4.7.3 Itemizations
On the Itemizations sub screen, you can define the itemized components for each type of contract, indicate if it is required, and determine whether it has a positive or negative bearing on the contract itemization math. You can establish the following groups of itemization transactions:
| Advance | Total amount of the product that is not a part of financed fees; in other words, the total amount the customer requested to be advanced. |
| Financed Fees | Fees rolled into the principal balance of the product. Financed fees are also considered to be a part of the finance charge. |
| Pre-Paid Fees | Fees that are paid by the consumer prior to the funding of the Line of Credit. These fees are not rolled into the balance of the product but are considered as part of the finance charge and are included in the calculation of the APR. |
| Producer | Fees that are paid to or by the producer of the Line of Credit; for example, a fee that is being charged to the producer. These transactions will affect proceeds. |
| Escrow | Allows you to connect the actual escrow itemization with the escrow type and the funding transaction. |
