Using the Settlement Calculator
Settlement Calculator:
This is a small aid to assist users in calculating settlement figures on account balances.  To launch the settlement calculator right-click on the button to the right of the "Current Balance" box (The button with the small calculator icon).  This will give you the option to select which calculator you require.  In this case click "Settlement".  The Settlement Calculator Screen will now be visible.

The calculator will load with the "Account Current Balance" set at the value from the account the calculator was launched.  You may now edit the fields to work out the settlement you require including the instalment calculations.

Enter Settlement Details:
By changing the "Settlement %" value the calculator will amend the "New Balance" to the percentage you have entered.  If you change the "New Balance" value the "Settlement %" will change to the amended percentage of the current balance.

If you now change the "No of Instalments" the "Payments" value will re-adjust to the amount each payment will be based on the number of instalments.  Vice versa if you change the value of the "Payments" the instalment amount will re-adjust.  If there is a residual amount left over from working out the instalments this value will appear in the "Amount Remaining" box.
