The member will be subject to the teller credit union's configured check cashing fee (the shared branch where the transaction is being performed ) and the fee will post to the teller credit union's configured fee G/L. NOTE: The system will use the member fee, not the non-member fee, in these cases.

As the name of this G/L suggests, this suspense G/L is a wash-through account for automatic system transfer processes such as member journal account transfers, auto check transfers etc. Therefore this G/L should be zeroed out each day as both sides of the transfers offset each other and wash through this G/L. However there are certain things that can occur (either automatically or manually) that may cause a balance to remain in this G/L and require manual intervention to clear it out. The m  More...

Because of CU*BASE design to integrate directly to the general ledger is one of its most impressive features, the teller system needs to process as its own section. In order to discourage inaccurate or misleading transaction reversals or back-dating, the dual system segreates the teller drawer (cash) from the member transactions and balances. If the two steps are not completed correctly, the general ledger will be out of balance. Fortunately you can use Tool #31 Reverse Tran/Adjust Drawer (Same  More...

A Gweep is a combination GUAPPLE and iSweep. The base unit is identical to a GUAPPLE and it runs a virtualized copy of an iSweep appliance, eliminating the need for two physical units. (Note: on the network, the Gweep is still two logical units and requires two unique IP addresses - one for the GUAPPLE half, one for the iSweep half.) The network requirements for the Gweep are identical to that of the GUAPPLE and iSweep. Please review the articles below and ensure that the requirements of b  More...

A month is always considered 30 days regardless of the actual number o  More...

Decreasing Life is used to indicate the amount of coverage decreases over the term of the policy. So, used in credit insurance, the coverage drops as the loan balance drops. Level Life indicates the amount of coverage and cost remains until the policy terminates. Note* - GIven that a balloon loan has a portion where the amoritzed balance decreases and the balloon amount remains, CU*BASE does NOT support the use of both decreasing life and level life on the same balloon loan.

Whenever you reverse a loan payment, make sure to review the loan due date before an  More...
