The document provides an overview and instructions for Release III of the RLTP training. It describes the new standardized commitments functionality, including the ability to stage commitments, select clauses, preview commitments, and assign deals for DCA approval. It also reviews the deal workflow statuses and tasks, such as completing the initial contact task, application review, and potential additional tasks like AML reviews that can be triggered. Examples are provided of what would happen if a politically exposed person is identified, and exercises walk through various steps like assigning a deal for DCA approval and the DCA approval workflow.

Editor's Notes
RLTP will result in greater controls, improved efficiencies and provide the necessary tools to help you work as effectively as possible
While this slide outlines the scope of the May 15 release, each training session is tailored to a particular group and focuses on the items that each group requires in the context of their work
Elaboration of some items will be communicated via release notes
[If a slide like this is considered helpful, it needs to be built out more]
First thing to know regarding Status 10 is that U.S. addresses will now be ingested via Filogix, meaning that U.S. addresses can also be validated in any address field in SAM
Two new internal tracking items will also be showing in Status 10: Initial Contact and Application Review
Initial Contact needs to be completed at Status 10 and Application Review needs to be completed at Status 20
The Standardized Commitments will also need to be staged at Status 20
Finally, DCA approval needs to be both requested and received at Status 20; the deal cannot be moved to Status 30 without DCA approval
There is not change happening at Status 30 for Originators, other than you will continue to see tracking items populated under Internal conditions
1 â A timer that shows remaining time of calculations of key ratios
2 â Internal Tasks are populated
FOR INFORMATION IF ASKED:
We removed the document counts (submitted, in review, approved) that were previously in the conditions section to increase performance. Youâll notice that the tracking items functionality is much more responsive now that we are no longer making the call to HomeVault in order to pull the count.
When the icon for each of the categories is clicked, the user is brought to HomeVault with the corresponding category filters set.
There is a new button on the conditions panel called Tracking Summary
By clicking on it you see an overview of the status of all tracking items pertaining to the deal
You see the Status of the deal
You see a journey map for the deal
You see an overview of all tracking items [to be confirmed: can hover over to see time and date stamps]
When you open the Internal Tasks you will notice that there are two tasks automatically added at Status 10: Application Review and Initial Contact
Note that you cannot move the deal to Status 20 until Initial Contact has been completed and changed to green status
Letâs review some best practices in relation to First Contact
Make sure to have reviewed the deal before the Initial contact is made to the broker
Have the Application Review panel open when the call takes place and immediately capture relevant items and notes; this is a best practice that feeds directly into the 5Cs
Before you wrote notes on a form, but now you use the Application Review; the form does not go away, but it is much shorter, and there is no duplication with the information being sought in the Application Review [get new form from Rob Best]
Immediately change the Initial Contact tracking item to green upon the completion of the call; donât delay updating the tracking item long after the call has been made.
Whether you reach the broker or not, put a note in External Notes to the effect that initial contact was attempted or made
The Application Review has six main sections
There is key information pertaining to the deal and the client; the information is generated from the application, not the bureau
Know Youth Client questionnaire: yes to any of these questions will automatically trigger another task; even if you were to change the answer to No at a later time, the tasks will persist pertaining to High Risk Employment and PEP [confirm with Frank]
The five Cs; the question marks will provide hyperlinks to the guidelines in regards to the five Cs.
Action buttons:
Submit indicates a completed task and will update the traffic lights accordingly; this is an attestation of completion and functions like a signature (and therefore not a need for a paper signature) it is time stamped and tracked
Save allows the user to save without submitting yet
Close allows the users to close the window without submitting or saving
Additional key information pertaining to the deal and client
An icon that opens up the Notes section
Again, this Application Review page means that you will be using a much shorter Loan Application Work Sheet, and there is no duplicate between the two
[Whatâs the answer to the question: why is there still a hard copy; why wouldn't it all be on this Application Review page]
Existing notes can be reviewed here, and it is defaulted to all notes; can use the dropdown at the top to see specific note categories; can also search for key words in the search field
A note can be entered at the bottom, by first using the dropdown to select a note category, and then write the note and click the arrow to submit
We will now do an exercise related to what we have reviewed so far
Hereâs a recap of the main points highlighted in the videos
Letâs do an exercise related to Standardized Commitments
Internal conditions will have a line for Approvals at Status 20 (if itâs not there try to promote it to Status 30 and it should appear)
SAM will tell you what final level of approval you need
Click on the man-like icon to get a pop-up that allows you to assign the DCA approval to a specific person
You have the ability to assign it to someone at a lower level (your direct manager) to review; they can then reassign it to the higher level that needs to approve the deal
When a deal is sent to DCA for approval, the deal locks
All data is greyed out, but still available for viewing
If a condition needs to be added, the DCA approver can reject it and write a corresponding note
The Originator will NOT receive a Notification when the DCA approver has approved or rejected the deal; the approver needs to notify the Originator, for instance via email
After a DCA approval has been received, move the deal to Status 30 and proceed with issuing the Commitment
Letâs do an exercise to assign a deal to DCA approval
Letâs review a bit more what happens if a you say yes to a question on KYC, i.e. PEP
An Approval has been added, but you do not assign it until youâve completed the associated tasks first [are there controls around that?]
First complete Task Forms: AML EDD, Complete AML Form, Compliance Review
Can indicate whether the task is Complete, Pending or Incomplete
Tabs to access information on the different components of the deal
Shows the Reason Code for the task
Shows who is assigned to the task
Can drag and drop a document associated with the task
Can view and add other related tasks
Tracking Summary and Refresh buttons
Comments that can be added associated with the task
[Double-check if itâs the same layout for all tasks]
This list shows what controls can be triggered at Status 20
The green are based on rules
The orange are based on the questionnaire in the Application Review
Blue is a configured control, i.e. the conditions on the Commitment that need to be fulfilled before a deal moves to Status 50
Purple is tasks that are manually added based on Compliance alerts
[Need more info on these controls]
We conclude with one more exercise
A deal in Status 20 will have an Approval item under Internal conditions
The system will tell the Originator what level of approval is needed
The Originator can still assign it to any approval level (i.e. their direct manager), but only the required approval level can actually approve it
After having assigned it to a lower level, the Originator can reassign it to the higher level that needs to approve the deal [Need to confirm this]
The names appear in the drop-down
When a deal is sent to DCA for approval, it locks
All information is available to the Originator but they cannot do anything with the deal while it is locked
You are able to search and pull up any loan within Home Trust; the other icon shows notifications
Here you can filter to see deals within a particular date range â based on tracking request date
All the column headers have either or both of the functions to order in a descending or ascending order, as well as to filter/search a key word
The Task Status shows the status of each approval item: green means that it is completed and red means that it requires an action [Check with Frank to confirm]
By clicking on any deal line, you access the details of the deal
Here you can approve or reject the deal, as well as view the deal as CAF:
NOTE: there is no Notification that tells a user that a deal has been reviewed by a DCA approver, the DCA approver will need to send an email to inform the Originator
NOTE: clicking âAcceptâ equals your signature and is your attestation that you have read everything and agree completely with the deal.
The different icons give you a view of the different details pertaining to the deal
Here you can review all notes pertaining to the deal, as well as write your own notes pertaining to pricing approval; there is not a need to provide a note if you approve the deal, but if you reject it, a note should be put in; the system does not force the user to write a note upon rejection
Allows you to see all Internal, Solicitor and Broker conditions, pertaining to the deal; you can also:
Write a note pertaining to a condition or a task
View the deal journey map
Add a tracking item
Dropdown to view specific categories of notes
Search area to look for key words in the notes
Dropdown shows Notes Categories; DCA approver only has the ability to add a note in the Pricing Approval category
Area to write the notes and submit them
You close the notes by clicking on any area outside the Notes box
[Need new screenshot as per Kymâs feedback]
Allows the user to write comment pertaining to the tracking item
Allows the user to see the details pertaining to a particular tracking item, i.e. the completed Application Review task
[Need new screenshot as per Kymâs feedback]
The highlighted button gives you access to the deal journey map, which is a view only screen
Gives you a view of the deal as a whole
