An offending item detection system is provided for analyzing and processing documents received at one or more capture sites. A physical document may be electronically captured at a capture site and subsequently transmitted to a regional or central processing system. The processing system may then analyze the captured documents to identify and flag suspected offending items such as duplicates. Suspected offending items may be removed from a processing stream and replaced by a substitute transaction to keep the financial system in balance and to reduce potential for processing backlog. In the meantime, the suspected offending item may be analyzed. If the item is a false positive, the substitute transaction may be canceled and the financial document reinserted into the processing stream. If the suspected item is a true offending item, the substitute transaction may be replaced by or converted into another transaction funded by a general suspense account.

A digital document image archive and distribution system includes an archive system and a distributed digital document image retrieval system. The system has communication nodes located at an image capture site and at one or more remote archive retrieval sites, these sites forming a communications network operating as a chained client/server network composed of workstation components and a capture site host computer component. An originating remote workstation retrieves a digital document image from the image capture site by creating a transaction file that identifies a digital document image to be retrieved. This transaction file is sent to a remote server workstation whereat a plurality of transaction files are batched by priority. The batched transaction files are transmitted to the capture site workstation whereat the host component retrieves a group of digital document images from archive storage, including the digital document image that is identified by the transaction file. The host then sends the group of digital document images to a capture site server workstation, which workstation then sends the group of digital document images from the capture site server workstation to the remote server workstation, whereupon the group of digital document images is sent from the remote server workstation to the originating remote workstation. A visual display is then used to image process the group of digital document images at the originating remote workstation.
