There are three new features in the Clearinghouse exit module. First, the ability to sort based on column (either campus, ssn or name). Second, the ability for a multi-campus school to select only a single campus (leaving campus blank will show all). Third, a new option on the menu to "Exit All" with a given separation date.

When cancelling a transaction, you will need to pick a "Cancel Reason" from the drop down list.

Often, an user will carelessly tab past the "Bank Account Type", leaving it set as Checking when it should have been selected for savings. To ensure people make a conciencious choice, the account type drop-down now has three choices. The first is "-- Select One --". The form will display a pop-up error message until a valid selection is made. This was released to clients using the Standard ePay templates today. Clients with custom templates will be converted as soon as possible.

A new service is available to "scrub" your electronic payments prior to sending them to the bank. This service, provided by Vericheck Online, can significantly reduce the number of ACH rejects you receive.

ACH transactions can now be "Reset". Any transaction that was rejected, cancelled or autocancelled can be re-sent to the bank. This feature requires additional security rights. To access this feature, have your supervisor contact ECSI.

We have defined a new transaction type: "AutoCan" which stands for "Auto Cancel". If we process your ACH rejects automatically, we will mark any rejected transactions as "AutoCan". This will enable you to separate those canceled by a manual process and those done through automation.

There is a new checkbox "AutoCan" on the Transaction List page.

A new date validation routine has been added to ePayment forms using a date. The date validation is now much more complete (including 2/29 in leap years). The date is also validated as a single unit instead of 3-parts. There will only be one error message for the whole date, instead of separate messages for month, day, year.

ePay clients with sufficient permissions can now update the status of a credit card transaction. Clients can reverse or credit transactions. This feature is useful if the payor accidently made two payments (reverse the second one).

ePay clients can now examine the status of a transaction at the credit card gateway processor. The transaction list page (adm00039) has a new option "[CheckIT]". If your security rights permit, this will display the transaction as ECSI has recorded it. The bottom of that page will present options to query the transaction against the SkipJack Network and retrieve the status.

Added First/Last/Next/Previous functions to match Windows software.

A new feature has been built into our web system. We can now cross-reference a nearly unlimited number of IDs for a person. For example, a SID, SSN, Customer ID or any other identifier. Each identifier can be a maximum of 32 characters.

This new feature will allow us to abstract all of our databases such that SSN is no longer used as a key.

We have enhanced our Clearinghouse Exit module to allow custom notification lists. Previously, we sent notices of Clearinghouse Exit Statistics to all users at a school. We can now define a list of up to ten people who will receive the Clearinghouse notifications.

If you would like to set up a custom notification list for your client, please contact our operations department (operations@ecsi.net) with a list of email addresses you wish to receive notifications.

To make the processes more efficient, several changes were made to the way the Clearinghouse Exit interface works. When selecting "Edit" to review/modify an item on your list, the item will appear in a new browser window.

Once you complete the item (either "Mark for Exit", "Bypass" or "Quit"), the window will close and you will be returned to the list of Clearinghouse Exits to process.

One advantage is the item you selected will remain selected when you are returned to the list. The list will not change so that the current selection will be preserved. That means the list will not reflect any changes until you press the new "Refresh" link (on the left).
