Trial Balance Reconciliation

The Trial Balance Reconciliation chart is designed to help reconcile the Share and Loan counts & balances to the Spectrum Trial Balance report (PGNTB - Member Trial Balance)

The chart can be found in the Membership_Analysis_by_ACCOUNT document under the Member Charts tab

The chart data is affected by the following Configuration Files in vitalsigns\YOURCU\data\config

  • VitalSigns.xls
    • Contains the variables to exclude specific shares and loans (vTB_Exclude_LoanAction, vTB_Exclude_Collateral and vTB_Exclude_DescAbrv)
  • Membership_Analysis.xls
    • Contains the balance ranges used in this chart on the Ranges sheet (TRIAL-BAL)

The chart is divided into two main sections: Balance by Account and Balance by Suffix


Balance by Account

Balance ranges are calculated based on the total balance for each member account. These totals should tie back to the Summit Trial Balance.


Balance by Suffix

Balance ranges are determined by the individual suffix balance.


Closed Suffixes: All CLOSED suffixes that qualify for the trial balance

Closed shares qualify if the balance is non zero, or if the suffix is a share draft account
Closed loans qualify if the balance is non zero, or if the credit limit is greater than zero


Excluded Suffixes: All OPEN suffixes that do NOT qualify for the trial balance

These are shown this section with negative counts and balances
These are ALSO included in the Open Suffixes section


Open Suffixes: All OPEN suffixes

This total should match the Vital Signs Open Share/Loan totals on the status bar


Shares Breakdown Criteria

Included:
  • Balance <> 0
  • Share Draft Acconts (CF(21) <> " ")
Excluded:
  • Charged Off shares
  • Desc Abrv = $(vTB_Exclude_DescAbrv)


Loans Breakdown Criteria

Included:
  • Balance <> 0
  • Credit Limit > 0
Excluded:
  • Charged Off loans
  • Action = O,T,A
  • Collateral = $(vTB_Exclude_Collateral)


Trial Balance Reconciliation Askplus Queries

Shares Count and Balance by Suffix

Use the following query in Askplus to match to the Share Count and Balance in the Vital Signs Trial Balance Reconciliation chart
Note: "COS" can be modified to reflect the vTB_Exclude_DescAbrv list found in vitalsigns.xls
open membrs.report;

FIND PRIMARY=SHARE-FILE;
SHARE-FILE.DESC-ABRV <> "COS" AND
(SHARE-FILE.BALANCE <> 0 OR SHARE-FILE.CONTROL-FLAGS(21) <> " ")
END

REPORT
TF1, SHARE-FILE.ACCOUNT, TAB1, COUNT
TF1, SHARE-FILE.BALANCE, TAB2, ADD
END


Loans Count and Balance by Suffix

Use the following query in Askplus to match to the Loan Count and Balance in the Vital Signs Trial Balance Reconciliation chart
Note: "O","T","A" can be modified to reflect the vTB_Exclude_LoanAction list found in vitalsigns.xls
open membrs.report;

FIND PRIMARY=LOAN-FILE;
LOAN-FILE.ACTION <> "O","T","A" AND
(LOAN-FILE.BALANCE <> 0 OR
 LOAN-FILE.CREDIT-LIM > 0)
END

REPORT
TF1, LOAN-FILE.ACCOUNT, TAB1, COUNT
TF1, LOAN-FILE.BALANCE, TAB2, ADD
END
Note: If the Loan counts and balances are higher in Vital Signs compared to PMANSTAT or Askplus Queries, use the following to find other Actions to add to vTB_Exclude_LoanAction in vitalsigns.xls :
FIND PRIMARY=LOAN-FILE;
LOAN-FILE.ACTION <> "D","O","T","A" AND
(LOAN-FILE.BALANCE <> 0 OR
 LOAN-FILE.CREDIT-LIM > 0)
END

REPORT
S1, ACTION
T1, ACTION, TAB1
T1, ACCOUNT, TAB2, COUNT
END


What to look for if the Open Shares Count or Balance is lower than the Vital Signs status bar

Check for duplicate Shares in Vital Signs
  • Login to the Windows server as the Vital Signs admin user and open the Membership_Analysis_by_ACCOUNT locally
  • Click the Custom Charts tab
  • Right click the grey area and create a chart, choose straight table
  • Add SH_ACCOUNT and SH_SUFFIX as the dimensions
  • Add =count(SH_SUFFIX) as an expression
  • Click Finish
  • Double click the top right column Header =count(SH_SUFFIX)
  • Double click it one more time to sort it descending
  • If you see counts of 2 for many suffixes, check the SHXREFCCYYMMDD.xls for duplicate values in Column A
  • If you see counts greater than 2 for suffix 00 please contact support@vital-soft.com


What to look for if the Open Loans Count or Balance is lower than the Vital Signs status bar

Check for duplicate Loans in Vital Signs
  • Login to the Windows server as the Vital Signs admin user and open the Membership_Analysis_by_ACCOUNT locally
  • Click the Custom Charts tab
  • Right click the grey area and create a chart, choose straight table
  • Add LN_ACCOUNT and LN_SUFFIX as the dimensions
  • Add =count(LN_SUFFIX) as an expression
  • Click Finish
  • Double click the top right column Header =count(LN_SUFFIX)
  • Double click it one more time to sort it descending
  • If you see counts of 2 for many suffixes, check the LNXREFCCYYMMDD.xls for duplicate values in Column A


Membership Totals Reconciliation

Open Deposit Count and Balance

Use the following query in Askplus to match to the Open Shares Count and Balance in the Membership_Analysis_by_ACCOUNT status bar
Note: In the example below, replace the macros %VS-ACTIVE-SHARE and %VS-CHGOFF-SHARE with the matching criteria found in the /ASKPLUS/vsdata/custom/live/vsmacdef
open membrs.report;

FIND PRIMARY=SHARE-FILE;
%VS-ACTIVE-SHARE AND
NOT (%VS-CHGOFF-SHARE)
END

REPORT
TF1, SHARE-FILE.ACCOUNT, TAB1, COUNT
TF1, SHARE-FILE.BALANCE, TAB2, ADD
END


Open Loan Count and Balance

Use the following query in Askplus to match to the Open Loans Count and Balance
Note: In the example below, replace the macros %VS-OPEN-LOAN and %VS-CHGOFF-LOAN with the matching criteria found in the /ASKPLUS/vsdata/custom/live/vsmacdef. %VS-OPEN-LOAN will contain the macro %VS-ACTIVE-LOAN which should also be replaced by the criteria found in vsmacdef.
open membrs.report;

FIND PRIMARY=LOAN-FILE;
%VS-OPEN-LOAN AND
NOT (%VS-CHGOFF-LOAN)
END

REPORT
TF1, LOAN-FILE.ACCOUNT, TAB1, COUNT
TF1, LOAN-FILE.BALANCE, TAB2, ADD
END


Restore/Extract Prior EOM Report Databases

Step 1

Choose where the desired data will be restored into (eloq-TEST or eloq-TRAIN)
Enter this location into the /ASKPLUS/vsrvtcp.ini file by doing the following:
Login to HPUX as the askplus user
Edit /ASKPLUS/vsrvtcp.ini
At the end of the file, you will find the [vsdata_live_restore] section, modify "EQ_DBSERVER" to the correct value example :
[vsdata_live_restore]
login=bolive
Directory=/var/summit/spectrum/LIVE/vsdata
TEMP=/var/summit/spectrum/LIVE/vsdata/temp
EQ_DBSERVER=localhost:eloq-TEST
script_path=/ASKPLUS/vsdata/scripts
custom_path=/ASKPLUS/vsdata/custom/live
Vmgr=/ASKPLUS/vsdata/custom/live/vmgr_eom


Step 2 - (Required only during INITIAL Setup/Extract for Vital Signs)

Restore the year end membrs.report and membr2.report databases to the Eloquence instance you selected in step 1.
Run the extracts for the year end that was restored in step 2
Login as bolive
cd /var/summit/spectrum/LIVE
run /VSJOBS/JVSLOAD_MBRSHLN restore 20101231


Step 3 - (Optional)

Restore any prior month end membrs.report and membr2.report databases to the Eloquence instance you selected in step 1.
Run the extracts for the month end that was restored:
Login as bolive
cd /var/summit/spectrum/LIVE
/VSJOBS/JVSLOAD_MBRSHLN restore 20110131

Repeat step 3 for all the months that you want to load


Step 4

Process the new EOM extracts to the Vital Signs documents on the Windows Server

– login bolive – cd /var/summit/spectrum/LIVE – /VSJOBS/JVSRELOAD MBRSHLN_Monthly YYYYMMDD – YYYYMMDD must be the most recent month end extract or most recent month end available on the Windows Server hosting Vital Signs

Once the RELOAD has completed your new data will be available to view in Vital Signs.


UC4 Job Setup

Note: There is no need to have your job plans pause and wait for completion of these jobs before continuing with the next step

HISTORY Extract

The HISTORY extract job should run every day after midnight. There is no special end of month version of the history job.
   ## HIST - DAILY
   ## Run nightly- between 12:01 and 1 am, including weekends
   ## Login as bolive
   set -e
   /VSJOBS/JVSLOAD_HIST


MEMBER/SHARE/LOAN Extract

The daily job should run every night, except at month-end. Generally should be scheduled to run after midnight, but can be run anytime after CU close.
   ## MBRSHLN - DAILY
   ## Run nightly – should be scheduled to complete prior to 6am
   ## Do NOT run on the Vital Signs EOM
   ## Login as bolive
   set -e
   /VSJOBS/JVSLOAD_MBRSHLN
At month-end, a special version of the job must be run specifying the EOM parm and the date. This job will read the REPORT database, so it must be run after the report database has been updated. The daily MBRSHLN extract should not be run at month-end.
   ## MBRSHLN - EOM
   ## Run on the Vital Signs EOM after report databases have been created
   ## Login as bolive
   set -e
   /VSJOBS/JVSLOAD_MBRSHLN eom &YYYYMMDD
   #Where &YYYYMMDD is a UC4 variable containing the last day of the month
