Field Descriptions

• TARGET PRINCIPAL BALANCES USED:
  If the Loan Accounting module is used, check the box if target principal balances should be established for interest bearing loans. Otherwise, uncheck the box. Target principal balances are used by the Cycle Accrual update to compare the net outstanding balance (after the accrual) with a target principal level. If the net outstanding balance is greater than the target principal level, a message is written to the Accrual Message report [U0301D].
  
  This field is accessible only if the Loan Accounting module has been purchased.

• LEASE DISCOUNTING USED:
  Check this box if the Lease Discounting module is used for this portfolio; otherwise, uncheck the box.

Bowfront VAT is not compatible with Lease Discounting. If the UPFRONT TAX switch is selected on the New Lease screen of [U0212], the LEASE DISCOUNTING USED switch must be unchecked.

If Lease Discounting is used, then leases associated with the portfolio will not be allowed in the Suspended Earnings [U0115] option. If leases in the portfolio are suspended, LeasePak will not allow the switch to be selected.

The following is a list of general ledger names for suspended transactions and suggested names for lease discounting:

  This field is accessible only if the Lease Discounting module has been purchased and lease discounting is used in the portfolio.

• NET COST CALC METHOD (A/C)
  The Net Cost of the discounted lease may be calculated in two ways. If an A is entered the formula is as follows: Original Acq Cost - Down Pymt - Earned Income. When this switch is set to C, the calculation will be: Contract Rec - Unearned Income. See the Lease Discounting update [U0123] for more information on this calculation.
  
  This field is accessible only if the Lease Discounting module has been purchased and lease discounting is used in the portfolio.

• PROPERTY TAX DESCRIPTION CODE
  Check this box if the Property Tax Description code is used for this portfolio; otherwise, uncheck the box.
  
  This field is accessible only if Property Tax Description module has been purchased.

• ESTIMATED PROPERTY TAX DESCRIPTION CODE
  Check this box if the Estimated Property Tax Description code is used for this portfolio; otherwise, clear the box. This custom code is set up to track estimated property tax in the same manner as the actual property tax.
  
  This custom code is renamed from the Federal Highway Use Tax (FHUT) assessment code. If the estimated property tax description code is used, FHUT will not be used.
  
  This field is accessible only if Property Tax Description module has been purchased.

• ACH PRENOTE USED
  Check this box if the PAP/Preauthorize Pmts module is purchased and Prenotifications are used. Otherwise, clear the box.

• PRENOTE CCD
  In the U.S. PAP/ACH payments are coded CCD, as opposed to PPD. Check this box if Prenotifications should be used to CCD Standard Entry Class Code. Otherwise, clear the box.

• LEASE EXTENSION INCOME BASIS (A/C)
  Enter A for Accrual or C for Cash. This value will be used as the default on Lease Extension [U0108]. It may be overridden for an individual lease, if desired.
  
  With the A-accrual option, as lease payments are billed and accrued after the lease has been extended, unguaranteed residual is reduced to zero, then residual income is recognized.
  
  When this field is set to A, LeasePak will allow Lease Extensions [U0108], on leases with the OPR methods, to recognize income on a cash basis. When the OPR is entered in the Extension Method field.
  
  With the cash option, residual reduction and residual income are not recognized until cash has actually been received and applied to an open invoice.
