the expenses are high. As described above, according to the electronic terminal device 100 of this embodiment, even if the receipt printed on the paper is not received, the receipt printed on the paper can give the “impact by the issued amount” to the consumer. Can be given to.

  The receipt image displayed on the display screen 520 is displayed such that the receipt image corresponding to an arbitrary transaction designated on the display screen 510 is positioned at the forefront. In the display screen 520, the receipt image of receipt No. 3 is designated and displayed in the foreground. As a result, the consumer can immediately confirm the details of the transaction item displayed on the display screen 510. When there is no special designation, the receipt images in order of smaller receipt numbers, that is, images of receipts with earlier purchase date or time may be displayed on the front.

(Display screen example)
Next, an example of a display screen displayed on the display 101b will be described. 6, 7, 8, and 9 are explanatory diagrams illustrating display screen examples. Display screens 600, 700, 800, and 900 of FIGS. 6, 7, 8, and 9 are displayed on the display 101b.

  In FIG. 6, the display screen 600 is displayed when a “calorie” key 511 is operated on the display screen 510. The display screen 600 is displayed based on usage details information including information about calories in the usage details information. In the display screen 600, the transition of the calorie intake up to the date in the month including the date when the “calorie” key 511 is operated is shown.

  The display screen 600 shows a line graph 601 with the horizontal axis representing the date and the vertical axis representing the calorie intake. By showing the transition of the calorie intake by the line graph 601, it is possible to easily discriminate the amount of the calorie intake from the previous day and to guide the calorie intake easily.

  In addition, on the display screen 600, an instruction line 602 indicating a preset calorie management value is shown. The instruction line 602 is displayed with some emphasis compared to the surrounding area. The consumer can easily determine, for example, whether or not the calorie intake exceeds the calorie management value set as a target by comparing the line graph 601 and the instruction line 602.

  In FIG. 7, the display screen 700 is displayed when a “balance forecast” key 512 is operated on the display screen 510. The display screen 700 is displayed based on all usage details information in the month including the date on which the “balance forecast” key 512 is operated. In the display screen 700, a line graph 701 is shown in which the horizontal axis represents the date and the vertical axis represents the total amount of expenditure in the current month.

  In addition, in the display screen 700, a line graph 702 indicating a predicted value of the total amount of expenditure in the current month is shown for the part corresponding to the date after the next day of the date in the month in which the “income forecast” key 512 includes the date. Has been. In addition, in the display screen 700, an instruction line 703 indicating a preset spending upper limit is shown.

  On the display screen 700, the total amount of the current month's expenditure depends on whether or not the line graph 702 indicating the predicted value of the total amount of the current month's expenditure and the instruction line 703 indicating the upper limit of the expenditure intersect in the display screen 700. It is possible to guide the prediction of whether or not the upper limit of expenditure is exceeded.

  The display screen 700 shows that the total amount of expenditure for the current month is calculated by the intersection of the line graph 702 indicating the predicted value of the total amount of expenditure for this month and the instruction line 703 indicating the upper limit for expenditure. Indicates that the amount exceeds. In the example of FIG. 7, on December 23, the total amount of expenditure for the current month is expected to exceed the expenditure upper limit amount.

  When the total amount of expenditure for the current month is predicted to exceed the upper limit amount of expenditure, a warning message such as “budget overrun is predicted on December 23” may be displayed on the display screen 700. Accordingly, it is possible to reliably inform the consumer that the total amount of the current month's expenditure may exceed the upper limit of expenditure.

  In this way, by showing the total amount of expenditure for the current month, the predicted value of the total amount of expenditure for the current month, and the predicted value of the total amount of expenditure for the current month in a graph, the consumer can easily understand the status of expenses. can do.

  In FIG. 8, the display screen 800 is displayed when the “detail” key 513 is operated on the display screen 510. The display screen 800 displays a list of expenses in a month including the date when the “detail” key 513 is operated, classified by receipt number and product (or service).

  In the display screen 800, a receipt number, a date, a time, a store name, a product type, a product name, a calorie, a unit price, a quantity, and a total amount are shown for each classified item. Each item displayed on the display screen 800 is acquired from the data table 400. In FIG. 8, the individual information column 801 displays the detailed contents for each classification item. In the individual information column 801, detailed contents about each classification item are selectively displayed.

  In FIG. 9, the display screen 900 is displayed when the product type “clothing” is selected on the display screen 800. On the display screen 900, the individual information column 801 displays information such as the material, size, and price of the selected clothing item (sweater). An image can be displayed in the individual information column 801. As a result, it is possible to more easily guide the detailed information about what product.

  When a classification item other than “clothing” is selected on the display screen 800, the corresponding information is displayed in the individual information column 801 on the display screen 800. For example, when any store name is selected from each classification item, information about the corresponding store such as the address and telephone number of the store is displayed in the individual information column 801.

  For example, when “medicine” is selected as the product type, information such as the prescription and active ingredient of the corresponding drug (◯ × cold medicine) is displayed in the individual information column 801. For example, when “clothing” is selected as the product type, information such as the material, size, and price of the corresponding clothing (sweater) is displayed.

(Processing procedure of electronic terminal device 100 (part 1))
Next, a processing procedure of the electronic terminal device 100 according to the embodiment of the present invention will be described. FIG. 10 is a flowchart showing a processing procedure of the electronic terminal device 100 according to the embodiment of the present invention.

  In the flowchart of FIG. 10, first, it is determined whether or not information such as product content information and payment receipt information has been acquired (step S1001), and information such as product content information and payment receipt information is acquired. Wait (step S1001: No). When information such as product content information and payment receipt information is acquired (step S1001: Yes), the acquired information is stored in the data table (step S1002), and the series of processing ends.

  In step S1002, usage details information is created by classifying the acquired information, such as product content information and payment receipt information, for each receipt number and product (or service) according to each item in the data table. Information to be stored is associated with each piece of usage detail information.

(Processing procedure of electronic terminal device 100 (2))
Next, a processing procedure of the electronic terminal device 100 according to the embodiment of the present invention will be described. FIG. 11 is a flowchart showing a processing procedure of the electronic terminal device 100 according to the embodiment of the present invention.

  In the flowchart of FIG. 11, first, the process waits until there is a display instruction by an operation on the touch panel 102 (step S1101: No). If there is a display instruction (step S1101: Yes), corresponding information is extracted according to the content of the display instruction (step S1102).

  In step S1102, for example, when the display instruction determined in step S1101: Yes is “balance forecast”, the usage details information up to the date in the month including the date on which the operation of the display instruction is performed is set in advance. Information indicating the spending upper limit amount is extracted from the data table.

  Next, based on the information extracted in step S1102, a display image for displaying the corresponding display screen is created (step S1103). In step S1103, the payment amount in the extracted usage details information is added for each date to calculate the total amount for each date. Then, the calculated total amount for each date is added every day, and the total amount up to each date is calculated for each date in the month including the date on which the display instruction operation is performed.

  Further, the total amount of the payment amount in the extracted usage details information is calculated, and the total amount up to the date in the month including the date when the display instruction operation is performed is calculated. At this time, it may be determined whether or not the total amount up to the date in the month including the date on which the display instruction is operated exceeds the upper limit of expenditure.

  Further, a predicted value of the transition of the total amount in the future is calculated based on the transition of the total amount up to each date in the month including the date when the display instruction operation is performed and the preset total amount of expenditure. The predicted value of the transition of the total amount in the future is, for example, the slope indicated by the transition of the total amount up to each date in the month including the date on which the display instruction was operated in a graph with the date on the horizontal axis and the total amount on the vertical axis Calculate based on (degree of increase in total amount).

  In this embodiment, even after the date when the display instruction operation is performed, the slope (the increase of the total amount) indicated by the transition of the total amount up to each date in the month including the date when the display instruction operation is performed in the above graph. Assuming that it increases with the same slope (degree of increase in total amount), the predicted value of the transition of the total amount in the future is calculated.

  Then, based on the predicted value of the transition of the total amount in the future and the preset total amount of expenditure, the prediction date when the predicted value reaches the total amount of expenditure is specified. Further, it is determined whether or not the identified predicted date is included in a month including a date on which a display instruction operation is performed. When the identified predicted date is included in the month including the date when the display instruction operation is performed, the total amount of expenditure exceeds the upper limit amount of expenditure for the current month.

  Next, the display 101 is controlled based on the display image created in step S1103, the display image created in step S1103 is displayed on the display 101 (step S1104), and the series of processing ends.

  As described above, conventionally, receipts printed on paper are issued each time a product is purchased at a store such as a convenience store, a supermarket, or a department store, so the receipt of paper received by consumers increases and it becomes difficult to organize. There was a problem that. On the other hand, the electronic terminal device 100 according to this embodiment stores information that has been conventionally printed on paper in the electronic terminal device 100 without printing on paper, so that the content information of the product and the receipt of payment are stored. Receipt information that has been printed on conventional paper receipts such as information can be centrally managed, and the stored receipt information can be aggregated and analyzed for various items.

  The electronic terminal device 100 according to this embodiment includes product information (product name, unit price name, quantity, total amount, material information, etc.) obtained by product sales registration processing, store information (store name, phone number, coupon, point) Etc.), a storage unit 303 that can capture and aggregate data consisting of date information, etc., a processing unit that analyzes the data and calculates calorie calculation and monthly expenditure forecasts, and receives such information for each item as a receipt type or an arbitrary And a display 101 that displays the record type for each item and displays the analysis result as a graph or a picture.

  And the electronic terminal device 100 of this embodiment acquires detailed information, such as purchased goods and store information, for example, calculates future forecast expenditures from past expenditure results, and confirms whether the budget is exceeded or not. Can be done. In addition, the electronic terminal device 100 according to this embodiment can set an arbitrary monthly budget and calorie intake, and can compare the current intake with the calorie intake for the consumer. Can be urged to manage.

  Specifically, by using the electronic terminal device 100 of this embodiment, it is possible to manage the balance of the total amount of expenditure. In this case, a monthly spending upper limit is set in advance, the daily spending is accumulated, and the accumulated spending is subtracted from the spending upper limit. As a result, since the remaining amount of the current month is calculated every time there is an expense, it is possible to always display the remaining amount of the current month (available remaining amount).

  In this way, by guiding the remaining amount with respect to the monthly spending upper limit, it is possible to select a product to be purchased while paying attention to the remaining amount in daily shopping. As a result, it is possible to suppress wasteful use such as purchase after the necessity even though the necessity is low.

  In addition, when the function of the electronic terminal device 100 of this embodiment is mounted on a card such as a credit card, it becomes possible to manage expenditure for each card. Thereby, for example, as a part of the service of a card company that is a card issuer such as a credit card, by issuing a card equipped with the function of the electronic terminal device 100 of the embodiment, to differentiate from other companies, It can contribute to the acquisition of card members.

  Specifically, by using the electronic terminal device 100 of this embodiment, the balance of payment by small payment can be managed. In this case, an upper limit (small amount upper limit amount) for small amount payment per day is set in advance. Then, the actual purchase amount is less than the set small amount upper limit amount by day, and the receipt corresponding to the date when the total amount per day exceeds the set small amount upper limit amount is displayed on the display screen 520 or the like. To do.

  In this way, when the total amount per day exceeds the small amount settlement upper limit set, it is indicated that the total amount per day exceeds the set small amount settlement upper limit or applicable. By showing the receipt image of the date to the consumer, it is possible to make the consumer easily understand how much waste was spent.

  Specifically, the health of the consumer can be managed by using the electronic terminal device 100 of this embodiment. In this case, an upper limit value of the calorie intake per day is set in advance. And when food and a drink are purchased, the calorie value of these foods and drinks is extracted, and the extracted calorie value is totaled for every date.

  Then, the calorie value calculated for each date is compared with the upper limit value of the calorie intake per day, and the calorie intake per day based on the calorie value calculated is the amount of calorie intake per day. If there is a date exceeding the upper limit, a receipt corresponding to the date is displayed on the display screen 520 or the like.

  Thus, when the calorie intake per day exceeds the upper limit of the calorie intake per day, the calorie intake per day exceeds the upper limit of the calorie intake per day. It is possible to make the consumer aware of health and to encourage health management by informing the consumer or showing the receipt image of the corresponding date to the consumer. And with health management, by refraining from purchasing sweets and juices, wasteful consumption can be suppressed along with health management.

  More specifically, by using the electronic terminal device 100 of this embodiment, it is possible to deepen understanding about the product. In this case, specifically, individual information is displayed for each product in the individual information column 801 by specifying the product type of interest among the usage details information about the purchased product.

  This makes it possible to know the method of taking medicine, for example, the appropriate washing method of the clothing by knowing the material of the clothing, and the appropriate response to the purchased product is possible. This makes it possible to effectively use purchased products without wasting them. For example, “It was not effective because it was the wrong way to take”, “Sometimes the clothes were stained because the washing method was wrong. It is possible to eliminate the waste of life.

  The various analysis functions described above are realized according to various methods such as using annual usage units, monthly units, or usage details of the same month in each year. Alternatively, the expected expenditure may be calculated from the most recent one month expenditure.

  Moreover, the setting function in the electronic terminal device 100 of this embodiment realizes target setting of items such as an upper limit of expenditure. Thus, by setting it as the structure which can set a target value, a target and a present value can be contrasted.

(Another display screen example)
Next, an example of a display screen displayed on the display 101b will be described. 12 and 13 are explanatory diagrams showing another display screen example different from the display screen examples shown in FIG. 6, FIG. 7, FIG. 8, and FIG. Display screens 1200 and 1300 in FIGS. 12 and 13 are displayed on the display 101b.

  In FIG. 12, the display screen 1200 displays images 1210 and 1220 of future receipts. On the display screen 1200, since the product information displayed on the future receipt images 1210 and 1220 covers a plurality of types of products, a plurality of future receipt images 1210 and 1220 for each product are displayed. The future receipt images 1210 and 1220 are indicated by dotted lines with frame lines 1211 and 1221 indicating the outline of the respective future receipt images 1210 and 1220.

  In the future receipt image 1210, 1220, information indicating the scheduled time (hereinafter referred to as “scheduled purchase date / time”) for purchasing the product corresponding to the product information displayed in the future receipt image 1210, 1220 is displayed. May be. The planned purchase date and time is payment receipt information in the data table shown in FIG. 4 (date and time when payment was made, store name, product type, product name, calorie, unit price, quantity, total price, individual information, etc.) Can be calculated based on Specifically, for example, an average value of the time for purchasing the corresponding product in a predetermined period such as “past one week” or “past one month” can be calculated as the planned purchase date and time.

  Further, on the display screen 1200, “Purchase scheduled” keys 1212 and 1222 are displayed at positions corresponding to the images 1210 and 1220 of the future receipts on the display 101, respectively. In this embodiment, since the touch panel 102 is provided on the display surface side of the display 101a, a “scheduled to purchase” key is provided at a position corresponding to each future receipt image 1210, 1220 on the display 101. 1212 and 1222 are displayed. When the “purchase scheduled” keys 1212 and 1222 are operated, the electronic terminal device 100 determines that the consumer will purchase the product displayed in the future receipt images 1210 and 1220 in the near future.

  In the display screen 1200, since the touch panel 102 is provided only on the display 101a side, the “scheduled purchase” keys 1212 and 1222 are displayed on the display 101a. It is not limited to. For example, by providing the touch panel 102 on the display 101b side, the “purchase scheduled” key may be displayed at a position closer to the image of each future receipt. Alternatively, a “purchase scheduled” key realized by a hard key may be provided separately.

  In FIG. 13, the display screen 1300 displays an image 1310 of the future receipt when it is indicated that there is an intention to actually purchase the product corresponding to the product information displayed in the image of the future receipt. ing. In the future receipt image 1310, a frame line 1311 indicating the outline of the future receipt image 1310 is indicated by a thicker dotted line than the frame line 1211 indicating the outline of the future receipt image 1210. Accordingly, it is possible to indicate that the image is a future receipt image 1310 displaying the product information of the product for which the intention to purchase is actually displayed, and to distinguish it from the image of the receipt of the actually purchased product.

  The future receipt images 1210, 1220, and 1310 are displayed, for example, from a predetermined time before the scheduled purchase date and time. Specifically, for example, “12 hours before the planned purchase date and time”, “24 hours before the planned purchase date and time”, “3 days before the planned purchase date and time”, and the like are displayed. The future receipt images 1210, 1220, and 1310 may be automatically displayed when the electronic terminal device 100 is activated, for example, after a predetermined time before the scheduled purchase date and time. This allows the consumer to fully consider whether or not to purchase the product shown in the future receipt image.

  In addition, the images of future receipts 1210, 1220, and 1310 are automatically stopped when the planned purchase date and time have passed without purchasing the products shown in the images of future receipts 1210, 1220, and 1310. You may do it. In this case, information indicating the total amount of money and the calories consumed without taking the product may be displayed when it is assumed that the corresponding product has been actually purchased for a certain period after the display is stopped. Specifically, the information indicating the total amount of money when it is assumed that the corresponding product was actually purchased or the calorie that has not been consumed is specifically, for example, at the timing when the electronic terminal device 100 is activated after the planned purchase date and time.
