  • Patent number: 8824772
    Abstract: Improved systems and methods for detecting and correcting image errors and risks in remote deposit systems during an in-line or in-process troubleshooting session are disclosed. Various embodiments include systems for displaying remote deposit session data to a support technician with links for invoking an image display or image editor user interface during a troubleshooting session. The links can be included in one or more individual remote deposit session events, records, or tasks, such as check image uploads and bi-tonalization events. The image editor can be used to manually or automatically correct any detected errors or flaws in uploaded or processed deposit document images. The corrected check images can be then be stored and used to complete or reprocess a remote deposit.

  • Publication number: 20140122332
    Abstract: Systems and methods for improved remote deposit support and troubleshooting are disclose. In remote deposit sessions, such as a remote check deposit transaction that uses images of the front and back of a check, various errors, conflicts and issues can occur with each step of the session. Embodiments of the present invention can include generating a unique identifier for a particular remote deposit session at or before a particular session or transaction begins and then create a record for each event or task of that session and associate it with the identifier. During a support or troubleshooting session, all transactions can records associated with a particular identifier can be retrieved from a data store and displayed to a user. Such a display can include a listing of various detailed specifics for each record and embedded controls to various tools for detecting, diagnosing, and correcting errors.
