Abstract:
1. A method for coordinating digital storage of captured paper transaction data based on an original paper transaction, the captured paper transaction data including at least a digital image of the original paper transaction, the method comprising the steps of: receiving the captured paper transaction data from a network; storing the captured paper transaction data in a first storage, the first storage suitable for facilitating the transfer of the captured paper transaction data from the network to a second storage; determining representative information of the captured paper transaction data including a storage status indicator for indicating if the captured paper transaction data is stored in the second storage; storing the storage status indicator in a data structure configured for access by a transaction computer with a processor and a memory; transferring the captured paper transaction data from the first storage for subsequent storage in the second storage, the second storage configured for accommodating requests for access to a selected storage record by the transaction processor, the storage record for storing the captured paper transaction data in the second storage; updating the storage status indicator in the data structure to reflect the storage status of the captured paper transaction data if stored in the selected storage record of the second storage; and including in the representative information a priority indicator for the captured paper transaction data and storing the priority indicator in the data structure configured for access by the transaction processor, the priority indicator representing a receipt time of the captured paper transaction data by the first storage, eligibility of each of the captured paper transaction data for a settlement process being based on the respective receipt time being less than a processing time threshold.
