Abstract
Financial documents, such as checks and deposit slips, are processed by capturing a video image of each document and sorting each document into a predetermined rehandle pocket during a prime pass, prior to proof of deposit processing. Particular one of the documents are selected for priority processing. Selected data is read from the captured images of the selected documents and any errors are corrected to create verified data, including balanced deposit information. The selected documents are then encoded with machine readable data indicative of the balanced deposit information and are further sorted into predetermined kill pockets during a rehandle pass.
