  • Other fields included in NET income calculation are: Depreciation and Interest and other Addbacks

  • All remaining fields in business income form are not included in the calculation

Business + Salaried Employee (Director's pay)

  • Go to client's Personal details tab and add both Salaried employee and Self-employed as Current employer with the same employer details

Example screenshot

  • Next, add both Business and Salaried employee income in the Income tab

  • Link contact and same employer for both income types

  • Add the required income details to both income types

Please note that, if the user does not want the business income to be included in NET calculation, instead of adding profit before tax, they should add gross sales.

Existing Rental Income

  • Add INV property in the Assets tab

  • Add the amount for the monthly rental income

Please take care to ensure that you set the correct percentage of property ownership, as that will determine how the rental income is distributed among the owners.

Example screenshot

Existing Rental Income will be automatically added into the Income tab for the completed INV property asset.

To change details for this income, edit the property rent income and property ownership % in Assets tab.

  • Existing rental income is included in NET calculation

Example screenshot


New Rental Income

  • Add an INV security in the Security Details tab

  • Add the amount for the monthly rental income

Please take care to ensure that you set the correct percentage of property ownership, as that will determine how the rental income is distributed among the owners.

Example screenshot

Kindly note that the Income tab shows only the client's current financial position.

Proposed rental income will be taken into account for Maximum borrowing and under Summary tab in 'Proposed position' and 'Proposed position with buffer' calculations.

Proposed rental income is not shown in the Income tab.

  • To change income details, go to Security Details tab


Other Taxable Income

  • Add Other taxable income in the Income tab

  • Mandator: gross income, income frequency and linked contact

  • Included in NET calculation

Please note that other taxable income could be used for anticipated rental income of an OO property, that will become INV after settlement and that was not added as a security for a new loan.

Example screenshot


Non Taxable Income

  • Add Non taxable income type in the Income tab

  • Mandatory: gross income, income frequency and linked contact

  • Will be included in the NET income calculation but not taxed (so Gross income = Net income, will be the same amount)

  • Example screenshot


Rental income for OO that will become INV after settlement

  • The income tab shows only the current financial position, the proposed rental income will be taken into account for Maximum borrowing, and under 'Summary' tab in 'Proposed position' and 'Proposed position with buffer' columns; if the property is not used as a security (added as existing security in Security Details tab for new loan)

  • The rental income from an existing O/O property that will become INV after settlement is regarded as anticipated

  • If you need to include this income, for your clients (borrowing capacity reasons), you can, as a workaround, add other taxable income type and describe this income, as the rental income of the OO property, that will become INV after settlement.
