A register apparatus includes a scanner, an operation panel, a status indicator, and a processor. The processor is configured to process a product code of a product for a transaction obtained through the scanner or the operation panel, to determine whether or not the product code is associated with a predetermined sales restriction and whether or not sale is allowed for the product. The processor is also configured to control the status indicator to perform a first indication when the product code is determined to be not associated with the predetermined sales restriction, a second indication when the product code is determined to be associated with the predetermined sales restriction and sales is determined to be allowed for the transaction, and a third indication when the product code is determined to be associated with the predetermined sales restriction and sales is determined to be not allowed for the transaction.
