  • 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.
