Adding a Stipulations

Stipulations may be added to an application automatically via rules or manually within the Stipulations panel.

Automatic

System administrators have the ability to author rules within the Stipulation category that determine the stipulations which are automatically added to an application, if the defined conditions are met. Once defined, these rules are assigned to applicable sub-products.

Stipulation rules execute when the Process Stipulation Rules action is triggered by a corresponding event. All stipulation rules assigned to the application type execute as Event Processing does not allow selection of specific stipulation rules.

If an automated stipulation has already been waived or met, it is not removed when the action is triggered

 For more information on stipulations assigned by rules, please see the Rules Management section.

Manual

Add a stipulation by clicking the Add button within the Stipulations panel. A new row is created in the Stipulations grid. Clicking within the Stipulation column populates the stipulation drop-down list. Select the desired stipulation.

To enter a user-defined stipulation, select the “Other” stipulation. When Other is selected, the Other Description column must also be completed.

After the stipulation is selected, click the Required For column to indicate whether the stipulation must be met or cleared prior to the application’s approval or disbursement.

Users may assign a stipulation to one or more security groups, thus enabling only the users in the specified group to take action on the stipulation.
Stipulations can be automatically assigned to security groups by using rules. For more information on assigning stipulations to security groups, please see the related How To Guide.

Finalize the addition of the stipulation by saving the screen.

A value for Required For and Applies to must be specified for each stipulation. If a stipulation does not contain a value for the Required For or Applies To field, a Validation error is received upon saving the screen that includes the Stipulation Panel.
In order for a user to be able to assign an Applies To value for a stipulation, the applicable Stipulation permissions must be set to Change for the user, and editability of the Application.Stipulations.AppliesToId field must also be allowed at the stage of the application.

Adding Multiple Stipulations

To add multiple situations at once, click . The Add Multiple Stipulations pop-up window appears. The Applies To drop-down in the top of the window identifies whether the stipulations are being applied for documents, or the approval or disbursement of an account or loan application. This drop-down defaults to the type of application in progress, such as Loan or Account.

When a loan application requires an account decision, and/or includes one or more account products, the Applies To drop-down defaults to a blank value and requires the user to classify the stipulations as Account or Loan by selecting an option from the drop-down list.  

Select the check boxes that correspond with the desired stipulations to add them to the application. To select all stipulations, click the check box in the top of the Add Multiple Stipulations grid.

When adding multiple stipulations to a loan application including an account decision and/or account products, stipulations must be added separately for the account and loan. For example, if Proof of Identification and Personal Reference are required for the disbursement of both the loan and account, the Add Multiple functionality must be used twice to apply the stipulations to the loan and the account separately.
Users are unable to simultaneously add multiple stipulations and assign security groups. Once multiple stipulations have been assigned, users must manually edit the security group for each condition.

Once all the desired stipulations have been selected, click OK. The selected stipulations populate in the Stipulations panel.
