3402 Disabling the Finalize HMDA data and lock screen check box

To prevent unauthorized users from selecting or clearing the Finalize HMDA data and lock screen check box on the HMDA Reporting screen, create a disable field rule to specify users who have access.

 

To create a disable fields rule:

1. Log in to the PointCentral administration site.
2. Create the rule.

   The Add Rule screen is displayed.

    

   The Edit Rule screen is displayed for the new rule.

    

   The Definition section is expanded.

    

   As you are typing, fields that match the entry are filtered from the list.

   Important: Field ID 5183 corresponds to the Finalize HMDA data and lock screen check box. However, because the field name was changed in Point 9.7 and PointCentral updates don’t always coincide with Point updates, field updates can lag behind the Point updates. Therefore, the check box name will show as Final HMDA Loan Application Register (LAR) check box until the next PointCentral release.
