Enhancements to Locking Services*

Charlie Gunn
  • Updated

Overview

Release 6.1.1000 includes the following changes to locking services:

  1. The configuration "Locking - Display Lock Actions & Monitor Changes" has been renamed to "Locking - Monitor Changes Post-Lock" and is no longer used to control the appearance of the Lock Actions button. Instead, the appearance of the Lock Actions button is now configured by the system to appear for TPO environments, and will remain hidden in Retail environments.
  2. The following configurations have been discontinued, since the system will now control the appearance of the Update Lock and Extend Lock buttons based upon the business channel, lock status, disclosure status, and other settings.
    • "Access to a) Extend Lock button for Pre-Line of Demarcation"
    • "Access to b) Extend Lock button for Post-Line of Demarcation"
    • "Access to c) Update Lock button for Pre-Line of Demarcation"
    • "Access to d) Update Lock button for Post-Line of Demarcation"
  3. A new privilege called "Pricing - Enable button Forward Lock on Pricing Results" has been introduced to allow users to perform a forward lock on the "Pricing Results" page. The existing privilege "Pricing - Enable button Submit Lock on Pricing Results" has been modified to trigger the standard lock workflow and will no longer trigger the forward lock workflow. For more information on the locking options available on the "Pricing Results" page, refer to this article.
  4. The system will no longer attempt to update both pricing and fees when submitting a lock request, and will instead only "Update Pricing" as part of the standard lock workflow when the system determines that the last repricing event is outdated or when pricing parameters have changed. 
  5. When changes are made to the following fields from the "Shop for Rates" page, the system will now trigger a pricing update when users attempt to request initial floating disclosures or to submit a lock request:
    • DTI 
    • Number of Properties Financed
    • Months of Reserves
