Save Cost by Modernizing Your Check Processing

Bluepoint introduces a state-of-the-art image enabled check processing system built for Check21. What do you get when you take the latest development in technology and bring it to check processing? Significant cost savings and outstanding service to clients.

State-of-the-Art Check Processing System

ImagePoint is built on a state-of-the-art Microsoft .NET platform using proven components to deliver maximum efficiency and performance. It is the only check processing system designed from the ground up to take advantage of the Check21 legislation. It provides a scalable, function-rich, efficient and highly cost effective way to process checks by leveraging the latest advances in technology.

Benefits of ImagePoint

Bluepoint’s revolutionary new check processing solution provides comprehensive end-to-end functionality combining the latest advances in technology with the regulatory advances promised by Check21. Some of the major benefits include:

  • Supports capture using multiple transports
  • Sophisticated Image recognition function reduces data entry significantly
  • Microsoft Smart Client interface provides instant ability for Offshore Processing
  • ImagePoint is built for Check21, hence eliminates the need for costly integration of separate applications
  • High flexibility and configurability eliminates the need for expensive customization
  • Feature-rich applications result in improved client service
  • Scalable from a very small implementation to a large multi-site enterprise implementation
  • Workflow management and high dollar identification

Comprehensive Features

ImagePoint is a comprehensive integrated capture solution which includes a complete array of check processing functionality required for any institution.

Parameter Driven

ImagePoint is completely configurable to suit the processing needs of most institutions. This includes specifying sort patterns, endpoints, users, devices, calendar, and a multitude of other parameters.

Easy Administration

ImagePoint can be managed using a sophisticated Administration tool. The system provides logging of errors and warnings and the ability to monitor tasks, applications, devices and the backing up and restoring of data.

Workflow

Bluepoint’s Workflow Manager allows operations management personnel to identify, monitor and manage the flow of work through the system. Supervisors and managers have the ability to change the workflow and priorities such as suspend, re-activate, and force complete for various functions. They can also monitor the dollar amounts (high dollar items) in the groups of work, their deadlines by endpoint, change priorities to meet deadlines, and automate sends to the appropriate endpoint if a deadline has passed, all in a multi-financial institution environment.

Integrated Capture Application

Bluepoint’s Track Capture (TC) provides a single application to perform Prime Capture, Power Encode and Reject Encode. TC works with various transports including Unisys, IBM, NCR, and BancTec. TC provides a full range of functionality including MICR/OCR reads, image capture, microfilm, flexible endorsing, and encoding.

CAR and ICA

Items can be selected for Courtesy Amount Read and Intelligent Character Recognition to significantly reduce the amount of keying required.  ImagePoint interfaces to several best-of-the-breed recognition engines to maximize the read rates.

Image Data Entry

ImagePoint has three image based applications that provide data entry completion capabilities for items that were not successful during the CAR and ICR process. Amount Entry provides a fast way to complete items that need only the amount field, while Item Correction allows complete code line correction. Bluepoint’s Item Review application manually assesses the image quality and usability of items.

Reconciliation

This sophisticated image based tool provides the ability to balance blocks of work. Recon provides balancing at required control levels, such as transaction, batch and block, and can be used for Inclearing and POD. Recon provides a “Smart Balancer” that identifies potential out-of-balance conditions and provides operator tips. It also includes a facility to create account holder, inter-institution and teller advices.

ATM Balancing

ImagePoint includes an integrated ATM balancing solution to handle ATM envelope deposits. The solution includes receiving ATM deposit files daily from the institution’s transaction system, processing and recognizing the ATM envelopes as credits, and then performing ICR on the envelopes. It is also a sophisticated application for performing deposit research, review and balancing.

Reporting and Extraction

lmagePoint includes a comprehensive reporting facility for daily operations, statistical and MIS reporting. Reports can be scheduled for auto creation, easily viewed and printed, archived, and sent to an email list. ImagePoint also includes flexible data extraction.

IP Exchange Interfaces

A seamless interface to the Image Exchange Module provides a complete Check21 solution for check processing. Incoming exchange is achieved by performing Virtual Capture into lmagePoint’s Outgoing exchange is done by creating X9.37 files for selected endpoints based on bilateral agreement.

IP Warehouse

ImagePoint’s data archival system is designed to allow full advantage of the informational needs required by the Check21 Act. IP Warehouse provides a scalable solution to retain all the item data necessary for duplicate checking, return items, data mining, and archiving processes.
