1. A computer-implemented method for assessing the quality of an electronic image, comprising the steps of:
- assigning on a computer an image quality value to the electronic image;
selecting a purpose for the electronic image from a plurality of potential purposes comprising at least one of an image cash letter, a substitute check, and an electronic cash letter, each of the potential purposes being associated with a respective one of a plurality of image quality thresholds;
identifying the respective image quality threshold associated with the selected purpose of the electronic image; and
determining whether the image quality value of the electronic image meets or exceeds the respective image quality threshold associated with the selected purpose for the electronic image,wherein the electronic image is suitable for the selected purpose if the image quality value of the electronic image meets or exceeds the respective image quality threshold.

Abstract
Assessing the quality of an electronic image comprises determining a quality rating for the electronic image, associating image quality thresholds with purposes for electronic images, selecting the purpose that corresponds to the electronic image, identifying an image quality threshold associated with the selected purpose, and determining whether the quality rating meets the image quality threshold. The electronic image is suitable for its intended purpose if its quality rating meets the threshold.
