Abstract:

A method, a framework, a computer program product and a system for conducting cash deposit/issuance transactions in which the actual cash deposit/issuance occurs at a cash issuing/accepting system, i.e., cash handling station that is separate from the transaction processing point. This approach addresses both the issuance of cash to customers and the receipt of cash from customers. The approach is generic in the sense that any Microsoft Windows based application or Microsoft Windows based Terminal Emulator may act as the source of information relating to cash to be issued to a customer/user or serve as the target for the automatic entry of information relating to cash accepted at a remote or central point by a customer/user. The approach employs a remote cash management software module with OCR and Keyboard emulation components which co-resides with the transaction processing application in one or more Microsoft Windows based computers which are networked to one or more cash issuing/accepting systems running separate cash issuance/acceptance software modules.
