Setting Up the New Indirect Loan

Related Topics

The New Loan - Setup tab establishes a new loan for a member. If the individual receiving the loan is not a credit union member, add the individual as a new member using New Member & Services before completing the New Loan - Setup tab.

To specify a new loan as indirect, select the indirect loan type from the Loan Type drop-down list. The calculated upfront reserve and reserve type from the Calculators - Indirect Truth-In-Lending tab is transferred to the New Loan - Indirect Loan Setup tab. The New Loan - Indirect Loan Setup tab contains the additional indirect lending data for a member loan.

If the reserve type is flat use the flat fee table from the Flat Fee Schedule - Maintenance window, to determine the upfront reserve amount by matching the loan balance with the appropriate range of loan balances in the table.

If the reserve type is split, calculate the upfront reserve using this formula:
