You can reopen a charged-off personal, business, fiduciary, Demand Deposit Account (DDA), or savings account if the client pays the charged-off amount in full. Do not run a ChexSystems inquiry.
Once the account has been paid in full and any funds being held are released, do the following to reopen the account:
- In Xperience > Customer & Account Inquiry
- Search by client Tax ID or SSN.
- Review accounts to ensure all charge-off balances are collected.
- Click the account number for the account.
- Review the account type. Note: Reopened accounts must be placed in a current product type.
- Update the Client Information File (CIF) record with the latest client information.
- Xperience > Silverlake > CIF Menu >Change Customer Information
- To review the account for a current signature card, from the Customer & Account Inquiry tab, click Related Functions > Document/Image Inquiry. Note: If no card is on file or the card needs to be updated, prepare a new signature card for the client and have the client sign it.
- To request the account be reopened and the status updated to active, click CRM to create the following Synapsys Service Event:
- Deposit Services > DS – Reopen Account
- Enter the Account Number
- In the Select Current Product Type field, choose a current product type for the reopened account
- Note: If a client wants to reopen into an Empower Checking Account you DO NOT choose the EP - Empower Checking - you must open a new account for this product type.
- Click Save > Save and Submit Session
- Submit the documents using eSign.
- Place the documents not submitted via eSign with the daily work for imaging following the Document Imaging Procedures.
