FAQ Trade Finance Management

I want to import Trade Finance without an end date. How can I do that?

An Excel import requires an end date. Add an end date to the agreements. After import, go to the Trade Finance register to edit the agreements in question and activate the "No end date" selection individually in each one.

We want to split our Trade Finance agreements in reporting between different statuses of the agreement. How can we do that?

If you haven't already taken cost center or portfolio into use for trade finance agreements, you can, for example, use a portfolio for this purpose. Create different types of status names as separate portfolios. Then, pinpoint the right portfolio to each agreement.

How do I follow counterparty limits with Trade Finance agreements?

First, you need to set counterparty limits. Limits can be set in under each company in the company register ‘Settings - Common Data - Companies - Company xxx - Limits tab - Trade Finance limit’.

A more detailed report can be found in ‘Reporting - Trade Finance - Trade Finance limit report’.
