- Positive-pay teams and banking software operators
- Worth noticing
- Bulk check-image uploads can be backed out, and the system documents an adapter pattern for adding payment networks.
Field notes
The documented operations extend beyond item matching: the page lists stop payments, customer billing statements, fee schedules, access-control groups, and exports for access recertification. Check-image uploads can use a chosen OCR engine, and bulk uploads can be backed out. For deployment, the quickstart describes a one-click local setup, while the page also lists Docker and SQLite, PostgreSQL, or MSSQL options.
