3)Certificates printing (No records fetched) error in DOP Finacle

  1. In DOP we have two types of certificates categories at present they are NSC( National Savings Certificate) and KVP ( Kisan Vikas Patra ) 
  2. In DOP Finacle application after issuing the certificates we have to print the certificates compulsarily in order to deduct the stock in the application. 
  3. If anyone forget to print the certificates then in the Finacle application stock will not be deducted hence make a practise to print the certificates immediately after issuing the certificates in order to eradicate the printing issues. 
  4. For printing of certificates in DOP Finacle application the menu option is HDRP (Deposit Receipt Print). 
  5. When we try print the certificates using the menu HDRP sometimes we get an error as "FER000238-No Records were fetched "
The screen shot of the error will appear as mentioned in the below figure 

Solution for the above problem

The above problem can be occurred due to the following below mentioned reasons
By default the account statement option at the opening of certificates will be "R-Deposit Receipt" , but if the user selected the account statement option as "Passbook" then the above mentioned error will occur i.e., the system will throw the menitoned error at the time of printing.Hence kindly invoke the menu CSCACM(Modification after verificaton menu ) and change the account statement option to "R-Deposit Receipt" and verify in the supervisor.For reference find the screen shot mentioned below 
2. If any modification is done for the Certificates accounts before printing then also the system will throw the said error while printing.This can be inquired using the menu HAFI (Audit FIle Inquiry ) by using the following process mentioned below.
Invoke the menu HAFI and enter the following 
  • Enter the A/c ID _______________________
  • Select the Authorized as "Not authorized" as mentioned in the below figure
  • Then click on Go then the system will show the account is modified but not verified.
  • For this then verify the account modification by using the menu CSCACM(Modification after verificaton menu ) and then print the certificates.
If anyone face the problem even after verifiying the above said remedies then we have to escalate the issue to Infosys Helpdesk team for analysis at the background level.

4)Just for Info: Dot Matrix Printer working Procedure

A DOT MATRIX PRINTER, also known as an impact matrix printer, works similar to a ribbon typewriter where pressure is applied to an ink source, an ink-soaked cloth ribbon in this case, onto the paper to leave an imprint. The ink transfers to the paper as a dot which combines to form recognizable characters.



Dot Matrix printers typically handle tractor-feed paper
There are several printer technologies used in today's home, office and banking printers. Dot matrix printers, known also as impact printers, represent the oldest printing technology, are still the widespread today, grace of it's best cost per page ratio. Dot matrix printers are divided on two main groups: serial dot matrix printers and line dot matrix printers (or simply line printers). In serial dot matrix printers the characters are formed by the print head (or printhead). Such a print head has a number of print wires (pins) arranged in vertical columns and electro-magnetic mechanism able to shoot these wires.

As the printer head moves in horizontal direction, the printhead controller sends electrical signals which forces the appropriate wires to strike against the inked ribbon, making dots on the paper and forming the desired characters. The most commonly used printer heads has 9 print wires in one column (9-pin printheads) or 24 print wires in two columns (24-pin printheads), for better print quality. In some heavy-duty dot matrix printers there are also used 18 wire print heads (18-pin printheads) which have 2 columns, 9 wires in each.

5)IndiaPost inks deal to issue 1.5 crore debit cards


MUMBAI: IndiaPost will soon issue debit cards to its 1.5 crore account holders with the Department of Post signing a Rs 30 crore deal with CMS Info System to supply Rupay enabled cards. The Department of Post (DOP) has over 10 crore account holders in India, and has already begun deploying ATMs across the country in aphased manner.

The personalized debit cards for DOP will be issued on the NPCI platform and their usage would initially only be on ATMs installed at DOP branches, as a closed loop environment. The cards can later be used on other ATMs with Rupay affiliation. These cards will initially be of the magstripe variant, with the option of EMV being available to the account holders after a set period of time.

"This deal will power issuance of personalized cards to complement IndiaPost'sATM deployment plans over a three-year period. We expect this to benefit people using teller facilities at the branches, as they can now begin to use these cards for more convenient cash withdrawals," said Mokam Singh Matta, Head of Card Business, CMS Info System. In addition to financial cards, CMS also personalizes Smart Cards which are being increasingly used in large scale government projects, including National ID, Rashtriya Swasthya Bima Yojana (RSBY), Mahatma Gandhi National Rural Employment Guarantee Act (MNREGA) and Employee's State Insurance Corporation (ESIC). Some of these form a critical backbone for financial inclusion projects in the country, he said.

Revision of classification cities for the purpose of House Rent Allowance and Transport Allowance to Central Government employees

Revision of classification cities for the purpose of grant of House Rent Allowance and Transport Allowance to Central Government employees

Revision of the classification/upgradation certain cities/towns on the basis of Census-2011 for the purpose of grant of House Rent Allowance and Transport Allowance to Central Government employees

The Union Cabinet, chaired by the Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi, has given its approval to the proposal of the Ministry of Finance, Department of Expenditure for reclassification/upgradation of certain cities/towns on the basis of Census-2011, for the purpose of grant of House Rent Allowance (HRA) and Transport Allowance to Central Government employees.


On the basis of the final population figures of Census-2011, two cities have qualified for being upgraded from ‘Y’ class to ‘X’ class and 21 cities have qualified for being upgraded from ‘Z’ to ‘Y’ class for the purpose of HRA. Six cities have qualified for being upgraded from “Other Places” to specified higher class for the purpose of Transport Allowance.

The revised classification of cities shall take effect from 01.04.2014. The impact on the exchequer on account of upgradation of 29 cities, would be approx. Rs.128 crore for the year 2014-15.

Background: HRA and Transport Allowance are admissible to Central Government employees depending upon employees’ Basic Pay (including NPA where applicable)/Grade Pay and the classification of the city/town where they are posted. The existing classification of cities/towns in different classes viz. ‘X’, ‘Y’ and ‘Z’ for the purpose of HRA and 13 specified cities classified earlier as ‘A-1’/ ‘A’ and “Other Places” for the purpose of Transport Allowance, is as per the criterion recommended by the 6th Central Pay Commission. The existing qualifying limits of population for classification for HRA purpose is 50 lakhs & above for ‘X’, 5 – 50 lakhs for ‘Y’ and below 5 lakhs for ‘Z’ class city. Transport allowance is payable at ‘higher rates’ in 13 specified cities classified earlier as ‘A-1′ / ‘A’ (that is those cities having population of 20 lakhs & above) and at ‘lower rates’ in all other places.

The classification of cities/towns for this purpose is revised on the basis of their population as reflected in the decennial census report. The existing classification of various cities/towns is based on 2001 Census figures. The criterion of population for this purpose has been followed as recommended by the Central Pay Commissions.

Speed post faster, more reliable than private couriers: CAG


Should we depend on private courier services? A Comptroller and Auditor General (CAG) study has found private couriers deliver only 90% of letters compared to 99% by speed post.

In major cities, the performance of speed post is faster and more reliable. The postal service delivers 99% of letters through speed post within 1-9 days as compared to 92% by private courier services that take up to 10 days.

At the local level, the delivery by speed post is 98% compared to 93% by courier services. While the time taken by speed post is 1-11 days at local level, it is 1-12 days in case of private couriers.

In a report on department of posts, tabled in Parliament recently, the official auditor has said the performance of speed post has been better not only at local level and in major cities, but it is the only reliable service at the tehsil and village level.

To compare the performance and quality of speed post with private courier agencies for delivery of mails, a test check was conducted by CAG in eight postal circles -- Gujarat, Maharashtra, Rajasthan, Tamil Nadu, Delhi, Andhra Pradesh, Uttar Pradesh and Madhya Pradesh. Checks were conducted by posting hundreds of letters.



At the tehsil level only speed post could reach 100% addressees that too within 1-7 days while private couriers could deliver only 83% letters and time ranged from 1-23 days.

"Based on the results, it could be concluded that the speed post service of the department of posts (DoP) was better than the services provided by the private couriers," the auditor said.

Speed post was introduced in 1986 to provide a faster and time-bound mail delivery service in major cities. However, due to late delivery of mails people had stopped relying on the department. But the auditor says the perception is wrong and speed post still remains most reliable and account for more than 10% of the total revenue of the DoP.


In the test check, the auditor had posted 284 letters by speed post and 287 by different private couriers. The performance was judged based on the number of letters sent, letters actually delivered, and time taken for delivery of test letters.

सातवाँ वेतन आयोग - वया सही में केंद्गीय कर्मचारी होंगे मालामाल या फिर ....

नयी दिल्ली: - इस समय सोशल साइटों पर सातवें वेतन आयोग के संभावित वेतनमान से संबंधित एक टेबल भी खूब शेयर किया जा रहे है जिसमें छठे वेतन आयोग का वेतनमान सातवें वेतन आयोग के संभावित वेतनमान की तुलना है। इस टेबल में जो संभावित वेतनमान दर्शाया जा रहा है, उसके मुताबिक सरकार में सबसे निचले वर्ग के कर्मचारियों (चपरासी/खलासी/माली/चौकीदार आदि) का नौकरी में प्रवेश करते वक्त वेतन अभी के 7000 रुपये से बढ़ कर 21000 रुपये हो जाएगा।  

इसी तरह किरानी का इंट्री वेतन अभीके 11360 रुपये से बढ़ कर 34080 रुपये हो जाएगा मंत्रालय में निदेशक स्तर के अधिकारियों का इंट्री वेतन तो वर्तमान के 46100 रुपये से बढ़ कर सीधे 138300 रुपये पर पहुंच जाएगा। मंत्रालय में सचिव की तो बात ही मत पूछिए। अभी उनका फिक्स वेतन 80000 रुपये होता है जो बढ़ कर 2,40,000 रुपये पर पहुँच जाएगा।  इसी तरह केबिनेट सचिव का वेतन वर्तमान 90,000 रुपये से बढ़ कर 2,70.000 रुपये पर पहुंच जाएगा।  

हालांकि वित्त मंतातय के एक अधिकारी से जब इस पर बात की गई तो उन्होंने इसे भ्रामक करार दिया।  उनके मुताबिक 28 फरवरी 2014 को तो सातवें वेतन आयोग का गठन ही हुआ है और इसे 18 महीने का वक्त दिया गया है।  अभी तो आयोग अपना काम कर ही रहा है । इस तरह की अभी कोई अंतरिम रिपोर्ट नहीं आई है। अब यह क्यासे ही है या सही यह तो आने वाला वक्त ही बताएगा और देखने वाली बात होगी की कर्मी मालामाल होते है या फिर.....
