Credit Memo Personal Discretionary Income (PDI) Updates
Thank you for your patience as VLT corrects issues, and updates what gets merged to rows, when generating the credit memo from Ventures. You can review the mapping of rows from PFS to the Credit Memo PDI section in KB article Credit Memo Personal Discretionary Income (PDI) section mapping to PFS. The following changes have been made:
- INCOME SECTION
- The “Other (see Comments)” income amount is the summation of row types “IRA, Pensions & Annuities” + “Social Security Benefits” + “Installment Sale Income (ongoing)” + “Income - Non Related Entities” + “Other Income” + Any additional “Income” group type rows added in PFS with our custom F/S feature. Previously, this row included an offset of the Rental Income but it now has been removed.
- Total Income will now equal Total Income + [Rental Income + Int + Dep] in the PFS. Previously, this total equaled the Total Income amount in PFS.
- EXPENSE SECTION
- The “Debt - Other existing obligations” expense amount is the summation of “Debt Service” Group Type rows, except “Personal Debt: Residence” row and “Proposed New Debt” row types.
- The “Other (see Comments)” expense amount is the summation of “Expense” Group Type rows, except Living Expenses Row Type.
Credit Memo Project Involving Equipment/Other Personal Property section - Items showing as erroneously Used has been fixed
For “Other” collateral category types, the “Items are: New Used” row in the credit memo will merge blank. Previously, it was incorrectly merging a Used option. Collateral category types are set up by your Site Administrator, so if you have any questions about which collateral types have been assigned “Other” category types please reach out to your Site Administrator.
Custom Financial Statements
Your Site Admins can customize Company Financial Statements Balance Sheet and Income Statement rows, and customize Personal Statement’s Personal Finances and Personal Cash Flow rows. We have also added some exciting analysis features, like Trend Analysis percentages and EBIT/EBITDA calculations, to name a few. Please visit our Custom Financial Statement Hub Page to find a complete overview of what’s new!
