Screen Overview

This screen is used to print a transaction register showing all transactions posted to member accounts. You can also choose to print just a summary showing total deposits and withdrawals by transaction code and type.

NOTE: Examples are below for staging this report for current and previous months.

Use this Report

  • To run a summary report to get a total of all ATM transactions for last month.

  • To run a detail report to list all transactions made to written off loans using a primary G/L = 719.00.

  • To run a detail report to list all the mail direct transactions that were posted for a specific day using origin code = 04.

  • To run a detail report for all transactions this month that offset to G/L 870-00 miscellaneous suspense.

  • To run a detail report for all transactions ran by a specific employee for last month.

  • To run a detail report for all manually posted ACH Transactions. Click here to see how to stage the screen to use this screen for balancing after the Post feature has been used from the ACH Exceptions Screen.

  • For auditors to monitor members flagged with wrong addresses, as well as members who enrolled in e-Statements but have wrong email addresses.

Practical Uses of this Report

Use this report to find totals of transactions by origin code to analysis the activity for the month. Use this report to find a group of transactions offsetting a specific primary G/L or specific offset G/L.

For auditors, use this report to monitor members flagged with wrong addresses, as well as members who enrolled in e-Statements but have wrong email addresses.  This report allows the selection of activity by transaction code, origin and type (to allow for the selection of EFT transactions that require the production of a statement).  Filter the report results to just the members you need to monitor.  Use the “Export report to file” feature to create a file of these members for use in Report Builder and Member Connect.

How Do I Save/Retrieve My Report Settings?

For more details on setting up this feature, refer to the Automating Reports and Queries booklet, available on the CU*BASE Reference page. 

This report can be used with the “Report Scheduler,” a time-saving automation feature that allows you to select and save the filters you use to run several commonly used reports and then set these reports to be run automatically by our operations staff on the first of the month.  Or you can save the settings and run them manually by yourself at any time.

o save your report settings, first select your filters, including printer (can be a physical printer or the HOLDxx or MONTHxx OUTQs).  Then select Save Settings (F24).  On the next screen name your settings (we recommend adding your name!), and designate whether you wish to run this manually or if you wish for operations to run the report.  At a later time, use Retrieve Settings (F23) to populate the screen with the settings you have saved.  You can also edit your settings using Retrieve Settings (F23).  All saved settings can be viewed on the Report Automation: Standard Reports screen.

Staging of Screen for Printing a List of ACH Transactions Posted Today Through the ACH Exceptions Post Function

Use the staging below to print this report for use with reconciling your ACH Exception Report (F14-Print on the ACH Exceptions Screen) totals after using the Post option on the ACH Exceptions screen.

·NOTE: In this example, the report is staged to list all the member transactions that posted on October 11, 2012 by Employee AA that were offset to G/L 870.11. Employee will use this report every day to verify the transactions they posted to the member’s accounts from the ACH Exceptions Screen using the Post option (function).

  • NOTE: In this example, the report is staged to list all the member transactions that posted on September 30, 2012 by Employee AA that were offset to G/L 870.11. In this example, we are using the End-of-Month file for September. Employee will use this report to verify the transactions they posted to the member’s accounts from the ACH Exceptions Screen using the Post option (function) from the previous month, when needed. You will need to use the End-of-Month file from the same month as the selected date to get the desired results. If you use the current month, with a date from a prior month, your report will not include any transaction.
