How to Use This Screen

The Open/Close Dashboard will Change the Way You Do Business!

With over 50 ways to analyze your data, the Open/Closed Membership Dashboard will change the way you think about your credit union. This Dashboard is more than just an analysis tool. Use this data to review the policies and strategies at your credit union. Use the built-in PDF Export feature in the analysis to create full-color PDFs of the data and charts to share with your Board.

Use Analysis (F15) to move to four screens of analysis on these members. Use the filters to find answers to questions such as:

  • Are marketing campaigns you implemented to increase products and services per member working? Has the age, gender or bill pay adoption of your membership changed? Enter different date ranges to filter the data and view your results.

  • How do your indirect lending members compare to your standard credit union members? Categorize your Indirect Lending members by membership designation. Then use the search criteria to filter by this indicator.

  • Do you have employees who are consistently opening more memberships who might be mentors to others? Data on your high performers is available in the analysis

The Open/Closed Dashboard is also a great Membership Service tool too. Your staff can use the built-in membership checklists to “check off” tasks on a New or Closed checklist, for example, creating a laminated membership card or sending some disclosures of other paperwork. Then have your team use the Dashboard to audit these checklists to ensure all your members receive the same high level of service

How to Use This Screen

On the entry screen use the filters at the top of the screen to filter your membership to view, work with, or analyze member who fit specific criteria. A date range must be entered. Then press Enter to view a listing of the selected memberships that were either opened or closed during the period (depending on the filter option selected)..

Once you press Enter the number of memberships who fit your criteria will be shown in the “records analyzed” shown in the upper right of the screen. The “closed” figure indicates how many of these selected memberships are currently closed, though not only during the date range selected.

Then use this screen to work these selected members:

  • Work the members using the Action buttons to the left of the member, such as the Checklist option which allows you to “check off” items on an open or closed membership list.

  • Use Analysis (F15) to view four screens of analysis of these members.

  • Use Export (F9) and Member Connect to contact these members and send them marketing emails or mailings.

Understand that results seen on this screen are a reflection of current data with every historical membership adjustment or pending situations already having taken place. It is normal to see that this dashboard’s total member count is different from other dashboards, or some query results

Other membership counting tools or your own existing queries may use the EOM files for capturing a membership count at the precise moment of a month closing out. At any month-end, there are still moving elements in place that affect defining whether a membership is open, and what membership open date will be assigned.

For example, if a membership application is being held “pending” until all credit checks, etc have been done you may have a case where the application date is 08/29/2017, but is not completed until 09/03/2017. It will not be in the MASTER file until 09/03/2017, but with an open date of 08/29/2017. This dashboard will read that membership as opened in August, but the August EOM of EMS0817 will not see it.

EOM files are nice as a raw copy of MASTER as of a moment in time, but not for attempting to compare against tools which work off current data. 

Refer to the Data Sources listing at the top of this page for a listing of files you would need if you wish to create a customized query report.
