Manual Transfer of Deposit Amount to Loan Account
Overview
With the Mercury release, a borrower can transfer the amount from a deposit account to a loan account. Upon doing so, the payment toward the loan is decreased, and the contract is rescheduled. The amount in the deposit accounts also gets decreased. The amount from the deposit account is transferred in the ascending order (1 > 2 > 3) as per the priority of the deposit accounts. The deposit account having priority as Null is not considered while transferring the amount to the loan account.
Key Concepts
Reschedule
If the amount transferred from the deposit account is more than the Excess Threshold % for Reschedule specified during the creation of the lending product, the loan is automatically rescheduled. No job is needed to run to reschedule the loan.
Reversal
When the LPT of type Internal Transfer is reversed, the amount deposited in the loan account is reversed and is deposited to the deposit account from which it is deducted.
Backdated Payment
-
Backdated payment is supported till the latest Deposit Adjustment Date or the latest Deposit to Loan Transfer Date. If the Transaction Date is less than the latest Deposit Adjustment Date or the latest Deposit to Loan Transfer Date, the system throws an error.
Example 1: On March 1, 2013, a contract is created with the deposit account. On April 3, 2013, an amount of $100 is transferred from the deposit account to the loan account. On April 8, 2013, an amount of $1,000 is deposited to the deposit account. So, the latest Deposit Adjustment Date is April 8, 2013.If the Transaction Date is less than April 8, 2013, then the system throws an error.
Example 2:
On March 1, 2013, a contract is created with the deposit account.On April 3, 2013, an amount of $100 is transferred from the deposit account to the loan account. So, the latest Deposit to Loan Transfer Date is April 3, 2013.If the Transaction Date is less than April 3, 2013, then the system throws an error.
Adjust Deposit to Payoff Flag
If this flag is enabled, the status of the loan changes to Active - Mark for Closure upon making the LPT transaction of the first billing amount.
Error Scenarios
The following are the scenarios when the system throws an error:
