Article summary

To terminate a loan, the total outstanding principal and accrued charges must be paid immediately. The user must have the "Terminate Loan Accounts" permission, applicable for specific loan types such as Dynamic Loans with various interest calculation methods. To close a loan account, access the account, select "Close Terminate," provide a reason, choose a date, and confirm. Alternatively, termination can be executed via an API request. If needed, a loan account termination can be undone by adjusting the termination transaction. This involves navigating to the loan account overview, accessing the Transactions tab, locating the terminated transaction, and selecting "Undo Loan Account Termination Transaction." Manual fees are the only type allowed during this process.

You can also terminate a loan using the API by making a request to a dedicated endpoint:

POST /api/loans/{loanAccountId}:terminate

using the payload

{
    "valueDate":"2021-01-30T00:00:00+00:00",
    "notes":"Notes about the account termination process"
}

For more information, see our API documentation.

  1. Open the loan account overview page and go to the Transactions tab.
  2. Find the terminated transaction and, on the right-hand side of the screen, select Actions > Adjust.

Please be aware

You can't undo an account termination if there is a transaction posted after the termination that cannot be adjusted (such as INTEREST_LOCKED).
