Covenants in Fairways Debt are agreements specifying actions and thresholds that the borrower must perform and respect. Covenants protect lenders when borrowers do not meet their requirements.
Metrics define the measurements to meet in a covenant. Perimeters define what borrower(s) are associated with what metrics.
If you have manual metrics, enter this manual data in the relevant scenario.
