  • 1. I am using the Mobile App Card Control feature to allow members to manage their cards. How can I see data related to which members are using this feature? Public
    Preview
    There are several ways to view data on members using card controls.

  • 4. Does Employee Account Security control an employee's access to an account from everywhere on CU*BASE? For example, how about from Payroll or ACH? Public
    Preview
    Not every feature that potentially shows account details on an employee's account is governed by the Employee Account Security controls. Apart from technical impracticalities, our basic philosophy has been that employees who are given access to “sensitive” features (like Collections, or posting payrolls, etc.) should be trusted employees, and they should be allowed to use the tools to do their job. If they have to be hobbled or monitored, then perhaps they shouldn’t be tr  More...
  • 5. We are thinking of activating the new See and Jump features for online banking. Can you explain the thinking behind the security, and why only an account owner can have this access? Public
    Preview
    IMPORTANT NOTE: With the new look for It’s Me 247 being released during 2021, the “See” option shown on here is temporarily unavailable. Members who had See-only access previously configured will no longer have access. Jump, however, is still available. 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&rs  More...
  • 6. If I don't want my staff to use Auto-security, how do I control that? Public

  • 7. I am receiving a 'printer timeout error' when trying to print a document to my HP Laserjet 2200. What should I do? Public
    Preview
    The first thing to do is make sure all the cables are connected securely to the printer and the PC. Be sure to note if one of the cables is a network cable. If all of the cables are securely connected and you still cannot print, restart the PC and the printer. If you receive the same error once the printer and PC are back up, there is likely a hardware issue with the printer. If one of the cables that plugs into the printer is a network cable then the Jet Direct card (a network interface   More...

  • 9. I've never used Transfer Control in Online Banking before. How do I get started? Public
    Preview
    Transfer Control means that a member must tell you the account numbers where he or she would like to be able to transfer funds in Online Banking. (Audio Banking does not support Transfer Control lists.) Remember that these are accounts that will receive funds from the member's own account. If only transfer control lists are activated, a member will only choose from a drop-down list of names (not account numbers) from his configured transfer control list. You will need to decide how membe  More...

  • 13. What are the differences between an online ASP and in-house e-document strategy? Public
    Preview
    The differences ultimately come down to control and cost. The online ASP system is the fastest, simplest, most inexpensive way to get started with an e-documents strategy for your credit union.

    When a device first connects to the iSeries, a virtual device is created - consider it a placeholder for that workstation or printer.

  • 19. 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? Public
    Preview
    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...

    Preview
    Source of Receipt (SOR) is the paperwork that accompanies the checks to the Check Processor. It is the documented proof of when and from whom the checks were received. SOR provides the ABA# of the bank the checks are received from, the date of the cashletter, the amount of the bundle the check was in, the position of the check in the bundle (checks before after), and the tracer number assigned to the check.

    These symbols print when the printer doesn't know what graphic or font to use for the logo, signature, or MICR line. There are a few possible causes: Is this a new printer?
