Bugs & Code Cleanup

Updated User Management for Organizations with Many Sites

  • We fixed a bug that impacted user management for admins of organizations with many sub organization sites. We fixed the issue so now admins of those organizations can add and edit users roles.

  • Fixed an issue so lenders can now update or remove additional borrowers when there are more than 2 borrowers added to the loan application. Now by clicking the button X# More borrowers next to the primary borrowers contact information the lender will see a dropdown which allows them to update or remove the addtional borrowers that were added from the LOS.

Encompass Disclosures e-Sign Updates (Special Release 2/12)

We've made a few updates to clean up the borrower user experience on disclosure e-Signing process to reduce borrower issue that requires LOs or support teams to assist. These updates will be released on. the morning of Wednesday 2/12.

Updated eDisclosure Borrower Tasks Text to Guide Borrowers

We've updated the task description on eDisclosures to help guide borrowers through common areas of confusion.

  • Notify that they will be taken into a new tab to sign Disclosure

  • Inform them that the task will be automatically completed after all participants have signed

  • Warning that the experience will not work with an incognito/private browser window

We also added clearer instructions on co-borrower eDisclosure tasks. Because a borrower cannot complete this task for their co-borrower, we provide instructions that their co-borrower must login to their own account to review and e-sign disclosures.

Auto-Complete eDisclosures Tasks and Removed "I'm Done Signing Button"

Previously we had an "I'm done signing button" for borrowers to manually close their e-signing tasks. This had two issues.

  1. It relied on borrowers to come back after completing signatures to "complete" the task

  2. Some borrowers were prematurely clicking the "I'm done signing" prior to actually e-signing the documents which would close the task locking them out of being able to open and sign the documents.

To address the issue we've implemented two updates

  • We removed the I'm Done Signing button.

  • We are automatically tracking when borrowers have completed signing documents. Once all borrower participants have signed the documents we will mark the tasks as signed and completed.
