Cross-Collaterizations
What is Cross-Collateralization?
"Cross-Collateralization" is a clause in recording or publishing Contracts that allows the Organization to recoup outstanding Advance balances from Right-Holder's Royalty Incomes made on multiple releases and/or from various sources such as music publishing royalties, ticket sales, merchandising, etc.
How works the Cross-Collateralization feature?
In Reprtoir, The "Cross-Collateralization" feature allows the creation of groups of Contracts to Cross-Collaterize the Recoupment of Expenses between these Contracts — instead of recovering Expenses individually on a Contract-by-Contract basis which is the default Recoupment method in Reprtoir.
