The Maturing Lease update [U1401] is part of the Mature Lease Tracking module, a separately purchased module of LeasePak. The Maturing Lease update [U1401] is used to keep track of leases that are nearing their maturity date, alerting the user to initiate renewal negotiations or facilitate asset disposition.
The Maturing Lease update [U1401] is used in conjunction with the Maturing Lease Module update [U1421MO], the Maturing Lease Portfolio update [U1422], the Maturing Lease User Profile update [U1431], the Maturing Lease Reassignment update [U1411], and assignment of maturing leases during the End of Period process [U0401]. For detailed information on these modules, refer to the appropriate sections in this document.
The Maturing Lease update [U1401] should not be used while End of Period is executing. This is because the End of Period process [U0401] may change information about maturing leases being tracked and those changes would not be reflected in the Maturing Lease update [U1401] used at the same time. All maturing lease clerks must exit the Maturing Lease update [U1401] before End of Period begins executing. They may re-enter this update when the End of Period process is complete.
Before a user can access Maturing Lease Tracking, the user must be set up as a Maturing Lease User through the Maturing Lease User Profile update [U1431].
From the LeasePak main menu, Maturing Lease Tracking can be accessed through the Tracking menu, Maturing Lease option or by entering U1401 into the Fast Menu <F2>.
The Maturing Lease update [U1401] should not be used while End of Period is executing. This is because the End of Period process [U0401] may change information about maturing leases being tracked and those changes would not be reflected in the Maturing Lease update [U1401] used at the same time. All maturing lease clerks must exit the Maturing Lease update [U1401] before End of Period begins executing. They may re-enter this update when the End of Period process is complete.
The Maturing Lease menu contains two options, Lease Summary and Work Schedule.
In addition to the standard mature lease modules and options, other LeasePak updates and reports may be selected from the Maturing Lease Tracking menu bar. When an update or report is selected from Maturing Lease Tracking, the lease and possibly lease and lessee numbers are already known. When such is the case, the applicable updates and reports will skip entry of these numbers and go directly to the update or report. This will provide quick access to other related LeasePak updates and reports.
The Notebook
function may be accessed 3 ways from Maturing Lease tracking - by clicking on
the Notebook
button; through the Options menu, Notebook option; or by pressing <F3>.
When Notebook is selected from Maturing Lease Tracking, new lease-level notes
will default in reference information corresponding to the current Maturing Lease
work schedule item being processed. Creating unprocessed (i.e. - requiring further
action) lease-level notes will add items to the note recipient's Maturing Lease
work schedule. Please refer to Notebook
for more information on the Notebook function.
The Maturing Lease update [U1401] provides a work schedule or list of maturing leases to be processed. The size and content of the work schedule may be determined by the user entering various selection criteria described below.If the user chooses to log out of LeasePak before all leases are processed, the work schedule may be saved and then later restored when the user returns to the Mature Lease Tracking module.
Using the work schedule, the user may select maturing leases to be processed. Once an individual lease has been selected, that maturing lease becomes the "current" lease. Information for that lease is then displayed at the top of the Maturing Lease Main Menu screen. From this menu, various operations and functions may be selected and performed on this lease, without having to re-enter the lease number.
Once the current lease has been processed, the user may select the next maturing lease on the work schedule, or return to the work schedule screen to view and/or select more maturing leases. Refer to screen 2 of the Work Schedule Selection for more detailed information on selecting maturing leases.
When the user first enters Mature Lease Tracking, the Maturing Lease Work Schedule screen is automatically accessed. The Selection Criteria can be used to determine the content of the work schedule. If the maturing lease user chooses to logoff before all leases are processed, the work schedule may be saved and then later restored when the user returns to the Mature Lease Tracking module.
Multiple unprocessed notes for the same lease are grouped into one selection item. The sequence of leases on the work schedule depends on the work schedule sort order, as defined by the Maturing Lease User Profile update [U1431].
Every lease has one specific person designated as its owner, displayed under the INIT column heading. The original owner is the user to whom the lease was assigned by the End of Period process [U0401]. Ownership of the lease may be switched to another maturing lease user with the Maturing Lease Reassignment update [U1411].
Highlight a lease on the work schedule to make it the "current" lease. Selecting Lease Summary from the Maturing Lease menu provides data on the current lease.
The Lease Summary option from the Maturing Lease menu is used to display information for the current lease indicated in the screen header. It is also used to enter information about the lease's assets.
The Maturing Lease Reassignment update [U1411] is part of the Mature Lease Tracking module, a separately purchased module of LeasePak. The update is used to redistribute work among Maturing Lease users. It provides the ability to re-assign leases from one Maturing Lease user to another. The lease will stay with the user to whom it has been manually assigned, unless it is manually reassigned later to another user.
Access to this update should be given through the Security update [U0706] only to Maturing Lease users with supervisory responsibilities. Also, if the ACCESS ALL MATURING LEASE USERS parameter in the Maturing Lease User Profile update [U1431] is not activated, then access to this update will be denied.
Maturing leases are automatically assigned to maturing lease clerks by the End of Period process [U0401]. The number of days before the maturity date, when tracking for maturing leases is initiated, is determined by the DAYS BEFORE MATURITY DATE TO INITIATE TRACKING parameter in the Miscellaneous Customizations option of the Maturing Lease Portfolio update [U1422]. Tracking a maturing lease begins this number of days before its maturity date and continues until the lease is paid off, terminated, extended, etc. If a lease is past its maturity date, it continues to be tracked with a negative number of days past maturity.
When tracking is initiated as described above, the End of Period process [U0401] will choose a Maturing Lease clerk for the lease from a Maturing Lease team. A Maturing Lease team is a group of one or more clerks. Refer to the Team update [U0724] for information on the creation of teams.
The maturing lease's portfolio, company, region, and office are used in determining which Maturing Lease team should be assigned the lease. For a given lease, LeasePak will choose the first team it finds, using the following order:
In other words, if a team is not defined for the lease's office, then the lease's region team will be used if it is defined, etc. If none of the above 4 Maturing Lease teams is defined, the lease will be assigned to the Maturing Lease supervisor. Refer to the Maturing Lease Portfolio update [U1422], the Company update [U0208], the Region update [U0207], and the Office update [U0206] for information on defining a Maturing Lease team for a portfolio, company, region, and office respectively.
Once an appropriate team has been identified, the following rules are used to determine which clerks from that team will be considered eligible (valid) for assignment to the lease.
Once a set of valid Maturing Lease clerks has been determined according to the above rules, the clerk to assign to the lease is selected as follows:
Otherwise, the valid Maturing Lease clerk with the lowest number of leases assigned during this End of Period will be assigned to the lease.
If there are no valid clerks on the Maturing Lease team, the lease will be assigned to the Maturing Lease supervisor. Refer to the Maturing Lease Portfolio update [U1422] for information on identifying the supervisor.
Tracking for maturing leases is triggered by the number of days before the lease's maturity date. This number of days is set by the DAYS BEFORE MATURITY DATE TO INITIATE TRACKING parameter in the Maturing Lease Portfolio update [U1422]. Tracking a maturing lease begins this number of days before its maturity date and continues until the lease is paid off, terminated, extended, etc.
This screen is used to select the maturing leases to be viewed for re-assignment to another Maturing Lease user. Leave all selection criteria blank and click Retrieve to view all maturing leases currently being tracked. If a subset of maturing leases is to be selected, the user may enter a portfolio, company, region, or office. If a specific maturing lease is to be selected, the user may enter the lease number.
This screen may also be used to select a user all of whose leases are to be viewed for re-assignment.
A maximum of 500 accounts may be listed for re-assignment at one time. If more than 500 accounts fall within the selection criteria, a message appears to the effect that only the first 500 accounts selected are displayed.
Field Descriptions
This screen is used to change the assigned maturing lease user for the lease. All leases that meet the selection criteria are displayed. If no criteria were entered, all leases assigned to maturing lease users are displayed.
The list is sorted according to the work schedule sort order established for the maturing lease user on the Maturing Lease User Profile [U1431].
The Maturing Lease Custom General Module update [U1421] is used to add, change, or delete operational parameters for the Mature Lease Tracking module. These parameters affect the entire database (i.e. one set of parameters for all portfolios). Therefore, maturing lease parameters should be established during the LeasePak installation process.
From Updates on the Main Menu, select Tracking Setup, then Maturing Lease Setup. Alternatively, the update may be accessed using the Fast Menu by pressing <F2> and then entering U1421.
This screen is used to enter Maturing Lease parameters.
The Maturing Lease Portfolio update [U1422] is used to establish or change parameters which define and control the functions of the Maturing Lease Tracking [U1401].
Each of the parameters controls a specific function or, in some cases, several functions, of LeasePak. Therefore, caution should be exercised when any change to the parameters is made, both at the initial set-up time and subsequently. Read the detailed descriptions of the parameters in the following section to understand the consequences of a change to a parameter.
This screen appears if the Multi Portfolio Processing module is purchased and if the user's access is not restricted to a specific portfolio. If the Multi Portfolio Processing module is not purchased, the default portfolio '1__' is assumed. If the user has restricted access to a specific portfolio (refer to the Security update [U0706]), the restricted portfolio is assumed.
This screen allows changes to miscellaneous parameters, such as maturing lease supervisor and maturing lease team.
The Maturing Lease User Profile update [U1431] is used in conjunction with the Maturing Lease module, a separately purchased module of LeasePak. The Maturing Lease User Profile update is used to add, change, or delete Maturing Lease users. If the Mature Lease Tracking module is not used, then Maturing Lease users need not be maintained.
The Mature Lease Tracking module requires that Maturing Lease users (also referred to as clerks) be established through this update before accounts may be assigned to them. Before a Maturing Lease user is specified, a LeasePak account and a security record must be established. (The system manager should set up the LeasePak account; the operations supervisor should establish the security record through the Security update [U0706]).
Several of the parameters established for the user through this function dictate the way in which LeasePak restricts the user within the Maturing Lease Tracking [U1401]. For example, a user may be prevented, through this update, from accessing leases assigned to other clerks. These restrictions allow the supervisor to establish each user's function and limitations within the leasing organization.
This update also establishes the way an individual user should progress through the Mature Lease Tracking module. For example, the work schedule sort order entered through this update establishes the order in which the user will see accounts that need to be processed.
The User Profile update [U1431] allows entry of criteria associated with the user which determine if a maturing lease may be assigned to the Maturing Lease user. These criteria are used by the End of Period process [U0401] when assigning maturing leases to clerks. Refer to the Maturing Lease Reassignment [U1411] for a description of how leases are assigned to Maturing Lease clerks during End of Period.
This screen is used to select whether to add, change or delete a maturing lease user profile. Click Add to create a new profile. Select an existing profile from the menu, then click Change to modify it or Delete to remove it.
When adding a new maturing lease user, this screen is used to select a LeasePak user to create a profile for and, if desired, to select a default maturing lease user.
Fields used to add or change a maturing lease user profile are arranged onto 6 tabs. Only Account Assignment and Work Schedule actually affect the maturing lease user in LeasePak at this time. For a new profile, check all 6 to make sure any defaulted information is accurate for the new user.
The Signature tab is used to input the collector's name, title, phone, fax, and e-mail information. This information may be used in conjuction with Document Generation or with user's own custom letter-generating software.
The Account Assignment tab controls which leases will be assigned to the user's work schedule.
If the short name begins with a number, then the letter which begins the number
is used. For example, F is used for names beginning with 4.
If the lessee's
short name does not begin with a letter or a number, then the letter X will be
used.
The Work Schedule tab establishes priorities for displaying the leases assigned to the maturing lease user.
The Menu tab currently has no function in LeasePak. It may be ignored.
The Letter tab has no current function in LeasePak and may be left blank.
The User Defined tab is also not currently part of LeasePak functionality and may be left blank.
After necessary changes have been entered on all screens, click on Save.
From the Maturing Lease User Profile menu, clicking Delete will remove the selected maturing lease user.
The above message appears to confirm or cancel the deletion.
A maturing lease user may not be deleted if there are any accounts still assigned to that user. Reassign the accounts to another user using the Maturing Lease Reassignment update [U1411].
