Interest adjustment transactions are used by lenders to increase and decrease the interest due on an account:

• An interest adjustment transaction works like a charge or a credit—all of these affect a loan's amounts. In other words, instead of simply logging adjustments for bookkeeping's sake, these cause a borrower to pay more or less on their loan.
• Multiple interest adjustment transactions can be applied to the same date, but they must take place after the contract date.
• Interest adjustment transactions do not affect a loan's interest rate.

For an example of how interest adjustment transactions work within the UI, take a look at our Interest Adjustment Transactions article.
