Criminal Cases Review Commission (CCRC) examining multiple cases of former sub-postmasters affected by Capture software.
Capture was used in the early 1990s , prior to Horizon being introduced to Post Office branches from 1999 onwards.
Horizon was at the centre of the Post Office scandal and saw hundreds wrongly convicted of stealing from branches.
The CCRC said it has five cases under review in which the Capture IT system could be a factor.
