Abstract:
A system for handling checks, comprising:a sorter operable to retrieve MICR data from a plurality of checks; an emulator coupled to the sorter, the emulator operable to access the MICR data and to generate a process buffer based on the MICR data; a communication engine coupled between the emulator and a check processing system, the communication engine operable to communicate between the emulator and the check processing system in real-time, the check processing system operable to receive the process buffer from the emulator through the communication engine and to generate a plurality of feature instructions for each check based on the process buffer; and the emulator further operable to communicate the feature instructions to the sorter, the sorter further operable to process the checks based on the feature instructions.
