[(Fund*Price– (Unfunded + Commitment Reduction)*(1–Price)] as of T+20 (Expected Settlement Date)
Rule-25-factor on T+20 = -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
[(Fund*Price– (Unfunded + Commitment Reduction.)*(1–Price)] as of Trade Date
[(Fund*Price– (Unfunded + Commitment Reduction.)*(1–Price)] as of T+21
Rule-25-factor on T+21 = -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
[(Fund*Price– (Unfunded + Commitment Reduction.)*(1–Price)] as of Trade Date

This section contains the following topics:
Control accounts can be a GL or a customer account, which is used to distinguish the trade date and settlement date balances for a given SLT trade. The following table gives a brief description of the various control accounts:
Control Account |
Description |
Control Account#1 |
Account to track the latest trade portion of funded amount |
Control Account#2 |
Account to track the trade portion of funded amount as of settlement date |
Control Account#3 |
Account to track the Premium/Discount and PNL amount as of trade date |
Control Account#4 |
Account to track the Premium/Discount and PNL amount as of settlement date |
In SLT module, accounting entries are defined for the following products with control accounts:
System does a zero-based computation to arrive at the trade portion of funded and unfunded amount. System also computes the premium discount and PNL amount. Based on the accounting setup, system appropriately posts the accounting entries to the control accounts for SLT trades and origination contracts. For zero-based computation, system considers the latest trade amount from SLT as well as the funded and unfunded amount as on the application date for the CUSIP from agency.
Funded and unfunded percentage is calculated as follows:
Note
System posts the accounting entries in SLT module as follows:
The SLT Batch for trade date accounting is used to track the funded or unfunded balance change for the associated CUSIP in the agency module. System computes the funded and unfunded percentage based on funded and unfunded balance from agency as of application date and applies the percentage on the latest trade amount in SLT to arrive at the trade portion of the funded and unfunded amount.
The computed trade portion of funded and unfunded balances is compared with the funded and unfunded balances already posted for the SLT trades. If there is any difference, then system posts the additional entries for the funded and unfunded amount as follows:
Trade settlement flowing to origination module through STP processing impacts the control accounts instead of the inventory accounts for the loan contracts
You should manually maintain the appropriate control account (Control Account#2) at the origination loan product level so that the accounting entries are posted at control account 2 during trade settlement which flows to origination module through STP.
All the independent loan activities manually performed by a user such as new loan booking, value dated amendment for loan principal increase/decrease, loan payment and all the corresponding reversal events will post the accounting entries at control account 2, based on the product accounting setup.
