Employer remittances are structured
Portal or file, validate, reconcile, apply to People. Exceptions stay open.
By Need
Dues transparency
Members ask if they are current. The board asks what came in. Trustees ask for the pack. Those three answers should come from one remittance.
Union Software is built for the collective bargaining economy — the local, the unit, the hall, the board — not for an employer HR stack. Transparency here is a trail: remittance, exception, applied dues, standing, count, pack.
How the week runs in the software
Finance & Dues applies remittances. People carries standing. Reports and the counter read the same line. Ledgers stay on authorized roles.
The software answers whether a remittance applied, who is in arrears, what count per capita sits on, and what a member can be told without opening every ledger.
How Union Software helps
Standing is a People field
Voting and the hall read it. It is not a sticky note.
The overview is shareable
Authorized leadership sees cash, dues receivable, payables — not every member line.
Trustees follow the same period
Approvals, receipts, counts.
Members can be told the truth you posted
A notice or a counter answer from the applied remittance — not a guess. This page does not invent a public dues website for every member line. Transparency is explainability with role-based access.
Remittance becomes the member line
The file total matches the bank. Three people do not match. Transparency dies if you apply a clean total over dirty rows.
Open the remittance: employer, period, total, reference.
Match allocations to People; leave exceptions visible.
Reconcile the bank amount to validated rows.
Apply approved dues and show the member line that resulted.

Get StartedQuestions they actually ask
How does “am I current” get answered?
From standing on People after Finance & Dues applies a validated remittance. Not from a side list.
Will every member see every ledger?
No. Role-based access. Transparency means the authorized answer matches the book.
How is per capita counted?
From the same applied membership and dues period. One count, with member lines behind it.
Does the product file LM-2?
No. Use these records as the source for filings you already know.
How does the remittance portal work?
Employers can submit a structured file. You still validate before anything applies to People.
