Weekly Technology Improvement Series:
Data “Writeback” in MCTlive!
Published 9/24/2021
Looking to conduct your “write backs” from the MCTlive! platform?
Our Commitment Tracker Tab confirms come in via API or are uploaded by investors.
All that information is organized and displayed on a loan level in the commitment tracker.
You can initiate, preview, and confirm data write back to your LOS.
We conduct error checking to catch things such as duplicate sends or missing data to prevent mistakes.
