Abstract
Provided is a means whereby improvement in fund efficiency of stored paper currency of a paper currency storage vault and reduction in withdrawal processing time are effected, and whereby a count value of a number of stored sheets and an actual number of sheets are matched. An accumulation order table, which stores an accumulation order of paper currency which is stored in a paper currency storage vault () and serial number information of the paper currency in accumulation sequence, is stored in a storage unit of a paper currency deposit-withdrawal mechanism (). When making a withdrawal, if the paper currency which is dispensed from the paper currency storage vault () is withdrawal anomaly paper currency which is differentiated with a differentiation unit () as a conveyance anomaly, the serial number information of the next successive paper currency of the withdrawal anomaly paper currency is detected by the differentiation unit (). Based on the detected serial number information and the accumulation order table, a corrected number of sheets, which is the number of sheets of paper currency which configures the withdrawal anomaly paper currency, is counted, the corrected number of sheets is subtracted from the current count of the stored number of sheets of the paper currency storage vault (), the current stored number of sheets is corrected, and the withdrawal anomaly paper currency of the counted corrected number of sheets is conveyed to and accumulated in a deposit-withdrawal unit ().
