Abstract

PURPOSE:To contrive the reduction of a burden imposed on a client and the shortening of a processing time by providing a first transaction selection display function, a second transaction selection display function, a continuous transaction storage function and a continuous processing function on a main controller. CONSTITUTION:A first transaction selection display function 7 can select arbitrarily one of all transaction subjects 8-13 handled by a device, and can set arbitrarily a combination of the transaction subjects 8-13 processed continuously by using a first and a second transaction selection display functions 7, 21. Also, the continuous processing function can advance the processing by an omission as for the same operation as the one executed already at the time of the previous processing of the transaction subjects 8-13 in the customer's operation required for the transaction. Accordingly, as for the work such as an insertion of a card, an input of an identification number, a receipt of the card, etc., it becomes unnecessary to repeat it at every transaction subject, by which the reduction of a burden imposed on a customer and the shortening of a processing time can be contrived.

Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] [Industrial Application Field 1] The present invention is directed to an automated teller machine installed in a financial institution such as a bank, which processes a transaction selected by the customer by the customer's own operation. It is related to the device.

[Prior Art] Figures 2 and 3 show automatic teller machines conventionally used in financial institutions such as banks, and Figure 2 is a perspective view of the exterior of the automatic teller machine. 3 is a flowchart of processing operations in the apparatus of FIG. 2.

The automated teller machine shown in Fig. 2 accepts passbooks, magnetic cards, (C-cards, etc.) as input media on which information such as customer account numbers is written, and the automated teller machine accepts bankbooks, magnetic cards, (C-cards, etc.) as input media on which information such as the customer's account number is written.
``Withdrawal'', ``Deposit'', ``Transfer'', ``Transfer'', ``Enter passbook''.

It processes various transactions such as "balance inquiries".

In the figure, the reference numeral 1 is a CR7741724 unit, 2 is a banknote deposit/withdrawal port which also serves as a statement slip discharge port, 3 is a coin deposit/withdrawal port, 4 is a card insertion/receipt slot, and 5 is a passbook insertion/receipt slot.

The CR7741724 section l is composed of a CRT display main body and a touch-sensitive input panel provided on the front side of the main body, and functions as a display section for displaying guidance to customers and for inputting transaction information by customers. It also has a function as an input section.

The transaction processing operation of the conventional automatic teller machine configured as described above will be explained based on FIG. 3.

The processing operation shown in FIG. 3 shows the case where the customer uses a card (magnetic card) as an input medium, and the steps marked with a book mark in the figure are operations performed by the customer.

First, at the start of a transaction, the CR7741724 Part 1
A transaction selection screen 7 (see FIG. 4) is displayed (step 101).

Specifically, as shown in FIG.
A limited list of items are displayed, and an operation guide 15 and a video (animation) 16 are displayed, allowing the customer to select one desired transaction item from the list.

The customer selects a transaction item by pressing his or her finger on the position where the desired transaction item is displayed on the screen shown in FIG. 4 (step 102).

Then, processing for the transaction item selected by pressing the button starts.

In the figure, the process shown in steps 120 to 130 is for "balance inquiry", the process shown in steps 14.0 to 153 is for withdrawal, and the process shown in steps 160 to 175 is for "withdrawal". The deposit is for deposit.

In any transaction item, the card insertion instruction screen 17 (see Figure 5) for instructing card insertion is first displayed on the CR7741724 section 1 (step 12).
0,140,160).

The card insertion instruction screen 17, as shown in FIG.
An operation guide 19 indicating that a card, which is an input medium held by the customer, should be inserted, and an illustration 20 showing insertion of the card are displayed.

In addition, for any transaction item, when the card is inserted, the information written on the card stripe is read (steps 121, 141, and 161), but if the selected transaction item is "Balance Inquiry" or "Withdrawal" ”, you will then be required to enter your PIN number.

In addition, in the case of any transaction item, once the card and statement slip are received by the customer and all processing related to the transaction is completed, the process returns to step 101 on the initial screen in order to transact with the next customer. .

By the way, in today's world where automatic transfers and automatic transfers of salaries and utility bills have become popular, it is becoming difficult to accurately keep track of the balance in one's account.Especially,
This trend is becoming more prevalent these days, when the number of opportunities for customers to make transactions using automatic teller machines using cards and the like is rapidly increasing.

Therefore, recently, when making a transaction using an automated teller machine, it has become increasingly common to first check the balance by performing a "balance inquiry" transaction, and then perform the desired transaction. There is.

However, the conventional automated teller machine mentioned above originally
- It is assumed that one transaction item is processed in each transaction. For example, if the same customer wants to perform both "balance inquiry" and "withdrawal," first, on the transaction selection screen 7, select " ``Balance Inquiry'' is selected, and then all predetermined operations for ``Balance Inquiry'' are performed in accordance with the instructions sequentially displayed on the CRT display unit 1, thereby completing the processing related to ``Balance Inquiry''.

After confirming that the display on the CRT display section l has returned to the initial transaction selection screen 7, the user must perform the operation for "withdrawal".

In other words, in the case of conventional devices, when there are multiple transaction items to be processed, tasks such as selecting the transaction item, inserting the card, entering the PIN number, receiving the card, and receiving the statement slip, This has to be repeated for each transaction item, which increases the number of operations and operation time required by the customer, resulting in problems such as an increase in the burden on the customer and an increase in processing time.

Therefore, in order to solve such problems, research has been conducted on automatic transaction devices that can continuously process m transactions including "balance inquiry", and so far, Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 58-27260, Publication No. 1982-256079, Japanese Patent Application Publication No. 1986-
No. 132296, Japanese Patent Application Laid-open No. 61-26198,
Related technology was announced in Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 137658/1983.

[Problem to be solved by the invention] However, Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 58-27260 and Japanese Patent Laid-open No. 62
-The technology described in Publication No. 256079 allows for "balance inquiry" when the customer first selects "payment" as the transaction item.
, so to speak, it is limited to cases where the combination of transactions that become effective through continuous processing is a certain combination, and if the customer first selects "Balance Inquiry", the operation There has been a problem in that the benefits of continuous processing, such as reducing the burden on the customer and shortening the processing time by simplifying the process, cannot be achieved.

Also, JP-A-60-132296 and JP-A-61-
The technology described in Japanese Patent Application Laid-open No. 26198 and Japanese Patent Application Laid-open No. 137658/1983 has a problem in that when only "balance inquiry" is performed, the number of operations required by the customer increases by one.

The present invention has been made in view of the above-mentioned circumstances, so that when the same customer wants to process multiple transactions in succession, the combination of transaction items to be processed continuously is not limited to a certain combination (initially It is also possible to select balance inquiry when selecting the transaction item, and it is possible to smoothly process multiple transactions in succession while suppressing the increase in the number of operations performed by the customer.Moreover, 1. If the transaction to be processed is a single transaction, for example, Even if the only transaction to be processed is a balance inquiry, there will be no inconvenience such as an increase in the number of operations performed by the customer. The purpose is to provide trading equipment.

[Means for Solving the Problems] The automatic transaction device according to the present invention includes an input medium processing system that reads predetermined transaction information from the input medium when a customer inserts the input medium into the device, and a system that reads predetermined transaction information from the input medium when a customer inserts the input medium into the device, and a This automatic transaction device is equipped with a customer input system for allowing the customer to input other information necessary for processing the transaction items selected by the customer.

Specifically, there is a first transaction selection display function that enumerates a plurality of transaction items handled and allows the customer to select one of the transaction items, and a transaction selection display function that selects a transaction item separately from this first transaction selection display function. a second transaction selection display function that allows the customer to select transactions; a continuous transaction storage function that stores the transaction items selected by the customer using the second transaction selection display function; A continuous processing function is provided for sequentially processing other transaction items stored in the continuous transaction storage function after the processing for the transaction item is completed.

In the first transaction selection display function, one of all transaction items handled by the device can be arbitrarily selected, and by using the first and second transaction selection display functions, It is possible to set any combination of transaction items to be processed continuously.

Further, if there is a transaction item that is desired to be processed consecutively to the transaction item selected by the first transaction selection display function, the second transaction selection display function inserts the input medium after selecting the transaction item. On the other hand, if only the transaction items selected by the first transaction selection function are required, an instruction is given to insert the input medium as is.

Furthermore, in the continuous processing function, among the customer operations required for a transaction, the same operations as those already performed when processing the previous transaction item are omitted and the process continues. It is structured as follows.

[Function] The automatic transaction device according to the present invention is equipped with a first transaction selection display function and a second transaction selection display function, and first, the first transaction selection display function is used to select a transaction item. and
Next, when an input medium is inserted into the device after selecting a transaction item using the second transaction selection display function, the transaction item selected using the first transaction selection display function and the second transaction selection display function are displayed. The transaction items selected using the transaction item will be processed sequentially.

Here, the first transaction selection display function can arbitrarily select one of all transaction items handled by the device, and by using the first and second transaction selection display functions, Any combination of transaction items to be processed continuously can be set.

In other words, when the same customer wants to process 1M transactions in a row, the combination of transaction items to be processed sequentially is not limited to a certain combination, and balance inquiry is selected when selecting the first transaction item. It is also possible.

In the case of continuous processing, since the transaction items to be processed are already stored by the continuous transaction storage function, there is no need for the customer to select the transaction item again. In addition, the continuous processing function skips operations that are the same as those already performed by the customer when processing a previous transaction item, allowing the process to proceed without inserting a card, entering a PIN, or accepting a card. It is no longer necessary to repeat these operations for each transaction item.

Therefore, when processing a plurality of transaction items in succession, it is possible to prevent an increase in the number of operations performed by the customer, thereby reducing the burden on the customer and shortening the processing time.

Further, in the automatic transaction device according to the present invention, when processing one transaction item independently, it is sufficient to simply insert the card without selecting the transaction item in the second transaction selection display function, and No special keystrokes are required to indicate what to do.

Therefore, even when a single transaction is to be processed, for example, when the transaction to be processed is only a "balance inquiry", the inconvenience of an increase in the number of operations performed by the customer does not occur.

[Example] Hereinafter, an example of an automatic transaction device according to the present invention will be described.

The automated teller machine of one embodiment is a so-called automated teller machine installed in financial institutions such as banks, and uses a passbook, magnetic card, etc. as an input medium on which information such as a customer's account number is written.
Accepts IC cards, etc., and processes various transactions such as ``withdrawals'', ``deposits'', ``transfers'', ``transfers'', ``passbook entries'', and ``balance inquiries'' according to customer operations. It is something.

As shown in FIG. 6, the automated teller machine of one embodiment includes an input medium, a science system, a customer input system, a banknote processing system, a coin processing system, an external storage device, an interface device, and a power supply device. , an internal operation panel (2), and a main control device (2) as components, but externally it has the same configuration as that shown in FIG. 2.

That is, in appearance, on the front side of the main body of the device, there are a CRT display unit 1, a banknote deposit/withdrawal port 2 which also serves as a statement slip discharge port, a coin deposit/withdrawal port 3, a card insertion/receipt port 4, and a passbook insertion port. It has a configuration including a receiving port 5.

Each component shown in FIG. 6 will be explained below.

When a customer inserts the input medium into the device, the first four media processing system I reads information such as the customer's account number from the input medium, or writes certain transaction information to the input medium. The system is comprised of a card processing system 11 that handles a card (magnetic card) 10 as an input medium, and a bankbook processing system 13 that handles a bankbook 12.

The card processing system 11 includes a card league writer tta that reads predetermined transaction information (account number, etc.) written on the card and writes processed transaction information, and a card league writer lla that controls the card league writer lla. The card league writer lla is provided with a card insertion receiving slot 4.

The passbook processing system 13 includes a passbook writing machine 13a that reads predetermined transaction information (account number, etc.) written in the passbook 12 and writes processed transaction information;
and a passbook control section 13b for controlling the passbook entry machine taa, and a passbook insertion receiving slot 5 is provided in the passbook recording machine taa.

The customer input system (2) allows the customer to select a transaction item and input other information necessary for the transaction. Specifically, the CRT display section l in FIG.
It has the same configuration as the CRT display main body 1a and a touch-sensitive input panel l provided on the front side of the CRT display main body 1a.
b, and has a function as a display section for displaying guidance to the customer and a function as a semi-input section for the customer to input transaction information.

The banknote processing system (2) is for performing banknote deposit/withdrawal processing, and includes a banknote deposit/withdrawal 114 having a banknote deposit/withdrawal 02;
The deposit/withdrawal control unit 15 is configured to control the deposit/withdrawal machine 14.

The coin processing system (2) is for performing coin deposit/withdrawal processing, and includes a coin deposit/withdrawal machine 17 having the coin deposit/withdrawal port 3 and a deposit/withdrawal control unit 15 for controlling the deposit/withdrawal machine 17. It is composed of.

The external storage device (2) is for storing information necessary for transaction processing, and is a floppy disk device 18a.
and a fixed disk device 18b.

The interface device VI is for connecting to an external system such as a host computer.

The main control device IX controls the operation of each of the above-mentioned components, and under the control of the main control device (1), the four functions that characterize this embodiment are performed, namely, (1) the first transaction selection; A display function, (2) a second transaction selection display function, (2) a continuous transaction storage function, and (2) a continuous processing function are obtained.

■The first transaction selection display function is for allowing the customer to select a transaction item using the customer input system (i.e., CRT display unit l) at the time of starting a transaction, and displays all transactions handled by the automated transaction device. Items are listed and displayed, and the customer is allowed to arbitrarily select one of the transaction items desired by the customer. The display screen formed on the CRT display unit l by this first transaction selection display function is the transaction selection screen 7 shown in FIG.

■The second transaction selection display function is a function that operates on the condition that one transaction item is selected by the first transaction selection display function. A guide screen 21 as shown in FIG. 7 is formed.

This guidance screen 21 displays an enumeration of transaction items 8 to 12 excluding "Balance Inquiry", an operation guidance text 22 in case the customer wishes to process multiple transactions consecutively, and a first transaction selection display. An operation guidance text 23 and a cancellation key 24 are provided when the transaction item selected in the function is desired to be processed independently.

That is, the second transaction selection display function uses the guidance screen 21 to instruct the user to select the transaction item and then insert the input medium if there is a transaction item that the user wants to process continuously. On the other hand, if only the transaction item selected by the first transaction selection function is sufficient, the input medium is instructed to be inserted as is.

By using the above-described first and second transaction selection display functions, the combination of transaction items to be continuously processed can be arbitrarily set.

Note that the above-mentioned guidance screen 21 shows a case where a card is used as an input medium for a transaction, but when a passbook is used as an input medium for a transaction, the word "card" on the screen is changed to 1. You can change it to ``passbook'' or ``card or passbook.''

■The continuous transaction storage function stores the transaction items selected by the customer using the second transaction selection display function described above.

■The continuous processing function, when processing is completed for the transaction item selected in the first transaction selection display function mentioned above,
This is a function that sequentially processes other transaction items stored in the continuous transaction storage function.

With this continuous processing function, among the customer operations required for each transaction, the same operations as those already performed when processing the previous transaction item (for example, inserting an input medium, entering a PIN number, etc.) etc.) are omitted and processing continues.

The transaction processing operation of the automated teller machine of one embodiment configured as described above will be explained based on FIG. 1.

The processing operation in Figure 1 shows the case where the customer uses a card ((a-card) as an input medium, and the steps marked with * in the diagram indicate operations by the customer. There is.

First, at the start of a transaction, the first transaction selection display function displays the transaction selection screen 7 (see FIG. 4) on the CRT display section 1 (step 201).

The customer selects a transaction item by pressing his/her finger on the position where the desired transaction item is displayed on the screen shown in FIG. 4 (step 202).

Then, the flow of processing is divided depending on the transaction item selected by pressing the button.

In FIG. 1, steps 300 to 351 indicate the processing when "Balance inquiry" is selected in step 202.
Steps 400 to 452 are performed in step 202 with "
Step 5
00~Step 552 is "deposit deposit" in step 202
This shows the processing when is selected.

In the processing after step 202, in any transaction processing, the guidance screen 21 shown in FIG.
displayed on the T display section l (steps 300, 4).
00.500).

In response to the display on the guidance screen 21, if the customer wishes to process multiple transactions consecutively, he/she selects the transaction item and then inserts the card, which is the input medium, into the card insertion slot 4, and performs individual transactions. If the transaction is desired, the card is inserted into the card insertion slot 4 without selecting the transaction item.

Regardless of whether continuous processing is to be performed or not, specific processing of the transaction selected in the first transaction selection display function is proceeded with the insertion of the card as a condition (steps 301, 401, 501). When a transaction item is selected (steps 320, 420, 520), the selected transaction item is stored by the aforementioned continuous transaction storage function (steps 321, 421, 521).

The specific processing for each transaction after the card is inserted begins with reading the information written on the card stripe (steps 302, 402, and 502), but in any transaction, the step of returning the card ( A determination step (steps 307, 410, 512) is provided before steps 308, 411 and 513) to determine whether or not there are transactions to be processed continuously.

This determination step (steps 307, 410, and 512) of whether or not there are transactions to be processed continuously is performed if the customer has selected a transaction item using the second transaction selection display function described above. Steps of determining whether all transactions to be processed have been completed (steps 350, 450, 550)
), and on the other hand, if the customer transaction item is not selected using the second transaction selection display function, the process proceeds to return the card (steps 308, 411, and 513).

If the process proceeds to return the card, in any transaction, the initial screen at the start of the transaction goes through certain processes such as receiving and collecting the card (steps 309 and 412; 514) as in the conventional case. The process returns to step 201.

In the determination step (steps 350, 450, 550) of determining whether all transactions to be continuously processed have been completed, if it is determined that all transactions have been completed, processing is performed for card return processing. However, if all transactions have not been completed, the process moves to continuous processing of remaining transactions.

Specifically, the operation of continuous processing will be explained.

For example, if a customer selects "Balance Inquiry J" in the first transaction selection display function, selects "Withdrawal" and "Deposit" in the second transaction selection display function, and inserts a card, First, "Balance Inquiry" is processed.

Then, when the process proceeds to step 350 through steps 300 to 307, it is determined whether there are any transactions left to be processed continuously.

In this example, the process goes through the transition step 351 for continuous transactions, and then moves to the next transaction, ``withdrawal'' processing.

This "withdrawal" processing performed as a series of transactions is different from the case where "withdrawal" processing is performed individually.
The process starts with "Guidance for inputting amount of money" (step 405), which is an intermediate step in a series of processes for .

This is a continuous process in which the customer's operations required for a transaction that are the same as those already performed when processing the previous transaction item ("balance processing") are omitted and the process continues. This continuous processing function avoids duplication of operations such as "inserting a card" and "entering a PIN number."

Then, in the transaction processing for this "withdrawal", when the processing from inputting the amount to counting the cash to be paid (processing from step 406 to step 409) is completed, a step of determining whether or not there are transactions to be processed continuously is performed. Proceed to 410.

In the case of single processing, the process proceeds from step 410 to step 411 of returning the card, but in this case, since it is a continuous transaction, the process proceeds to step 450 of determining whether all transactions to be processed continuously have been completed. Since "deposit deposit" remains as a transaction to be processed continuously, cash and statement slips are not received (steps 451 and 452).
After that, the process returns to transition step 351 for continuous transactions.

Then, through transition step 351, the process moves to the next transaction, ``deposit''.

This "deposit deposit" process performed as a continuous transaction is different from the case where the "deposit deposit" process is performed alone, and the above-mentioned continuous processing function allows the "banknote insertion guidance" (step 503), which is an intermediate step, to be performed as a continuous transaction. , to avoid duplication of “insert card” operations.

Then, in the transaction processing for this "deposit", after the processing from inserting banknotes to printing the balance and statement slip (processing from step 504 to step 511), it is determined whether or not there are consecutive transactions to be processed. Proceed to decision step 512.

In the case of single processing, the process proceeds from step 512 to step 513 of returning the card, but in this case, since it is a continuous transaction, the process proceeds to step 550 of determining whether all transactions to be processed continuously have been completed. It will be done.

When proceeding to this judgment step 550, if there are still transactions to be processed continuously, the statement slip is received (steps 551, 552) and then the process returns to the transition step 351 for continuous transactions. In this case, all transactions that should be processed sequentially are completed, so the process proceeds to the card return process (steps 513 and 514), the statement slip is received (steps 515 and 516), and the transaction is returned at the start of the transaction. The initial screen of step 202. Return to

In addition, in the above-mentioned example of consecutive transactions, the case where "Balance Inquiry" was selected in the first transaction selection display function was shown, but the transaction item selected in the first transaction selection display function is You can arbitrarily choose from all the transaction items we handle. Therefore, it is also possible to perform consecutive transactions other than "balance inquiry".

As is clear from the above explanation, in the automatic transaction device of this embodiment, when the same customer wants to process multiple transactions in succession, the combinations of transaction items to be processed in succession are limited to a certain combination. It is also possible to select balance inquiry when selecting the first transaction item.

During continuous processing, the transaction items to be processed are already stored in the continuous transaction storage function, so there is no need for the customer to select the transaction item again. There is no need to repeat tasks such as entering numbers and accepting and accepting cards for each transaction item.

Therefore, when processing a plurality of transaction items in succession, it is possible to prevent an increase in the number of operations performed by the customer, thereby reducing the burden on the customer and shortening the processing time.

In addition, in the automatic transaction device of this embodiment, when processing one transaction item independently, it is sufficient to simply insert the card without selecting the transaction item in the second transaction selection display function, and to process one transaction item independently. No special keystrokes are required to indicate what to do.

Therefore, even when a single transaction is to be processed, for example, when the transaction to be processed is only a "balance inquiry", there is no inconvenience such as an increase in the number of operations performed by the customer.

[Effects of the Invention 1] As is clear from the above explanation, the automatic transaction device according to the present invention has a first transaction selection display function and a second transaction selection display function. After selecting a transaction item using the transaction selection display function, and then inserting an input medium into the device after selecting a transaction item using the second transaction selection display function, the first transaction selection display function is displayed. The transaction items selected using the second transaction selection display function and the transaction items selected using the second transaction selection display function are processed successively.

Here, the first transaction selection display function can arbitrarily select one of all transaction items handled by the device, and by using the first and second transaction selection display functions, Any combination of transaction items to be processed continuously can be set.

In other words, when the same customer wants to process multiple transactions in succession, the combination of transaction items to be processed consecutively is not limited to a certain combination, and balance inquiry can be selected when selecting the first transaction item. is also possible.

In the case of continuous processing, since the transaction items to be processed are already stored by the continuous transaction storage function, there is no need for the customer to select the transaction item again. In addition, the continuous processing function skips operations that are the same as those already performed by the customer when processing a previous transaction item, allowing the process to proceed without inserting a card, entering a PIN, or receiving a card. It is no longer necessary to repeat these operations for each transaction item.

Therefore, when processing a plurality of transaction items in succession, it is possible to prevent an increase in the number of operations performed by the customer, thereby reducing the burden on the customer and shortening the processing time.

Further, in the automatic transaction device according to the present invention, when processing one transaction item alone, it is sufficient to simply insert the card without selecting the transaction item in the second transaction selection display function. , no special key operation is required to indicate that it is to be performed independently.

Therefore, even when a single transaction is to be processed, for example, when the transaction to be processed is only a "balance inquiry", the inconvenience of an increase in the number of operations performed by the customer does not occur.
