Stupid Banking System Requirements

The humor in this document will likely only be readily apparent to those who work in information technology or information security. Those of you who don’t are free to skip on to the next post.

SUMMARY

As a business Customer, our service allows you to make check deposits electronically without traveling to a Store or relying on a courier for delivery of your deposit. Using a PC, you scan your checks, balance the items, and electronically submit your deposit to Bank for processing. As a result, you will be able to make deposits without leaving your home or office.

HOW IT WORKS

Once your system is set up and you have totaled your deposit, you will load your checks into a scanner connected to your PC that automatically reads both sides of the check. It will also balance the deposit and electronically submit it to your Bank.
