Enterprise Wide Check Capture From A Single Foundational Software Engine

1 . A system comprising:

at least one processor; and

a memory coupled to the at least one processor,

wherein the memory stores:

a database including a set of previous transactions and a set of business rules; and

instructions that, upon execution, cause the at least one processor to:

receive a check image from a remote device;

identify check information of the check image;

extract the check information from the check image;

apply the set of business rules to the check information based on the remote device;

validate the check information by:

comparing the check information to the set of previous transactions;

in response to the comparison identifying a duplicate transaction, determining the check image is fraudulent; and

in response to determining the check image is fraudulent, flagging the check image; and

transmit the check image and check information to the database for storage.

2 . The system of claim 1 wherein the check information includes at least one of: (i) a date, (ii) a signature, (iii) an amount, (iv) a payee, (v) a payor, and (vi) a magnetic ink character recognition line.

3 . The system of claim 1 wherein applying the set of business rules to the check information based on the remote device includes:

determining a type of the remote device; and

identifying a subset of business rules of the set of business rules associated with the type of the remote device.

4 . The system of claim 1 wherein the set of previous transactions includes check information for each performed interaction.

5 . The system of claim 1 wherein flagging the check image includes:

generating and transmitting an alert to a second remote device associated with an entity.

6 . The system of claim 1 wherein the check image is received from at least one of (i) an automated teller machine, (ii) a mobile device, and (iii) a teller machine.

7 . The system of claim 1 wherein comparing the check information to the set of previous transactions includes comparing the extracted check information to stored check information of each transaction of the set of previous transactions.

8 . The system of claim 7 wherein identifying the duplicate transaction includes matching at least one parameter of the extracted check information to at least one parameter of the stored check information of each transaction of the set of previous transactions.

9 . The system of claim 1 wherein the instructions, upon execution, cause the processor to:

accept the received check image as valid in response to the comparison not indicating a fraudulent transaction.

10 . The system of claim 1 wherein each transaction of the set of previous transactions stores check information including at least one of: (i) a date, (ii) a signature, (iii) an amount, (iv) a payee, (v) a payor, and (vi) a magnetic ink character recognition line.

11 . A method comprising:

receiving a check image from a remote device;

identifying check information of the check image;

extracting the check information from the check image;

applying a set of business rules to the check information based on the remote device, wherein a database stores a set of previous transactions and the set of business rules;

validating the check information by comparing the check information to the set of previous transactions;

in response to the comparison identifying a duplicate transaction, determining the check image is fraudulent;

in response to determining the check image is fraudulent, flagging the check image; and

transmitting the check image and check information to the database for storage.

12 . The method of claim 11 wherein the check information includes at least one of: (i) a date, (ii) a signature, (iii) an amount, (iv) a payee, (v) a payor, and (vi) a magnetic ink character recognition line.

13 . The method of claim 11 wherein applying the set of business rules to the check information based on the remote device includes:

determining a type of the remote device; and

identifying a subset of business rules of the set of business rules associated with the type of the remote device.

14 . The method of claim 11 wherein the set of previous transactions includes check information for each performed interaction.

15 . The method of claim 11 wherein flagging the check image includes:

generating and transmitting an alert to a second remote device associated with an entity.

16 . The method of claim 11 wherein the check image is received from at least one of (i) an automated teller machine, (ii) a mobile device, and (iii) a teller machine.

17 . The method of claim 11 wherein comparing the check information to the set of previous transactions includes comparing the extracted check information to stored check information of each transaction of the set of previous transactions.

18 . The method of claim 17 wherein identifying the duplicate transaction includes matching at least one parameter of the extracted check information to at least one parameter of the stored check information of each transaction of the set of previous transactions.

19 . The method of claim 11 further comprising:

accepting the received check image as valid in response to the comparison not indicating a fraudulent transaction.

20 . A non-transitory computer-readable medium storing processor-executable instructions, the instructions comprising:

receiving, from a remote device, a check image;

identifying and extracting, using an interactive capture module, check information;

applying, using the interactive capture module, a set of business rules to the check information based on the remote device;

validating, using the interactive capture module, the check information by accessing a database, wherein the validating includes:

comparing the check information to a set of previous transactions included in the database;

determining the check image is fraudulent in response to the comparison identifying a duplicate transaction included in the database; and

flagging the check image in response to determining the check image is fraudulent; and

transmitting the check image and check information to the database for storage.
