How it works
Every time the integration detects a loan was modified it performs the following on the loan
- If Encompass has no loan officer
- nothing is done
- Queries Blend for the current loan officer
- If Encompass and Blend do match
- nothing is done
- If Encompass and Blend do not match
- attempts to update the loan officer role in Blend
- updates the Encompass log with the result of the attempt
- if the loan officer does not exist in Blend
- attempts to remove the current loan officer in Blend making it "Unassigned"
- updates the Encompass log with the result of the attempt
Updating the loan officer directly in Blend is not supported by this process.
Override Loan Officer Email (1407)
For cases when the Encompass loan officer's email doesn't match the Blend loan officer's email, CX.MI.BLEND.LO.EMAIL can be used to provide the correct email address that matches the loan officer's email in Blend.
- Add this custom field to Encompass
Documentation on custom fields can be found from Ellie Mae here - Write a business rule that populates this field with the correct loan officer email.

Configure business rule for incorrect LO in Blend
If you would like to build a business rule to prevent disclosing on loans where the LO is incorrect in Blend do the following.
- Add this custom field to Encompass
CX.MI.BLEND.LO.EMAIL.LASTUPDDocumentation on custom fields can be found from Ellie Mae here - Write a business rule that, depending on exactness requirements, does one of the following
- fails if 1407 does not equal CX.MI.BLEND.LO.EMAIL.LASTUPD
- fails if 1407 does not start with CX.MI.BLEND.LO.EMAIL.LASTUPD
This business rule will protect against the following issues- Loan Officer does not exist in Blend
- Encompass, Blend or Mace Innovations connectivity issues
- CX.MI.BLEND.LO.EMAIL.LASTUPD max length is not large enough for loan officer's email (depends on how the business rule is written)
Documentation on business rules can be found from Ellie Mae here
CX.MI.BLEND.LO.EMAIL.LASTUPD (if it exists) is updated based on the following
- If the integration successfully updates the loan officer in Blend
- will update CX.MI.BLEND.LO.EMAIL.LASTUPD to the loan officer's email if the loan officer's email does not start with the current value of CX.MI.BLEND.LO.EMAIL.LASTUPD
This avoids spamming in the case the max length of CX.MI.BLEND.LO.EMAIL.LASTUPD is not large enough to hold the whole email address
- updates the Encompass log with the result of updating CX.MI.BLEND.LO.EMAIL.LASTUPD
- will update CX.MI.BLEND.LO.EMAIL.LASTUPD to the loan officer's email if the loan officer's email does not start with the current value of CX.MI.BLEND.LO.EMAIL.LASTUPD
- If the integration is unable to update the loan officer in Blend for any reason
- attempts to clear CX.MI.BLEND.LO.EMAIL.LASTUPD
- updates the Encompass log with the result of updating CX.MI.BLEND.LO.EMAIL.LASTUPD
This strategy takes the approach that most of the time everything works but in the event it doesn't due to the issues listed above, it is better to have false positives rather than have false negatives. This will ensure a loan can never be disclosed without Blend having the correct loan officer.
Updating the loan officer directly in Blend is not supported by this process.
