Abstract

An input module and a corresponding method involve feeding value documents to at least one value-document processing apparatus having a removal device for removing value documents from a first container located in a removal position and feeding the removed value documents to the value-document processing apparatus, an output device for receiving at least one container in an output position in which the container can be removed, and a conveying device for conveying the container within the input module. The input module and system have a simple and compact construction, and employ a simple procedure for feeding value documents to a value-document processing apparatus.
