Within Event Processing, the following two actions can be configured to execute during a specified event to automatically generate a Member Account Number, Loan Account Number/Suffix and/or Account Product Number/Suffix:
Action | Description |

|
![]() |
For more information on configuring Event/Action pairs, please see the Event Processing topic in this guide. |
To automatically create a new record in the core for an existing primary applicant, system administrators can author a rule in Rules Management to set the value of the NewMembership field to Create New Member Account. When the value of the NewMembership field is set to Create New Member Account, a new record is automatically created in the core for the primary applicant when the rule executes.
This field can be set through a rule configured to execute at any point in the application process that is prior to when the applicant record should be created. For example, if it is desired to create the new applicant record during a specific event, an Event Processing rule can be authored and assigned to an Event/Action pair that includes the Create Member Account Number action. When the action is fired during the specified event, the NewMembership field is set to Create New Member Account, which automatically creates a new record in the core for the primary applicant.
Reference the table below for an overview of the rule logic that can be used to automatically create a record in the core for an existing primary applicant:
Entity Level | Rule Template | Example | ||
Application | Set the value of a field |
|
![]() |
For more information on authoring rules, please see the Rules Management topic in this guide. |
The Applications Summary panel is configured in the Workspace Summary attributes of each sub-product within Loan Product definition. Here, administrators are able to define the content and layout of the application summary as well as assign it to one or more sub-products.
For more information on defining the application summary for a loan application, see the Workspace Summary section within Loan Application Types topic.
For more information on defining the application summary for an account application, see the Workspace Summary section within the Account Application Types topic.
