For more information, see the Payment Processing chapter.

Charging off an account refers to when a lender decides to take a loss on an account, signalling that attempts to recover the Loan have failed. In calculating a charge off, the system considers the total compensation amount (up front compensation plus remaining compensation amount).

The date of the charge off appears on Account Details screen in Activity section’s Chargeoff Dt field.

However, you can select the ‘Do Not Auto Charge Off’ condition to ignore few account conditions, for the charge-off processing batch job. When an account is marked with the condition DO NOT CHARGE OFF, then batch job will not pick the account for charge off processing.

A.1.16 Active Military Duty

The Servicemembers Civil Relief Act of 2003 (SCRA), formerly known as the Soldiers and Sailors Civil Relief Act of 1940 (SSCRA), is a federal law that gives military members some important rights as they enter active duty military service. The law is designed for active duty military personnel and reservists (and their spouse -- if applicable for joint credit accounts) to receive, as a result of military service economic hardship(s), an interest rate reduction (currently at 6.000%) for certain consumer and mortgage-related debt that was incurred prior to entering military service, for the period of time that the servicemember is on active duty. Under the law, the term’s interest includes service charges, renewal charges, fees, or any other charges (except bona fide insurance) with respect to an obligation or liability. The law also provides protection against certain legal actions during the term of active duty military service. The SCRA function is currently available in the system for simple interest Loan.

Any account that has been identified under SCRA requirements as eligible for the allowable benefits of active military duty for its primary borrower/spouse will have a new interest rate calculation based upon the 6.000% limit set by the SCRA. However, this change is subject to exception in case of accounts that already have an interest rate less than 6.000%. In such cases, the original interest rate that is less than 6.000% will continue.
