Cross-sells provides users an interface to sell additional account products, therefore providing additional value to the applicant's relationship with the institution. Cross-Sells are opportunities generated by the rules engine. The opportunities that generate are based on the decision models and varies across applications. When an application has been approved, users are able to navigate to the Cross-sells screen to offer the opportunities generated.

In addition to the Cross-sells screen, a Cross-sell panel is available to provide users with the ability to offer existing cross-sell opportunities and generate new non-loan cross-sells. For details about the Cross-sell panel, please see the Underwriting Review topic in this guide. |

The Cross-sell screen is divided into two tabs: Opportunities and Liabilities.

The Liabilities tab does not populate with existing liability information for account cross-sells. |
The Liabilities tab contains a grid that lists existing liabilities from an applicant’s credit report. The liabilities that populate in this list are not linked to a Replacement or Consolidation Offer. Each liability imported populates as a new row within the liabilities grid.

The following cross-sell types may be presented within the Cross-sell screen's Opportunities tab:
Account offers are cross-sells for account products. These offers many include products such as Certificates of Deposit, IRA's and Preferred Checking accounts.
Cross-sell opportunities are generated manually through or automatically through Event Processing.
![]() |
When a manual cross-sell is added on a screen that includes other application data, the application data is cleared when the cross-sell is saved; therefore, it is highly recommended that the screen is saved prior to regenerating opportunities, or refreshing the Cross-sell panel to ensure that the application data is maintained. |
Upon navigating to the Cross-sells screen, users are notified that no cross-sell opportunities currently exist.
To generate cross-sells, click within the Cross-sells toolbar. A notification appears which alerts users that continuing causes all existing cross-sell to be overwritten. Click Yes.
Cross-sells generate and populate within the Opportunities tab.
Cross-sell products may be generated by the system-defined Process Cross-sells on Approval event and action pair or a custom pair created by the institution. Upon completing the defined event, such as Application Approval, cross-sells are processed. Once all cross-sell opportunities have been generated, a Notification alerts users that cross-sells have been generated.
To ignore the cross-sell opportunities Notification, click Dismiss to remove the Notification. Click Close to acknowledge and retain the Notification.
Navigate to the Cross-sell screen via the workflow or manually select the screen to work the cross-sells that were generated.

The StopCrossSellAction rule prevents cross-sell opportunities from generating on applications and child applications. |
Cross-sell offers may be processed directly within the Offer Card, by clicking Provide Response.
If the account product is later removed from the application via the Add Account Product screen, the response displayed within the cross-sell offer card is changed to Declined.
Accepting Account cross-sell offers adds the account product to the current "parent" application. A separate "child" application is not created for account product cross-sells.
