Abstract:
1. Logic for handling checks, comprising logic stored on at least one computer-processable medium and operable when executed to: access magnetic ink character recognition (MICR) data in a shared memory MICR buffer, the MICR data retrieved by a sorter from a plurality of checks; select one of a plurality of application programming interfaces (APIs) based on the sorter, each API associated with a disparate type of sorter; generate a process buffer using the selected API based on the accessed MICR data and a check processing system communicably coupled with the sorter, the check processing system at least partially incompatible with the MICR data format in the MICR buffer; communicate the generated process buffer to the check processing system; generate in real-time a plurality of feature instructions for each check based on the generated process buffer; and communicate the generated feature instructions to the sorter.
