  2. To capture a new facility, click New from the menu.

    Entering the Facility Details

    You can choose to enter the details of a facility either by:
    • Selecting a template that has been created earlier. If you do so, the details that have been stored in the template are displayed for the facility. You can change the values in any of the fields except the following:
      • Product
      • Contract Reference Number
    • Copying an existing facility and changing only the details that are different for the facility you are entering.
    • Using your keyboard and the option-lists that are provided at the various fields, to enter the details of the facility afresh.

    Using a Template to enter a Facility

    A template is a sample borrower facility, with details similar to that of many contracts under a category or involving a particular facility product. When a template is created, it can be reused while entering other contracts and only those options specific to the contract need to be changed. Therefore, the process of specifying all the details for a contract is faster and easier.

    To associate a template, you have to select the ‘Template’ from the option list. The details that have been stored for the template are displayed. A new reference number is automatically generated for the contract. After you have changed the values that need to be changed, click ‘Save’ to store the details in the system.
