PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To omit the service where a clerk contacts a customer by telephone by retrieving a commodity order reception file to extract the customer whose ordered commodities are delivered and dialing automatically the customer's telephone number to notify him of delivery of the commodities. SOLUTION: A POS terminal is connected to a host computer placed at a store management center, etc., via a communication circuit L1 such as a LAN, etc., and also to a public telephone network via a telephone circuit L2. A CPU 12 retrieves a photo order reception file sent from a RAM 14 based on the stored delivery date data and extracts a customer whose ordered photos are delivered. Then the telephone number data on the extracted customer are given to a circuit connection part 18, and the customer's telephone number is automatically dialed to notify him of delivery of his ordered commodities. Thus, it's not required for a clerk to contact the customer by telephone to make him fetch his ordered photos. |
