2. On Trade Finance Group Code Maintenance screen, specify the fields.
   Each group code that you define is associated with an appropriate exposure category that must be used to track exposure due to loans issued to customers in the group, as well as customer accounts with outstanding overdrafts. The exposure category for a group is either derived from the logic maintained in the Exposure Type Category Linkage maintenance for the group type, or explicitly specified. If it is derived, it is displayed in this screen, by the End of Day batch program. The type of the group indicates the type of customers that belong to the group – retail, corporate, Charge Clearing or Tax. If no logic has been maintained in the Exposure Type Category Linkage for the group type, you can indicate the applicable exposure category for the group.
