The narrative is calculated according the definitions in TRANSACTION, STMT.NARR.FORMAT and STMT.NARR.PARAM Application interface routine to the accounting system. Invokes the routines to validate & post entries, determines the suspense categories for value dated transactions (value dated accounting) and maintains currency positions. When Pricipal amount outstanding on the contract, ccy, rate and other details are passed as incoming parameters, this routine will return caculated repayment amount. When Pricipal amount outstanding on the contract, ccy, rate and other details are passed as incoming parameters, this routine will return Number of payments due. Calculate the yield to maturity or internal rate of return for a series of cash-flows This routine will clear each partfile is the file is distributed else a normal clear will be performed. Program to convert a currency amount to another currency amount This routine will determine the date a payment should be valued.Based on the day convention and the business centres,the value date for the schedules are determined. This routine formats rate values depending upon the system settings. If extended precision is on, the maximum no. of decimals allowed is 9 else it is 6. Total no of digits allowed for a rate value is 11. This routine will return an interest amount based on a given base amount at a specified rate. It will also return the rounded amount if the currency code is passed.

ERR

Displays error message on the same line as the input field or on line 22 if running under a multi-line version. Can be used only within the confines of a template program. Log all EOD errors so they can be reported at then end of the EOD processing. 1) Fixing date error - This field indicates which of the currencies has a FIXING DATE rate and the current date does not match the date the rate was last fixed. If this field is set, then 1 indicates BUY.CCY is in error, 2 that it is the SELL.CCY and 3 that both are. 2) Suspended market - This indicates that one of the currencies has had quotes suspended whether it be the LOCAL, BUY or SELL CCY. If the LOCAL is suspended this automatically terminates the routine. For BUY and SELL, the routine is terminated only if the suspension indicator is not set to 'BLOCKED'. If the routine is terminated, a relevant message is returned in ETEXT. If the indicator is set then its value is return in RETURN.CODE. Note: Suspension is not currently available as an option in CURRENCY. 3) Tolerance exceeded - If the DIFFERENCE in terms of the local currency is greater than the maximum conv.tolerance for the company, then this is set to 'N' indicating the rate is out of bounds. If it is set to 'O' then the rate needs an override and if set to 'Y' then rate is okay. Deletes a record from a file
