CU*Answers has recently announced a new feature to automate what some refer to as “back-dating” or “effective-dating”. This new option allows users to “unlock” and enter a prior date, with CU*BASE automatically processing any necessary adjustments to dividends, interest, dates on printed forms, etc.
According to the Grand Rapids-based provider of services for credit unions, an on-going focus has been to simplify account adjustment features, which can be a very complicated manual process.
With the 10.3 release of CU*BASE a brand-new feature called ‘Effective-Dated Account Transfers has been included. This feature provides the ability to unlock the previously posted date and enter a past effective date, move money from one account to another, and have the system subsequently calculate and post appropriate adjustments to dividends or interest. CU*Answers said it has also made significant enhancements to the existing Effective-Dated Account Adjustments feature.
