Screenshots

Sign-On Screen

This is a typical sign-on screen that you will see when you bring up Locate1 Collection Software. The background pictures may be different, or even customized, but the sign-in selections are generally the same. Your choices include signing on to the five main screens, or you may choose to run two standard reports. The five main screens are: the Main Collection Screen, the Account Information Screen, the Skip Tracing Screen, the Postdates and PPA Screen, the Legal Screen. A detailed description of each screen can be found by clicking on each screen. The two reports include a Liquidation Report, and a PDCK/PPA Reminder Report. The Liquidation Report Button will actually produce two different informational reports when you choose that option. The first portion of the report is called The Liquidation Report, and it is a general report that is broken down by purchase (or placement) date. It will give you a quick liquidation rate of each portfolio or placement. The secondary portion that generates is called the Portfolio Information Report. This is a more detailed liquidation report. The PDCK/PPA Reminder report will identify all accounts that have postdates on file ten days in the future. This report is helpful when sending out reminder notices.

Main Collection Screen

Most of your work will stem from the Main Collection Screen. You can access all the other screens from the Main Collection Screen. The Main Collection Screen displays most of the relevant information necessary to contact your debtors, including debtor name, address, and phone numbers. This screen also displays the most important accounts information such as the original lender, the original account number, account balance information, and your own system-assigned reference number. The Main Collection Screen will exhibit a collector number that you will assign to each of your collection representatives. You may also print letters and document your notes from the Main Collection Screen. Your collection staff will typically work from this screen.

Account Information Screen

The Account Information Screen provides more account details than is presented on the Main Collection Screen. You will be able to find specific information pertaining to the account on this screen such as contract dates, charge-off dates, last pay dates, interest rates, social security numbers, and account balances. In the event that you are doing contingency work, you will also find client information on this screen. You will also post payments on the Account Information Screen. It's as easy as inputting the amount you wish to post and clicking the "Post Payment" button. All the appropriate fields will automatically update. Your bookkeeping staff may choose to sign in directly to this screen to expedite payment processing.

Skip Screen

The Skip Screen is used primarily for skip tracing. This screen provides you with a number of tools. First, you have four alternative address fields with letter sending capabilities. It is not uncommon to find possible addresses for debtors. These alternative address fields allow you to expand your searches easier. You will also find fields to update POE information, relatives, associates, leads, and nearbys. There is also a "Skip Notes" field that allows you to copy and paste data from any number of skiptracing sites that you may utilize. Ohio collectors have an added benefit of finding links to many of Ohio's county records, such as civil courts, criminal courts, probate courts, county recorders, marriage records, property records, voters' registration, and you'll even find dog tag records for a few counties.

Legal Screen

As the name would imply, the Legal Screen helps you maintain the disposition of your accounts that have been sent to a law office for legal action. Obviously, this would hinge on the fact that your law offices keep you informed. It is assumed that most will provide a monthly status report. This screen will allow you to transfer the information that they provide you into your system in a logical manner.

Post Dates and Payment Plan Screen

This screen allows you to maintain your paying accounts. There are twelve (12) postdated check fields with reminder notices established for each of the twelve fields. There are fields that allow you to send out monthly reminder notices for those debtors who will not authorize postdates. You can also generate Confirmation of Terms letters from this screen for payment plans and settlement agreements.
