Non-Accrual Setup Guide
Last updated January 21, 2026
This guide explains how to configure non-accrual periods in Hypercore, depending on your use case:
- Temporary non-accrual (grace period)
- Defaulted or impaired loans (stop interest accrual from a specific date)
- Yield / OID non-accrual handling
1. Temporary Non-Accrual (Grace Period)
Use this option when you want to temporarily stop principal and/or interest accrual for a defined period.
Step-by-Step
Navigate to Loan Terms
- Go to the Loan Page
- Click the Terms tab
- Click ➕ Add Terms
Set Up Grace Period
- Set the Terms Update Date to the date the non-accrual should begin
- Locate Principal Grace Period:
- Enter the start and end dates
- For interest non-accrual, locate Interest Grace Period
- Enter the relevant dates
Save & Validate
- Click Save
- Review the Loan Schedule to confirm accrual is paused during the selected period
Important Notes: During a grace period no principal accrues and no interest accrues. After the grace period ends, accrual resumes automatically based on the original terms.
2. Defaulted / Impaired Loan (Stop Accruing Interest)
Use this method when a loan is in default or impairment and should stop accruing interest permanently (or until further notice).
Step-by-Step
Navigate to Rate Updates
- Go to the Loan Page
- Open the Terms panel (right side)
- Click Update Loan Terms → Rates Update (or “New Loan Terms” if required)
Configure 0% Rate
- Set the Effective Date for when non-accrual should begin
- In the Rate Updates grid, set:
- Interest Rate = 0%
- If applicable, adjust:
- Margin
- Min Rate
- Max Rate (to ensure they do not override the 0% rate)
- Click Save
- Review the Schedule to confirm interest stops accruing from that date
Optional: You may also mark the loan as Defaulted using loan status flags for reporting and tracking purposes.
Important Notes: This approach A. preserves historical interest rates B. keeps a full audit trail C. Is fully reversible with a future rate update
3. Non-Accrual – Yield / OID Handling
If the loan includes OID / EIR (Effective Interest Rate):
Required Configuration:
Make sure to also define the non-accrual period inside the OID Settings of the same loan terms update.
Otherwise:
The system may stop cash interest, but still continue yield amortization in reports
This ensure both cash interest and yield recognition are aligned.
