APPOINTMENT_DATE |
EVACDT |
This is the delinquency letter appointment date. This field is entered when you select Action Code 210 on the Letters and Actions screen.

See the Event 23 Sample Letters for an example of how to use this field in your event letters. |
APPOINTMENT_TIME |
EVTIME |
This is the delinquency letter appointment time. This field is entered when you select Action Code 211 on the Letters and Actions screen. The delinquency letter time is entered in the corresponding action date field as 01-HH-MM, where 01 is the month (e.g., 01=January, 02=February, 03=March, etc.), HH = hours, and MM = minutes, used in event 23 and 24 only). |

DATE OF LAST PAYMENT |
LNDTLP |
This field shows the date that the last payment was posted. If a payment reversal (tran code 608) occurs, the system will look in the collection history for the previous last payment date and enter that date in this field. The last payment date is reported to the credit bureau. It is updated as payment activity occurs on the loan.
Note: The loan transaction 590 (Charge LIP Interest to LIP Undisbursed Balance) also updates the date of last payment. However, the reversal of this transaction will not change the last payment date. |
DELINQUENCY DEMAND DATE |
Date calculated using demand days (see below); alpha or numeric. |
|
DELINQUENCY DEMAND DAYS |
Number of days that will be added to the date the event letter is created. Demand days are set up by loan type on the Delinquency Demand Days screen (function 805/806) in GOLD Services (Application 8).
Example: Loan type 12 is set up for 10 demand days. The night the event letter is created, the program adds 10 days to the current run date and displays that date here. |

LNFVNO |
This is the FHA- or VA-assigned number for this loan.
Note: The institution’s FHA servicer number is set up with institution option H FHAC. If you are servicing FHA loans, this must be set up in order for it to appear on the event letter. If you would like this option, please send in a work order. |
