The Bulk Filing Module (BFM) increases efficiency and accuracy in handling on-us demand deposit items. The module reduces the number of fine sort passes required, automatically pulls exception items that need special attention, and reports the number of items to be sent with customer statements.

• The Cycle Sort
  • BFM sorts daily on-us demand deposit items by account statement cycles, rather than by account number.
  • Each statement cycle is assigned to a specific pocket on the document processor or proof machine, and exceptions are directed to a specific pocket for handling.
  • After sorting, the items are "bulk filed" into cycle trays.
     
• Statement Rendering
  • When statements are printed, the items within the designated cycle tray are fine sorted by account number.
     
• Reports
  • The Specifications Error Report is a daily exception report that lists any transactions posted against accounts with undefined statement cycles.
  • The Exception Report is a daily listing of all items routed to the Exception pocket.
     
• Increased Accuracy And Efficiency
  • The Bulk Filing Module eliminates the daily fine sort by account number and the manual filing of items to customer accounts.
  • Retrieval of "bulk filed" items remains simple. Items are filed by day, within cycle, and are in sequential order according to proof sequence number.
