After a loan has been approved and disbursed, it isn't possible to change
the value and date of installments if you're not using a loan with variable
installments. I will let Santosh clarify further.

As far as I know, you are correct that waiving of a loan charge can't be
undone. I do believe that client charges can be undone. You can create a
feature request on the Apache Fineract issue tracker at
https://issues.apache.org/jira/projects/FINERACT and we can try and
prioritize identifying a volunteer or partner to work on this.

Santosh, can you please reply on whether or not this can be supported. If
not, Kobus, please create a feature request by logging a ticket in the
issue tracker.

Can you please share the parameters of the loan product you've configured
so we can replicate and test. It might have to do with rounding of
installments but I'll let Santosh speak to this as he'll have better
knowledge.
