If you change the financier on this screen, TFS will search for a Calculation Method for that financier that matches the Finance Type and the State that has already been selected. If there is no match, a warning prompt will appear and the Calculation Method will be removed. It is preferable to select the financier for the application by using the Calculation Method popup button the Calculations screen. This will ensure that you cannot pick a financier that does not have a method for the selected State and Finance Type. You can enter a Contact Person for the financier here.
