Introduction
This guide aims to provide information regarding the product configuration using Arrangement
architecture, the lifecycle of a loan to maturity, early settlement, write off and provisioning. The guide
is divided into two main segments, each describing the functionality, parameter set up procedures
and deal processing. The two main segments are;
1. Product Builder
2. Loan operations
MicroBanking Product Builder

Overview
The MicroBanking product builder provides a user-friendly process for defining loan products on the
AA module. It acts as an interface between the user and the AA module so that the user does not
need to understand the complex architecture of AA in order to setup new products. During the
process, the user only needs to setup conditions that are relevant to the business requirement. The
building of a new product is also driven by process workflow, which provides better control over the
process.
The organization of products built using the product builder is derived directly from AA. The products
are organized into product groups, and parent products are used to hold common product conditions
under a named object.
Note that in this release of the MicroBankingSuite, the editing of existing products need to be done
in the AA Product Builder Core application, proofed and published for these to come into effect. A
future release will allow editing to take place on the Product Builder.
First, decisions need to be made as to what steps would be included in a product builder and what
steps need to be done outside of the builder.
Product Setup Outside of the Product Builder (Predefined in the MicroBankingSuite)
1. Creation of Product Groups

2. Creation of Parent Products
3. Configuration of shared conditions
4. Configuration of necessary Group Parent Conditions
These have been predefined and made available for selection while using the product builder to
create child products. Child products inherit properties/conditions from the parent products.
Product Setup Inside of the Product Builder (Defined using the product building wizard)
 Configuration of Child Product Conditions for identified properties

 Creation of the Child (or final) Product
This chapter provides an overview on the various stages of the product builder and the product
conditions that were configured (by us) per product.
As part of the configuration, only the technical or global parameters were included in a parent
product. Since the system does not allow multi-values for the product group field in product creation,
it is not possible to create only one parent product record for all groups. Therefore, one parent
product record shall be created for each product group.
It is possible that a user is using an existing product as a parent (or model) product to a new product,
possibly because one or two product conditions in the new product differ from those in the parent (or
model) product. In this case, all already defined product conditions of the selected parent/model
product are displayed for the user to amend as desired. The product builder creates a unique, new
product out of this, with all product conditions created newly and named differently for the new
product. This is to ensure that when amendments are made in future, they are only made on the
product conditions necessary for each unique product.
The main tables used for product building are;

 EM.PRODUCT.GROUP
 EM. PRODUCT.LOAN
 EM.PRODUCT.PARAMETERS
The MicroBankingSuite is delivered with three sample Loan Product groups. Sample shared
conditions for each product group are also released for reference or use by your institution, if suitable.
The three Loan product groups are;
 Consumer Loans
 Business Loans
 Home Loans
Product configuration workflow

First, and only if necessary, a new inheritance group could be created to identify necessary
components for product building and select those that will be inherited across products.
Next, the selected inheritance components need to be defined for inheritance at product parent level.
The product parent is then created with option to inherit the defined components or to define new
ones at the product level.
The diagram below presents a sample inheritance flow.
The inheritance group Consumer contains two shared conditions groups: Personal and Staff. The
Personal shared conditions group defines two shared conditions for term/amount and principal
interest (please note that the shared conditions are named the same as the shared condition group
itself). Similarly, the Staff shared conditions group defines two shared conditions. The shared
conditions can be inherited by linking them to a product parent on a product group.
The product group ConsumerLoans contains one parent product: PersonalLoans. This parent
product defines that for personal loans, term/amount and principal interest conditions should be
inherited from the linked shared conditions – from Personal shared conditions group.
When defining a new consumer product StudentLoan, using the product builder wizard, and
selecting the product parent as PersonalLoans, the wizard would only ask for definition of conditions
that are not inherited – customer/account, payment schedule, etc. The term/amount and principal
interest conditions would be inherited from the parent. Please note the names of conditions created
for product – they are the same as the product code.
Finally, products are created by creating the product conditions relating to each. The workflow may
be summarised as below;

Inheritance Groups
In the MicroBankingSuite, a sample Inheritance Group known as EM Loans has been defined for
use (if it meets requirements) and to show how to define conditions for inheritance (when necessary).
In this table, we defined the Inheritance Groups under one Group Code:
List the shared conditions associated with the Group Code (used for inheritance) by clicking on the
icon.
The Inheritance Group can also be viewed and amended by clicking on the icon.
The Inheritance Group Details:
Field name Description
Name Name of the inheritance group. In the model, there’s one group called
EmLoans.
Description The description of the inheritance group. This is a text box to facilitate a
complete description as and when required.
Product Line The AA product line the inheritance group is defined for. In the current
release, the product builder works for lending products only, so this is
defaulted to LENDING.
Currency Define the currencies in which your institution will allow loans to be taken
if more than the base currency. These currencies must be available on
the CURRENCY table.
Start Date The start date of this group.
The Shared Conditions:

The shared conditions are grouped under named objects – shared condition groups. Within a
condition group, the selection of the shared conditions to be defined is made.
The shared condition builder workflow is determined by the selection on this screen. When we select
‘Skip’, it means that the user does not wish to define any shared product conditions for the marked
property classes and hence those will be skipped in the workflow. Only items marked as “define” will
be presented in the workflow.
Property Class Property class name as released by Temenos
Property Name Property class instance as defined by MicroBanking team

A free format shared condition group code that is to be linked
Condition Group Code
to the Shared condition builder to determine which stages
(those marked as define) are to be presented in the
workflow.
It is possible to create more than one shared condition
groups by expanding the multi value Icon.
Condition Group Name A brief description of the shared condition group
The AUDIT Version displays audit details such as who was the inputter, who the authoriser, and
so forth, which are not available for entry or editing as they are automatically updated by the system.
Once the record is committed and authorised, the shared conditions group may be used to define
shared conditions for your institution, if necessary.
Shared conditions pre-defined in the MicroBankingSuite

Below are examples of shared conditions built by the MicroBanking team and available for use by
your institution, if they meet business requirements. These can be accessed using
General Menu>>AA Product Builder>>Inheritance Groups or All in One RBHP>>Parameters>>AA
Products>>Product Parameters>>Inheritance Groups.
To access the products associated with the Group Code (used for inheritance), click on the icon.
In building the shared conditions, we defined stages, each with its own activities, these are discussed
below:
Basic Shared Conditions Details

In the Shared Condition Builder tab, the Inheritance Group and Condition Group that will drive the
condition builder workflow is selected:
Inheritance Group This is the ID of the inheritance group. We defined EmLoans.
Condition Group This is the shared condition group code defined within the inheritance
group. We defined Default.
In the Shared Condition Details tab, the client-specific values are defined:
Name Specify the shared conditions name.
Currency Define the currency/currencies for which the shared conditions are
required.
Start Date Define the date on which the shared conditions will become available for
inheritance.
Penalty Interest Parameters
Penalty Selection
Calculate Define whether penalty interest is to be calculated on arrear repayments.
Selection Select an existing penalty condition, or create a new condition.
Condition Name Enter the name of the penalty interest condition. In this example the
condition called OnePercent, which represents 1% pa penalty interest,
would be created.
Basic Details
Interest Type Indicate whether the penalty interest is a fixed rate or linked to a floating
rate index.
Day Basis Define the interest day basis. Options are:

A – 360/360
B – 366/360
C – 366/366
D – 360/366
E – 366/365
F – 360/365
Accrual Rule Define whether penalty interest will be calculated on the actual days in
the period, for example first day, last day as well as the rounding rules.
Fixed Rate
Fixed Rate Specify the fixed interest rate to be applied to penalty interest calculations
Rate Negotiable Indicate whether this rate may be negotiable at arrangement creation
stage.
Floating Rate
Rate Key Define the floating interest rate index key to be used in calculating penalty
interest.
Margin Define the margin to be added/deducted/multiplied to the floating rate if

applicable.
Negotiable Indicate whether this rate may be negotiated at arrangement creation

stage.
Negative Rate Allowed Indicate whether negative penalty interest rate will be permitted.
Settlement Parameters
Payout
Disbursal Category In the event of loans being automatically disbursed to another account
held with your institution, define the category code of that account here.
The system will validate that the borrower has an open/active account of
this category code. This is for automatic disbursement only, where the
borrower does not wish to draw from the loan arrangement itself.
Repayment Collection
Automatic Specify if repayments are to be collected from a designated account on

Repayments the due date.
Automatic Negotiable Indicate whether automatic repayments may be negotiated on

arrangement creation stage.
Repayment Rule Specify how you would like the system to treat funds available in the
repayment account, for example when the account holds an available
balance less than what is to be collected. Options are;
1. Full – The amounts due will be deducted from repayment account
even if the account becomes overdrawn.
2. None – If the repayment account does not hold enough funds to
cover the due amount, settlement will not be attempted.
3. Partial – The repayment amount due will be deducted from the
repayment account only to the extent of the available balance. In
MicroBanking, we defined automatic retrial of settlement where the
system checks during Close of Business and collects additional

funds that become available in the repayment account until the
amount due is fully settled. This is done by the Transaction cycler
function of T24. For further information, please refer to the
Transaction Cycler user guide.
Note: The system does not use blocked Initial deposit amounts for
automatic settlement of loans.
Repayment Rule Indicate whether the rule defined above may be negotiated at
Negotiable arrangement creation stage.
Repayment Category In the event of loans being automatically repaid from another account
held with your institution, define the category code of that account here.
The system will validate that the borrower has an open/active account of
this category code. This is for automatic repayment only, where the
borrower does not wish to deposit to the loan arrangement itself.
Charge Collection
Same Charge Rules Specify if charge collection rules are to be the same as repayment
collection rules, i.e. to be collected from a designated account on the due
date.
Automatic Charges Indicate if charges are to be collected automatically for loan

arrangements created of this product.
Automatic Negotiable Indicate whether the rules defined above may be negotiated at
arrangement creation stage.
Collection Rule Indicate how you would like the system to respond when the amount due
in charges is not available in the designated repayment account on the
due date.
Collection Rule Indicate whether the rule defined above may be negotiated at
Negotiable arrangement creation stage.
Collection Category In the event of charges being automatically collected from another
account held with your institution, define the category code of that
account here. The system will validate that the borrower has an
open/active account of this category code. This is for automatic collection
of charges only, where the borrower does not wish to deposit to the loan
arrangement itself.
Overdue Parameters
Basic Details
Ageing Type Indicate whether overdue processing will follow number of days or
number of missed repayments.
Bill Settlement Indicate whether only bills repaid in full are to be considered as settled.

Age Bills Indicate whether a bill needs to be considered for further aging when it is
deemed to have been settled. For more information, please refer to the
AA Lending user guide.
Grace Period
Grace Days/Bills In the Basic Details, it was decided whether to follow number of days or
number of overdue payments (bills). Indicate here when the bill which is
due is to be moved to grace status.
Enter ‘0’ if Grace period does not apply for your institution.
During grace status penalty interest is accrued but not posted should the
borrower pay before the end of the grace period.
Grace Notice Days How many days after entering grace status until a chaser/advice is to be
sent to the borrower?
Frequency Define how often a chaser/advice is to be sent to the borrower during the
grace status.
Delinquent Period
Delinquent Days/Bills In the Basic Details, it was decided whether to follow number of days or
number of overdue payments (bills). Indicate here when the bill which is
due is to be moved to delinquent status.
Penalty interest accrued is now applied.

is to be sent to the borrower?
Non-Accrual status.
Payoff/Closure Parameters
Payoff Parameters
Payoff Expiry Days Specify the number of days after which a payoff bill expires. A payoff is
executed whenever a client wishes to pay off their loan and close the
contract ahead of the maturity date.
Settle Dues Indicate whether all amounts due prior to the payoff date should be
considered as settled or not.
Please refer to the AA Lending user guide for more information on Payoff
functionality.

Product Groups
Overview
This table is used to create Product Groups under which Products are to be designed. The
MicroBankingSuite is delivered with Three (3) product groups predefined for reference purpose. Your
institution may use these product groups (if they meet requirements) or create new ones based on
your organisation’s loan product requirements.
Access
General Menu>>AA Product Builder>>Product Groups>>New Loan Product Groups or
All in One RBHP>>Parameters>>AA Loans>>Product Parameters>>New Loan Product Group
Procedure
To create a new Product Group
1. Click on the New Loan Product Group icon
2. Enter the group details fields as described below
3. Link the shared conditions (created under inheritance groups) to the respective properties
4. Proof and publish the Group record.
Loan Product Group Details
Name Enter the name of the product group
Description The description of the name above. This is a text box to facilitate a
Product Line Lending Product Line (defined by Temenos Core)
Range start Specify the category code range start for products to be created under
this Product group. For AA Lending, the category range 3101 to 3399 is
available.
Range end Specify the category code range start for products to be created under
this Product group.
Currency Define the currencies in which your institution will allow loans to be taken
for products in this group. These currencies must be available on the
CURRENCY table.
Start Date The start date of the group and related products.
Global Conditions
Global conditions are Group Parent Conditions that apply to all products in the same group and are
unlikely to differ from one product to the other. These are predefined by the MicroBanking team and
should not be amended without exercising due care. No user input is required on Global Conditions
version.
Shared Conditions
In this version, shared condition created using the inheritance group are linked to the properties to
form a second level of parent conditions for the Group. This is done as follows;
1. Select “Inherit” on the stage level for the properties whose conditions are to be inherited.
2. Select the parent condition defined previously, from the lookup list
For all the other items left with the default setting of “Define”, the Product builder workflow will present
the respective stages (input screens) for you to define the product conditions.
Parent Product Code The name of the parent product used for building products with the
shared conditions configured below.
Parent product Name The description of the name above. This is a text box to facilitate a
Note: It is possible to define various product parents with different
inherited conditions or without any inheritance where all product
conditions are to be defined in the product builder. The parent product
code field may be expanded to create an additional parent records.
Stage Level Select Inherit or Define. Where inherit is selected, an existing condition
must be linked on the Parent condition field. No further input required with
“define” selection.
Once the product group record is committed, it needs to be proofed and published before Products
can be created. This is done using the Manage icon available on the list of Product groups.
To proof the Product Group, click the icon and to publish. Global Parent conditions
should be proofed and published first before the Parent conditions.
Building Loan products

Having previously created the Product Group, Group conditions and Parent conditions, the first step
in building the product is to link the product to the respective product group and parent product. This
link to the Parent conditions also establishes the product conditions to be configured using the
product building workflow. These would have been marked as “Define” at Group creation stage.

Months savings account in operation with your institution before being able to
make use of this product. leave blank if not applicable
Categories to be evaluated for savings months are maintained in
General Menu>>AA Product Builder>>Product Builder
Parameters>>Global Product Parameters
Initial Deposit Tab
Currency This is a multi-value field set that allows initial deposit parameters to be
defined for each currency of the product.
Deposit Amount Indicate the amount of savings that a borrower is required to have before
availing a loan under this product.
The system will automatically block the savings value as defined on the
product until the loan is settled, or the block is manually released.
In this release of the system, the block does not reduce in line with the
outstanding (current and overdue) principal, but remains constant until
the loan is settled or the block is manually released.
The block is applied by using the AC.LOCKED.EVENTS functionality.
Please refer to the Accounts user guide for more details.
Categories to be evaluated for initial deposit are maintained in General
Menu>>AA Product Builder>>Product Builder Parameters>>Global
Product Parameters.
Deposit Percentage If the initial deposit should be a percentage of the loan amount applied
for, indicate the rate here.
However, unlike the Deposit Amount field which does not reduce in line
with outstanding (current and overdue) principal balance, the initial
deposit amount blocked based on the percentage entered on this field
will reduce if the field Progressive Release is set to Yes.
Other currencies Specify if accounts with different currency than product currency are
allowed allowed for initial deposit calculation.
Breakage Action Specify the breakage action when initial deposit requirement is not met.
Progressive Release If the deposit amount blocked based on the Deposit Percentage field
above should be released in line with the outstanding (current and
overdue) principal balance, then this field should be set to Yes. For
example, if a loan amount of USD1000 is approved and 10 percent
(USD100) is initially blocked in a customer’s indicated account, the
amount blocked will be automatically reduced to USD90 when the
customer makes a payment of USD100 on the loan thereby reducing
the outstanding balance to USD900. In summary, for this example, the
amount of deposit blocked will be equivalent to 10 percent of the
outstanding balance of the loan at any time during the life of the loan.
Partial Blocking If breakage action is set to override, it is possible to further define

Allowed whether or not partial blocking is allowed. This means that available
funds in the account with the greatest balance are blocked.
Increase on Funds If Partial Blocking Allowed field is set to Yes, then this field allows a
Availability user to specify whether or not additional funds should be blocked (up to
the maximum required) when more funds become available in the
indicated initial deposit account.
Apply New Percentage In the case that the initial deposit percentage is changed on this table
For while loans exist in the system, should the new percentage apply to
both new and existing loans or should it apply to new loans only? Select
the option applicable to this product.

Loan Operations
Overview
In AA, contracts are known as arrangements. A loan arrangement is an agreement with a customer
for a loan product. It has an agreement date, is account-based and is currency specific. The
arrangement contains all details of the agreement such as;
 Amount and duration of the contract
 Interest rate
 Fees/commissions/charges
 Repayment details such as repayment frequency
 Repayment modalities
When a new arrangement is created, the arrangement is considered as a ‘Commitment’. The
arrangement is the central place for managing the agreement once it is in force. In this guide, the
terms Arrangement and Loan may be used interchangeably.
In the MicroBankingSuite, a number of Loan operations have been preconfigured and are delivered
with the system for your use. These operation include;
1. Loan creation (Direct Loan Input)
2. Individual Loan Disbursement
3. Group Loan Disbursement
4. Individual Loan repayments
5. Group Loan repayments
6. Loan Top-up and rescheduling
7. Loan payoff
8. Loan Write off
Loan Creation
In MicroBankingSuite, arrangement records are created automatically in two ways;
1. Through Loan Origination – Once an application is successfully approved, the final stage in
loan Origination is the creation of the loan record. Please refer to the MicroBankingSuite
Loan Origination guide for more information.
2. Through Direct Loan Input - Should your institution choose not to use the Loan Origination
solution in MicroBankingSuite, Loan details may be entered on the Direct Loan Input
application. Arrangements are then generated automatically upon authorization of the Direct
Loan Input record.
Direct Loan Input

This application provides a simple input screen where loan details such Borrower details, Product
requested, Amount requested and Term requested etc. are entered and upon authorization, loan
arrangement records are automatically generated. It also provides functionality to create all Group
members’ loans from a single screen. In addition to the loan details, Joint customers, Guarantors
and Collateral may be attached to the loan. A loan agreement document is generated for the
customer to acknowledge the loan details as entered in the system. Limits are automatically
created by the direct loan input application and both individual and group loans may be
automatically disbursed.
Access
General Menu>>AA Loans>>Loans without Origination >> Loan Direct Input
All in one RBHP>>Loans AA>>Loans>>New Loan
Procedure
1. Click on the New Loan icon
2. Enter all the required data on the fields as described below

the system hides Group Id. Similarly, the tab “Group Application Details”
will be hidden if Individual customer type is selected.
Note: If customer type is set to Individual yet the customer is linked to a
group, such a loan is treated as an individual loan and excluded from all
group loan reports. To create a loan for one or few group members, select
group customer type and maintain only the current borrowers on the
group application details tab.

number in its Id, it is easy to identify which group member
has what collateral record.
Group Application Details

If the application is for group loans, then the Group Application Details tab is activated and its multi-
value set of fields are auto-populated by the system as follows.
Group Member The system populates this field with the customer number
of each group member

of group members evenly and allows changes as may be
necessary. At all times, the system ensures that the total
amount requested tallies with the individual group member
amounts.
Term Requested The system defaults the term requested for each member
of the group and allows changes as may be necessary.
Instalment Based on amount requested and repayment term, the

system calculates the instalment amount for each member
of the group and defaults it on this field.
