Formulas Required

=PMT(Interest_Rate/12, Loan_Term, -Loan_Amount)→ Calculates monthly payment in the Loan Calculation Engine.=IF(TODAY() > Next_Payment_Due, TODAY() - Next_Payment_Due, 0)→ Determines days past due (positive = overdue).=EOMONTH(Start_Date, ROW()-ROW($A$2))→ Generates monthly payment dates in the amortization schedule.=VLOOKUP(Loan_ID, Loan_Calculation_Engine!$A:$D, 4, FALSE)→ Pulls calculated values from the calculation engine into the master list.=IF(Status="Delinquent", "Red", IF(Status="In Grace", "Yellow", "Green"))→ Returns color-coded status for conditional formatting.
Conditional Formatting Rules
To enhance visual tracking and alert users to critical statuses:
- Red Background + Bold Text: For any loan where
Days Past Due ≥ 15. - Yellow Background: If the status is "In Grace" or Days Past Due between 1–14.
- Green Background: For loans with Status = "Active" and Days Past Due = 0.
- Bold & Blue Text: Loans with a Loan Amount exceeding $50,000 (highlighted for management attention).

2. The Loan Calculation Engine will auto-calculate monthly payments based on interest rate, term, and amount.
3. Every time a new loan is added or modified, update the Process Documentation Log, recording actions like "Credit Check Completed", "Documentation Verified", or "Funding Approved". Include timestamps and responsible staff.
4. Use the Amortization Schedule sheet to validate repayment behavior and detect anomalies (e.g., early payments, missed installments).
5. The Dashboard & KPI Summary sheet updates automatically based on data in other sheets—review charts weekly.
6. Export the full audit trail by printing or saving the Process Documentation Log as a PDF for compliance or review purposes.
