The Online Activity page contains all transactions initiated via electronic banking but does not include transactions made via other means, like ATM or debit/credit card transactions. This page also shows the status of each electronic transaction as it moves from a drafted status to approved, then processed.

In contrast, the transactions listed on the Account Details page are a record of pending and cleared transactions against your account from all sources, not just electronic banking. Additionally, account history does not include transactions that have been drafted/approved/canceled via electronic banking, but only those that have already cleared or will clear your account the next processing day.


The Online Activity archives all online banking transactions. This can include – but isn’t limited to – a funds transfer, recurring funds transfers, wires, ACH transactions, and external transfers.

The Account level items are associated with all transactions which align to the account, such as:

  • ATM Debits
  • ATM Credits
  • Transaction at a Branch
  • Checks Deposited (including images)
  • Debits to fund an internal transfer
  • Payroll Deposits

To create an alert, select Alerts & Settings from the main menu, then select Alerts and select the type of alert you would like to create or edit.

Each type of alert (Account, History, Online Transactions and Reminder) can be customized with the delivery frequencies that meet your need.


If you believe you did not receive an alert email, please check your message mailbox under the Messages menu to confirm receipt. If you received your secure message, but not your email, check your junk email folder first. If your alert is delivered as junk mail, configure your junk mail settings to allow email from our email address. If there is no alert in your online secure mailbox, it was not sent. Confirm that the alert is enabled by selecting Alerts & Settings from the main menu and then selecting Alerts. If you still believe you did not receive an alert, contact 866.839.5869, Mon – Fri 7 am – 10 pm, Sat 8:30 am – 5 pm.

The app will tell you that the deposit was submitted. However, that doesn't mean that the deposit is complete. The check may be rejected based on limit, quality of image, or other reasons dependent upon the situation. You should hold on to the check until you see it posted on your statement.
