17.2.3.3 Relationship Triggers
There are dependencies built into the tabular structure of this screen. Based on assumptions made in the first two tabs, the remaining two tabs may not be active.
Table 17-2 Relationship Triggers Fields, Values, and Behavior
| Field | Value | Behavior |
|---|---|---|
| Amortization Type Code | Conv. Fixed, Conv Adjust., Adjst/Ng Amrt | Always interest in arrears, therefore, disables Interest Type |
| Amortization Type Code | Conv. Fixed, Rule-of-78's | No repricing occurs, therefore disables the Define Negative Amortization Attributes and enables the Adjustable Rate Attributes tab. In this case, Rate Change Rounding Type, Rate Change Rounding Factor (when there is Rounding), Rate Floor Life, and Rate Cap Life fields will be enabled in the Adjustable Rate Attributes tab. |
| Amortization Type Code | Adjst/Ng Amrt | Enables Negative Amortization Attributes tab |
| Amortization Type Code | Payment Pattern | Enables the Payment Pattern drop list |
| Amortization Type Code | Behavior Pattern | Enables the Behavior Pattern drop list |
| Amortization Type Code | Conv Fixed, Conv Adjust., Level Principal, Non Amortizing | An inflation-Indexed Instrument check box will be enabled |
| Adjustable Type Code | Other Adjustable, Fixed Rate, Floating Rate, or Repricing pattern |
Repricing Frequency is not applicable, or it is defined elsewhere, therefore disables Repricing Frequency and Multiplier. Enables the Adjustable Rate Attributes tab When the Adjustable Type Code is Fixed, the Adjustable Rate Attributes tab is enabled. In this case, Rate Change Rounding Type, Rate Change Rounding Factor (when there is Rounding), Rate Floor Life, and Rate Cap Life fields will be enabled in the Adjustable Rate Attributes tab. |
| Adjustable Type Code | Repricing Pattern | Enables the Repricing Pattern drop list. In addition, several of the repricing attributes are defined elsewhere, therefore they are disabled in this rule. Only periodic increase and decrease, rate change min, and rounding are enabled |
| Repricing Frequency | "0" | No repricing occurs, therefore disables Adjustable Rate Attributes |
| Model with Gross Rates | Off |
Net Margin Flag options are only necessary when modeling with different gross rates and net rates, therefore disables Net Margin Flag.
Note: This is not supported in BSP. |
| Rate Change Rounding Type | "No Rounding" or "Truncate" | Rounding does not apply, therefore disables Rate Change Rounding Percent |
| Currency | Allows display of Interest Rate Codes and Transfer Rate Interest Rate Codes for which the selected currency is the reference currency. In Product Characteristics, Default Currency allows all Interest Rate Codes, regardless of currency |
