Veracious Pre-Truncation – Cheque Automation Platform ​

The Veracious Pre-Truncation Cheque Automation Platform is designed for banks in transition—those moving from traditional paper-based cheque processing to digital cheque truncation systems (CTS). In this pre-truncation phase, physical cheques are still collected and processed manually, but the system automates key steps to enhance speed, accuracy, and readiness for full truncation. 

This platform acts as a bridge between manual cheque handling and a fully digital CTS environment, helping banks to digitize operations progressively without major disruptions to legacy systems. 

The Veracious Pre-Truncation Platform enables gradual digital transformation in cheque processing, providing banks with a smart, secure, and automated foundation while retaining compatibility with legacy systems and manual cheque handling procedures.

Validation & Reconciliation

Validates cheque details (account number, amount, signature) and ensures reconciliation with core banking data.

Pre-Truncation Workflow Automation

Automates steps like image storage, validation queue management, and audit logging before submission to CTS.
