EXAMPLE SCHEDULE
The schedule below reads as follows- Borrower is making monthly payments, until their May payment. In May, they will pay a new payment amount of $5,000.00 every month until December. Borrower’s payment will be reamortized for their December statement. The new reamortized payment amount will be the same until loan maturity. Only two scheduled changes are present on account.

 

*****PLEASE NOTE*****
If you board an Interest Only payment account and enter their First P&I Date and First P&I Payment Amount in Loan Details, It will create a scheduled transaction in Payments > Schedule Transactions automatically. The First P&I Date and First P&I Payment Amount fields will be hidden once the payment account has been boarded. If you need to go back and edit, you will do this in the Payments > Schedule Transactions grid. You need to enter both First P&I Date and First P&I Payment Amount in order for a schedule transaction to be created. If you only enter First P&I Date and leave First P&I Payment Amount field blank, a scheduled transaction will not be recorded. If you do not know the amount of the P&I payment, then leave First P&I boarding fields blank and add a schedule transaction after payment account boarding.

If there are only two changes per calendar year, then there will only be two transactions in this grid.
4. Once you have your schedule for the calendar year set, click Generate.
5.You will be prompted to confirm again if you want to generate the X amount of transactions. This number will be the number of transactions you have scheduled between the Start and End date of the seasonal schedule. Click Generate.

7. If you made a mistake you can individually X out any record, or use the Mass Delete button
NOTE- if you select Mass Delete a Seasonal Schedule, when adding a new Seasonal Schedule back in, your prior seasonal schedule will be in the grid to edit.
