Circuitry acquires, when predetermined money handling is executed, stored money information including specific information of money stored in a storage before execution of the money handling and money transfer information including specific information of money transferred in execution of the money handling, determines, based on the stored money information and the money transfer information, a presence or absence of an occurrence of an abnormality related to money in the money handling apparatus and generates, in a case that it is determined that there is the presence of the occurrence of the abnormality, fraud data related to the occurrence of the abnormality.

A cassette for receiving and dispensing bills is disclosed. The cassette includes a sensor structured to detect a location of the cassette, and memory having stored thereon instructions that, when executed by one or more processors, cause the one or more processors to transmit the location of the cassette to a remote computing device, determine that the location of the cassette has changed, and generate an indication that the location of the cassette has changed.

A banknote deposit machine is able to receive banknotes, preferably so as to make a payment, wherein the banknote machine is permanently connected via a data link to a (cloud) storage system, or is designed to establish a temporary data link with the (cloud) storage system. Banknote data, such as image data or serial number data, etc., specifically of banknotes which are considered stolen or which were handed over as a result of a crime, for example as a ransom, are stored in the (cloud) storage system. Whenever the banknote deposit machine receives a banknote whose identification appears suspicious, for example because the banknote has a serial number that is stored in the (cloud) storage system, feedback is sent to the operator of the banknote machine and/or the payment transaction is terminated and/or an appropriate institution or authority, for example the police or a security service, is automatically informed.

An automated tracking system for a pharmacy that tracks unique identifiers (“UI”) with a stock supply of an item or items within a supply container and that provides a security system for determining a discrepancy associated with the stock supply. The UI information automatically travels with the stock supply until it is dispensed to a customer or patient, thereby allowing the system to monitor and track supply for replenishment of the supply or improper or potentially fraudulent transactions. If desired, the improved security allows supply containers and individual supplies within those containers to be stored in the same storage area thereby maximizing available storage space while still improving dispensing and filling accuracy and minimizing loss.

A method is provided for controlling a system or a device for recognizing, checking, counting, accounting and sorting objects of value, which can be automatically adapted to changing delivery and demand conditions. A control controls the transport paths and processing steps within the device with the aid of conveyor plants and corresponding diverters and optimizes them in such a way that the objects of value are transported in a targeted fashion to the processing stages which are necessary for the processing of the objects of value. The control takes into account information about the components of the device as well as the inbound-delivered objects of value and the objects of value to be delivered outbound in order to ensure optimal processing of the objects of value or to deliver ordered packs of objects of value outbound as quickly as possible.

Provided is a money processing system realizing easy movement of money between a plurality of money handling apparatuses. A money processing system including a plurality of money handling apparatuses further includes a management apparatus configured to detect a money handling apparatus that requires movement of money, and select, from among the plurality of money handling apparatuses, one or a plurality of money handling apparatuses to move the money between the detected money handling apparatus and the selected one or the plurality of handling apparatuses.

A control unit transmits an initial value of a position ID to a cassette control unit at a top in a daisy chain by a serial line. Having received the position ID from the control unit or the cassette control unit of a previous stage in the daisy chain, the cassette control unit recognizes it as a position ID of its own cassette. Where there is a following cassette control unit in the daisy chain, the cassette control unit calculates a position ID of the following cassette control unit to transmit to the following cassette control unit.
