Determine whether documents uploaded in Virtual Capture must complete a virus scan by the financial institution prior to being uploaded to the application. This configuration is made by setting the Document Virus Scan in Virtual Capture and API parameter to a value of Virus Scan, and defining the Document Import and Export File Locations in the System tab of the Origination page in System Management (System Management > Modules > Origination).
Reference the section below for an overview of the virus scan logic that occurs when a document is uploaded in Virtual Capture:
When a document is uploaded to the Document Upload or Stipulations panel in Virtual Capture, the system reviews the value of the Document Virus Scan in Virtual Capture and API parameter to determine if a virus scan should be performed on the document prior to uploading it to the application. If the parameter is set to None, the document is attached to the application without a virus scan. The Virus Scan Status is set to "Exempt from Virus Scan" within the Document Upload or Stipulations panel, as well as the Application Documents window in the Temenos Infinity application. If the parameter is set to Virus Scan, the document is placed in the Document Import File Location defined by the institution to await the virus scan. The Virus Scan Status is set to "Pending Virus Scan" in the Document Upload or Stipulations panel in Virtual Capture, as well as the Application Documents window in the Temenos Infinity application.
Once in the Document Import File Location, the institution can perform a virus scan on the document(s) using their virus scan software.
An executable automatically runs to review the Document Import and Export File Location to check for scanned documents, update the Virus Scan Status in both Virtual Capture and Temenos Infinity, and upload the documents that complete the virus scan successfully. By default, the Document Import and Export File Locations are scanned at one minute intervals to review which documents have been moved to the Export File Location, or have remained in the Import File Location.
When a document is moved to the Document Export File Location, the Virus Scan Status is set to "Successful Virus Scan," and the document is uploaded to the application.
The document can then be accessed from the Document Upload or Stipulations panel in Virtual Capture, as well as within the Application Documents window in the the Temenos Infinity application.
If a document remains in the Document Import File Location without moving to the Document Export File Location, the Virus Scan Status is set to "Failed Virus Scan," and the document is not uploaded to the application. A record of the attachment continues to appears in the application, but the document is not able to be accessed in Temenos Infinity, or Virtual Capture.
Event Processing for Failed DocumentsIf desired, institutions can configure an Event/Action pair in System Management > Origination > Event Processing to include the Virus Scan Failed event, which executes each time the Virus Scan Status field is set to "Failed Virus Scan" for a document. This event can be paired with an action, such as Execute Rules, to send a notification to a specific group or user when the Virus Scan Status for a document is set to Failed, and alert that the document could not be uploaded to the application. |

Data collected outside of the system, such as information from an institution's website, or a promotional email, may pass through to Virtual Capture applications using host value rules.
If desired, institutions can use the following rule configurations to author a Default Values rule in System Management > Origination > Rules Management, which populates outside data in a Virtual Capture application:
Once the Default Values rule is authored, and saved to the rule application, the rule must be assigned to the loan application type(s) used to create Virtual Capture products, or the account application type(s) assigned to the desired Virtual Capture instances.

For the IT Resource at a financial institution: If desired, the following URL can be used to send a request to Virtual Capture to ensure the application is running for the institution: <Institution Site Root>/<Instance Code>/Ping. If the Virtual Capture application is running, a message of "OK" is displayed on the screen. |
Once the above configurations have been made, the virtual application process can begin.
