  1. Ability to change the phone type without having to delete and re-add the number

    Ability to change the phone type without having to delete and re-add the number.
    It would be a lot more convenient to be able to modify a phone number type from say home to cell instead of having to delete it and then re-enter it. The way it works not leaves room for error having to delete and then re-add the number just to change the type.

    We’ll send you updates on this idea

    Thank you for your suggestion regarding the ability to change the phone type without having to delete and re-add the number. We appreciate your input and understand the convenience this feature could bring.


    After careful consideration, we have decided not to implement this enhancement at this time. The current process of deleting and re-adding phone numbers is designed to ensure proper auditing of account changes. This is crucial for maintaining accurate records and accountability, which are essential for the integrity of the UMS system.


    While we recognize that the current method may seem inconvenient, it plays a vital role in preventing unauthorized changes and maintaining data accuracy. Ensuring that all modifications are logged helps us track changes effectively and uphold the security of account information.


    We are committed to balancing user convenience with the need for robust security measures. Although we are unable to accommodate this specific request, we will…

  2. Detailed email history from using Customer Contact Wizard

    The emails that are sent through Customer Contact Wizard currently only show customer name / account number / date email was sent / and subject of email through the report. There is no history of communication on the user's account. I think there should be detailed email history available so it includes email body and/or the ability to cc the utility admin on all correspondences through customer contact wizard. In addition, being able to view every communication through the user's account (control panel).

    We’ll send you updates on this idea

    After careful consideration, we regret to inform you that we are unable to accommodate this request. Storing the full body of emails would significantly increase the data size and raise concerns regarding long-term storage and space management. Our current system is designed to store only the history of email sends, which allows us to maintain efficient performance and manage resources effectively.

     

    We understand the importance of having access to detailed communication records, and we are exploring alternative solutions that may better suit your needs without compromising our system's integrity. In the meantime, we encourage you to keep copies of important emails in your own records.

     

    Thank you for your understanding and cooperation.

  3. Resequence - UNDO button - move this options elsewhere?

    Our old system was setup fine - UMS system apparently has a button under the billing process that you can resequence the route. There is no warning about it once you click the button - and my co-worker did this by accident and did not even realize it. Now our route is messed up and accounts are being missed - and old accounts are now in thee route that have no houses. Is there any way to REVERSE this error? or the button to resequence should be moved so it isn't so readily available - maybe under the meter section…

  4. Alert for pmts stuck in Gateway - without having to manually look

    Until recently, we did not know about having to check the Gateway for "stuck" pmts. It would be nice to get an alert via email that there is an issue with a customer pmt. 2 months went by and a customer said they made a pmt online - but then it was not reflected in her acct. Support helped us locate this pmt. // other ex: was a customer made a pmt and it was taken out twice int he Gateway log - it was disputed by the customer, and even tho we showed 1 was for a water pmt,…

  5. Change Batch Feature back please!

    Prior to this last update 2 weeks ago (sept 2024), we were able to change batches. While on my end it didn't change the Payment/transaction date, it would allow changes to the batch and able to post them.

    In my time zone 5 pm is your cut off for credit cards. Anything after that time is included in the following day. I think we need the change batch feature back. If it is not included into our bank deposits total, then we should be able to match our posting totals. I could post each individual account to match bank deposits,…

    This has been declined due to electronic payments not being permitted to have the date altered. Helped the customer individually with reconciliation and she was satisfied with the results.

  10. universal sorting features

    So, I guess the better option would be if I can sort it this way here, I want to be able to sort it that way anywhere.

    It seems to be a common theme in a few threads. "Limit to" should be universal to all reports. "Sort by" should also be universal to all reports.

    I can do a whole diatribe on mining data, but the nutshell is that we shoudl be able to pull and sort all of our data any way we like because we all have different needs and new things come up that deter our ability…

  11. E-bill statement attachments

    We would like to have the ability to attach a pdf to e-bill notices to avoid sending out a separate email. This would be especially helpful since we send our Consumer Confidence Report each year with our bill and now will be sending Lead and Copper information with our bills. It is not ideal to have to send another separate email when customers who recieive a paper bill get the notices with their bill. And we are limited to how many emails we are permitted to send. So please make the ability to attach a pdf with the ebill notice.

    After further consideration, this item has been declined. Adding attachments to the e-bill process would significantly reduce UMS performance. To remedy this, UMS has a newly enhanced customer contact wizard available for any required customer communication outside of the e-bill process. This feature allows users to limit the communications to only e-bill customers (if desired), as well as allowing them to add an attachment to the communications.

  12. more robust note feature

    allows in mass notes with where the note will be and whether or not an expiration should be on the note.

    Ex. statement message for Ward 3 "hydrant flushing the week of 6/10" that runs through 6/10

  16. Transaction History by Payments or Charges Only

    In the History tab, transactions have options for limiting/sorting what you can view. It would be helpful if we could limit viewing transactions by Charges, Payments, or Misc Charges only.

  17. Rate Code List Changes

    We use the Rate Code List Report to verify that we have successfully changed all of the PGA rates from month to month. We print it to have a record that the price was changed. In a future update, you might consider adding a date selection to this report, as it prints all dates and that can make for a lengthy report. We really only need the most one or two recent changes.

  19. Auto Payment Wizard Error Report Re-Print

    It would be helpful if the auto payment wizard error report that is generated after you run auto pay to be available in the reporting tab at any given time based on the date auto pay was run. At this time it is only available for a brief moment after you run the process and then disappears once it is closed.

    This request has been declined because we do not store sensitive data and we use tokenization to process recurring credit cards.  We encourage users to save a copy of the report when it is initially created.

  20. Ability to remove, delete Customer after defined period

    I would like the ability to individually select customers to remove/ delete after a defined period of inactivity that I specify such as 5 years, 10 years, etc. It would not affect Location notes, data, items specific to location, would not affect meter changes/ data but would delete that specific customer's financial history, customer and account notes specific to that customer and/ or period of time selected. It would also make their customer number now available for use.
