1. An apparatus for image retrieval based on transaction identification, the apparatus comprising:

  • a memory;

    a processor; and

    a module stored in the memory, executable by the processor, and configured to cause said processor to;

    capture, using an image capture device, an image of a tangible document, wherein the document is associated with a transaction ID;

    collect document information included in the document image based at least partially on processing the image of the document;

    store the document information, wherein storing the document information comprises storing a single system pointer which references both the collected document information and the captured image of the tangible document;

    receive a request for the document information, wherein the request is associated with the transaction ID, and wherein receiving the request for the document information further comprises determining a request ID to be associated with the request for the document information;

    retrieve the document information in response to the request, wherein retrieving the document information comprises referencing the system pointer, and wherein the system pointer references the document information such that the document information is retrieved without the captured image being recreated or processed each time a request for the document information is received; and

    create an activity log, wherein the activity log comprises a record of one or more request for the document information associated with the transaction ID, wherein logging the transaction ID for the one or more requests provides verification that an entity has requested and received the retrieved document information, and wherein the activity log comprises the request ID of each request for document information that is associated with the tangible document and transaction ID.
