Prong

Pri

The priority of the account relationship. This is a credit union-defined field. Any value between 01 and 99 is valid, where 01 is the highest priority and 99 is lowest priority. When the account has multiple joint owners within the same relationship/derived group, the priority can be used to determine the joint name that appears in the account listing and in documents generated through Document Preparation. Portico determines the name using the following criteria:

  1. Are there account relationships with an Account Indicator field of Individual, Joint, Guardianship or Miscellaneous?
  2. If yes, do the account relationships also have a Relationship Indicator field of Joint, Authorized Signer, Owner of Funds, or blank (all)?
  3. If yes, then Portico will look at the priority number of the account relationship(s). Since the accounts are in SSN numerical sequence, the first account relationship within the derived group with a priority of 1 will be used as the joint name. Portico will use the priority to sort the order of the relationships in highest to lowest, where 1 is the highest priority, followed by priority number 2, and so on.
  4. If none of the account relationships meet this criteria (account indicator, relationship indicator and priority of 1), then Portico will look at the Share Joint Name field on the Shares - Relationships tab. If a name is entered in the Share Joint Name field, that name will be used as the joint name.

When a business account has multiple beneficial owner relationships within the same relationship/derived group, the priority can be used to determine the name that appears in documents generated through Document Preparation. Portico determines the name using the following criteria:

  1. Are there account relationships with an Account Indicator field of Agency, Business, Corporate, or Individual?
  2. If yes, do the account relationship also have a Relationship Indicator field of Account Holder, Aggregated to, Beneficial Owner, Known Transactor, Controlling Interest, Doing Business As, Guarantor, Member of, Power of Attorney, Signatory, or Ultimate Beneficial Owner?
  3. If yes, then Portico will look at the priority number of the account relationship(s). Since the accounts are in SSN numerical sequence, the first beneficial owner relationship within the derived group with a priority of 1 will be entered in the mapped field. Portico will use the priority to sort the order of the beneficial owners in highest to lowest within the derived group, where 1 is the highest priority, followed by priority number 2, and so on.
