5 Process a Derivatives Contract
Capture the details of the contract through the Contract Input Details screen. Before we proceed to discuss the details of the Derivatives Contract Input screen, briefly recall the work flow in the Derivatives module.
Maintain the basic information that is necessary for the successful functioning of the module. This information includes the maintenance of:
- Derivative Types
- Bank and Branch Parameter details
- Revaluation details
- Messaging party details
- Counterparty details
- Interest, Tax and Charge class details
The next step in the process is the creation of products for the derivatives module. Products help you group or categorize contracts, which share broad similarities. Associate a derivative type with each of the products that you create. Thus the product inherits all the attributes of the type. Subsequently associate the various interest, charge and tax classes with the product.
Under each product that you define, you can enter specific contracts for this module. By default, a contract inherits the attributes of the product to which it is associated. This means that you do not have to define the attributes that default from the product every time you input a contract involving the product. It is possible to change some of the attributes to suit the product you are defining.
