Adding and Editing

Easy Access ships with the most commonly used Loan Types for each credit bureau. There might come a time, though, when you need to add an additional Loan Type or change an existing Loan Type. You can Add / Edit Loan Types in the Bureau Default section of the Setup.

Just click on the Add button to add a new type or the Edit button to edit an existing type. You will be prompted for a Description and the unique Loan Type you want to enter. The Loan Type must be a valid Bureau Loan Type or T- Keyword. The Description can be anything that describes the Loan Type you are entering.

note Descriptions are entered for reference only and appear in the Loan Type List.
