Financial document item processing system and method of operating a financial document item processing system to encode/endorse a financial document item having a radio frequency identification tag
First Claim
1. A financial document item processing system for processing a check having a radio frequency identification (RFID) tag associated therewith, the system comprising:
- a check transport path along which the check can be transported from an upstream end of the check transport path to a downstream end of the check transport path;
an RFID tag endorser disposed along the check transport path and for wirelessly transmitting check endorsement data to the RFID tag of the check transported along the check transport path from the upstream end to the downstream end; and
an RFID tag encoder for wirelessly transmitting magnetic ink character recognition (MICR) encoded data to the RFID tag of the check transported along the check transport path from the upstream end to the downstream end.

Abstract
A financial document item processing system processes checks transported from an upstream end of a check transport path to a downstream end of the check transport path. Endorsement data is transmitted to an RFID tag of a check transported along the check transport path from the upstream end to the downstream end. Alternatively, encoded data is transmitted to an RFID tag of a check transported along the check transport path from the upstream end to the downstream end. In some financial document item processing applications, both endorsement data and encoded data are transmitted to an RFID tag of a check transported along the check transport path from the upstream end to the downstream end.
