Access this screen by selecting the new BIN on the previous screen during the Change Loan Category process.   

The "Change Loan Category" function will evaluate the credit card loan, look for any restrictions that would prevent the loan category from being changed, such as a Write-off, and then take the steps to assign the new category configurations to the existing loan, and move the existing balances, if you so choose. Loan category is stored on the credit card loan card loan with the charge type buckets, meaning that there is no clean up* when a loan category is moved – the old buckets retain their payoff rate even after the new category is established, and you will be able to differentiate between the previous buckets and the new buckets at a glance in the credit card inquiry screen.

*when selecting to move the balances to a new category, existing rate overrides must be added again to the new record.
