Event 24, Specialty Request Letter

Previous pageReturn to chapter overviewNext page  Print this Topic

This is reserved for letters that are a special request of your institution. More than one letter per loan can be generated on the same day.

 

Note: An afterhours update option is available (Remove SAC Action Code 74 and Date, code 95) that automatically removes Action Code 74 when an account is more than 20 days past the next due date (non-graded). The account essentially loses the same-as-cash offer. The system also sets up the Specialty Request Letter record (event 24) on the account, so you can generate event letter 24 for this account and send account owners a letter notifying them of the action. Additionally, if institution option LSAC is set, then the system does not remove Action Code 74 unless the loan is both 20 days past the next due date and the account has had at least one late charge (LNLTNO is not equal to 0).

 

See the PAYOFF AMOUNT field below for special options affecting this event letter.

Description

APPOINTMENT_DATE

EVACDT

This is the delinquency letter appointment date. This field is entered when you select Action Code 210 on the Actions, Holds, Event Letters screen. This is the date the account owners should have contacted you or made a payment before action is taken. See the Event 23 Sample Letters for an example of how to use this field in your event letters.

APPOINTMENT_TIME

EVTIME

This is the delinquency letter appointment time. This field is entered when you select Action Code 211 on the Actions, Holds, Event Letters screen. The delinquency letter time is entered in the corresponding action date field as 01-HH-MM, where 01 is the month (e.g., 01=January, 02=February, 03=March, etc.), HH = hours, and MM = minutes, used in event 23 and 24 only).

DATE LAST PAID

LNDTLP

This field shows the date that the last payment was posted. If a payment reversal (tran code 608) occurs, the system will look in the collection history for the previous last payment date and enter that date in this field. The last payment date is reported to the credit bureau. It is updated as payment activity occurs on the loan.

 

This is pulled from the Last Payment Date field (LNDTLP), which is found in the Payment Information field group on the Loans > Account Information > Account Detail screen > Payment Detail tab.

 

Note: The loan transaction 590 (Charge LIP Interest to LIP Undisbursed Balance) also updates the date of last payment. However, the reversal of this transaction will not change the last payment date.

 

The results for this field are a numeric date, as in:

 

05-25-2015

This field is identical to the one above, but the results will be alphanumeric, as in:

DELINQUENCY DEMAND DAYS

Example: Loan type 12 is set up for 10 demand days. The night the event letter is created, the program adds 10 days to the current run date and displays that date here.

FHA/VA ACCOUNT NUMBER

This is the FHA- or VA-assigned number for this loan.

 

Note: The institution’s FHA servicer number is set up with institution option H FHAC. If you are servicing FHA loans, this must be set up in order for it to appear on the event letter. If you would like this option, please send in a work order.
