You can use Tool #506 Member Rate Maintenance to control product rates read to members in CU*Talk Audio Response.

No, our CSRs will not reset the 2-character CU*BASE Employee IDs for your staff. This must be done by an internal CU security officer. Use Tool #762 Reset Employee ID Password . (This can also be done via Tool #327 CU*BASE Employee Security using the Reset PW option.) It is important that credit unions insure proper training to their employees regarding the expiration of their CU*BASE Employee ID password. We deliver a warning message of expiration 7 business days prior to the staff member.   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 quick way to clean house is to click the Lookup button next to “Name” on the initial Query screen (Tool #100) to display all of the definitions in your QUERYxx library.

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...

There are several configurations that control the member’s ability to set up and maintain Automated Funds Transfer (AFTs) online. Does your credit union's Personal Internet Branch configuration allow the maintenance of AFTs? Are AFTs configured to show in online banking? Does the member's PIB configuration allow maintenance of AFTs in online banking? For existing AFTs: Is the record locked to prevent changes in online banking? 1.

When you use the filter buttons on the File Maintenance Inquiry dashboard (Tool #159: Audit File Maintenance Inquiry (CUFMNT)), indicators note which programs, fields/columns, and files/tables AuditLink has flagged as “critical” for auditing teams to monitor on a daily basis. You can quickly sort by that indicator and select only those items for a quick scan of maintenance that directly affects member accounts. Below is a listing of these critical items. Columns/Fields Field Why   More...

When a credit union statuses a member's card as 'HOT' or warm (Lost/Stolen/Fraud/Restricted), this information is transmitted immediately to your vendor to stop any further withdrawals/purchases being performed with that particular card. But at your vendor a 'Hot Card' is not considered to be a closed card. When your member's card remains at a HOT or Warm card status on CU*BASE, CU*BASE is still required to send any maintenance updates such as address change, phone numbe  More...

You can edit and delete erroneous documents. This is performed through idocVault and cannot be done on CU*BASE. Anyone that is in the CUADMIN user group on idocVault, will have permissions to edit any document. They can delete, edit indexes, or move it to another table. For example if a receipt ended up in the Photo ID table they could move it to the receipts table. If they do not see the edit button (All the way over on the right of the document list in idocVault) then either they don't hav  More...

An indexed database like the photo ID vault is only as good as the data typed into the index fields on each image stored. When IDs are scanned it is critical that the SSN entered is correct. If this accidentally gets deleted (reset to 000-00-0000) during the scanning process, or someone fat-fingers a stray number into that index field while saving, that ID image is now attached to the wrong SSN. CU*BASE uses that SSN to locate the ID. If multiple IDs have been scanned under the same SSN, the  More...

At implementation of the release two reports were placed in your credit union’s HOLDxx OUTQ. The first, CNV40003, lists all  More...

The process can vary a bit according to the vendor, but here's a discussion about how it works for credit unions on the CO-OP network, as an example. In most cases, debit card authorizations create a Misc. Secured Shares record on the member's account to hold the funds. When the actual transaction comes in, this record is automatically deleted. (There are exceptions to this rule, such as gas purchases.) A little history: In the past, debit card authorizations would add a hold to an ind  More...

The Secondary Names (SECNAMES) file stores instructions that link a membership account to another member or non-member record. The file stores links to joint owner names and beneficiary names for all non-IRA account types. (IRA beneficiaries are stored in a completely different file because they are linked to an IRA Plan Type, not specific individual sub-accounts.) The file also stores a third type referred to as miscellaneous owner which can be used for any purpose you wish. The most co  More...

Tray assignments are controlled by a combination of the model in the CU*BASE library, the print session configuration, the Windows driver, and the settings on the printer itself. Let's break down how each affects it first: Model in library - each model defines the PCL code that CU*BASE appends to the print job for duplex and trays. If the wrong model is selected, the wrong PCL may be pushed with the print job. It is also important to have a supported printer , otherwise CU*Answers cannot   More...

PIB-MLO (Personal Internet Banking Multi-user Log On) is the online security tool that businesses can use to have complete control over the access to their BizLink 247 (formerly It's My Biz 247 ) account.

Each user's access to and activities in BizLink 247 can be controlled, either via CU*BASE or PIB-MLO. Each individual t  More...

CU*BASE uses phone numbers that are stored in the MASTPH file when generating card activation information to send to vendors on initial card orders.

Daytime # - secondary phone number sent to the vendor. Mobile –   More...

No. This requires a very high level of security access on the iSeries, which we cannot make available to our clients. The only way for CU*BASE user IDs to be created or deleted is to fill out and submit a Credit Union Security Authorization Request to our Client Services team.

No, those statistics are only updated when the original posting program charges a fee to the member. The idea behind this stats file is to record the member was NSF when the item originally came in, regardless of why. There may be several reasons why you reverse the fee, not all of which would mean the history should be changed. (For example, say the item came in NSF but the member had called and said his paycheck was coming tomorrow, so you gave him a break and reversed the fee. In this cas  More...
