Setting up payment tolerance
Payment Tolerance is the permissible amount of tolerance provided by a financial institution to clear the bills. Borrowers may request for specific periods of payment tolerance in their contracts. The default payment tolerance rate is specified at the org level. However, you can modify it at the product and contract level.
The org level payment tolerance rate is not displayed in the lending product definition page. You must check this value in the custom settings.
You can define the payment tolerance as a rate or a fixed amount. In addition, you can define it as the minimum or maximum of these two values by selecting the Payment Tolerance Type as Min or Max.
For example,
Tolerance = MIN (10% or 50). If bill amount = 400, tolerance is 40 (minimum of 40 and 50).
If bill amount = 600, tolerance becomes minimum of (60 and 50) = 50.
For information about the impact of payment tolerance on the contract, how it is applied, and steps to modify its value, refer to section Payment Tolerance in the CL Loan User Guide.
