13.2 Uncollected Funds Release

This topic describes the systematic instructions to view or release uncollected funds on a customer account.

Uncollected funds are funds that become available to the customer for withdrawal after a specified time interval. The availability information is maintained for each kind of transaction at the Bank, represented by transaction codes. The Bank can release uncollected funds before the value date is reached based on the customer request. This screen displays a summary of all uncollected funds, available dates, and the cumulative amount present against a customer's account.
  1. On the Homepage, from Account Services, under Inquiry, click Uncollected Funds Release, or specify the Uncollected Funds Release in the Search icon bar.
    Uncollected Funds Releasescreen is displayed.

    Field Description
    Account Number Enter the Account Number or click the search icon to view the Account Number pop-up window. By default, this window lists all the Account Numbers present in the system. You can search for a specific Account Number by providing Customer ID, Account Number, or Account Name and click on the Fetch button.
    Account Name Account Name is displayed by default based on the account selected.
    Total Uncollected Funds Total Uncollected Funds displays the cumulative amount of all uncollected funds across business dates.
    Funds Available Date The date when the funds become available to the account holder for use is displayed.
    Amount The system displays the transaction amount.
    Reference Number The system displays the reference number.
    Action By default, the actions field is displayed as Release to release the funds immediately to the account. The system displays the following actions:
    • Release
    • Unrelease

    Click on the Release button to release and the entire row gets blurred. Once Release is clicked, you have the option of reversing this action before submitting the transaction for approval.

    Once the Release action is performed, the system automatically updates the Release action to Unreleased action.

    Note:

    Only one button (or hyperlink) is displayed.
  4. When multiple uncollected fund records are released for an account and subsequently submitted for authorization, the authorizer has to either authorize or decline all transactions at once. The system does not provide the option of partially authorizing a few transactions and declining others.
    If the authorizer declines a transaction and is deleted by the initiator, the status of uncollected funds will remain unchanged. In such a case, the funds are automatically released to the account on the Funds available date.
