The first step in setting up amortization in Eagle Accounting is the creation of the accounting rule for amortization.
In the Create Accounting Rules panel, you can add accounting rules for use with amortization/accretion rules or for use with unrealized gain/loss (URGL) rules.
To create an accounting rule for amortization:

  1. Do one of the following:
    • In Portfolio Data Center, in the left navigation pane, click Portfolio Desk > Accounting Portfolio Rules > Accounting Rules > Create Accounting Rules.
    • In Accounting Center, in the left navigation pane, click Setup > Portfolio Rules > Accounting Rules > Create Accounting Rules.

You see the Create Accounting Rules panel.

  1. In the Rule Name field, enter the name for the accounting rule.
  2. In the Rule Description field, enter a description for the accounting rule.
  3. In the Rule Type field, select Amortization/Accretion Rule (Default).
  4. Click Submit.

The system creates an instance number for the accounting rule (instance tag 4629) that serves as the primary key for the accounting rule.
You are ready to add the amortization/accretion rules for the accounting rule.
You can also edit, delete, list, and list the history of established accounting rules. The system does not allow you to delete an accounting rule that has an underlying amortization rule.
