Check Image Export™ (CIE)

Carreker's Check Image Export (CIE) provides banks the ability to export check images from the Carreker High Performance Transaction System (HPTS) to other systems and applications requiring the images and index data.

SUMMARY

The Carreker Check Image Export (CIE) product supports the export of images and index data from the Carreker High Performance Transaction System (HPTS) Image Delivery System (IDS) to other systems and applications requiring them.

The Image Delivery System (IDS) gives banks and other financial institutions the ability to deliver images of processed documents to their customers using the following types of media:

• CD-ROMs – through the Extended Data Conversion Interface (XDCI)
• On-line access – through High-Speed Image Browse (HSIB)
• Common Import Format File (CIFF) Data Set
  

CIE may also be used in a single enterprise to move the same data between multiple HPTS/ALS CIMS systems when used with the Carreker Check Image Import product.

Check Image Export runs on a MVS platform as a batch job, and can be run in multiple copies at the same time in a single system. This ability to run multiple concurrent jobs can give banks the power they it needs to process additional volume without acquiring additional software.

FUNCTION

Each type of media has a level of index data, for example, Magnetic Ink Character Recognition (MICR) data and bank application data, which is associated with each image provided. Check Image Export allows images to be captured on High Performance Transaction System capture systems and then externalized, with their associated index data, to systems and applications that require the index and image data. Check Image Export allows banks more flexible hardware configurations regarding image capture and image application processing.

PROCESS

The customer is responsible for creating the input data sets from available image data and index data and delivering it to the system where Check Image Export runs.

The processing phases of the Check Image Export system consist of :

• Initialization
• Processing the run-level options
• Validating the input data sets
• Processing the input data sets
• Retrieving images from a CIMS target repository
• Making index data, defined and provided by the user, available to a user exit for formatting
• Creating the image key
• Writing the output record(s) to the CIFF data set, defined by the CIIDATAX DD statement
• Retrieving images from one or more CIMS source repositories, and creating a common import format file (CIFF) as its output

FEATURES

Financial institutions can effectively use Check Image Export:

• To export images and index data from one or more High Performance Transaction System, Application Library Services, or CIMS. The image data and index data from the institution's capture systems is input to the CIFF data set creation process performed by these institutions.
• To exchange index and image data bank-to-bank.
• To transfer intra-enterprise images among capture centers.
• To move intra-enterprise images among CIMS environments.
• To set up an image capture service bureau using the High Performance Transaction System to capture, verify image quality, correct unusable images, and deliver the captured data (in CIFF format) with index data.
