Abstract: Apparatus, methods and media for deriving a transaction record based on handwritten check content. The apparatus may include, and the methods and media may involve, a receiver device that is configured to receive a check image. The apparatus may include, and the methods and media may involve, a processor device. The processor device may be configured to define a check segment within the check image; translate content from the segment from handwriting to estimated block text; and store the block text in a transaction record in machine readable memory. The apparatus may include, and the methods and media may involve, a transmitter that is configured to transmit the block text to a financial institution product engine.

Abstract: Data associated with a payment may be perfected before additional processing. An image file is received during a first time period, and a processor determines, during the first time period, data associated with the image file. The processor automatically determines, during the first time period, one or more exceptions associated with the data by evaluating if the data meets one or more exception rules. The processor performs, during the first time period, one or more data perfection procedures triggered by the one or more exceptions to obtain perfected data. The processor sends, during the first time period, the perfected data to a posting application.

Abstract: A computer-readable media storing computer-executable instructions for using a check deposit device to process a check is provided. The method derives meta-data from the check. The check deposit device may use an image receiver device to obtain a check image from the check. The method may use the processor to define a plurality of check segments within the check image. The processor device may obtain content from each of the plurality of check segments. The processor device may be store the content of each of the check segments in a machine readable memory and may utilize a transmitter to transmit the content from the plurality of check segments to a check-clearance engine. The check deposit device may receive from the check-clearance engine, in response to the transmission of the portion of the content from the plurality of check segments, an indication of the sufficiency of funds in an account.
