The VisionIP: Check 21 module extends conventional item processing to handle all
electronic and distributed item processing needs. This includes receiving remote
deposit files, electronic image based in-clearings (ICL), Image Quality Assurance
and Usability, Substitute Check and IRD creation, and image exchange with several
exchanges including FED and Endpoint Exchange.
VisionIP: Check 21, when combined with VisionIP: Traditional Image, provides financial
institutions with an "end-to-end" image-enabled, electronic payments environment.
Image Exchange
Check image exchange is quickly emerging as the primary method for clearing and
settling check payments in a post-Check 21 world. The true benefits of check image
exchange are realized when the thousands of "endpoints" - financial institutions
across the country maintaining checking accounts - are able to send and receive
images for clearing and settlement. Interoperability between image exchange networks
will become an increasingly important factor in the industry's adoption of check
image exchange and continued ability to maximize the benefits of Check 21.
As nationwide adoption of check image exchange continues to grow, VisionIP: Check
21 will provide you with the platform to exchange check images through all of the
leading networks - Endpoint Exchange, SVPCo, and the Federal Reserve.A Metavante®

VisionIP: Check 21 embraces interoperability for all IP platforms, allowing for
efficient check image exchange with other financial institutions, despite any system
and/or platform processing differences.
VisionIP: Check 21 provides a "virtual capture" service, reducing the overhead of
managing thousands of new endpoint relationships. VisionIP: Check 21 can be deployed
in multi-institution or correspondent bank processing environments.
VisionIP: Check 21 automatically identifies and processes input based on source
information. Utilizing a user-customized workflow, VisionIP: Check 21 can be set-up
to automate selected edits and perform image quality assurance on incoming items.
IRD and Substitute Check
Under Check 21, banks, credit unions, and savings institutions will be able to use
digital images and electronic check information to create substitute checks. This
allows financial institutions to collect and return checks more quickly without
waiting for the original checks to be delivered to the institution's processing
operation. These substitute checks serve as the legal equivalent of the original
check and will be used in situations where a paper version of a check is required
after the original has been imaged and truncated.
VisionIP Check 21 provides Substitute Checks for forward presentment, outgoing returns,
and customer chargebacks. The solution will also print IRDs for non-truncated statements
and customer notifications.
Image Quality Assurance
VisionIP: Check 21 Image Quality Assurance (IQA) tests check images for potential
image defects and usability problems.
VisionIP: Check 21 IQA image quality and usability tests meet the 16 quality indicators
defined by the FSTC and addresses your institution's need for consistent check image
integrity and availability and improves reliability for exchange between collecting
and paying banks.
