How to make adjustments for loan account

Sometimes errors occur when payments for a loan are recorded. If you need to cancel the full amount of the last repayment, you can do this by making an "adjustment." If you need to cancel several repayments, you must cancel each one separately.

When you have made an adjustment, Mifos divides the canceled payment into principal, interest, and fees, and makes adjustments in each of these categories to the total amount still due for the loan.

1.                  Click on Apply adjustment  in Account transaction menu.

Note: If no payments have been made up to the present for this loan, this button does not appears.

1.                  When you are satisfied with all changes, click Submit.

Note the following:

• In addition to the penalty calculated for delayed repayment, the user can apply a "Misc penalty" amount to the account. If a Misc Penalty amount is applied to the account, the same will be included in the next payment due for the account.
• If the penalty rate is changed in between two payments, the old penalty rate should be taken for calculation until the date the change was made.
• A penalty is not calculated until the day after the due date.
