Loan Management Preferences in AcuLoan
The AcuLoan system has several different Loan Management Preferences that are set up during the implementation phase. These preferences allow for a more custom system. Users can see numbering settings, write-off parameters, collection information, loan preferences, and taxation of the preferences screen from the AcuLoan dashboard.
Loan Book Dashboard Overview
Like Acumatica, AcuLoan has its own dashboard that can be configured to best fit your needs. This dashboard is configured and designed the same as any other dashboard in Acumatica using the design feature along the top right-hand side of the screen (you can see this in the screenshot above). The AcuLoan dashboard is called the Loan Book Overview.
In the photo below, users will see what the Loan Book Overview dashboard looks like and what tiles are and graphs are available to configure.
On the Loan Book Overview Dashboard, there are several configurable tiles. These help users to see an overview of their loans and accounts in AcuLoan. In this specific dashboard view you can see several things:
• Total Book Value
• Advanced Payments Disbursed
• Receipts Payments Received
• Different Trends – deal size and capitalized interest
• Actual vs. Budget – Income
• View of Certain Loans
There are several other items that can be included on a dashboard for AcuLoan. These tiles and graphs have many customization options. The colors can be changed as well as the thresholds which prompt the tile to “alert.” Dashboards in the AcuLoan program from Acumatica are a great way to get an overview of what is happening in the system. These dashboards can be configured one time for multiple users to see.

Changes to the Projects Form
