A system and method for providing one or more client systems for communicating with a host system over a network. The client systems use a scanner to convert a paper form of a check, coupon, or other paper document to a digital representation and then the client systems send the digital representation over a network to the host system for storage. The host system archives the digital representation and determines the appropriate processing stream for a transaction related to the paper document (e.g. coupon, check), via a decisioning engine, based on a set of predefined stream selection rules. The host system then communicates the transaction to a back end transaction destination, according to the selected processing stream. Examples of the transaction destination can include ACH, Reproduce Paper, and Remittance. The host system can make use of a data buffer system for coordinating the storage of the digital representations in the host system as well as coordinating the respective settlement process, a distributed decisioning environment for assisting the host system in decisioning of the digital representations, and a hierarchy for coordinating the configuration of the host and client systems as well as coordinating the settlement process for the digital representations.
