To manage and track customers sold to either a related finance company (RFC) or any other finance company, go to Customers >> 3 - Sales of Receivables.
Frazer gives you the ability to select customers based on contract balance, a range of sale dates, location codes, and customer rating. Checking multiple boxes allows you to further filter down your pool of customers.
Once you’ve made your grouping preferences known, click the green “Select Matching Customers” button. This will display a pool of customers to the left of the screen.
The pool can be sorted by Name, Balance, or the Order Added (if selecting customers one-by-one).
Click on a Customer in the list and then click Change Flat Dollar Amount to set the dollar amount on each individual customer. (If you know this information.) If the final amount is a calculated amount, that will be taken care of in the next step! When finished, press "Save and Exit."
Click on .
Click on to enter the default information for the company purchasing the account(s). Be sure to enter a Location Code for the buyer. The location code will be assigned to the vehicle purchased so that reports may be generated separating the sold accounts from the original sales to customers.

Checking the box indicating that you are selling the account to a Related Finance Company will yield even more options.
If you will be managing your RFC notes in the same Frazer you're currently using you can enter location code / rating code / Grouping information for reports use right from this screen.
If your dealership uses a separate copy of Frazer to manage RFC notes, you can check the second box as well as access the "External RFC Report" for use in entering your notes into the other copy of Frazer using the Purchased Customer tool.
