The invention provides a system and method for identifying text in a word set. The method may include retrieving a target term set including a plurality of target terms; retrieving the word set including a plurality of text words; normalizing target terms in the target term set to generate normalized terms; normalizing text words in the word set to generate normalized words; comparing the normalized terms with the normalized words to determine (1) a first match between a first normalized term and a first normalized word; and (2) a second match between a second normalized term and a second normalized word. The method may further include determining a distance between a text word position of the first normalized word and a text word position of the second normalized word to determine if any relative positions satisfy threshold criteria, and identifying a first text word position and a second text word position as constituting possible identified text once a relative position of the text word position of the first normalized word and a text word position of the second normalized word satisfies the threshold criteria.

Methods and apparatus for processing cash advance requests are described. In one embodiment, the system includes a data repository, and a process management and workflow system coupled to the data repository. The process management and workflow system is configured to record a cash advance request, evaluate current collateral information, and evaluate current credit status.

Methods and apparatus for submitting reports to an automated lending system are described. At a lowest level interface, a user manually submits information via a browser, and at a highest level interface, information is submitted via a print driver. Although the broadest spectrum of client base is addressed by having the loosest coupling to the accounting system, i.e., the lowest level interface, the loosest coupling requires the most user interaction. As the interface level increases, the accounting system has a tighter coupling with the system, which provides increased functionality at the expense of restricting the variety of client types that may be supported (e.g., platform and operating system specific).

Methods and Apparatus for monitoring collateral risk are described. In one embodiment, the method includes monitoring, for example, accounts receivable, accounts payable, inventory, trading partners, chart of accounts, invoices, and/or payments of a client using a process management and workflow system coupled to a data repository. Specifically, and in an exemplary embodiment, the method includes receiving financial information, extracting data from the financial information, evaluating current collateral information based on the data, and evaluating current credit status.

Methods and apparatus for collateral risk monitoring

Methods and apparatus for monitoring, for example, accounts receivable, accounts payable, inventory, trading partners, chart of accounts, invoices, and/or payments, using a process management and workflow system coupled to a data repository are described. In one embodiment, the process management and workflow system is configured to be coupled to an accounting system by a communications link, and communicates with the accounting system via the communication link, authenticates the validity of the accounting system, receives financial information from the accounting system, extracts data from the financial information, and loads the extracted data into said data repository.

A virtual printer for transmitting information from one application to another application. In one embodiment, the virtual printer includes a print driver for capturing information, and a communication system for communicating the captured information to a remote system.

Methods and apparatus for network-enabled virtual printing

Systems and processes that automate receiving of unstructured information contained in electronic documents, detecting the document type, determining the corresponding document format, extracting structured information from the source document, and populating an information store with the extracted information for analysis purpose, are described. Generally, the electronic documents are pre-characterized and the extraction and mapping/translation details are developed as scripts on a per document type basis. These extraction and mapping/translation scripts are then automatically selected and used to automatically drive the subsequent information extraction processes.
