Looking for a loan management database

[Serious_Practitioner]

Happy New Year!

I am looking around for an MS-Access based database that will help me manage
the collections of 20-30 small loans. I need to be able to create
amortization schedules when the loan is first made, and then I need to be
able to apply payments to principal and interest as the payments come in.
Don't need multi-user capability or Web access. Just want to install the
thing, maybe do some minimal customization to suit my situation, and go to
work. I don't have the time to do this from scratch, but I can do the
customizing and future maintenance.

Does anyone know where such a package might be available?

Any help appreciated. Thank you.

I would think that Excel would be a better and simpler program for
this than Access.
I've used it for years for this purpose.

You're not looking at a lot of repetitive storage of names, addresses,
etc.
One spreadsheet template can be copied and adapted to each loan.

No need to use Access. You need basic accounting software, such as Quicken
for Business.

I just emailed you a small '97 mdb that should get you started
