Add Payment Reversals to Customer Payment History Report.
Program Payment Reversal code into this report so I can balance this report to the Payconnex settlement. There is no audit trail, and I must manually adjust and notate it was a reversal. I uploaded an example. I did print a transaction report for Payment Reversal, but it needs to be included in the total on the Customer Payment History Report.

Autopay Fixed Amount Improvements
An autopay option that will allow a fixed amount, but would also allow the entire balance to be drafted if the bill is higher than the fixed amount.
Our customer has her draft set up with a fixed amount of $75, but since it was less than the bill amount, it only drafted the $75.
She likes to keep a credit on her account, and her balance is typically lower, but due to the lower temperatures we had in this billing period and the fuel adjustment cost, her bill was almost $200.
She didn't realize that, with her autopay set…

schedule enable/disable scheduled ach
Be able to schedule an enable or disable for scheduled ACH. Background: I'm going away and there will not be anyone to process them, so we don't want the customers to have access during that time.

Break Out Delinquencies in Communication Preferences
Our organization currently utilizes the system’s Communication Preferences functionality to manage automated notifications related to customer delinquencies. At present, the system defaults all delinquency-related notifications to a single, unified communication preference setting, which is robocall. This creates challenges when we attempt to tailor communications based on the stage or severity of the delinquency.
Current Process: We run penalties and send out corresponding penalty notices.
Separately, we process shutoff actions for accounts that have escalated beyond the penalty phase.
The system’s default robocall configuration applies uniformly to all delinquency stages, without allowing differentiation between penalty communications and shutoff communications.Business Need::…

Add Account Status Filter/Sort to Delinquency Register Report
During the 2025 User Group, feedback was provided that while UMS currently allows filtering by Account Status (Custom Account Status from Setup >> Account Status) on the Create Delinquency screen, this option is not available on the Delinquency Register Report. Utilities, including Northshore, rely on the Account Status flag during delinquency processes. Adding the ability to filter or sort by Account Status on the Delinquency Register would allow users to:
Quickly identify which accounts require delinquency actions.
Make the process more granular and streamlined.
Improve operational efficiency by aligning reporting with existing delinquency workflows.
Business Impact:
Many utilities use the…9 votes -
Deposit Register Sort Order
It would be beneficial to have a "charge date" sort order option. We would like to review the oldest deposits on file to ensure security deposit refund accuracy. Thank you

Apply Taxes Based on Taxing Authority and Rate Code - Not Just Rate Code
We currently have 6 different taxing authorities which requires us to maintain 7 different sets of rate codes. This means we have well over 200 rate codes. If taxes could be applied based on the combination of taxing authority and rate codes, we would only need to deal with 30-40 rate codes.

Memorized Report Parameters
I need to run several reports at the end of every month, and it would sure be nice if we were able to "memorize" each report and have a dedicated folder for "User Reports" to save time at the end of each month. For those that use QuickBooks, I'm thinking something like how you can memorize reports in their program. What do you think?

It would be extremely helpful to see the financial status (past-due, shut off) in addition to the utility status when using customer search option. This would be most helpful for accounts that have multiple (20+) locations.

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!

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.
