Debt Calculation Configurations

Minimum Housing Expense

This configuration allows for setup of a minimum housing expense.  When an applicant does not own their home, and the housing payment entered on the application entry is less than the minimum housing expense, we will use the minimum housing expense in monthly debt calculations.

 

 

Updated method for calculating the Monthly Rent/Mortgage Payments

Calculation of the variable “Monthly Rent/Mortgage Payments” has been updated to consider the minimum housing expense and whether or not the applicant and co-applicant live at the same address.

 

When calculating the Applicant or Co-Applicant Rent/Mortgage Payments individually:

If Housing Type is Owns, Monthly Rent/Mortgage Payments = Greater of Monthly Housing Payment from application entry and Monthly Mortgage Payments from the credit report
If Housing Type is not Owns, Monthly Rent/Mortgage Payments = the greater of (Monthly Housing Payment from application entry and Minimum Housing Expense) plus Monthly Mortgage Payments from the credit report

 

When calculating the combined Rent/Mortgage Payments:

If Housing Type for both (Applicant and Co-Applicant) is Owns, Monthly Rent/Mortgage Payments = Greater of combined Monthly Housing Payments from application entry and combined Monthly Mortgage Payments from the credit reports
If Housing Type for only one subject is Owns, Monthly Rent/Mortgage Payments = Greater of (Monthly Housing Payment from application entry of applicant who Owns and Combined Monthly Mortgage Payments from the credit reports) plus the greater of (Monthly Housing Payment from application entry of applicant who does not Own and Minimum Housing Expense)
If Housing Type for both (Applicant and Co-Applicant) is not Owns and addresses match, Monthly Rent/Mortgage Payments = the greater of (Combined Monthly Housing Payment from application entry and Minimum Housing Expense) plus Combined Monthly Mortgage Payments from the credit reports
If Housing Type for both (Applicant and Co-Applicant) is not Owns and the addresses do NOT match, Monthly Rent/Mortgage Payments = the greater of (Applicant’s Monthly Housing Payment from application entry and Minimum Housing Expense) plus the greater of (Co-Applicant’s Monthly Housing Payment from application entry and Minimum Housing Expense) plus Combined Monthly Mortgage Payments from the credit reports

 

New Loan Payment Calculation Method

This configuration adds options for determining how the loan payment will be calculated.  The default (and current method) is Term Loan.    The two new options of “Interest Only” and “Percent of Balance” have been added in preparation for support of the CUDL LOS – Lending 360.

 

 

Calculation of the variable “New Loan Payment” has been updated to consider the payment calculation method.

Term Loan (the default method)

((Approved Loan Amount * (Approved Rate/12)) / (1 – (1 + PIR)^(-Approved Term))

PIR = Periodic Interest Rate (APR / # of periods per year)

Interest Only

Max of:

o(Approved Loan Amount * Approved Rate) / 12
oNew Loan Calculation Minimum Amt

Percent of Balance

Max of:

o(Approved Loan Amount * % of Balance)
oNew Loan Payment Calculation Minimum Amount

 

 

Payment Calculation Rules for Student Loans and Authorized User Trades

These configurations allow a lender to determine if deferred student loans and authorized user trades will be included in the calculation of total monthly payments.

 

We have also included rules for calculating the payment on student loans when the monthly payment is not reported on the credit report.  The rule for calculating the payment is applicable to any student loan where the payment is not reported, not just deferred student loans.

 

 

oDefault setting for authorized user trades is Yes/checked.  By default, these trades are included in monthly debt calculations.
oDefault setting for deferred student loans is No/Unchecked.  By default, these trades are not included in monthly debt calculations.

 

 

 

 

Other Product Setup Enhancements

 

Configuration of Lender Owned Trades

These configurations allow lenders to identify their own trades.  Trades with the subscriber codes input here will be used in calculating lender specific variables. Lender Total Unsecured Credit and Number of Lender Trades Opened in Last XX Months are the new variables added in this release that work in conjunction with these configurations.

 

 

 

Allow Decline via Decision Custom Rules

Lenders can setup custom decision rules to automatically decline an application.

oAdded category “Approve/Refer to Decline”.  Applications with a temporary decision of Approve or Refer will be set to Decline when these rules are true.

 

 

Loan Amount – LTV Adjustments

We added options for Loan-To-Value cutoff calculation method.  This allows selection of the LTV calculation that will be used to determine the maximum loan amount.

 

 

oThe default selection is “Loan Amount / Vehicle Value”.

 

Copy a Custom Rule from One Product to another Product

This enhancement allows a custom rule to be copied from one product and pasted in the same section of another product.  NOTE:  Copy of a matrix is already available.

 

 

 

oSelect a rule
oClick “Copy” button
oOr right click and select Copy

 

oNavigate to a different product, same section, click paste

oFrom here, the copied rule can be saved as is, modified, or deleted.

 

Security Administration Enhancements

 

Any user can now update his/her own user information

A Decision Manager user can now change the following information of their own user account:  Title, First Name, and Last Name.

oEmail cannot be changed.

 

 

 

 

 

 

New process for unlock and reset of user passwords

Instead of the old method of the Administrator actually typing in a temporary password for a user who has locked their password, the new process simply has the Administrator send the user an email with instructions on how to reset his/her own password.  The user account is automatically unlocked when the password is reset.

 

oWhen the Administrator clicks “Edit” for a selected user, they then have the option to “Send Password Reset”.  

 

oBelow is an example of the email that will get sent to the user.
