Abstract: A managing unit correlates and manages a first captured image with an accounting device identifier of one accounting device designated so as to perform accounting processing of the registered commodity among accounting device identifiers for respectively identifying a plurality of accounting devices. The first captured image is a customer who asks a sales clerk operating a registration device to register a commodity. The specifying unit compares a second captured image of a customer who operates the accounting device to each first captured image, and specifies the first captured image, when the accounting device starts the accounting processing. The determining unit determines whether an accounting device identifer corresponding to the first captured image coincides with an accounting device identifier of the accounting device operated by the customer included in the second captured image. The control unit inhibits the accounting processing which is performed in the accounting device operated by the customer, under a condition that the determining unit determines the identifiers not to coincide.
