What is Remote Business Pro?

Items detected as potential duplicates are flagged with an on-screen alert and require the Capture User to review the item and make a decision to either delete it, or elect to override the duplicate alert and send the item on deposit. *Duplicate cheques can be recalled up to 180 days after deposit.
The physical cheques should be stored in a secure location until they are destroyed. In the majority of cases, these items will not need to be accessed once the item has cleared and can be destroyed once your required retention period has passed. The recommended retention period is 90 days as that is the time-frame where images can be returned for poor image quality. Imaged cheques must be destroyed no later than 120 days after they are scanned.
Cheques of the following currencies are accepted:
- Canadian dollar items: Canadian dollar cheques, drafts, money orders
- US dollar items: US dollar cheques, drafts, or money orders drawn on a financial institution domiciled in Canada or the United States
There are 3 different roles available and each role has different responsibilities and authorizations from completing deposits, to pulling reports, to authorizing deposits. These roles are Capture User, Capture Analyst, and Capture Supervisor.

Dependent on your business’ cheque volumes and if/when funds are needed in your account, it is recommended that cheques are scanned several times throughout the day to prevent a backlog of deposits. Each deposit will show up separately in your bank account. Please note that each time you complete a deposit it will count as 1 deposit to your account, and regular service fees apply. If you are unsure of fees please contact your Business Advisor.
For businesses with significant cheque volume, we recommend each deposit contain no more than 100 items to more readily facilitate error correction and balancing of the deposit.
Deposits over $99,999,999.99 will be rejected by the system.
