The G/L offset account for this account type.

NOTE: If this account number is changed on an existing account, the system will write an entry to GHIT in order to move the balance of the account to the other account as part of the nightly TR journal entry. (You will see the entry on your books the next day.) The GL entered here must match the GL that’s configured on the certificate type code.  

These fields will show the joint owner names that are flagged to print on correspondence (although you can have unlimited joint owners on file, only two of them can print on correspondence such as statements).

The date when this certificate was created.

This code indicates how dividends should be paid to the member.

0=Transfer Dividends are paid directly into a member's account.

1=Addback Dividends are added directly back into the CD.

2=Check Dividends are paid to the member by check. If this option is selected, F22-Div Chk Pay To can be used to change the Pay To and address information used for these dividend checks (if desired by the member).

• SEE ALSO: Principal Distributions

Indicates how the certificate will be handled upon maturity. If a principal distribution amount is entered, only transfer or check can be selected.

0=Manual - Upon maturity, do not renew the certificate, and wait for the member to indicate how the account should be handled. The certificate account will remain in place and will accrue dividends as shown in the Rate After Mature field on the certificate account record. If there is no rate in this field on the account record, the system will automatically insert the rate from your credit union's base Share Dividend Application (usually “SH”).

1=Auto Renew - Upon maturity, automatically renew the CD, using the settings in the Renewal CD Type and Part Renew Amt fields. Renewal incentives will be applied at that time.

2=Transfer - Upon maturity, transfer the entire CD balance into the account shown in the Trfs/Rdmpt field.

Second Column

The branch number associated with this certificate, for credit unions which use branch level accounting.

Indicates the type of CD that should be created upon renewal. The system uses this code, not the renewal CD type from the product configuration, to handle this specific account.  (Changing that configuration will not alter this setting on this CD.)

• NOTE: If this is an IRA certificate, the system will not allow you to enter a non-IRA CD type, and vice versa. The same is true for an HSA certificate; renewals must be to another HSA product.

This code indicates how penalties will be calculated on early withdrawals from this CD:

L Either the calculated penalty or the total earned dividends will be used as the penalty amount, whichever is lower.

(blank) The standard calculated penalty amount will be used, regardless of the earned dividend amount.

G Either the calculated penalty or the total earned dividends will be used as the penalty amount, whichever is greater.

Any invalid code means that the greater of the two amounts will be used.

For example, say that a CD has only been open for 30 days. The dividends earned are for that 30-day period only. Since the normal penalty is calculated based on 90 days, the “L” code means that only the 30-day penalty will be incurred.

This is the total number of days used to calculate penalties. For example, if this field is set to 90 days, the penalty for early withdrawal on this CD is calculated as 90 days' worth of dividends.

The total amount of dividends paid over the life of the certificate.

The total amount of dividends withdrawn over the life of the certificate.

The total amount of deposits made into the CD account, for certificate types which allow additional deposits.

If automatic renewal has been set up in the Auto Renewal ID field, this field indicates the total amount which will be rolled into the new CD upon renewal. If no amount has been entered, the entire CD payout amount will be rolled into the renewal CD.

• If an amount is entered into this field, a partial renewal may be done. Any remaining funds not rolled into the new CD will be placed in the Trsf/Rdmpt account number listed on this screen.

The total amount of dividends accrued on this account.

These fields indicate paid YTD dividends for each calendar quarter.

The balance as of the last time this certificate was renewed.

The original amount used to open the certificate.

If the member is subject to dividend withholding, this field shows the amount withheld from this account year-to-date.

This field shows the total of all penalties incurred on early withdrawals made from this certificate during the current year. This amount is used for tax reporting and is cleared automatically during beginning-of-year processing each year.

The total amount of funds in this account which are pledged as security on a loan (Pledged Shares) or other Miscellaneous Secured Funds records.

• BE CAREFUL: This figure comes from the Pledged Shares and/or Misc. Secured Funds detail records, and cannot be changed to a total that does not match those records. Instead, use the Update Misc. Secured Funds feature or the Pledged Shares option (Update Misc. Loan Information) to modify or delete the secured record.

Third Column

A code indicating how the CD dividends are calculated. Valid codes are as follows:

A Dividends compounded on the CD balance plus accrued daily dividends

C Dividends computed on the current CD balance

S Dividends computed on original CD amount (face value) only

A code indicating the frequency of dividend payments. Frequency codes are credit union-configured.

This field indicates whether dividends for this CD are paid monthly based on the issue date, or the calendar month.

I Payment is based on the date of issue (i.e., if date of issue was the 15th, dividends are paid each month on the 15th).

F Payment is based on the first day of the calendar month (i.e., dividends are paid on the 1st of the month regardless of the date of issue).

E Payment is based on the last day of the calendar month (i.e., dividends are paid on the last day of the month regardless of the date of issue).

• Remember that payment frequency may vary according to the setting in the Dividend Payment Freq field. Therefore, if dividends are paid quarterly and the Divd. Payment Type code is set to “E,” dividends will be paid on the last day of the quarter.

The dividend rate earned by the certificate.

The dividend rate to be earned by the certificate after maturity, if automatic renewal instructions have not been set up.

This code, configured by the credit union, indicates the type of variable rate, if any, used by this certificate.

The original rate used when the CD was created. For variable rate certificates only, this may be different from the current rate.

The incentive rate, if any, granted upon automatic renewal of the CD. This rate will be added to the current rate shown on the CD product at the time of the renewal.

The first number indicates the number of times this certificate’s rate has “bumped” to a more advantageous rate by the member during the term of the certificate. The second number indicates the maximum allowed “bumps.”
