Soft Credit Pull

Enable this feature by going to Pipeline--> Soft Credit Pulls. Once the feature is enabled for your account, that's where you can see a pipeline view of all soft credit pulls. A soft credit pull can be ran directly from the soft credit pipeline or inside a loan file under the Quick or full app tab. Each user (back office, branch, loan officer, or broker) will need permission enabled if you want them to use the soft credit pull feature.

See here under user profile--> Permission section:

NOTE: The feature is currently free of charge. The vendor (Acqualify) providing this service subsidizes the cost by offering credit restoration services to any customers that do not meet your credit threshold. You can set the threshold to any score you want. They will call & e-mail the customer to offer credit restoration which cost around $75-$175/Mo depending on the plan.

🚧

FYI

You can run the soft credit every 30 days. So if you try to resubmit the report, you will be prompted with an error.

The required fields to run soft credit are: first & last name, address, phone, E-mail & Date of birth. Sometimes the quick app will not have DOB or address fields present, so use the full app tab.

Credit Screening located under Quick/Full App

If information is not provided correctly or system cannot find information, you will receive this error message.
