Creating Funding Sources

Field Name

Definition

Classification

Categorizes the Funding Source based on its financial role or type (Debt, Equity, Other). This choice will determine what options are available for Funding Source Type.

Funding Source Type

Identifies a sub-categorization of the Classification. The dropdown options in this menu are customized fields that are aliased versions of Built Standard options. They can be Viewed and Edited in Settings > Field Configurations > Funding Source Type.

Capital Provider

The Capital Provider is the Organization that is providing the Capital for the Funding Source.

Name

The Name given to the Funding Source.

Currency

Field used to capture the currency of the Funding Source.

Total Amount

The Total Amount of the Funding Source.

Anticipated Initial Funding

Anticipated Initial Funding represents the amount of funds the Lender expects to disburse to the borrower at loan closing.

Lending Program

The Lending Program field is used to categorize the different financing structures through which loans are originated, managed, or funded. Each option in this field reflects a distinct type of lending arrangement or funding source, each with its own set of operational, regulatory, and financial characteristics.

Primary Source

Only one Funding Source in a Deal’s capital stack can be marked as “primary”. Its underlying “Loan Number”, “Maturity Date”, and “Closing Date” values can be used at the deal level for identification and reporting.

Lien Position

Lien Position is the ranking order of claims or rights that creditors or investors hold over an asset in the event of a default. In a multi-source debt and equity structure, the Lien Position determines the sequence in which each debt or equity holder would be repaid from asset liquidation proceeds, starting with the first position and moving sequentially downward. Higher-priority lien positions generally represent senior debt that is repaid first, while lower-priority positions are subordinate claims.

Description

Long form free text description of the Funding Source.

Excluded

Designates whether this Funding Source should be excluded from balancing to the Deal’s budgeted Uses.

External Unique Identifier

The EUID is a unique identifier you can assign from an external system. It enables integrations to reliably match and sync records between platforms. Common examples of EUIDs include Loan Number, Obligation Number, Facility Number, Obligor-Ob.

Additional Reference ID

Field Name

Definition

Target Closing Date

The projected or planned date for the loan agreement to be executed and finalized.

Closing Date

The date all closing documents are executed by the borrower (and guarantors, if applicable). This is when the borrower becomes contractually obligated to the loan. While recorded as an important milestone, this date does not affect maturity or repayment schedules in Built.

Note Date

The date the borrower signs the promissory note. This represents the formal execution of the loan agreement. While tracked for documentation and reporting, the Note Date does not drive maturity or repayment calculations in Built.

Funding Date

The date loan proceeds are first disbursed — either directly to the borrower or on their behalf (e.g., to pay off prior liens, fund construction, or cover closing costs). This is the system’s anchor for calculating loan maturity and repayment schedules. Other milestone dates such as Note Date or Closing Date are tracked for documentation, but do not affect maturity calculations.

Initial Loan Term (months)

The length of the loan’s initial term, in months, before renewal or extension options are considered.

Initial Maturity Date

The original maturity date of the loan, calculated as the Funding Date plus the Initial Loan Term (in months). This reflects the end of the contractual loan term before any extensions are applied.

Current Maturity Date

Date in which loan is up for maturity (including executed extensions)

Current Maturity Date = Initial Maturity Date + Active Extension(s)

Fully Extended Maturity Date

Date in which loan is up for maturity if all included extensions are executed

Fully Extended Maturity Date = Initial Maturity Date + SUM of Extension

Permitted Extensions

Months

The amount of months that a specific extension is for

Fee Amount

Servicing Fee

The amount charged periodically by the lender or servicer to manage the loan, covering administration, recordkeeping, and reporting functions.
