This help page contains the following topics:
See Field Descriptions for more information about the fields on this screen.
This screen is used to process bankruptcy related transactions. It is used to establish the bankruptcy, while linking associated borrower(s), account(s), and phone restrictions as specified in the bankruptcy documents.
If multiple individuals are involved in the same bankruptcy filing, you can quickly select the names using the Selection checkbox in the Bankruptcy list view, or by searching to accounts/SSN/EIN in the Case Number search fields. For example, if a husband and wife filed bankruptcy, you could look up the information for the husband and select his applicable accounts, then look up the wife. If she has additional accounts that the husband does not have, and those accounts are involved in the bankruptcy, they too can be selected for bankruptcy.
Certain bankruptcy decisions require creditors to not contact debtors once a bankruptcy occurs. Running the Bankruptcy transaction will automatically flag phone numbers and email accounts as being restricted. See Results of Bankruptcy on Accounts for more information. Additionally, if a bankruptcy is dismissed, withdrawn, discharged, or some other action takes place (see Actions and Dates field group), options are available to unrestrict phone numbers and email addresses.
You can also use this screen to convert bankruptcy chapters if needed, in addition to discharging, withdrawing, reaffirming, and dismissing the bankruptcy. Depending on the transaction you choose to process, features on the screen will be enabled or disabled. For example, if the borrower and your institution reach an agreement that they will continue to pay their loan as long as your institution does not repossess their collateral, you can reaffirm the debt with the new agreements by selecting the Reaffirmation radio button.
An afterhours report (FPSRP208) shows all accounts that have a bankruptcy status (hold code 4 (Chapter 7, 11, 12) or 5 (Chapter 13)).
Running any transactions on this screen also affects the Consumer Information Indicator reported to credit repositories at monthend. See the Consumer Information Indicator field for more information.
See the Security Setup topic for security setup options that may affect users accessing this screen.

As the bankruptcy proceedings move along, additional transactions will need to take place on the account. When your institution receives notices that the bankruptcy is dismissed, the chapter filing has changed, or it has been discharged by a Bankruptcy Court, then you will run one of those transactions listed in the Actions and Dates field group.
Additionally, your institution may choose to withdraw the bankruptcy claim or reaffirm the debt. See Reaffirmation and Withdrawn for more information.
Putting an account in bankruptcy affects the credit report sent to the credit repositories each month. For more information on this process, see Reporting an Account in Bankruptcy in the Credit Reporting documentation.
