How do I? and Field Help
Complete the following fields to add a relationship to the account.
Select this checkbox if the individual does not have a tax ID number. The system assigns the next available tax ID placeholder number. When you select the check box, Portico disables the taxpayer ID and type fields. |
|
Taxpayer ID Type |
Enter the taxpayer ID number in the Joint/Relationship TIN field and click the green arrow to verify if the individual is a member of the credit union. If the individual is a member of the credit union, the member information will appear. If Portico finds multiple credit union members with the same taxpayer ID number, the Member Search dialog box will appear. Select the correct member and click OK. This will be the member number and statement name that will appear in the Member Number field on the Member Information tab. The Member Number drop-down list will contain all the members with the same taxpayer ID number. You can use this drop-down list to select a specific member statement name to appear in the Relationship grids within Portico. If the taxpayer ID number is found in the closed account file, a warning message will appear. To open the Closed Account File dialog box, click the Closed Account icon button. Then, you can use the Action Type drop-down list to temporarily suspend the cross reference check by changing the Action Type field to Suspend so you can add the new relationship without deleting and re-adding the closed account record. Portico will reset the Action Type field back to Stop during the nightly cycle. If the individual is not a member of the credit union, select the type of taxpayer ID from the drop-down list. Then, complete the tabs to add information about the joint owner. If adding a beneficial owner that is not a member of the credit union and does not have a valid taxpayer ID number, leave this field blank. You can enter an identification card number or a passport number in the Owner ID field. Then, select the Alien ID check box or Passport Nbr check box to indicate the type of identification. When you click Save, Portico partially masks taxpayer ID numbers. If you are assigned to the Portico – User Can View/Maintain TIN security group or a credit union-defined security group with the Portico – User Can View TIN permission or the Portico – User Can Maintain TIN permission, an eye indicator will appear within the field to indicate that you have permission to view the taxpayer ID number. You can click inside the field to show the taxpayer ID. When you tab out of the field, the taxpayer ID will be masked. The taxpayer ID will remain unmasked as long as the field has focus.
