A device for handling notes of value comprises a sensor unit for detecting at least one feature of a least one note of value to be dispensed. A control unit distinguishes depending on the feature detected by the sensor unit whether the at least one note of value is a first note of value that is approved for withdrawal or a second note of value that is not approved for withdrawal and activates a switch unit such that the at least one note of value is fed to an intermediate storage when it is a second note of value. The intermediate storage comprises a transport unit which is drivable in a first direction for feeding the second note of value and which is drivable into a second direction such that the second note of value can be conveyed out of the intermediate storage.

A medium processing device includes: a first unit; and a plurality of second units connected to the first unit. Each of the plurality of second units includes: a conveying mechanism that conveys a medium; and a medium detection portion that detects the medium being conveyed by the conveying mechanism and transmits a signal indicating detection of the medium to the first unit. The first unit determines connection order of the plurality of second units with respect to the first unit, based on the signal transmitted from each medium detection portion of the plurality of second units.
