  • Patent number: 5151948
    Abstract: The system and method of this invention provides for fast and accurate detection and correction of errors in a document processing operation in which the total of the amounts for a series of transaction documents must be balanced to match the total amount shown on an associated depositor summary document. The errors may be depositor errors or system errors. An image of the depositor summary document, e.g. adding machine tape or customer deposit slip, is displayed on a screen. The display includes images of the amount of each transaction document (check) as listed by the depositor. A second display containing coded data amounts which are associated with the individual transaction documents is also displayed on the same screen, permitting an operator to compare the transaction amount images to the corresponding coded data amounts for the transaction documents. The operator identifies a discrepancy between the first display and the second display, and takes appropriate corrective action.
