Scan checks

Upload photos of up to 25 checks at once. Yahiv reads each one (amount, check #, date, who it's from, memo) and suggests the person — you confirm and it's recorded as a check waiting to be deposited.

Before you start

  • Your login may record gifts.
  • Automatic reading needs the AI assistant connected for your account. Without it, you type each check next to its picture.
  1. 1

    Open Scan checks

    Record → "Scan checks" (or Giving → "Scan checks" tab).

    Upload photos of the front of each check.
  2. 2

    Choose the photos

    Choose up to 25 photos (JPG / PNG, front of the check). On a phone you can take them with the camera.

    Up to 25 photos at a time.
  3. 3

    Press Upload & read

    Each check appears with its picture on the left and what was read on the right.

  4. 4

    Check each one

    Make sure the person, amount, check # and date are right. Yellow boxes mean "Couldn't read clearly — check the highlighted fields".

    Checks waiting to be confirmed are listed here.
  5. 5

    Record

    Press "Record $180.00". It's saved as a check waiting to be deposited (Giving → Deposits). Press "Skip" for a photo that isn't a check.

    Recorded checks wait under Deposits.

Tips

  • Tap a picture to open it full size.
  • A red note warns when the same photo or check # was recorded before.

If something isn't working

"Choose the check images to upload".

No photos were chosen.

"… file(s) skipped — only JPG, PNG or WEBP photos up to 8 MB".

Take the photo again in normal camera mode, or make it smaller.
