Adding Steps

As it has been mentioned before, each repayment mode is a set of steps performed with the transferred amount.

...

We’ve strived to make the step names rather simple and easy to understand, however, shoudl should there be a doubt, select the step in the drop-down and its detailed description will appera appear below it.

...


If this is the step you need, click the “Add step” button, and the step will be added to the list

...

When there is more than one step in the list, you can use the up and down arrows to move the steps around the list.

The logic of the Mode Steps Performance

The system performs or attempts to perform repayment and recalculation steps in the order they are placed on the list. We can virtually divide the steps into:

  • Repayment Steps: related directly to the usage of the transferred payment

  • Recalculation Steps: related to recaculation recalculation of the loan fees, interest and principal in consideration of the previous repayment steps.

The system performs repayment steps in the order of their placement on the list until whole payment amount is used up, i.e.

  1. If the amount is not enough to cover the step in full, it covers it in part and moves on to perform the remaining recalculation steps in the corresponding order. It does not perform any other repayment steps.

  2. If the amount is enough to cover the steps in full, the system covers the step, and

    1. If the next step is a repayment step, the system tries to perform it (as in 1)

    2. If the next step is a recalculation step, the system performs it and moves on to the next step

The system continues, until the repayment amount is used up and all recalculation steps are performed.
