Financial Plans in Autologica Sky DMS

Manage financial plans with different interest methods, plus key features for an organized workflow.

Complete Management Process

Autologica Sky DMS lets dealers manage finance plans for vehicle sales. It offers different interest methods (direct, French, etc.), automatically reallocates financed amounts and calculates interest on defaults, among other features.

In the latest update, the search feature for settlements has been improved, and the visualization of interest on defaults in each pre-settlement has been facilitated.

Multiple Sources

Finance plans can originate from different sources:

  • OEM Financing: In some countries these are also “savings plans”, where the customer makes payments and later receives the vehicle.

  • Credit-Based Plans: These can be financed by the dealership or a bank. In this case, the customer first secures the loan, receives the vehicle, and then repays in installments.

Different Interest Methods

Autologica Sky DMS supports two ways to calculate interest:

  • Direct Interest: Interest is calculated on the total financed amount. It is fixed, added to the principal, and divided into equal installments.

  • French Method: Interest is calculated on the outstanding principal balance for each period. Initially, the interest is higher, and the principal payment is lower, with this ratio changing over time.

Automatic Financing Installment Calculation

When the dealership agrees to a financing contract, the customer does not always pay on time, and the terms are not always the same. Therefore, it is necessary to calculate, on one hand, the standard financing, but also, for each installment payment, determine whether it was paid on time or if late fees or penalty interest need to be charged.

Autologica Sky DMS takes all of this into account to determine the new installment amount, cancel the principal, and carry over any outstanding balances to the following installments.
