Test results for checks

When testing the extraction results for a check and depending on the Check Locator settings, a lot of information is returned. Because of this, you can use a single Check Locator to populate several extraction fields or as a basis for further processing.

Test the Check Locator using a document in the Document Viewer. The Test Results tab displays a lot of extraction information about the test document. Click on a field in the Name column to view the results on the check. If there is a value, it is highlighted in green.

When adding fields, populate a field using the appropriate value from this list. The following table shows examples of possible field mappings:

Field value

Check Locator value

The check amount

CROSS

If the Enable advanced accuracy setting is selected, choose CAR instead.

The check number

CHECK_NUMBER

The account number

MICR_ACCOUNT_NUMBER

The check date

DATE

The payee name

PAYEE

Use the FIELD_USABILITY and IMAGE_USABILTY test results to further process your check. For example, if an endorsement signature is present and readable, perform further extraction on the endorsement. Similarly, if the check has several high IMAGE_USABILITY values, use a script to perform additional image pre-processing before processing the check again.
