IMPORTANT NOTE: When It’s Me 247 was updated in 2021, the “See” option shown on here was made unavailable. There are two major points to consider when thinking about allowing members to see information beyond the account to which they are actually logged in. Both extend beyond online banking to consider a financial institution’s role and responsibility in protecting member private data via all access channels, from the teller line to a back office employee answering   More...

Previously, credit unions used Code 38 for “Return to Maker”, but this code is no longer available in the system. This change was initiated by a Reg CC change in 2018. Now, if you are presented with a situation where you need to return a check to another institution, it is recommended that you use one of these codes to clarify the reason for the check return. Some codes allow you to make the change in CU*BASE. Others require that you contact your Check Item Processor. Read below for   More...

There are a couple of ways you can find this information: Use Tool #976 Where Your Members Borrow This tool pulls trade line data from stored credit report files, showing other financial institutions with whom your members do business. This tool lets you make a direct comparison between your credit union and a competitive FI. F  More...

In order to determine whether or not the minus sign should be removed from an item, the system looks at the G/L account itself to determine whether it is an asset, liability, income, or expense. However, for line items that represent totals of multiple accounts, the system does not have a single G/L account to look at to determine whether or not to hide the minus sign. This particularly affects items that were configured using total codes B (Bypass/Accumulate) and P (Print Bypassed Total) and   More...

Tool #360 End of Month Processing should be used by your credit union whenever you have finished posting entries to your books for a particular month and want to prevent additional entries from being posted accidentally.

We will not be converting any existing members who have only the See feature activated so that they automatically allow Jump for those relationships, but you can make those adjustments yourself as members request that access be reinstated. Use Tool #14 Member Personal Banker then choose See/Jump Relationships .

Within CU*BASE the Participation Lending software is for managing member loans and investor positions. With this the member record is serviced by your credit union and therefore recorded as an actual member loan. If your credit union is purchasing into a loan serviced by someone else and you would like to manage your investment in participation offerings by others, this can be done through the CU*BASE Investments subsidiary software. Some pointers to keep in mind: You will use Tool #993 INV 1:  More...

Yes! Click the new Profile button in the upper-right corner and choose Switch accounts.

The fields are related to Process Codes, in that they are derived from the code attached to the message received from the plastics processor (vendor, or switch).

Transaction types may not apply to all vendors. Examples of these labels are as follows: DEP (Deposit Transactions) ATM/DEP A deposit made at an ATM. ATM/DEP - including a $  More...

By design, there is no access to Phone Operator from within Xpress Teller. You can still use the Timeout Window to access Phone Operator, however.

No, the jump feature is not available in BizLink 247 . This is because of the multi-employee structure for business online banking. There is currently no mechanism to link the employee under one business membership to an employee under another business membership, so that the system knows what permissions to grant the employee once they’ve jumped. It's Me 247 supports jump but in this environment, members can only jump to memberships on which they are primary or joint. NOTE: Dur  More...

Using CU*BASE to Comply with New Rules for Tracking Beneficial Ownership FinCEN has issued new rules under the Bank Secrecy Act that require financial institutions to identify and verify the identity of the beneficial owners of all legal entity members (corporations, etc.).

In a nutshell, once the Jump feature is activated and the appropriate permissions are given, the member can “jump” to another account. Jump allows a member to log into one of their memberships and then jump to another of their memberships (same SSN) without additional authentication. Your biggest user of Jump will probably be a member with multiple memberships at your credit union. If a member jumps to another membership, this counts against the password of the jumped-to membership  More...

What This Message Means: This appears when the member has tried 3 times to enter their password incorrectly. The message does instruct the member to click I forgot my password and answer all three Security Questions to reset the password themselves. But if the member doesn't know their password or their security questions, they will need to contact the CU. BE CAREFUL: This is a scenario that presents the most risk to your members.
