Application Team

Important

Your security role determines what you are able to do on this screen. Privileges are required to associate and remove users on the application, associate and remove entities on the application, add and edit entities in the system, and associate and remove entity contacts on the application.

The Application Team screen allows you to manage the team members and external parties (entities) associated with a selected application.

Users

The Users section lists the ProLink+ users and their Application Team Role, which designates the role the user performs on this application.

The system automatically assigns users as follows:

  • Intake Clerk Business Line Role at creation of the application

  • Counselor Business Line Role at Stage 2 - Submitted

  • Underwriter Business Line Role at Stage 3 - Qualification

See Systematic Application Assignments for more information about auto-assignments.

You can also add other users to the application at any time.

  1. Navigate to the application, and then select the Application Team option in the left navigation menu.

    The List Application Team screen opens.

  2. Click Add User above the Users grid.

    The Find User popup opens.

The system automatically assigns a counselor to an application when it reaches Stage 2 - Submitted. You can also assign a counselor systematically before the application is submitted by clicking Assign Counselor above the Users grid.

The button is enabled if you have the security privilege, if the Property County has been selected on the application, and if no users have been assigned to the application with the Counselor role already.

When the application is submitted, the automated assignment engine will not assign another counselor to the application if one is already assigned.

Entities

The Entities section lists the external parties associated with the application. For example, when the application is submitted, any servicers or lenders selected on the Mortgage Info tab of the application are automatically added to the application.
