No concept of a cheque
Cash-flow products are built on invoices and bank movements. Post-dated cheques, endorsement, bounced cheques and drawer risk aren’t in the model - the most critical part of the portfolio sits outside the screen.
CashEye/Cheques & Notes
A cheque isn’t a list.
It’s a cash event.
Listing a cheque is one thing; seeing it in your cash flow is another. International tools don’t model cheques at all, and most local software keeps them in a separate list. CashEye treats every cheque as part of your portfolio, calendar, forecast and risk.
Where the difference is
The same cheque,
treated three ways.
A cheque is a list
Entry, due-date tracking and endorsement are there. But the list stands alone: a maturing cheque doesn’t feed the forecast, delays don’t merge with customer risk, and alerts don’t lead to action.
A cheque is a cash event
Every cheque is written to the portfolio, calendar, cash flow and forecast at once. As the due date nears, alerts and tasks appear on their own; if it bounces, the impact shows on the horizon immediately.
Lifecycle
From entry to close,
every state on record.
Every state change is written to the audit trail with who made it, when, and which value it changed from and to.
1
Entry
Bank, branch, number, series, account, place of issue, drawer, payee, due date.
2
Portfolio
Received and issued cheques are tracked in separate segments.
3
Movement
Endorsement, collateral, sending for collection; each step updates the account and the plan.
4
Due date
An approaching due date becomes an alert and a single task.
5
Outcome
Collected, bounced or returned; risk and horizon update together.
Cheque scanning
You don’t have to key in
thirty cheques by hand.
Read a cheque from your camera or a file and let the fields land in an editable form. Image processing and text recognition run entirely in your browser, on your own device.
- JPG, PNG and iPhone HEIC; camera or file
- Turkish bank dictionary, date and amount normalisation
- Per-field confidence: 90+ reliable, 70-89 check, below 70 verify
- Duplicate check on cheque number, bank, amount, due date and drawer
Scanning stepsFully in the browser
- Image captured
- Quality measured: brightness, contrast, sharpness
- Document found, perspective corrected
- Text read: Turkish and English
- Fields parsed and scored
- Duplicate cheque check completed
- Waiting for your approval to save
No step touches a server. The only thing saved is the fields you approve.
Setting expectations
What scanning does,
and what it doesn’t.
In a finance product, an overpromise means a wrong record. So we state the limits up front.
Printed and semi-structured cheques
With printed fields, a flat surface and good light, amount, due date and cheque number are read with high confidence.
Handwriting and difficult images
Handwriting isn’t read reliably; the system flags it as low confidence and asks you to verify. Glare, folds, steep angles, blur and low light all reduce accuracy.
A one-time download on first use: the image processing and text recognition components download to your device once (roughly 35-40 MB, depending on the device). Later scans run from the browser cache. In return, your cheque image never goes over the network - a deliberate trade-off.
Record scope
The fields real
operations need.
A cheque record with missing fields means phone calls later. The form is complete from the start.

Does our cheque photo really never reach a server?
It doesn’t. Decoding, correction and text recognition run entirely in your browser. The only thing saved is the cheque fields you approve; the image, raw text and confidence data are not stored.
Can we scan from a phone?
Yes - straight from the camera or by picking a file from the gallery. iPhone HEIC photos are supported too. Because conversion happens in device memory, shooting in JPG works more smoothly on older phones.
What if the scan reads something wrong?
Every field carries a 0-100 confidence score and low scores are flagged. Amount, due date, drawer and cheque number are never saved without your approval, so a bad read can’t slip into the record.
Are promissory notes supported?
Yes. Notes follow the same portfolio, calendar and lifecycle logic. On handwriting-heavy notes, scanning shows low confidence and asks you to verify.
How do maturing cheques enter the forecast?
Every cheque creates a cash-flow item on its due date and enters the forecast with a confidence weight. Confirmed and probable collections are never treated the same.
