1) BO Verification not
done in Postman module: In Postman module,Supervisor has to perform
verification of the amount in r/o all the COD articles delivered by the Branch
Post Offices attached to the HO/SO. The BO Verification process will cross
check as to whether the amount of all COD articles delivered by each Branch
Post Office has been credited to the Accounts w.r.t. the BO Summary in Sub
Accounts module. Only such COD aritcle’s amount will be transmitted to ePayment
server.
Solution: A new report
in Postman module is provided in Meghdoot version 7.9.2, which displays all the
COD articles pending in that post office and the reasons for such pendency.
Please check this report to know the date for which BO Verification has to be
done.
BO Verification can be
done at any later date by the Postman Supervisor, by selecting the concerned
Account Date i.e., BO Summary Date.
2) BO Names mis-match
: The names of the Branch Post Offices as appearing in Sub Accounts module and
Postman module should be exactly same. As the BO Verification happens based on
the BO names, the names in both these modules should exactly match. If any mismatch
is there in the names of the Branch Post Offices, then the articles delivered
by such B.O.s will not be transmitted to ePayment Server.
Solution: Please
modify such BO names in Sub Accounts module to exactly match with that
available in Postman module.
3) Non-usage of Sub
Accounts module for generating BO Summary: Using the Sub Accounts module is a
must in all the ePayment Sub Post Offices/Head Post Offices, as the COD amount
will be transmitted only after tallying with the BO Summary figures of each BO
(for the articles delivered through Branch Post Offices)
Solution: Please
ensure that BO transactions for those days are entered in the Sub Accounts
module.
4) Submit Account not
done in Postman module: In Postman module, the Supervisor has to perform Submit
Account for each Postman beat. This process will cross check as to whether the
amount of all COD articles delivered by that beat postman has been credited to
the Treasurer or not. COD delivered data in r/o the beats for which submit
account has been done, will be transmitted to ePayment server for further
transmission to Payment office. It is further to state that Postman module will
not allow to perform day end without completing the Submit Account of all the
beats.
Solution: The case has
to be reported to CEPT for providing suitable solution.
5) Office became
inactive in ePayment: The delivery office might have become inactive in
ePayment server. This may be due to the change of the ePayment communication
machine by the Post Office, for one reason or the other. The ePayment server
will take the data being communicated by the registered communication machine
only. If the earlier registered ePayment communication machine is changed by
the Post Office, then the COD articles delivered by that Post Offices will not
be taken as authenticated by the ePayment Server.
Solution: The
Divisional System Administrator has to re-register the office in ePayment
website using the same machine which has transmitted the COD data. Then the
ePayment server will re-process the data earlier received by it again.
6) Last Call status in
ePayment: Many offices are not running the ePayment Communication application
on daily basis, without which the data will not get transmitted to ePayment
server, even though entire delivery process is completed as per the procedure.
An MIS report viz.,”Offices Not Called” is available in the ePayment Website
which shows the list of Post Offices which have not run the ePayment
communication since last 24 hours. The ePayment Communication application can
be either scheduled OR run manually.
Solution: The ePayment
Communication application need to be scheduled atleast twice a day. The above
mentioned MIS report is available division wise.
7) Non upgradation of
ePayment Software: Some of the offices have not upgraded their ePayment
software to the latest version 7.9.2. Some other offices have upgraded the
ePayment software from the very old version to Version 7.9.1/7.9.2 instead of
upgrading sequentially. Both the above cases may cause problem(s) in using the
options provided in these latest versions including non transmission/non
payment of COD amounts.
Solution: All the
ePayment offices have to upgrade their ePayment software to the latest version
(7.9.2) which is available in CEPT’s ftp website
ftp://cept.gov.in/Meghdoot7/Updates/.
