Adding $Tellers

The Network Teller Control window lets you set up individual $tellers to be included in the Network Balancing process. The teller’s branch, and ID are used to determine if the $teller is subject to Portico’s auto close feature. The Dollar ($) Teller Service window and the Automatic Event Scheduling Transaction provides the information appearing in the Automatically, Scheduled Time, Date Last Closed, and Time Last Closed fields.

To access the Network Teller Control window, click Network Balancing within the Operations menu on the Portico Explorer Bar. On the Network Balancing top menu bar, click Administration, then click Network Teller Control.

The automatic closing and re-opening will occur at a credit union-specified time and frequency which is defined on the internal transaction DC20. The general ledger entries made by the system during the automatic close and re-open are:

  • JV1 (teller close move to interbranch shares in the ATM branch and then between interbranch shares and the ATM in-transit general ledger in the specified branch)
  • JV2 (daily fee income move)
  • JV9 (daily loan balance move between interbranch loans and shares)

The valid options are:

  • No Auto close and re-open - Do not close and re-open the $teller automatically. You must use the $Teller Balancing and Close window to close the $teller and the $Teller Open and Maintenance window to re-open the $teller. System default.
  • Month end only, no JV moves - Close and re-open the $teller automatically at month end only.
