• The 'Query View Executive Accounts' option is no longer required for Full Queries - sensitive accounts are automically filtered out if the user is not authorized to view sensitive accounts.

CheckView: Check Image Retrieval System (up to 3.0.0j)

• Every option requires login
  • Login is now required for all options, including image queries.
• All login sessions expire after one hour.
  • After an hour, users will be logged off and will have to relogin to continue working.
• Authorization required to query images.
  • The 'Query Image Database' authorization is required to query images. As with all authorizations, this authorization is added by choosing CheckView Administration -> Add/Edit Users Database from the menu.
• Single images may be printed from an individual image lookup.
  • When viewing an individual image, the 'Print Front and Back Image' link will print the front and back image to the default printer with the bank logo at the top of the page. If applicable, the image's return status will be printed at the bottom of the page.
  • The images will be printed to the printer configured at installation time as the 'teller printer'
• Single images can be converted to PDF format for printing to any convenient printer.
• Rotated views of the back image of a check can be zoomed and magnified as much as 50%
  • Once the back image is rotated by clicking the 'Rotate Back Image' link, options for Zoom and Zoom +10 20 30 40 and 50 percent are provided.
• Sensitive ('Executive') accounts can be hidden from Quick Query by Account

  • Executive accounts may be entered into a database under CheckView Administration -> Add Account to 'Exec' Database. Accounts entered in this data base will not be queryable using the 'Quick Query by Account Option', by users who do not also have the 'Query View Executive Accounts' option. Users will be required to have the 'Query View Executive Accounts' option, in addition to the usual authorizations to be able to use any of the other check image query features, including Restricted Access Processing and Edit Fed. Check Image Database. The Executive account limitation was placed on the Quick Query By Account feature only, due to the complexity of filtering accounts out of a query by date, for example, and the necessity of making all accounts avalible to users that are authorized to edit the check database.

    The message:

    User [username] requires further authorization for this option.

    will appear if a user tries to access one of their valid authorizations and they do not have the Executive account option.
