Including an Unposted Payments Field when Billing
When you calculate and assess late fee penalties, there is a field to click to include unposted payments. It would be helpful if that was also an option when calculating billing since the timing of posting can affect amount that is shown on a bill and make it confusing for customers and users.

Email notification on ALL payments made for accounts in shut off status.
Our system is set up to send us email notifications when a payment is made on an account in shut off status.
The system will ONLY generate an email if the payment takes the account out of shut off status.
We have a payment threshold set that any account over $100 will be shut off monthly. For example, If the balance is $150, and the customer pays $51, they will be removed from the shut off list this month, but they will still be in shutoff status because the payment did not satisfy the system requirement. The system only sends…7 votesThis enhancement requires more votes to move it forward. Please add your support if this is something you would like to see in a future release.

Customer Contact Wizard - Calls - Leave Voicemails
It would be beneficial for our customer base to have voicemails left of the recorded message template call when contacted through the customer contact wizard during an emergency. Without this, customers are screening calls and missing the messages, or calling us back and increasing our incoming call volume. Either way, they are getting delayed information since the system won't leave a voicemail currently.

Enhanced Portal Display/Reporting for Customer Service
The issue is that customers on the cutoff list are not paying the full $30 fee ($15 for disconnection and $15 for reconnection). The current portal does not clearly display this information, making it difficult for customer service to verify payments accurately.
When a customer pays only their past-due bill without including the required $30 fee, their service will not be reconnected, leading to their frustration. Our customer service team currently searches for these customers using a report that is limited and informs customers of the outstanding $30 fee, but this process is inefficient. A clearer, more streamlined solution is…

APPLYING AUTO PAY CHANGES TO ALL CUSTOMERS.
When updating the autopay for a customer if they have other autopays it wants to update all accounts, but doesn't show what accounts are setup currently. The only option is yes or no. Can you add another step to show what account #s are setup for the autopay and what current accounts are being drafted

IVR Voice
We would like to suggest having the ability to select an alternate voice for the IVR system. We find that a lot of our customer will not listen to a ROBO call. If we could have a voice that sounded like an actual person, they would be more apt to listen to the recorded message.

Pop up box when you dont save while adding services
We send both monthly and bi-monthly bills. When starting service on a TEMP account, if you do not click save after adding "details" in the location tab, UMS allows you to add a service but when saved, the rate code is missing. When this happens it defaults to the monthly rate which does not bill correctly for a bi-monthly bill.
There needs to be some kind of pop-up box or something that does not allow you to add a service until the details in the location tab are saved.

show service address when selecting "Back" drop down
In Account Control Panel show service address along with numbers shown when selecting "Back" drop down. Showing only location and customer numbers is not something we know by heart, so is not as helpful as looking for someone you looked up a few calls ago and want to check something again or enter information, notes about call, etc. Thank you so much - you all are awesome!

Reminders/ tasks
make them have the ability to "pop out" like notes do when you open UB4. It could either be by individual task date (which would be GREAT!) or just the entire task note. This would help to remind us of important things that might need changed, reviewed, or checked on before billing for example.

All capital letters for the parcel number
Can be changed or an option added to have the parcel number in the location tab, only be entered as capital letters? When the parcel number is entered with lowercase letters by mistake, it conflicts with some of our programs that use this information.

Location No. search
Would you please add a column to the Location No. search selected from the Account Control Panel that shows final date for each result for that location that has a final status after "Utility Status" column so that we can readily see which final result is the most recent?
Thank you so much, God bless, and we look forward to hearing from you!

Payment Reminder Emails
The ability to send payment reminder emails in advance of the payment. For people on arrangements this notice would contain the due date and payment amount. For auto-pay accounts, this notice would contain the amount to be drafted, the date of the draft, and the last 4 of the account number to be drafted.

Automatic Notification for Landlord Reversion
Would love a way to send landlords a notification automatically when a location goes back into their name. Some landlords are set up for landlord reversion, so they want to know the date it happens before they get their first bill.

Not Having 'Make Final Billed Utilities Inactive' on 'Next Customer'
During the move out process we are seeing that when we have a 'Next Customer' selected the 'Make Final Billed Utilities Inactive' box grayed out. This is causing issues when we have situations like if a customer has a returned payment we have to go back in and make the previous finaled account's services active again in order to process the returned payment. We would like an option to leave the 'Make final billed Utilities Inactive' unchecked despite having a 'Next Customer' or not

Replace Existing Contacts in Mass Add Documents, Notes, Contacts Addin
We would like the ability to replace existing contacts in the Mass Add Contacts Addin. When we add a contact currently, it adds another one rather than replacing if one already exists. For example, if we had an agent but the agent needs to change, rather than replacing it with the new data, it adds a new one so each one needs to be deleted manually.
