AUTO PAY WITHDRAW ON FINAL & WAITING STATUS
Would like for all customers regardless of status to be pulled into auto pay for ACH or Credit card. Rental properties/landlord accounts generate adjustments and final bill customers do not pull to withdraw final billing statements. Over 1/2 of accounts that are final bill have to be moved back into a 'current status' in order to run auto pay to pull final bill balance.

Add Notification Options to Backflow Testing Schedule Report
Add a notification toggle for options to send eMail/IVR/SMS notifications to the Backflow Testing Schedule Report, modeled after the Emergency Contact Report. This enhancement would enable utilities to send electronic notifications and/or reminder notifications for device testing when test are upcoming, due, or past due. This would aid in improving communication and compliance with customers.

Shut off letter
I would like to mail/ email shut off letters the property owner. I only have the option for customer or contacts. That would mean I would have to enter the property owner as a contact too (double entry).
Also, I would like the entry of a new contact to be less steps. If they have a customer number we should be able to enter that.4 votes -

Show the 12 month customer average on the account.
Most all utilities have an average available on customer accounts and on customer bills. The average can help customers compare their previous usages and allow us to share the info quickly without running a report for an individual customer.

Easily Add Email Address to Account
When emailing a statement/receipt from the history tab of the ACP the email address populates if we have one saved for that customer. If not, the user has the option to type in the email address. Please consider adding a check box that would allow the user to save the email address to the account that they type in. See image attached.

Transfers
When completing a property transfer with an account that has a prior balance, there should be an option to put the due date of the charges like in CBSW. This is causing our penalties to be out of balance and we are having to make adjustments to the accounts.

Have the Capability of Editing the Read Type on the Customer Control Panel Level
In UMS you're able to edit the Read type by going to Location > Manage Installations > On the meter click 'Edit Item' > Meter > Select your Register > Change Read Type there
In UB4 Go to Devices > Search for Meter > click on Meter > Make the Changes there
That process is fine, however we would like to be able to change the Read Type in the Control Panel based level also.

Automations
CS Week 2024: Larger utilities will require more automations in general, however the most common request here was involving the delinquency/shutoff process. A common call out was creating a workflow that would automatically notify customers x days in advance of receiving a penalty or shutoff without the utility manually generating these notices. I understand that any automation surrounding shutoffs could a bit scary. Perhaps this is an area where a focus group with some larger customers or consultants could help inform this process.

Create Re-read service order
CS Week 2024: When demoing the usage exception reporting in UB4 most utilities asked if they could generate re-read service orders from this report. Ideally users would be able to use the exception type limit options to generate these service orders in MSO or a third-party asset management application in mass. They could also create an individual re-read service order from the “enter reads” screen itself. Closing that service order should update the read in UB4.

Scroll through Review Calculations and see history and notes
It would be better if you could scroll through review calculations instead of going through 100+ pages. I have over 100 pages to review and it is hard to pick up on error. Also when clicking on an account you can access the history and notes for the account.

Process Delinquencies
When processing delinquencies, it would be nice to be able to export an excel spreadsheet like we did in CBSW. We had the option to "export grid contents to CSV." We used this a lot when reviewing delinquencies balances and making sure everything was posted. Now, we have to print the register report in UB4 and can take hours to compare our lists to make sure everything is being posted. Also, we were previously able to print just the review transactions so there were less pages, but now it won't let you sort by location number when you print, it…

Automatic Notes on Account
Account notes are automatically generated any time a modification is made to the account: phone number change, last name change, billing address change. It would also be beneficial to have an automatic note if a notification has been given, such as any IVR/text notifications for delinquencies and shut offs.

Adjustment wizard enhancement
We would like the ability to make adjustments to multiple rates within one adjustment transaction. I may make an adjustment but adjust water, sewer, & tax all in one adjustment. Using the wizard would put those into 3 different transactions when it really could be solved in one transaction.

Prenote Transactions
When processing a prenote transaction for autopayments, we need the ability to see the accounts that are being processed like it was in CBSW. With it being a $0 transaction, nothing is showing on the screen when you process and often times we need to delete a record before it goes to the bank. We also printed the report to have on file to show that the prenote transaction was run and we cannot do this with it not showing up in UB4.

Configurable Control Panel
CS Week 2024: - Several of the largest utilities we spoke with suggested that the control panel itself be configurable based on user role. This includes the ability to hide any tab along with customizable widgets along the top of the screen where the customer and location cards are located.
