Branch
Branches represent the physical offices or operational locations of a financial institution where loan-related activities are managed. Branches can be used to organize lending operations, monitor branch-level performance, and support branch-wise accounting and reporting.
In Frappe Lending, Branch records help map loans and financial transactions to their respective operational locations, making it easier to manage decentralized lending operations.
