Participant Query

Participation loans are queried normally, just like other types of loans. Click + next to the loan on the search tree to expand the loan to show its sub-loans.


Clicking on one of the individual participant sub-loans will allow you to view the informational tabs for just that sub-loan.

Main

The Main tab of the query screen for a participant contains the same data as the Main tab for a loan, but many of the parameters (such as data on upcoming payments) are not displayed as they do not apply to a sub-loan.

Rules

Clicking the Rules tab on any participant allows access to the rules for all of the participants on the loan. For each item in the rules, you may set either a percentage or an order hierarchy.


NLS 5.37 and later

The percentage of the amortized fee distributed to participants may be configured with Amortized Fees %. By default 100% is distributed to the primary participant. To edit this value, Setup > Loan Setup > Defaults > Miscellaneous > Amortized Fee Participation Rules must first be enabled.

Example A

If the Principal Advance % rule was set to 80% on participant #1 and 20% on participant #2, and the loan had a principal advance of $1,000,000, the advance would be automatically broken down as $800,000 on participant #1 and $200,000 on participant #2. If order hierarchy were used instead, then the appropriate transaction would go entirely to the first designated participant until that transaction could no longer be applied.

Example B

If the Interest Payment Order rule was set to participant #1 first and participant #2 second, and if participant #1 had an interest balance of $137.72 and participant #2 had an interest balance of $496.34, a payment for $200 would be applied to cover the entire $137.72 on participant #1 and the remaining $62.28 would go to reduce the balance of participant #2 to $434.06.

Comments

The Comments tab, when accessed from a participant, allows access to the loan commenting system and those comments that have been added to that particular participant sub-loan.

The functions of the buttons are:

Add Add This button allows you to log a new comment. The comment will be automatically stamped with the date and time, and your User ID number.
Delete Delete This button will remove the highlighted comment if you have the privilege to delete comments.
Modify Modify This button will allow you to edit an existing comment if you have the privilege to modify comments.
Print This button will print out all of the existing comments on the currently selected contact.
Search This button allows you to search the database comments for key words. The search may include just the currently selected contact, or may search the entire table.
Show Categories This button toggles between show and hide category mode. Using comment categories, the comments may be stored in separate “file folders.”

Transactions

All transactions for a particular participant sub-loan are listed in the Transaction History of that participant. The date and time of the actual moment of transaction entry are recorded along with the user ID. The effective date is the date entered by the user at the time of transaction entry.

When a transaction is reversed, it is not taken off of Transaction History, but a reversing transaction is added. The Transaction History, therefore, will show a complete history of every event that has happened on the sub-loan except for interest accruals, rate changes, and modifications to the loan setup.

The functions of the buttons are:

Hide Reversed Transactions This button will toggle the display to show or hide reversed transactions.
Print This button will print out the full list of the transaction history.
Comments Clicking this button brings up a comments window which will allow you to add comments that are linked directly to individual transactions.
