Latest Patents
Among his latest patents, one is titled "Identifying Duplicate Printed Paper Cash Letters." This invention involves a printed cash letter that includes a machine-readable identifier, such as a barcode, which identifies the cash letter. Upon printing, information from the identifier is read and stored in a first record. To determine whether the cash letter is a duplicate, a check presentment module compares information from the identifier with information in the first record. If the information identifying the cash letter already exists in the first record, the cash letter is deemed a duplicate. Additionally, to verify cash letter printing, information identifying multiple cash letters to be printed is stored in a second record. Upon printing a portion of the cash letters, information read from identifiers on the printed cash letters is compared with information in the second record. If the second record includes information regarding a cash letter not identified in the information scanned from the barcodes, then the check presentment module identifies the cash letter as having not been printed.
Another significant patent is "Electronic Image Cash Letter Validation." This invention focuses on validating image cash letter (ICL) files using appropriate validation standards for each ICL file. It allows successfully validated elements of an ICL file containing one or more unsuccessfully validated elements to be processed for payment and/or presentment. A processing entity can receive an ICL file with multiple ICLs that each includes multiple bundles of electronic check items from a customer. The processing entity can validate the ICL file using multiple validation rules selected based on the file type of the ICL file, data content of the ICL file, and/or the identity of a bank associated with the ICL file. The processing entity can transmit a report of the validation results to the customer and select certain successfully validated elements of the ICL file for check presentment and/or payment processing.
