Hi Mark

  1. Create a new bank account [loan]
  2. Do a transfer out of the loan account into your bank account for the lump sum
  3. Class the monthly repayments as transfers from your bank account to the loan account
  4. Do an adjustment via a journal or a money out transaction to reflect the interest being charged [monthly/quarterly/annually to suit your needs]
