SUMMARY

If you try to delete a loan payment preceded by other payments, you will not receive a confirmation message.

In Microsoft Money, if you intentionally or unintentionally try to delete a loan payment from the Loan book, and if that payment is followed by other loan payments, you will receive the message:

In the <Loan Name> loan there are loan payments following the one you are changing. Do you want Microsoft Money to recalculate the Principal/Interest distribution for these payments?

In this situation, you can choose Yes, No, or Cancel:
  • Choosing Yes will delete the loan payment, and the Principal / Interest distributions for the remaining payments will be calculated.
  • Choosing No causes the loan payment to be deleted.
  • Choosing Cancel aborts the process.

MORE INFORMATION

If you try to delete the last loan payment in the list, then you will only receive the normal Confirmation message:

Do you want to delete this transaction?

Since there are no payments after this one, no adjustment will need to be made to principal and interest for the nonexistant future payments.
