Portfolio Data
This section identifies the specific information about each lease schedule and asset within your lease portfolio. This should include data ONLY for active leases. This includes leases in evergreen status: their lease expiration date in the past with no specific end of term action (such as return of equipment or buyout of equipment). (Please consult your LAS Implementation Project Manager if you want to load historical leases which have terminated and are no longer active.)
Several fields on the Lease Portfolio Data Tabs contain Drop-down boxes to select valid values for these fields. LA will reject the imported data file if values are entered that are not in the Drop-down. Please consult your LAS Implementation Project Manager if additional values are appropriate to your organization.
Lease Genres include:
EQ = Equipment Leases
RE = Real Estate leases
A Lease Genre is assigned automatically by the system to each schedule based on the Product Categories of the assets on that schedule.

End of Term options is information for each lease defining the available actions which could occur at the end of the lease term. Best practice is to enter all of the options available for a lease, not just the reasonably certain option. A lack of a return option may impact accounting classification and LeaseAccelerator will assume an automatic ownership transfer since it will appear that a Lessee is not able to return the equipment.

Notifications Tab
The Notifications tab identifies the criteria for each lease schedule and EOT Template to drive the automated email notifications.
Once the initial import and move to production is complete, clients may add attachments to notifications through the UI Settings screens. Clients can:
Attach documents that exist within LeaseAccelerator to a notification
Specify whether the attachment is sent on ONLY the first notification or ALL subsequent notifications
Specify which User Roles will receive the attachment on the notification
Notifications are applicable to schedules after a notification has been configured. They will not apply to existing leases in the system prior to the configuration of that notification. For more information on Notifications and Templates, please refer to the Product Feature Advisory for Global Notifications Settings.

Scheduled Related Expenses Tab
This tab enables the user to import ancillary expenditures that are required by the lease agreement or that have a direct impact on the accounting for a lease and are incremental to the base rent. The data required in this tab varies based on the category and subcategory of expense.
Expense Type is a general grouping of expenses such as CAMS, Other Rent, Initial Direct Costs (IDC), Lease Incentives, Deposits, or Late Fees. Expense SubType defines the specific type of expense such as for CAMS – Landscaping, Security; IDC – Commissions or Payments to Prior Tenants; Other Rent – Property Tax, Property Insurance, etc. (See the detail validation values)
Please note that the accounting treatment for ARO and End of Life is as follows: When Expense Type is ARO-End of Life, please note that for SubTypes of Equipment-Refurbishment and Real Estate - Return to Original Condition, LA will generate Asset Retirement Obligations (ARO) accounting. For SubType of Cost to Dismantle or Remove (per Agreement), LA will generate End of Life Accounting which is added to the Payment Schedule.

Payment Adjustments Tab
The Payment Adjustments table enables a client to import new payment schedules during a lease term. Adjusted Payment schedules may be necessary for various reasons and are generally caused by activity outside the normal lease lifecycle or the determinations of the adjusted payments performed outside the system. Current defined business reasons are:
Floating Rate Adjustment
Contingent Rent specified in the original contract when an event specified in the lease (but not an option) has occurred and/or the contingency has been resolved
Other, if the reason does not fall into the above. Renegotiated payments should not be entered as a Payment Adjustment as these are Modifications.
Payment Adjustment imports are NOT required for normal step payments or periodic escalations defined in the original lease document, where the change in rental payments is a specified amount or percentage and occurs with a specified periodicity (i.e. annual increases on the anniversary date). The Step Payment tab should be used in these circumstances.
Also, note that a new Payment Adjustment schedule will be input each time an adjustment occurs. The Payment Adjustment assumes a fixed payment at the input amount for the remaining lease term. The most recent Payment Adjustment will be used for any renewal periods. If the existing Payment Schedule is a Step Payment, then the % change from the current payment will be applied to each Step.

Manifest Tab
This tab is a document manifest listing each of the documents to be uploaded as part of the import process. This is a critical list to ensure that the system can identify, label, and attach each document correctly.
If you are trying to import documents to My Library, please see the LeaseAccelerator User Guide to My Library for specific details.
LeaseAccelerator has the ability to capture links to external sites using the Bulk File Import feature. This utilizes the Manifest tab of the PIW where Document Type = Attachment and the File Name is the exact address of the external site. The Document Number will serve as the hyperlink using the File Name indicated. See example below:
