By britbyrnes|2021-06-28T15:49:44-04:00October 28th, 2020|collection- master, vForum|Comments Off on Change to Interest Calculation in Collection-Master

The Direct Payment interest calculation will be changing in Collection-Master version 9.1E.002.

If interest was paid prior to [2-S-5] Interest Swap program, then the CM EDI instructions to re-activate interest will cause the interest to go negative. In the condition there were no payments to interest prior to the [2-S-5] Interest Swap [...]
