RIDS Remote Keying

RIDS Remote Keying, an optional software module of VICOR’s Receivables Information Delivery System (RIDS) platform, allows processors to shift manual keying functions to more cost effective locations or load level peak keying volumes.

The RIDS solution has evolved to provide valuable tools that enable processors to minimize operating expenses and effectively manage workflow at multiple production sites. With Remote Keying, processors can scan a document locally and have data entered remotely – in either a domestic or offshore location – in real time. Processors can also shift work between production sites, thereby reducing site resources formerly required for periodic or temporary spikes in volume such as state or municipal tax payments.

Work is presented to remote operators based on individual account deposit deadlines. Once a remote operator completes data entry, the work continues through the RIDS workflow as if the transaction was processed in a production site. Each production site then cuts deposits and creates multi-media output regardless of where the data was entered.

A variation of Remote Keying is Web Snippet Keying, where snippets of data – such as check amounts – are keyed remotely, eliminating the need and risk of moving full check images. With Web Snippet Keying, the remote keyer needs only a PC, a browser (such as IE or Netscape), and connectivity. This module provides an operation the flexibility to locate keyers anywhere—from distant corporate offices to operators’ homes – opening the door to a significantly larger labor pool. No RIDS central server complex is required with Web Snippet Keying. Snippet Keying is ideal for entering data from highly sensitive documents since the operator never sees the full context of the document being keyed.

VICOR’s Remote Keying options address the competitive needs of today’s operational workforce and provides significant and proven advantages.

  • Improves operational efficiency
  • Shifts costly data entry tasks to lower cost alternatives
  • Provides workflow flexibility while ensuring customer deadlines are met
  • Enables automated movement of work from one site to another
  • Fosters collaboration between production sites
