I'm trying to use the Open/Closed Memberships dashboard to analyze my entire membership, by entering a date range that goes all the way back to when my CU was chartered. It doesn't appear to show all my members, though.
Dashboard lists like this are limited (by our core IBM platform) to a maximum of 9,999 records. Certain analysis features that count and display summary information are able to deal with much higher quantities of records, of course, but any program that lists records one after the other, the way these dashboards do (it's sometimes referred to as a subfile ), cannot accommodate more than 9,999 individual items in the display. That's one of the reasons we include so many filters so you More...

How can I analyze my Member Trackers without using query?
To analyze Member Trackers, simply run a report in Tool #664 Print Member Trackers . When configuring Tracker Type ( Tool #277 Configure Tracker Types ) and Memo Type ( Tool #260 Configure Memo Type Codes for Trackers ), you created specific codes that track these types of records. Tool #664 allows you to generate a report based on multiple search criteria, including Tracker Type and Memo Type, as well as date range, and Employee ID. Additional options are available to analyze Sales Trackers via More...

Where can we choose to report a savings account or checking account to the credit bureau after we write off or charge off the account and close it?
As explained in the Charge Off Savings/Checking Accounts reference booklet, your credit union has the option of sending a one-time record to the credit bureaus when savings and checking accounts are charged off and closed. This feature must be activated for your credit union. Once activated, additional fields will appear when an account is charged off (via Tool #201 Charge Off Savings/Checking ) that will give the employee the option to use the one-time reporting feature by entering the amount More...

If I activate the NSF/ANR fee disclosure on my statements, will it print for savings accounts as well?
Yes, if any non-return fees are assessed to a savings accounts and you have the Reg. DD disclosure activated for your statements. (This new feature was implemented in June 2010.) Although it is rare for a savings account ever to be charged a non-return fee, one example that might cause this would be if you had debit cards that were tied exclusively to a savings account. If the fee amounts are zero (NSF current period, NSF YTD, ANR current period, ANR YTD), then the NSF Fee Summary box will not More...

A member account has a "P" in the ACH column next to her 000 savings. When I try to view what is pending, there are no pending items. Why is the P there?
The pending transaction can be found by printing the warehoused ACH transactions (Tool # 693 Print Warehoused ACH Transactions ). In this case there was a pending withdrawal for the member's 000 account. It can be found on the PACHSU report as an invalid account. However, the program for pending transactions only uses the company ID and the Depositor Id to look up an entry in the ACHSUS and ACHDST file. So that was enough information to see the P for Pending without actually being able to More...

How do I prevent certain types of accounts from being reported to the IRS if the dividends are not reportable, such as IRA savings?
There is a Report dividends to the IRS flag on the Dividend Application configuration for savings and checking products, and also in the CD Type configuration for certificates. If this is not checked, dividends paid on those accounts will not be reported. These flags must be verified every fall prior to year-end processing, as instructed in the Year-End Processing Guide, so that IRS forms and tax reporting is done correctly at year-end.

I created a new package and saved a couple documents, before I realized a package had already been started for this loan. Is there a way to combine the packages or move the documents I saved incorrectly?
If you have two packages you want to merge, you'd have to delete one of them, and then use the add existing button in the remaining one to associate the saved documents with it. When deleting the unwanted package, the system will ask you if you want to delete the saved documents associated with it. Make sure you don't delete them! In the remaining package, you'll highlight the missing document you want to add and click the Add Existing button. This will bring up a search window. More...

Can more than 99 Savings Bonds be redeemed in the same tax period?

Enter the member's account number and SSN to proceed. The next screen will allow you to record the principal and interest paid to post the redemption.

How should I reverse a loan payment or savings deposit that was done to the wrong account?
If the transaction was performed the same day, reverse using Tool #31 Reverse Tran/Adjust Tlr Drawer (Same Day) and then rerun transaction correctly. If the transaction was performed on a previous date, reverse using Tool #354 Effective-Dated Transfers . CU*BASE will automatically adjust the dividend/interest amounts for you. If you want to be able to override the dividend/interest amounts, use Tool #353 Effective-Dated Account Adjustment instead.

I am a loan officer reviewing the application screens with a loan underwriter (at a different computer) and the loan underwriter changes are not being saved. Why is this happening?
It is possible to have two people review the same loan application screen. This is helpful if you would like for two people two review the screens together who are on different workstations. For example, you may have a loan officer and a loan underwriter review the screens together. If you review loan application screens this way, the last person to leave the screen will have their changes saved. Let's review this example: Sue Loanofficer and Mary Underwriter are reviewing a loan applic More...

How long is a credit report saved online?
If the credit report is attached to the loan, it will be retained for the life of the loan. Otherwise, the credit report detail is usually purged after 60 days, and the summary and decision is purged after 6 months. (This is configurable; if you would like a longer retention, contact Lender*VP. A small monthly charge may apply.)

How can I redeem a savings bond without cutting a misc. check? Non-members have no account in which to deposit the funds, and my auditor wants me to limit how many employees are able to cut misc. checks.
The best technique, for both members and non-members, is to use the Misc. Advances feature in Tool #1 Teller Line Posting . You'll need to configure a misc. expense/advance posting code ( Tool #534 Misc. Posting Codes Configuration ) for the GL associated with your savings bond redemptions. Then after you've entered the details of the savings bond redemption via the savings bond feature ( Tool #913 Update Savings Bond Information ), a teller would use the Misc. Advance proc code to post More...

I have a husband and wife who both receive Social Security payments to the same membership. Now that CU*BASE uses the new way of handling ACH transactions from the SSA, these are causing duplicate distributions to be posted. What should I do if my members still wish for them to be separate transactions?
With the 16.10 release a new cross-reference system was implemented that automatically funnels all incoming company IDs from the Social Security Administration and treat them as if they came from one, consistent company ID we’re referring to as the “Primary ID.” In cases where the Depositor ID is the same, for example a husband and wife, these ACH transactions will be handled by the same master ACH distribution record under the Depositor ID since duplicate Depositor IDs are no More...

My member gets a Social Security (SSA) deposit via ACH. We use an ACH distribution to pay the member’s loan payment, but the loan payment was not made. Why did this happen and what benefits are there to using an Automated Funds Transfer (AFT) instead?
Prior to the 16.10 release, the SSA began using multiple Company IDs, and it was recommended that credit unions consider using Automated Funds Transfers (AFTs) to handle distributions. Beginning the 16.10 release a new cross-reference system will be implemented that will automatically funnel all incoming company IDs from the Social Security Administration and treat them as if they came from one, consistent company ID we’re referring to as the “Primary ID.” With the changes ma More...

Do you have an explanation for members concerning the APYE calculation on their statement?
Truth-In-Savings requires certain disclosures on periodic statements. One of the disclosures required on dividend-bearing accounts is the “annual percentage yield earned (APYE)”. The APYE is an annualized rate that reflects the relationship between the amount of dividends actually paid to the member’s account during the period and the average daily balance in the account for that period. *Note - this calculation uses the member’s average daily balance for the period, More...

What do the various device and print job statuses on the iSeries mean?
When a device first connects to the iSeries, a virtual device is created - consider it a placeholder for that workstation or printer. Only one device can exist for each ID, which is why only one person can sign into a printer at a time. Throughout the virtual devices lifecycle, there are several different statuses that device can be in. Read below for some details! Workstations VARY ON PENDING - this is the default status of the virtual device. This status means the device is ready and wai More...

A member did not get either an October or November statement, but his December statement showed a range of 12/1 to 12/31, not 10/1 to 12/31 as I would have expected. Can you explain?
In this particular member's situation there was no activity in either October or November that triggered a statement. The credit union's quarterly (and year-end) statements are configured to produce a statement for every member, regardless of activity level, but monthly statements are more restrictive in an attempt to save postage costs, and not every member gets a statement every month. NOTE: CU*BASE statements have a considerable number of configuration options that allow credit unio More...

What precautions should I take when adding distribution records for a member who has more than one deposit coming in from the same institution but for different household members, for example Social Security deposits?
Special care should be taken when adding distribution records for a member who has more than one deposit coming for the family from the same institution. Take the time to research the member ACH records using the ACH inquiry screen, and if there isn't enough information on this screen, go to CU*SPY and find the PACXTB report to review the ACH detail. For example, the Smith family receives three ACH payments for Social Security benefits: one for the husband, John, one for the wife, Mary, and More...
