Loan Product Fields—Additional Fields for Loans with Variable Terms based on Loan Cycle
I raised an issue regarding the inconsistent use of terminology (i.e., loan cycle vs borrower cycle).
Multiple variations for a Borrower Cycle can be set up for:
- Principal amounts (minimum, default, maximum)
- Number of Repayments (minimum, default, maximum)
- Interest rate (minimum, default, maximum)
See Loan Product Fields—Additional Fields for Loans with Variable Terms based on Loan Cycle#Examples.
