If you are creating a membership by copying over the data from an existing non-member record (like a joint owner or co-borrower is joining the credit union), the system will copy over all phone numbers tied to that non-member record and attach them to the new membership, then delete the old numbers tied to the non-member (since the non-member record itself also gets deleted at that time). This is not the same when copying from another existing membership , or when copying from a closed membershi  More...

Updates to fields such as address, phone number, mother’s maiden name, email, or code word, as well as phone number deletion, re-arranging phone numbers by Seq #, and changing phone number flags triggers a vendor maintenance record. Please be aware, any maintenance will update all cards attached to that membership! When a maintenance record is triggered, the phone numbers in CU*BASE will be transmitted to the vendor as they are labeled in MASTPH. This means that if the Primary phone number  More...

Yes, CU*BASE has Employee Security features that let you monitor access to CU*BASE programs by any employee ID, whether CU*Answers or credit union employee. Every time a CU*BASE program is accessed, the system records who accessed the command and when. For CU*Answers employees, the file records the individual ID for the staff member (not the alias) so you will be able to tell who from CU*Answers was doing the work. This file (file name SECAUD) was designed to let you see what commands an emplo  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. The numbers in MASTPH are determined by the label/flag applied in Tool #3 Open/Maintain Memberships/Accounts or Tool #15 Update Membership Information as follows: Nighttime # - primary phone number sent to vendor and defaulting into the Card Activation field when ordering a card. Daytime # - secondary phone number sent to the vendor. Mobile –   More...

That’s true when adding a brand-new record, but it is possible to re-sequence numbers later once the records already exist, so try this: Use Add and add the new contact number, leaving the sequence # as is After saving, select the new number in the list and use Edit Change the sequence # to 1 and press Enter A warning message will appear; use Add/Update to confirm All remaining phone numbers will be re-sequenced to fit the new one in. TIP: When changing the sequence number for an existin  More...

The member will need to wait 15-20 minutes until they are unlocked. Or the member can also toggle to the standard login process and enter their username, password, and answer to security question, then access the settings info option from the More menu, and they can reset their app data or go into authentication options and reset authentication options on all devices to re-establish their MACO features.

The most likely reason is that the member did not have any activity for the month that would trigger a statement, based on the CU's configuration. Most credit unions have their statement configuration set up to print a monthly statement only if the member has a checking account, and only if there is activity on that account, saving postage costs on months when there is no activity. You can verify this by viewing his Share Draft Transaction Inquiry in Phone Operator, then compare that to yo  More...

When the new database was created it was not feasible to adjust all of the hundreds of programs, custom forms, and reports where phone numbers happened to be used. So the original labels used prior to the 18.07 release may still appear here and there. That’s why the new database automatically copies contact numbers back to the original locations in MASTER and MASTRL, so these locations can still be used by those programs that were not adjusted to use the new MASTPH table directly. As a r  More...

You can do this by going to Phone Operator and selecting F9-Add Cmt/Message. Then select option 1 and create a new line with comment type 7.

CU*Spy supports current versions of IE , Firefox and Chrome. Safari is not officially supported but typically works. Usually if Safari has issues, in our experience, it is with displaying PDFs. Should this occur, this issue is outside of the CU*Spy web application and exists between the browser and it's ability to display PDFs and therefore we have no ability to correct this situation.

If you are interested in being able to find out how many mobile phone numbers you have in your database, instruct your team to take advantage of the Mobile phone checkbox, which can be checked for any stored contact number. Then when creating a Query of the MASTPH file look for numbers with a Y in the MTPEFT field.

The most important thing to understand is when the bill will be received, not how it will be paid. Payment methods are determined by the relationship between Fiserv and the biller, and are subject to change. When scheduling a payment, the system automatically pre-fills the earliest payment date the biller can receive the payment. The date can be altered to a future date, but not an earlier date. Once a payment begins processing, you will be able to view the payment method in the history. If the   More...

There is a standard report delivered through iPay's Master Site called the Exceptions Report . If you look at the members list for re-issues, those members incurred the stop payment fee.

The system will advance the next payment due date depending on the payments made during the “payment period” window, which runs from due date to due date (which is not always calendar month). Once the next payment period begins, any payments made will count towards the payment amount due until it is fully satisfied, at which point the due date will advance to the next payment period. Payments may still be made during the current payment period; however, any overpayments will be c  More...

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...

Our official statement is that CU*BASE is not integrated with any TCD or TCR hardware solution; however, you may find the information below helpful. When considering which model of TCD or TCR to select, it is important to realize that supported models are determined by your solution provider not CU*Answers. For example, if you are utilizing DynaCash, as the provider of the software that interfaces between CU*BASE and the cash handling hardware then they would determine compatibility. With this i  More...

The previous tools used for uploading and downloading to and from CU*BASE will be retired when your credit union recieves the 20.07 CU*BASE software release. For online and Site-Four credit unions, that date is Sunday, July 12. Self-processing credit unions will receive the release the following Sunday, July 19. To replace the two tools, a new tool was introduced in November 2018, Tool #1375 Data Transfers (Upload or Download) . Following the release, this tool will be the default data transfer  More...

The database that stores members who are enrolled for text banking is completely separate from the phone number database (MASTPH) used to record all of the member’s contact numbers. Remember that the Mobile flag is for reference, and also used to send mobile numbers to some EFT vendors. To update the text banking numbers, the member will need to log into It’s Me 247 desktop or mobile web banking, select Go Mobile then use the Text Banking “Enrolled Phone Numbers” feature  More...

To update a signature line in CU*BASE, you’ll use the Tool #497 Member Connect Marketing Tools . (You will need a file name to move forward, so it can be helpful to have a test file created in your QUERYxx library for situations like this.)

Select Online Banking and/or email message from the first window and then use Enter. On the Mem  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...
