Manage Payment Increase Configuration:

The setups for the payment increase configuration for CSV file uploads are also available for the following:

  • Agreement Templates
  • Payment Increase Indexes

System Options

You use the system options to create the business unit for lease creation. It is a prerequisite.

You set up the system options to do the following processes:

  • Capture compliance standards options

  • Capture calculation options

  • Capture auto-numbering options

  • Interest Calculation Method: The interest calculation method is 'Daily Compounding Interest.'

    Lease Accounting converts the periodic interest rate of 5% per annum to the daily compound interest rate. It employs the rate in the PV and Interest Expense calculations. The formula to convert rate is (1+R%) ^ (1/360 or 1/365) - 1.

You can select a custom calculation calendar for daily amortizations or use the GL calendar. Daily amortization only supports the 'Days/Month' proration for the lease.

  • Default Currency Conversion Type: The currency conversion type.

  • Secondary Ledger Name: The name of the secondary ledger.

    Add a secondary ledger only if you need to comply with the secondary accounting standard.

    Note: You don't need to choose a secondary ledger if you don't need to report and account in multiple GAAPs.
