We are interested in using RDC-IQ and are currently using a vendor other than eDOC Innovations (UrbanFT) for RDC Posting Services (batch posting). Can we move directly to use RDC-IQ with eDOC Innovations as the vendor?
This can be done if you completely close down your program with your existing vendor and do a hard cutover to RDC-IQ. However, depending on the status of your program, you may want to allow your members time to migrate. If you use a vendor other than eDOC Innovations for batch posting (UrbanFT, for example) and want to use RDC-IQ, we recommend that you first migrate to eDOC Innovations and use RDC Posting Services (a batch file process). Once you terminate your program with the former vendor, w More...

Why is my member, who qualifies for my Marketing Club, being charged my Service Charge fee instead of the Marketing Club dues? This member is currently a member in the Marketing Club.
This situation could occur if your credit union charges a Service Charge fee to members who do not belong to a particular Marketing Club. If a member does not have funds to cover the Club dues at the time the dues are posted, this member's status in the Club is changed to P for pending. (This can be confirmed on the TCLUBFEE exception report.) When the Service Charge posting program is run, the member is then charged the Service Charge fee (since the member is not currently active More...

We have a loan serviced by another financial institution that we are participating in. Our auditors have asked us to make sure that it is viewed as a loan, but we have it configured as an investment on CU*BASE. How should this be configured?
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...

Why does CU*Answers charge a monthly fee for running service charge programs we configure ourselves in CU*BASE?
There are two primary reasons we charge this fee: Our belief that we should do our best to keep our fees down when credit unions do not earn. This is why, for example, It's Me 247 mobile web is offered free to our credit unions. It's also behind our constant pressure to reduce fees where CUs have no basis or belief they can charge for a defensive, relationship service. Charging for these services in this manner fund other areas where the direct expenses cannot easily be identified wi More...

Under what rare circumstances will Tiered Services member points exceed possible points?
In online banking, members see both their Tiered Services points (member points) and possible points. As a general rule member points do not exceed possible points. Member points can exceed their possible points if the member has several accounts that qualify in categories that count each individual account instead of limiting points to one per loan category or dividend application. For example the categories of “general savings accounts” or “all other loans accounts” More...

I've set up Tiered Services to assign special electronic deposit hold group codes based on Tiered Service level. Are there reasons why a particular member might not have the group that matches their Tiered Service level for a particular month?
The most common reason why a member might have a hold group that's different from what would normally be associated with their Tiered Service Level is because of delinquency. During daily delinquency monitoring the system sets the Electronic Deposit Hold Group to a certain code when members go delinquent, according to your credit union's settings in both the Member in Good Standing feature as well as your Delinquency Aging Levels configuration. If the system considers a loan to be deli More...

How can Tiered Services possible points vary from member to member?
In online banking, members see both their Tiered Services points (member points) and possible points. Points awarded for aggregate balances can cause a variance in the amount of possible points granted. Members with higher aggregate balances could be granted a more possible points than a members with lower aggregate balances.

How are Tiered Services points calculated for aggregate balance ranges?
In online banking, members see both their Tiered Services points (member points) and possible points. Member points are granted for the highest aggregate balance range for which the member qualifies. For example if a member receives points for having an aggregate balance of over $25 , 000 in loans, the member does not also receive points for any of the other loan aggregate ranges. Possible points are calculated in the same manner as member points. Members with higher aggregate balances c More...

My member has contacted me and says they cannot view their check. What information do I need to collect for use when researching this issue?
If a member cannot view their check, the research team needs the following information: Credit Union Questions What is your credit union name? Have multiple members reported that they cannot view checks? Are these members having the same experience when viewing their check? (See Member Questions. ) Has the check appeared on the Check Exceptions Report? (TNDET) Was this check cleared at the teller line? (Sometimes this is referred to as a counter-killed check.) Are you able to retrieve a chec More...

Why do the totals on the Collections Summary Inquiry (Tool #982 Work Collections, then F15=Summary) not match the Delinquency Report (Tool #637 Print Collection Delinquency Report)?
The Collections Summary Inquiry totals are archived daily at the time when Delinquency Monitoring is performed. This is either in Beginning-of-Day or End-of-Day based on your credit union's configuration. The Delinquency Report, when run for the current month is gathering the member loan deliquency status in real time. Because transactions can be happening bewteen the two timelines the results can differ.

When reviewing the bill pay transaction register, the 2nd page lists fee exceptions. When the exception reads, "Monthly fee would take account below available balance," I would like to know if the fee attempt only happens once or continuously until the fee is collected.
Bill Pay fees post around the 11th of the month. The fee posting will only attempt once. An idea is to use this exception report and manually post fees if needed. Something to keep in mind: even if the member has Overdraft Protection, it may still give the exception listed above because Overdraft Protection does not cover fees.

Why do my totals on the Loan Delinquency Analysis Report (Tool #461) no longer match the Collection Delinquency Report (Tool #637)?
The two reports are using different criteria to determine loan delinquency: Loan Delinquency Analysis With the 13.0 release in the spring of 2013, the Loan Delinquency Analysis Report (Tool #461) was changed to report loan delinquency in days instead of months per updated NCUA requirements (see below*).

I have a husband and wife who both receive Social Security payments to the same membership. Now that CU*BASE uses the new way of handling ACH transactions from the SSA, these are causing duplicate distributions to be posted. What should I do if my members still wish for them to be separate transactions?
With the 16.10 release a new cross-reference system was implemented that automatically funnels all incoming company IDs from the Social Security Administration and treat them as if they came from one, consistent company ID we’re referring to as the “Primary ID.” In cases where the Depositor ID is the same, for example a husband and wife, these ACH transactions will be handled by the same master ACH distribution record under the Depositor ID since duplicate Depositor IDs are no More...
