Plan dated movements manually
With Automatic Funding off, enter each Draw or Repayment inside the relevant loan. The amount and date determine the debt balance, cash movement and subsequent interest. Manual draws still require a committed, available facility with sufficient room and an eligible maturity. A repayment cannot exceed principal outstanding. On the same date, repayments are processed before draws within the facility, allowing restored revolving capacity to be used.
Let priority fund the shortfall
Automatic Funding measures cash against Minimum Cash after scheduled movements and interest. It draws from eligible facilities in ascending numeric priority until the gap is covered or capacity is exhausted. A lower priority number funds first. The first eligible loan within a facility receives the automatic draw. Unavailable facilities, not-yet-started lines and facilities or loans at their maturity boundary are not treated as free capacity.
Settlement timing is not the selected view
Automatic movements settle at the end of the underlying dated calculation intervals. Interest for the interval is calculated before that settlement, so a new automatic borrowing begins accruing interest in the following interval. Annual, Quarterly, Monthly and Weekly are views over this same schedule. Do not infer that switching to Annual delays all financing to year-end or that switching to Weekly creates a different loan engine.
Choose how excess cash is used
Auto repay excess cash requires Automatic Funding to be on. It uses cash above Minimum Cash to repay revolvers in reverse funding priority; term and other facilities are not automatically swept. With the option off, excess cash stays in the model. For example, if cash is 80 and Minimum Cash is 30, up to 50 can repay existing revolving principal, capped by the balance.
Interpret a residual requirement
If Minimum Cash is 20, projected cash is โ50 and only 40 of eligible capacity remains, automatic funding leaves cash at โ10 and Required Funding at 30. The residual is not borrowed automatically. Inspect the gap date, facility status and available amount before changing the commitment. Analytical debt capacity does not supply another facility or clear this warning.
