The present invention provides apparatus and methodology for use of an automatic item-driven system for deposit and pick-up in a job-driven environment including access, instructions, item tracking, storage, billing, payment and delivery. The invention is also directed to an automatic deposit machine having logic which is item driven in a job-driven environment wherein automatic systems provide interface between job-driven services and user, as well as an operator's use of the automatic item-driven system to interface between the user either on site or remote locations. A continuous flow automatic deposit machine system provides for customer interface with the system, operator interface with the system and return of finished goods or job-related items to the customer; however, the flow provides various stops in the item, job-related environment due to insufficient information or inappropriate processing demands.
