Use @pls.* field codes to print interest details and outstanding totals from the Promise Listing Summary.

Loop through the Promise Entries using an @pe loop with @pe.* field codes.

For example:

Start On: Debtor

Principal: @pls.pr
Interest: @pls.in
Owing: @pls.ow

You do not need to have the debtor's account open to access Promise Listing Summary details, so a report with Promise information may be queued in your daily batch.
